On the second day, Lin Sishen, who had been tossing and turning all night, got up when the sun was bright. She couldn't wait to find the maid Shen Qingwan mentioned. Since she is an insider, she must know the hidden truth behind that incident back then. .

Although she had only been to Yixian Building twice, Lin Sishen had figured out the terrain, walked through the winding corridors, and then through the secluded and deep back garden, following the wisp of green smoke in the dim light, she quickly I found the kitchen.

As soon as he stepped into the yard, Lin Sishen bumped into the maid whom he met yesterday. The maid was carrying a food box, as if she was planning to deliver breakfast.

But it was not yet dawn, and it stands to reason that the princess and Baiting Mountain should still be resting, and there were no outsiders in Yixian Tower, so she had prepared breakfast so early, and was planning to send it with a food box, which was a bit strange Strange.

Seeing Lin Sishen appearing, the maid seemed a little surprised, but she came back to her senses in an instant, hurriedly lowered her head and bowed to salute: "My servant has seen Master Lin."

Lin Sishen smiled, looked at her thoughtfully for a few times, then stepped forward and raised his hand to give her a weak hand, and said softly: "Young lady, you are welcome, get up quickly."

After she stood still, Lin Sishen casually glanced at the food box in her hand, and asked with a smile, "Miss is so early, are you going to deliver breakfast?"

The maid lowered her head and said respectfully: "Report to Mr. Lin, this is what Mr. Bai ordered last night."

Lin Sishen nodded when he heard the words, and said with a half-smile, "I see."

Seeing Lin Sishen standing in front of the courtyard door, it seemed that she didn't intend to leave for the time being, the maid lowered her eyes and asked in a low voice: "If Master Lin has an order, just call the servants to go, how can you bother Sir to find it himself."

Lin Sishen glanced at her, waved his sleeves and put his hands behind his back, and said leisurely, "I don't have anything to say, I just woke up a little early, so I just walked around."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for her to reply, Lin Sishen asked with a smile, "Have you asked the girl's name yet?"

The maid always lowered her head, making people look down on her expression: "Thanks to your lord's promotion, this servant's name is Mei Xiang."

Lin Sishen nodded, and asked again: "Then who is Miss Mei Xiang from?"

Mei Xiang replied respectfully: "My lord, the slaves are from Luzhou."

Lin Sishen's heart moved when he heard the words, he raised his hand to touch his smooth chin, and pretended to think: "Luzhou... I have been there a few years ago, I don't know if you know Fengming."

A glint of light flashed across Mei Xiang's eyes, and she said in a low voice: "This servant left his hometown when he was young. Although he knows where Feng Ming is, he has never been there."

Lin Sishen said with a sense of loss: "Fengming is a good place. In the Yulin Army under my general Weiyuan's mansion, there are many soldiers from Fengming. They are brave and good at fighting, and they regard death as home. They are all good men who stand up to the sky. "

Mei Xiang was unmoved by the words, and just stood respectfully with lowered eyebrows.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Sishen asked a few more questions, all of which were rambling and unimportant, and it sounded like he was chatting casually with nothing to do.

Mei Xiang didn't need to think about these questions, she answered them one by one, and answered them calmly, even her expression didn't change at all.

But just when she relaxed her vigilance a little, Lin Sishen's expression suddenly became serious, his eyes darkened a lot, and he asked abruptly, "Miss Mei Xiang knows boxing skills?"

Mei Xiang's heart trembled, and she quickly raised her eyes to look at Lin Sishen, with a little surprise on her face.The next moment, she sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Your Excellency, you are just joking, this slave is just a lowly servant who doesn't know how to read big characters, how can she know how to kung fu."

Lin Sishen stared at her with squinted eyes, raised the corners of his lips and snorted coldly: "Really?"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Sishen raised his hand unexpectedly, and swung his palm towards Mei Xiang's shoulder. Before Mei Xiang had time to react, her body subconsciously retreated, dodging Lin Sishen's blow nimbly and nimbly.

Lin Sishen withdrew his hand after only a trial, stared at Mei Xiang who was a few steps away and said coldly: "You also said you don't know kung fu."

After Mei Xiang stood still, her face turned pale and she hurriedly argued: "This servant only learned some self-defense skills from others..."

But before she finished speaking, Lin Sishen suddenly rushed forward again, bent his five fingers and grabbed Mei Xiang's wrist, this time Mei Xiang didn't hide, and stood motionless on the spot.

Lin Sishen grabbed Mei Xiang's right hand and pulled it up, glanced down at her palm, then sneered again: "There are calluses on both sides of the tiger's mouth, how dare you say that you only learned self-defense skills? This is clearly caused by holding a knife all year round." .”

Mei Xiang didn't expect Lin Sishen to attack suddenly, she trembled in panic, "I..."

But Lin Sishen didn't give her a chance to quibble at all, seeing a black scar on Mei Xiang's wrist, she quickly raised her hand and opened Mei Xiang's sleeve, and suddenly found a long old scar on her forearm.

The black scar snaked up from the arm, long and wide, as if it had been whipped.

When Lin Sishen saw the scar, his expression changed suddenly, and he said in surprise, "Chain knife."

Seeing her identity exposed, Mei Xiang immediately gritted her teeth, and said in a low voice apologetically, "Little General, I'm sorry."

After finishing speaking, Mei Xiang withdrew her hand violently, and before Lin Sishen recovered, she raised her hand and pushed Lin Sishen's shoulder. She had no intention of hurting Lin Sishen, so she just pushed her away a few steps.

Breaking free from the shackles, Mei Xiang immediately dropped the food box and jumped onto the roof of the back kitchen.

After Lin Sishen staggered a few steps and stood still, he looked up at Mei Xiang who was standing on the roof and was about to leave, and hurriedly said: "Miss Mei Xiang, please stay. You should know why I came looking for you, I have no malicious intentions..."

Mei Xiang turned around and glanced at Lin Sishen, her calm eyes stirred up a little bit of turbulence, she said with a complicated expression: "Little General, we will meet later."

Lin Sishen was about to catch up, but suddenly Shen Qingwan called out coldly from behind.

"Mei Xiang."

Lin Sishen and Mei Xiang turned their heads almost at the same time, and looked at Shen Qingwan who was approaching not far away.

Shen Qingwan was still wearing the fox fur from yesterday. On her picturesque and delicate face, her expression was cold and proud. Her eyes were quiet and deep like the deep sea. She only glanced at Mei Xiang, and Mei Xiang pursed her lips. hang your head.

Seeing Mei Xiang stopped on the roof and did not leave, Lin Sishen breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Shen Qingwan who was walking slowly.

As Shen Qingwan got closer, Lin Sishen soon noticed that her complexion didn't look very good, and her breath was a little fuzzy, as if she was too tired and didn't have a good rest.

Shen Qingwan walked to Lin Sishen and stopped, she only glanced at Lin Sishen calmly, then looked at Mei Xiang, slowly opened her lips and said: "Mei Xiang, you know her identity, and you should also know that she treats you well." No malice."

Mei Xiang frowned, she looked down at Shen Qingwan, and said with a complicated expression: "Of course I know, but... the princess clearly promised her foster father that she would never reveal our whereabouts to the people in the general's mansion, why did the princess want to Go back on your word?"

Shen Qingwan opened her lips calmly and said: "Your adoptive father has been hiding in Tibet for more than [-] years, and every day is like a frightened bird, sleepless and anxious all day long. I think you also know in your heart that that matter If it doesn't end, he may not be able to forgive himself until he dies, so you really have the heart?"

Mei Xiang was silent for a while after hearing the words, but she still jumped down from the roof. She gritted her teeth and showed grief and indignation: "But... the princess knows that the matter is destined to be unfinished,"

Before Shen Qingwan could speak, Lin Sishen asked in a deep voice, "Your adoptive father is He Qin, am I right or not?"

Mei Xiang was very surprised: "How did the little general know about my adoptive father?"

Lin Sishen lowered his eyes and looked at Mei Xiang's right arm: "The scar on your hand is from the whip wound when you used the chain knife. The former vanguard scout He Qin, this is his own sword technique."

After finishing speaking, Lin Sishen suddenly curled his lips into a bitter smile: "Father often talks about him."

He Qin, the scout of the vanguard army, is a rare genius in Lin Ying's mouth, and also an old friend Lin Ying trusts and relies on most.

In the army, he appeared elusive and rarely showed up. He often wandered in front of the battle to spy on the military situation, and he never made a mistake.The reason why Lin Ying was undefeated in all battles, big and small, is due to his credit.

He is not only good at light work, but also good at smelting weapons. He made the chain knife himself.

In that battle, He Qin was ordered to spy on the enemy, but he never came back. Even after the war, he disappeared and looked for traces. The post of scout is the most dangerous, and he often never returns.Lin Ying took it for granted that he stumbled and died somewhere.

He Qin's family only had an elderly mother. Later, Lin Ying built a tomb for He Qin in Fengming, and brought He Qin's old mother to the capital to take care of him. However, the old man was frail and sick and suffered from the loss of a child. He passed away regrettably within a year. .

Both Mei Xiang and He Qin knew about these things, but they didn't expect that even Lin Sishen, who had never met He Qin, knew about such a "dead man" in the past so many years.

Mei Xiang felt a little ashamed, so she didn't dare to raise her eyes to look at Lin Sishen, she just tilted her head and sighed in a low voice: "Unexpectedly, the old general mentioned the adoptive father to the young general."

Lin Sishen took a deep breath, calmed his thoughts and asked in a deep voice: "Uncle He, he should be in Yixian Tower."

Mei Xiang hesitated, she didn't speak for a long time, and looked up at Shen Qingwan from time to time.

Shen Qingwan didn't speak again, but just looked at Mei Xiang quietly with a calm expression, her clear eyes were not angry but had a slight sense of oppression, which made Mei Xiang hesitate even more.

After being silent for a long time, Mei Xiang closed her eyes, raised her head and let out a long sigh, then said with a forced smile, "This day is finally here."

Shen Qingwan raised her chin lightly when she heard the words, opened her mouth lightly and said lightly: "Don't talk too much, let's lead the way."

Mei Xiang had no choice but to nod with a heavy expression, walked slowly to the front of the two, lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "Young general, princess, please follow me."

After finishing speaking, she bent over and picked up the food box on the ground, and walked straight out of the yard.

Seeing that Shen Qingwan followed Mei Xiang out, Lin Sishen followed Shen Qingwan with three steps and two steps at a time, she turned her head to look at Shen Qingwan's face, hesitated to say: "Thank you Princess."

Shen Qingwan's expression moved slightly when she heard the words, she closed her eyes and said softly: "This is what I should do, you don't have to be so polite."
