In this grotto, Hu Li packed a lot of shiny trinkets he liked and put them into his small Qiankun bag, happily holding the Qiankun bag as if he had seen a piece of chicken in front of him.

Xiao Qiao saw that he liked it, so he told Li Huai to remember to pick out all the trinkets suitable for Hu Li and put them in one place, and when Hu Li wanted them, he could go directly to get them.

For this reason, Hu Li excitedly threw himself into Xiao Qiao's arms, called "Brother Xiao" several times, and praised Xiao Qiao again. only praised Xiao Qiao so much that he couldn't cry or laugh, and rubbed his face for a good time.

And they stayed in the valley for two days, and then departed. They also had to go to the northwest, and the treasure of the former dynasty was just excited to look at it, and they were dazzled when they saw too much.

The two did not take the carriage, but rode directly to the shortcut, and caught up with the army in a few days. During this period, except for Shuzhu, who had always been in the know, no one knew about the fact that the two of them had been away for several days, and even the Eighth Prince didn't expect that they would leave a stand-in and leave directly.

There were only a few days left to go to the northwest from here, and the group soon arrived at the place where the original imperial court and the king of Beixian had fought for a long time, Yong'an Pass.

Although Yong'an Pass is not the base camp of King Beixian, it is one of the most important passes in the entire northwest, and this area has been unmanaged since the power of King Beixian was completely eradicated from the northwest. Only General Weng left a team of soldiers and horses to maintain order in this important defensive area, but the others could not do anything.

When the group arrived, a robbery was taking place on the streets of Yong'an City in Yong'an Pass. A somewhat thin man was pressing a somewhat gauntlet man to the ground, snatching the bag in the man's hand, which contained the coarse cornmeal that the man had just bought from the grain store and a pork or two that he had finally bought with great difficulty.

"Let go, old fellow, you let me go." The thin man broke the man's hand away with a fierce face, kicked him viciously, and spat on him, "Bah, you old fellow, just remember your stupid son, haha, when you die, you will see who sent you to death?" ”

The robbed man's face was full of bitterness, and the gray hair between his hair looked even older, and he stood up tremblingly, his right foot was a little inflexible, "Give it back to me." ”

"Phew!" The thin man spat again, "If you want me to give it to you, will you give it to your stupid son?" Am I not your son? ”

The expression on the face of the man standing trembling was even more bitter, how did he not know that the person opposite was also his son, but he had never been close to him since he was a child, and when he grew up, he even ate, drank, prostituted and gambled. If it weren't for his second son who joined the army and became a soldier, he would really starve the whole family to death, but the second son was completely stupid because he injured his head in the war.

"Go fix it." The Eighth Prince was sitting in the carriage with Hu Li teasing the red halberd and the young eagle called the spirit falcon raised by the Eighth Prince, when he heard the noise outside, he lifted the curtain of the car and looked over, and saw this scene.

The guards outside respectfully took two men and rode over, tied up the thin man who had snatched the things, and returned them to the old man.

"Old man, your thing." The guard returned the things to the old man, and the old man took it tremblingly, thanking him gratefully.

"You don't have to," the guard had never been so thanked for such a trivial matter, and he was suddenly a little at a loss.

"Official, let him go, he is my son." The old man glanced at his eldest son who was tied up and was still shouting, sighed helplessly, and pleaded with the guard.

The guard had already heard the words between the two men, and naturally knew that the thin man was the old man's son, so he waved his hand and motioned for the other two to let the thin man go.

As soon as the man was let go, he immediately shouted: "You old thing, you even let people tie me up, why don't you die?!" ”

The guard was on an errand in the palace, and his net worth was not bad, and he had never seen such a bad man, so he immediately drew his saber and put it on the man's neck, and the man suddenly felt as if he had been choked by the neck, panting heavily, but he didn't dare to say another word.

"Let's go down and have a look, that old man is so pitiful." Hu Li was lying on the car window, whether he followed Grandpa Hu down the mountain before, or later followed Xiao Qiao out, all he saw was a scene of comfort and friendship or prosperity and bustle, he had never seen this kind of person, disrespectful to his parents and even scolded and robbed his parents of food.

Xiao Qiao smiled helplessly and rubbed Hu Li's hair, "Then let's go down, Your Highness wants to be together?" ”

Qin Yuyi nodded, although he had been here with General Weng before, but at that time, he was full of how to get General Weng's appreciation, so that General Weng could teach him the art of war. Later, he even risked entering the enemy camp as a prisoner, and even after returning, most of them stayed with the army, but this Yong'an City was not visited well.

The three of them got out of the carriage, Hu Li didn't have as much thought as Xiao Qiao and Qin Yuyi, he ran to the old man and the thin man on his feet, and pointed at the thin man's nose angrily, "How can you say that about your father?" ”

......The thin man wanted to scold him for being nosy, but the knife around his neck reminded him that these people were not ordinary people, and he swallowed his saliva, his eyes showing some fear, but he did not show repentance.

"Uncle, go back with your things, I heard him say that you have a son, go back quickly." Hu Li wanted to send the old man back, thinking that when the old man left, he could teach this unfilial man a good lesson, after all, it didn't seem good to teach people in front of his father.

The old man looked at the man, sighed deeply, and finally said more stiffly, "Don't kill him." ”

"Don't worry, uncle, we won't kill him, just send him to the government so that he can know that it's wrong to rob people and property." Hu Li said seriously, and occasionally looked at Xiao Qiao, seeing that he had no intention of objecting, and the eighth prince also nodded in agreement, and even raised his little head, full of confidence.

Xiao Qiao rubbed his hair with a smile, and smiled at the old man: "Old man, don't worry, we are not people who kill indiscriminately, this is our Eighth Prince, this time I came to the northwest to rectify the chaos here, and everyone will live better." ”

Hearing that His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince was here, not only the old man, but also the thin young man's legs were weak, the prince was a nobleman, and he never thought that he would be able to see a prince, although in this case.

The people who were originally watching the excitement around a few people suddenly knelt together, and shouted tremblingly: "Your Highness Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”

Qin Yuyi glanced at his teacher helplessly, and saw his gentle and smiling appearance that he knew that his teacher was giving him prestige. He raised his hand and motioned for everyone to get up, "Get up, Your Highness is here this time because my father is deeply aware of the importance of the Northwest and knows that if you want to guard the Northwest, you can't do without the support of the people, so you sent Your Highness and Lord Xiao to govern the Northwest together." After the arrival of the officials in the northwest, your life will be stable. ”

Qin Yuyi's words were simple and clear, even the people could understand them, they had always been worried that this was the place where the Beixian King and the imperial court met with their blades, and if the imperial court was angry, they would not want to live a good life.

Hearing Qin Yuyi say that His Majesty was still thinking about them, and he also sent a prince to coordinate governance, he was even more excited and shouted, "Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live, Your Royal Highness, Thousand Years and Thousand Years."

Xiao Qiao looked at the people kneeling on the ground and the Eighth Prince, who had begun to take shape, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In this way, little by little, the hearts of the people will be gathered, even if you are not contaminated by the court, as long as you have a foothold in the army and enough military power in your hands, I will be able to make the officials in the court recognize you as the new emperor.

Feeling that his sleeve was being pulled, Xiao Qiao looked down at Hu Li, "What's wrong?" ”

Hu Li stood on tiptoe, leaned into Xiao Qiao's ear, and whispered: "They are really strange, how can human beings live a thousand years without cultivation." ”

Xiao Qiao raised his eyebrows, looked at the tangled Hu Li and chuckled, Hu Li looked at Xiao Qiao strangely, "Brother Xiao? ”

"Little fool, this is just a prayer," Xiao Qiao pinched Hu Li's nose and gathered the cloak on his body to him, although he knew that he had lived in the extreme north since he was a child, and he would not fall into the wind cold because of a little low temperature, but he still subconsciously hoped that he could be warmer.

Hu Li nodded as if he didn't understand, Xiao Qiao chuckled lightly and stopped talking. He didn't expect Hu Li to understand that the more people in power, the more they wanted to live a long time, so that they could hold the power in their hands for a long time, even if they clearly knew in their hearts that a thousand years old was just a luxury. he

I just hope that Hu Li can live happily, and always maintain such a simple and easily satisfied appearance.

When he was reborn, he only wanted to fulfill the last wish of his previous life and make up for all the unwillingness and regrets in his previous life. But since I met Hu Li and gradually fell in love with him, I felt that the previous regrets were not so regretful.

It's just that he is not a half-character, since he has already started, he will definitely let Qin Yuyi step by step to the throne, and he will also be successfully named prime minister. At that time, he let go of these mundane things and only accompanied Hu Li to be the free and easy person.

Because the people of Yong'an City knew that the imperial court had sent the Eighth Prince to the northwest to temporarily take care of the affairs of the northwest with Lord Qincha, the orders issued by Xiao Qiao and Qin Yuyi could basically be carried out smoothly. Even if there were a few hard nails, they were smashed into the ground by the big hammer of the accompanying army, and they would not come out to respond to the people again.

"What does the teacher think?" Qin Yuyi put the geographical chronicle he got from the official here on the table and gently rubbed the corners of his forehead. Although he had learned a lot from his teacher, it was the first time he had really come into contact with these things, and he was still a little tired, "The northwest is barren, and you can't get rich just by growing food." It would be better to trade with the Yingxian tribes in the north and open a trade route. ”

Xiao Qiao nodded approvingly, "Your Highness's idea is very good, but if you want to open up trade routes, what you need is not just what the people think, but whether Your Majesty agrees." Moreover, this matter is not a small fight before, can Your Highness be mentally prepared? ”

Qin Yuyi looked at Xiao Qiao smiling at him, and also hooked the corners of his mouth to show a smile, looking like Xiao Qiao had three points of imagination, and the remaining seven points belonged to his own pride.

He said that he wanted to be strong, strong enough to protect anyone he wanted to protect, and power and wealth were indispensable.

"His Royal Highness once said that he would be the best student, so look at it, teacher!"
