Chapter 446: Border Refugees

() The officers and soldiers led their horses and walked there, in front of them were endless mountain ridges, and the endless mountains were already covered with flowers, Yin Qingqi rode on the horse, and his mood was slightly better, and he was no longer thinking about the affairs of the court.

"This is ......"

A small mountain village appeared in front of it, and in such a desolate place, there would be a mountain village!

"Perhaps the Turks, miss, have to be careful in everything." The officers and soldiers frowned, the most important thing at the moment is that the escort Yin Qingqi can go back unharmed, if Yin Qingqi really has any mistakes, he can't afford it.

"Miss, Miss......" The officers and soldiers looked back, Yin Qingqi had already dismounted and walked towards the village in front.

"It's okay, we're just dressed as ordinary farmers, and no one knows who we are." Yin Qingqi smiled, not taking the words of the officers and soldiers to heart at all.

"This mother-in-law, where are you from?" Yin Qingqi asked an old man, now it is the border between the two countries, and countless people live here, and there is no concept of a country.

"I'm here from abroad." The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and his old face was full of grievances.

"Little girl, you've been fighting a war lately, what are you doing in a place like this?" The old man swept Yin Qingqi up and down, looking at Yin Qingqi's appearance, he didn't look like a poor family.

"Miss, beware of fraud." The officers and soldiers carefully reminded on the side, Yin Qingqi nodded silently, and had a certain number in his heart.

"What does the old man say? I'm the daughter of the medicine dealers around, and I'm here just to collect some medicinal herbs. Yin Qingqi smiled, his gaze moved slightly, and fell on the old man.

Although the old man's body was stained, there was no mud at all on a pair of cloth shoes!

This inevitably made Yin Qingqi suspicious.

"Old man, you shoes...... But it's clean enough. Yin Qingqi frowned, said sideways, and at the same time glanced at the officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers understood and looked around vigilantly, for fear that someone would suddenly appear and plot against Yin Qingqi.

"Alas, it's not that my son came back from Yanzhou and bought me a new pair of shoes, we farmers, where can we wear such good shoes, but my son has to refuse, he must see me wearing them on his feet before he is willing to leave." The old man shook his head helplessly, with a happy smile on his face.

Then your son is really filial enough. Yin Qingqi nodded, gradually letting her guard down.

Yin Qingqi talked with the old man all the way, walked around the village, and arrived at the border in a blink of an eye.

"Old man, you just said that it is dangerous, why are you still living here?" Yin Qingqi frowned, her eyes full of pity.

"Alas, people like us, all of whom are not with their children, and who have no fixed place to live in the first place, are happy to be quiet when they come to the bottom of this ridge." A wry smile appeared at the corner of the old man's mouth, and he looked at Yin Qingqi lightly.

"Why did the old man say that?" Yin Qingqi frowned, could it be that this entire village exists to escape from the government?

"We can't afford to pay taxes in the first place, so we ended up in this place, otherwise, who doesn't want to live in the city, the taxes are too high, and we have no choice, when the time comes to war, the pond fish will be affected, and we can only flee with it." As the old man spoke, he shed a few tears, and Yin Qingqi, who saw it, was also sad.

Yin Qingqi originally wanted to reward some silver taels, but was stopped by the officers and soldiers on the side, and slowly shook his head.

The two of them originally came to this wilderness with hidden identities, and if it was discovered that Yin Qingqi was originally the identity of the crown princess, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Old man, you are really pitiful." Yin Qingqi gritted her teeth and endured it without coming to the rescue.

Now in this dangerous period, coupled with what Chang Lei said, Yin Qingqi is even more worried, adding distress to Xue Tan and Qi Yuan, not to mention, it is no longer a peaceful year, so there is no room for such nonsense.

"Old man, you still have to let your son come back often."

Yin Qingqi glanced at the state of the village, it was almost all ruins, not suitable for human habitation at all, and he only lived here to make a living.

Not to mention the snake, insect and plague, even the cold wind of this winter is difficult to bear, and it is unthinkable that the old man can survive in such an environment, which is undoubtedly the result of the struggle between the two countries.

There has been a conflict with Yanzhou all the year round, the two armies are at war, and it is naturally the surrounding people who suffer, and the old man lives on the border, so he naturally can't escape this result.

Yin Qingqi resigned from the old man, and continued to wander around the edge of the two countries under the care of the officers and soldiers.

In the blink of an eye, I went deeper, official

The soldier glanced around, it seemed that this place was already a territory of the country, and he was slightly worried.

"Miss, we've gone too deep."

The officers and soldiers carefully reminded Yin Qingqi that they had to be sloppy, besides, Yin Qingqi's importance to General Xue and the crown prince was already known to women and children, and it had already spread in the barracks, and the officers and soldiers did not dare to joke with their lives.

"Miss, let's go back, here, I'm afraid we will meet the officers and soldiers of the neighboring countries." Seeing that Yin Qingqi did not react, the officers and soldiers carefully reminded again.

"Okay, I got it." Yin Qingqi skipped a trace of irritability in his heart, and looked at the officers and soldiers with dissatisfaction, originally thinking that he would come out to walk around, but he encountered this kind of thing, and every step of his own was restricted, compared to the capital, he was not as good as the capital.

"It's ......"

Yin Qingqi looked ahead, and in front of him was a plainly dressed woman, cleaning her clothes by the stream, but she was surrounded by two or three people.

"Let go of me, you let go of me!"

The woman struggled and almost fell into the water.

"The little lady has a really strong temperament, I like it." The man at the head of the man with a beard on his face and a wicked smile searched for the woman.

"Little lady, this is the border, even if someone hears it, no one dares to save you." The other two touched the knife at their waist and looked around.

The two of them saw Yin Qingqi at a glance, and stretched out their hands to point this way.

"Hey, look, there's another one." The two glanced at each other, revealing an evil and happy expression, and the officers and soldiers saw that the posture was not good, and they hurriedly drew their knives to block in front of Yin Qingqi.

"Miss, get on the horse, you go quickly!" The officers and soldiers reminded in a low voice, Yin Qingqi frowned, and the feet that were originally on the horse's back jumped lightly and jumped down.

"Miss, you...... What are you doing here? The officers and soldiers looked at Yin Qingqi in surprise, with a panicked and puzzled face, if Yin Qingqi was caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Don't worry, I'm in control." Yin Qingqi stared at the woman who was tightly clamped by the man, and the man also turned his senses at this time and swept up and down towards Yin Qingqi.

"Here's a door-to-door one."

Seeing that Yin Qingqi was more beautiful than the woman in his hand, the man hurriedly pushed the woman away, pulled the two of them back, and let him look at the woman who was sitting on the ground.
