Although Lu Jinfeng and Chen Mu desperately wanted to know more about Lin Mo, Lin Mo refused to tell them. The two of them had no other choice but to suppress the curiosity in their hearts.

Shangguan Bai went to the Shangguan family and didn't know what had happened to them. He walked over only when the sun was setting and the sky was completely dark did he walk over under the moonlight.

"Why is he so dejected and dejected, as if he has been ravaged by someone." Chen Mu Mu had been waiting in the living room the entire time, and when he heard the sound of Shangguan Bai walking over, he teased him upon seeing Shangguan Bai's pitiful appearance.

Having known Shangguan Bai for so long, he always looked like a noble son in front of others. Even when she thought about how he had to maintain his pitiful face even though he had been so sick last time, she didn't think that he looked that bad.

However, today, Shangguan Bai's expression was one of utter embarrassment.

"Something happened." Shangguan Bai Su knew that she had a venomous tongue, but she did not mind. She gave her a dispirited smile and said: "You were waiting for me?"

"I plan to leave tomorrow. I've just eaten dinner, so I'll loiter around here to see if you can return. Then, I'll say my goodbyes to you." Seeing that he was truly exhausted, Chen Mu Mu brought him into the living room and poured him a cup of hot tea. "What happened to the Shangguan Family? I've never seen you like this before."

"Nothing important. It was just a dispute over the silk problem." Shangguan Bai said.

Chen Mu Mu immediately understood. "The problem isn't with the silk, but with the dispute it caused?"

Shangguan Bai nodded. Talking to someone who understood people meant saving trouble.

"And now, have those matters been resolved?" Chen Mu Mu asked.

"Not yet." Shangguan Bai smirked and took a sip of hot tea, he finally recovered after a while, "I estimate it will take a few more days."

This was the sorrow of a large family, with many contradictions and disagreements, not to mention that Shangguan Bai's mother, Madame Shangguan, was not favoured. Although she was the legal wife and her status was unshakable, fights between women were often more intense in secret.

Surviving in a crack like this, it was far more than easy for Shangguan Bai.

"Do you need my help?" Due to the lack of understanding of the situation, Chen Mu Mu decided not to speak carelessly and instead asked such a question.

"No need. Since you have this kind of intention, you are helping me." Shangguan Bai smiled, but his smile was a little sad. "With your help, I can definitely make it through."

Young man, you have to be honest with your words. If you don't know how to lie, then don't force yourself.

However, seeing through it could not be revealed.

Chen Mu Mu nodded, "Then let me give you some encouragement, you'll definitely be able to cross this threshold."

He paused and took a deep breath, "Shangguan Bai, although I don't have much ability, if there's anything you need help with, you must not forget me."

"Definitely not." Shangguan Bai pursed his somewhat pale lips. "You've never been polite with me, so I naturally won't be polite with you."

"Haha, this is the path of friends. Congratulations Shangguan Bai, you've had a sudden epiphany." Hearing his words, Chen Mu Mu Mu was overjoyed.

She was gratified that Shangguan Bai was able to realize that when friends first got along with each other, it was natural and open to the heart.

When Shangguan Bai saw her smile, he was slightly startled. He was quiet for a bit and wanted to say something, but he couldn't.

The style of wanting to speak but hesitating was different from the old Shangguan Bai.

The Shangguan Bai of the past had been calm and confident, and had the bearing of a king controlling the general situation.

Chen Mu Mu didn't urge him, instead, he waited silently.

Although he was a friend, he had only established himself as a business associate. He rarely came into contact with her in his private life, so if he wanted to talk to her, he would naturally do so. Even if he didn't want to talk to her, it wouldn't be good for her to get involved in other people's affairs.

After a while, Shangguan Bai was finally done with his thoughts. He asked lightly: "Have you guys prepared your luggage yet?"

"There's been a lot of time in the day. I've already prepared everything, and now I just need to bid you farewell." Chen Mu Mu said, looking at Shangguan Bai, his eyes filled with worry. "Shangguan Bai, you take care after we leave."

"I will." Shangguan Bai nodded, but hesitated again.

"Shangguan Bai?" Chen Mu Mu didn't understand what was going on today. There was something he wanted to say, but he didn't dare to say it.

"Rong Ba, I'm hungry. Go to the kitchen and bring me two dishes." Shangguan Bai said.

Rong Ba responded and quickly left the hall.

Seeing him send Rong Ba away, Chen Mu's eyes moved.

This Shangguan Bai seemed to have something important to tell her.

Rong Ba had been by Shangguan Bai's side since he was young, and could be considered to be his trusted aide. But now, he couldn't even trust his own trusted aide.

"Chen Mu Mu Mu, since you're going to the capital, I would like to ask for your help." After they left, Shangguan Bai finally spoke with some hesitation.

"Go ahead." Chen Mu Mu Mu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "With such a friendship between us, there's no need to hesitate to help me. Can it be that you don't trust me?" If you hesitate like this, I will think too much. "

Of course, these were only words spoken on the battlefield. The relationship between Shangguan Bai and Chen Mu Mu Mu was something that both of them were well aware of.

For now, they weren't exactly good friends.

But that also depended on how Shangguan Bai thought. If he thought she could hold on, then she really could rely on him.

He didn't believe her, so she naturally wouldn't waste her efforts.

"I want to ask you to help me deliver something. This thing, no one is to know about it, including Lu Jinfeng and your mother." Shangguan Bai looked at Chen Mu Mu Mu and said, "This thing is very important, it can be considered a priceless treasure. You must not reveal it to anyone, otherwise it will lead to disaster."

"Such a powerful treasure." Chen Mu Mu's eyebrows twitched. "It's still priceless. Aren't you afraid that I'll flee after taking it?"

It was never a priceless treasure, but it was always a disaster.

As it was priceless, if someone else couldn't buy it, they would do anything they wanted.

A man's wealth was his own fault, she was panicking over it.

"Since I dared to give it to you, I will naturally trust you." Shangguan Bai's face was grave, "But Chen Mu Mu, this thing might indeed bring you trouble, but I can't find anyone else. During this time, it can't stay in the Shangguan family."

Chen Mu Mu pondered for a moment before nodding his head, "Give it to me."

Since this thing was so important, she could help as long as she could. Judging from Shangguan Bai's appearance, if she didn't accept it, then she probably wouldn't see him again in the future.

He was so terrified. Could it be that the source of the disaster was the same as them, a fatal one?

Who had the Shangguan family offended?

"Thank you very much." Shangguan Bai said solemnly, handing her a bag, "You must remember, this thing cannot be seen by anyone other than you."

Chen Mu Mu opened it to take a look. It was an egg-sized, lifelike white jade tiger. However, its four legs were red in color.

She was stunned for a moment as an indescribable sense of foreboding rose up in her heart. She endured the chilliness and looked up at Shangguan Bai. "Shangguan Bai, you're telling me that this is the legendary Tiger Tally?"

"Do you know him?" Shangguan Bai started, his eyes filled with shock.

"I don't know. I just heard that the Tiger Tally was a tiger and saw that the color of this tiger's feet was different from the others. So, I guessed who would have thought that I would be able to get it right." It was true that she had grown up in the countryside, but that did not mean that she had to be short-sighted and that she was an uneducated woman.

"That's the Tiger Tally." Shangguan Bai nodded, his expression a little complicated, "Chen Mu Mu Mu, since you understand that it is a Tiger Tally, you should know its effects right?"

"Dispatching troops?" Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu asked.

In her country, five thousand years of cultural history, the Tiger Tally was used like this.

"That's right, we need to mobilize our troops." Shangguan Bai's answer was straightforward.

Chen Mu Mu Mu's expression instantly turned ugly. "If I had this Tiger Tally, I reckon a bunch of people with ill intentions would come here to kill me?"

Throw! Tiger Tally! It's not a cat or dog, it's a tiger talisman!

A Tiger Tally that could be deployed!

What was a woman like her doing with this? Waiting for someone to chop it off?

Damn it, this was purposely tricking her to death!

Chen Mu Mu Mu's entire being was in a bad state.

"If this news is not leaked out, there shouldn't be any trouble. I will set up a trap and let the thieves steal it. No one will know that you took it." Shangguan Bai saw her expression and sighed slightly. "If you're afraid, then I'll look for someone else."

If he could find someone else, would he be so desperate to give her the Tiger Tally?

Chen Mu Mu Mu's expression didn't look too good, but he still stuffed the Tiger Tally into his pocket and lightly said, "No need, I'll take it."

Even if he had to kneel, he still had to fulfill the promise he made. Who told her to agree so early and then he would be the one to screw over himself.

This was the Tiger Tally.

They would be in for a fatal disaster, and someone would die!

"You really want it?" She agreed, but Shangguan Bai was a little uncertain, saying hesitantly: "Take it, you might be in a lot of trouble."

"Nonsense." Of course she knew that this was not just a big problem, but a huge one. Who knew if she would die in a few days, the two of them would never see each other again, separated by heaven and earth.

But who told her to promise him that she wouldn't be ruthless to her friends.

Not to mention that Shangguan Bai had helped her quite a bit.

"Chen Mu Mu, thank you very much." Shangguan Bai looked at her seriously, "I, Shangguan Bai, will definitely repay this huge kindness in the future."

"Don't be so serious, I'm afraid." Chen Mu rubbed his forehead and sighed. "Less idle chatter. Who do you want me to give this thing to?"

"Capital, General Wei Yuan is here." Shangguan Bai said.

"Feng Zizai?" Chen Mu Mu was silent for a moment. Then, he suddenly recalled the memory of the spicy young girl in red from his memory. "Feng Ling cherishes her father?"

"That's him." Shangguan Bai said, "This Tiger Tally is not an ordinary thing, it is related to the rise and fall of a country. Only by giving it to the General Feng can the country be at peace, and our life will be better."

Oh, don't frighten her, tell her about the rise and fall of a country.

She could not bear such a heavy responsibility!

Chen Mu Mu glared at Shangguan Bai and said, "I will give the things to General Feng, but if you continue to speak so arrogantly, I will not take the responsibility."

When Shangguan Bai heard this, he smiled and warned: "These days, no one is allowed to trust anyone. The thing must be handed over to the General Feng himself, no one else can do it, even the Young Miss Feng and the General's Wife."
