"Where is the witness? Tell me!"
"Who can prove that it wasn't one of you who did the killing?"
"You, this pretty boy, are still someone else... Besides, is it possible that your wife is also a master, so she is hiding?"
Hearing this, Lu Yun's heart skipped a beat. This matter almost got exposed.
He quickly shook his head, "No, not us."
"Really?" Yang Taian smiled grimly, "Who else could it be if not you guys?"
"Don't tell me that the eunuch we investigated came out and killed him directly. As far as we know, that eunuch has no martial arts skills, although he would be accompanied by experts."
"I was wondering if you had any eunuchs in there. Of course, we've checked, and you don't."
"Bring out the witnesses, or you guys did it!"
At this moment, a loud voice rang out: "You want a witness, right?"
"I, does it count?"
Lu Yun was incredibly familiar with this voice. Wasn't that Bai Xiao? Did he receive this news and come to help him again?
Lu Yun felt a little ashamed inside, and it was extremely embarrassing to ask others to help him.
"Who the hell do you think you are?"
Yang Taian said angrily. As soon as he turned around, he saw Bai Xiao's appearance. He was stunned for a moment, then he knelt on the ground tremblingly, feeling very embarrassed.
"Mr. Bai, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"I was wrong."
"I didn't mean to. I didn't recognize your voice just now. I just said it casually. Don't take it to heart."
Seeing him like this, everyone present was stunned, their eyes wide open. What was going on?
Yang Taian, a deputy commander, actually knelt at Bai Xiao's feet. What kind of thing was that? Was Bai Xiao's identity really that terrifying?
Lu Yun was also a little bit unbelievable, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed quite normal.
Bai Xiao's identity has always been a mystery to him, but through observation, it can be seen that he definitely has a very high status.
"Mr. Bai, why are you here?"
Bai Xiao replied coldly, "These people are my friends, especially Mr. Lu. I had a very pleasant conversation with him. Moreover, when your people died, I was with him. I didn't have any chance to take action, and I didn't see anyone leave."
"Another thing, if I hadn't stopped your Sun Guards from attacking, would they have continued? Do you think this could have been resolved so easily?"
Yang Taian felt a chill on his back and quickly explained, "Mr. Bai is right. We didn't investigate this matter thoroughly, which is why this happened."
"Don't worry, Mr. Bai. I will definitely clear their name."
"That's good to know."
Afterwards, Yang Taian directly let all the people in the caravan go, and Bai Xiao also left with his people satisfied.
After Lu Yun walked out of the prison, he quickly said to Bai Xiao, "Thank you, Mr. Bai, for saving me. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out today."
"After all, being wrongly accused in a foreign country is indeed quite unfortunate."
Bai Xiao nodded gently, "This is all a small matter. After I heard the news, I rushed here without stopping."
"Mr. Lu, it's better to be careful."
"Too much. I'll send someone to pick you up and bring you to my house today so we can have a good drink."
"What do you think?"
Lu Yun frowned and thought, could it be that Bai Xiao is addicted to drinking?
He hadn't done anything! However, he also needed Bai Xiao's identity, no matter whether he approached him intentionally or unintentionally.
Anyway, I need his identity now.
Moreover, when he thought about it carefully, if the identity of this Bai Xiao was really not simple, then if the two of them got along well, perhaps they could learn a lot of information from him.
Can cause destruction...
Wasn't his purpose in coming here to cause trouble? Of course, if he could do it, Du Ruofu would be even better. If not, he could also do everything he could to destroy the relationship between them.
"Okay, since Mr. Bai has invited me so graciously, how can I refuse?"
"Okay, okay."
Bai Xiao said with a happy look on his face.
…
The residence of the Prime Minister.
"Sir, the Sun Guards have been investigating all day and have found quite a few eunuchs, many of whom don't have that thing, but none of them have the surname Du, and they have all been killed."
"But I think it's impossible to find the real Eunuch Lu so easily."
Du Ruofu listened to his subordinates' reports and said coldly, "Keep investigating. Even if we can't find anything, we must make him panic. We must make him afraid to know. He must not provoke us easily."
"good."
"By the way, what about the Barbarian King?"
"Humph! He doesn't have many followers in the court anymore, and he controls relatively few people. What kind of trouble can he stir up?"
"However, the Barbarian King has been quietly trying to win over many tribal leaders recently."
"That's fine." Du Ruofu waved his hand. "Let the Third Prince come to my place. I'll have a good talk with him."
"yes."
“…”
At night.
In the inn.
Ye Jiajia whispered, "Or, I'd better leave quickly and stop associating with these people from the caravan. Today's incident has nothing to do with them."
"If we continue to stay in this inn and walk with them, it will only make them more and more dangerous, and there is a high possibility that we will be killed."
Lu Yun sighed helplessly, "If we just run away like this, it will arouse suspicion from others.
Don't worry, we should keep a low profile. Their caravan won't be here for long, right?"
"good."
Lu Yun suddenly remembered something at this moment, "What do you think about the martial arts competition to win a bride?"
"By disguising ourselves as men, we can get closer to the princess. If we can really become the princess's consort, we can get even closer to the emperor."
“This…” Ye Jiajia pouted proudly and shook her head: “I don’t!”
"Why should I dress up as a man? Didn't you say you could recognize me at a glance? Why don't you go by yourself? You're a grown man anyway, and you'd probably like it too."
Lu Yun didn't detect the jealousy hidden in this. Instead, he shook his head and explained helplessly, "I don't want to either."
"But this is a martial arts competition to win a bride, and I'm not very strong, how can I fight them?"
"Are you kidding me?"
“…”
Ye Jiajia frowned, and suddenly an idea came to her mind, "You and I practiced the same technique."
"Although you haven't even reached the realm of a first-grade master yet, if I can share a little bit of my Grandmaster's strength with you, it will allow you to maintain the level of a ninth-grade master for a short period of time."
"But this only lasts for two hours, and only happens once a month."
