The Wu King felt his hair stand on end under Jun Xian's stare. When Jun Xian was young, he had killed many enemies and was known as the most valiant general of the Qi Kingdom. Even though he had grown old, but the borders of the neighbouring countries still carried the name of Jun Xian.
Being stared at by Jun Xian, Wu Wang subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
"You don't have to worry about my Lin Palace's affairs." Seeing that everyone had stopped laughing, Jun Xian retracted his gaze.
"Cough, I'm just concerned about the future of the country." Seeing that Jun Xian did not show his anger, Wu Wang finally understood.
The valiant general of the past was now old, a hero past his prime. He was a tiger without teeth!
"Oh yes, I heard that your Jun Wu Xie hasn't been out recently? Sigh, she's still young, even if she and Mo Xuan Fei are not fated to be together, there's no need to be so upset. She should come out for some fresh air, she shouldn't be cooped up at home. " Realising that Jun Xian was no longer the ferocious tiger of the past, Wu Wang no longer had any scruples. After talking about Jun Qing, he brought up Jun Wu Xie to make things difficult for Jun Xian.
Jun Xian glared at Wu Wang.
Wu Wang smiled and said, "Next month is the Crown Prince's birthday. His Majesty has asked me and the Ministry of Rites to make the arrangements. I see that your Wu Xie has been cooped up for so long, it's time for her to come out and relax. His Majesty has also said that he feels that he owes Wu Xie a lot for the engagement, so he specially invited her to the banquet."
"Got it." Jun Xian did not want to waste any more time with these people and left quickly after a few words.
Looking at Jun Xian's disheveled back, Wu Wang's laughter grew even more unbridled.
"Still putting on airs? Does he really think he's still the Lin Palace? "Wu Wang snorted mockingly as the ministers around him chimed in.
"Lin Palace can't see things clearly. Jun Gu is dead, that Jun Qing won't be able to live much longer. Lin Palace only has him and that incompetent lass, Jun Wu Xie. How long more can he lead the Rui Lin Army?" One of the ministers laughed.
"Come on, he still thinks he's the Grand Marshal of the army. Isn't it just two dead sons? Hehe. " Wu Wang snorted a few times and did not say anything more. This group of people were so focused on adding insult to injury that they did not notice that when Jun Xian left, his back had lost all the vicissitudes of the past. He was tall and straight, like a hero who stood in the middle of an army of ten thousand years ago.
Jun Xian returned to the Lin Palace with a sullen face. Today's incident was a common occurrence for him. When he reached home, the expression on Jun Xian's face immediately softened. Even before he reached the inner courtyard, he could smell the familiar fragrance of herbs.
Jun Wu Xie took two pots of herbs that she had just concocted and walked out of her courtyard, coincidentally bumping into Jun Xian who had just returned.
"Grandfather." Jun Wu Xie saw Jun Xian, nodded her head and called out softly.
"You're messing around with these things again. Are you tired of staying at home? It's the Crown Prince's birthday next month, how about I bring you along? "Jun Xian asked with a smile.
"Alright." Jun Wu Xie agreed without thinking too much about it.
Jun Xian smiled and patted her shoulder. Without saying anything, he went back to his room to change his clothes.
Jun Wu Xie stood in the same spot, watching as Jun Xian's back disappeared before she continued to walk towards Jun Qing's courtyard.
"Meow ~" The little black cat rubbed itself against Jun Wu Xie's calf as it walked.
Grandfather's expression was a little strange.
"Mm." Jun Wu Xie noticed it too.
"Meow."
Something to do with the Crown Prince's birthday?
