Jun Wu Xie looked at her uncle a little awkwardly. She had not expected that she would sleep for so long.
"Alright, I'm just teasing you. Hurry up and eat, don't starve." Jun Qing shook his head with a laugh and sat down at the side. Jun Wu Xie then picked up her bowl and chopsticks and began to eat slowly.
After two mouthfuls to fill her stomach, she raised her head to look at Jun Qing.
"Uncle, did you need anything from me?"
Jun Qing replied: "Nothing much. Didn't you tell your grandfather that you wanted to see the Soul Jade? I heard the news and had intended to bring it over to you but I did not expect you to be asleep when I came. I had someone stand guard at the door and after you woke up, I came looking for you, saving you from having to run a few more steps. "
The Rui Lin Army soldiers standing guard outside the door had been arranged by Jun Qing early in the morning. He knew that Jun Wu Xie must be exhausted and would need to bathe and change her clothes after she woke up, and she would need to eat.
"Hmm, where is the Soul Jade?" Jun Wu Xie understood her uncle's thoughtfulness and the moment the Soul Calming Jade was mentioned, she did not even care about her meal and immediately asked about the Soul Calming Jade.
Jun Qing flicked a finger at her head. "It's with me and it won't be lost. You just have to watch your stomach. If you don't finish the rice in your bowl, I will not show you the Soul Jade."
In a year's time, Jun Wu Xie had grown quite a bit taller, but her body was still very slender. Having not seen her for a year, Jun Qing's heart ached for her when he saw her frail body. If not for the war, he wished he could get his men to bring all the delicacies before Jun Wu Xie, to nourish her.
"Yes ….." Jun Wu Xie touched the spot on her forehead where she had been flicked. It did not hurt, but instead warmed her heart.
It had been a long time since she had experienced the warmth of family and even the tiniest bit of warmth, made her cherish it.
Seeing Jun Wu Xie bury her head in her food again, Jun Qing did not really ask her to not care about anything. She was the Fire Country's Emperor and even if he did not tell her about the situation outside, she would still worry about it.
"The Fire Country's army has already set up camp outside the city and the Qi Kingdom's soldiers and citizens within the city are busily repairing the damage done to the city. Food will be sent to the Fire Country's main camp every day. This was the first time I had come into contact with the Fire Country's army and I must say, the Fire Country's army is rather well trained. With so many of them outside the city, there was not the slightest bit of chaos, and they had not come into conflict with the citizens within the city. "Jun Qing gave a simple summary of the time that Jun Xie had been unconscious, and the situation after the battle.
The Fire Country's army had been very well behaved under Lei Chen and Lei Xi's control. Not only had they not caused any trouble for them, they had even taken the initiative to ask for help in repairing the city walls. Of course, all that initiative could very well have been due to Jun Xie.
But Jun Qing was already very grateful.
"Soldiers are supposed to be like this. What kind of man are you to bully the weak? The Rui Lin Army has always been like this. "Jun Wu Xie mumbled as she ate.
When Long Qi heard this, a trace of pride surfaced in his eyes.
Jun Qing could not help but laugh as he shook his head. "You've already become the Fire Country's Emperor, how can you say things like that?"
"The Fire Country's army might be highly disciplined, but the Rui Lin Army isn't too shabby either. They are considered to be a highly disciplined army and I am just stating the facts as they stand." Jun Wu Xie did not have any intention of comparing the two countries' armies and was just making a casual remark.
When Jun Wu Xie had finally finished all the rice in her bowl, Jun Qing then took out the Soul Jade he always carried with him.
