Chapter 343: Future First Assistant’s Most Trusted Aides

Translator: CokeZero Editor: Rainystars

Zhao Lingfeng almost cried and wanted to slap himself and curse himself for being too talkative.

Two days ago, his master passed by Qinghe District to visit General Wang.

Then, Zhao Lingfeng casually mentioned the assassination attempt on Xie

Yunjin. Immediately, the master rewarded him with two people to deliver to Xie Yunjin. These two individuals were former soldiers, highly skilled, but unfortunately, they got seriously injured while they were rescuing General Cui Ting. One lost an arm and became a one-armed man, while the other had a crippled leg and became a cripple.

Such individuals couldn’t stay in the military, so General Cui Ting entrusted the master to arrange a place for them. When the master heard that Xie Yunjin had no one to protect him, he ordered Zhao Lingfeng to send these two people to him. However, Xie Yunjin didn’t want them.

If he brought the people back, would the master think he was incompetent and incapable of handling even such a small matter?

Zhao Lingfeng looked at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao with tearful eyes and said, “Those two people are really highly skilled. If they stay by your side, they will definitely be able to help you.”

Just as Zhao Lingfeng finished speaking, Lady Tian chimed in, “Are you talking about those two handicapped men outside?”

Those two men even brought their whole family along. Lady Tian looked at Zhao Lingfeng in disbelief. This must be a joke.

In the room, Lu Jiao’s eyes suddenly darkened, and she quickly turned her head to look at Lady Tian.

Handicapped men? She remembered that in the novel, it mentioned a few trusted confidants of Xie Yunjin. There were two of them – a one-armed bodyguard named Li Nantian and a one-legged man named Zhou Shaogong.

Although these two individuals had lost an arm and a leg, they were highly skilled, and it seemed they were from the military. They possessed both bravery and intelligence and most importantly, they were extremely loyal to Xie Yunjin. In the end, when Xie Yunjin died, they fought with all their might, severely injuring the male and female protagonists before dying themselves while following their master.

Thinking about the two individuals mentioned in the book, Lu Jiao furrowed her brows. Wasn’t it stated in the book that these two bodyguards were gifts from the future Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Yan Prince, to Xie Yunjin? Why were they now being presented by Zhao Lingfeng? Where was the discrepancy coming from?

While Luo Jiao was contemplating, Xie Yunjin, with an unpleasant expression, looked at Zhao Lingfeng, “Are you joking? Sending me handicapped individuals.”

Hearing Xie Yunjin’s words, Zhao Lingfeng helplessly explained, “Let me tell you, these two people are from the military. They couldn’t stay in the military because of their severed arm and crippled leg, so I sent them to you. I assure you, they are highly skilled despite their injuries. Even with a missing arm and leg, they are more than capable of protecting you.”

Xie Yunjin was about to ask him to take the people away when Lu Jiao spoke up, “Why do I feel that these two individuals are quite pitiful?”

Lu Jiao pretended to show a face full of pity, but in fact, she knew that these two individuals would become Xie Yunjin’s trusted aides in the future. So she had to help Xie Yunjin keep them. When Xie Yunjin enters the capital city in the future, these two people could accompany him.

As for the two individuals sent by the Tian family, the book didn’t mention them. This was probably because of her, causing a butterfly effect and changing certain plotlines in the book.

With this in mind, Lu Jiao thought of speaking up again, “Why don’t you let them come in so we can take a look?”

Zhao Lingfeng hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he went out to call the people in.

As a result, a group of people walked in.

Besides the two with the amputated arm and the cripple leg, there were several others following behind. There was an elderly blind grandmother and three small children who were so thin it was as if they hadn’t eaten.

Everyone in the room stared at these people, and then all eyes turned to Zhao Lingfeng.

Zhao Lingfeng felt like crying. He originally thought his master wanted him to arrange for two individuals, but he soon realized that they had brought their whole family along.

“This is Li Nantian, and this is Li Nantian’s mother and one of his sons.” “This is Zhou Shaogong, and these are his two sons.”

Lu Jiao listened to Zhao Lingfeng’s introduction and carefully examined the two individuals, Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong. Despite their amputated arms and limp legs, they exuded a strong aura and their eyes revealed a sharpness. These two were indeed military men and seemed formidable.

While contemplating, Lu Jiao’s gaze fell on Li Nantian’s mother beside him. At a glance, she noticed that the mother was blind, and the face of her young son was pale and emaciated, lacking flesh. However, they didn’t lack courage, as they showed no fear upon being observed.

Lu Jiao also glanced at the two children next to Zhou Shaogong. They were similarly thin and weak, lacking in flesh, but they possessed great courage.

Children raised in military families were truly different. Lu Jiao looked at these individuals and a sudden thought emerged in her mind.

There were four little ones in her family. Although they were still young, they could each have a companion to take care of them. Growing up together from a young age like this would foster stronger emotional bonds compared to others.

These three, along with Lin Xi, made a total of four. This could be considered her gift to the four little ones.

With a flicker of thought, Lu Jiao decided to let them stay.

Xie Yunjin, lying on the bed, was the first to speak, “Zhao Lingfeng, are these the people you brought me? Are you giving me two individuals or two families?”

Zhao Lingfeng mumbled, unsure of what to say. He had no idea things would turn out like this.

Xie Yunjin stared at Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong, wanting to see if these two would turn around and leave.

As military men, they possessed the pride of the heavens and couldn’t bear Xie Yunjin’s obvious disdain.

Xie Yunjin’s words were also a test for them, to see if they could withstand such remarks and leave. If they left, he would definitely not keep them. The Xie family sought loyal servants, not military men with pride.

However, Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong didn’t turn around and leave. They raised their gazes and looked at Xie Yunjin, speaking calmly.

“Master Xie, although we have an amputated arm and a limp leg, we are by no means useless individuals. We won’t freeload. Please let us stay, Master Xie.”

The two of them were originally Captain Cui Ting’s subordinates, and they were entrusted to Prince Yan by the captain due to the injuries they sustained while saving the captain.

The Yan Prince sent them to the care of this Master Xie, indicating that he held high regard for Master Xie. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent them over.

Moreover, during this period, Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong gained insight into human nature. Although they were amputated and crippled, they were truly not useless individuals. However, they couldn’t find anything to do.

Those who saw their amputated limbs and limp legs not only refused to assign them tasks but also looked down on them, treating them like street rats. Some even treated them like beggars.

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong looked at the blind grandmother and their young sons, nearly losing hope. Fortunately, the Yan Prince provided them with such an opportunity, and they naturally wanted to seize it.

“Please let us stay, Master Xie..”
