Bei Lanfeng is dead.
He hid a small, sharp piece of porcelain and slit his throat to die.
"He knows that committing suicide will save him some suffering!"
Looking at the cold corpse lying on the ground, Mu Zhaoyuan spoke coldly, her tone tinged with resentment and indignation.
only……
"Mu Hu, do you think his death was a bit too easy?"
Mu Zhaoyuan frowned slightly, her gaze gradually calming as she re-examined the corpse lying on the ground.
The most capable strategist of the Third Prince of the Northern Barbarians, even the secret agents of the Mu family army in the Northern Barbarians could only find out half of the information.
Now, strangely enough, he died so easily in a not-so-famous place, and so simply.
It gave her a dreamlike, unreal feeling.
That night, after hearing the news, Bai Yunxing simply spoke his thoughts in a calm voice.
“This time, if I hadn’t been here, almost no one would have recognized him. If you hadn’t come too, cousin, Bei Lanfeng might not have been caught, and no one would have discovered that the bandits in the mountains were just a cover, and the real problem was the saltpeter.”
“He is very good at scheming and planning, but sometimes we have to admit that human will cannot overcome fate. We had a lot of luck involved, otherwise we would not have discovered Bei Lanfeng, let alone captured him.”
"If someone hadn't intervened during the explosion inside the cave, Bei Lanfeng would probably have already escaped safely."
Bai Yunxing knew that when the explosion occurred inside the cave, if his elder brother hadn't secretly followed and helped him, he would have been saved.
Bei Lanfeng has a high chance of escaping from Dayu territory. His cousin and Mu family soldiers, who are completely unprepared in the cave, will be injured even if they don't die.
Mu Zhaoyuan nodded: "I know what you're saying, but it still feels a little unreal."
"It's like something that seemed hopeless suddenly came to fruition so easily, it feels like a dream."
Bai Yunxing: "Even if it's a dream, it's a good dream, not a nightmare."
Mu Zhaoyuan nodded, looking at her cousin who was both unfamiliar and familiar: "Your parents are doing well now. Grandmother often says, 'Treat others as you would like to be treated, and live with a clear conscience. Although sometimes people without a conscience live better lives, but...'"
“I think that the reason you are in this state now is because the Mu family has a clear conscience, which is why God has seen your good fortune.”
Bai Yunxing: "Of course I know that."
"It's getting late. We need to pack our things tomorrow and start our journey the day after tomorrow. Once we get back to the capital, the Mu family will help us out."
"I have a general understanding of Bai Tian and Jiang Dai's character. They were able to start from scratch, move you from the village to the county, and send all the children in the family to school. They also came up with so many ingenious ways to do business."
"He is probably not the kind of person who likes to freeload or reap without sowing."
Bai Yunxing nodded and chuckled, "That's right, my parents are kind-hearted, hardworking and capable."
...
That evening, in Jiang Dai's room in the Bai family courtyard.
The kind-hearted Bai Tian said, "Tell me, when we go to the capital, can we let the eldest brother gamble on stones? He can detect spiritual energy, that's definitely a cheat code!"
The hardworking and capable Jiang Dai said, "We can let the boss go and knock people out! Then he'll have gold and be even stronger, so he can knock them out even harder! Isn't that a perpetual motion machine? He's awesome! Let's both lie down and relax!"
The two of them talked nonsense for a while, then finally got serious.
Bai Tian sighed and slumped onto the table.
"Tsk... Although I want to get something for nothing and just lie down and relax, if that's the case, we're both too useless. Would the big boss still want to play with us? Let's work hard to make money!"
Jiang Dai nodded: "Yes, when you ask someone for money, they can give it if they want to, and if they don't want to, they have a million reasons not to."
"Isn't that what my dad is like? He didn't want me to go into the entertainment industry, so he cut off my allowance. It's too tiring to be paid by someone else."
Xiao Bai, who was also kicked out of his home, couldn't raise his hand to agree: "Add one!"
"If only I had space, I could really lie down and relax! If I had the means, I could just lie down however I wanted."
