"The maidservant brought a message saying that the midwife has gone over, but things might not be going well."
After hearing the butler's words, Lin Zao quickly came to her senses and gave the instructions.
"Quickly take my invitation and send someone to invite Doctor Hua! Doctor Zhang and the others should also be with Doctor Hua; invite them over as well."
"yes."
"Arrange another carriage for me, I'll go take a look first."
As soon as Butler Zhang left, Lin Zao turned around and saw Tang's mother's worried expression, and quickly comforted her:
"Mother, don't worry. With Doctor Hua and the others here, your sister-in-law will definitely be alright."
“I understand. Go and check on Xiaotao. She should feel more at ease with you there.”
Seeing that Tang's mother was alright, Lin Zao didn't delay and quickly went out.
A horse-drawn carriage sped along the wide road, just turning onto a secluded side road.
Suddenly a group of masked men in black attacked with knives!
The coachman was forced to stop, turned around and jumped off the carriage with a swift movement, then grabbed his whip and started fighting with the group of people.
At this moment, several inconspicuous people jumped out from the shadows, each one nimbly and quickly leaping into the ranks of the men in black, forcing them to stay away from the carriage.
Sitting in the carriage, Lin Zao sensed the situation outside. His expression was deep and somber. He knew without a doubt that the group of men in black had been sent by the Yang family.
He said coldly, "Leave none alive!"
The men outside obeyed and quickened their pace. These men in black were all quite skilled, suggesting that Yang Yuechan was determined to take revenge on her.
However, Lin Zao's bodyguards were all handpicked and skilled in assassination and stealth, giving them a slight edge over the men in black in a fight.
The situation on the scene was temporarily stalled, and Lin Zao frowned deeply.
No, we can't delay any longer!
With a wave of her hand, a long sword appeared in Lin Zao's hand. Just as she was about to go out, she heard a whooshing sound as it rushed towards her.
She tilted her head, and an arrow grazed her face and struck the car window next to her.
The arrow almost went right through her head!
Lin Zao looked out the car window with lightning speed, and with a flick of her hand, a crossbow appeared in her hand. Relying on her senses, she fired an arrow in the direction from which the arrow had come!
"puff!"
The faint sound was that of an arrow piercing flesh.
Then a person fell off the roof.
However, the man was not dead after falling. The arrow had pierced through his chest and back, yet he was still able to get up and try to escape.
"Grab him!"
Lin Zao jumped off the carriage with a knife and rushed into the battle. He swiftly cleaved the knife that had almost struck the coachman in the back and took the coachman's place.
The coachman reacted quickly, rushed out of the circle, caught up with the man in black who had been shot with an arrow, and whipped him unconscious.
By the time he dragged the others over, Lin Zao's side was almost finished, with many men in black lying on the ground unable to get up.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the remaining men in black gave each other a look and quickly retreated.
Lin Zao didn't plan to give chase. He had his guards clean up the scene, then jumped into the carriage and continued on his way to Han Qingyuan's house.
When she finally arrived at Han Qingyuan's house, she could hear Li Xiaotao's screams from outside the door.
Lin Zao rushed inside and saw Li Xiaotao's maid anxiously pacing outside the door.
Seeing Lin Zao come over, she happily called out towards the house:
"Madam, you must hold on! The General's wife is coming!"
As soon as Lin Zao reached the door, she heard the midwife's voice coming from inside.
"Mrs. Han, listen to me. Push only when I tell you to, and the baby will be born more easily!"
