"Yes, yes, it's me! I didn't expect Lord Zhao to remember me so clearly!"
Li Si nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.
Zhao Muyun figured out Li Si's background and then asked, "Aren't you a bodyguard at the Bai family shop in Wuzhou City? Why did you suddenly want to see me? What's going on?"
"Master Zhao, a major event recently happened in the Bai family. I couldn't bear the condemnation of my conscience and decided to leave the Bai family. After thinking about it, I couldn't find a good place to go, so I thought of coming to you for help!"
"I asked around along the way and learned that you were a high-ranking official in Yinzhou, so I left the border to look for you. I unexpectedly ran into someone of yours outside Piantou Pass, and that's how I was able to come to you."
"I can't stand the Bai family's young master's misbehavior. I want to follow you to kill the Tartars. Please take me in."
After Li Si finished speaking, he bowed respectfully to Zhao Muyun. It seemed that he was very sincere.
"Oh? You come to me for help, of course I welcome you very much!" Zhao Muyun smiled slightly.
It seems that what I said at the Bai family shop touched Li Si's heart.
Is it necessary to work so hard for only three hundred coins a month?
"Wait, what big thing happened in the Bai family?" Zhao Muyun suddenly changed the subject and became vaguely worried.
"Oh, it's like this. Young Master Bai's temperament has changed drastically since he went to Shuozhou City. I've secretly heard him muttering to himself several times that he wants to teach Miss Bai a lesson!"
Li Si tried hard to recall, "I don't know what Miss Bai did to anger him."
"Miss Bai?" Zhao Muyun's face turned grim.
The man's intuition was also very accurate. He was just worried whether it was related to Miss Bai.
But the more you fear something, the more likely it will come.
"Young Master Bai then went to Jinyang and returned with a young man in brocade clothes. He then went to Shuozhou to propose marriage to Master Bai, but was rejected."
"Not long after, Master Bai led his men to the Guannei Road to trade, but they were robbed by rebels on the way and died in Yanzhou."
"Young Master Bai has once again brought Young Master Jinyi and Lord Sun to our house, trying to force Miss Bai to marry this Young Master Jinyi."
"Miss Bai refused to obey and was kicked out of the house by Master Bai..."
Li Si told the story of the Bai family in bits and pieces.
Now Zhao Muyun couldn't sit still anymore.
Bai Sheng seemed to be forcing his cousin to get married, but in fact he was trying to fight for the Bai family's property.
This Mr. Bai usually keeps a low profile, which is really unlucky. He died at the hands of the rebels at such a critical moment, which gave Bai Sheng an opportunity to take advantage of.
Miss Bai couldn't handle the situation alone and naturally couldn't defeat people like Bai Sheng and Sun Jizong. Add to that the mysterious young man in brocade clothes, and Miss Bai had no chance of winning at all.
It’s only been over half a month!
Zhao Muyun didn't expect such a huge change to happen in the Bai family.
Miss Bai is a woman, and although she has some skills in the business world, when faced with a situation like this, without anyone to support her, she is no match for Bai Sheng and his gang.
Fortunately, she did not fall into the tiger's mouth, but was kicked out of the house by Bai Sheng.
Looking at this matter alone, it may be a struggle for inheritance rights and property within the Bai family.
But looking at the whole thing in context, Zhao Muyun felt that it was not that simple.
He vaguely felt that it might have something to do with him.
"Do you know where Miss Bai is now?" Zhao Muyun suppressed his inner anxiety and asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know where she went exactly. When I came out of Wuzhou City, I seemed to hear Young Master Bai say that Miss Bai was going to Yanzhou to collect her father's body." Li Si frowned.
"What? Are you sure?"
Zhao Muyun stood up fiercely and grabbed Li Si's shoulders.
"Sir, I...I also heard this from Young Master Bai. Whether it's true or not, I don't know."
Li Si's shoulder was hurt by Zhao Muyun's grab. He grimaced and shivered.
He was so excited when he heard the news about the eldest daughter of the Bai family.
It seems that what Young Master Bai said about the special relationship between Miss Bai and this gentleman is indeed true!
"So, she really went to Yanzhou!"
"There's a rebellion going on in Yanzhou. How can a girl like her help?"
Zhao Muyun's anxiety was written all over his face at this moment.
"How many people did she bring with her, and how long were they gone?" Zhao Muyun took a deep breath and asked slowly.
"I heard they only brought a dozen people with them. They should have set off when I left Wuzhou City."
Li Si frowned, as if he had already told everything he knew.
"Li Si, you came to me and brought me news about the Bai family. I won't treat you unfairly!"
"How about this, you stay by my side and serve as my personal guard. Old Tang, take him down first and clean him up."
After hearing Zhao Muyun's order, Tang Yanhai took Li Si away.
Zhao Muyun was the only one left in the big tent, and he was quiet.
Zhao Muyun took off the hairpin given by Bai Ruolan and looked at it carefully. His heart was in turmoil. The scenes of his few encounters with Miss Bai appeared before his eyes.
"I can't just watch her run into the rebels and fall into their clutches."
"Save her! I'm going to save her!"
Zhao Muyun made up his mind without hesitation.
"Old Tang, call Han Zhong, Lin Feng, Zhao Wen, Pei Liao and the others. I have something important to tell you!"
......
One day later.
On a small path in the middle of the hills in southern Yinzhou, a team of fully armed soldiers were galloping on horseback.
They were dressed in tight clothes, carrying crossbows on their backs, long swords on their waists, and a triangular spear hidden in their boots.
The war horses were powerful, their hooves sounded like thunder, and they stirred up clouds of yellow dust.
