Not long after, the carriage stopped at a refugee settlement in the suburbs, and Mu Baihao opened the curtain.
"Master, get off the car!"
Xia Jin stepped out of the carriage and saw a shack made of branches and thatch. Seeing them coming, everyone inside came out and stood in front of the shack looking at Xia Jin.
"Are you curious why I brought you to a place like this?" Mu Baihao's expression was cold, and he seemed to have changed into a different person in an instant.
"I'm waiting for your explanation!" Xia Jin looked at him.
Li Qiang told her that the man in black who followed her in Lincheng was Mu Baihao, but Xia Jin did not feel Mu Baihao's malicious intent.
Therefore, during this period of time, she has been waiting for Mu Baihao to take the initiative to tell her.
"You are very different from what I know!" Mu Baihao looked at Xia Jin with complicated eyes.
"Everyone changes, not to mention that I have experienced a lot, so growth is inevitable!" Xia Jin said.
Looking at Xia Jin's open eyes, Mu Baihao pursed his lips tightly and tightened his chin. His twinkling eyes must have made up his mind!
He walked a few steps quickly and stopped when he was about two meters away from Xia Jin. He turned around, lifted up his clothes and knelt down on one knee.
"Kowtow to Your Highness the Princess!"
Others under the thatched hut also knelt down.
Xia Jin was not surprised. In fact, she had known for a long time that Mu Baihao was a native of Chixi who had lost his country.
After rescuing Lu Yi, Xia Jin asked Qin Hao'ou to investigate the two Jin businessmen. He learned from the two Jin businessmen that among the people who negotiated the deal with Qu Linjie that day, Mu Baihao was
Among them!
Xia Jin didn't understand why Mu Baihao wanted to join forces with Qu Rongjie, and what was his purpose?
So, she asked Motuo to send people to investigate and found out Mu Baihao's true identity.
Mu Baihao was not a cook, but a descendant of the general of the Chixi Kingdom. He was lucky enough to survive the war that subjugated the country, and thus fulfilled his father's last wish.
"I am no longer a princess, you all should get up quickly!" Xia Jin said.
Mu Baihao knelt stubbornly, "Princess, don't you care whether your people live or die?"
"Bai Hao, Chixi Kingdom is gone, and I am no longer a princess. Now I just want to open the Food Hall properly, and then free up time to open Zhuifeng Express."
Xia Jin walked to Mu Baihao and sighed softly.
"To put it bluntly, when I was sent to Chixi Country as a hostage, it was equivalent to being abandoned. Now I am asked to follow you to restore the country. I really don't have the heart!"
Xia Jin doesn't like fighting and hates war. Besides, she is not from this world, so she has no reason to blame this world's hatred on herself.
The reason why Qu Rongjie was killed was because she used her original body, so she should vent her anger on her behalf.
But now, she had no reason to help Qu Rongjie restore his country, and she couldn't convince herself.
Seeing Xia Jin express his attitude, Mu Baihao sneered, "It must be because of Lin Ziyi!"
Xia Jin stopped and turned to look at him, "If you want to think so, then so be it!"
Seeing Xia Jin leaving, Mu Baihao clenched his fists and said unwillingly: "You are the only remaining royal family of the Chixi Kingdom, everyone else is dead!"
Xia Jin paused for a moment, and for a moment, her heart throbbed, but she still endured the pain and got on the horse and left.
"Brother Mu, the princess will not agree to leave with us." The man beside Mu Baihao said.
Mu Baihao frowned and said coldly: "It's too early to draw a conclusion now!"
He has been observing Xia Jin since entering the Food God Hall.
At first he thought she was just opening a restaurant to make a living, but then he saw her miraculous fire-bending skills by chance, her ability to solve crises time after time, and her long-term plans and strategies after entering the business world, which gave him hope!
If she can be persuaded to return to Chixi Country, restoration of the country will be just around the corner!
