The Reborn Wife is Farming

In recent years, there have been occasional natural disasters in many places, but because Daqi has income from sea trade and high-yield grain seeds, once there is a natural disaster in a certain place, the emperor will reduce or exempt taxes, and send people to help and guide the victims.

No matter how bad it is, you can temporarily rent food from the imperial court, as long as you pay a small amount of interest when the time limit expires. Therefore, in the Daqi Dynasty, except for the newly recovered North and West, there should be very few people who are really hungry enough to become bandits. .

What's more, this is in the south of the Yangtze River. The economy in the south of the Yangtze River has always been prosperous. It is only three or four days away from the capital. The lives of the people relying on the capital and the nearby big cities are not very good. How can there be bandits in this situation?

Because he had just been assassinated, Xiaoxiong felt that there were too many spies from other countries in Daqi, and it was hard to guarantee that these bandits were innocent.

Xiaoxiong took the clairvoyance from Xiaobao's hand and looked at it, and said: "The fighting has stopped, let's go down and have a look."

The guards stopped him and said, "My lord, it's too dangerous down here, and we don't know who the leader is, what if..."

"I didn't know who the leader of the army was before, but I know now." Little Bear bypassed the guards and walked down, and said loudly, "He used to be my father's side."

Xiaobao also saw Fei Bai on the horse with clairvoyant eyes, and smiled at the guards: "He is the younger brother of your commander."

Their commander is Lord Shi Jian, who used to be the emperor's personal servant, so the subordinate leader used to be the prince's servant?

There is no doubt about his loyalty.

Everyone is busy following.

Seeing the prince who suddenly appeared in front of him, Fei Bai almost rolled his eyes, he jumped off the horse and saluted, "Master, why did you come here?"

"We're going back to the capital, and we happened to be passing by here," Little Bear asked eagerly, "How long will you fight this battle? Do you want us to help? The guards with me and my cousin are good at lightness kung fu, why don't we let them go up?" Picking out the archers will make it easier for you to rush up."

Fei Bai quickly waved his hands, "No, no, they have been surrounded by me for more than twenty days, and their weapons are almost exhausted. If you don't come, I plan to attack tonight."

As soon as the words fell, soldiers came to report that they had ambushed on the bandit's retreat route and were just waiting for orders.

Only then did Cubs believe that they were about to attack.

Fei Bai invited the two young masters into the main tent to rest, warmly greeted them with the best meals, and said flatteringly: "You two young masters, why don't you go back to Beijing, it's too dangerous here, I'm done here I have to go back, you two have been out of Beijing for a long time, if you don't go back, the emperor and prince should be angry."

The guards were originally guarding outside the main tent, and they couldn't help pricking up their ears when they heard this, hoping that Fei Bai could persuade the two of them.

Xiao Xiong drank a cup of tea and said, "I don't care, anyway, I came here to ask these bandits what's going on."

Xiao Bao also smiled and said: "Since you are sure that you can suppress the bandits, we will naturally not intervene, so I am also curious to ask why these people turned into bandits. It is said that they injured many lives."

Fei Bai's face was serious, and he thought for a while and said, "It's not that you can't tell His Highness and His Royal Highness, but this matter is indeed a military secret. I don't know if the emperor and prince would like to let you know."

"Is it related to the spies?" Little Bear asked sullenly.

"How do you know?" Fei Bai slightly widened his eyes.

Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong looked at each other and snorted coldly, fooling him and said: "We also caught a spy, isn't that one thing, what else can't we tell us? Just tell us, if you If you can catch someone alive, let them meet each other and see if they know each other."

Fei Bai didn't doubt it, because just now he saw a person tied tightly with a rope.

Thinking that the crown prince has already started to review the memorials for the emperor, and the crown prince wants to know what the prince never hides from him, Fei Bai just hesitated for a moment before confessing frankly: "The origins of these bandits have not been found out yet, but they are definitely not ordinary people. Those who fall into grass become bandits."

"I was ordered to suppress the bandits in the early spring. My lord and I thought it was just a small group of bandits, so I didn't bring many people here. It was only after we arrived at the local county town that we found out that there were no bandits plundering the people here. I asked the county government again, except for the case of the Qin family reported by my uncle in the early spring, there was not a single case of banditry. The county magistrate suspected that Uncle Qin was bought and murdered. At that time, I sent people to look for it in the nearby mountains, but no bandits were found. Therefore, I also agree with the magistrate's statement, and almost led the troops to leave. We were lucky, and there was another big case in the county when we were about to leave."

"It was also a student who went out to study and was greedy for the scenery and took a small road. In the end, he encountered a bandit and was killed. The body was found by the passing villagers and reported to the Yamen. At that time, the six students and their servants who were traveling with them, a total of 18 people, survived Our intuition was different, and we expanded our search this time to find a clue."

Fei Bai took a sip of tea and said, "These people don't look like bandits at all, but rather like private soldiers raised by someone. They gather on the mountain, they don't plunder the people and rich businessmen, but they have food and weapons. Every once in a while, people from the mountain will go to the city Add some things, and be very careful where you go, if we didn’t find them before the nest, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have noticed them.”

"After we found out, we wanted to arrest two people and interrogate them first. Who knew they were so vigilant. They found out as soon as we started, and the two people who were arrested did not speak after using the punishment. We relaxed a little bit, and the two people I committed suicide." Fei Bai said regretfully, "I was afraid that they would get away, so I sent people to attack them continuously. For more than two months, we have been fighting continuously and blocked the county town. I reckon that their food and weapons on the mountain are all It’s not enough, so I want to launch a general attack.”

Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong looked at each other. They were just fooling people, but why is this person who doesn't speak up after interrogation so familiar?

"I have reported this matter to the lord, and the lord asked me to find out where they came from, so I have been yelling at them to surrender, but the people on the mountain will not be moved no matter how much I threaten or lure them," Fei Bai said Feeling a little chilled here, he whispered: "These people are comparable to dead men."

Both Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong's expressions sank, and they said, "We must find out!"

There is such a place so close to the capital, which is comparable to the den of the dead, it is really an unprecedented challenge to the safety of life, okay?

Xiao Bao and Xiao Xiong immediately decided that they would not leave. Thinking of the assassin who hadn't opened his mouth yet, a cold light flashed in their eyes, and they said in a deep voice: "No one will be left on the mountain. If they can't be captured alive, they will all be killed. There are fish that slip through the net."
