After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

  Chapter 383 Queen Gaochang

  Yexiu stood for a long time in the bustling and empty street corner, his expression was the same as usual, only the hand that was holding the hilt of the sword was tightened.

   After an unknown amount of time, he glanced at the direction of the inn, said "go back", and turned around without looking back.

   The entourage caught up with some puzzlement: "My lord, didn't you go to the inn to save that woman?"

  Princess Xiyue's identity is not a secret in the upper circles of Gaochang. After all, the incident was so big that year, and it is said that all the people who participated in it died.

   "The other party may have an ambush, and they may just wait for us to pass."

  The personal guard was startled, then breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Big Xia people are really cunning."

   Then he asked worriedly: "Where is the master?"

  Half of the man's face was hidden in the mask, and he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly: "I will write a letter to report the situation here to the master, and apologize to the master."

  Thinking of some secret rumors about Queen Gaochang's tricks, the guard shuddered.

  …

  Yun Shu carried the bought embroidery thread and walked towards the inn. When she passed the corner, she felt a strange look looking at her. She frowned, but when she turned around, she saw nothing.

  She didn't take it seriously. After all, because of her appearance, it was always inevitable for her to be stopped by others when she went out.

  In the backyard of the inn, in the courtyard where Shen Mingjiao and the two lived, the guard in charge of the watch came back to report:

   "Young Master, I'm gone."

  Feng Lisheng sat at the stone table and flipped through the official documents. He was surprised for a moment when he heard the words, and soon fell silent again.

  Tie Zhu felt a little regretful: "Then our work is in vain!"

  They have been sending people to keep an eye on Princess Xiyue's accomplice. Until this morning, the guards captured all the hidden piles that Mrs. Feng had confessed to, and then let the princess take most of the guards there.

  His Royal Highness speculated that the other party would take this opportunity to rescue Princess Xiyue. The manpower was arranged early.

   "Why don't the subordinates directly lead people to follow..."

  Feng Lisheng raised his hand: "No, it's still the same as before, just send someone to follow quietly."

  Although Tie Zhu was puzzled, he just responded respectfully.

  Feng Lisheng bowed his head and continued to read the file. These are the records of bandits in Xianyang County over the years. He focused on about seven years ago, and his eyes were set on the last file.

  He ordered Tie Zhu on the side: "Send two more people to Ganzhou, and after finding out what happened to Xia Yuan, bring them back directly."

  After two days of investigation, and from the fragments of words inquired by the people in Xianyang, we can know.

  The land of Qin seems to have been haunted by bandits all the time. I heard from local old people that there were bandits and road tyrants in Qishan area many years ago. But they were all just small troubles. Usually, they only robbed some wealthy businessmen and gentry who passed by, and they only took some money to buy the road, and they never hurt people's lives.

   Over time, this has become a hidden rule, and every passing caravan bodyguard agency will take the initiative to hand over the road money. In contrast, these bandits will also ensure the safety of this section of the road.

  Because no one was killed, the government turned a blind eye. After all, the bandits in this world cannot be suppressed.

   It has been living in peace for many years, and the people of Qin gradually got used to the fact that there are bandits in the depths of Qishan Mountain. Because these people never cut off the common people, the common people were not too afraid.

Until about six or seven years ago, the former head of the bandits passed away, and the new head of the bandits was a real villain. He not only harvested money from passing caravans, but also slaughtered them because he fell in love with the dancers in the caravan. The whole caravan. A loyal servant fled to the government office in the city to report the case.

   Now that there is a fatal accident, the government must no longer turn a blind eye to it.

  The Xianyang prefect who was in power at that time found out what happened, and directly joined forces with the garrison in Qin to gather troops and prepare to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits.

  At that time, Xia Yuan, the commander-in-chief of the Qin Dynasty, was in charge of leading the troops to suppress the bandits. And according to what is written on the file. Because these bandits were stubborn, they had a fierce conflict with the officers and soldiers, and they were all killed. Most of the officers and soldiers brought there were also killed or injured.

  Afterwards, Xia Yuan submitted an apology to the imperial court. Jing and Emperor felt that he was almost defeated by the bandits in a mere region. They suspected that he was slack in training and directly demoted him to Ganzhou as a general.

  According to the memories of the local people, the government led troops up the mountain that day, and indeed they heard shouts of killing. On the second day, only Xia Yuan brought a few remnants down the mountain.

  The bandits and the officers and soldiers almost died together, and all the corpses were completely burned by the unintentional fire.

  In the next year or two, people went up the mountain one after another, claiming to be the family members or comrades of the dead officers and soldiers.

   And those people never came out after entering the mountain, so some people rumored that all the dead bandits had turned into ghosts. It was a time of panic.

  The governor of Xianyang was unable to do so, so he invited eminent monks to do a supersedation, which calmed the panic of the people. Since then, no one has dared to enter the mountain again.

  Finding out this at the time, Feng Lisheng angrily smashed the teacup in hand. You don't need to think about it, you know, those bandits are all alive and well, but the only ones who really died are the officers and soldiers who went up the mountain to suppress the bandits.

  A total of 3,000 soldiers, these people went up the mountain with the sincerity of making contributions to eliminate violence and peace, but what awaited them was a dead end that had already been set.

   In the following six or seven years, there were still bandits in Qin land from time to time, but because of the erratic whereabouts of these people, the government never caught anyone.

  Feng Lisheng sneered, at that time several county guards in Qin land had become the prince's people, so naturally it was impossible to really arrest them.

  …

  After Yexiu went back, he wrote down everything that happened in Qindi in a letter and sent it to Gaochang.

   At the same moment, the two hidden stumps who escaped before desperately sent the letter. A goshawk flew across the vast desert, and finally came to a small oasis country with pleasant scenery. Stopped at one of the most beautiful and exquisite palaces in this country.
