CHAPTER 279: CHAPTER 274: YUN FAMILY ARMY?

Yun Ran silently rolled her eyes in her heart, "Oh? What did you see?"

"You, Yun Mo, and a person in black."

"Feng Xuan saw you fighting the person in black, he was about to step forward to help, then Yun Mo suddenly appeared."

"According to Feng Xuan, the person in black wanted to assassinate you, but in the end, you stopped Yun Mo from killing him, why was that?"

[According to Feng Xuan? You said it yourself, didn’t you?]

[Lying through your teeth without even blushing? I’ve never seen such a shameless person!]

Yun Ran’s eyes shifted, and she smiled with an innocent and harmless face, "Guard Feng must have seen it wrong, right? I didn’t stop Yun Mo from killing him!"

Nangong Mo: "?"

"I didn’t even see Guard Feng at that time! So, he must have been far away, he probably didn’t see clearly."

"..."

Nangong Mo pressed his thin lips, calm and composed, spouting nonsense with a serious face, "Beloved princess, you may not know, Feng Xuan was born with divine vision, his eyesight is excellent, he can take in everything within a radius of five miles."

At this time, Feng Xuan, who was standing outside the door, had a dumbfounded look: When did I have divine vision that can see so far? How come I didn’t know?!

Even Yun Ran was speechless: [This person’s lying knows no bounds!]

Nangong Mo glanced at Yun Ran unobtrusively, slightly raising an eyebrow, "He wanted to kill you, but beloved princess you want to let him go, so, you know the person in black?"

Though the last sentence was a question, the tone was extremely certain.

[Indeed a persistent dog of a man! But...]

Yun Ran blinked lightly and smiled brightly, "Yes, I know him."

"You know him well?"

"Yes, very well!"

"Known him for many years?"

"Yes! Known him since a long, long time ago!"

"..."

Listening to the series of replies, then looking at Yun Ran’s smiling face, her eyes shining brightly, the man’s eyes darkened slightly, his handsome face was like the sky outside swirling with wind and snow, heavy, cold.

"What is he to you?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Ran blinked lightly, with a crafty smile, "That... it’s a secret!"

Nangong Mo: "..."

"A se-cret?"

Yun Ran felt his teeth were nearly grinding to pieces, and looking again at his face, it had turned from cloudy to rainy, then to mixed snow and rain...

She was unfazed, smiling with curved brows, extremely happy, "Yes! It’s a secret! Can’t tell you~!"

Nangong Mo: "..."

Ah! Didn’t she say before, that she can only tell Nangong Mo? Isn’t this master Nangong Mo?

The man narrowed his eyes, looking at her smiling face like a flower, really wanting to wring her neck.

"Lin, Wan, Yue."

"Don’t call me, can’t hear~!"

"..."

[Hmph! Just not telling you! Annoy you to death! Makes you admit you are not Yun Mo!]

[It’s rude not to reciprocate, today let you experience this kind of frustration too!]

Nangong Mo: "..."

Yun Ran was dead set on not letting him have an easy time, directly ignoring the man’s handsome face darker than the sky outside, relaxedly sitting in the bed, reading novels, eating snacks, extremely comfortable!

Nangong Mo: "..."

...

Due to the snow covering the ground, even at night, outside was bright.

A fast horse galloped rapidly from the official road outside the city, horse stepping through snow, raising a trail of white dust.

The city gates were already closed, on the tower the soldiers guarding the city, bent their bows and arrows aiming at the person and horse below, shouting sharply:

"Who goes there? Halt!"

The person on the horse, wearing a wide cloak, calmly took out a token from their chest.

The soldiers on the city tower held up a lantern and took a look, their expression suddenly changed, withdrawing their bows and cupping their fists, "Apologies, General!"

"Quickly open the city gate!"

"General, take care!"

The person on the horse put away the token, only uttered a faint ’hmm’, raised the whip, and the steed dashed away, as fast as lightning in the silent night.

A soldier leaned over, "Yang, who was that person?"

"Didn’t see clearly, but the token in his hand was from Hu Ben Camp."

"Hu Ben Army? Under the Yun Family Army?"

The suddenly raised volume showed the soldier’s inner excitement and delight.

Yang nodded, "Yes. It’s just a bit strange, why enter the capital so late at night? Could it be something happened at the border?"

That young soldier was still immersed in his own world, full of eager anticipation, "Oh my gosh! Yun Family Army? Yun Family Army wow!"

"The person I admire the most is Marshal Yun! If I could be fortunate enough to witness Marshal Yun’s demeanor in this life, I would be willing to live two years less!"

...

Lin Yanran had originally retired but was awakened by her personal maid.

Her sweet dream disturbed, she was somewhat irritated, directly slapped the maid’s face, "You useless servant! Do you want to die?"

"Miss, Miss please calm down!"

The maid ’thumped’ to the ground, her face was scratched with several bloody marks by the long nails, "It’s Madam, Madam asked this servant to call you, saying the eldest young master has returned!"

Lin Yanran’s originally angry and overcast expression suddenly changed upon hearing the last sentence, somewhat shocked, "Who did you say returned?"

"Responding to second Miss, it is the eldest young master who returned! He is in the main courtyard now."

A hint of joy crossed Lin Yanran’s face, she hurriedly got out of bed, "Quickly, help me with my makeup!"

...

In the main courtyard at this moment, Lin Haoran had already removed his cloak, inside he was wearing a striking military uniform, his posture was upright, his stature tall, the military uniform exuded an incomparable charisma.

"Haoran, you’ve endured a lot of hardships outside these years, haven’t you? Let mother see, you’ve become thinner!"

"Are you used to the food at the border? Is there a lot of wind and sand there? Have you been injured?"

"You’ve been gone for so many years, mother almost missed you to death!"

Mrs. Qin held Lin Haoran’s hand, the love and care in her eyes almost overflowing her face, after a round of expressing concern, uncontrollable tears welled up in her eyes.

Lin Haoran quickly comforted her, "Mother, don’t cry, isn’t your son back safely?"

Lin Qianqiu also looked at Mrs. Qin with a frown, "Haoran returns with military honors, he is no longer the same as before, this is extremely joyous, why cry on such a happy day?"

Mrs. Qin wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "I can’t control it!"

"Even though he earned merit, promoted in rank, endured so much suffering, fought in such perilous battles! Just thinking about it, as a mother, my heart aches."

"Alright, this time Haoran returns, let’s arrange a position for him in the capital."

Lin Qianqiu from the bottom of his heart was not willing to let Lin Haoran fight on the battlefield, it was too dangerous.

Now he carries military honors, has trained on the battlefield, has the glory of the Yun Family Army, coupled with his years of management in the capital and his relationship with the Crown Prince, it’s not impossible he could be made a military marquis or something in the capital.

"Brother!"

They were talking, when Lin Yanran arrived.
