C449 Music and Maps (1/2)

Bai Yu coldly snorted, but didn't do anything.

”All of you, bring the little gongzi and this old man out.” Manager Li instructed. Then, his gaze landed on Mu Ru Yue who was imprisoned here with them. Curious, he asked, ”Little gongzi, this place belongs to the same location as you. It should be with you. May I know what is this place?”

Bai Yu's feelings became complicated when he mentioned Mu Ru Yue. However, at this moment, he was certain that the current matters were related to the city lord's residence. It was better to not talk too much or else Murong Yue would not be able to escape.

After thinking about it, Bai Yu casually said, ”She's just a singing girl I met on the way here. She played quite well, so I decided to stay. What? ”Manager, are you interested?”

Manager Li shook his head. When he saw the hairpin on Murong Yue's head, a trace of greed flashed past his eyes. However, as if he had thought of something, he regretfully stopped looking and said to Mu Ru Yue, ”Raise your head.”

When Mu Ru Yue heard that, he slightly raised his head and a plain and ordinary face appeared before him. Manager Li was instantly extremely disappointed. Then he said, ”Shut these slaves up and wait for the orders from the higher-ups tomorrow. Kill them immediately.”

”Yes.” The three men said respectfully.

”Didn't I say that you guys are going to rebel after making such a big scene? These people are the residents of our Peony City after all. What if the higher-ups find out about this and send people to investigate? ”

Manager Li laughed mysteriously: ”Young master, with such a large army, if it wasn't for the orders from the higher-ups, how could it be? To tell you the truth, this is all a game. After today, these people were going to pay with their lives for the crown prince's death.

Tomorrow, if the crown prince himself comes to exchange for these people, we will kill them all. If he didn't come, these people would be the pioneers. The crown prince would definitely lose his power. The meaning behind those above, how can we know?

How could we dare to say something that is so powerful? It is only here that I dare to say these words when people are about to die. ”

”That's true. I never would have thought that the capital city would be so unstable.” Bai Yu said, deep in thought. With that, Bai Yu's gaze landed on Mu Ru Yue. He then turned to the manager and said, ”This woman will follow me for one day. Let me talk to her for a bit.” I wonder if you could prepare a zither for me? Let her play a song? ”

”This …” The supervisor hesitated.

”If anything happens, I'll just shoulder it.” Furthermore, Manager Li can't possibly not satisfy me with such a small matter, right? ” Bai Yu said unhappily. Manager Li looked at Bai Yu's confident expression and gave his instructions in the end.

Not long after, he retrieved the zither.

In this underground slave market, the thing that they needed the most was something like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. This was because they needed to ascertain the talent of these slaves.

Bai Yu received the zither and personally entered the cage. He walked in front of Mu Ru Yue and said, ”I am acquainted with you, so it is impossible for me to save you. This is the boss's intention after all. It could be counted as the last bit of gentleness I have for you. ”

Bai Yu gave the zither to Mu Ru Yue after speaking.

Mu Ru Yue looked at Bai Yu and saw his winking at her. When he touched the zither, he felt that there was something underneath the zither, so he blinked and his eyes became teary. He said in a hoarse voice, ”Young master, it seems like my death was worth it for me to be able to have a close friend like young master.

This humble one knows that Young Master is unable to control himself and that this is my life. This song will be the last thought I leave for you. ”

With these words, Mu Ru Yue gently caressed the zither and withdrew the item behind the zither into her sleeve. The zither strings in her hand vibrated slightly. He only heard the melodious sound of her voice, but it also contained a tinge of sadness and despair.

Mu Ru Yue chose this song on purpose.

Liang Zhu. This song was also her favorite song in the modern world. It was because she was sad, but also because … The man loved it. To that person, love should be imperfect. Only such a love was sufficient to remember.

When the zither music rang out, even Manager Li who was outside finally dispelled some of his doubts.

Although this woman was ugly, the zither music was indeed very good. No wonder Bai Yu couldn't bear to part with it. It was a pity that these people could not be left alive. They had heard the secret, and if they were allowed to live, it would be a disaster for him. Otherwise, with just this skill, he would have made a huge profit.
