n, Li Yunyao took the initiative and said, “Yesterday on Black Wind Mountain, you mentioned the role of saltpeter and promised to explain it in detail later. I’m very curious, what other uses could th...At the Liu family's doorstep.
Liu Liang excitedly led Liu Chong and his entourage into the hospital.
"Fourth Master, this is my home!"
As soon as Liu Liang entered the Liu family courtyard, he excitedly shouted: "Mother! The Fourth Master is back! Liu Xi, Liu Xi! Where did you old thing go Hurry up and make some tea!"
He shouted for a long time, but not only did he not see Liu Xi, even the maids and servants in the house didn't come out.
Liu Liang was immediately furious.
Just then, Liu Zhangshi rushed out and saw Liu Liang. Her heart skipped a beat with joy.
"Liang'er, you're finally back!"
I immediately saw Liu Chong, standing next to Liu Liang, and my heart skipped a beat.
"Are you... Uncle Four"
The two families hadn't interacted in over a decade, and she didn't even know this elder from the county town.
"Well, let's go."
Liu Chong frowned, but he didn't even glance at Liu Zhangshi. He snorted and entered the house as if it were his own home, surrounded by his servants.
Liu Zhang intentionally lagged behind a few steps and grabbed Liu Liang.
"What's wrong, Mother"
Liu Liang looked at his mother in confusion.
Liu Zhang sighed deeply and lowered her voice, saying: "Your Fourth Master came this time because of Yang Lin, right"
"Yeah."
Liu Liang was puzzled.
Isn't this what we agreed on already
But he didn't expect that the Fourth Master would come in person!
"Let's just have our Fourth Master head back home, shall we" Madam Liu Zhang said earnestly.
"Huh" Liu Liang was surprised, "Why, mom"
Liu Zhangshi sighed with a bitter expression, “Because now we can't afford to provoke Yang Lin!”
Hearing this, Liu Liang didn't take it seriously.
"Mother, rest assured, the people brought by Fourth Master are all skilled individuals. There's even a grandmaster among them! As long as Fourth Master gives the order, he can guarantee Yang Lin will be caught at any time and forced to kneel before us!"
When it comes to Yang Lin, Liu Liang grits his teeth and fumes with resentment.
But Liu Zhang shook her head hurriedly.
"Liang'er, you don't understand! You don't know, Yang Lin is amazing now! He killed all the bandits on Black Wind Mountain a while ago! And just a few days ago, he even shot Zhao Xianwei with an arrow and killed him!"
"What"
Liu Liang swallowed hard, his eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
"This, this can't be right Mother, are you mistaken If he really killed County Magistrate Zhao, wouldn't he have been caught by now"
"That's the problem!"
Liu Zhang lowered her voice again and said earnestly, “After killing Zhao Xianshi, he led the villagers to the county town that night. That night, he ransacked Zhou Kun, the head of the prison department, and Zhao Xianshi’s homes, taking control of all the yamen officers in the county government, even making Zhao Xiancheng his own man. At noon that day, in front of Wu Xianling, he slaughtered people at the entrance of Xiancheng Hall!”
And, I heard that Yang Lin has an imperial decree. The previous emperor appointed him as the Baron of Mount Rely! If it's true, he'd be a lord!
Liu Liang stared blankly for a long time, then swallowed hard.
Unless his own mother said it, he wouldn't believe a single word.
> I've only been gone for half a month, and so much has already happened
Looking back on his experiences in the county town, he now finally understood why Zhong Tao could swagger around the County Magistrate's office, commanding a bunch of clerks to beat them up. He also understood why Magistrate Wu refused to help when he heard Yang Lin's name...
At this moment, Liu Liang was truly scared.
Yang Lin even dared to kill Zhao Xian, the county magistrate. If he were angered...
"Mother, what should we do now" Liu Liang was suddenly panicked.
Liu Zhang sighed deeply: “If your Fourth Master came, it wouldn’t be for your father. Your mother probably thinks he's also eyeing Yang Lin's medicinal formula.”
"But now, we can't afford to provoke Yang Lin! Even if you, the Fourth Master, have the ability to fight Yang Lin, what if he defeats you In the end, Yang Lin would hold us, the Liu family, responsible for this!"
Liu Liang hurriedly nodded.
"So what do we do, Mother"
He was so flustered that he didn't know what to do.
"Alas! Let's just admit defeat in this fight with Yang Lin. I'll explain the situation to him and ask you, Fourth Master, to go back. Even if he still wants to fight Yang Lin, don't let him stay at our place!"
"This..." Liu Liang hesitated, saying, "After all, the Fourth Master is someone we invited. It wouldn't be very good to send him back right after he arrives, would it"
Liu Zhangshi shook her head: “Don’t worry about that so much! Liang'er, is face more important or life Offending your Fourth Master, he’s just angry, no face. He loses face, his relatives lose face.”
"You've offended Yang Lin, you're going to be dead!"
Liu Liang hurriedly nodded. "Yes, yes, yes! I'll go find Fourth Master right now!"
Liu Liang rushed inside, but his legs felt weak.
As soon as Liu Chong stepped into the room, he frowned.
I thought that as a landowner from a village, Liu Youcai's family should have some servants and maids.
He came in for a while, and no one offered him tea. The large house was cold and deserted.
After waiting for a while, Liu Zhangshi and Liu Liang finally arrived. However, Liu Liang told him he had to leave, which infuriated Liu Chong!
Are you kidding me
Liu Chong gritted his teeth.
Liu Liang hurriedly bowed: "Fourth Master, please calm down. It wasn't that we were playing tricks on you, but that Yang Lin... we really can't afford to offend him!"
Be quiet!
Before Liu Liang could finish his words, Liu Chong narrowed his eyes, leaned in close to Liu Liang, and looked down at him with a condescending air, gritting his teeth. "I, Liu Chong, have never been played for a fool in my whole life! You think I'm some nobody you can just call upon when you need me and dismiss as easily as a fly "
"Here comes someone!"
Liu Chong suddenly shouted.
"Here!"
His stalwart guards immediately stepped forward.
"Arrest that deceitful mother and daughter! They're full of lies!"
"If you dare to play me, Liu Chong, you will pay the price!"
The rest of you, go search! Find everything valuable in this house and bring it to me!
"From now on, everything here belongs to me!"
Liu Chong pointed angrily at Liu Liang and his mother.
"Yes!"
The guards rushed forward and immediately pressed Liu Liang and Lady Liu Zhang to their knees on the ground.
The remaining guards immediately scattered, rummaging through everything in search of valuables.
Liu Liang was completely dumbfounded.
"You, you how can you do this This is my home!"
"Fourth Master, Fourth Master! You can't do this! If you get angry and make a wasted trip, we can compensate you! You can't take things from my house! This is robbery!"
Liu Liang roared hysterically.
Liulang felt immense despair and anger as he and his mother were pressed to the ground.
Liu Chong walked over and looked down at Liu Liang with a sneer. "Robber No one has called me that in many years, heh heh, do you think otherwise how I amassed this vast fortune"
Upon hearing this, Liu Liang and Liu Zhangshi's hearts sank to the bottom of a valley.
Just then, a guard ran out from the bedroom behind, with a lecherous smile on his face, and said, “Master, we found a beauty. Would you bestow her upon us brothers”illagers who worked odd jobs. When they heard that Yang Lin was in trouble, they all rushed over immediately.At that moment, the whole hall was completely surrounded by water."Well done, everyone! The...
