After separating from my mother-in-law, I raised my children, built a house, and filled the granary

Her body was covered with bruises and unhealed wounds, covering her chest, back, thighs, calves, wrists and neck.

Except for her face, her entire body was covered in scars.

Chunhua screamed in fear, "Godmother, you...those people deserve to die, all of them deserve to die!"

He was the most docile child, but now he was full of hostility.

Those people really deserved to die. It was her incompetence. She should have helped her mother kill those people.

Instead of hiding in fear behind a dilapidated statue.

"It doesn't hurt so much now." Yang Xiangru comforted Chunhua.

Shen Yunwan was also shocked by the scars on Yang Xiangru's body.

A weak woman must have suffered so much harm to be covered with scars.

And he can stand up for her.

This woman who was bullied every day did not let her heart become darkened and still maintained her human kindness.

What an incredible thing.

Put yourself in her shoes. If it were her, if Shen Yunwan had been abused for a long time, she would probably become an anti-human person.

Hate everyone and want revenge on everyone.

How could I not care about my own life or death just to save others?

Shen Yunwan's eyes were slightly hot, and she looked towards Yang Xiangru with more respect. Some people may appear clean physically, but their hearts are filthy.

Some people may appear dirty physically, but their hearts are very clean.

Shen Yunwan gently applied medicine to Yang Xiangru.

I don't know how long it took before I finished applying medicine to the wounds on her body.

These scars are caused by today and some are left in the past.

New wounds plus old wounds, leaving him covered in scars.

Yang Xiangru put on her coat and looked at Shen Yunwan and Chunhua who looked a little depressed.

He comforted her, “These are just superficial injuries, they don’t hurt much now.

When I was in the hands of human traffickers before, I suffered much more than this.

It's okay, don't look so sad."

Shen Yunwan took out a stack of banknotes from the cabinet and handed it to Yang Xiangru, "This is all the banknotes I have, more than ten thousand taels.

Take it and plan your and Chunhua's life well in the future." Yang Xiangru had never seen so much money before and kept declining it.

This is so much money that an ordinary person cannot earn in their entire life.

Besides, she is young, can embroider, and can go out to work and earn money to support Chunhua.

"This is for you and Chunhua's life, not just for you.

In the future, if Chunhua has the chance to meet a suitable man, she will ask you to marry her."

Shen Yunwan stuffed the banknote into Yang Xiangru's hand.

The Lin family still has Lin Chengfeng, so the children's future life will not be a problem.

And if Yang Xiangru and Chunhua left the familiar place and went to an unfamiliar place.

It is quite difficult for two women to start over and support themselves.

Having money can solve many problems.

"Chunhua, talk to your godmother. I'm going to wash up." The blood-stained undergarment was changed by Shen Yunwan when she came back.

Packed in a bag.

She took the bag and a set of clean clothes to the bathhouse.

After going out, I saw that the oil lamp in the study was on.

Lin Chengfeng and Liu Ze have not come out since they entered the study.

In the study room.

Lin Chengfeng, wearing his inner garment, and Liu Ze, wearing his outer garment, sat next to each other.

Both of them looked very serious.

Lin Chengfeng's expression was even more dead silent.

“I know you’re from the same place as her.

Although she didn't say it, but..." Lin Chengfeng looked at Liu Ze, his eyes firm, as if he knew everything, "I know, you are not the original Liu Ze."

After hearing this, Liu Ze was not surprised, and did not even look at Lin Chengfeng, but looked at the teacup in his hand.

"Liu Ze was my classmate. He was a little clever, but selfish and timid, and didn't have the vision or ability to be that ambitious.

Even... you now no longer look like Liu Ze."

Lin Chengfeng picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.

"Your strategy, your courage, and your insight all give me a deep sense of crisis.

I even know the secret between you and her, a realm that I can never enter. Therefore, I had a certain degree of hostility towards you before.

If my past actions have caused you any trouble, I would like to apologize to you."

"No." Liu Ze spat out two words coldly and glanced at Lin Chengfeng.

“It didn’t bother me.

I do have different feelings for Yun Wan."

Liu Ze openly expressed his feelings for Shen Yunwan without any guilt.

It was as if his feelings for Shen Yunwan were natural.

She didn't feel anything was wrong in front of Shen Yunwan's husband, Lin Chengfeng.

Lin Chengfeng squeezed the teacup, then gently put it down.

"I know you're angry, but, Lin Chengfeng, even if we follow the first-come, first-served rule, you're the last to arrive.

To be honest, if you are good enough and excellent enough, I would be more satisfied.

But you don't even have the ability to protect her.

Now you are here, telling me this calmly.

It's just that I haven't found a way to let her escape unscathed.

She wants to ask me, if possible, is there any way to let her return to her original world.

It's better than her dying in your dirty and ugly dynasty, right? "Liu Ze's words were like a needle, piercing the bubble wrapped around Lin Chengfeng, leaving him standing naked in front of Liu Ze.

He had never felt so powerless and humiliated as he did at that moment.

And the shame is brought upon oneself.

Liu Ze didn't look at Lin Chengfeng's extremely ugly face, "You know the laws of Dayue better than I do.

Even if Eunuch A Shun was not present at the scene of the previous few incidents, he could deny it, but Wang Wenyuan was killed in full view of everyone.

Besides, do you think the current emperor only sent Eunuch A Shun?

Were there no other hidden warriors before this?

So, instead of wasting time here with me, you might as well think about how to get the current emperor to show some mercy.

Anyway, all the laws here are no match for that person's final word, right?

Isn't this the characteristic of your place? Power is above everything else. Whether it's the people or the law, they all serve only those in power, don't they?

Lin Chengfeng looked at Liu Ze with a somewhat dejected look.

This person's views are the same as Shen Yunwan's.

Thinking of the look Shen Yunwan gave him in front of the dilapidated temple, he felt even more frustrated.

"I will go to the palace and tell His Majesty that even if it costs me my official hat or even my life, I will find a chance for her survival. But..."

"It's just that the emperor's heart is hard to predict, and one of the dead was Prime Minister Liu's daughter. You're worried that you're powerless, aren't you?"

Liu Ze looked at Lin Chengfeng and said, "Lin Chengfeng, you are indeed a rare talent, but the dynasty you live in is destined to make you so.

You can only bend your back and submit to those who have more power than you.

This is your destiny."
