Now the fiefdom of the eldest prince can be described as full of dangers, surrounded by the royal court, Jialanga and the nineteen princesses, except for the six highnesses in the northeast who are his allies, the others are his enemies.

Therefore, most of the eldest prince's current forces are mainly distributed in the borders bordering the royal court and the nineteenth princess, and the others have no time to take care of it, so they can only gamble that Jialanjia does not dare to invade without permission. After all, she is an alien, and once she invades, the Nine Princesses will not agree! And the Sixth Highness has no defense there at all, and if the Sixth Highness forcibly occupies the fief of the eldest prince, it will inevitably trigger the cooperation of the Nineteenth Princess and the Seventh Princess.

The army to guard against the nineteenth princess has a total of 500,000, which is also the largest force that the eldest prince can come up with, relying on the fortifications is relatively strong, and he is ready to fight here, and half of the other men and horses are in their own fiefdoms to quell the rebellion.

Now the prince does not let the people move, but the taxes are still increasing, and the remaining people have long been overwhelmed. Those who can still persist in farming and survive are relatively prosperous places, and they are also places that the troops can take care of.

This time, Zhu Xiaobao went alone, and it was also the idea of Zhu Rong and the Nineteenth Princess and others, this guy was too carefree, and he simply didn't want to make progress. After careful calculation, it seems that Zhu Xiaobao has really never acted alone, and at worst, he is accompanied by Jumei or an old apprentice. So this time, Zhu Rong discussed with the nineteenth princess and decided to let him go to the fiefdom of the eldest prince alone.

Of course, there is another important reason, that is, the fief of the West King is too busy now, so many people have to settle down, allocate land, and register and make records, they are all busy, so this time let Zhu Xiaobao go to experience it alone!

With Zhu Xiaobao's current cultivation, there should be no danger! Just now I received a message from the Great Venerable of Jiuyin, saying that Ji Zhihui went to the fief of the Sixth Highness, so Zhu Rong and the Nineteenth Princess were relieved to let Zhu Xiaobao go to the fief of the Great Prince alone.

Although it is heavily guarded, it is still very easy to pass through the opponent's defensive area with Zhu Xiaobao's current cultivation. He chose to sneak into the fiefdom of the eldest prince in the middle of the night, and without using the magic phase, he easily avoided the bright and dark sentinels everywhere and entered the rear.

Originally, I wanted to set a fire, but when I went around to the granary, Zhu Xiaobao gave up this plan, it was so pitiful, there was not much food left in the granary. That is, they can barely ensure that the soldiers eat half a pack, and as for those coolies and slaves, they can only eat one meal a day, or also wild vegetable gada bean cakes, or drink half a bowl of wild vegetable paste. Zhu Xiaobao couldn't bear to see it, so he didn't do it.

After the defensive area, there is no danger, Zhu Xiaobao also changed into very ordinary clothes, and walked on the road in a grand manner, he felt that he was already dressed very ordinary, but it was still too conspicuous, so clean and so bright, this is in the poor countryside, that is a local tyrant! Besides, he also brought a large package, which was full of food. It didn't take long to recruit several groups of bandits. Now the fiefdom of the eldest prince is rampant with bandits, in fact, many of them are ordinary people who have been forced to have no way out, and of course there are some habitual bandits who take the opportunity to strengthen their strength.

Of course, there is still a good difference between those habitual bandits and ordinary people, it can be seen from their clothes and faces, those who are forced to fall into the grass are all yellow and thin, and they have no martial arts, and the requirements are also very simple, they just want to grab some food, and they are not willing to kill. And those habitual bandits are very fierce and generally do not leave a living mouth. Therefore, Zhu Xiaobao is also treated differently, and when he encounters those habitual bandits, he will also kill them ruthlessly!

So Zhu Xiaobao went all the way, not only did he not lose anything, but he also had dozens of taels of gold on his body, and some dried meat and food, which were all scavenged from those bandits, and he did not waste it, so he gave it to the poor people he met, especially those who dragged their families and begged along the streets. He just kept a horse, which was a means of transportation.

Finally, I arrived at a relatively lively town, which belongs to Yeqing County, and further north is Yong'an County, which is the county where the palace of the eldest prince is located, and it is also the most important and prosperous county in the fiefdom of the eldest prince.

The inns in the town are almost closed, only two are still in business, and since the war between the eldest prince and the ninth princess, the merchants who come and go from the fief of the king of the west are also gone, because the nineteenth princess ordered that they are not allowed to do business in the fief of the eldest prince. Now the only one who still has business dealings with the fiefdom of the Great Prince is His Royal Highness the Sixth, and there are still many caravans coming and going from him.

Therefore, Yeqing County is very depressed here, the town is also deserted, and there are no people in the two inns, because the accommodation in the inn is still very cheap now, but to provide food, it must be calculated separately, and now the food is too tight, and the inn is also purchased at a high price, so as to barely maintain the operation of the inn.

Zhu Xiaobao ate the most unpalatable dinner ever, the price was not cheap, and he asked him for two taels of silver, Zhu Xiaobao shook his head and sighed: "Xing! The people are bitter! Death, the people suffer! Not bad at all! Looks like I'm on a big mission this time! Save the people from fire and water! ”

The next day, I got back on the road, hired a carriage, and went straight to Yong'an County, which was relatively better on the way, after all, there were officers and soldiers patrolling, the law and order was better, and there were still people working in many places. But there are still one-legged thieves, these people rely on their martial arts to rob the rich, and they can also live a very prosperous life in this troubled world. It's just that it's unlucky to run into Zhu Xiaobao, and they were all robbed by Zhu Xiaobao!

When I arrived in Yong'an County, the city gate here was very strictly checked, after all, it was the location of the palace of the eldest prince, and the defenders and people here had to be neatly dressed, and their complexions were much better, and those who could stay here were people or families with certain relationships and strength.

This time Zhu Xiaobao entered the city from the city gate, he took the identity cards of those one-legged thieves, and entered the city in a grand manner, and he was able to answer like a stream, he came to Yong'an County to join his relatives, and along the way, Zhu Xiaobao also did his homework, and asked a lot of information clearly. Anyway, he didn't have any weapons on him, but the beef jerky and mille-feuille that he brought were forcibly detained by the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Now my eyes are shining when I see food!

Zhu Xiaobao didn't care too much, a little helplessly entered Yong'an County, this county is more prosperous, the population is also a lot more, and you can still see people coming and going on the street, but people's faces are solemn, not smiling, and they are in a hurry to walk.

Not far from the inner city where the Yong'an Palace is located, Zhu Xiaobao found a family to live in, bought some rice, noodles and vegetables at a high price, and then started cooking by himself.

As soon as a few side dishes were cooked, a thin figure appeared at the door, which startled Zhu Xiaobao, not because he suddenly appeared, but because of the scars on his face, and even the exposed forearms had horizontal and vertical scars, but through these scars, Zhu Xiaobao could still be sure that this person was not very old, and he was a very delicate girl! It's just a woman dressed as a man! It seems that there is a conscious desire to disguise his appearance and figure. She was followed by an eleven or twelve-year-old boy,

This boy is very cleanly dressed and has a good face, it should be the inheritance of his parents, this sister and brother are very handsome!

"You...... What is burned, it is so fragrant! The girl standing in front asked a little shyly, but she couldn't help but be curious, and more importantly, they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and her brother had been pestering her and wanted to come over to have a look, so the sister and brother ran quietly behind their parents' backs.

"Huh! This is sweet and sour short ribs, this is pork liver fried in sauce, this is garlic spinach, and by the way, there is a soup ......" Zhu Xiaobao said with a smile, this situation is not strange at all, every time he makes a move, he will attract a lot of diners, he is a chef!

"Wow! How did you make it smell so good! Is it tasty? The girl exclaimed in amazement, and then asked tentatively, mainly because the little boy behind her kept scratching her, and he was almost unable to bear it!

"It's delicious or not, don't you know if you sit down and eat it together?" Of course, Zhu Xiaobao knew the meaning of this sentence, so he said with a smile, every time like this, it is when Zhu Xiaobao has the most sense of achievement, and he also just wants to know about the situation in the inner city of the palace and what kind of major events have happened recently!

"Hmm...... But...... But...... We can't eat the things of the guests! The young lady swallowed her saliva and said with difficulty.

"Hee-hee, it's okay, why don't I tell your parents?" Zhu Xiaobao said very understandingly.

"Wow! Thank you so much! You're so nice, what's your name! I'll give you the money! The young lady cheered happily, and then said very reservedly, it can be seen that they are also from a big family, and they are very knowledgeable. I don't want to eat all the treasures in vain! It's not easy for anyone now! What's more, he's still an outsider!

"No need, as long as you tell me about the inner city of the palace and the king of Yong'an, how about it?" Zhu Xiaobao waved his hand, and then sat down and said first.

"That'...... All right! Thank you, boy! The young lady said very politely, but when she sat down, she became less reserved, and she ate with her brother, and was very happy!

Zhu Xiaobao is also very happy, this kind of eating atmosphere is the most flavorful, this time he ate a meal that was difficult to swallow for a few days, so the meals he made today were mainly meat-based! It's a pity that there is no good wine around, otherwise it would be more enjoyable!

While eating, they were still talking, and the young lady ate happily, and the conversation became more: "Oh, you don't know, if you don't make your company like this, you will be chosen to take it to the palace!" You don't know, the eldest prince is not only lascivious, but also cannibalistic! Specializes in eating seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls. Now the eldest prince has handed over the fief to the two princes to manage, and they are even worse, even those young women who have become married, and those widows have been forcibly taken away. Originally, our family also lived in the inner city, and we moved out because we were afraid of insecurity! That's what I'm like this! ”

"Oh! I can't think of anything more hateful than I've heard! These bastards shouldn't live in this world! Zhu Xiaobao was immediately shocked and angry, he had now considered whether it was the right choice to lobby the eldest prince this time! Will such a man still have to subdue him?

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and a team of war horses had arrived at a rapid pace, and the people on the horses turned out to be the Ouchi guards in the palace! All of them are extraordinary! In a blink of an eye, the house where Zhu Xiaobao lived was already surrounded!
