The Reborn Lady is Farming

Chapter 1247: Confuse

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

No matter how bad it is, you can temporarily rent food from the court, as long as you pay a small amount of interest at the end of the year, so in the Daqi Dynasty, except for the North and West areas that have just been recovered, there should be very few people who are really hungry and become pirates. .

   Besides, this is in the south of the Yangtze River. The economy of Jiangnan has always been prosperous. It is only three or four days away from the capital. The people of the capital and the nearby big cities are not living well. 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 difficult to guarantee that these bandits were innocent.

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

  The guards stopped in front of him and said: "Master Shi, it's too dangerous down here, and we don't know who the leader is, in case..."

   "I didn't know who was leading the army before, but I know now." The little bear went around the guards and walked down, saying loudly: "He used to be my father's side."

  Xiaobao also saw Feibai riding on a horse from afar, and smiled at the guards: "He is the younger brother of your commander."

   Their commander is Lord Shijian, who used to be the person who served by the emperor's side, so the leader of the army was the person who served by the emperor's side?

   That faithfulness is indeed beyond doubt.

  Everyone, please follow along.

   Feibai almost rolled his eyes when he saw the Shizi who suddenly appeared in front of him, he jumped off the horse and saluted, "Master Shizi, why did you come here?"

"We're going back to the capital, and we happened to pass by here," Xiao Xiong asked eagerly: "How long will you have to fight this battle? Do you want us to help? I picked the archers so that you can rush up."

   Feibai hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, they have been surrounded by me for more than 20 days, and their weapons are almost exhausted. If you don't come, I plan to attack tonight."

   As soon as the voice fell, a soldier came to report that they had been ambushed on the retreat road of the mountain bandits, just waiting for the order.

   Little Bear believed that they were going to attack.

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

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

   Little Bear drank a cup of tea and said, "I don't care. Anyway, I came here to ask what happened to these bandits."

  Xiaobao also smiled and said, "Since you are sure that you can suppress the bandits, we naturally won't intervene, so we are also curious to ask why these people are robbers. It is said that they have hurt a lot of people's lives."

   Feibai's face was slightly solemn, and he thought for a while and said, "It's not that I can't tell your Highness and the Prince, but this matter is indeed a military secret. I don't know if the Emperor and the Prince are willing to let you know."

   "Is it related to spies?" Little Bear asked with a sullen face.

   "How do you know?" Feibai's eyes widened slightly.

Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong glanced at each other and snorted coldly, and fooled him: "We also caught a spy, isn't this just one thing, what else can't you tell us? Just say it and listen, if you Let them recognize each other if they can catch a live one to see if they know each other."

   Feibai didn't doubt it, because he saw a man tightly bound by a rope just now.

Thinking that the prince had already started to help the emperor to review the memorials, and the prince wanted to know what the prince never kept from him, Fei Bai hesitated for a moment and then said frankly: "The origins of these bandits have not yet been ascertained, but they are definitely not ordinary people. Falling grass is a thief."

"In the beginning of spring, I was ordered to come to suppress the bandits. The lord and I both thought it was just a small band of bandits, so I didn't bring many people there. It was only after I got to the local county town that I found out that there was no bandits looting the people here at all. I went to ask the county magistrate, except for the case of the Qin family reported by my uncle in the spring, there was no bandit crime. The magistrate suspected that the uncle Qin was bought and murdered. Therefore, I agree with the magistrate's statement that we almost led the troops away, and we were lucky, and there was another major case in the county just before we left."

"It was also a student who went on a study trip and was greedy to see the scenery and walked on the path. In the end, he encountered a mountain bandit who was killed, or was reported to the yamen by a passing villager who found the body. At that time, the six students and their servants who were accompanied by a total of 18 people did not survive. Our intuition is different, this time we expanded the search and found 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 loot the people and wealthy businessmen, but they have food and weapons. Every once in a while, people from the mountain will enter the city. Add some things, and be very careful, if we hadn't discovered them first, I'm afraid we wouldn't have noticed them."

"After we checked it out, we wanted to arrest two people for interrogation first. Who knew they were so vigilant, they found out as soon as we started, and the two people who were arrested didn't speak after using the punishment. We relaxed a little, those two people He committed suicide." Fei Bai regretted: "I was afraid that they would get away, so I sent people to attack them constantly. For the past two months, we have been fighting continuously and blocked the county town. I guess they have all the food and weapons on the mountain. That's not enough, that's why I want to launch a general attack."

  Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong looked at each other. They were just fooling people, but why did people who didn't open their mouths during interrogation sound so familiar?

"I have reported this matter to the lord, and the lord asked me to find out where they came from, so I kept shouting at them to make them surrender, but no matter how much I coerced and tempted the people on the mountain, they wouldn't be moved," Fei Bai said. I felt a little chilling here, and whispered: "These people are comparable to dead men."

  Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong's faces sank, and said, "We must find out!"

  There is such a place so close to the capital that there is such a place that is comparable to the den of the dead. It is really an unprecedented challenge to life safety, okay?

Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong immediately decided that they would not leave. Thinking of the assassin who still hadn't opened his mouth, a cold light flashed in their eyes, and they said solemnly: "If you don't leave any people on the mountain, you can kill them all if you can't capture them alive. There are fish that slip through the net."
