When Su Liang and Gu Ling arrived at Xiaoyue City, the northernmost part of Yin Country, they secretly inspected the city's defense deployment.
Then, they rushed back to Jiaye City on a clear morning at the end of March.
However, they didn't return to the Lin's family. Instead, they disguised themselves as travelling merchants from the northern part of Qian Country, purchased a small house, aiming to secretly investigate the previous incident of Lin family members being arrested and to confirm whether there were any traitors amongst them.
If there truly were any traitors, they would go deeper into hiding once Su Liang and Gu Ling exposed themselves.
As for the funds, Su Liang had a Jade Token that could be used to withdraw silver notes from any money house in the large cities. To avoid her identity as the Ning Family's head being discovered, she used the card belonging to Li's Family, the largest pottery merchant in Qian Country, and the money belonged to Li's family as well.
