Chapter 135 So that's the connection
Pei Yi was already there, so there wasn't much more talk afterward.
Mu Bai and his property all returned to Luo City with them.
Their wealth is astonishing.
Judging by its appearance, if she were to be sold in modern times, it would at least be enough for her to become the richest person in the city.
This almost made Yu Wanwan forget that she had been kidnapped.
On the way back, Yu Wanwan looked at Pei Yi and Mu Bai with some confusion.
She originally thought that Mu Bai was Pei Yi's nephew's killer, and that upon seeing Mu Bai, she would hate him so much that she would want to get rid of him as soon as possible.
But it didn't.
When they finished dealing with everything and started their journey, Yu Wanwan felt that Pei Yi and Mu Bai were like old friends who had been separated for many years and had suddenly reunited.
The two of them ended up chatting together.
They were having a very lively conversation.
First, Mu Bai inquired about the progress of the battles between the Great Sheng Kingdom and other countries.
Next, Pei Yi inquired about how Mu Bai had led the people to survive over the years.
Why are there only a few people left now, and they are all elderly, weak, women and children?
Through Mu Bai's answer, Yu Wanwan finally understood why those who survived were all the elderly, weak, women, and children.
This is pretty much what she imagined before.
They were all strong, able-bodied men who sacrificed themselves to protect them and to find food for them.
To be honest, Yu Wanwan admires the crown prince who knows how to respect the elderly and care for the young.
However, it's understandable why his country has fallen to such a state.
Too soft-hearted.
A person who is too soft-hearted cannot be a good emperor.
Upon arriving in Luocheng, they could see from afar a dense crowd of soldiers and civilians welcoming them.
Standing at the very front of the crowd was the fourth brother.
As soon as they saw the car approaching, they rushed over.
His eyes were red and swollen; it was clear he had been crying a lot.
"Grandma, Grandma, you're finally back! I'm so glad you're back. I was going to cry myself to death if you hadn't come back."
“Grandmother, it was all my fault before. I didn’t protect you closely. I’ve made up my mind. I will never go to the academy again. I will stay by your side. No matter where you go, even if you need to go to the outhouse, I won’t mind the smell. I will stay by your side to protect you.”
This also prevents bad guys from having the opportunity to kidnap you.
Yu Wanwan pushed his head away.
"No, I'd rather not. If you're next to me when I'm in the toilet, I won't be able to poop."
"Then I'll wait for you outside the outhouse. Just pretend I don't exist."
Looking at his determined face, which seemed to be on the verge of joining the Party, Yu Wanwan pushed away his head, which was trying to lean closer again, and refused his kindness: "Thank you, but I don't need it."
He's not a kitten or puppy; he doesn't need to watch her go to the toilet.
“I know that Grandmother is embarrassed to refuse me, but Grandmother, you really don’t need to be embarrassed. I am your grandson, and these are things I should do.”
Yu Wanwan: "..."
It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense, it really doesn't make sense.
The only thing she could do was stop arguing with him.
"Grandma, you're amazing!"
“The bad guys kidnapped you, and you actually managed to bring back more than three hundred of them.”
After Lao Si finished speaking to Yu Wanwan, he leaned over to look at the hundreds of people getting off the truck behind him.
"Grandmother, don't worry. Hand them over to me, and I will make them wish they were dead and regret what they did."
Yu Wanwan grabbed him and pulled him away, placing him next to Xu Huai'an.
"Shut up and come back to the academy with Xu Huai'an."
Pei Yi also had the steward of the general's mansion take people to make arrangements.
Pei Yi did not imprison these people.
They were given a lot of freedom, and even a few women and young girls were chosen from among them to serve Yu Wanwan.
This made Yu Wanwan even more convinced that in Pei Yi's heart, he really did not regard Mu Bai as the enemy who killed his nephew.
The rest of the time, Pei Yi and Mu Bai went to discuss serious matters.
Yu Wanwan originally wanted to go with them.
She had just been kidnapped, which made her feel that staying by Pei Yi's side was the safest option.
But seeing how serious they were getting, it didn't seem like the time for her to curry favor.
In the end, she settled for peace and protection.
She looked at He Ping driving and asked him curiously, "Didn't they say that Mu Bai killed the general's nephew? Why are the general and Mu Bai getting along so well?"
Heping's driving skills are now excellent.
You can chat while driving.
He said, "Prince Mu is the general's senior brother. They both followed the same master to learn martial arts. However, they later fell into Anger's trap, which caused Prince Mu to accidentally kill the young master."
That's why the general and Crown Prince Mu became slightly more distant.
The general knew that Crown Prince Mu had not done it intentionally, and that Crown Prince Mu felt very guilty after realizing that he had killed someone by mistake. He had found the general and said that he was willing to pay with his life. He even tried to commit suicide in front of the general, almost losing his life.
The general had already forgiven Prince Mu long ago.
Yu Wanwan was surprised to hear this.
It turns out the two were actually fellow disciples.
No wonder the two of them seemed so natural with each other just now.
Mu Bai truly doesn't value his own life.
They're always thinking about throwing their lives away.
"Actually, if it weren't for Crown Prince Mu, the general would have died long ago. The reason why the general and Crown Prince Mu became disciples of the same master is because the general was poisoned and wanted to join the sect to find the antidote."
Later, it was Prince Mu who risked his life to climb the snow-capped mountain to find a medicinal herb that blooms only once every ten years and only grows on the cliffs of the snow-capped mountain. Only then was the general cured of the poison and survived.
"The general trusts Crown Prince Mu, and likewise, he trusts the people Crown Prince Mu brought, which is why he feels comfortable letting them move freely in Luo City."
"In fact, if Prince Mu had written to the general earlier to inform him of his situation, the general would not have stood idly by."
"He didn't need to go this far at all."
Having learned the cause and effect, Yu Wanwan shared the same thoughts as He Ping.
Honestly, Mu Bai didn't need to take such a dangerous step at all.
If Mu Bai hadn't taken this step, how could she have gotten his entire fortune? It can only be said that this step was well taken.
"However, I understand why Crown Prince Mu took this step. It is because he did this that we realized there were loopholes in our protection of you, Madam."
Fortunately, it was them who arrested you this time.
What if it were someone else?
"This incident will make us more vigilant and we will strengthen our defenses."
Yu Wanwan thought about it and realized that was indeed the case.
Fortunately, the people who arrested her this time were Mu Bai and his group; they are good people.
If it were someone else, she doesn't know what she would have gone through.
By doing this, Mu Bai and the others were telling them that their defenses were flawed and that they had overlooked this part on the ground.
"By the way, how's the epidemic situation in Taiping Town now?"
After asking all the questions she wanted to ask, Yu Wanwan leaned back in her chair, feeling drowsy. Suddenly, she remembered the pandemic and asked another question.
"This is not good. Some of the military doctors have also contracted the disease..."
Yu Wanwan instantly perked up.
"what happened?"
