When Jiang Chen and the others were brought to the big tent, Liu Huaian whispered beside him:

"Jiang Chen, why don't you show your identity to grandpa."

Jiang Chen said to him:

"Do I still need to show my identity? Grandpa will ask after a while."

At this time, Marshal Jiang Rong, who was sitting behind the case, looked at the three people standing below and asked:

"I ask you, you must answer my questions honestly."

Jiang Chen took a step forward, saluted his grandfather and said:

"Marshal, whatever you want to know, I will definitely tell you everything you know."

Seeing Jiang Chen's sincere attitude, the marshal said to him:

"Since that's the case, that's the best thing. Let me ask you, who is the young man who was most seriously injured by the doctor and what is his origin? I hope you will tell me the truth."

Jiang Chen bowed deeply to his grandfather and said:

"Marshal, the man you are asking about, his name is Fan Yao, and he is from the North. Just three days ago, his family just experienced a catastrophe. His mother, including his two brothers, his whole family and servants, none of them The rest were all killed."

When Jiang Rong heard what Jiang Chen said, even though he was a general who had experienced many battlefields and killed countless people, he was deeply shocked by Jiang Chen's words.

He then asked again:

"Do you know who killed his whole family? Why were they so cruel to him?"

Jiang Chen continued to say to his grandfather:

"Because Fan Yao has a special identity, this is the fundamental reason why he brought about the disaster of annihilation."

The marshal said to him:

"Go on and tell me the whole story."

Jiang Chen continued:

"Fan Yao is the emperor of the Northern Kingdom. He was an illegitimate son outside the country. He grew up with his mother in the Fan family. Until last year, the prince of the Northern Kingdom suddenly fell ill and died. The emperor wanted to take this son into the palace and recognize his ancestor and return to the clan. As the crown prince. This angered the empress who wanted to make Yeluhan the crown prince. She sent people to kill Fan Yao several times, but failed. This time she saw that the emperor was moving and really wanted to make Fan Yao the crown prince. She So we joined forces with Yeluhan, killed his whole family, and chased him all the way, forcing Fan Yao to come here. Fortunately, the marshal did not hand Fan Yao over to Yeluhan, otherwise, his head would be missing again now."

Seeing that what Jiang Chen said was almost consistent with what he imagined, the marshal said to Jiang Chen:

"Since he is from the North, why did you get together with him?"

Jiang Chen glanced at his grandfather and said:

"Because last year, in order to avoid the Queen's pursuit, he took his guards to our Xuanwu Dynasty to escape. As a result, as soon as he arrived in the capital, two of his guards were killed by the people sent by the Queen to hunt him down. At that time, He was injured, and I took him home and treated his injury. From then on, he stayed in the Xuanwu Dynasty to study, and we became friends. The whole story is like this,"

After listening to Jiang Chen's words, the old marshal Jiang Rong understood the root cause of this.He looked at the young man in front of him and instantly felt a sense of intimacy.

In a daze, he felt that this young man was very familiar. Thinking of his conversation with Yeluhan just now, he said to Jiang Chen:

"Young Master, I heard a few words from your conversation with Yeluhan just now. From what he said, it seems that you also took the imperial examination this year. Judging from his admiring attitude towards you, the young master should also be a talented man with a lot of knowledge. .”

Before Jiang Chen could say anything, Liu Huaian, who was standing by, couldn't bear it anymore and said to the marshal:

"Grandpa Jiang, he is not only full of knowledge, haven't you heard that even Yeluhan admires him very much?"

When the marshal saw Liu Huaian next to Jiang Chen, he immediately called him grandpa. He felt that this kid had a sweet mouth, so he said to him:

"You are a young man with a very sweet mouth. You call me handsome grandpa directly. At my age, I can indeed be called grandpa."

Liu Huaian was not a talkative person before, but now because he is happy, he can't hold back when he talks.

He said to Marshal Jiang Rong:

"Of course the marshal can be called my grandpa. You and my grandpa are as close as brothers. Shouldn't I call you grandpa?"

When Liu Huaian said this, Jiang Rong stood up from his chair.

He looked at Liu Huaian expectantly and said:

"You said your grandfather and I are as close as brothers, then who is your grandfather?"

Liu Huaian looked at Jiang Rong who stood up and said:

"My grandfather is the late Lord Protector Liu Shangyun. Aren't you two good brothers who lived together through life and death together?"

As soon as Liu Huaian finished speaking, Jiang Rong walked out from behind Shuai An.

He came to Liu Huaian excitedly and said:

"Are you really a descendant of Lord Protector Liu Shangyun?"

Liu Huaian nodded to him and said:

"Yes, my grandfather is Liu Shangyun, the protector of the country. He often mentioned to us that when you were young, we fought together. That's why I called you grandpa."

Jiang Rong said repeatedly:

"In that case, of course you have to call me grandpa. It's great. I didn't expect to meet an old friend here. Your grandpa and I really have a life-long friendship. I think about it when I was young. , we followed the late emperor to expand the territory and build a splendid country. But later, after I was stationed in northern Xinjiang, the opportunities for us to meet became less and less. I didn’t expect that he passed away before me last year. If it weren’t for official business While I'm here, I will definitely go see him off on his last journey. I'm here to talk to you, but I haven't asked your name yet."
