Mu Yunyao's heart relaxed. Luckily, her mother didn't insist and she coldly glanced at Madame Li, "Grandmother, if you survive, you can find me in the capital a year and a half from now. Who knows, there might be people who want to help you take revenge!"

"Yao'er, Yao'er, don't you abandon your grandmother. The spirit of your father in heaven, he will definitely be hurt … Yao'er, don't go … Mu Yunyao, you little bitch who deserves to die a thousand times, you will die a miserable death! "

Mu Yunyao took two steps forward before slowly retreating. "I almost forgot one thing. Grandmother, Riverside City is too close to Yan City. Just in case, you shouldn't speak any further."

"You … What are you going to do. Don't come near me, don't come near me. "Ah …"

Throwing the bloodstained knife into the bushes, Mu Yunyao stood up and slowly tidied up her skirt. "The sins of the heavens can be violated, but the sins can't be survived."

"Ugh …" "Woo woo …"

Mu Yunyao walked out of the forest and took Su Qing's hand. "Mother, let's go. We have already done our best."

Su Qing nodded, "Yes."

The two of them slowly walked into the city and did not attract anyone's attention.

Riverside City and Yan City were even more complicated in terms of manpower. The streets and buildings were much wider and more imposing. There was a pier here which connected the north and south through the water.

From here, it would only take two and a half days to enter the west mausoleum. As they headed south into Huai River, the waterway connected to all directions, and they were able to go to all parts of Jiangnan. As a result, customers from all over the place gathered, and the environment became more chaotic.

This was also Mu Yunyao's first time coming to River City. She found a medium-sized inn and paid for a room there, "Mother, please rest first. I'll go downstairs to take a look. If there's anything to eat, I'll bring it here."

"Yao'er, we're not familiar with this place, you …"

"Mother, you can rest assured. With my current appearance, even if I were to walk on the street, no one would come near me. Did you not see the waiter who just took us upstairs? He almost threw me out as a beggar."

Su Qing stretched out her hand and pinched her levelling arm, "You, you've become even more mischievous."

Mu Yunyao raised her face for Su Qing to pinch. She giggled and acted dumb, "No matter how mischievous you are, you're still my mother's child. You can't not recognize me even if you want to."

Su Qing couldn't help but laugh as she let go of her hands. When she saw the slight blush on her face, she couldn't help but cry out, "You child, your mother is in so much pain, why are you not making a sound?" She knew that the child's face was tender and that he had deliberately lightened his grip on her, but his face had turned completely red.

"It's fine, mother. I don't even feel it myself." As Mu Yunyao spoke, she reached out to tug at her own face.

"Child, quickly let go, let go!"

Mu Yunyao smiled with her eyes bent, "Mother, I'll be going. Wait here, don't ever go out."

"Alright."

The beggar looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. When he heard these words, he looked at Mu Yunyao weakly. "You're familiar with him, what's the matter?"

"Which ship is more reliable?"

"Why are you asking about this? Even if it's reliable, you still won't be able to do it." The beggar curled his lips in disdain. Just as he was about to turn his head away, he saw Mu Yunyao take out two coins and put it in front of her mouth to blow on it, then she hurriedly sat up and enthusiastically replied, "The most reliable is the Zhou Family's free sailing. There are passenger ships, merchant ships, and cargo ships, but they're a bit more expensive."

Mu Yunyao threw the copper coin in her hand over, then stood up and walked towards the pier. She was going to explore the depths first. It had been a long time since she had come to Jiangnan, and she was also on the water. If something were to happen to her, it would be troublesome.

As he was walking, he suddenly heard a haggling sound.

"Just one person, and you're asking for twenty taels of silver? I say, Qian Ya, aren't you being too black-hearted?"

"Master, look. Is he an ordinary person?" "Look at this body size and look at this physique. He knows martial arts. He's an expert at buying things to watch over the yard."

"This skinny and sickly looking man knows martial arts. Tsk, 20 taels, just wait and smash your hand!"

"Ah, this lord, don't go, don't go, we can continue discussing, fifteen taels, ah, ten taels …"

Mu Yunyao inadvertently glanced at him, then abruptly stopped when she saw the person who was lying on the ground with her hands and feet tied up. This person … This person … She quickly walked over and tried to get a closer look, but someone pushed her and she stumbled.

"Where did this beggar come from? Get lost!"

Mu Yunyao raised her head and kicked at Fang Zi. "Qian Ya, did I blind your dog eyes? I don't even recognize you?"

When he raised his head to carefully look at Mu Yunyao, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. When he casually swept his eyes earlier, he only saw her ashen face, but now that he looked carefully, he realized that the young man in front of him had red lips and white teeth.

"Aiya, young master, why are you dressed like this? Which show are you playing?" This little one has eyes but is unable to recognize Mount Tai.

"What a broad mind. How much does this person sell for?"

"Young master has really good eyes. This person only wants 20 taels of silver. Take a look, he knows martial arts and has a lot of face when he is taken out."

Mu Yunyao walked with her hands behind her back and extended her leg to kick the person on the ground. "Raise your head. If it's appropriate, I'll buy you."

The person on the ground raised his head, revealing a pair of ice-cold, empty eyes.

Mu Yunyao's heart trembled, as if a blade was scraping against her back. It was indeed him, the most unafraid of death guard by Prince Jin's side!

After she had become Prince Jin's concubine, she had always seen him silently following behind him. She had thought that he was just an ordinary guard, but at that banquet, she had seen him use his sword to kill an assassin.

Later on, she heard the maid talk about how this guard had been bought by Prince Jin when he met him on the street. It was said that he had only spent ten taels of silver. She had observed him curiously only once when he raised his eyes to look at her. His eyes were empty and cold, as if he was hiding blood in the sky, causing her to tremble with fear. When she went back at night, she had nightmares for two consecutive days and never dared to size him up again.

"Young Master, how about it? How awe-inspiring is it!"

"Five liang, if he is willing, I will buy him."

"This won't do, it won't do, five taels is too little."

"If you don't want to sell it, then so be it." After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. She hurriedly took a few steps forward, "Little Young Master, add a little more and I'll sell it to you."

"Then six liang, no more."

"This... "Sure, young master. Here's the indenture contract, take it."

Mu Yunyao took out six taels of silver and threw it over. She ran to the person on the ground and squatted down. "I spent six taels of silver to buy you. From today onwards, I'll call you six taels of silver."

The trafficker stepped forward and untied the rope, passing it to Mu Yunyao, "Little Young Master, this person is yours."

Mu Yunyao kicked his calf, "Not dead yet. If you're not dead, then get up and leave with me." Then, without waiting for him, she stood up and left. After walking a dozen steps and hearing footsteps behind her, she couldn't help but squint her eyes. It looked like the heavens had doted on her for her rebirth, and she actually met Prince Jin's personal bodyguard. It couldn't be helped, but she liked it.
