Shen Ruoyan held the jade pendant tightly in her palms.

I was surprised and confused at the same time.

At that time, Lord Shen was imprisoned. Shen Ruoyan came to Yizhou for the first time because of her father's case, sneaked into the Xue family to investigate secretly, and accidentally met the only son of the Xue family, Xue Jinbao.

Thinking of that child, a bitter smile appeared on Shen Ruoyan's lips.

His father was greedy for money to provide disaster relief, causing the people of Yizhou to suffer misery. He really deserved it, but from Xue Jinbao's perspective, he was the culprit who caused his family to be destroyed.

Time flies so fast, more than five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

By a quick calculation, Xue Jinbao should have grown into a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.

Since the fall of the Xue family, Xue Jinbao has lost his asylum and even became a beggar for a time. It was Qin'er who accidentally discovered him and gave him to a farmer for adoption.

Shen Ruoyan remembered that she had a quarrel with Lu Yan because of Xue Jinbao.

After He Mang took Xue Jinbao away, he didn't know where he finally placed him.

Holding the jade pendant, Shen Ruoyan found He Mang who was treating Lu Yan and asked straight to the point: "He Mang, I have one thing to ask you.

Do you remember that when you left last time, I entrusted a little boy to you, but I don’t know where the child went in the end? "

He Mang stopped and rolled his eyes several times before he remembered: "Oh, you're talking about him.

At first, that kid thought I was a child trafficker. I tried to talk to him, but he still looked suspicious and ran away several times along the way.

I saw that this kid liked to run away so much, so I just found an escort agency and asked him to be an apprentice. "

"The Escort Bureau?" Shen Ruoyan thought of the horse teams that helped transport supplies. They were probably members of the Escort Bureau. However, Xue Jinbao was just a helpless young man. How could he mobilize so many people to work for him?

Even though she was full of doubts, there was a faint voice in Shen Ruoyan's heart.

The voice told her firmly that these cavalry teams must be related to Xue Jinbao.

"Then after sending him to the escort agency, did you pay attention to him?" Shen Ruoyan asked.

"After that, I...well, I encountered some difficult things, so I forgot about them." He Mang smiled sheepishly at Shen Ruoyan, brushed off that part of his past, and then asked, "By the way. , you asked this suddenly, but what’s wrong with that child?

I can ask someone to go back and inquire, but it may take some time. "

Shen Ruoyan shook her head, gently caressed the ingot on the jade pendant with her fingers, and expressed her guess, "It doesn't have to be so troublesome.

I suspect that the horse teams that recently helped us transport supplies were sent by that child. "

"No way." After hearing this, He Mang instinctively thought it was impossible, "How could he be so capable?"

Shen Ruoyan also felt that maybe she was thinking too much, and just as she was about to speak, a weak voice came over: "Ayan may be right."

"Ah?" He Mang answered carelessly, "How old is that kid? He hasn't even grown all his hair yet. Why..."

He Mang was suddenly stunned as he spoke. When he realized who the voice came from, he saw Shen Ruoyan staring straight at the person on the bed, her eyes filled with tears.

Lu Yan lay there with a pale face, his eyes fell gently on Shen Ruoyan, and he gave her a comforting smile.

Shen Ruoyan pursed her lips tightly, and big tears fell uncontrollably.

She almost thought she was going to lose Lu Yan.

Worry, fear, helplessness...

These days, she forced herself to be strong, not daring to think about what she would do if Lu Yan really had a problem.

Shen Ruoyan told herself that she must not fall. She must protect Lu Yan, the city that he saved with his life.

Facing the cruelty of war for the first time, Shen Ruoyan endured all the hesitation and fear. She was extremely cautious all day long and did not dare to relax at all, for fear that one of her mistakes in decision-making would bring disaster to the people of the entire city.

Now, Lu Yan finally woke up.

Shen Ruoyan felt her whole body relax.

"Ayan, thank you for your hard work." Lu Yan raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Shen Ruoyan's cheek.

But when he woke up, he was still very weak. He only raised his wrist a few inches before losing his strength and hanging weakly beside the bed.

Shen Ruoyan wiped away her tears randomly, put her hand into Lu Yan's palm, felt the regular beating under the other person's skin, and smiled happily.

A heart hanging in the air has a place to rest.

After Lu Yan woke up, he recovered quickly and was able to get out of bed and move around within a few days.

Lu Yan wanted to immediately put on his armor and go into battle, but Shen Ruoyan glared at him fiercely. He immediately showed a flattering smile, quickly took off his half-wearing armor, and stayed in the room to rest.

The cavalry team sent a lot of supplies one after another. Shen Ruoyan remembered the previous topic about Xue Jinbao, found a time when Lu Yan was not busy, and asked her doubts: "You said last time that I might have guessed it right, but what's the matter? in accordance with?"

Lu Yan pulled the person into his arms and started talking.

It turned out that Lu Yan's people did not withdraw after escorting He Mang and Xue Jinbao back to the south, but had been secretly protecting Xue Jinbao.

After so many years, Shen Ruoyan had long forgotten the matter, but Lu Yan often received letters from his subordinates, so he knew Xue Jinbao's growth very well.

"Xue Jinbao is the only Miao Miao of the Xue family. He was groomed as a successor since he was a child, and he knows a bit about business in his bones.

He was quick-witted and willing to endure hardships. He was highly regarded in the escort agency and it didn't take long for him to figure out the ropes.

When he was 16 years old, he left the escort agency and contacted the martial arts school that his father had funded.

Those who studied martial arts valued loyalty the most. Even if the Xue family fell, they always remembered the help the Xue family had given them, and they all followed Xue Jinbao's orders. "Lu Yan said a long series of words and took a moment to calm down.

Seeing this, Shen Ruoyan immediately took out the warm ginseng soup and said, "Drink some to moisten your throat."

Just as Lu Yan drank a bowl of concoction, he saw Shen Ruoyan bringing him another bowl of soup and touched his bloated belly.

Shen Ruoyan found it funny, remembering the scene in the previous life when Lu Yan forced her to drink medicine, and she suddenly felt a sense of revenge.

He brought the soup bowl to Lu Yan's mouth and coaxed softly: "Husband, drink this bowl of soup quickly."

Lu Yan's eyes were in a trance. When he came back to his senses, he opened his mouth unconsciously and could only take a big mouthful of hot soup.

"Okay, let's continue talking." Shen Ruoyan put down her soup bowl with satisfaction and urged, "Xue Jinbao found those people from the martial arts school, but what happened next?

What happened next? "
