At the same time, Lu Rui was saying to Lu Yu, "Today when we came back, it seemed like we encountered assassins, all of Lin's family dark guards appeared, tsk tsk tsk, fortunately we walked separately, otherwise they wouldn't have cleared the people so quickly."

  Lu Yu frowned, "Who is it?"

  "Who knows," Lu Rui said indifferently, "I didn't even see the person's face before I was dragged away. But this time the Lin family caught a live one, so there's some breakthrough at least."

  This is the difference between a noble family and a humble one. Even though Lu Rui was born out of wedlock, what he knew from being influenced by his surroundings wasn't any less than Zhou Tong who had been carefully nurtured.

  Shang Danlan and Shang Danyue were somewhat bewildered, but the two were good at observing expressions and saw that Shang Mingjie's face had turned white, so they were certain that something must have happened.

  So as soon as he got home, he blocked the person and wouldn't let go.

  But this time Shang Mingjie was very stubborn, no matter who asked him, he shook his head uniformly and said: "What's wrong, didn't we all return safely?"

  "What's wrong with you? You're so anxious that your face has turned pale!"

  Shang Mingjie lowered his eyes and said: "I had a stomachache at that time, maybe it was because I ate too much."

  "You're lying," Shang Danju said with a pout: "Do you dare look into our eyes and say that?"

  Shang Ming Jie looked up at her, Shang Dan Ju pouted and said, "Look at your guilty little face."

  "Alright, alright," Shang Danzhu didn't know what had happened, but still instinctively defended her brother, and couldn't help saying: "As long as everyone returns safely, isn't that enough? If this continues, Old Lady will find out and ask questions."

  Shang Danlan and Shang Danchun didn't get to the bottom of things, but they still had some lingering doubts in their hearts.

  A secluded courtyard in Lin's family compound was brightly lit, with two people abandoned in the corner, only one of whom was hung on a gallows.

  Yi Han hung up his whip and looked at Lin Qingyuan with a shake of his head, "No use, he's injured quite badly, or else it would have worked."

  Lin Qingwan stood aside with a calm face, looking at the Blood Person in silence for a long time. After half a beat, she said: "Let Dr. Xu come and save him. How many people can still have the courage to die after dying once and coming back to life?"

  "Even if he didn't invite us, we know who sent him. Why bother with such formalities?" Yi Han pointed at the emblem on his chest: "Someone like this shouldn't be left alive, in case of retaliation..."

  "The Lin family and the Liao people have a blood feud, but that's a national feud," Lin Qingyuan clenched her fists and said: "Once or twice is fine, but if they don't give up, do they want to make my Lin family a chicken for them to show off their power? My Lin family will never become someone else's hunting target, let alone a chicken, even a monkey won't do! I'll save people and make them know that even if our ancestors are gone, my Lin family is not something they can offend."

  They can kill once, and afterwards they will definitely not let go. Lin Yu has killed too many Liao people, it's too difficult to resolve the contradictions between the two sides.

  While she was alive, it was possible to watch her, but what if she died? At that time, could Lin Yuhong escape from their assassination?

  Lin Yuhuan is fine, what about her children and grandchildren?

  The descendant of Liao is endless, she doesn't want this assassination to continue.

  But she has no way to dissolve hatred now, and can only intimidate them, making them dare not stretch out their claws again.

  Yi Han glanced at the assassin and said in a low voice, "After the last attack, Lord Sun killed many of the Liao people's spies. They're probably here for revenge this time. Miss, do you really want to save him?"

  "Save him!" Lin Qingyan looked at that face and said: "Wait for him to come back to life before telling me, have someone keep a close eye on him."

  "Yes!"

  Lin Qingwan turned around and was about to leave. As she passed by the two corpses on the ground, her footsteps paused slightly. She let out a sigh and said, "Bury them."

  These two people were caught and poisoned themselves on the spot, without giving Lin's family a chance to interrogate them. The person on the pillar was more unlucky, he was the one holding the knife and also the leader, after being counterattacked by Jiang Nan, he was slow for an instant and his chin was knocked off, the poison bag was taken out, naturally there was no opportunity for him to commit suicide.

  No one can say that living is more painful than death, but to Lin Qingyuan, being alive means having opportunities and hope, while dying is the real end, where everything in the world is no longer under one's control.

  You may be gone without feeling anything, but the people who care about you may have to endure ten times the pain. Just thinking about it makes Lin Qingwen feel unbearable heartache.

  Bai Mei and Bai Feng saw her face as cold as frost, both of them somewhat shrinking back with lowered heads to follow behind.

  Lin Qingwan saw the round moon hanging in mid-air and involuntarily stopped in her tracks, looking up at the sky without a word.

  The current Zhao family is no longer a problem for her, does Lin Jiang know that Liao Guo has always had such deep hatred towards the Lin family? What role did Liao Guo play in Yu Bin's life trajectory?

  Was he just a bystander watching the Zhao family push the only bloodline of the Lin family to the brink of extinction, or did he also get involved?

  If it is so, then it's no wonder that Lin Yubin has never had a good ending in any of his lives.

  It's just her now, and she doesn't dare guarantee that she can resist the power of a country.

  She spoke more fiercely and harshly, but the confidence in her heart was insufficient. Her power was only in Jiangnan, and to protect Yu Bin and Lin Shi, relying on these was not enough.

  The old lady stood for a long time, Bai Mei rubbed her arm, feeling a chill creeping into her bones. She couldn't help but exchange a glance with Bai Feng, the two of them silently gazing at each other for half a day. In the end, Bai Feng was defeated and carefully stepped forward, saying: "Auntie, it's getting late and dew is heavy, let's go back to the house."

  Lin Qingwan came back to her senses and looked up at the moon in the sky again. She then pulled her cloak tighter and stepped back into the house.

  The light in her room was still on, and Lin Qingyan didn't notice it, walking straight into the inner room. As soon as she entered the house, a round head popped out from under the quilt, and even Lin Qingyan, who was brave, was startled.

  Lin Yuhu woke up a bit dazed and yawned, asking, "Auntie, why are you back so late?"

  "Almost scared me to death," Lin Qingyan patted her chest and asked, "What are you doing here?"

  Lin Yuhong pulled his head back into the quilt and muttered: "Tonight I'm going to sleep with Auntie."

  Bai Mei and Ying Yan walked in hastily. Lin Qingyan waved her hand and said, "Go down, put the hot water outside."

  Lin Qingwan didn't like people entering her inner chamber, so Lin Yuhong ran here to sleep. Yingyan also didn't dare stay in the house; she was originally waiting in the ear room, but ended up being too sleepy and fell asleep without holding back.

  It wasn't until Bai Mei entered the ear room to fetch something that she came to.

  Lin Qingwan simply washed up and then took off her hair accessories, letting her hair down before going to bed.

  Lin Yuhbin has sobered up a lot and is now leaning against the bed with his quilt, "Auntie, why do you always scatter your hair every time?"

  Lin Qingwan reached out and untied her hair tie, letting her hair flow down, and smiled, "Is this much more comfortable?"

  Lin Yuhong carefully sensed it and shook his head: "No feeling."

  Lin Qingwan lay down and said: "This is just a habit problem, I think it's comfortable this way."

  "But Auntie didn't used to have this habit......" Lin Yuhong was somewhat perplexed, she had slept in the same bed as her mother and aunt when she was a child.

  Lin Qingyan's expression didn't change as she said, "I've changed. Occasionally letting down my hair and feeling very comfortable."

  Lin Yuhong didn't dig deeper, instead she wrinkled her small nose and said: "Auntie, today Er Gege and Jiang Nan are both acting strange, you've also been out for a long time, did something happen?"

  Lin Qingwan thought for a moment and decided not to keep it from her, as it was always better to raise her vigilance, lest something happened in the future and she wouldn't know where the problem lay.

  There will always be a day when she has to leave her, and there will also be a day when she needs to be independent.

  Lin Yuhuan was apparently stunned. She had guessed that something was wrong, but she hadn't expected it to be such a big deal. Had she unknowingly walked through the Ghost Gate?

  Lin Qingwan held her in her arms, stroking her hair and said: "Yubin, the guards of our family are the result of several generations' accumulation. Although they are few in number, they are the backbone of our protection. Jiang Nan is not only your driver but also your guard. You must remember that no matter where you go or what you do, you must bring him with you, understand?"

  Lin Yuhu nodded and bit his lip, asking, "Auntie, will the Liao people keep chasing us to kill us?"

  "I don't know," Lin Qingyan said softly, "maybe someday both sides can put aside their hatred, and it's possible that with the passage of time, they will forget, but for now, it's clearly impossible."

  Lin Yuheng lowered his eyes, "Is it because Father passed away and the main branch didn't have a son, so they think they can kill off the Lin family's main bloodline to establish their dominance?"

  Otherwise, these two little girls didn't bother anyone, why did they have to be killed?

  Lin Qingwan smiled and praised, "Yu Bin has become clever, no wonder we have become the chickens that they use to intimidate the monkeys. The last time's matter must have provoked them."

  "Didn't they attack us first and ambush us? Are we not even allowed to counterattack?"

  Lin Qingwan patted her back and comforted her: "Don't be angry, it's better to sleep than to waste your energy like this. There's always tomorrow, we're not in a hurry."

  Now that the problem has been discovered, Lin Jiang will not let her leave before the situation is clear, so instead of hurrying back, it's better to calm down and think of a plan.

  Lin Qingwan looked at the person in her arms and sighed. After nearly three years of daily interactions, she wasn't a wooden person, so how could she not have feelings?

  No matter what, she must see her safe and happy, so that she can leave with peace of mind.

  Lin Yuhong fell asleep slowly under her aunt's gentle patting, having no idea that the person beside her had been awake all night.

  The next day, when Lin Yubin opened his eyes, Lin Qingwen had already returned from exercising on the back mountain. She looked at Lin Yubin who was still lying in bed and smiled, "Did you forget that you have school today?"

  The person in the quilt stiffened, slightly widened their eyes, then lifted up the quilt and crawled out. She took a glance at the sky outside and couldn't help but exclaim, "Auntie, why didn't you wake me?"

  Lin Qingwan burst out laughing: "It's nothing, being late is no big deal, at most Mr. will make us stand for half a day as punishment, it'll be good to refresh ourselves."

  Lin Yuhu looked at her aunt who was gloating, couldn't help but grind her teeth, quickly washed up and didn't even have time to eat breakfast, picked up her skirt and ran out.

  Yingyan hastily picked up the food box and chased after her, "Young mistress, slow down, there's still time."

  It turned out that time was really not enough because they were stuck in traffic!

  Not bad, just traffic jam. Today, there are many people who got up late like her, so a large number of people almost arrived at the foot of the mountain at the same time, and there is only one narrow road to climb the mountain, they have to queue up to go.

  Lin Yuhu, who was supposed to be the closest to Qingfeng Mountain, ended up being the last one.

  In front of her were Lu Ling and Cui Rong, the two lifted the curtain and burst out laughing at her, "Yu Bin, you got up later than us, hahaha..."

  Lin Yuhong: "......"

  Lin Yuhong said this is not funny at all.
