After returning from Wu Dun, Wu Shan went to the training camp everyday. Although General Wei Yuan was pleased with this, he still had doubts in his heart.
Tonight, the General's Wife and the General Wei Yuan mentioned about Wu Shan's actions today.
"Master, I have a feeling that Wu Shan has been acting weirdly. It was not surprising that he had been practicing his swordsmanship in the yard every morning ever since he had returned from Dark Dun. However, I haven't been able to see him at home for the past few days. He leaves early and returns late every day. Wu Shan was indeed a child that encouraged people to protect his family and defend his country since he was young, but now that the relationship between the Jin Country and other nations seemed quite harmonious, why would Wu Shan go to the training camp everyday? I always felt that something must have happened to him in Utopia. "
General Wei Yuan was worried too, but he did not want his wife to trouble herself.
"Madam, you are overthinking it. Wu Shan might have thought it through. Think about it, he left early and came back late to the training camp, not just for a stroll. There's nothing wrong with that. If Madam is really worried, then I will have a talk with Wu Shan tomorrow and ask him what he thinks. "
After the General's wife heard this, she calmed down a lot, "Master is right, Wu Shan has the idea of returning the favor to the Empire, after all, the Wu Family is the general for generations, if Wu Shan has any accomplishments, Wu Family can be considered as having successors."
Ever since the Jin Country was founded, the Wu Clan have always protected the borders, but they did not care about power and authority. This was also the reason why the Jin Country King trusted the Wu Clan.
On the morning of the second day, General Wei Yuan came to find Wu Shan to talk. But Wu Shan had already gone to the courtyard to practice his sword skills, leaving General Wei Yuan empty-handed.
"Where's the Young Master?"
"Master, Young Master is practicing his sword skills in the yard."
After asking about Wu Shan's whereabouts, General Wei Yuan went to the courtyard.
Wu Shan's sword danced very well, giving off the feeling of a great general, causing General Wei Yuan to feel extremely proud.
"Alright!" The General Wei Yuan could not help but clap his hands, only then did Wu Shan notice that the General Wei Yuan had been watching him practice the sword.
"Daddy is too kind." Wu Shan knew that he still had too much to learn in the area of sword techniques, so he would naturally not be complacent after hearing General Wei Yuan's praise.
"What are you saying? Since I've said that your sword art is not bad, why must you be modest?" Your swordsmanship was taught to me personally, and I can see you improving bit by bit. However, Wu Shan, what I want to tell you is, ever since you started practicing martial arts, your father has always taught you to be hasty but to be slow. I want to know why you have been so diligent in practicing martial arts these days? It's not that I think it's bad, it's just that I'm worried that your body won't be able to take it, so you don't have to be so harsh on yourself. "
"Wu Shan, I know that you have made the decision to return to your country since you were young, but there are no conflicts between the Jin Country and the surrounding countries. Why are you in such a hurry? Do you know how worried your mother was about your health? "
Wu Shan did not expect that in just a few short days, the Madam General had already started to worry about him. Indeed, these days, he had been practicing his swordplay in the courtyard before daybreak.
After hastily using the brunch, he went to the training camp for the entire day. In the past, Wu Shan would always stay at home to accompany her mother and speak with her. Wu Shan felt very sorry.
"Your son is unfilial and caused your mother to worry. Your son will personally apologize to your mother. However, father, I have seriously considered going to the battlefield. Father, you said that although the Jin Country and the surrounding countries may seem harmonious, in reality, the various countries' rulers are all eyeing the Jin Country's territories covetously. Your son is doing this in case of need, in case your son is needed at the front lines, but your son does not have the ability, you truly deserve to be part of Wu Family. "
General Wei Yuan never thought that the child in front of him would actually have such a thorough understanding of the situation in Jin Country.
"I am very pleased that you have such ambition in your heart, a man of Wu Family should have such awareness. But you must remember to speak to your mother tomorrow, in case she gets worried. " General Wei Yuan left after instructing them, leaving Wu Shan alone in the courtyard.
Ever since Xiao Yang was injured at Wu Dun, he looked as if he was relieved, but he kept thinking about that night when Xiao Yang had looked at him helplessly. If he had not heard Xiao Yang's scream, and had gone to look for her somewhere else, Wu Shan dared not imagine what would have happened.
Just as Xiu Huang had said, only by becoming strong would one be able to protect their loved one. Wu Shan knew that he still had many shortcomings, compared to Xiu Huang, he was not as calm and collected as him. Compared to Mu Chuyang, his fighting and commanding abilities were not at the stage yet, so Wu Shan felt that he was inferior in every aspect.
So he went to the training ground every day, hoping to improve himself, hoping to make himself stronger, hoping that he would have the ability to protect the person he loved.
It was not only to protect Xiao Yang, but Wu Shan was determined to accomplish something on the battlefield. At that time, he would be able to make a request to Yuwen Di to marry Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was only a palace maid by Duan Yunfei's side. No matter how much Duan Yunfei pampered and doted on her, she could not change her identity.
If Wu Shan and the General Wei Yuan proposed to marry Xiao Yang, they would definitely not agree to it. After all, their statuses were different, how could the Wu Family allow a palace maid to become the future owner of the Wu Family? But if Wu Shan were to make this request to Yuwen Di based on his military achievements, even General Wei Yuan and the rest would not be able to stop him.
Wu Shan could naturally choose to take Xiao Yang as a concubine, but Wu Shan was still unwilling to part with his. He had loved this woman for so many years, how could he be willing to only take his as a concubine? If it wasn't for the fact that he liked Xiao Yang, with Duan Yunfei's love for his, she would definitely have been able to find a good marriage with him.
It was because of this that Wu Shan felt wronged that he did not like his.
Ever since the showdown with the General Wei Yuan, Wu Shan went to the army training camp even more frequently. He even had the thought of living there, but thinking of the General's Madam's worries, he decided against it.
His days of practicing martial arts passed by very quickly, to the point that Wu Shan didn't have time to think about Xiao Yang. Wu Shan seemed to be able to see the day Xiao Yang stood in front of him in his big red wedding dress.
