"kindness."
Faced with the two's actions, Zhan Wushuang felt a pang of sadness, and almost lost his smile.
"By the way, Father, when will Mother be able to leave seclusion?"
Zhan Wushuang lowered his head, eating as he casually asked, "It seems like it's been quite a while."
"Cough cough..."
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wuxin, who was drinking soup, suddenly choked.
"You child, you're even daydreaming while eating."
Seeing this, Feng Jun quickly patted Zhan Wuxin's back, said with a hint of helplessness, and then smiled and replied to Zhan Wushuang, "Everything is going well with your mother, so you don't need to worry. She will definitely let you know when she comes out of seclusion."
"kindness."
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wushuang's eyes flashed with bitterness before he continued to ask, "What about Jiang and Xizhou? Have they made any moves?"
"What, has our Shuang'er become interested in war too?"
Feng Jun did not answer, but smiled and put a piece of food on Zhan Wushuang's plate, changing the subject, "Today is New Year's Eve, let's not talk about such heavy topics, okay?"
"That's right, Shuang'er didn't think it through."
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wushuang tightened his grip on the food he was picking up, and then forced a smile.
In the time that followed, Feng Jun and Zhan Wuxin acted as if nothing had happened, constantly telling her stories and jokes from the past years that she had never been a part of.
Although Zhan Wushuang was saddened, he could only pretend not to know anything and join in the laughter.
However, her smile was genuinely strained and forced.
After finally finishing their reunion dinner, Zhan Wushuang did not stay in the palace as Feng Jun requested, but instead flew back to the Imperial Preceptor's residence.
She must work hard to cultivate!
Yes, we must strive to improve our cultivation!
Only in this way can we achieve true freedom and protect our dearest loved ones.
Zhan Wushuang knew that the main target of the Bu Jiang Dynasty this time was definitely her.
It was she who brought disaster to this country, and the Queen Mother went back to become radiant in order to protect her.
Although she was glad that someone was willing to protect her, she didn't want to just wait for others to protect her, since this whole thing started because of her. She wanted to do her part as well.
So, after Zhan Wushuang returned to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, he fell into a state of frenzied cultivation.
He used to occasionally slack off and tease Ji Fanya, but now his attitude towards cultivation is on par with that of Emperor Moyu.
Cultivation knows no time, and everyone on Jun Feijue's side was immersed in cultivation.
Meanwhile, on the border, as time passed day by day, the war became increasingly severe.
The Wuya Dynasty had a total of three lines of defense. The first and second lines were relatively far away, but if the third line of defense was breached, it would mean reaching the outskirts of the capital.
At that time, it will truly be a matter of life and death for the nation.
Although the Wuya Dynasty was stronger than the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was far weaker than the Bujiang Dynasty. Now, under the combined attack of the two countries, it was showing a trend of continuous defeat.
With border passes falling and cities lost, the battle line has been compressed to the second line of defense. If the defeats continue, the city will soon fall.
If they retreat to the third line of defense, then they will truly have no way out.
"Second Princess, if this continues, I'm afraid they'll march on the capital."
Zhan Wuchen's General's Mansion was located on the third line of defense, and sentries would arrive every moment on flying mounts to deliver the latest battle reports.
"How are the soldiers' morale?"
Although Zhan Wuchen was anxious inside, he showed no sign of it on his face.
