Chapter 201: Probing, Secrets

Along the coast?

Shen Yanzhou...

Feng Xin remembered that when Shen Yanzhou was injured, a doctor cut open his stomach and saved him. Maybe he was lucky that the doctor was a miracle doctor.

He looked at Xiao Yan on the bed and said:

"Take good care of the master, I'll be back soon."

Feng Xin said this and disappeared into the bedroom in a flash.

When he came back, the doctor had already given his wounds temporary treatment.

When the doctor went down to boil the medicine, Feng Xin asked with some remorse, guilt and worry:

"Master, you have a wound? Who hurt you?"

Feng Xin almost always stayed by Xiao Yan's side except when he was on a mission, and he had never seen Xiao Yan being hurt by anyone. However, the wound on his abdomen was clearly an old wound.

"No problem."

Xiao Yun said this neither lightly nor seriously, with a completely indifferent tone.

Based on Feng Xin's understanding of his master, he was definitely not the kind of person who would suffer in silence. But now, when the person who hurt him was mentioned, his master showed no emotion at all.

Feng Xin had reason to suspect that he was the one who hurt his master.

Xiao Yun's face was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood, his eyes were slightly closed, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed to be in great pain.

His lips were cracked and trembling slightly, and he occasionally let out a faint, suppressed cough.

"What's the news from Lin Kaiji?"

"He sent people to the coastal areas. He must have received the news."

Xiao Yan nodded and said:

"The bait is big enough this time. If he hadn't shown up in person, we would have ended the battle quickly."

Feng Xin nodded and said:

"My subordinate understands."

After explaining the main business, Xiao Wei asked:

"how is she?"

Although he did not mention any names, Feng Xin knew that his master was asking about Lin Zhaoyue, so he replied:

"Miss Lin Er and Miss Lin have already gone to the camp, but Miss Lin left an hour later and asked Miss Wen and the others to go watch an opera."

Feng Xin paused for a moment and said:

"Master, I am afraid that Lin Kaiji will be forced into a corner and start with Miss Lin Er."

Xiao Yan frowned slightly and said:

"Send someone to protect her secretly."

"Yes, sir..."

……

No one knew who was saying bad things about her behind her back, but Lin Zhaoyue couldn't stop sneezing in the military camp.

Lin Kaiji thought she caught a cold and put his cloak on her.

"It's getting dark, and it's cold at the border at night. I'll take you back to the tent to rest."

Lin Zhaoyue nodded and agreed.

After Lin Kaiji sent Lin Zhaoyue back to the main tent, he had someone light a charcoal fire and prepare some food.

"I'm going to go to the training ground first. You wait here. I'll come back and take you home later."

Lin Zhaoyue nodded obediently and put a baked naan on the fire.

She didn't get up until she could no longer hear any sound. Then she went to the main desk to look through Lin Kaiji's documents.

Lin Zhaoyue looked through the documents, most of which contained unimportant military intelligence.

She put the information back, opened the drawers on both sides, and found that one of the drawers could not be opened at all.

A hint of solemnity flashed across her almond-shaped eyes. She took off the golden hairpin on her head, inserted it into the keyhole, and turned it.

Can't open it?

She took off the silver bracelet on her hand, straightened it, pulled out a small piece, inserted it into the keyhole and turned it. With a click, the cabinet became loose. She reached out and pulled, and the cabinet opened.

There was nothing inside except a reddish-brown sandalwood box.

The sandalwood box was finely crafted, and even the carvings around it were inlaid with gold threads, making it obvious at first glance that it was a precious item.

The box was locked with a small gold lock. She fastened the bracelet and took off the gold hairpin on her head. The tip of the hairpin turned in the lock core, making a slight friction sound.

After unlocking the box, Lin Zhaoyue opened it and what caught her eyes was a painting scroll and a jade pendant.

That jade pendant was the heart-shaped jade pendant that she gave to Lin Kaiji.

Although the jade pendant is not cheap, it is not worth the price that Lin Kaiji would specially collect.

But... maybe, big brother is just thinking of the right time to give it to the person he likes.

Lin Zhaoyue looked at the scroll and had a hunch that that was probably the person her elder brother liked.

She was a little hesitant, but when she thought of Xiao Yan's words, she gritted her teeth and picked it up.

When it was unfolded, the two lifelike figures in the scroll appeared.

The young general in fine clothes and riding a vigorous horse held the little dumpling in his arms, smiling happily and dotingly.

And the little ball in his arms was her when she was a child.

She didn't know why, but she always felt that there was something wrong with the way her brother looked at her.

When she realized what she was thinking, Lin Zhaoyue slapped her head hard.

What the hell is she thinking?

Not to mention that she was only the size of a bean sprout at the time, this was her own brother...

Just when Lin Zhaoyue was feeling upset, the sound of footsteps outside began again.

The footsteps are from my eldest brother.

Why is he back?

Lin Zhaoyue quickly folded the scroll, stuffed it into the box, closed the cabinet, put the small note Lin Kaiji had put there to prevent theft, and locked it...

……

When Lin Kaiji returned to the main account, he was stunned when he saw Lin Zhaoyue sitting at the desk where he worked.

Lin Zhaoyue heard the noise, looked up at Lin Kaiji in confusion, and asked naturally:

"Brother, why are you back? Did you forget something?"
