Jin Jianren did not look back. He stopped at the door, said, "I have my own idea" and walked out of the room.
"hiss--"
After he left, Jin Jiande took a breath of cold air. Looking at the broken index finger, his face twitched and his bloodshot eyes widened.
Outside the door, Jin Jianren, who had just walked a dozen steps, stopped in the aisle. Directly in front, a man came with a food box.
It was none other than Princess Yongning.
Jin Jianren didn't go home often during this period. The last time he went home for dinner, Jin Changge didn't come out. After seeing his sister's thin cheeks and those dull eyes, Jin Jianren sighed.
He knew why his sister was so depressed.
"Yongning."
Jin Changge held the food box, stared at the ground with his dull eyes, and walked forward without responding.
"Yongning? Why are you so distracted?" Jin Jianren called again, and Jin Changge raised his head.
"Huh? No. Brother, you are here to see the second brother." Jin Yongning raised his fair face and spoke expressionlessly.
"Well, my second brother broke his leg during this expedition, but fortunately he survived. I'm here to see him."
"But it's okay. I think I can get out of bed after a while of rest." Jin Jianren said, touching his chin.
Jin Changge frowned slightly, looked at the food box and said, "The maids said that the second brother won't eat, so I'm here to bring him food."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Changge walked past Jin Jianren carrying a food box.
Jin Jianren nodded and walked forward with his hands behind his back. After taking only two steps, he stood still and turned around to call out to Jin Changge:
"Yongning, you...you don't have to be too sad."
Jin Changge stopped and turned to look at him: "Huh?"
Jin Jianren continued: "Yanluo Mountain is a famously dangerous place in Daqian. The rebels occupied the natural danger and set up an ambush in the mountain. Although Wukui and Jiande each had large armies, they were trapped as soon as they entered."
"There is nothing we can do about it. We already lost the opportunity when we stepped into Yanluo Mountain. Wu Kui's death..."
Having said this, he sighed, "Don't be too sad. After all, you haven't officially married into the barbarian tribe yet. His death will not have any impact on your reputation."
"I hope you won't mind it and just look at it."
"No, I can see clearly, brother." Jin Changge remained expressionless.
Jin Jianren knew that his sister was proud and would never show her weakness.
Although she had never met Wu Kui, he was well-known as a brave and brave man. According to what he knew about his sister's character, she would definitely admire such a person.
After all, when her father made an engagement for him, she didn't object strongly.
From this, it can be seen that she may have already accepted that she will become Wu Kui's wife and the barbarian king's wife in the future.
It's a pity... If God doesn't fulfill one's wishes, this traitor really deserves to die.
Looking at her expressionless face, Jin Jianren saw through it at a glance and knew that she was trying to show off her strength.
Thinking of this, he walked towards Jin Changge and continued:
"Yongning, the matchmaker's agreement has not been finalized yet. From now on, I will choose a husband you like."
Jin Changge frowned and turned around to leave.
"Don't worry, big brother, I'm fine."
Seeing his sister suddenly turning around and leaving, Jin Jianren touched his nose and sighed softly.
"Oh, silly girl." He shook his head and left.
——
"Second brother, I'm here to see you."
Jin Changge knocked on the door and then stepped into the door, but as soon as she entered, she raised her eyebrows.
There is still a vague smell in the air.
"Yongning, why are you here? I'm going to bed. You can go out. By the way, call a maid in." Jin Jiande covered himself with a quilt and said in a muffled voice.
The smell in the quilt made him feel uncomfortable. He was originally going to ask the maid to come in and clean it up, but after hearing the voices coming from outside the door, Jin Jiande could only endure it for the time being.
He didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of his sister.
Jin Changge put down the food box and looked at his second brother huddled in the quilt with a complicated expression.
"Huh? Yongning?" Seeing that Jin Changge didn't speak after he came in, Jin Jiande poked his head out of the quilt, frowned and called out again.
"Second brother, are your injuries okay?" Jin Changge came back to his senses and asked.
"It's okay. It's just a broken leg, so it's nothing." Although she is a sister, she is still a woman. In front of a woman, Jin Jiande does not want to cry.
Looking at the pale face exposed outside the quilt, Jin Changge sighed uncontrollably.
She knew her second brother too well. When she was a child, she competed with him in martial arts, and he would cry even if she beat him severely.
Although I have lost some time in the past few years, I have been growing up since I was a child. As the second brother, I have never suffered such a serious injury in my life.
What's more, this is a broken leg.
This is already considered half a disability, and then think about the cough he always has as soon as he comes back, and the smell in the air.
Jin Changge had reason to believe that his second brother might have suffered some hidden illness after the battle at Yanluoshan.
maybe....
The second brother is still too pushy, alas.
She looked at Jin Jiande and said, "Second brother, if your leg is broken, just break it. At least you are back."
"So many people died in the battle at Yanluo Mountain, and they were all..."
Upon hearing this, Jin Jiande's body trembled uncontrollably.
At this moment, he recalled that rainy day, with the neighing of war horses, bows and arrows flying, and scimitars cutting off the heads of his men one after another.
Not to mention the pursuit of soldiers lurking in the mountains that seemed to be everywhere. Thinking of that scene, Jin Jiande still feels scared.
When his sister mentioned it again, he hurriedly said: "No, please stop talking."
Jin Changge's eyes kept falling on Jin Jiande's face. Seeing the fearful look in his eyes, she immediately shut up and said nothing.
However, after a few breaths, she still couldn't help but ask:
"Second brother, did Qin Ze really bury so many soldiers and horses in the mountains? How many have you seen?"
Seeing that his sister also doubted his words, Jin Jiande's anger suddenly emerged again.
"Why not? There are people everywhere, all over the mountains and plains!"
"How could I have counted in that situation? If I hadn't led the people from Qianji Battalion to fight all the way and cut a bloody path, I would have died long ago."
"It's a pity that I didn't kill the traitor in the rebellion. If there weren't too many soldiers around him, I could have taken his head even if we lost!" Jin Jiande gritted his teeth and began to fantasize.
Jin Changge raised his eyebrows and asked cautiously: "Second brother, did you have a head-on battle with Qin Ze? How is he doing now?"
How dare Jin Jiande say that he was being chased all the way in Yanluo Mountain without even seeing Qin Ze in person.
If you just say it out like this, you will really lose face.
Without the slightest hesitation, he opened his mouth and said: "Humph, what else can be done? If the traitor hadn't been surrounded by many soldiers and strong generals to protect him, he wouldn't have killed him casually!"
"The rebels occupy the terrain and have many soldiers and horses. If they had come to fight head-on on a flat battlefield, I would have killed them long ago!"
Jin Changge lowered his eyes and continued to ask: "So, he was not even injured?"
Jin Jiande, who was still immersed in his fantasy of killing everyone, said to himself:
"I broke a leg. One day God will accept this traitor!"
"This unforgiving beast has done all kinds of bad things! He will not die a happy death!"
Seeing that he was scolding him harshly and seemed to be unable to listen to what he was saying, Jin Changge rubbed his brows.
"Second brother, remember to eat. I'll leave first."
As soon as he reached the door, he heard Jin Jiande shout: "Change the quilt for me."
"Oh no, call me a maid."
Jin Changge curled his lips and agreed.
After calling the maid, Jin Changge returned to the room. His frown relaxed for a while, then wrinkled again.
After thinking for a long time, she took out the dried sweet potatoes from the bag and started to eat them.
