"Master Xu, with Ninth Princess's methods, I will definitely not let you get the handle."
The great eunuch said: "Meng Tianhai will definitely say when he comes back that they did not catch up with the enemy and let the enemy escape. We have no way to verify it."
"Whatever, as long as the plateau cavalry didn't come, that's fine."
Fatty Xu said nonchalantly.
"I'm telling you, you should ask around before you come. Gada has no signs of using troops at all, so why do you come just now?"
The Xie family followed.
Before they came, they all understood the situation in Sichuan and Sichuan, and also deployed some spies in the border areas.
If Gada comes, it will be difficult to hide it from them.
When I suddenly heard that the plateau cavalry had been discovered just now, I thought that Gada and his troops had bypassed their line of sight and were attacking from other places, so I was so frightened.
Now after listening to Goatee's analysis, the dignitaries all relaxed.
As for the impact of closing the city gate, they don't care at all.
All you need to do is bribe a few soldiers guarding the city. When the time comes, you can put the letter in the hanging basket and you can control the outside by remote control.
"Everyone should not take it lightly."
Goatee reminded: "Qing Xinyao's bad move shows that the Ninth Princess has begun to fight back. Everyone should act as soon as possible according to the plan. Don't cause trouble again if it's too late."
"Yes, sell the food quickly and leave. Sichuan and Sichuan are damp and cold. I will never come back again."
The dignitaries nodded one after another and then dispersed.
Only half an hour later, their respective stewards sent the orders of the dignitaries outside the city.
The white gloves trained by various families also took action quickly.
One after another, homing pigeons fly to the bandit nests in various places in Sichuan and Sichuan.
Some quick-moving bandits began arranging for people to deliver grain to the landlord's granary that afternoon.
In Xihewan, the Ninth Princess finally received a reply from Xichuan.
Qing Xinyao has been operating in Xichuan for many years, and the small moves of the powerful cannot be hidden from him at all.
"If they put this thought into serving the country and the people, how could Dakang have fallen to this point?"
The Ninth Princess handed the letter to Jin Feng, with a fierce light flashing in her eyes: "They expected that I would not dare to kill them!"
Before, it was Jin Feng who insisted on killing the powerful, but now the Ninth Princess also had murderous intentions.
The supply of food in Sichuan and Shu was originally in short supply, and today the powerful officials cut the shipments from various places by half, which directly caused panic among the people, and the price of food also continued to rise.
Before, it was two or three times that of the same period last year. In just one afternoon, it rose by another 30%.
And money may not necessarily buy it.
"These bastards have already taken action. Can we leave tomorrow?"
Jin Feng asked with a cold face.
"Okay!" The Ninth Princess nodded: "Sir, please inform the escort to leave early tomorrow morning. You don't have to bring too many people with you, and you can get to Xichuan as quickly as possible!"
The dignitaries acted much faster and more ruthlessly than the Ninth Princess expected.
Now there is no need for Jin Feng to urge her, the Ninth Princess can't even sit still.
If the rich and powerful are allowed to cause trouble for a while, Sichuan and Sichuan will be finished.
Even if we get food by then, we may not be able to control the situation.
"good!"
Jin Feng nodded and called Da Liu in.
Early the next morning, before the morning fog had cleared, Jin Feng and Ninth Princess set out.
All escorts ride three horses and travel lightly.
The team only rested three times along the way and rushed to Xichuan as quickly as possible.
At this time, the Xichuan City Gate was still closed, and the Ninth Princess did not go to call the gate, but took Jin Feng to Laoougou.
It was here that the people gathered when they broke through Danzhu's military and horse camp.
After the Ninth Princess bought the war horses from the common people, she transported some of them away and left the rest in Laoougou. She also specially transferred a third-class army to guard the war horses and also train the skills of riding and archery.
At this time, Meng Tianhai was hiding in Laoyugou.
Seeing Jin Feng and Ninth Princess, Meng Tianhai grinned widely.
"Your Highness, sir, you are finally here!"
Ever since Qing Xinyao was deposed, Wei Shengjun has been making things difficult for him everywhere.
It was originally an elite main battle force, but was sent by the eunuch to defend the city together with the soldiers.
The military pay and food supplies were also deducted a lot, and there were rumors that the eunuch was preparing to replace Meng Tianhai.
Meng Tianhai had been worried about this for a long time.
Seeing Jin Feng and Ninth Princess again, I finally felt at ease.
"How is the situation now?" Ninth Princess asked.
"It has now been found out that these bastards bribed the soldiers who were guarding the city and used the hanging basket to send messages to the outside world."
Speaking of this, Meng Tianhai's face became very ugly.
Because among the soldiers who were bribed, there were not only government soldiers, but also several people from the Weisheng Army.
"General Meng will handle these matters by himself. I would like to know, did Fatty Xu and the others run away?"
"No, all the people on the list His Highness gave me are in the city, and not one of them has escaped!"
Meng Tianhai patted his chest and promised.
"Have they found all the middlemen who secretly contacted the bandits?"
"I found it. Mr. Qing has sent people to keep an eye on it. We can catch it at any time!"
"very good!"
When the Ninth Princess heard this, her brows finally relaxed: "General Meng, go back to the city, it's time to meet them!"
"yes!"
Meng Tianhai agreed, turned and left.
The dignitaries had been sending people to keep an eye on Xihewan, and they found out not long after Jin Feng and Ninth Princess left.
When Jin Feng and his party arrived at the North City Gate, the chief eunuch was already waiting on the city wall.
"Put the hanging basket down and Ben will go up!"
Meng Tianhai stood under the city wall and shouted.
The guards in charge of the North City Gate have been replaced by more obedient soldiers by the eunuch.
Hearing Meng Tianhai's shouting, the captain of the Fubing Academy who led the team quickly turned to look at the eunuch.
The eunuch did not embarrass Meng Tianhai on such a trivial matter and signaled the captain to put down the basket.
"Our guess is that General Meng must have not caught up with the plateau cavalry, right?"
The eunuch looked at Meng Tianhai with a half-smile.
"He was originally a eunuch, but he still speaks in a strange manner. No wonder he has cut off his descendants!"
Meng Tianhai curled his lips and took a few steps to the side.
"Bold Meng Tianhai, he dared to insult Mr. Zhou Mu, he deserves to die!"
The Lieutenant of the Fubing School was promoted by a eunuch, so he was naturally loyal and shouted angrily: "Lord Zhou Mu, please allow me to kill this thief!"
"His Highness is watching from below the city. We don't dare to kill General Meng!"
A fierce light flashed in the eunuch's eyes, but was suppressed immediately.
Pointing to the Kaicheng documents on the table next to him: "General Meng, stop using your words and quickly open the city gate and let His Highness and Mr. Jin enter the city?"
Meng Tianhai snorted coldly, took out the military talisman from his arms, and stamped it on the Kaicheng document.
The eunuch signaled the captain to take the documents and go down to open the city gate.
Meng Tianhai looked around and found that all his men had been transferred away. He took off the hand crossbow from his waist, raised his hand and fired a loud arrow into the air.
"What are you doing?" the eunuch asked with a frown.
Nowadays, sounding arrows are no longer uncommon in Xichuan. Common people know that they are used to recruit men, and their function is equivalent to the general drum.
The eunuch instinctively felt something was wrong.
"My personal guards are all gone. Can't we ask them to come together to greet Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
