"Where is your Master now?"

Lin Yue thought that she had given in and hurriedly said, "There's no news for the time being, but our Master said if we get separated, we should head over to the next city to wait for news."

Bai Wutong asked, "Beiyun City?"

"Right."

Bai Wutong asked bluntly, "Why didn't the emperor just confiscate your houses?"

Even if he couldn't find all the silver, the amount from the fixed assets should be enough.

Seeing that if he did not answer this question, Bai Wutong did not intend to leave with them, Lin Yue said hesitantly, "Before the war, our Master secretly sold all the shops under his name."

Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows in surprise. What a character! He would rather clear the warehouse and sell at a low price than leave the emperor with a piece.

Then, she thought of something and probed, "Don't tell me your Master planned to join the Ling Kingdom from the beginning?"

Lin Yue paused and stammered, "How can I predict what Master is thinking?"

Bai Wutong looked at him and had already figured out most of the thoughts of this richest man in the country.

He had probably long expected that the Yan Kingdom would not be able to make a comeback. That was why he was so decisive and did not hesitate to abandon all his businesses and escape to Ling Kingdom with his son.

'How astute.'

Unfortunately, the emperor's men had found out.

Bai Wutong looked at Little Stinky in her arms and fell into deep thought.

As long as Sheng Huaixuan was not caught, the emperor would keep sending people to capture him.

Lin Yue also knew that they were a source of trouble, so he hurriedly said, "Miss and Sir are also going to the Beiyun City, right? As long as we reach Beiyun City, I promise not to trouble you again!"

Stinky was unaware of the adults' world. He played with the palm of Bai Wutong and tickled her palm with his small hand, as if it was tickling her heart.

If the emperor brought him back, who knew what would happen to the child?

Bai Wutong sighed. "How long until we reach Beiyun City?"

Lin Yue's eyes were filled with joy, and his pale face was glowing. "We're already near the boundary of the Beiyun City. We should be able to arrive in two days on horseback."

Two days. She could avoid using the RV space lest he notice something amiss.

Bai Wutong nodded. "Then let's go along the same way then!"

Lin Yue couldn't care less about his wound. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Miss and Sir are the greatest benefactors of our Master and Young Master! As long as Miss and Sir say the word, I will definitely go through hell and seas for you!"

Bai Wutong stared at him for a few moments, her eyes darkening. "It's good enough not to cause trouble for us."

Lin Yue's back stiffened and he did not dare to say anything.

He didn't know if they would cause trouble for Bai Wutong later on, but they probably would.

Therefore, playing dead was the best choice at this moment.

How could Bai Wutong not see through his thoughts? With a low laugh, she pushed the bowl in front of him again. "Eat your food first. We'll be on our way at dawn." She placed the medicine in front of him. "You can apply the medicine yourself, right?"
