Manbao and his companions had no intention of going shopping or even leaving the County Governmental Office.
For they believed that it was too dangerous outside by now—who knew whether the Prince of Yizhou was aware of their existence?
What if he was aware and had people watching them at this very moment?
What would they do if they went out and something unfortunate led to their deaths?
Both the faint-hearted Manbao and Bai Shan, who unanimously believed they could live a long life and wanted to do so, decided not to go anywhere today. They would simply stay at County Magistrate Yang's home to read books, admire the scenery, and chat.
Bai Erlang, who really wanted to go out, was successfully persuaded by them. The main reason was that he didn't have many friends in Luojiang County's city; with the other two unwilling to leave, it wouldn't be fun for him to go out alone.
