Chapter 94 Apologizing 8

Every person that has attack Wang Ping are died. There is at least 60 bodies in the area. Everybody barely broke a sweat from fighting these weaklings. Everyone was surprised at how strong they have became.

They were afraid at first because the slave traders were the people who tortured them. But they overcame their fear because they wanted to help Lin Yu Yan. They were really happy help Lin Yu Yan because they haven't done much to help her and Lin Yu Yan was the one taking care of them.

Lin Yu Yan is proud they fought well because it means she is teaching them right. Han Bingwen was next to her and was surprised they grew so fast. He did practice and trained them at some point but thought it was useless and no point for Lin Yu Yan to take care of them so much after saving them.

"Amazing job, everyone! But not too loud," said Lin Yu Yan.

Everyone was celebrating and shouting in joy but heard Lin Yu Yan said to be quiet. They were wondering why she said that and quiet down to get an answer.

"The mastermind is still out there and I believe will be coming here soon. They haven't noticed yet. Each one of you will go into hiding and listen to them if they do arrive. This is not training because if you are detected, I will not help you. Once they go away, stealthy return home. No sound, no smell, no presence, got it?" said Lin Yu Yan.

Everybody nodded at Lin Yu Yan. "Good. Wang Ping, carry Teo Wing. She is going to probably wake up soon and we need to take her away from the area."

Everyone else went to hiding. Lin Yu Yan made sure their smell and presence is not detected. So far everyone is hiding well and the air smelled of only blood and the pea bomb.

Once Lin Yu Yan was okay with everyone hiding, she placed note in the middle of the battlefield. Bingwen was confused and asked her, "What's that?" asked Han Bingwen.

"It's a note for the man with the mole," said Lin Yu Yan.

'Wait…" thought the confused Han Bingwen. 'She already knows it was the Slave traders?' He couldn't understand and asked Lin Yu Yan all these questions.

"How do you know it's the Slave trader?" whispered Bingwen, walking away from the scene with Lin Yu Yan.

"There was people who came after us when I was taking my people to the forest. I heard the name Li Muqiu. That's the Imperial Concubine's name and a woman who also wants to kill me," said Lin Yu Yan.

"But what does that have to do with the slave traders?" asked Bingwen.

"Li Muqiu is a very jealous women," said Wang Ping. He heard them talking and casually slipped into their conversation. "She is also trying to kill me and the rest of my younger siblings except her own."

"Okay, but that still doesn't make sense about the slave traders," said Bingwen.

"They are both working together," said Lin Yu Yan. "Anyway, I'll start from the beginning."

They walk slowly as Lin Yu Yan explains the situation.

"It's a pretty obvious. The royal family is running out of money. Their luxurious life may end and it especially with the Emperor, he doesn't want to lose it. You know Jin Baoyu's village? Her village was ransacked by General Lu and his army because the Emperor made them steal their wealth. The fact that Mister Jin and his family has not been touched the the proof. If they wanted something from them, they probably killed them the moment they got it," said Lin Yu Yan.

"It's true. 6 to 7 years ago, I remember getting our treasure room stuffed with items one day," commented Wang Ping, having trouble holding onto Teo Wing.

"The money originally supposed to last at least 10 years but have already spent it all in 5 years. Which is why the tax here is so high and why everyone is barely surviving here.

Restaurants and stores go out of business or they take a loan and get deeper and deeper in debt. People have no money to by food, clothes, or have shelter. Farmers have produce too much food and no one paying for the food.

I suspect people started selling their children to slave traders to get money to get by. General Lu tricks people into his residents and sell off their family and friends for money which is why Luo Bojing and Xie Rushi was in that situation," Lin Yu Yan explained.

Bingwen remember her mentioning about that back at the Mo Chung Da's Pharmacy.
