In the yard, several red plum blossoms are blooming, and the red stamens are covered with white snow.

Pei Yanli stood in the pavilion and looked at it, whispering, "I didn't expect General Lin to have such skills?"

Speaking of her father, Lin Tingwan couldn't help but smile, "These plum trees were selected by my father at the market and planted by him one by one." After saying this, she seemed to have a clue, "If my father doesn't want to be a general in the future, it would be nice for him to be a gardener."

Pei Yanli chuckled, "That won't work. If General Lin becomes a gardener, who will guard Liangzhou?"

After hearing this, Lin Tingwan felt a chill in his heart. When he needed his father, everything was fine. But after the Nanman were pacified, his father replaced the Nanman and became a thorn in his side!

Emperor! How cold and indifferent!

Lin Tangning pretended to be innocent and naive, "Your Highness, why did you suddenly come to Liangzhou?"

"Something happened."

Seeing Pei Yanli's obviously cold attitude towards her, Lin Tangning was indignant and said with a smile, "Sister Fang, why didn't you tell me? If you had known earlier that His Highness was coming, we could have come together and someone would have taken care of us on the way."

Pei Yanli frowned, "What can you do for me?"

The smile on Lin Tangning's face froze instantly. She had never expected Pei Yanli to say that.

Pei Yanli turned around and looked at Lin Tingwan, "Are you going back to Shangjing at the beginning of the new year? You can go back with me."

"Your Highness, that's not necessary. Liangzhou is great. I want to stay here for a few more years."

Hearing this, Pei Yanli lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Tangning was surprised and asked, "Sister, aren't you going back? Auntie misses brother so much, and wants to wait for you to go back and ask about brother's recent situation!"

"Look at me, I have no sense of propriety when speaking. Sister, don't think too much about it. It's Tang Ning's fault. Auntie must have missed you too, but she forgot to mention it when she told me last time."

"It's nothing, I don't care." Lin Tingwan glanced at her, with no worry or joy in his eyes.

Lin Tangning was shocked. If Lin Tingwan had heard her say this before, she would have definitely looked like she was crying, and then His Highness would have felt disgusted and annoyed with her.

Pei Yanli frowned and looked at Lin Tangning with dissatisfaction, "Yangyang, Madam Lin missed you very much. Knowing that I came to Liangzhou, she specially asked me to bring you the clothes she embroidered for you. I will have someone deliver them to your courtyard later."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Lin Tingwan bowed.

As they were talking, snowflakes were flying everywhere, as thin as feathers.

Pei Yanli looked up at the snow-covered courtyard, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Tangning smiled and said, "Your Highness, the snow in Liangzhou is really beautiful. I have never seen such a scenery when I was in Shangjing. It would be great if it could snow in Shangjing."

"It snowed in Shangjing."

"What did your Highness say?"

Pei Yanli's voice was very low and Lin Tangning didn't hear it clearly, but Lin Tingwan, who was standing very close to him, heard it. She looked at Pei Yanli in surprise. Lin Tangning was right. It never snowed in Shangjing City. The only snow was when she died.

Lin Tingwan rubbed his forehead and said, "Your Highness, I didn't get enough rest last night. I feel a little tired now, so I will go back first."

Pei Yanli looked at her worriedly, frowned and said, "I'll take you there."

Lin Tingwan shook her head, "No need, Your Highness, just enjoy the snow here." After that, she bowed and turned away without waiting for Pei Yanli to react.

Lin Tangning's charming voice came from behind, "Your Highness, it's almost time to eat. Is there anything you don't want to eat?"

The wind and snow were so strong that Lin Tingwan quickened his pace.

……

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lin Tingwan saw Lin Tangning's personal maid Hongdou standing in the courtyard from a distance.

When you are in power, many people will flatter you, but once you lose power, everyone will hate you. In her previous life, she was imprisoned in Changle Palace, and she had no servants around her. Only Hongdou secretly brought her meals.

Thinking of Hongdou's kindness, she hurried forward and asked, "What are you doing standing here?"

Hongdou saw that it was Lin Tingwan who came back, and she hesitated but said nothing.

"But Lin Tangning asked you to stand here?"

Hongdou quickly shook her head, "No, I am waiting for the Second Young Miss here."

Lin Tingwan was skeptical. Lin Tangning had been punishing his servants for a long time. "It's so cold, you should go back to the house quickly. Don't stand here. What if you get frozen?"

Hongdou bit her lower lip, a firm look flashed in her eyes, and she knelt directly in the snow, "Second Miss rescued a man from outside. His body was so burned that he is now confused. I'm afraid he won't survive without seeing a doctor."

Lin Tingwan frowned. When did Lin Tangning have such a kind heart? "Yuzhu, go and get Doctor Zhang." Then he said, "Take me to see the man."

"Yes."

The man lay unconscious on the bed, his eyes closed but his brows slightly wrinkled. His skin was as white as jade and his face was rosy. He was so handsome that there was no one like him in the world. He looked like a young man from an aristocratic family.

Lin Tingwan now no longer had to wonder why Lin Tangning suddenly became kind.

Hongdou said worriedly, "Miss, look at your face, it's all red."

Lin Tingwan couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Don't worry, the doctor will be here soon."

Hongdou nodded, "He has wounds all over his body. I scared you when I changed his clothes just now."

"You changed his clothes?" Lin Tingwan frowned. "Lin Tangning is really kidding! You are a woman who is still in the boudoir. How can you get married if this matter gets out?"

"Don't worry, Miss. It's not a big deal." Hongdou smiled and looked very happy. "Miss is really kind-hearted and considerate of me."

Lin Tingwan let out a long sigh. Hongdou is only twelve years old now, two years younger than her. In her previous life, she was often bullied by Lin Tangning, who would beat or scold her for no reason. It was heartbreaking to watch.

Just at this moment, Yuzhu came with Doctor Zhang.

"Let him see it quickly." Lin Tingwan pointed at the man on the bed.

Doctor Zhang nodded, walked quickly forward, put his hand on his pulse, and lifted the quilt. The tight undershirt on the man was exposed to Lin Tingwan's eyes.

"Is that your undershirt?" Lin Tingwan whispered.

Anko nodded.

Lin Tingwan then looked around the room. It was obviously for servants to live in. This was Hongdou's room. Lin Tangning was really calculating. People needed to be saved, but it had nothing to do with her, and she was to take all the credit.

Doctor Zhang looked serious after examining the wound. He walked up to Lin Tingwan and said, "Miss, please ask the attendants to leave."

Lin Tingwan waved his hand. Doctor Zhang used to be a military doctor. Later, when he was old, Lin Mingqian couldn't bear to see him being alone in his old age so he kept him in the mansion. Now he must have something important to tell him.

Doctor Zhang said seriously, "Miss, where did this person come from?"
