Ji Shu felt extremely thirsty, so when he returned to the front yard, he asked the housekeeper to get some cold water to wash his face.
After drinking a large pot of water, he felt something strange about his body and the desire in his heart. As a person who has experienced this, how could he not understand what is going on with his body?
Thinking over what he had done early in the morning, the only unusual thing was the moment when Princess Qian patted him on the shoulder.
Thinking about the fragrance that I smelled at that time, it was most likely caused by Princess Qian.
"Sir, are you okay?" The butler came in with a basin in his hand and asked worriedly.
Ji Shu shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It's okay, you can go and invite Aunt Xi over now."
This is Princess Qian’s revenge or her warning to him!
I won’t tell you how the Yancheng County Magistrate fought with his aunt for three hundred rounds at home.
The team from Prince Qian's Mansion left Yancheng. Along the way, Prince Qian entered Wangjia and never came out again. Regardless of whether he was guilty or something else, Xia Jing just wanted him not to hold everyone back.
Mr. Zhang almost laughed when he saw the prince hiding in the carriage like a puppy in trouble.
Ha ha
Finally there is someone to be afraid of!
Along the way, he rarely saw refugees. Li Chengmu was happy, "Mother, it seems that Jingzhou has resettled many refugees. Nowadays, they are rarely seen on the road."
Xia Jing: "It rains in this area in early summer, so the disaster is definitely not as severe as in the north. The refugees who fled from the north are exactly what places like Changsha County and Yancheng are lacking. Do you think they can make good arrangements for it?"
The demographic dividend is not only valued by future generations, but also by the rulers of this era.
The further south you go, the more rugged and difficult the mountain road becomes.
The team slowly entered the hilly area.
Mr. Zhang found the captain of the guard and warned: "Our team has entered a hilly area. There are many mountains and forests in this area, and there may be many bandits as well. You must be vigilant and don't let the enemy take advantage of the loopholes."
The captain of the guard had not encountered any danger along the way after crossing the river, so he had relaxed his vigilance.
Now that I was reminded by Mr. Zhang, I felt solemn, "Thank you, sir, for reminding me. I will make arrangements to make everyone more vigilant."
Regardless of whether you take a break at noon or night, the camp guard chief will arrange for twice as many people to be on duty.
This change naturally attracted the attention of the master of the house, and the female relatives were very nervous. Even in the camp, they would restrain the children from running around.
When Xia Jing learned about the arrangements of the captain of the guard, she just raised her eyebrows and did not interfere with his arrangements.
Sometimes things in the world are unpredictable, and whatever you are prepared for will happen.
Late at night on the second day after leaving Yancheng, everyone in the camp was asleep.
Suddenly a sharp whistle pierced the sky, and everyone in the camp was awakened except for the dead pig.
"Princess, I will serve you to dress you."
Hongmei and Baimei woke up with a start. They had no time to hold the lamp, so they stumbled up to help Xia Jing find clothes.
"No, just take care of yourselves." Xia Jing is a psychic person, her vision at night is the same as during the day, she quickly took her clothes and put them on her body.
She got out of the tent, and the camp was already in chaos. The screams of women, the cries of children, and the turmoil of the mountains and forests in all directions showed that there were many bandits in the forest.
Hongmei's voice came from the tent, "Princess, don't be impulsive. There are guards and strong men against the enemy. Don't go outside. It's dangerous!"
Xia Jing said without changing her expression: "You guys hide in the tent and don't come out. Take care of yourselves."
As she spoke, her spiritual consciousness entered the space and quickly rummaged through the pile of goods for weapons that could be used by her.
There were a lot of bandits dispatched this time, and the bows and arrows could not kill a large area, so they were not suitable for use this time.
The space area has expanded a lot in recent times, and a lot of the goods collected at the beginning have also appeared.
Finally, I found a metal suitcase in the cargo pile, which contained a pistol, matching bullets and silencer.
Xia Jing quickly assembled it, and before Hongmei and Baimei could get dressed and come out, she flashed into the dark night.
She first came to Li Chengmu's tent and happened to bump into Li Chengmu who was rushing out.
Li Chengmu held her hand in surprise, "Mother, why are you here? I was just trying to find you. Let's go and meet my father."
Xia Jing withdrew her hand and said, "Why are you looking for him? Let's go, my mother will take you to kill the enemy!"
"ah?!"
Li Chengmu didn't expect her to answer like this. Although he held a sharp sword, his kung fu was mediocre and he was a little reluctant to kill the enemy.
"Young mother is following you, what are you afraid of?" Xia Jing didn't want Li Chengmu to become a greenhouse flower, so she dragged him out of the camp.
The scale of the bandit siege this time was quite large, and it was a bit difficult for the guard battalion and the strong men to cope with it on the outside.
The head guard looked solemn: "Zhuzi, go and gather all the masters together, so that they don't run around in fear!"
"Okay, brother, you have to be careful!" Zhuzi chopped down a bandit and retreated to the back. He gritted his teeth and turned around to leave.
When Xia Jing brought Li Chengmu over, she happened to see a bandit slashing at Ding Dazhuang with his machete. She raised her gun and killed him without hesitation.
Li Chengmu noticed Xia Jing's movements. He looked at the gun in her hand with admiration: "Concubine, what kind of hidden weapon is this? It's so powerful!"
Xia Jing glanced around the perimeter, raised her hand to deal with a few more, and then replied: "Pay attention to the surroundings. I want to know how powerful this hidden weapon is. I will explain it in detail later."
Ding Dazhuang originally thought that he was doomed this time, but unexpectedly, there was a twist and the enemy fell first inexplicably.
However, now was the time for battle, and he didn't have much time to study it carefully before he joined the battle again.
With the addition of Xia Jing, the pressure dropped drastically. Seeing that they were able to deal with it temporarily, Xia Jing took Li Chengmu to another place.
Li Chengmu felt that he was just here to make soy sauce, and there was no chance of killing the enemy by his side.
Now that the team has Xia Jing's raiding formation, the pressure on the guard battalion and strong men is drastically reduced, making it easier to fight against the enemy.
After a battle, the bandits discovered that the troops on their side fell to the ground for no apparent reason. Seeing the people around them fall to the ground one by one, the remaining bandits were frightened.
On both sides of the battle, one side was timid and one-sided because of its obvious momentum. King Qian's men became more and more courageous as they fought, killing the bandits and retreating steadily.
The captain of the guard also wanted to lead his men to pursue the victory, but was stopped by Mr. Zhang, "Don't chase the poor bandits! We have a lot of old, young, women, and children here, and we still need your protection. What do you think will be the consequences if they are trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
The captain of the guard gritted his teeth and was really unwilling to give in. "Sir, are you going to let them go like this?"
But he also knew that his husband was right. If it was a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, he really couldn't bear the responsibility!
Xia Jing came over and urged: "Stop worrying, clean the battlefield quickly and comfort the injured. You will have a chance to take revenge in the future."
This time they originally wanted to suppress the bandits all the way to Lingnan, but the situation in the world is changing rapidly. The old emperor doesn't know when he will die, and they really can't afford to delay now.
