"Where are you taking me?" Mei Xueer looked at the man in front of her calmly.

Beside her, A'suo looked calm and silent, while Nanxing looked alert.

Li Mo smiled faintly and replied slowly, "I had no choice but to do this. Even if there hadn't been the accident at the city gate just now, I would have found a way to steal you away after leaving Changguo."

Mei Xueer pondered for a moment and smiled: "You said that you would respect my choice and never force me to do anything I don't want to do."

Li Mo smiled even more brightly: "If you didn't want to go with me, why didn't you resist just now?"

Mei Xueer answered honestly: "Because I know that if I go back to Zhen Country, I will die."

Li Mo nodded: "Yes, your identity can no longer be concealed now. Perhaps Cui Qimo already knows that you are the daughter of Princess Anping. Do you think he will keep you, a remnant of the Nanyue royal family? Changguo is an even more dangerous place. Yan Ruobing wants to tear you into pieces. In addition, there is Helian Lanfeng, who is a pervert and a lunatic. Cui Hongjing has to go back now, but you can't go with him because several forces want you dead. I can only hide you. After these dangers are eliminated, if you still want to return to him, I will not stop you."

When he said the last sentence, his expression was unusually gloomy.

Mei Xueer said sadly, "In fact, I have been thinking a lot these days. I feel that the world is so big, but there is no place for a woman like me."

"Miss, Master Li is right. We don't have to be so stubborn. It's better to hide for a while." Nan Xing interrupted, "But where should we go now?"

"Dongbin!" Li Mo said quietly, "Xi Ling is currently allied with the Zhenguo. Only Dongbin is relatively safe..."

The east coast is close to the sea and has developed commerce.

In this era when agriculture is emphasized and commerce is suppressed, Dongbin's emphasis on business stems from the open and inclusive ideas of those in power.

Walking on the street, you can even see blond and blue-eyed foreigners.

"Through maritime trade, the people of Dongbin have even expanded their business to the west, thousands of kilometers away. This is unimaginable in other countries." Li Mo lowered the curtains, "We will be there soon."

In front of it is a big mansion with two words "大大" written on it: Duan Mansion.

The carriage drove straight in through the side door.

"The young master is here! The young master is here!" Before the car stopped, Mei Xueer heard footsteps coming from outside.

The car stopped, Li Mo jumped out, and then helped her out.

There were more than ten people standing in front of him, men, women, young and old, and everyone bowed their heads respectfully: "Welcome, young master!"

Li Mo nodded slightly, "This is Miss Mei, everyone please serve her well. If anyone is disrespectful to Miss Mei, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"I understand!" Everyone turned to Mei Xueer and bowed: "Greetings, Miss Mei."

"Come on, I'll take you to see Aunt Meng." Li Mo said as he smiled and pulled Mei Xueer's hand.

Mei Xueer felt a slightly cold touch on her hand, and she retracted her hand reflexively, her face slightly red.

This scene happened to be seen by a middle-aged woman who was running over.

"Aunt Meng!" Li Mo smiled when he saw the woman. He walked over quickly with a big laugh and hugged Aunt Meng tightly: "Aunt Meng, I'm back. Look, I'm fine. I haven't lost any limbs."

Aunt Meng gently pushed him away with some anger, but her eyes were full of joy and relief.

Li Mo pulled Mei Xueer over: "Xueer, this is Aunt Meng. She is my closest relative here!"

Mei Xueer quickly bowed: "Xueer greets Aunt Meng!"

Aunt Zhen took Mei Xueer's hand and looked her up and down carefully, with joy in her eyes even greater.

She looked at Li Mo and gave him a questioning look: Is this your wife?

"Aunt Meng, from now on, you should treat Xue'er as your daughter-in-law!"

Before Mei Xueer could refute, Aunt Meng began to nod continuously, with tears of excitement flowing from her eyes.

"Aunt Meng can't speak, but she can hear what we are saying. For so many years, she has always treated me like her own child. Her greatest wish in life is to see me get married."

Upon hearing this, Mei Xueer swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

"Uncle Li——" a childish voice came.

Li Mo was startled and looked at the boy not far away, "Xiao Sheng? You're here so soon too?"

Xiao Sheng nodded: "It's been quite a while since we've arrived, along with that weird uncle who always sleeps. We've been waiting for you."

Mei Xueer raised her eyes and glanced at Li Mo: It turns out that he had planned it long ago.

Li Mo tilted his head and whispered to Mei Xueer, "This child is also a real Chinese. His parents are gone, so I took him in."

"Aunt Meng, how was my father when you left Wangyou Valley?" A'suo, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked.

Aunt Meng nodded, touched A'suo's head, and made some gestures: Uncle De is fine, he just misses you. If the valley didn't need him to be in charge, he would be eager to come and see you.

"Are these all people from Forget-Sorrow Valley?" Mei Xueer asked. Her first impression of these people was very good.

Li Mo nodded: "This is the secret branch of the Tiegu Gang in Dongbin. It's ours now. It's safe, don't worry. Come on, I'll take you to see another person."

This mansion is very big. After turning around several times, the two came to a small and extremely remote courtyard.

As soon as she stepped into the yard, Mei Xueer smelled a strong smell of medicine, which was not pleasant.

When he entered the room, he saw an unconscious person lying on the bed. It was Du Zheng.

There was another person sitting next to him.

"Just call him Hua Lao Er, a loyal and righteous man of the Tiegu Gang." Li Mo said, "This is Miss Mei."

Hua Lao Er bowed to Mei Xueer and turned to look at Li Mo: "He has already used up the antidote. I can only seal his meridians to prevent the insect from moving around. But this is not a long-term solution."

"The weird uncle who always sleeps that Xiao Sheng just mentioned, is he Du Zheng?" Mei Xueer asked.

Li Mo nodded and said, "He may not be able to hold on for long. After all, his meridians are blocked, which is extremely harmful to his body. Even if he is cured of the poison, he will be a useless person."

Mei Xueer stepped forward to feel Du Zheng's pulse. "You are right. If Helian Lanfeng doesn't cooperate, I really have no way to save him. But, if..."

"If what?" Li Mo's eyes lit up.

"No, nothing. It's impossible now." Mei Xueer felt that if she could order a CT scanner from Taobao, she might be able to see exactly where the poisonous insect was, and then with surgery, she might be able to help him remove the poisonous insect. However, Goudan was no longer there, and even if the mall could still be used, it might not have equipment like a CT scanner for sale.

Li Mo didn't ask any more questions. He believed everything Mei Xueer said.

After settling Mei Xueer down, Li Mo left first, saying that he had some things to deal with in the valley.

Mei Xueer felt a little sleepy and slept for a while until she was woken up by Nanxing at dinner time.

She looked at the girl who brought the food in with surprise, "Azi? Why are you here?"

Ah Zi smiled and said, "I received a letter from the young master a few days ago, so I closed the Pig Intestine Restaurant and rushed to Dongbin."

Mei Xueer's nose felt sore: Not only had he made arrangements long ago, he even thought of the pig intestines.

"Qiu Shang, the owner of Pig Intestines, is Li Mo?" Mei Xueer felt that she was really stupid, "I always thought..."

Ah Zi smiled sweetly, "The young master didn't allow me to tell Miss Mei. He said that Miss Mei would stay in Dongbin for a while longer this time, and he was afraid that the food here would not suit your taste, so he asked me to bring the cook over to serve you."

Mei Xueer's eyes turned red, "Why is he called Qiu Shang?"

Ah Zi stopped smiling and said, "I dare not say more. If Miss Mei wants to know, you might as well ask the young master yourself."

"Isn't he the master of Wangyou Valley? Why do you all call him Young Master?" Mei Xueer realized belatedly, as if Li Mo had never told her about his past.

"The young master is the young master of Wuchen Palace." Ah Zi only said this and refused to say anything else. Instead, she picked up the chopsticks on the table and said, "Miss Mei, try this. This is the pig intestine wrapped in quail eggs that our chef has just made..."

Ah Zi stepped back, and Mei Xueer chewed the pig intestines, finding them a bit salty.

Because the tears dripped on the fat intestines.
