Chapter 73 Extra: Lin Xiaonan



Lin Xiaonan's favorite person is his fourth uncle, and the person he admires most is his fourth uncle-father.

In Lin Xiaonan's impression, his fourth uncle was the gentlest and often took him and his sister out to play when they were young.

Lin Xiaonan had admired his fourth uncle since he was a child, so when he was fourteen years old, Lin Xiaonan followed Uncle Fu to the military camp outside the Great Wall.

Of course, my family was against it at first, after all, one could lose one’s life if one was not careful on the battlefield.

However, Lin Xiaonan thought about it and realized that he was no longer a child and could not always stay under the wings of adults, as he would not be able to grow up that way.

He knew that his fourth uncle had already been living outside the Great Wall when he was his age. Since his fourth uncle could do it, he could definitely do it too!

However, before leaving, Lin Xiaonan did not forget to remind his sister not to be abducted by those stinky men before he came back.

"Brother, take care of yourself and don't get hurt." Lin Xiaoya, a girl who is a head shorter than Lin Xiaonan, had slightly red eyes.

The two siblings have been together since they were young. This is the first time they are separated, so Lin Xiaoya can't help feeling a little sad.

"Okay." Lin Xiaonan nodded seriously.

As expected, his sister is so cute, anyone who wants to be his brother-in-law must be able to beat him.

He wanted to work hard to become a powerful person like his fourth uncle, and then beat up those who were spying on his sister until they dared not show up in front of her.

Lin Mo: ...I guess Xiaoya will be single for the rest of her life?

After talking to his sister, Lin Xiaonan said goodbye to his family members one by one, and finally walked up to his fourth uncle and fourth uncle.

"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle..." Lin Xiaonan stood in front of them obediently.

A teenage boy, about the same height as Lin Mo, with a strong build but a very obedient expression.

This still amazed others who had seen this scene many times.

You know, in front of outsiders, Lin Xiaonan can be said to be a replica of Cheng Yan, with a tense and serious face.

Of course, this is also related to Cheng Yan. Everyone knows that Lin Xiaonan has admired his fourth uncle since he was a child, and even his current skills were brought up by Cheng Yan.

"Uncle Four has prepared a wooden box for you. There are a lot of medicines in it. Remember to keep it safe. And listen to your Uncle Fu when you get outside the customs." Lin Mo reminded.

"I understand, Fourth Uncle."

"If you still don't find someone you like after you come back, and you don't want to get married, that's fine. I'll talk to your grandfather."

"Fourth Uncle..."

Finally, Lin Xiaonan left the imperial city and went outside the Great Wall.

The battlefield is indeed the best place to hone one's character. Lin Xiaonan stayed outside the Great Wall for six years. If he hadn't received a letter from his fourth uncle saying that his sister was going to get married in two months, Lin Xiaonan would have planned to return to the imperial city with the soldiers in half a year.

The resolute man sitting in the main seat read the letter with a dark face and was so angry that he wanted to tear it up, but when he thought that it was a handwritten letter from his fourth uncle, he suppressed his anger.

His lovely sister was kidnapped! And they were going to get married in two months?!

"General, what's wrong?" asked the military advisor who was sitting next to him with a book in his hand, and glanced at the letter in his hand calmly.

"Nothing." Lin Xiaonan, who had changed his name to Lin Nan, calmed down his anxious mood, carefully put the letter from his fourth uncle into a special small box, and then locked it.

The blue-robed military advisor lowered his eyes, and the light in his eyes became dimmer.

The other generals sitting below looked at each other in confusion. Well... the matter between the general and the military advisor was not something they could discuss.

Everyone knows that their general is slow-witted and their military advisor is not a proactive person.

"I will leave for Beijing the day after tomorrow. You guys go down and pack up." Lin Nan opened several letters that were sent over and said without looking up.

"This... General, isn't he going back in half a year? Could something have happened in your family?" A general asked hesitantly.

These people didn't know what was going on at their general's home. They only knew that the general would receive or write letters home every month.

They all admired the general for climbing from a small soldier to the highest position in the army. Although this was slightly inferior to the God of War Cheng Wang, it was still very impressive.

"Hmph, of course I'll go back and beat the man who abducted my cute sister to death!" Lin Nan said with a slightly ferocious expression.

"This... Is the general's sister still young?" Otherwise, why would the general be like this...

"The same age as me." After seeing the contents of the letter from his fifth uncle, Lin Nan couldn't help but tear it up.

“…”

It can be said that it is a bit late for a twenty-year-old girl to get married now. Does the general want to keep his sister at home for a few more years?

"Why was the letter torn?" The military advisor saw the letter torn into two pieces.

"My fifth uncle wrote this."

"That letter just now..." He kept the letter as if it was very precious to him.

"That was written by my fourth uncle." Lin Nan's originally sharp eyes became softer.

Everyone present: “…”

It looks a bit weird that a grown man calls himself uncle with repetition.

Regardless of how his subordinates viewed him, Lin Nan was already on his way back to Beijing. Because he had to return quickly, he was traveling with only a few generals and a group of elite soldiers, while the army behind him was marching according to plan.

After much haste, Lin Nan finally arrived at the imperial city a month later, and the team entered the city exhausted.

They were extremely curious about the general's family background, but unfortunately the general had never mentioned it to them before. This time they had a chance to take a look, so they naturally would not let it go.

"Yan Qing, how are you? Are you still holding on?" Lin Nan put his arm around the person in front of him and asked with some concern.

According to his plan, his military advisor should return with the army returning to Beijing instead of traveling with him. After all, the military advisor's physical fitness is not as good as his soldiers.

Unfortunately, his military advisor was also a stubborn person.

Fortunately, his fourth uncle still had a lot of medicine he received, otherwise Yan Qing would not have survived until now.

"Nothing, just go back and have some sleep."

As for why he pretended to be weak and wanted this rotten wooden head to come to his senses on his own, he might as well take the initiative himself.

However, when Yan Qing thought about the fact that they were both men and there was no chance for them to be together, his heart froze again.

This is probably why... Lin Nan could never see her feelings for him.

When they arrived at Prince Cheng's mansion, Lin Nan and Yan Qing dismounted from their horses and lowered their heads to straighten their clothes.

The generals and soldiers following behind: "..."

Is this their iron-blooded general?

The guards guarding the gate of Prince Cheng's mansion: "..."

Is this general ill?

After Lin Nan tidied up his clothes, he strode towards the main gate of Prince Cheng's mansion. When he passed by the familiar-looking guard, he threw a token to him and walked in.

"Hey, General..." The young guard on the other side wanted to stop him.

"No need to shout, that's the young master." said the older guard who watched Lin Xiaonan and Lin Xiaoya grow up.

Young guard: "..."

In the second month after taking up the post, just after I had been briefed on the precautions in the palace, I ran into the young master, who had already grown up.

The soldiers standing at the palace gate, unable to advance or retreat: "..."

Their general, the young master of Prince Cheng’s mansion?

Yan Qing stared at the palace gate for a long time, thinking that it was impossible for him and Lin Nan to be together.

Fortunately, he didn't express his feelings.

At least I wasn't as embarrassed as I was in front of that person.

The older guard brought the young master's subordinates into the mansion and asked them to prepare some food to fill their stomachs.

However, Yan Qing said something to the people beside him and left without entering the palace.

Now that I'm back, I want to go home and have a look.

After coming back to see his fourth uncle and fourth uncle, Lin Nan asked his subordinates to go home and then returned to the Lin Mansion.

Seeing his sister smile when she mentioned that man, Lin Nan was so angry that his face turned black.

"Brother, what are you doing? He didn't provoke you." Lin Ya said helplessly.

"If I had known that guy had been stalking you so long ago, I should have beaten him half to death right then!" Lin Nan said gritting his teeth.

“When will you change your sister-con habit? Just because you don’t like her, will Xiaoya never get married?” Lin Mo, who came over, said with a smile.

"Fourth Uncle..." The strong Lin Nan instantly became timid when he heard Fourth Uncle's voice.

"Fourth Uncle, you're here!" Xiaoya walked over quickly and said with admiration on her face.

She and her brother were raised by their fourth uncle, while their father and mother were busy with imperial business. Their fifth uncle was busy with imperial examinations and court affairs, and their sixth uncle had to travel around Yu State all year round for business and had no time to take care of them.

When grandpa and grandma got old, Fourth Uncle took them to the palace to raise them. Calling him Fourth Uncle is more like calling him Daddy.

"Xiao Nan, your sister is about to get married. Isn't it time for you to find someone too? Do you have someone you like?" Lin Mo walked over, sat next to them and asked.

"Yes, brother, you are not a child anymore." Lin Ya said with a smile.

"This..." Lin Nan seemed to have thought of something, and his ears turned red.

Lin Mo and Lin Ya looked at each other, something was happening!

"Brother, do you have someone you like?" Lin Xiaoya asked with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm in the military camp all day long. How could I have anyone I like?" Lin Nan said seriously. But if his ears weren't so red, perhaps he could believe what he said.

"Military camp... Could it be your military advisor? The young master of the Yan family?" They often wrote letters, so Lin Mo also knew who was around his nephew.

Lin Nan: “…”

“Could it be that Fourth Uncle guessed it right?” Lin Xiaoya saw that her brother didn’t say anything and had a strange expression on her face.

"...We are both men, the Yan family will not agree."

"It seems that you like him, and you also know that he likes you." Lin Mo touched his chin and said with sudden enlightenment.

“…”

"It's okay. Just ask your uncle the emperor to issue an order and it will be done. Besides, the Yan family has a large number of servants, so it doesn't matter if there is one less person to carry on the family line."

"...Uncle Four, don't you find it strange? Men being together..." Lin Nan said hesitantly.

Men are different from boys. Boys can have children, but men cannot.

"What's so strange about that? It's fine as long as two people like each other."

"Luckily, Xiaonan was born into a family like ours. If it were someone else, I'm afraid it would be impossible for him to be together. Bring him here to Fourth Uncle tomorrow. If possible, you two siblings can have your wedding together."

"Is this... too fast?" Lin Nan smacked his lips.

He hasn't even expressed his feelings to Yan Qing yet, and now they're discussing their marriage? !

"Your grandparents were able to tolerate your not getting married before, so they can accept this. As for the other things, it's just an extra preparation."

“Since Xiaoya and I are holding our wedding together, let’s postpone Xiaoya’s wedding so that we can get it ready.” Lin Nan said seriously after remembering the original purpose of his return.

"elder brother……"

A groom who was waiting anxiously: "..."

Two months later, the two young masters of Prince Cheng's Mansion finally got married.

Lin Nan looked at his fourth uncle and fourth uncle standing next to his parents, and a faint smile appeared on his face, which usually had very little expression.
