Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
While Xue Wufu was eating garlic bread to fill his stomach, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sanfu did not just sit around and watch him eat. Instead, they helped Commander Fan and the cooks wash the dishes.
The cooks were at the drill ground to play music during the competition, so there were still many bowls that had not been washed.
However, Commander Fan and the others have a great time washing the dishes after the competition even though they have to stay back late.
After washing the dishes, it was time for Xue Wufu to go wash up and sleep. Although Xue Wufu still wanted to be with the two children, he also wanted to abide by the discipline of the military camp. In the end, discipline triumphed over feelings.
Seeing Wufu disappear and return to his camp, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan felt slightly emotional.
Wufu’s personality hadn’t changed at all, but some things had changed. The military camp was indeed a place where people could be trained into shape be it physically or mentally.
Xue Sanfu was a commander and lived in a tent by himself. No one would check if he was asleep. However, considering that Xue Sanfu had to get up early for training tomorrow, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan did not keep him up. They even lied that they needed to go and find Shao Shuting. Only then did Sanfu agree to go back to wash up and sleep.
Seeing that Sanfu had also left, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan casually strolled around the military camp again before planning to wash up and go to bed as well.
Their tents were adjacent to each other.
When he came to the side of their tent, Xue Yan stopped in his tracks. He lowered his head and thought for a moment. He still suppressed his voice and said to Jiang Yue in a hushed tone, “Sanfu won’t listen to me… I’m worried… I want to arrange for a few people to stay by Sanfu’s side to protect him. Wufu is still a small soldier. If there is no war, he won’t have to leave the military camp and will be very safe here. However, Sanfu is different. He can leave the military camp anytime. Now that he knows 1 am the Crown Prince, he will work harder to climb the ranks. If there is anything that the military camp needs help resolving, he will offer to help. This way, Sanfu would be in even more danger.”
Jiang Yue nodded. “We should arrange for a few people to do that, but shouldn’t we inform Sanfu?”
Sanfu was so vigilant, that once he discovered that there was something
wrong with the people around him, he would suspect that those people were spies. He would always be on guard against those people and wouldn’t let them follow him.
Xue Yan naturally also thought of this point and also nodded. “He’ll agree to it to reassure us,” she said after a pause.
Jiang Yue thought so too.
Although Sanfu was a man of few words and had his own beliefs, he was very considerate of their feelings.
“How about tomorrow, we will wake up early and tell Sanfu about this.” Jiang Yue said.
“Yes.
The next day, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan woke up as early as the soldiers in the military camp got up to train. After they woke up, the first thing they did was to look for Sanfu.
Otherwise, they would have to wait until the morning training was over before they could tell him the news. At that time, Wufu would come to look for them. If he was there, it would be inappropriate to tell Sanfu about such matters.
As they expected, when Sanfu heard that they wanted to arrange a few people to protect him, his reaction was not very big. He only glanced at them and replied calmly. In his mind, he wanted to calm the hearts of the two children; so he agreed.
Then, Sanfu went to train.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan only saw Sanfu and Wufu again while they were having breakfast in the military camp..
