204.Chapter 204: Encounter with a bandit

Yuan Jinyu asked again: "I don't know why the little marquis came to the capital?"

"These, the subordinates don't know, what the little Hou Ye said to the Hou Ye is just to go to the rivers and lakes and see the world. The butler was visibly embarrassed.

Yuan Jinyu knew that if he asked him again, he couldn't say anything, so he hugged Xiaoyu and said, "Okay, leave this cat to me, and wait for the little marquis to arrive in the capital and come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pick it up." ”

Thinking that he was traveling alone, there was no carriage, and Xiaoyu also suffered with him.

When the housekeeper saw that Yuan Jinyu agreed, he took a long breath and left non-stop.

Yuan Jinyu took Xiaoyu to his cabin, looked at Xiaoyu's heartless appearance, and thought that Mo Qinghan valued this little thing so much, he had to treat it well.

Xiaoyu is very satisfied as long as she follows Yuan Jinyu, and after she wears it, although it has a cowardly temperament, it is still well-behaved, and she only plays in the cabin every day.

After walking on the water for a few days, I almost reached the boundary of the capital.

Yuan Jinyu was sitting in class A with Xiaoyu in her arms, and the wind was a little strong, so Ginkgo specially took a cloak for her.

Yuan Jinyu looked at the sky dyed red by the sunset in the distance, and couldn't help but ask Xiaoyu in his arms: "You say, what is Brother Jiu doing now? Oh, I forgot that you don't know who Brother Jiu is." ”

None of the people on the boat could talk to Yuan Jinyu, these **** people have seen the old lady, and they are holding Xiaoyu.

Yin Xing stood behind Yuan Jinyu, feeling that if this matter was known to the little Hou Ye now, the little Hou Ye would definitely be very angry.

This cat was handed over to Miss by Xiao Hou Ye, it is said that every time Miss sees this cat, she should think of Xiao Hou Ye, but Miss now clearly thinks of the most, it is King Ning.

What is King Ning doing now? He is now entangled in a gang of robbers deep in the mountains outside the capital.

This gang of robbers has been king of the mountain for a long time, and in the past it was just a small fight, and there was no big trouble. But recently, these people have intensified, not only the pedestrians and dart masters on the road do not let go, but they also go down the mountain to rob houses and houses, rob money and women, and have caused the people to complain.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, they can still be so arrogant, and the emperor's desk has been put on a lot of folds in the past few days, hoping that the Royal Forest Army will recruit this gang of bandits.

When the emperor learned that someone could still be so presumptuous under his nose, he was very angry, and after thinking about it, he handed over this task to King Ning, along with the military power of the forbidden army.

The court was unpredictable. Some people say that the emperor does not have any deep meaning in doing this, after all, among the princes, only King Ning is a serious military general, and the military power of the forbidden army will be taken back after this gang of robbers is pacified;

Some people speculated that the emperor may have long had the idea of handing over the forbidden army to King Ning. After all, King Ning's soldiers are all in the southern Xinjiang or the northwest wasteland, and the forbidden army in the capital is always held by King Duan.

If you watch King Duan become bigger, it is not good for the imperial power, and now handing over the military power to King Ning can be regarded as weakening the power of King Duan.

So at this moment, King Ning is leading the forbidden army and constantly inquiring about the whereabouts of this gang of thieves from the wild.

In the far suburbs of the capital, there is a deep mountain, known as the Jinglin Mountains.

I don't know how many years ago the mountain forest was formed, because the terrain is dangerous, and almost no people will enter it. In addition, the robbers occupied the mountain as the king, and transformed the place again, and the ordinary people did not dare to enter it, for fear of being thrown into the wilderness.

At this moment, King Ning was in the tent, looking at the map drawn by his subordinates. It turned out that in the Jinglin Mountains, there was still a water source, and the water flow only led to Weishui.

Attacking this road from the Jinglin Mountain Range had been denied by him a few days ago, after all, the environment here was too treacherous, the mountain road was rugged and winding, and it would be difficult for those bandits to hide wherever they wanted, and it would be difficult to exterminate them.

What if you go by water? Can it be successful?

King Ning sat under the lamp and thought about it for a long time before shouting to Thirty outside the tent, "Thirty, you come in." ”

Thirty heard the noise outside the tent, so he walked in and saluted King Ning respectfully.

"Tomorrow you will pretend to be my little servant and go here with me. After King Ning finished speaking, he pointed to a place on the map.

Thirty glanced in that direction: "Your Highness, are you going to Weishui?"

It was already very close to the capital, and Thirty knew that King Ning had been worried about the affairs of this gang of bandits recently, and now as soon as he saw the waterway, he also reacted: "Do you want to find the bandits' lair from here?"

"Just go and test it first, since they can rob money on land, they must not let go of the waterway. ”

Early in the morning of the second day, Thirty and King Ning changed their clothes and went to the outside of the capital to take a boat to the place that King Ning had said yesterday.

And the 20,000 forbidden army was still confused by the enemy outside the Jinglin Mountain Range, and when the news came from King Ning's side, he came directly to meet with the outside.

……

Woke up on another day, Yuan Jinyu counted the days, they had been on the water for four days, and when they stayed until evening, they were going to change to land. Holding Xiaoyu, she came to Class A, looking at the sun rising not far away, she only felt that the river was open, and at this moment, under the sunshine, it looked like a huge piece of beautiful jade.

It was quiet, and then the wind blew across the river, raising her hair and clothes. When I said goodbye to the Tang Mansion, I still didn't change my mind not to marry to the Tang Mansion, and the old lady seemed to be a little angry with herself these days, except when she asked for peace, she was not allowed to go over.

Seeing that it was time to say goodbye again, Yuan Jinyu handed Xiaoyu to Ginkgo, and then went to the old lady's cabin.

As soon as she entered, she smelled the faint smell of incense, and the old lady was now in the cabin chanting Buddhist scriptures.

Seeing Yuan Jinyu coming, thinking that he had been drying this girl for a few days, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "You, you are not a worry-free person." ”

Yuan Jinyu smiled slightly, leaned over and grabbed the old lady's arm: "Grandmother, when you left the capital, you said that you would not force Jinyu, Jinyu knew that you were the best for Jinyu, and you were reluctant to let Jinyu suffer a little grievance." ”

"Just say good things to coax me, go and call your two sisters over, and after breakfast, the three of you will take turns reciting Buddhist scriptures for me. After the old lady finished speaking, Yuan Jinyu responded crisply and called the other two sisters over.

Even if they look down on themselves on the surface, they will not look at themselves in front of the old lady, after all, they are the most favored one.

After the four of them had breakfast, the old lady really asked the three of them to read the Buddhist scriptures for her.

Yuan Jinyu's voice is the best among the three sisters, and when she read the Buddhist scriptures, she also had a sense of frustration, and those Buddhist scriptures, which she read, were a little more beautiful than the poetry scriptures.

Reading and reading, Yuan Jinyu heard the sound of rain outside. After that, the old lady's eldest maid walked in and said to the old lady and several young ladies: "Old lady, it's raining outside, and you can get to Lincheng in the evening, but now it seems that it's going to be night." ”

Lin City is the city they must pass through when they change their route by land.

The boat they were on was still quite large, and although there was rain on the river, there would not be too much wind and waves, so there was no need to worry about danger.

It's just that I can't dock in the evening, which makes several people a little disappointed. But this is also something that can't be helped, after all, the rain is not something they can control.

So the old lady just lightly ordered: "Let the boatman be careful when driving the boat, don't be in any danger, it doesn't matter if you dock later." ”

Yuan Jinyu didn't say anything, just listened to the sound of the rain getting louder and louder, and was a little unclear.

The three jade recited Buddhist scriptures for the old lady for a day, and when they arrived, they were all tired, thinking that the boat would be better for a while, so they went back to their respective cabins and prepared to rest for a while.

Yuan Jinyu slept a little deeply, and when she woke up, it was already twilight. The rain outside has not stopped, but has a tendency to get heavier and heavier.

She slowly opened the door of the cabin and took a look, and saw that the river was full of white mist from the rain, and in the distance, it was only pitch black, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

The lamp hanging outside the cabin was still swaying in the wind, and the fire was getting fainter and fainter, as if it was about to go out.

The sound of rain hitting the water was constantly heard on the river, mixed with the sound of rain hitting the cabin, which was a little messy.

Yuan Jinyu just wanted to retreat, but he heard the sound of a feather arrow breaking through the air, and then with a "bang", the flickering light just now was extinguished. And looking at the faint light from the cabin, there was a feather arrow stuck in the place of the lamp at this moment.

Immediately, a boatman warned: "There are water thieves!

As soon as Ginkgo heard that there was a water thief, the whole person was stupid, and stood motionless.

Yuan Jinyu has experienced assassination in his previous life, but he has never been in this situation, on the wide river surface with heavy rain, listening to the sound of feather arrows is terrifying.

"Miss......" Ginkgo was about to cry, she really didn't understand, it wasn't during the day and said that she could dock at night, but now she encountered water thieves.

"Don't be afraid, wait and see. Yuan Jinyu gritted his teeth, disrupted his hair bun, and then dragged Ginkgo out of the cabin.

Ginkgo still trembled and asked, "How can it be such a ......?"

"I'm afraid they've been eyeing us for a long time. "Listening to the sound of those arrows, you know that these water thieves may not often be on the water, but they are from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they are protected by officials along the way, and they only travel alone after reaching the boundary of the capital.

And such a good ship, now that it is a rainy day, since they have been targeted, how can they not take the opportunity to do it.

As soon as Ginkgo heard that they had been targeted for a long time, her face was like ashes.

Yuan Jinyu was thinking about something else. In the last life, it was also around the same time, in the Jinglin Mountains on the outskirts of the capital, a group of very strong robbers appeared, or King Ning went into danger alone, found the bandits' lair, and took them together.

Your luck won't be so bad, right?
