The group walked towards the Rong'an Hall in the inner courtyard.
On the way, Zhao Xunyin asked Wen Wan, "Has this year's annual gift been sent to Ningzhou?"
Hearing that she was asking about her adoptive father, Wen Wan replied, "Not yet. Too many things have happened recently, and I haven't had a moment to deal with it."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xunyin sighed softly, "We're about to go to war with Bei Yan. The future is unpredictable. If you have time, spare a moment to go back and see him."
"War?" Wen Wan was startled. How had she never heard of this?
Zhao Xunyin nodded, "We only found out after seeing your Emperor Uncle."
Judging from the tone, the scale of this battle was not small.
Wen Wan felt a bit panicky, "Then I should indeed go back and visit." She added, "It's almost the New Year. I've agreed with Third Son that after Yuanbao completes the exams, we'll take the family back to the hometown to pay respects to our ancestors, using the occasion to pay a special visit."
