To the west of the Great Shang Capital.

Wilderness and wilderness.

Dressed in white, Mu Bai walked alone, carrying a bundle and holding a sword, showing an extraordinary temperament.

Of course, there is no unified standard of appreciation for things like temperament, and benevolent people have different opinions.

Fairies that others think are otherworldly may be bandits and hooligans in the eyes of others.

For example, someone from Qin.

Of course, there are not many people with such a huge contrast like Qin. Most people will still pay more or less attention to their own image.

Who can equate such an elegant name as Plum Blossom Sword Immortal with that of a bandit? There is only one person in the world, even throughout the ages, named Qin.

In comparison, Mubai is much more ordinary.

Her appearance is not ugly, but there is a huge difference between her and a fairy-like figure like Qin Grace.

Their appearance cannot be compared, their strength cannot be compared, and their temperament is no longer so important.

Therefore, when Mu Bai walks in the wilderness, he is no different from a passerby.

If no one knew his identity, who would have thought that the passerby in front of him was the fourth prince of Dashang.

temperament?

Only when there is a status bonus is it called temperament. If not, then it is a fool.

Along the way, Mu Bai walked eastward alone, walking through barren mountains and ridges, and passing through bustling cities, but no one recognized his identity.

Even those high-ranking dignitaries or some of the palace servants who retired from old age and returned to their hometowns, when they saw Mu Bai on the street, the thought did not cross their minds for even a second that this bumpkin was the fourth prince.

Half a day later, after walking out of the wilderness, Mu Bai came to a city again, took out a few pennies from his body and bought two buns, ready to fill his stomach first.

People are like iron rice and steel. If they don't eat a meal, they will be hungry. After being tortured by Ye Xuanji, Mu Bai now cherishes the food he can eat.

"drive!"

At this moment, at the end of the street, a group of people ran past, and the leader was none other than Zhuang Shisan, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army of the Great Shang Capital City.

The dozen or so people led by Zhuang Shisan were all masters among the masters of the Forbidden Army. They went to Youzhou this time to find the whereabouts of His Highness the Fourth.

Next to the street, in front of a steamed bun stall, Mu Bai took two steamed buns and began to eat them. His eyes glanced at Zhuang Shisan and a dozen Forbidden Army masters, and he ignored them.

Commander Zhuang is so anxious, it must be something urgent, so let them get down to business first.

Anyway, he has hands and feet, so it won't take him a few days to walk back to the capital.

"Hurry up, if you miss the mission assigned by His Majesty, you will all be left with nothing to eat!"

On the street, fast horses galloped past. In front of the team, Zhuang Shisan shouted in a deep voice, reached out and patted the horse under him, speeding up the journey.

Behind them, a dozen Forbidden Army masters also did not dare to delay and sped up to follow.

In this way, Zhuang Shisan and others missed Mu Bai perfectly.

"Lady boss, two more buns."

After eating two steamed buns in a row, he felt that he was not very hungry, so he took out a few coins from his body and bought two more steamed buns.

Behind the stall, the delicate little woman opened the drawer, took out two meat buns and handed them over, saying, "This young man, judging from your accent, he is not a local, right?"

"no."

Mu Bai took the bun, shook his head, and replied, "I'm just passing by. I'll be out of the city in a moment."

"Young Master, please be careful. There has been some unrest outside the city recently, and bandits are rampant. It's best not to go out when it's dark," the delicate little woman advised.

"Dark?"

Mu Bai glanced at the scorching sun going west, nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I will leave the city tomorrow morning."

The delicate and kind little woman was relieved when she saw that the young man in front of her had listened to her advice.

Half an hour later.

Outside the city, Mu Bai walked out, the sun was setting in the sky, and night was about to fall.

Take advice?

That's impossible.

If Mu Bai had listened to the advice, he would have become the prince long ago.

In Li Ziye's words, Mubai is one of those people who can't grow straight without being repaired. However, people are not picky regardless of their family background or martial arts talent. If they want to repair him, they can't find anyone.

reason.

As night fell, Mu Bai was walking on the official road outside the city, leisurely and contented, just about to write the four characters "Come and rob me" on his face.

finally.

The bandits arrived as they wished.

Mu Bai was lucky. A dozen bandits originally wanted to rob the surrounding villages, but they happened to encounter Mu Bai who was walking alone at night.

Since it was a coincidence, it would not be in line with the position and professional ethics of a bandit to not rob it by the way.

As for Mu Bai, her hands were already extremely itchy.

During the days when he was under the supervision of Ye Xuanji and Xifeng, the guarding boss was too strong, and Mu Bai was injured, so he never took action.

Now that his opponent has changed and his injuries have healed, Mu Bai feels that he can do it again.

Soon, more than a dozen bandits were surrounded by Mu Bai. In less than ten breaths, all the bandits were knocked to the ground.

From the beginning to the end, the sword was not unsheathed. Mu Bai was still reluctant to use the Longyuan Sword to kill the bandits.

"Vulnerable."

After letting everyone go, Mu Bai looked at the bandits lying on the ground, said trash talk with an indifferent expression, and walked away immediately.

These bandits were still too weak. After I went back, I asked Brother Li to practice his skills. That guy was thick-skinned and could withstand beatings better than these people.

By the way, is that kid in the capital now?

Just when Mubai was rushing to the capital of Great Shang day and night.

In the capital, news that Mu Bai was not dead suddenly spread.

In an instant, the entire city of Great Shang was in a state of chaos.

The fourth prince is not dead, which is a shocking event.

The fourth prince is the legitimate son and has made great military exploits. If he can return safely, who else can compete with him for the position of prince.

The eldest prince?

This is an issue that is completely unnecessary to discuss. How can suppressing bandits be compared with the achievement of killing enemies on the battlefield?

What's more, Mu Yuan lost Baidi City, and this old debt has not yet been settled.

If the fourth prince had not returned, Mu Yuan might still have a chance to compete for the crown prince's position. However, now that the fourth prince is about to return, there may not be much suspense about the crown prince's position.

Even behind the eldest prince, there is a commoner king who is deeply favored by the emperor.

But, how could a commoner king change the general trend?

At the same time, northwest of the Great Shang Capital City.

Mu Yuan led the army all the way back, getting closer and closer to the capital of Dashang.

After successfully suppressing the bandits, Mu Yuan was in a great mood and wished he could immediately put on his wings and fly back to the capital city of Great Shang.

Until that piece of news reached my ears.

Mu Bai is not dead!

After hearing the news, Mu Yuan was stunned and couldn't believe his ears.

Fourth child, not dead?

The moon is like a hook, a big hook.

In the Rakshasa Army camp, Li Zi stood quietly in front of the tent at night, looking in the direction of the Great Shang Capital City, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved.

Mu Yuan, are you satisfied with this gift?

Don't worry.

The bigger gift is yet to come.
