"So what if it's peaceful and prosperous? As long as there are greedy people, the people will always be the victims. How could a high and mighty prince like you know the hardships of the people at the bottom? These are probably the children of beggars in the capital. Although it seems to be peaceful and prosperous now, there are many officials who plunder the people's wealth and treat human lives with contempt. The poor have no money to complain. Even if they complain, they will be rejected. The officials will protect each other. Even if these people die an unnatural death, no one will know. It's just that these innocent children are pitiful. You lost your parents at such a young age." Bei Xunying jumped off the horse and came to the children's side.
"Little brother, do you have any other relatives?”Although Bei Xunying was cold to others, she was unusually gentle to children. It was probably because she was a mother before. Although her poor child had not yet been born, she was unusually close to the child.
"No one. We are all orphans. These people are not our relatives. They are the people who begged with us.”A slightly older youth shook his head. He looked just a little younger than Shangguan Chu.
"Take these and live well.”Bei Xunying took out the silver she had on her.
"Big sister. Do you know martial arts?" The young man saw that Bei Xunying and the others were all armed.
"Why are you asking this?" Bei Xunying was curious.
"Can you teach me? I can do odd jobs for you as tuition. I really want to learn.”The young man sincerely looked at Kitasakura.
"Can you tell me why I want to learn martial arts?”Dongfang Yunyi asked.
"I want to take revenge and protect my sister. I want to live. I don't want to rely on others 'charity. I want to live on my own.”The young man's eyes were exceptionally bright. Bei Xunying looked behind him and sure enough, there was a little girl who was about four or five years old behind him.
"Alright, kid. Tell me your name and I'll help you become stronger.”Bei Xunying felt that she should do something for this stubborn youth.
"My name is Bai Feng, and my sister is Bai Yu.”The young man looked at Bei Xunying expectantly.
"Little Feng, are you willing to be my disciple and come with me?”Bei Xunying felt that if she wanted to establish herself in the martial world, she needed her own power. She could not rely solely on Yunding Mountain. Moreover, the youth was the future of the martial world. If she could properly nurture these homeless children, their future would be limitless. These children were often more resilient and willing to go all out than those pampered children. Moreover, it was also great that they did not have any worries.
"Thank you, Master." Bai Feng would never have thought that his glorious future would be single-handedly built by this woman in front of him. Everything he had would be given to him by her.
"Xiao Feng, you can bring your sister here and wait for Master. If there are other children who are willing to go with you, you can get along with them. Master has to go and do some work. Take this money to the city to buy some food and clothes.”Bei Xunying knew that if she brought them along, they would be in danger.
Junior Sister, I'll stay." Murong Han wanted to compensate Bei Xunying for saying that he was worthless.
"Third Senior Brother, what do you think?" Bei Xunying asked.
"That's good. Fourth Junior can stay here and take care of them. After all, they are still children. It's still a bit difficult for them to take care of themselves.”Dongfang Yunyi said.
"Then that's it. I'll have to trouble Fourth Senior Brother. Let's continue on our way.”Bei Xunying and the others mounted their horses and continued to move forward.
Baili Moyu stood on a distant hill and watched everything quietly. The corpses of another group of men in black were scattered around him. He wiped the blood off his hands with a handkerchief and continued to follow them.
"Wangye, tomorrow is your wedding with the Bei family's young miss. You should go back and show your face. There is still no news of Lord Ye, so we can't fall out with the prime minister yet.”Hongfeng appeared beside Baili Moyu.
"I understand. Send someone to protect these children. Also, find out why these children have fallen to the point of becoming beggars.”Baili Moyu said to Hong Feng.
"Then should we let Lei Tao continue to keep an eye on the girl?”Hong Feng asked.
"No need, she can do it. The person this king likes still has this bit of ability.”Baili Moyu urged his horse to take the shortcut to the capital. However, he did not expect that this decision would wipe out the change in North Seeker Ying's attitude towards him, causing her to truly hate him.
"Yes, this subordinate will do as you say." Hongfeng accepted the order and shook her head as she watched Baili Moyu leave. The three of them had followed their master since they were young. Although their master was smart, he was not as smart as others when it came to matters of the heart. She hoped that the young lady would not run into any trouble this time. Otherwise, her master would really regret it for the rest of his life. However, she had no right to interrupt her master's matters.
Bei Xunying and the others continued on their journey and stopped to rest when they were ten miles away from the capital.
"Senior Brother, don't you think it's a little too quiet this time?”Shangguan Chu asked Bai Qingcheng.
"There's someone worthy of us fighting to our hearts 'content.”Bai Qingcheng's perception was different from ordinary people.
"Looks like my reputation is really not small, don't you think so?”Kitasakura also wanted to stretch her muscles and bones.
"This tea is poisonous." By the time Shi Wushuang realized it, it was already too late. Other than Shi Wushuang and Bei Xunying, even Dongfang Yunyi and Shi Wushuang had been hit. They were temporarily powerless and had lost their martial arts.
"It seems that there will be a fierce battle this time. The two of us hold important positions. Not only do we have to protect ourselves, but we also have to protect our junior brother and senior brother. This battle will depend on you, junior sister.”Shi Wushuang smiled.
"You're clearly still a child. Why are you pretending to be mature?”Bei Xunying said unhappily.
"The few of you are too inexperienced, that's why you fell for it.”Bei Xunying looked at the three of them and sighed slightly. Shi Wushuang had come here before. It seemed that actual combat was necessary.
"Go to hell." The boss and the waiter revealed their true faces. According to Bei Xunying's senses, although these people were definitely not their match individually, they had the advantage in numbers. It was still a little difficult for the two of them to deal with these people, but for their lives, they had no choice but to bite the bullet.
While they were engaged in a bloody battle, Baili Moyu, surrounded by the crowd, married Bei Xueyan back to the Third Prince's manor. Although she was a Secondary Consort in name, she had been arranged according to the standards of a Primary Consort.
On Bei Xunying's side, the more she killed, the braver she became. Her entire body was covered in blood and wounds. It was already impossible to tell if it was her blood or the enemy's blood. After a few hours of fighting, the number of enemies had decreased. However, the human wave tactic still consumed a lot of Shi Wushuang's stamina. After all, he was still an underage child.
"You go and guard senior brother and the others. I can do it here myself.”Bei Xunying said to Shi Wushuang as she looked at the few enemies who were secretly walking behind them.
"Be careful." Shi Wushuang took out the flexible sword at his waist and handed it to Bei Xunying. He then took out the sword he often used to protect them.
"Little girl, you're too arrogant. We were paid to do this, so don't blame us. When we get down there, we'll burn more joss paper for you on account of how amazing you are and how much our brothers admire you.”Someone among the enemies said.
"There's no need to trouble yourself. You should keep the paper money for yourself. You'll be able to use it soon.”At this moment, Bei Xunying was like a demon from hell. Her internal energy was pushed to the limit, and her sword movements were so fast that only afterimages were left. With the help of Snow and Little White, corpses were soon strewn all over the ground. The arrogant fellow from before also died under her sword. There was only one enemy left. Bei Xunying did not kill him, but used a mind control technique to control his thoughts.
"Tell me, who sent you to kill me?”Bei Xunying asked.
"The Prime Minister's brother-in-law offered a high price to buy your life.”the controlled enemy said obediently.
"It seems that I'm not cruel enough to them. First Madam, Prime Minister, Bei Family, your doomsday has arrived. I, Bei Xunying, will bring you to hell.”Bei Xunying said fiercely.
"Junior Sister. What do you want to do this time?" Dongfang Yunyi asked after the effects of the medicine subsided. Ever since he knew Bei Xunying, she had always been cold and indifferent to everything. He had never seen her so terrifying.
"I'm going home to see Auntie. I hope she's not too happy.”Bei Xunying climbed onto Little White's back and ran towards the capital without caring about the others.
"Let's go quickly, or we'll be abandoned. It seems that the girl doesn't trust us very much.”Bai Qingcheng had no choice but to abandon her horse and use her lightness skill to chase after them. Little White and Snow's speed was not something that horses could catch up to. Moreover, after the battle just now, the horses had been slaughtered long ago. They could only rely on themselves.
When Bei Xunying rushed to the city, she saw that the entire capital was decorated with lanterns and streamers. It seemed like someone was getting married.
"Stop, where did you come from? The Third Prince is celebrating today, don't go in and ruin the scene.”The guards looked at Bei Xunying's bloodstained dress and frowned impatiently.
"Snow, open the way." Bei Xunying said gently to Snow.
" Roar!" Snow's huge body knocked down two guards and stepped on them one by one, clearing a path for Bei Xunying.
"Xiao Bai, let's go." Bei Xunying smiled. She had always thought that Baili Moyu had her own difficulties back then. She still believed that he had truly loved her back then. However, she finally saw it clearly now. It had always been her own wishful thinking. He had never loved her. The words that he had said before about liking her were just a passing remark. She was fighting a bloody battle, but he was happily getting married. How laughable!
"Miss, what's wrong?" Ye Xin, who had calculated Bei Xunying's journey and came to welcome her, saw that something was wrong with Bei Xunying and asked with concern.
