Nan Yuan forced herself to hold back the tears in her eyes. She looked at Nan Jiamu in disbelief and asked, "You, you are not Nan Mo?"

Could it be that she recognized the wrong person?

But he looks exactly like the brother in my mind!

Nan Jiamu shook his head, looked at Nan Yuan carefully, and asked uncertainly, "Are you Xiao Yuan'er?"

"I am... I am Xiao Yuan'er..." Nan Yuan opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, tears started to flow down her face.

She found her brother. She was just trying her luck, but she didn't expect that she actually found him.

“Cousin, get up first and don’t get so close to him.” Xie Luochen, who was squeezed into a corner, finally struggled out, grabbed Nan Yuan, and separated her from Nan Jiamu: “It’s not certain whether he is my cousin, but he has an epidemic and we must be careful!”

Nan Yuan shook her head and looked at Nan Jiamu. Although he had changed his name and looked slightly different from five years ago, Nan Yuan had a hunch that he must be her brother.

He can even call her by her nickname, how could he not be her brother.

Nan Jiamu struggled to stand up and looked at Nan Yuan deeply.

"Xie Luochen, take her away." Shen Zhaixing scolded, "Do you know where this place is? Don't make trouble here!"

"Okay, I'll take her away right now." Xie Luochen replied.

"Cousin, I'll take you away first." He whispered in Nan Yuan's ear, "I'll keep an eye on this place. If he is my cousin, I will definitely not let anyone wrongly accuse him."

Nan Yuan is not an unreasonable person. She also knows that if she stays here any longer, she will only cause trouble.

So she nodded and followed Xie Luochen out of the tent.

"Sir Shen, you are the highest-ranking official in charge of disaster relief this time, right?" Nan Jiamu dusted himself off and saluted respectfully towards Shen Zhaixing.

Shen Zhaixing glanced at Nan Jiamu, who was covered in blood and dirt, with a little disdain, and nodded lightly: "Yes."

Nan Jiamu took two steps towards Shen Zhaixing and whispered something in his ear.

"Don't talk nonsense!" General Li was shocked and said to Shen Zhaixing, "Sir Shen, don't listen to his nonsense. He just got the disease and won't live for many days, so he deliberately made life difficult for everyone. You must not believe him!"

"General Li, why are you so nervous? I just asked Lord Shen to take care of himself. Can't you even say that?" Nan Jiamu smiled at General Li provocatively.

"you……"

General Li was furious, but because Shen Zhaixing was there, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous and could only swallow his anger.

He turned to Shen Zhaixing and said, "Sir Shen, this person has evil intentions and is infected with the disease. You must not have any contact with him!"

Shen Zhaixing curled his lips and looked at General Li: "General Li, don't worry, I know what's going on."

"Then...you may hand this man over to me for disposal. I promise to handle it impartially." General Li requested with a bow.

Shen Zhaixing patted his sleeves and stretched out his tone: "Then——"

Just when General Li thought he had victory.

Shen Zhaixing changed his words and said, "Imprison Nan Jiamu. My people will take care of his food, clothing, shelter, and three meals a day."

"Sir, no, this person..."

"If I remember correctly, General Li's nephew also seemed to have had close contact with Nan Jiamu, right?" Shen Zhaixing turned his gaze to Li Youning: "Then detain Li Youning together to prevent the spread of the epidemic."

"grown ups……"

General Li wanted to say something, but Nan Jiamu interrupted him and said, "Lord Shen is wise!"

"That's it."

"Someone, take Nan Jiamu and Li Youning away together!"

"Uncle, save me!" Li Youning had no time to care about his own injuries and hurriedly asked General Li for help.

"Grandson, come with grandpa!" Nan Jiamu grinned, grabbed Li Youning's collar and pulled him out.

General Li just closed his eyes tightly and pretended not to hear.

"Look, is he capable?" Shen Zhaixing half-sat on the table, leaning back, fiddling with the brush casually: "He was alone in this den of wolves and tigers, and he was able to carry on until I came."

"Not only that, he also has the ability to make me determined to protect him. This man... really should not be underestimated!"

Shen Zhaixing thought about the information he had investigated about Nan Jiamu. He joined the army five years ago and climbed up from a first-rank soldier to his current position as a deputy general. It was absolutely impossible to say that he had no ability.

As for why he and the Li family almost had a fatal fight, it was partly because the Li family was jealous of talented people and did not want a rising star like Nan Jiamu to threaten their status; the other part was because Nan Jiamu was too ambitious and only wanted to climb up at any cost.

This time General Li abdicated and a new general needed to be found to take over, which became the fuse between the Li family and Nan Jiamu.

The Li family wanted their son Li Youning to become the new general and had already paved the way for him. However, who would have thought that Nan Jiamu would appear halfway through. He was highly respected in the army and was the only choice for the new general.

Seeing that more and more people were supporting Nan Jiamu, the Li family came up with the idea of ​​placing Nan Jiamu under house arrest under the pretext of the epidemic, hoping to take this opportunity to kill Nan Jiamu with arrows.

Unfortunately, it failed!

Shen Zhaixing waited for a while after he finished speaking, but Gu Jingheng didn't respond. He couldn't help but sit up straight and looked at Gu Jingheng: "Don't you want to know how he made me determined to protect him?"

"What else could it be? Evidence that can completely bring down the Li family." Gu Jingheng didn't look at him, but just looked at the document in his hand.

If they can't even get this little bit of evidence, then Nan Jiamu has no reason to negotiate with them.

"Oh, no." Shen Zhaixing was a little puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "How do you know everything?"

Gu Jingheng curled his lips and explained, "Nan Jiamu and the Li family have already torn their faces apart. In the end, either the Li family kills Nan Jiamu, or Nan Jiamu wipes out the Li family. The Li family is powerful, Li Youning's father is a first-rank official, and his uncle is a general in charge of the Xuanjia Army. It is simply a foolish dream for Nan Jiamu to want to wipe out the Li family on his own!"

At this point, Gu Jingheng looked at Shen Zhaixing and said, "To put it bluntly, you are just a knife used by others to eliminate the Li family."

Shen Zhaixing pursed her lips, her eyes were a little complicated, and then she smiled: "Let's not talk about this. The fact that he was able to obtain the evidence of the Li family's crimes and had the courage to surrender to me is already very impressive."

"I like this Nan Jiamu!"

Gu Jingheng just glanced at Shen Zhaixing indifferently and didn't say much.
