Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 148 Be prepared
War is extremely cruel, so secretly, he still wants to end the war by persuading the eldest prince, but he also understands that this is an extremely naive idea.

Since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy.

Now that he has decided to start, there must be a result.

"Do you think that if you say this, I can't do anything to you?"

The eldest prince turned his wrist somewhat nonchalantly and said with a slight smile: "When your cannonballs can always be fired, this building has more than just this high wall."

An arrow shot from bottom to top, heading straight for the prince's face. Gu Zhao swung his sword to block it and cut the sword down at the waist.

The eldest prince looked at Gu Zhao with determination, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Gu Zhao, are you sure you want to be my enemy?"

Gu Zhao had an ominous premonition in his heart, but in the end he just pursed his lips and said nothing.

She said that she was able to protect herself and her family.

Then I can only believe her.

The war has finally begun.

Lin House.

Uncle Lin and his wife finally realized something was wrong.

"It's not dark yet, why is the door closed and no one can go out?"

They clamored to go home, but were blocked by Lin Mansion's guards.

At this moment, several rumbling sounds came from outside.

It frightened them.

"What's this?" Second Uncle Lin asked with his eyes wide open.

"Please go back to the guest room and rest peacefully. Things outside have nothing to do with us."

A hypocritical smile appeared on the face of the guard captain: "You two are really curious. If you want to go out and have a look, we won't stop you. This will open the way for you two. But if you want to come back again, it won't be that easy."

The two people looked at each other and finally realized that someone might be surrounding the city, so they ran to the guest room in a panic.

The guard breathed a sigh of relief. He just used words to deceive them and really didn't dare to let them out.

After sending these two people away, he said in a serious tone to the guards on the left and right: "Something may happen to the establishment. We must take precautions."

The two agreed and followed the guards to find Lin Miaofu. Although this was the Lin Mansion and the person in charge was Lin's father, they were hired by Lin Miaofu.

Guard, tell her directly if you have anything.

"Miss, something happened outside. The guards are patrolling all over the house, but it's still too big here. Do you think everyone is gathered in one place?"

Lin Miaofu had thought of this matter. Based on the situation of being trapped in Xiangshan before, centralized management was indeed the most efficient method.

"I understand. Gather everyone in the front yard, and have people set up fires in the yard to boil pots of water." Lin Miaofu said, "Gather everyone together and don't let them move around."

It was a dark and windy night, and they had to guard against not only the officers and soldiers who would break in at any time, but also the bandits who would take advantage of the situation.

Although this is Gu Zhao's property, it is surrounded by families with small assets but without any deep background. They deserve to be robbed. So tonight is particularly important.

The front yard has a higher wall and is more spacious all around, making it easier to see clearly.

Lin Miaofu moved a chair and sat in front of the main courtyard, while the others held torches and stood ready.

However, her father and brother came out soon. They looked at Lin Miaofu seriously and said, "Are there no boys in the family? How about it? You, a girl, are here to preside over this kind of thing?"

Lin Miaofu was startled, then remembered that this was not the Liang Mansion, and she did not need to support her alone all the time. She also had a father and brother who could rely on them.

Suddenly, tears welled up in her eyes. She took a deep breath and calmed down a little: "Then leave this to my father and brother. I will go to the house to accompany my mother."

"That's about it."

Lin Qiyuan rubbed Lin Miaofu's hair and said, "Don't worry, we will be able to protect you."

Lin Miaofu nodded heavily and said to the guards: "Thank you for your hard work. No matter who calls, the door cannot be opened. If someone pretends to be the prince, I will kill him without mercy. Just remember, in this chaotic situation, No one knows what’s going on outside…”

"We have to protect ourselves first, so this door must not be opened."

Lin Miaofu's calm tone seemed to have infected many people present. They slowly broke away from their restless moods, and their faces showed stability and confidence.

A girl can deal with such unknown things calmly and calmly. Do they, the big men, still have to be timid and stagnant?
A promise and a resounding response came from Lin Mansion.

Father Lin coughed lightly, looked at his daughter with some resentment, sighed leisurely, and mumbled quietly... You have finished saying these words, what should I say?
"If you can survive this disaster, Lin will definitely reward you with a lot of money."

Everyone thanked him again. They came here just for money. The Lin family was famous for their generosity, so they would naturally reciprocate the favor.

Lin Miaofu returned to the inner room and sat with her mother.

There was no particularly scared look on Mother Lin's face, but it seemed that Lin Miaofu was a little uneasy. She even comforted Lin Miaofu: "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

"Well, I know." Lin Miaofu whispered: "I'm not worried about us, I'm just worried about... other people."

For example, Gu Zhao, he should be by the prince's side now.

I don’t know how prepared they are? Can you withstand the eldest prince's rebellion?
After all, the mutiny came very suddenly, and they seemed to have just figured out the eldest prince's intentions, and had never made preparations before. If the eldest prince succeeded in usurping the throne, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
"Then you are worried about Gu Zhao?" Mother Lin smiled peacefully: "As the prince of the country, he must have many people around you to protect you. What are you worried about?"

Lin Miaofu lowered her head slightly, she couldn't explain clearly.

Mother Lin took a sip of tea and said, "As the ancients said, a friend in need is a friend indeed. If you can survive this crisis together, you will definitely be able to live in harmony in the future."

"It's just that I didn't expect that such strange things could happen in the capital."

Lin Miaofu didn't say much, she just made some vague guesses.

The other people in the Lin family are just ordinary people, and knowing too many royal secrets may not be a good thing.

No matter who inherits the throne in the future, they will purge those who know the truth, and this secret must be suppressed no matter what.

Seeing that Lin Miaofu didn't speak, Mother Lin sighed and said, "If your marriage hadn't been decided, I wouldn't have let you continue to marry in this capital. I would rather take you back to Yangzhou and find you an honest man." My husband, let me live under my nose.”

"It's better than leaving you alone here and making me scared."
