Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

The mountains were high and the forests were dense. Firewood was crackling and burning. Two wild rabbits were sizzling. Jinyun became interested and insisted on grabbing Bian to dig wild yams from the back to roast. In a short while, they ran away and disappeared without a trace.

He looked down at the back of his hand, lost in thought.

Jiuling was flipping through the rabbit slowly, and suddenly said, "Master, Miss Nan's identity has been verified."

He turned around and glanced at Jiuling, somewhat displeased.

Jiuling raised his eyebrows and said in a serious tone: "My lord, do you still remember that Liu Er, the one who slipped into a deep ravine and broke his leg while walking at night! If we hadn't met him by chance, he would have died long ago! I ran into him as soon as I went out today..."

"Get to the point." He interrupted Jiu Ling's calm statement.

"Miss Nan is the wife of Lord Hongze, the current governor of Yongning Guard." Bi'an blurted out and glanced at him as if he was watching a good show.

He hesitated for a moment as he added wood to the fire, but soon returned to normal.

Jiuling secretly looked at the direction Jinyun went and whispered, "It's just that the reason why she came to Xinyun Manor was all by chance, and this chance seems to be Jinyun."

He acted as if he didn't hear it and didn't react any further.

Although Jiuling muttered thousands of things in his heart, he didn't dare to say a word.

The return journey was exceptionally silent, as he had little to say as usual. Jinyun was thinking to himself and did not speak either.

Bi'an followed behind, chattering nonsense. Jiuling had a lot to say, but he didn't dare to open his mouth.

Just like that, they arrived at the gate. Bi'an led the horse to feed, and only the two of them were left walking side by side. Jinyun seemed to come back to his senses and smiled at him: "The pills you want will be ready in a few days."

"Are you leaving now?" he asked gloomily.

"No! I still have to stay for a few days!" Jinyun seemed to be in a good mood and smiled at him, "But I'll tell you the truth so you can rest assured."

"Yeah." He responded and said nothing else.

"That's right." Jinyun seemed to remember something. He was about to speak but stopped and just smiled foolishly.

"Just say what you want to say." He frowned. Is this still the Jinyun he knew?

Jinyun lowered his head, looking a little shy. After a moment of silence, he said, "Let me sort it out first. I'll tell you when everything is settled. Don't worry, it's just a matter of your words."

Jiuling's scalp tingled. He glanced secretly at his master, but saw that he was no different from before. He was confused for a moment, found an excuse and left, and no longer listened to their idle chat.

The expression on Jinyun's face was rare. He looked up at the sky and saw a crescent moon hanging alone in the dome, emitting a faint light, surrounded by dark clouds, almost unnoticeable.

At this moment, he lowered his head to look at Jinyun's fair and handsome face again. He was handsome and energetic, like a tall and beautiful bamboo. It seemed as if he was meeting him for the first time today.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what Bi'an said, that women all like handsome men like Jinyun. This was certainly true. In the capital, Jinyun was chased by women everywhere. There were many times when they even had to hide in his house to avoid them, complaining bitterly.

It is totally different from this moment, the barely perceptible smile is full of the euphemism of first love.

The moment the bitterness arose, even he was shocked by himself.

Jinyun was completely immersed in his own world and did not notice the fleeting surprise in his eyes. The young man was meditating on something with all his energy and had no time to pay attention to his good brother in front of him.

He went back alone and saw a graceful figure on the white wall in the corridor.
