Nan Yan on the other side was not in a calm mood either.
Although Zhu Feng told her that all she had to do was rest and take care of her body, how could she not think about anything at a time like this
Not only the upcoming war, but more importantly—
What is the ultimate goal of Ari Silan's visit to the Si family
Even Zhu Feng began to ask, if he went out of the city today, did he meet someone or something related to Arisilan
Then, is the upcoming war also related to that incident
There seems to be a ball of numbness in my head, I can't figure it out.
"ah!"
She held her head in her hands, feeling like her head was going to explode, and fell on the bed in a dazed state, hugging the pillow, looking at the flickering candlelight on the table.
Muttering: "What the hell... our family... what...?"

Soon, the atmosphere in Prince Yan's Mansion became tense.
Although Zhu Feng didn't make an official announcement, he transferred all the troops from the Xishan Camp back to Beiping City the next day, and sent additional manpower to strengthen the defense of Beicheng.
There were frequent wars in Beiping, and the common people knew a thing or two about the military.
This situation is obviously a sign that the war is coming and preparations for the war are about to begin.
As soon as such rumors spread, the atmosphere in the entire Beiping City became tense.
Before, as the King of Yan, Zhu Feng commanded 120,000 soldiers and horses in Beiping. However, he went south to Jingnan, seized the throne, and took away most of the elite, leaving only 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers to guard Beiping. After that, he dispatched some people back.
However, not many.
In addition to this time, the number of Tainingwei brought back was no more than 50,000.
However, in the country of Tan, 200,000 troops suppressed the border.
It's not like he hasn't fought this kind of battle with disparity in strength. In the first battle that year, he underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, almost dying in the Great Wall Moat.
So this time, we must be cautious.
For the whole morning, apart from dispatching troops, he discussed with Xu Shifeng who came back from the Xishan Camp, and the leader of the Taining Guard, Ye Zheng, in the study how to defend against the enemy.
Nan Yan, of course did not dare to disturb him.
At this time, her injury has also improved a lot. The doctor said that the gauze on her hand can be removed today.
She was walking slowly on the promenade by herself, and suddenly, she heard a rushing sound from the front yard, like the sound of chopping wood, and a crying voice slowly counted: " Four hundred and eighty-five... four hundred and eighty-six..."
The voice sounded like Zhu Chengxuan.
Why is he crying
Nan Yan hurried over.
At a glance, the large courtyard was arranged as a martial arts training ground, with wooden stakes erected, and the thin Zhu Chengxuan was holding a big knife, chopping the wooden stakes one by one.
Although it was cold and he wore less clothes, he was already sweating profusely.
Tired to fall down anytime.
The chubby face was also full of grievances and exhaustion, and when he had chopped 487 knives, he couldn't help crying: "I, I can't chop anymore!"
At this time, the person who was standing aside to supervise him turned out to be Ran Xiaoyu, she said: "Your Highness can't stop."
"..."
"The emperor ordered that His Highness will split the stake five hundred times today."
"..."
"Your Highness knows the emperor's temper. If you can't do it, the emperor will punish you."
Hearing what she said, Zhu Chengxuan could only bite his lower lip aggrievedly, raised his big knife with his thin arms, and slashed at the wooden post one by one, while tears trickled down his face one by one.
