Chapter 61 Escape from Jingzhou

Author: Fengze Fangfei

Yuan Rujiang was startled by their strong desire to survive. He cleared his throat and said, "The Shi family's power is mainly in Jingzhou. In other state capitals, they don't dare to act too wantonly. They haven't taken action against you yet, they just want to

I will slowly wear you out. Those aristocratic families usually like to play a cat-and-mouse game when they encounter an opponent that is too weak."

Wu Yuli wiped the corners of her eyes and asked in fear: "Sir, what do you think we should do?"

"Escape from Jingzhou!" Yuan Rujiang told them the answer directly without teasing them.

"Escape from Jingzhou?!"

The three women were shocked at the same time!

Mrs. Yuan asked Wu Yuli her doubts, "They have fled Jingzhou and are unfamiliar with the place outside. Where can they go as a prostitute?"

Yuan Rujiang reluctantly took the fan from the lady's hand and started fanning himself, "Didn't I just say that, now that there is an opportunity, I wonder if they are willing to seize it."

Mrs. Yuan pushed him and asked anxiously: "Then you should tell me quickly? What chance?"

Yuan Rujiang was pushed and shook his body, and told the news that Prince Qian's team was about to pass by Jingzhou.

"This is the opportunity I was talking about."

As he said that, he looked at Wu Yuli and said, "If I remember correctly, you and Princess Qian are still old acquaintances."

Wu Yuli was shocked. She nodded, and at the same time sighed in her heart that the dignified governor of Yizhou was as meticulous as a hair and had such a good memory that he even investigated her private acquaintance with Princess Qian.

"They are going to Lingnan this time. The emperor has made a decree that Lingnan will be the fiefdom of King Qian from now on. If you follow them to Lingnan, you don't have to worry about the trouble caused by the Shi family. Relying on your relationship with Princess Qian, your family can also

I can live a good life in Lingnan."

Yuan Rujiang's words can be said to come from the bottom of his heart.

As for the choice, it lies in Wu Yuli's hands.

Of course, in such a crisis, individuals will choose to flee from dangerous places.

Wu Yuli made up her mind to leave with the Mou family without much hesitation.

Fortunately, her natal family was not in Jingzhou, otherwise she would have worried about the Shi family being angry with the Wu family if they couldn't find the Mou family.

Now that the decision has been made, with the help of Governor Yuan, it will be easy for the Mou family to escape Jingzhou.

King Qian's team entered Jingzhou, and Yuan Mingxian left first after receiving the mission.

After seeing off the two hundred cavalry led by Yuan Mingxian, King Qian breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, these two hundred cavalry were the gods of plague.

Now that the God of Plague has been sent away, he feels completely refreshed.

The team entered Jingzhou and headed south, passing through Jiangxia and then to Jiangling. After crossing the river, they passed through Changsha and Guiyang and entered the Wuling Mountains. After crossing the mountains, they arrived at Lingnan.

It sounds simple, but when it comes to actually doing it, the journey is extremely difficult.

As the weather gets hotter, the daytime temperatures also get higher.

The experience of driving under the sun during the day is really not very good.

After driving under the sun for several days, Li Chengmu's face was tanned a lot, especially his forehead and the hand holding the reins.

In the past few days, he couldn't stand the sun, so he took the initiative to sit in Xia Jing's carriage.

"You have become much stronger and improved during this period." Xia Jing looked at Li Chengmu's changes and felt very pleased.

Li Chengmu touched his face. He didn't care much about his skin color. At this time, he was immersed in his account book. Along the way, whenever he passed by a town, his mother-in-law would ask him to take people in to do some shopping.

After buying goods, you also have to buy a carriage. As you spend all this time, the money in your pocket becomes less and less.

"Mother, I think if we continue to spend like this, when we get to Jiangxia, we won't have enough money to buy any more goods."

Xia Jing threw a candied fruit into her mouth and said with a smile: "Why are you so anxious about this? Didn't Mr. Zhang say that he has already discovered a bandit den? Once the bandit den is taken down, you will have money to squander."

"Are you sure there is money and food in the bandits' den?"

Li Chengmu felt that he had not worried about it for more than ten years. This time his mother and concubine caught him and took care of the accounts. His heart was broken.

"Jingzhou is not the devastated north. The climate here is suitable, the water system is developed, and commerce is prosperous. Even the bandits here will definitely be extremely rich."

Xia Jing's eyes were shining, as if there were mountains of gold and silver in front of her.

Xia Jing paid more attention to this bandit suppression operation than anyone else because it was her first battle to recruit young men.

"I hope so." Li Chengmu nodded.

In the first bandit suppression operation, all the guard battalions in Prince Qian's Mansion were well equipped with weapons.

However, Xia Jing's temporary team of one thousand people had very few weapons and weapons. There was no way to sort out the weapons without participation. The one thousand people had no choice but to find weapons on their own.

Farm tools such as machetes, hoes, and sickles have become weapons for strong men.

Xia Jing only hoped that this time in the bandits' den, it would not matter if they had less money and food, but they must not lack weapons. Her team had made a fortune by suppressing bandits.

Mr. Zhang looked up at Xia Jing who was sitting on the horse and advised her for the last time: "Princess, the captain of the guard will lead the army to suppress the bandits this time. Don't worry. You don't need to take risks with her. You can just wait in the camp with peace of mind."

With."

Xia Jing swung her horsewhip and refused with a smile, "Sir, please stop trying to persuade me. No matter how many times you try to persuade me, I will follow you this time and participate in this bandit suppression operation."

Li Chengmu ran over on horseback, "Mother, concubine, do you want me to go to battle and kill the enemy on your behalf?"

Xia Jing waved her hand, "Just stay here and guard the house, and don't try to change my mind again."

King Qian, who was standing in front of the camp, looked at Xia Jing who was riding high on horseback. He couldn't understand why an old woman liked this kind of life of fighting and killing.

During an ordinary bandit suppression, she insisted on joining in the fun, and she wasn't afraid that the bandits would chop off her head without noticing?

Unable to figure it out, he asked the two aunts standing next to him, "If you had the opportunity to go to the battlefield? How would you choose?"

Aunt Sun pursed her lips and giggled: "My lord, are you joking? You asked me to go to the battlefield. How can I go to the battlefield if I can't even climb on the back of a horse?"

Aunt Wang was so embarrassed that a blush crept onto her cheeks, but there was light and envy in her eyes. She also wanted to ride on a horse and do what she wanted to do like Xia Jing.

But

She looked back at King Qian, who was squinting his eyes slightly. She was married to her husband, not to mention that she was just King Qian's concubine. How could she have the chance to go out freely?

King Qian nodded and said in a nonchalant manner, "That's right, you are not her."

Aunt Sun: "." What does it mean?

Women should be as gentle as water. Who wants to follow a man on horseback to kill the enemy like her?

"What the prince is saying is that my sister, the princess, has been climbing mountains and rivers since she was a child. Naturally, I can't compare to her. I have been taught strict rules at home since I was a child, and I can't do this series of actions like my sister."

This remark is an insinuation that Xia Jing comes from a lowly background, unlike a girl like her who grew up in a strict family education.

King Qian's eyes moved around her face, without saying anything, and then moved his eyes to the woman on the horse.
