"First, Bai Sheng came to my father and said that he had learned that my father was still alive and hoped that my father would go and look for him. My father did not hesitate and directly brought people to Yanzhou."
Zhao Muyun immediately realized the problem when he heard it: "Bai Sheng deliberately tricked your father into going to Yanzhou! Bai Shouren is already dead, and the court posthumously honored him. There is also Shuozhou Prefecture in Hedong Road. Who would know about this?"
"Besides, even if Bai Shouren is still alive, why would he appear in Yanzhou? This is obviously a trap."
"Brother Zhao, I was busy with business at the time, and my father left without telling me. I only found out about it afterwards." Bai Ruolan's face was full of regret.
"Bai Sheng has already set his sights on you. What is the background of that young man in brocade clothes?" Zhao Muyun frowned and asked again.
"This...you know this too!" Bai Ruolan was stunned, then looked at Li Si next to her and understood.
This Li Si is Bai Sheng's lackey, and he knows a lot about Bai Sheng's affairs.

What a salt merchant!
Zhao Muyun frowned, not wanting things to get complicated.
"It's obvious. Bai Sheng is deliberately framing your father and forcing you into marriage. If you marry into the Zhou family, you'll fulfill Bai Sheng's wish!" Zhao Muyun said in a deep voice, "This Young Master Zhou will be Bai Sheng's new backer."
"Actually, we escaped from Shuozhou! Bai Sheng forced me to marry Young Master Zhou Er, but I refused!" Bai Ruolan looked sad.
"Okay, it's okay now! Your business is my business, let's deal with it together." Zhao Muyun said domineeringly.
"us..."
Bai Ruolan's face suddenly turned red, and she looked shy.
This made Zhao Muyun's heart flutter, and he felt the urge to hug her. Just as he stretched out his hand, Wang Tiezhu suddenly called out in a low voice:
"Brother Zhao, something's happening!"
"Zhu Zi, you better be okay!"
Zhao Muyun felt a surge of anger in his heart.
