The eldest princess pampered the beautiful, strong and miserable proton queen

Chapter 382 Arriving at Dali City

"We will camp at the foot of the mountain today and continue our journey tomorrow." Ji Ruxuan wrapped the long knife, hung it back on his waist, bent down to pick her up, and walked towards the carriage, "It is windy outside and the smell of blood here is too strong. I will go first I’ll send you down the mountain for resettlement.”

Jiang Fuguang leaned on his chest and experienced a fight. There was no blood on him, which was very reassuring.

A tent had been set up at the foot of the mountain. Jiang Fuguang briefly freshened up and ate something. Waiting until evening, Lieutenant Wu finally sent someone down to report the situation in the mountain.

Jiang Fuguang read the interrogation confession.

The poor mountains and rivers breed unruly people. The southwest area is not under the rule of the Southern Dynasty. The barbarians are entrenched. They are like the three imperial edicts, relying on the rule of the Southern Dynasty. They are also like these mountain bandits who occupy the mountains and become kings. They are lawless. The majesty of the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty will not be ignored by the barbarians. In eyes.

This is also the reason why banditry is rampant in the southwest.

Bloodwind Village is the king of the mountains nearby, with a population of 700. In addition to the more than 430 people who came down the mountain to rob the road, there are more than 0 people staying in the village. The bandits in the village are cruel and murderous, raping, raping, and plundering. Do no evil.

According to the gangster's confession, about five days ago, a group of mysterious people brought a box of gold and silver treasures and bribed the Blood Wind Village to kill the eldest princess.

The big boss was originally a little apprehensive, but the other party gave him too much. He also told the big boss that the Nanyue Kingdom had sent troops to the Southern Dynasty, and the Qi family's army was divided into the southwest. It was inevitable that the troops would be insufficient to resist, and the Qi family would soon be finished.

In addition, Yun Zhongguo was ambitious and wanted to unify the southwest, and the imperial court was too weak to care about the life and death of the eldest princess. As long as they finished their job, hid in the mountains of [-] Li, and changed their appearance, the Southern Dynasty would not be able to do anything to them. .

Bloodwind Village is the most powerful bandit village in the southwest. It has always been unfavorable and is inevitably arrogant, so it agreed to the deal and laid an ambush in the mountains two days in advance. It planned to use bows and arrows to attack in a sneak attack and take away a group of people first. Take advantage of the strength of the people and deal with the remaining guards.

Who would have known that the guards were wearing the finest armor and were not afraid of ordinary bows and arrows at all. What's more, they didn't expect that the guards of the Imperial City Division were all experienced in many battles. After a confrontation between the two sides, they were taken over by someone and they didn't even have the chance to escape. nothing.

It really makes people sad when they see it and sheds tears when they hear it.

The identity of the mysterious person who bribed the Bloodwind Village was not revealed. Lieutenant Wu interrogated all the survivors, but found no clues. It was a one-time deal. The Bloodwind Village received the money and just did the work. Who would care about the identity of the other party? .

As for the briber, he probably didn't know much about the southwest area. He only knew that the Blood Wind Village was the strongest bandit village on the way to the southwest. He had committed robberies and murders for many years and had never failed. He also overestimated the strength of the Blood Wind Village.

From this point of view, the person who bribed the bandits should be in Beijing.

Jiang Fuguang read the confession and found nothing of value. Although he had expected it, he was still a little disappointed.

"How is the situation in the mountains?"

The guard who came to report said: "Lieutenant Wu brought 100 people into the mountain to wipe out the remnants of Blood Wind Village. Lord Junxuan is responsible for guarding and protecting the safety of the eldest princess."

The Imperial City Secretary did not know Ji Ruxuan's identity as the "Shadow Secret Guard" and only regarded him as a personal guard beside the eldest princess. He had won the trust of the eldest princess and naturally respected him very much.

The guard continued: "Lieutenant Wu wants to cleanse Xuefeng Village with blood."

Since you dare to attack the eldest princess, there is no reason to let her go.

In the southwest area, bandits are rampant. Although the Imperial City Secretary is not afraid, but in order to avoid disturbing the eldest princess and delaying the trip, he cannot be vague in dealing with the Blood Wind Village. Knocking on the mountain to shock the tigers and killing the chickens to scare the monkeys are unavoidable methods, lest those who are long-sighted but not long-sighted Yes, I don’t know the power of the eldest princess.Hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches coming.

Jiang Fuguang nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Lieutenant Wu bloodbathed the Xuefeng Village, captured the women and children in the village, identified each other, and killed all the evildoers. He did not return to the camp until dawn.

In the open space of the camp, there is a pile of property accumulated by the Blood Wind Village over the years, as well as more than [-] women and innocent young children who were kidnapped and kidnapped by the Blood Wind Village.

Lieutenant Wu reported the situation in the stronghold. Jiang Fuguang looked over and saw that the more than [-] people kneeling down were all common people from the Southern Dynasty.

She frowned: "Check the collected property, look for any ledgers, and return the property that should belong to them as appropriate."

As soon as these words were spoken, mournful cries could be heard from the crowd, but because they were afraid of hitting the eldest princess, the cries seemed suppressed and desperate.

Jiang Fuguang couldn't bear it, so he ordered a few guards of the eldest princess's mansion: "Ask them where their household registration is. You go there and send them to Lingnan first. Ask the local government to help them return home, and give them money in the name of orphans." The local government where their household registration is located should let them know and let them resettle them safely."

The group of people immediately felt grateful and kowtowed.

After comforting the victim, Jiang Fuguang felt heavy in his heart. When his brother was stationed at the southwest border, he often led troops to suppress bandits, but the mountains were not under the control of the Southern Dynasties. The barbarian forces were deeply rooted and banditry was rampant in the past dynasties. It was impossible to eradicate banditry.

Today, the Blood Wind Village has been wiped out, and tomorrow there will be Blood Rain Village, Blood Blade Village, and Blood Moon Village popping up all the time. Only by recovering the twelve counties in Yunnan and having the imperial court send troops to suppress the bandits will the lives of the merchants traveling to and from the southwest be lost. , you will get certain protection.

Due to the complicated matters, Jiang Fuguang and his party were delayed for another day before continuing on their way.

At the same time, the news about the eldest princess ordering the bloodbath of Xuefeng Village was also spread in Shiwanli Mountain. The bandits lingering in Shiwanli Mountain were so frightened by the news that they clamped their tails tightly and did not even dare to risk their lives. The Shiwanli Mountain area ushered in a rare peace.

The rest of the journey went smoothly.

Three days later, Jiang Fuguang and his party arrived in Dali City.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened the southwest, and all dynasties in the southwest were ruled by the Central Plains. Since the Yu Dynasty destroyed the country, the north and the south have stood side by side. There are six "Zhao" Yi tribes around the Erhai Lake: Mengxi, Yuexi, Langqiong, Dengxi, Shilang and Mengshe. , since then the southwest has completely separated from Han rule.

Dali City faces the rippling Erhai Lake to the east and the perennially green Cangshan Mountain to the west, forming a landscape pattern of "a river surrounds Cangshan Mountain and Cangshan Mountain embraces the ancient city". The scenery is beautiful and majestic.

There is a tower above the city gate and an acropolis below. There are three streams in the north and south as natural barriers, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Approaching the city walls, the crowd suddenly became denser. Facing the spring scenery all year round, caravans from different regions, wearing different costumes and speaking accents from different regions, queued up outside the city gate, waiting to enter the city. .

The battle between Jiang Fuguang and his party was not small, and they attracted widespread attention as soon as they arrived at the city gate.

The southwest is remote and has limited communications. It is not uncommon for local wealthy families to maintain private soldiers and travel with them as guards. Therefore, no one queuing up to enter the city recognized that this was the car driven by the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty.
