After Xie Jingan finished speaking, the door of the small study was quickly pushed open from the outside. Director Qin led two servants from the dining room to bring up the dishes on red lacquered trays. The hard dishes in his stomach were made according to the new recipes he had written down intermittently in the past few months. Just smelling the taste made his mouth water, and Xie Jingan's stomach twitched as he became more and more hungry.

After finally maintaining his prestige, he forced his servants to serve good dishes, and was about to stretch out his chopsticks to stuff a piece of food into his mouth to relieve his hunger, when suddenly his eyes fell on Lin Yan's raised hand, Xie Jingan couldn't help but froze, this I just remembered something, and quickly turned around to tell Mr. Qin: "Send a maid to Miss Lin's yard to ask for a jar of hand-moisturizing retting seeds. When buying next month, ask people to buy more, and then go to the medical officer for another. There is a prescription for frostbite, it is freezing today, many people have this kind of sore on their hands, although it is a minor ailment, but no matter it will become a chronic disease in the future, the king does not want to see it all in winter These sores, when the things are bought, ask the people in the house to wipe them on their hands, can you write them down?"

Xie Jingan was still full of energy on those dishes for a moment, but he mentioned chilblains before he even ate the dishes. Manager Ren Qin couldn't help being a little dazed when he knew this master well, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He replied in a rather bewildered manner, and retreated out after Xie Jingan waved his hand to signal him to go down.

Director Qin didn't understand why Xie Jingan suddenly brought up the matter of chilblain, he had been paying attention to Xie Jingan, but Lin Yan, who hadn't looked away for a moment, knew it well. Fever, he restrained and restrained so he didn't reach out to touch it, and said with a little embarrassment on his face: "It's just some frostbite, it's not a fatal disease, Your Highness, don't take such small things to heart, and at the end These chilblains were not obtained when I was in Mozhou, but I got them when I was exiled in Tanzhou for these years. Even if I wiped the retting seeds every day and raised them carefully, I am afraid that it would not be cured completely, and it would also pollute His Highness. The eyes are the last general's, aren't they?"

Lin Yan really thought that Xie Jingan was looking at these chilblains as an eyesore. While talking, he silently hid his hands that were resting on the small table to pick up the chopsticks under the table, and lowered his eyes subconsciously. From Xie Jingan's point of view, Inexplicably people feel that he is a little depressed.

Xie Jing'an had seen the frostbite on Lin Yan's hands in the courtyard where the people affected by the disaster had been resettled. At that time, he thought it was from Lin Yan's frostbite when he went north to suppress the bandits, so he wanted to come back and let the medical officer prescribe a prescription for him. It's still an old problem, so I couldn't help being a little surprised, and seeing Lin Yan's disappointed look, I couldn't help comforting him: "This king even went up the city wall of Pingzhou, how can I be stained by frostbite like you? This king just thinks that although this is a minor illness, it should not be ignored, but you don’t know how many serious illnesses are caused by minor illnesses, and besides, your hands are like swords and bows, how can you not protect them carefully?"

Xie Jingan comforted me gently, and then asked what I wanted to ask: "I remember that you said that you have martial arts, and you can survive the winter safely even if you wear a single coat. Since your kung fu is so good, How could it cause so many chilblains on the hands? But what unimaginable sufferings did you suffer in Tanzhou?"

Xie Jingan fantasized about all sorts of utterly devoid of conscience in his mind, and Lin Yan couldn't help thinking about the hellish past when Xie Jingan's words caught him, but he was always able to restrain himself, but After thinking for a while, he came back to his senses, there was no special expression on his face, as if these things were not worth mentioning, and he said lightly: "When the general was exiled in Tanzhou, he was doing some hard work, it doesn't matter to the general, But what Shemei does every day is some washing, rinsing, sewing, and mending. In summer, she is better, but she is tired, but in winter, it is difficult. The water is freezing cold, even a warrior can hardly bear it. What's more, she is a sister? Besides, she is a woman, not like a vulgar person like the general, she must be raised carefully to marry, and the general will take her work off every winter after work, lest she All sick."

What Lin Yan said was downplaying, but Xie Jingan was very worried when he heard it. He wished that the time would go back to two years ago, when he traveled earlier and recruited Lin Yan under his command, lest he suffer so much grievance and suffering.

It's just that this kind of thought can only be thought about, Xie Jingan just went through it in his mind once and then threw it aside, and was about to comfort him with distress, but Lin Yan suddenly raised his head and smiled at him, and said softly : "Your Highness talks about hardships. In fact, it is not a hardship for the general. Now the general has to meet His Highness, and he is appreciated and entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Everything in the past is a thing of the past, and it is not worth mentioning. Now the general only thinks about it." Serve Your Highness wholeheartedly, do your best, and die."

Lin Yan said this because he had a smile on his face, his expression was quite gentle, but his eyes were extremely serious, and his tone was very solemn. No matter who heard it, he could tell that not a word of what he said was adulterated, and it was all from his heart. inner.

Lin Yan did speak from the bottom of his heart. People in the world say that a friend in need is a friend. He used to be quite confident when he heard this. Even if something happened to his family, there would always be a few family friends and friends who would stand up for them. Who would have known that the ancients did not deceive me until the catastrophe was imminent.

Lin Yan is also in Tanzhou in the past two years. He has really become calm. His previous stability was superficial. He is still a lively teenager in his heart. He will be proud and complacent, even if he is favored by the prince. He waits by his side, but he also thinks that it is all due to his own ability. Although he is valued by the prince, he does not regard the prince as the master to whom he will be loyal wholeheartedly. The prince ascended to the high position, so that he could take advantage of the relationship with the prince over the years to invite him to the frontier and hire him on the battlefield.

Although he had a good plan, but after all, the world is impermanent. Who knows, he became a prisoner in just one night. His former friends and even the crown prince immediately distanced themselves from him, and never said a word for them. The two years of exile interrupted his arrogance even more, and smashed his self-satisfaction into blood. He once thought that he would spend the rest of his life doing nothing in Tanzhou, and even thought of accepting his fate. , if he hadn't met King Shun, he probably either died in prison or became a mediocre person.

Until he died, he would never forget the first time he saw King Shun in the dirty prison that day. It was not that he had never seen King Shun before, but it was the first time he felt that King Shun was so handsome and good-looking. His aura was also more majestic than the other princes or even the crown prince. His heart that had been tortured and silent for two years suddenly started beating vigorously at this time. He thought at the time that as long as King Shun was willing to recruit him, he would use his whole body to recruit him. He was able to be loyal wholeheartedly, but what happened afterwards was just as he thought. He was favored by King Shun to work under his command, and unknowingly became his confidant.

Although the two years of exile in Tanzhou seemed like a nightmare to him, when he wanted to rest every night, he couldn't help thinking that these two years seemed like a destiny destined by the heavens. If he hadn't been exiled Tanzhou probably never had a chance to meet King Shun in this life, and he was deeply moved by serving King Shun.

Lin Yan had all sorts of thoughts in his mind, but he never showed anything on his face. Even so, Xie Jingan was very worried. What happened in the past, what was not worth mentioning, these were just comforting words, but Xie Jingan still has no words. Remembering Lin Yan's tragic situation, the handsome young man who grew up from a young age was almost as thin as a bone, his face was so dirty that he couldn't see his original appearance, and he was lying on his body with a big hole wrapped in a dirty cloth. On the dirty and smelly pile of straw, if Xie Jingan had gone a few days later, he might have just died there without a sound, without even a decent grave.

Think about it differently, if Xie Jingan didn't have nightmares every day after going through this, it would be fine, how could he be as calm as Lin Yan, no matter how stable Lin Yan was, he was still only a teenager, the reason why Don't say it, just buried it in my heart and don't want to tell others.

The more Xie Jingan thought about it, the more he couldn't help feeling pity for Lin Yan. He picked up the chopsticks on the table and stretched out his hand to pull out Lin Yan's hand hidden under the table and stuff it in. Then he patted his shoulder and comforted him: " Don't worry, you are now working under the king's command, and you are the king's man. No matter what, the king will not let you be bullied. Just wait a year or two until the management of the king's fiefdom improves. If someone listens to what you have to say in the court, you will definitely ask the father to re-examine your family's case and return your family's innocence, then this king will let you go back to Chang'an, and let you Jinyi go back to repair the tomb of your parents and brother."

Xie Jingan paused at this point, hesitating to tell the story of his brother, sister and nephew who had left him in Chang'an so that they could take care of him. Originally, he didn't say that he wanted to bring him to Mozhou so that he could give him a surprise. , but now he is thinking that Lin Yan has suffered such a catastrophe, and there are not many relatives in the world. Except for Lin Wan, there are only a few younger brothers, younger sisters and nephews in Chang'an who are sold as official slaves. Now, even though they can't be reunited now, but Xie Jingan told him, at least it relieved his worries, and he also added some expectations for his future life, and he also had a little more vitality in him.

Xie Jing'an thought about this, and slowly said it out of his mouth, and said slowly: "There is one more thing that this king has never told General Lin. At that time, General Lin had just come out of the prison. He was seriously injured and unconscious. , Lingmei is also a female family member. It is not easy for the king to discuss with her, so he sent someone back to Chang'an to inquire about General Lin's other relatives who were not exiled. The people sent by the king sent back news a few days ago. General Lin The younger brothers, sisters and nephews have all been found, and now they are placed in the king's village in the outskirts of Chang'an. The news came back that although the relatives of General Lin have suffered a bit, they are not seriously injured, and they will take care of them for a while. You have brought them back, General Lin, don’t worry, after staying in Chang’an for a year and a half, there will be fewer people staring at your family in Chang’an, so I will send those children to Mozhou to reunite your family.”

Xie Jing'an tried his best to speak lightly, but Lin Yan was too excited to hear it, and then said to him that he had devoted himself to death. Who would have thought that his tone would be so flat, but Lin Yan was still shocked and grateful He stood up from the chair and was about to bow down to him when he walked into the hall. Xie Jingan quickly reached out to help him, and said helplessly: "What are you doing? You are the most useful person under my king's command now." The military general who shared the worries and worries for the king and made several contributions. In order to let you do things with peace of mind, the king will also relieve your worries. If you really thank the king, don’t toss each other to worship each other, just keep it. Being energetic and doing business for this king, suppressing a few more bandit villages is the best reward for this king."

Xie Jingan tried his best to support Lin Yan, so that he could not bow down, but in the end he bowed to him to the end, looked at him deeply and said solemnly: "What your highness said is that the general will serve your highness wholeheartedly from now on. His Highness Fei has expressed his heart, and honors His Highness's entrustment."
