Lin Jinyun affectionately tapped on her sister’s head and gently reminded her, “Like just now, it’s not appropriate to use the same pair of chopsticks as a boy while eating, even if it’s with your brothers.”
“Ahem.”
Lin Qingluo coughed awkwardly twice, nearly spitting out a piece of pork she hadn’t yet swallowed.
“Actually, Fourth Brother wanted to remind you of this earlier.”
Lin Jinyun’s tone was gentle and full of care, “No matter how outstanding and extraordinary you are, you are still a young girl, not like those smelly boys. There are some things you should still pay attention to.”
“Especially with Cang Lan and Liuyun, they have reached the age for marriage. In the future, when interacting with them, you must be mindful of the differences between men and women, even if you are teacher and student, you can’t be careless.”
“Ahem, ahem.”
Lin Qingluo swallowed the pork and was choked by her own saliva, coughing incessantly.
“Choked on something? Drink some water.”
Lin Jinyun showed concern in his eyes, poured a bowl of warm water from the kettle and handed it to her.
“Mhm.”
Lin Qingluo grinned, took the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
“Sister…”
Lin Jinyun’s eye twitched a couple of times, subconsciously wanting to offer a few more words of advice regarding a young girl’s behavior.
“Fourth Brother, I remember everything you just told me, and I won’t do it again,” Lin Qingluo interrupted him earnestly, shoved the bowl back into his hand, and quickly slid away.
“The stewed pork is ready, I’ll go get Brother Meng and the others to help you serve it.”
“Hey hey, that girl is pretty quick.”
Lin Jinyun held the bowl, watching her dart out of the kitchen, and in the blink of an eye, she was gone.

Deep in the night, the hundred thousand Lin Clan army was ready for battle. Ninth Uncle Lin led the troops to war, with Lin Xiaoyang and other young warriors accompanying them.
Fourth Master Lin personally saw them off, drew his sword, and pointed it in the direction of Qi Kingdom’s capital.
The one hundred thousand-strong army, filled with excitement, raised their fists and shouted.
After the vow-taking ceremony, the army left the Beidi Headquarters overnight, marching quickly along the Northern Territory Mountain Range, heading for the Beiqi frontline.

Beiqi Imperial Palace.
The Beiqi Monarch received a secret letter from a Shadow Guard, read it quickly and his face turned sour instantly.
For a moment, he slammed the letter onto the table, crossed his arms behind his back, and ordered in a deep voice, “Summon the Noble Lord, immediately.”
“Yes.”
The Shadow Guard bowed and respectfully withdrew.
Noble Lord arrived with his usual grace, clad in a stunning red outfit, enchanting everyone present.
“The state preceptor died, the plan failed, and the Lin Clan army is gathering at the border, intending to invade Beiqi.”
Beiqi Monarch’s eyes narrowed dangerously, each word enunciated with gritted teeth, revealing the contents of the letter.
“Ye Luo is dead?”
Noble Lord’s face changed slightly, a trace of ambiguous light flashing in his eyes.
“The Empress did not follow Noble Lord’s expectations, instead of taking back the military power of the Lin Clan, she forced them into a corner, driving them to invade Beiqi and protect the honor of the Duke of Zhen.”
Beiqi Monarch sneered, his eyes full of mockery, “In your opinion, Noble Lord, what should be my next chess move?”
“Push the mastermind behind the scheme to the frontline and let the Lin Clan army deal with them.”
Noble Lord raised his eyebrows and smiled charmingly, “If they stop there and put out the flames of war, all the better. If they can’t, then Monarch can only fight them to the death with the full power of the kingdom.”
“Noble Lord’s thoughts align with mine.”
