"Liu Yun, great Confucian, we're on the same side! We're allies!" Shen Xiongan quickly called out, his tone unusually warm, as if he had just seen a long-lost brother.
This display made Zhu Youji frown. Reflecting on his memories, he realized he didn't actually recognize this "brown bear" figure. He asked, "Who are you?"
Seeing Zhu Youji's confusion, Shen Xiongan quickly explained, "Liu Yun, great Confucian, my surname is Shen. I'm Shen Xiongan, Shen Wenshan's uncle!"
"I saw your appearance in the literary device my nephew sent back yesterday. I was just about to send someone to find you, but you came on your own."
"By the way, he knew you were coming to Yejing and specifically instructed me to treat you well. He said that you had greatly assisted him in the study of Confucianism."
"Really, you have to believe me!"
