“That’s right. You should go quickly. We’ll be here to accompany Jiang Yue.” Xue Dabao and Xue Xiaobao both said.
“Alright,” Xue Yan smiled and glanced at Jiang Yue before leaving.
When they arrived at the village entrance and saw the person under the shade of the tree next to the carriage, Xue Yan was a little surprised, “Yiming!”
Then, he walked even faster and stopped a few steps away from Fang Yiming. He and Fang Yiming shook hands
When he saw that it was his classmate and good friend, he understood why his friend did not enter the village to wait for him at his house, but instead waited for him here.
This good friend must have already known that his family had saved Shao Shuting, and Shao Shuting was the general of the South who was still in the village.
It seemed that Shiye didn’t hide his identity at all and directly revealed it to the officers…
Last night, Shao Shuting said that he knew people in the government, but he didn’t tell him or Jiang Yue that he was the southern general. He thought that
Shiye would hide his identity. Even if he let the county government deal with
Liu Guisheng and the others, he was sure that he would not reveal his identity. Shao Shuting had hid it for so long. Why did he stop? He even let everyone in the county government know that he was here.
“Xue Yan.” Fang Yiming was also very happy. “I haven’t seen you for a few months, how are you?”
“Alright, how are you?”
“I’m good too. Pardon my intrusion. I’ve come all the way here, but I didn’t go to your house to pay my respects to your parents.” With that, Fang Yiming cupped his hands and bowed to Xue Yan as an apology.
Xue Yan hurriedly returned the bow, “You are too kind. You must have your own reasons for not coming in.”
“You know me better than me.” Fang Yiming laughed. He looked around nervously. Seeing that there was no one else but his coachman, he whispered, “Someone sent your grandmother’s family to the county office yesterday. That person was the general’s attendant. The man that’s staying with you is the southern general, did you know that?”
“Shao Shuting is the southern general?” Xue Yan looked as if he had just found out. He didn’t want to lie to his good friend, but if he didn’t, he wouldn’t be able to explain how he knew?
“Yes, I am.” Fang Yiming nodded. His voice became even lower. “I just came to remind you that I’ve heard a lot of things since I’m a County Magistrate. I heard that the disputes between the parties in the Imperial Court are particularly

I’m afraid that you’ll be involved in this because you saved General Shao, so I came to remind you to be careful with what you say.”
“Many thanks.” Xue Yan was deeply moved by the sincerity. “However, I’m still young and shouldn’t be involved. Don’t worry.”
Fang Yiming replied and sighed. “Don’t worry. It’s not like you don’t know your talents. You’re still young, you have bouts of potential in you? We’re all inferior to you. If you really don’t want to study and only want to become an official, you must always remember to keep your edge down. That way, even if people know how smart you were in the past, they will think that you’re not as good as you used to be.”
Hearing this, Xue Yan cupped her hands in respect, “I will keep that in mind.”
“Good thing I didn’t come all the way here in vain.” Fang Yiming laughed. After that, he gave his friend a one take. “You look much stronger than before..”
