Chapter 171 Extra 5: Making up for one's crime
After hearing Shen Ning's words, Si Yan immediately perked up. At the same time, someone outside spoke up: "General, it's me, Fan Ming."

Fan Ming was once a soldier under Si Yan, and they worked together for nearly ten years.

When Si Yan heard his name, he immediately relaxed his guard, patted Shen Ning on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, it's an old acquaintance, I'll go out and take a look."

When Shen Ning heard that it was an old acquaintance, he was not so scared anymore, but he still huddled on the bed: "Oh, then you go."

Fan Ming stood outside the cave, watching Si Yan limping out and suddenly kneeling down.

"General!"

Si Yan lowered his eyes and glanced at him, saying in a cold tone: "Don't call me that, I'm not a general anymore, and this is not the place for you to come."

Fan Ming stood up and looked at the darkness in the cave. He couldn't help feeling sad. It was really sad that the once powerful general had ended up in this situation.

He got straight to the point and said, "General, now there is an opportunity to leave. I can transfer you to Anyang. You have to open mountains there. Although it is also hard work, the conditions are definitely much better than here."

"The most important thing is that there are some bandits who have been recruited and are worried about no one to discipline them. If we do a good job, it will be a great achievement, and it will be just around the corner for us to make amends for our crimes."

Fan Ming became more and more excited as he spoke, and he wished he could take Si Yan away right now.

But Si Yan's expression became colder and colder, he sneered and said, "Did Zhao Qingxun ask you to come?"

Hearing him calling the new emperor by his name, Fan Ming's heart skipped a beat: "It is indeed the new emperor who secretly agreed to this. Otherwise, we wouldn't dare to do it, right?"

Si Yan said in a cold tone: "The new emperor who plotted to usurp the throne and has no legitimate reason expects me to lead his troops. Do you think it's possible?"

Fan Ming said anxiously, "That's not the case, General. You have really been led astray by Zuo Yi. It has long been found out that the Crown Prince is not of the late Emperor's bloodline, but was born of the late Empress's adultery. It is inevitable that the Third Prince will take the throne."

"The new emperor has now let bygones be bygones, and if you lower your posture, there is still a chance that this matter can be turned around."

As soon as he finished speaking, Si Yan said sternly: "People with different ideals cannot work together. Go now." Fan Ming was anxious: "Even if it's not for yourself, think about your sister-in-law. You can't let her live such a hard life with you."

Si Yan had a blank expression on his face and reiterated, "I told you, it's not necessary."

Fan Ming sighed, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He felt that Si Yan would not be able to listen to anything now. He turned around to leave, and suddenly thought of something.

"General, do you know who plotted against you?"

That was the time when Si Yan’s leg was broken.

Speaking of this, Si Yan closed his eyes tightly and pursed his thin lips, as if he was very reluctant to recall the past.

Fan Ming continued, "It was Zuo Yi who did it. You are as close as a brother to me. You know, he was about to die, but he still threw dirty water on you, trying to give himself a chance to survive."

Si Yan still stood there motionless, and Fan Ming suddenly understood: "You already knew it, right? Why deceive yourself? If you change your mind, come back to me. The old rules apply, just leave a secret code."

After Fan Ming left, Si Yan stood outside the cave for a long time before going back.

Shen Ning hadn't slept yet. Seeing him come back, he quickly went over and asked, "What did you say?"

Si Yan was in no mood to elaborate, so he just shook his head and said, "It's nothing important."

Shen Ning lay back, feeling a little lost. The person who could come to see him at this time must be someone he trusted very much.

That's nice, not like her.

Only when something happened did I realize that there was no good person around me and that I had been living in fantasy for more than ten years.
