Zhao Kun came to the medicine shop, and his father Zhao Zhenbiao happened to be here today.

"Kun'er, why are you back?"

Zhao Zhenbiao was very excited when he saw his son coming out of the mountains.

"Father, not only am I back, but my eldest brother Zhao Fei is also back. He is on the hillside over there. He doesn't want others to know that he is back."

Zhao Zhenbiao was even more excited when he heard from his son that Zhao Fei was back.

"Okay, okay, okay. Now that he's back, I'm relieved." Zhao Zhenbiao said "ok" repeatedly, and his joy was beyond words.

"Brother asked me to ask what is going on at home now."

"Tell Zhao Fei that everything seems to be calm at home now, but there are dangers everywhere. The Flame City will definitely not be peaceful recently, and Duan Wuhen may look for trouble at any time."

Zhao Zhenbiao briefly explained the situation, and Zhao Kun then left Tengfei Pharmacy.

When Zhao Kun told Zhao Fei all the news he knew, Zhao Fei thought for a while and then decided to return to Flame City as soon as possible.

In order not to attract other people's attention, Zhao Kun took Zhao Yuer away first, followed by him and Lin Xuejiao.

They rushed to the Flame City as quickly as possible and sneaked into the Zhao family's mansion at night.

Zhao Kun returned to the Zhao family alone first. When they heard that Zhao Fei was back, everyone was extremely excited.

It wasn't until late at night that Zhao Fei and others quietly returned to the mansion.

"Xiao Fei, you are back. If you don't come back, grandpa will go to the mountains to find you."

Zhao Wuwei held Zhao Fei's hand and was unwilling to let go for a long time.

Zhao Zhenduo and others all had tears in their eyes and were extremely surprised.

Not everyone in the Zhao family knew that Zhao Fei was back. Except for the core members of the Zhao family, Lin Wudi was the only one who saw Zhao Fei.

"Zhao Fei, this is my uncle, Annan Hou Lin Guozhong."

Lin Xuejiao quickly introduced her uncle to Zhao Fei.

"Okay, you are a good boy, you are worthy of my niece."

Lin Guozhong was a military officer and spoke straightforwardly, making Lin Xue's face turn red.

"Hahahaha. Xuejiao, are you embarrassed? Sooner or later you will be the wife of our Zhao family."

Zhao Zhenduo joked beside him.

"Third uncle, you old man is making fun of me again." Lin Xuejiao was even more embarrassed at this time.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Zhao Fei quickly changed the subject.

"Let me tell you the specific situation."

Lin Guozhong looked at everyone, and everyone nodded.

"Now I have a bad premonition that Duan Wuhen will take action against the Zhao family soon. But this time it is definitely not just Duan Wuhen who takes action, but there are other people behind him who are adding fuel to the fire."

Zhao Fei said nothing, and Lin Guozhong continued.

"With the strength of the Zhao family, even ten Duan Wuhen wouldn't be able to attack him. I suspect that the Grand Master's Mansion is helping him behind the scenes, and Duan Wuhen is just a pawn being used by him."

"Uncle, we have no grievances against the Taishi Mansion, why is he dealing with us?" Zhao Fei was a little confused.

"You and the Grand Master's Mansion have no grievances, but we are sworn enemies. The last conflict was settled by me, which attracted Grand Master Wen's attention."

After listening to what Lin Guozhong said, Zhao Fei seemed to understand the mystery: "Uncle, you mean that we can't get into Grand Master Wen's eyes. Because we are close to you, we became the target of his attack. Is that what you mean?"

"That's roughly what it means. Qi Dahai and Huang Xingchen are both from the Grand Master's Mansion. They have always lived in the City Lord's Mansion. Duan Wuhen is greedy for your Zhao family's money, and I heard that the Grand Master wants to remove all the peripheral forces of our Lin family.

.At the same time, he also wants to control the resources of Flame City."

Lin Guozhong continued: "And your elixir has attracted the attention of Master Wen. Even the emperor has now learned about the news."

Speaking of this, Lin Guozhong's face showed a solemn look.

"There is something I must tell you clearly today. The conflict may come soon, and it will be very violent."

Everyone didn't understand what Lin Guozhong meant, and everyone focused their attention on him.

"I'm ashamed to say that this happened because of our Lin family, but it must have something to do with you too."

"In seven days, it will be the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Emperor's accession to the throne. During the celebration, the Emperor will make an announcement, which involves our Lin family."

"The emperor had already revealed the news to our Lin family beforehand. That day he wanted Xuejiao to marry his third prince and make her a concubine."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Lin Xuejiao was like a bolt from the blue when she heard this. She was stunned immediately.

"Uncle, I will not marry into the royal family, let alone that third prince." Lin Xuejiao burst into tears.

This was bad news for her. She knew that the Lin family was in big trouble this time. Once her father rejected the emperor, the Lin family would be doomed.

If you don't marry yourself, you are challenging the imperial power.

If you challenge the imperial power, you will be executed by the emperor.

King Zhennan seems to be very powerful, but can he be more powerful than the Emperor? The Zhao family is very powerful now, can he be more powerful than the Emperor?

If the king asks his minister to die, he must die.

How could the Lin family ever compete with the emperor?

Everyone fell into silence, Zhao Fei's brows furrowed together, and his eyes revealed deep worry.

"Uncle, I will never marry that third prince." Lin Xuejiao once again stood firm.

"Alas! It's not that you don't want to marry, even your father will not agree to your marrying into the palace."

Lin Guozhong sighed, and then continued: "We have been hiding this matter from you, and your father has been trying to find a way. He sent me a letter a few days ago, and he planned to break up with the emperor that day. He

I will not sacrifice your happiness for the sake of the throne."

"Uncle, isn't my father in danger?" Lin Xuejiao was deeply worried.

"Yes, the emperor forced the marriage before, and later I heard that the Grand Master and the King of Zhenbei blocked it. This time, our Lin family may not be able to escape this disaster."

Lin Guozhong fell silent, and his mood was extremely heavy at this time.

"Uncle, do you have any other good ideas?"

"Zhao Fei, what can we do? This is a dead end, and it will be difficult for us to get out of it."

"Uncle, you should have some plans, please tell me your plans first."

"Okay, my second brother and I have already discussed it. The younger generations of our Lin family have all left Zhennan Palace one after another and will arrive in Flame City in the next few days."

"I originally thought that Flame City might be relatively safe, but now it seems that Flame City is as dangerous as the Imperial Capital. That's what I'm worried about. The Imperial Capital is left to my second brother to cover, but I must ensure the safety of the Lin family."

"Uncle, who is coming out of our Lin family?" Lin Xuejiao asked quickly.

"All the younger members of our Lin family fled the Imperial Capital. Grandma Jinhua and your father stayed in the Imperial Capital. Your third uncle also returned to the Imperial Capital. He wants to live and die with your father."

When Lin Xuejiao heard this, she felt very uncomfortable. This was something she could not accept no matter what.

"The Flame City should be monitored by Master Wen now. They may not be able to escape this disaster when they come to the Flame City." Zhao Fei's expression was very solemn.

"I have a way now. I wonder if you are willing to give it a try?"

"Zhao Fei, if you have something to say, it doesn't matter. We have no way out now."

Lin Guozhong looked happy when he heard that Zhao Fei said there was a way.

"Everyone who comes here should not enter the Flame City. Send them directly into the mountains. It is safer than the Flame City. Even if they want to find it, it will take a long time."

"And I have found a more hidden place. Even if the emperor wants to find it, he won't be able to find it in a few years."

"We don't have the strength to fight against the emperor, but we can escape. If we keep the green hills, we won't have to worry about running out of firewood."

"When the Emperor can't find the Lin family, he might have some scruples. Cutting the grass without eradicating the root will definitely leave hidden dangers. He might not touch Uncle Lin for the time being, which will win more for us.

time."

As soon as Zhao Fei finished speaking, Lin Guozhong slapped his thigh: "Okay, this is the best way at the moment."

Zhao Fei's suggestion was recognized by everyone.

"I will start refining the Earth Realm Pill tomorrow. If I succeed, I will release the information. My status as an intermediate alchemist will attract countless experts. Anyone who wants to deal with me must consider it."

"I am currently at the eighth level of the Earth Refining Realm. I can deal with the first level of the Earth Refining Realm calmly. I also have the means to save my life against the second level masters of the God Refining Realm."

Lin Guozhong was overjoyed when he heard this: "Haha, you kid can always bring us miracles."

"Zhao Fei, I'm so sorry. It's our Lin family that has caused trouble to you this time." Lin Guozhong then expressed his apology again.

"Uncle, Xue Jiao and I are close to each other, and we will never leave each other in life or death. Even if the Lin family agrees to the emperor's request, I will not agree. I will still fight with him. Don't mention it again. Our Zhao family

Share life and death with the Lin family."

Zhao Fei's domineering attitude made everyone's blood boil, and Lin Xuejiao was moved to tears.

"I, Zhao Fei, hereby swear that if the emperor dares to bully others too much, I, Zhao Fei, will definitely challenge his imperial power and seek justice for the Zhao family and the Lin family."

In the past, they might have thought that Zhao Fei was fanciful, but now no one doubts what Zhao Fei said.

Because he created so many miracles and turned many impossibilities into facts.
