"Master Mo, you have also seen that the other party is always trying to harm my wife and me. We are lucky to be able to see Master Mo alive."

"Hahaha, Cheng Shan, you will definitely have good fortune in the future!" Mo Congwu still admired him very much, especially because he never refused when he was needed to help. Coupled with his natural strength, he was indeed a good general in the army!

As for the existence of Chen Lin, Mo Congwu obviously heard about it. As soon as he returned to the provincial capital, Chen Lin was detained by Mo Congwu, and even Zhao Changliu could not see Chen Lin.

"Changliu, you're finally back." Old Man Zhao saw Zhao Changliu return from the funeral hall of Mrs. Zhao. He rushed over, grabbed his shoulders, and began to scold him: "Your good daughter-in-law is too cruel. She actually killed her mother-in-law!"

"We must divorce her and report her to the authorities to make her pay with her life!" Old Man Zhao said bitterly, "You don't know, when your wife was at home, she didn't respect us, made us work hard, and was reluctant to give us good food and things to use. That's not all, she also secretly cooked for her own benefit, and was unfilial to us as her parents in every way."

"Third brother, it's because you were too indulgent towards Chen Lin that she had the guts to kill even our mother." The eldest daughter-in-law of Zhao ran out and started to curse Chen Lin to death.

It was rare for Boss Zhao to just stand there and not say anything.

The second and first wives of the Zhao family couldn't wait to tell everyone what had happened along the way.

Zhao Changliu walked to the mourning hall, knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Zhao: "Mother, it is my son who came back late and hurt you."

The Chu family members were all watching.

Mrs. Chu lowered her voice and spoke to the eldest and second wives of Chu: "No matter what happens later, don't get involved. I don't think it's a good idea for the Zhao family to put all the blame on Chen Lin. Although Chen Lin is also very bad, the Zhao family has not been good to Chen Lin either."

"Mom, will Zhao Changliu divorce Chen Lin?" Mrs. Chu asked curiously.

In fact, this matter is considered a big deal in the village. How could a daughter-in-law kill her mother-in-law directly? This is simply a serious case of treason. In the past, when things were peaceful, she would be thrown into a pig cage.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I will divorce my wife, otherwise Boss Zhao will not be able to maintain his reputation in the future."

"But, with all the chaos out there, will the imperial court still recognize your achievements?"

"Why not? Even if you don't, a scholar still needs a reputation," said Mrs. Chu.

At this moment, Zhao Changliu finished bowing to Mrs. Zhao and was called into their house by Old Man Zhao.

Old Man Zhao lowered his voice and asked, "Changliu, have you seen that bitch Shen Lin? She has the artifact in her hands. Hurry and grab it. Then our whole family will pack up and leave with you. Don't stay here. The artifact should have belonged to our Zhao family. Shen Lin stole it, and the villagers used it for so long. It's time to return it to its rightful owner."

Zhao Changliu was a little surprised and subconsciously grabbed Zhao Lao's arm: "Dad, what did you say? Chen Lin's artifact belongs to our family?"

"Yes, I discussed this with your brother and the others. Shen Lin's changes only started after she came to our house. So, the artifact must be ours. I just don't know how she got it."

"Aren't you her husband? Go ask her and get the artifact back. If she wants you to save her, just hand over the artifact and she'll save you."

At this time, Old Man Zhao said that Zhao Changliu was Chen Lin's husband. It was simply shameless to do so for the sake of profit.

Zhao Changliu didn't say anything. He asked Old Man Zhao and others to help deal with Mrs. Zhao's funeral. He quickly turned around and went to find Mo Congwu.

Mo Congwu was in the cell with his personal guards at this moment.

Chen Lin was tied to the torture device, his body covered in blood, and many parts of his body were bloody and mangled, obviously he had been tortured.

"Still not telling?"

Mo Congwu whipped her in the face and said, "If you hand over the divine weapon you have, I will spare your life. I heard that you were poisoned by Miss Zhou. I can also go to Miss Zhou to get the antidote. Otherwise, you will die within three days."

Shen Lin was a little confused, but still shook her head: "I can't take it out, I can't take it out..."

"What can't you take out?" Mo Congwu didn't dare to get too close, for fear that Shen Lin would suddenly have something in her hand.

Chen Lin didn't say anything, just kept shaking her head and said she couldn't take it out.

Mo Congwu felt that it was bad luck and asked the jailer to continue to torture him.

At this moment, someone came in and said to Mo Congwu, "Sir, Zhao Chenshi is here to see you."

"Oh, Lord Zhao is here?" Mo Congwu turned around and walked out, and saw Zhao Changliu who had been waiting for a long time. "How come Lord Zhao has time to come here?"

Zhao Changliu smiled bitterly, "Lord Mo, the main reason I came here this time was to retrieve the artifact and report to General Xie. After all, Chen Lin was my wife before. I went back and asked my family and learned that this artifact might be related to my family. So I thought of looking for Chen Lin now to test her opinion and perhaps find out the location of the artifact."

"Do you have any orders from General Xie?" Mo Congwu said seriously.

Zhao Changliu reached out and took out the letter paper, but it had General Xie's private seal on it, which was not made up by Zhao Changliu.

Mo Congwu took a look and put the private message away. Others didn't know that Mo Congwu was General Xie's man, they only knew that the two had some dealings. But in fact, since the court was in chaos, Mo Congwu no longer concealed his relationship with General Xie. This was also to avoid other states coveting his military forces.

"Please come in, Lord Zhao."

"Thank you, Master Mo."

Zhao Changliu walked in hurriedly. As soon as he walked in, he saw Chen Lin's miserable appearance, but he only frowned for a moment and did not have any extra reaction. He applied to meet with Chen Lin alone.

Mo Congwu kindly reminded him: "Master Zhao, please be careful."

"Thank you, Lord Mo, for your reminder. I will pay attention to it." Zhao Changliu waited until there was no one in the cell before he walked to Chen Lin and squatted down. He called Chen Lin in a low voice to wake her up.

When Shen Lin saw him, she immediately reached out to him: "Husband, Changliu, save me."

A strong desire to survive flashed in her eyes.

Zhao Changliu pursed his lips and said, "Okay, I'll save you, but you injured half of my soldiers. I can't explain to General Xie unless..."

"Unless what?" Shen Lin's reaction was a little slow, but she was still gentle to him.

"General Xie will not hunt you down unless you hand over the magic weapon." Zhao Changliu told the truth.

Shen Lin said subconsciously: “Impossible, it’s so far away, how do you know that I have a magic weapon in my hand?”

"Someone wrote a letter to the general, and then the general assigned a task. I accepted it and came here. I originally wanted to take you back to Youzhou." When Zhao Changliu said this, both of them fell silent.
