His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

Yao Ling blinked while asking, "You loudly say revenge full of confidence... but you actually don’t have any plan?" She didn’t want to blame Xiao Fang, but she couldn’t help it ah~ Who was the one who was in fire when talking about revenge? How could the trio not become speechless after knowing this?

Xiao Fang scratched the back of her head. "Please save me ah~ I rarely step out of my manor... In my household, there’s only my mother so there was no scheming there... So, I really have no experience ah~" Xiao Fang explained.

"So?" Lin Jian asked while rolling his eyes. He didn’t want to admit that her innocence was the thing that attracted him the most.

"If you want me to suddenly think of a scheme, I don’t know how..." Xiao Fang admitted.

The trio sighed. That was also true. Yao Ying and Yao Ling had to learn to scheme faster that Xiao Fang, because at Wang Fu, they didn’t have a good standing. Lin Jian learned everything from his works. He needed to lead a troop, so he learned about scheming and planning to beat the enemies. However, Xiao Fang’s family was the epitome of peaceful environment.

Yao Ling said, "The Han Emperor must have been angered to death due to the rumor. But, I have one thing that we could do to make him angry once more."

Yao Ying nodded. "I heard the new bridal dowries had been sent, but knowing it would take a long time for Han Xiang’s death to reach the Han Emperor’s ears, they probably already set off now."

"So?" Xiao Fang asked, feeling confused about where this was going. They couldn’t blame her because she didn’t know that the first robbery was actually their doing.

Lin Jian laughed. "What if the bridal dowries are robbed for the second time?"

Xiao Fang’s eyes lit up and clapped both of her hands, while laughing. She could imagine how that bastard would look like when he was angry and it made her feel satisfied. "That’s a really good idea!" After that, Xiao Fang remembered something, "But... how should we do it? There are only a few of us..."

"Don’t worry about it! Let me deal with it," Lin Jian said proudly.

"What will you do?" Xiao Fang asked curiously.

"I will use my connection," Lin Jian patiently answered. Lin Jian thought that he would ask for his few close brothers in the army this time, after all, Mi Hui’s mission had already finished and they couldn’t use Mi Hui’s people for personal use. His army brothers’ skills were on par with Mi Hui’s people, so he didn’t feel worried at all. However, he needed to make sure that they knew this mission was dangerous and they couldn’t use their identities as Shu people. They would use the same method by pretending as bandits, but they needed to scout and take a look the guards that were sent along with the bridal dowries first, Lin Jian had a feeling that they would increase the guards number and chose better ones after the first blow.

"Can I join the mission?" Xiao Fang asked excitedly.

Lin Jian looked at Yao Ling helplessly. This was a dangerous mission ah~ How could he bring Xiao Fang who didn’t know any martial arts skills?

Yao Ling laughed while saying, "Xiao Fang ah~ we should probably wait for the good news from them. If we come with them, it will only hinder their movement. Besides, don’t you feel afraid that one of them will be able to recognize you?"

Xiao Fang pouted, knowing that what Yao Ling said was indeed true. It would implicate her family once more and it could become a reason for the Han Emperor to eradicate her family. "Well... alright then..."

Yao Ling turned to ask Lin Jian, "Have you found out where the bridal dowries current position is?"

Lin Jian nodded. "It already reached Luo Lan."

Xiao Fang was stupefied. "That fast? It’s only two days away from here. Do we have enough time? If you pretend to be Han Kingdom’s bandits, you need to do it at Han Kingdom’s region."

Lin Jian answered, "Yes. The Han emperor is quite in a hurry, otherwise, his plan would fail. Besides, he needs to save his face... Otherwise, the other two kingdoms will look down at him."

"When will you go?" Xiao Fang asked.

"Tonight... I will go with Yao Ying and some of my friends..." Lin Jian answered.

"Do you want to take my guards?" Xiao Fang offered.

However, Lin Jian tactfully rejected her offers. He knew that they were pugilistic world people, however, their skills were quite lacking for this mission in his opinion, but he didn’t tell that details to Xiao Fang.

Yao Ling asked, "Where will you hide the bridal dowries? There will be many treasure chests and it will take a lot of spaces."

Lin Jian laughed. "Don’t worry about that! I’ve been sent guarding this towns a few times, so I have my own place. Our Lin Manor has one house here and there’s a secret passage there... Only my father and I know where it is."

"Your friends... can we trust them?" Yao Ling asked, feeling worried. After all, this was a really important matter. If someone leaked this, it could result to their death. It was different from Mi Hui’s people, the bridal dowries were split between Mi Hui and them. Those people were loyal to Mi Hui, so they wouldn’t betray their oath. However, they didn’t really know Lin Jian’s friends.

Lin Jian understood her worry and explained, "Don’t worry, Sister-in-law! Just believe in my judgment! They are my brothers that have been through life and death experience with me. We are loyal to each other to the bone..."

Yao Ying patted Yao Ling’s shoulder and said, "Trust Lin Jian."

Yao Ling bit her lower lips but she finally nodded. They were in the same boat and she knew that she should trust Lin Jian, but being careful was also a must. After Yao Ying and Lin Jian promised her, she sighed in relief. They would set out that night while the women would be waiting in the inn.

Yao Ying hugged Yao Ling’s waist and said, "You should wait for me, okay? After this, we will have money to fund our people using the bridal dowries. Not only that, we can start the honeymoon phase soon..."

Yao Ling laughed, "How come ah~? We still need to go to the Han Kingdom’s capital!"

Yao Ying smiled. "It will need more than one week to reach the capital at a leisure pace... We can take it as out honeymoon trip ah~" Besides, he would try to prepare some for Yao Ling and for this, he needed Xiao Fang’s help. After all, she knew better than him about Han Kingdom. He wanted to find a romantic spot to confess his feelings.

Yao Ling nodded in understanding. "It’s a good idea! I will wait for you tonight... so you should be careful, okay?" Yao Ling knew that this was an important mission, thus, she still felt worried for Yao Ying’s well-being.

"So... what will you do for me before I leave?" Yao Ying asked mischievously.

Looking at Yao Ying’s expression, Yao Ling suddenly became so shy and blushed. "What?" Yao Ling pretended to be dumb. She quickly ran away and jumped into the bed, hiding inside the quilt. "I’m tired... so let me sleep..."

Yao Ying laughed and teased her, "You said that you will wait for me tonight... but now, you want to sleep... Which one is the correct one ah~?"

"Sleeping first, then I will wait for you later," Yao Ling answered.

Yao Ying just teased her because he knew how tired she was, besides, he had to save his energy for later ah~ He dived into the bed and opened the quilt, making Yao Ling looked at him in displeasure. "What are you doing?" She asked.
