After being forced to leave the marriage, I became the wife of a top scholar.

Chapter 180 Everything is ready
Lin Yunche was startled upon hearing the voice; it was the slogan of their Lin family army when they fought the enemy.

It was Uncle Lin! Lin Yunche no longer cared about hiding and ran straight towards Uncle Lin, who was already injured.

He used one long sword to support his body, while the other long sword blocked an attack from a suicide soldier.

Four! He has already killed four people, and now there are five assassins left.

Uncle Lin was now surrounded by the five assassins and had already prepared himself for death.

I never imagined that I, Lin Feihu, would die not on the battlefield, but in this cunning conspiracy—no, perhaps it wasn't even a conspiracy.

It was his bad luck that he ran into these assassins while waiting for Lin Yunche.

He had only brushed past these assassins before, but then he uttered the words "Prince of Huai." The assassins, like dogs smelling blood, pounced on him.

He could kill one dog, but there were nine in total.
He was almost completely exhausted, having just shouted out the battle cry of his Lin family army with all his might.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Lin Feihu charged toward the surrounding assassins.

The assassins were all expressionless, like wound-up puppets, as they slashed at Lin Feihu with their knives.

These assassins were quite skilled, and Lin Feihu was forced to retreat repeatedly until another assassin suddenly appeared behind him.
Lin Feihu had no choice but to close his eyes.

But the sword that was supposed to fall on him didn't seem to come down.

Lin Feihu opened his eyes in confusion, only to hear a very familiar voice beside him.

"Uncle, your skills are amazing! You can kill people with your eyes closed now!"

"A masterpiece!"

Uncle Lin's heart skipped a beat. "Good lad, you've finally come. If you hadn't come, your uncle would have let these grandsons eat me."

It became much easier for Lin Yunche and Lin Feihu to deal with the five assassins.

The five assassins were taken care of in just four or five moves.

"These people are all like blocks of wood. Apart from their high martial arts skills, they're not very smart at all," Lin Feihu said, panting heavily.

Lin Yunche nodded, "Yes, that's what I saw in North Wind City as well."

"It's probably because of the poison in their bodies."

"Poison?" Lin Feihu raised an eyebrow. "What kind of poison!"

Lin Yunche shook his head, "I don't know! But Wanqing can solve it."

Looking at Lin Yunche's slightly upturned lips, Lin Feihu couldn't help but smack his lips twice.

"Cough cough, I thought you were just playing around with that girl!"

"I didn't expect she actually caught your eye," Lin Feihu laughed, but his expression instantly turned ferocious, perhaps because he aggravated his wound.

Lin Yunche helped Lin Feihu up. "Uncle, she and I were just putting on an act."

There's still an ocean between us.

Lin Feihu naturally didn't need to ask what this sea was. "Yes! As long as it gets involved with our Lin family, there are probably only two possible outcomes."

"Either be reborn, or..."

Lin Feihu didn't continue the conversation, but changed the subject, saying, "I can't leave now."

"Take me back to Linjia Village now."

"By the way, about what I found out," Lin Feihu said, glancing around warily to make sure no one was around, and then whispered, "Guess where those people went?"

"The Northern Dynasty." Lin Yunche smiled sideways.

"You know?" Lin Feihu immediately asked, "Did you discover something on your end as well?"

Lin Yunche nodded slightly, "Yes! Those boxes sent to Beifeng City are weapons."

"The Prince of Huai is stationing troops. Apart from the Northern Dynasty, there probably isn't another country with the scale to manufacture weapons."

Lin Feihu was so shocked that his mouth hung open, as if he had heard some incredible news.

"That Prince Huai is really something."

Lin Yunche nodded before Lin Feihu could finish speaking.

“Uncle, now is not the time to talk about this. You are injured, so I will take you to Huaizhou City first thing tomorrow morning,” Lin Yunche said.

Lin Feihu, however, was unwilling. "If a group of assassins die at our hands, the city will probably not be very safe tomorrow, especially now that we have received this incredible news."

"I still need to inform your father of this news as soon as possible."

"Uncle, do you think my uncle's disappearance might be related to Prince Huai?" Lin Yunche suddenly asked.

Lin Feihu frowned. "Your uncle disappeared twenty years ago."

"Twenty years ago, if the Prince of Huai had harbored rebellious intentions, he should have acted on them by now."

"So, Uncle, you don't suspect the Prince of Huai?"

Lin Feihu indeed had no doubts about the Prince of Huai. "People's hearts can change in twenty years. I don't think the Prince of Huai would have harbored any disloyal intentions by then."

Lin Yunche gave a faint "hmm," but something felt off to him.

Wasn't it Prince Huai who accused my uncle of betraying us? So what if it's been twenty years! Maybe he was just delayed by something.

Lin Yunche and Lin Feihu slept in the suburbs for one night. The next morning, Lin Yunche secretly went back to the city. Seeing that Ruixin and Fengniang were living their lives as usual, he turned around and left.

It seems Wanqing hasn't made a move yet, so he still has time to send his uncle back.

Lin Yunche led Lin Feihu on a horse straight to Linjia Village.

Huaizhou City, Wanquan County, Chengjia Village.

Last night, seeing that Liang Sheng was alright, Master Liang went back to sleep, but Madam Liang stayed in Liang Sheng's room all night.

"Madam, Madam, it's already dawn. Why don't you go back and rest?"

Seeing that Madam Liang looked exhausted, the maid offered words of comfort.

Madam Liang glanced at Liang Sheng on the bed. His complexion had gradually improved, and his fever had subsided. She nodded and said, "Alright, you all stay here and keep watch. Make sure the young master takes his medicine on time."

The maids nodded, "Don't worry, Madam, we will do our best."

"By the way, where is Madam Lin? Has she gotten up yet?" Madam Liang now admires Bai Wanqing.

"Reporting to Madam, our benefactor is already in the study with Master. They say they have important matters to discuss, and they've even sent everyone out of Master's room." Madam Liang gave the little maid a slight glare. "I understand!"

"However, regarding Mrs. Lin's visit to our house..."

"The only person who came to our house was a handsome young man; there was no Madam Lin."

Madam Liang nodded in satisfaction, walked out of the house, looked at the white clouds in the sky, and sighed softly, "I hope there will be no more clouds in the days to come."

In the study, Master Liang and Bai Wanqing sat facing each other.

This familiar scene reminded Bai Wanqing of what it was like at the Liu family not long ago.

It's just that Master Liang's energy and spirit are even stronger, and his back is straighter.

The study was so quiet that Bai Wanqing finally spoke first.

"I'm going to sue the Fang family."

Master Liang had already guessed it, so he wasn't shocked at the moment.

"Madam Lin, why are you suing the Fang family?"

Bai Wanqing took out the transcribed manual from her bosom.

"Based on the numerous injustices found here."

Master Liang's gaze fell on the handbook in Bai Wanqing's hand, his eyes showing shock, and then he asked cautiously, "You mean this handbook is full of injustices?"

Master Liang wanted to look at it, but he didn't dare; he didn't even touch the manual.

Bai Wanqing slowly opened the handbook and turned to the page about the Liang family.

"If Master Liang doesn't believe me, he can look at this page and see if there are any errors in what I've said."

As Mr. Liang leaned closer to look at the words in the manual, each word stirred up his memories.

"How could someone know so much about this?" Master Liang choked up a little.

"It turns out that there is someone who remembers the affairs of my Liang family."

"Is he an enemy of the Fang family?" Master Liang asked.

Bai Wanqing shook her head. "He's not."

"No!" Master Liang murmured.

Bai Wanqing closed the manual and asked, "Is what's in the manual correct?"

Master Liang nodded with a smile, "Yes! Absolutely right!"

“Even I only remember a rough time, but he remembers it more precisely than I do.”

"Three years ago today, I gave away two-thirds of my wealth."

"Willingly?" Bai Wanqing asked.

Master Liang's smile faded. "If it were you, would you be willing?"

Bai Wanqing shook her head, "If it's the Fang family, I'm not willing."

"So, you want me to be that kindling, the kindling that ignites the Fang family's fire?"

"Yes!" Bai Wanqing answered crisply, as if she had no intention of hiding anything.

But Master Liang said, "But it was the property we offered up voluntarily back then."

"Our grudge against the Fang family is probably nothing more than a small frying pan."

Bai Wanqing disagreed, saying, "Didn't Master Liang also make two preparations?"

"I have already checked the contracts in the government office."

Mr. Liang raised an eyebrow. "I wonder if Madam Lin thinks there's anything wrong with that contract?"

Bai Wanqing smiled slightly, "Mr. Liang, it's really hard to not notice a sales contract with such a low price!"

"One tael of silver for a thousand acres of land."

"This is the way out you've left for yourself, Mr. Liang."

Master Liang laughed heartily and nodded emphatically, "Good! Good! Good!"

"Now I understand, you've made up your mind to move to the Fang family's house."

But how confident are you?

Bai Wanqing dared not make a promise, as she did not know whether the people behind the Fang family would reveal themselves in order to protect the Fang family.

"Only 50% sure."

After hearing this, Master Liang frowned. "Fifty percent is a bit too little."

Bai Wanqing gave a soft "hmm".

"So, what does Mr. Liang think?"

"Should we add fuel to the fire to make this 50% certainty possible?"

The serious expression on Master Liang's face gradually softened.

"Fifty percent is already quite a lot."

"Back then," Master Liang suddenly realized something was wrong and swallowed his words back.

"it's okay no problem!"

“Then we’ll wait for Madam Lin’s news. I will go to the scene to testify,” Master Liang said firmly.

Having received Master Liang's promise, Bai Wanqing set off home. Doctor Wang, who had just relaxed for a night, tensed up again when he saw Bai Wanqing return.

"Master, you're back!"

"Yes! Dr. Wang, you can turn yourself in tomorrow."

Doctor Wang's lips drooped. "Yes!"

Bai Wanqing, hearing Doctor Wang's lukewarm response, turned around slowly and said, "Don't be afraid, everything is ready, we just need your help."

Doctor Wang forced a smile and shouted, "Yes!"
