"Brother, there's no way we can hide like this. We're still carrying these three big burdens, so we might as well kill them."

Mazi knocked the mud on the soles of his shoes. It had been raining recently, and the road in the mountains and forests had become increasingly difficult. They would almost run out of food if they continued to hide.

The boss walked up to the three of them with a knife, feeling like they were just a few hot potatoes.

The imperial court came to search for them with great fanfare, which shows that their identities are definitely not simple.

If they were really killed, all the brothers in the village would probably have to be buried with them.

But handing the person over now is a dead end.

Rather than...

Shen Yuluo looked at the shining blade, suppressed the fear in his heart, and forced himself to calm down: "Do you know who the real identity of this person next to me is? He is His Highness Prince Huai of the Daqi royal family. If you don't believe me, you can check his inner clothes. Ornaments... If he really has bad intentions, you will all be punished by the nine tribes!"

She didn't know what the crime was for killing a prince, but it was considered serious.

At this time, she could only push King Huai out. She knew that the eldest princess had a very bad reputation among the people. If anyone found out, they would probably have her head moved.

"Then you still have a long... ow!"

As soon as King Huai finished speaking, Shen Yuluo stomped him hard. After he realized what he was doing, he shut up, his eyes filled with resentment like that of a frustrated little wife.

"In the past few days, I have seen that your identity is not simple. I didn't expect that you also arrested a prince! In this case, we have to destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces. Otherwise, when the people from the court come to find you, can you let us go? ?”

The boss sharpened his knife.

"I promise that as long as you release us, we will never pursue this matter again in the future!"

King Huai quickly raised his hand and swore.

"What's the use of you being the King of Heaven? I, Hu Mang, hate you the most in my life, those royal children who have stepped on the blood and sweat of the common people to get rich clothes and fine food! Apart from being born with a good fetus, what else do you have?"

The boss sneered and sharpened the knife more vigorously.

However, Shen Yuluo heard a glimmer of hope in his words: "Brother Hu, I think you are also an ambitious person. Since you look down on us, you shouldn't risk your life for people like us. . Why not, let His Highness Prince Huai sign a letter saying that if you let us go, the imperial army can accept all your brothers in Taolin Village, so that you can show your ambition..."

After getting along with each other for the past few days, Shen Yuluo saw that this bandit was indeed unusual.

Although he is a bit naive, he has his own understanding in many aspects, and he is not a heinous gangster.

"Nowadays, the imperial army is in a state of chaos. Even if you accept the recruitment, you may not be as comfortable as you are now. What ambitions are there? The emperor is just a young man who indulges his witch queen sister to do whatever he wants. How can he care about the life and death of the common people! The morale of the three armies is low. , how many cities have been given away by repeatedly ceding land and paying compensation... Is such a court worthy of our service? "

The boss squinted his eyes. He had heard this kind of nonsense to trick them into recruiting people. He didn't know how many times he had heard it.

Most of those soldiers were weak and neglected to practice. It was probably difficult to even hold a weapon.

The only one who still has some character left is Gao Jiajun.On the other hand, the iron-blooded troops brought out by Mr. Gao, their children and grandchildren are still somewhat proud.

It's a pity that Mr. Gao is disabled and old, and his only granddaughter was killed by the eldest princess. The Gao family army may be separated in a few years.

Nowadays, many people with lofty ideals in the world can't find a way to show their talents. He leads this group of brothers and often feels at a loss as to where to go.Shen Yuluo opened his mouth, wanting to refute but couldn't, because what he said did make sense.

Just when she and Prince Huai were dumb, Xuecheng held his neck and shouted: "That's not the case!"

He was dark-looking and did not have a strong sense of presence. He suddenly made a sound that startled the boss.

"Do you know what a group of us did when we passed by Boyang? We, the eldest princess, overthrew corrupt officials and collected the bribes from His Majesty. We wanted to send military pay to the soldiers on the northwest border, but we never wanted to be You are tied up!"

"As you said, Chao Gang is in chaos now and has indeed fallen into chaos. But if everyone thinks like you do, hiding in the mountains and becoming a hero in the forest, then this country will be truly over."

"I was also born into a poor family. I know that the world is not easy, so I want to change it even more. Even if I are killed by you today, my remaining brothers will continue to move forward with this loyalty..."

When Xue Cheng got excited, he easily broke free from the ropes binding his hands and feet, and even broke the only newly made table here with a slap.

Oops, the eldest princess asked him to hide his strength until the end, but he forgot about it.

"Is what you said true?"

The boss finally stopped what he was doing, dropped the half-sharpened knife, and stared at Xuecheng with his big eyes.

"Of course, he's going to die anyway, why are you lying to me!"

Xue Cheng retracted his legs from the stool angrily, thinking whether he should risk his life now and prepare to escape, but he could only take away one of the eldest princess and Prince Huai at most.

Before he could decide who to choose, the boss slapped him on the back: "Hahahaha, little brother, I didn't expect that you are so young, you actually solved the knot that I have been unable to figure out for many years! Yes! Lao Hu, my vision is too narrow, I am really ashamed..."

Before Xuecheng could react, he forced Xuecheng to follow him again.

"Brother Xue, what you just said really enlightened me, but there is something you are telling me. The eldest princess you are talking about, how could someone like her do such a thing! She forced the Gao family to death Everyone in the world knows about my only granddaughter!”

What Hu Mang longed for most was the Gao family army back then. Unfortunately, he was still young at that time and could not enlist in the army.

When he grew up, things changed.

"Brother Hu, I'm really not lying. This time, the eldest princess is also escorting the food and fodder, and she also brought her own private soldiers to escort her. She... I'm afraid there was some misunderstanding about what happened before. Xue thinks she is a good person."

After saying that, Xue Cheng glanced at Shen Yuluo.

But Hu Mang didn't understand what he meant, and his eyebrows rose: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. If she can do such a thing, I, Mr. Hu, will eat this table!"

Princess Chongning, she is the representative of the darkest and absurd side of the Daqi Dynasty.

Anyone who was dissatisfied with the court would curse at her, and even civilians spontaneously formed a killer organization to take her head.

Seeing him gnashing his teeth at her, Shen Yuluo shuddered and felt a chill on his neck. Fortunately, he didn't reveal his identity just now.

"What's wrong, Mr. Second Brother, he has attracted the officers and soldiers from the imperial court!"
