"Flower girl...ah? What is this, my concubine? My duty?"
Some old men still wanted to persuade her. They really hated the little Princess Li, and they were also sincerely grateful to Hua Jin for saving them.
So they didn't want Hua Jin to offend Princess Xiao Li.
The people on the ground shouted with pain in their teeth, pointing to the flower brocade on the roof,
"Who are you? Who are you? Ahhh!"
Hua Jin looked at Gu Zun,
"Tell him who I am!"
The entire village, all the city guards and Shence troops, knelt down on one knee and shouted loudly,
"Princess Xiao Li is here. See you, Princess!"
The sound soared into the sky, frightening the birds in the mountains.
The village was completely silent, except for an old man who often scolded Princess Li. He said "Oh," and then everything was quiet again.
Even Ren Yazi, who was hit by an arrow on the ground, was shocked and speechless.
Xiao, Xiao Princess Li herself??
With a "clang" sound, the iron hoe fell heavily to the ground. It was the woman who Ren Yazi gave it to Gu Zun just now, and accidentally knocked off the mining tools placed under the eaves.
Only then did all the young and old men come to their senses, knelt on the ground, and shouted in unison,
"See, see Princess Xiao Li..."
Ren Yazi stood there with his head covered in blood. It took him a while to react, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the village.
But if he can escape, there will be ghosts.
The city guard easily tied up this man Yazi and twisted him before Hua Jin.
She flew down from the roof, lifted her clothes, sat on a stone mill, and asked the man kneeling on the ground, "Yazi"
"Tell me, who asked you to pretend to be my concubine and do harm to the world in Beidi City? Who is your superior?"
In such a big situation, Eunuch Huang of the Imperial Capital is also involved. It is impossible for Ren Yazi to directly confront the Crown Prince of the Imperial Capital.
There must be many people working secretly.
Ren Yazi lowered his head and refused to speak.
Hua Jin is not in a hurry,
"Do you know why there aren't any of you here?"
She smiled, bent down slightly, and moved closer to some people's teeth,
"Because, your people are all dead, and their deaths are quite miserable. Not one of them has complete limbs."
The mountain breeze was blowing gently, and it was clearly the woman's soft voice that fell on Ren Yazi's ears, but she only felt eerie and terrifying.
"Yes, it's Chunmei...ah!"
Before Ren Yazi could finish his words, his eyes suddenly popped out, and he started to twitch hard as if something was stuck in his throat.
After a while, he was frothing at the mouth, his eyes were staring straight, and he looked at the girl next to Gu Zun, but he made no move.
Gu Zun stepped forward quickly and felt Ren Yazi's breath.
"He died because he was poisoned."
Hua Jin looked at the girl behind Gu Zun. The girl looked pale and panicked.
When Jian Huajin looked over, the girl knelt on her knees and cried,
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, My Majesty, please spare your life. I am definitely not the same as this guy."
Hua Jin said nothing.
The ancient master in front of her drew out his sword with a "swish" sound, turned around, and pointed at the girl's neck,
"Tell me, who are you?! Why did he look at you before he died?"
"Slave, my name is Jin Shui. I grew up in Lehu and fled to the North. This man Yazi asked me to serve the man and gave him a lot of money, so he came. I don't know anything about the rest...
..."
Jin Shui cried and told the story of how he came to Beidi, how he met Ren Yazi, and how he was moved by the money Ren Yazi gave him.
He also took out the text of his Lehu prostitute registration.
As she said, her name was Jin Shui, and she fled to Beidi from Guqi Prefecture.
As for Chunmei, Jin Shui had never heard of it.
Gu Zun put away his sword, looked back at Hua Jin, and asked Hua Jin for instructions.
Hua Jin raised her head slightly and looked at the full moon hanging high in the sky.
"That's it for today. Let's pack up the bodies and let everyone settle down first."
She said, looking at Jin Shui who was crying.
Jin Shui covered her face and cried,
"This place is too scary. I want to leave. Oh my god, my lady, please let me leave here. I am a lowly person who only wants two dollars. I don't deserve to be frightened like this."
Hua Jin turned around with her hands behind her hands expressionlessly,
"Miss Jinshui, you must have understood that I am investigating a case. The case has not yet been investigated. No one involved in the case can leave this village."
After that, without waiting to say anything more to Jin Shui, he walked back to his house.
As soon as she left, the strong men in the open space began to whisper,
"Why didn't I understand this? We were deceived in the name of 'Princess Xiao Li recruiting coolies', but in the end, we actually met Princess Xiao Li in person?"
"I thought about it. No wonder they deceived us and treated us like animals. It turns out that this jade mine was mined illegally."
"Hey, your Majesty must have known that someone was using her name to do evil, so she came forward to save us."
"Your Majesty is so kind."
The old and new men in the open space chatted with each other, and in the end they were all grateful to Hua Jin.
In this matter, if Princess Xiao Li hadn't rescued them, they still don't know how they would have died.
Since ancient times, black mines have not had any protection, and countless people have died.
And because it is a black mine, there is no explanation for it.
Gu Zun looked at the performance of these strong men in the open space. So many things had happened. In addition to being full of gratitude to Hua Jin, all the strong men present also had some complicated feelings in their hearts.
The new young men found out that they had been deceived, and their eyes were filled with fear.
And because the old men had the experience of being treated like animals, they all felt that Yazi's death was too easy for her.
This was not the case for the girl Jin Shui. She acted very anxious.
On the second day, after Hua Jin got up and freshened up, she sat under the eaves and listened to Gu Zun's report on the reactions of the young men last night.
After hearing Gu Zun talk about Jin Shui's performance, Hua Jin pondered and asked again,
"Anxious? She is anxious?"
"Yes!" Gu Zun lowered his head, "It seems that I really want to leave here."
"Keep an eye on her and report any unusual movements."
"yes!"
On a new day, the air in the deep mountains is fresh, birds are chirping and tigers are roaring, and fresh rain falls on the empty mountains. It makes people feel like they are in a paradise.
Gu Zun turned around from the flower brocade and was about to inspect the offensive and defensive construction when he saw Jin Shui coming from the opposite side.
She was holding a bouquet of wild flowers in her hand, and with a coquettish look on her face, she stood in front of Gu Zun, bent her knees, and
"Master Jun, do these flowers look good? I gave them to Master Jun."
Gu Zun frowned slightly, took two steps back, avoided Jin Shui, and continued walking towards the entrance of the village without saying a word or squinting.
"Oh~Master Jun~~"
Jin Shui looked at Gu Zun's back, stamped his feet, and chased after him again.
"Master Jun, you heard from me that I am a hard-working man. I just want to make some money. Can you let me go? I promise not to talk to anyone about what is going on here."
She chased after her, but she stepped on something and fell down.
"Oops~"
The tender cry of pain made the strong men watching on the side couldn't help but feel distressed.
Gu Zun, however, did not look back and left with a vigorous posture.
