Su Wanning was pushed directly to the backyard, and she realized that they were probably afraid that they would be discovered by the soldiers and taken away and sent to the palace.

No wonder I didn’t notice those young ladies from aristocratic families when I was not shopping just now.

But it's daytime now. Do you dare to take someone away in the street?

But they still went out through the back door. After returning to the inn, Su Wanning asked Yue Shu to investigate carefully.

By the way, let's see how the people who helped her leave are doing.

How could she, a married woman, be taken away?

Thinking of this, Su Wanning opened the window of the room and looked outside.

I happened to see a patrol of soldiers, and next to them, someone happened to be walking by.

Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Su Wanning went downstairs immediately.

But he met the patrol officers on the spot.

The leader glanced at her and waved to the people behind him.

"take away."

Su Wanning quickly ran in the direction of the man she had just met.

"Bai Ye! Bai Ye, save me."

Bai Ye, who was in front, heard the voice and turned around. Seeing that it was Su Wanning, he took two quick steps and reached out to pull Su Wanning over.

When the officers and soldiers saw that they knew the two men, they turned around and continued patrolling.

Su Wanning took a breath and said, "No, those officers and soldiers really dared to arrest people in broad daylight."

Bai Ye glanced at the group of officers and soldiers, then looked at Su Wanning, "Why did you come to the capital?"

"I came here to have some fun."

"You really know how to choose a place to play." He looked at Su Wanning's waist as he spoke, "Where's the jade pendant I gave you?"

Su Wanning took it out from the space and said, "I have been keeping it well."

"Who told you to keep it safe?" Bai Ye said in a blaming tone, "Didn't I tell you to keep it on?"

As he spoke, he reached out and took the jade pendant and hung it around Su Wanning's waist.

I saw that Bai Ye also had a jade pendant on his waist, but it was a little different from hers.

There is a plum forest above her, and although there is also a plum forest above Bai Ye, there is a plum character carved in the middle.

Seeing Su Wanning staring at her jade pendant, she asked, "Why? You want this from me?"

As he said this, he was about to take it off.

Su Wanning quickly shook her head, "No, I'm fine with this."

Bai Ye's jade pendant was obviously more advanced than hers, and she was fine, so as long as she could walk normally, it would be fine.

"If I wear this, can I walk freely on the street?"

"Of course." Bai Ye said.

"Why are you in Beijing too?" Su Wanning asked.

"You probably don't want to know." Bai Ye replied with a smile.

"Then where do you live now?"

"You probably don't want to know." After saying that, he reached out and touched Su Wanning's head, "Go play with your two little maids."

He pointed a finger not far behind the two of them.

Su Wanning stood there, watching Bai Ye walk away.

After Bai Ye left, Yue Shu and the other person came to Su Wanning.

"Isn't that our former neighbor? Why is she in the capital?"

"Well, she came to Beijing for business." Su Wanning said.

Yue Shu nodded and reported today's events to Su Wanning.

"When I went back just now, the police must have seen those people helping us, and they all got whipped quite a lot."

Su Wanning frowned. They were indeed helping her. If it weren't for them, they would definitely pretend nothing happened and continue eating. Even if Yue Shu and the other two resisted and escaped at that time, they would still be noticed.

Later, she met Bai Ye and knew how to avoid being caught.

Thinking of this, he reached out and touched the jade pendant around his waist.

"Where are their homes located?"

"We've found them all. They're all in the west part of the city."

Several people walked towards the west of the city and bought a lot of things in the shops along the way.

Yue Shu first found a house close to them and walked over to knock on the door.

"Who?"

The door opened within seconds of the words falling.

"Who are you looking for?"

Su Wanning looked at the old woman in front of her, who should be the mother of one of the men.

After Su Wanning explained her purpose, the old woman let them in.

"That guy still has some conscience and knows how to help others. Otherwise, if you girls were taken away, who knows what kind of torture you would have suffered."

"We are truly sorry that your son was injured."

When the old woman saw that it was all food, she accepted it directly.

"It's okay. He's been tough since he was a kid. His injuries will heal in two days."

They talked for a while before leaving.

The man who had been lying on the bed heard some noise outside and thought that there were guests coming.

"Mom, who came just now?"

The old woman placed some snacks on the bedside table. "The girls you saved are here to thank you."

"I told you, good deeds will always be rewarded." The man laughed, reached out to take a piece of cake but accidentally pulled the wound, and let out a light sigh.

"I helped others, but I got hurt myself. At home..."

"There are only two of us left at home. If you are gone, how will I live?" The man spoke before the old woman finished speaking. The old woman rolled her eyes at her on the spot.

He walked over and slapped his hand, then reached out to open the bag of snacks. Unexpectedly, several banknotes fell out of it.

"This this..."

The man saw what was inside and said, "They must have put it in there in advance because they were afraid you wouldn't accept it."

"No, we can't accept it according to you." The old woman said as she was about to walk out the door.

The man called her back, "Mom, come back. I just told you that since they put it in there, they must be afraid that you won't accept it if they give it to you in person. And judging by their clothes, they must be well-off."

The old woman stopped and asked, "What about this silver?"

The man nodded and said, "Just take it. Besides, I need medicine for my injuries."

"I'll go to the mountains outside the city and pick some herbs for you to eat later. I don't care what kind of herbs you pick." He counted the silver notes in his hand and said, "It's exactly one hundred taels. These will be used as a betrothal gift for you in the future."

After saying that, he walked out of the house.

"Mom, don't forget to get me some medicine."

No one answered his words.

Su Wanning and others also arrived at the second house at this time. Before they knocked on the door, it was opened from the inside.

The woman was cursing something and frowned unhappily at Su Wanning and the others. "Who are you looking for?"

Yueshu walked forward, explained her purpose, and handed over the pastries in her hand.

The woman looked at the cake in her hand with a look of disgust, then threw it to the ground. "My husband is the pillar of the family. Because he saved you, he is now bedridden and has no source of income. What do you think we should do?"

Yue Shu picked up the cake on the ground and looked at Re in front of her. "Then how do you say we should solve this problem?"

"My husband gets two taels of silver a month. His injury means he won't be able to find work for at least six months. Plus, he needs medicine to recover from his injuries, which will cost at least twenty...thirty taels."
