Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet

The three days of preparation passed in a flash. Lin Wan asked Xiao for advice and prepared sufficient gifts for Marquis Lu and Lu Tingxu.

On the day of the expedition, Marquis Lu took Lu Tingxu to the palace early in the morning. In order to show his importance to this northwest war, the emperor held a grand ceremony for the soldiers at the palace gate.

Lin Wan and Xiao brought the servants of the Marquis' Mansion to watch from the side. They saw with their own eyes His Majesty and Marquis Lu drinking from a bowl of wine, and the soldiers shouted that they would win!

It is majestic and soars into the sky.

After the ceremony, Lu Hou took the lead and set off with a huge army.

Lu Tingxu, wearing silver-white armor, followed behind Lu Hou, listening to the shouts of the soldiers with excitement.

As he followed the team out of the city, he couldn't help but look back at the crowd.

After looking for a long time, he saw Xiao and Lin Wan. Xiao waved at him, and Lin Wan just looked at him with a smile.

Lu Tingxu suddenly felt that the emotions that had been bothering him for many days suddenly stabilized. When his country was invaded, countless people even had difficulty surviving the most basic things. What reason did he have to worry about love?

The wealth and honor of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion were all earned by Marquis Lu through fighting on the battlefield. He was just lucky to be born into the Lu family and has enjoyed a rich life for so many years.

Now, he is going to create his own achievements.

Thinking of this, Lu Tingxu turned around, spurred his horse to catch up with Lu Hou's pace, and walked towards the northwest without looking back.

Lin Wan stood there, watching the team go farther and farther away, until Marquis Lu and his son were completely out of sight, then she accompanied Xiao back to the Marquis' Mansion.

Ever since Xiao heard that Marquis Lu and his son were going to the war, she had been keeping herself together, not daring to show her worries to them and make them worry. Now that the troops had left, she collapsed when she returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

Lin Wan was busy looking for a doctor. Fortunately, it was found that the doctor was just overthinking it. As long as she took good care of herself, she would be fine. Only then did she feel relieved.

Now there are only two masters left in the Marquis' Mansion, Xiao and Lin Wan, and Chunfeng and Yanliu.

Chunfeng knew that Lin Wan had a lot of things to do, and now Xiao was in poor health and needed care, so he volunteered to go to Xiao's side to take care of her.

She had been in the mansion the longest, and had been with Lu Tingxu since childhood, so she was able to chat with Xiao about many things that happened to Lu Tingxu when he was little. She was gentle and considerate when taking care of Xiao, and within a few days, Xiao had gotten much better.

After Xiao recovered, she couldn't leave Chunfeng anymore, so Chunfeng moved into Xiao's yard to accompany her. Although Xiao valued her, Chunfeng was still respectful to Lin Wan and came to pay his respects to her every two days.

All the men in the family have gone to the battlefield. As the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, Lin Wan's most important task is to stabilize the rear of the Marquis' Mansion. Fortunately, she has been accustomed to doing these things since she got married, and the servants in the mansion are also convinced of her actions, so there is no such thing as double-dealing.

As for the master of the mansion, Xiao was now being taken care of by Chunfeng, so Lin Wan only needed to go and greet her every other day. As for Yan Liu, since Lu Tingxu had visited her once before he went to war, and they talked about something, after Lu Tingxu left, she became even quieter, no longer mentioning leaving after giving birth, and resting in the mansion to take care of the baby, she even began to learn to make some small things for the child.

When Lin Wan heard this, she felt relieved. It wasn't that she thought Yan Liu was incapable, but if she really left the mansion, a woman alone outside would encounter many troubles and dangers. Even though Yan Liu was smart and capable, the world was turbulent, and her identity as a woman would often bring countless dangers.

Therefore, Lin Wan hoped that she could live a good life in the Marquis' Mansion, or if she really felt suffocated, she could go to the farm. Although there would be less freedom, at least she would be safe.

More than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and when they received the letter from Lu Tingxu, they had already reached the border.

Lu Tingxu said in the letter that the situation became worse the further to the northwest border they went. The two northernmost cities had already been lost, and the Hu people were burning, killing and looting in the cities. Except for the young and strong who were taken as slaves, all the old people, women and children in the cities were slaughtered.

It looks like hell!

Lu Tingxu described it this way in the letter, and his resentment was expressed between the lines.

Lin Wan looked at the letter in her hand. Every word on it revealed the tragic situation on the border. She sighed in her heart. The people were so innocent, but when the war came, they would always be the first to suffer. She only hoped that Lord Lu could lead the army to drive the Hu people back to the desert as soon as possible and help the people get revenge.

Unfortunately, the northwest is too far away, and even if Lin Wan wanted to do something for the people, she was powerless. She could only burn incense sincerely in the Buddhist temple that the Xiao family visited every day, and pray to the Buddha to bless the war to end as soon as possible.

However, although the war in the northwest did not have much impact on those who were in Beijing, the news of the war spread farther and farther, and some bad guys in the south of the Yangtze River heard the news and took advantage of the war to cause chaos.

Originally, these things had nothing to do with Lin Wan, but she forgot that Lin Fu was there. Soon, Wang came to her with Lin Fu's letter for help.

In every dynasty, there are a large number of believers who pray to gods and Buddhas for protection. This is normal, but in the early days of this dynasty, there were many remnants of the previous dynasty. When the previous dynasty collapsed, they fled to the wild land in the south and took advantage of the simplicity and ignorance of the local people to establish a religion.

Since our ancestor ascended the throne, the court has started to send people to crack down on religion, and at the same time has sent many scholars to spread culture to the people in the southern barbarian lands.

After more than a hundred years of severe attacks, the people of the Divine Cult have been beaten to pieces, but some have still escaped. After all, the mountains and forests in the south are many and deep, and there is miasma in some places. Even the locals who were born and raised there dare not enter the mountains at will.

Therefore, as long as the people of the Divine Religion fled into the mountains and forests, they would be powerless to do anything to them.

Now, because of the war in the northwest, the remnants of the Divine Cult have begun to come out and clamor for the restoration of the Divine Cult. They even claim that the people have suffered so much in this war in the northwest because the court has done too many evil things, so God has punished them. Only by asking God for forgiveness together with them and letting the current emperor personally admit his mistakes can this disaster be stopped.

Many lower-class people were deceived by these remarks and started to make trouble. Some even went to the local county government to beg for mercy. When the news reached the court, His Majesty was furious and demanded that officials from all regions crack down on the cult and not let any of them off.

As luck would have it, the place where Shen Qinghe was located was the most violent area in the Jiangnan region.

Because the court put a lot of pressure on them, and the emperor was very concerned. Now the whole Jiangnan region was dealing with the affairs of the Divine Religion. Whoever did a good job would be able to get ahead, get promoted, and make a fortune. Whoever did not do a good job was incompetent and could just go home.

In his previous life, Shen Qinghe made a name for himself by suppressing the Divine Religion, which made the emperor remember him. However, those good policies and methods of dealing with the situation were obtained by Lin Wan after she went to the local places to learn about them and went through countless trial and error studies.

Now without her help, it would be impossible for Shen Qinghe and Lin Fu to seize this opportunity and make a breakthrough.

Shen Qinghe also knew that his ability was limited, so he never thought about making any achievements, just wanted to keep his official position. Therefore, he asked Lin Fu to write a letter back to the Lin family, asking the Lin family to pay money to help him get a job.

But the funny thing is that these words were all spoken by Lin Fu, and there was no way to tell what he meant. So after Wang received the letter, she just thought it was Lin Fu's intention. She went to find Lin Zhigao, but was scolded for being a woman's opinion. She had no choice but to turn around and find Lin Wan.
