Although after the rumors of the female ghost came out, many caravans chose to take a detour and take the official road, not only away from the mansion, but also on the main road. The only inconvenience is that the detour will take at least half a day longer than the original trip.

For merchants, it is not possible to make much more money in this half a day.

As a result, except for a few caravans that were pressed for time and had to be brave enough to approach the road, there were also many brave ones who walked over with a hint of luck.

But even so, the originally lively path on weekdays was quiet, even to the point that except for the occasional caravan passing by, there were basically no bystanders.

And that nest of wandering mountain bandits was not originally here in Kyoto, after all, no matter how bold they were, they didn't dare to make a mistake at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

Originally, they were just wandering outside the castle not far from Kyoto, until recently they heard rumors about the haunted mansion and thought it was a rare opportunity. Only then did he turn around and stay on the hill near the haunted mansion to rob the passing caravans.

And those caravans were already very scared when they walked on the path outside the haunted house, but then they were frightened by the mountain bandits who suddenly came out, where did they dare to resist?

They didn't want to stay here for long, and the bandits only wanted gold and silver, not goods, so they naturally had to consider themselves unlucky, and obediently handed over all the belongings they had with them.

Merchants have always been selfish. At the beginning, one or two groups of people actually didn't say anything about their robbery, they only thought that they had suffered losses, and they had to see that others also suffered losses in order to balance.

It wasn't until there were more caravans that there were more robbed caravans that this matter became big and reached Wei Tingyan's ears.

"How unreasonable!"

After listening to the ins and outs of this matter, Xiao Chumo slapped on the bookcase, and his anger was enough to be seen between his eyebrows.

Wei Tingyan's face also rarely showed a serious look, frowning slightly, obviously worrying about this matter: "This matter shouldn't have been taken care of by us, after all, it was also caused by that ghost house, and it was under the jurisdiction of Lord Lin. ”

However, as more and more caravans were robbed, there were many voices of discontent among the people. If this matter is allowed to develop like this, I am afraid that it will be out of control in the end. ”

The Lord Lin he was talking about was naturally the official sent by Situ Feiyu to investigate the ghost mansion, and he also had some skills. But there is no clue about the ghost house, and now a nest of mountain bandits suddenly appeared, but I am afraid that he is in a hurry.

Seeing that Xiao Chumo was also angry at this time, Wei Tingyan paused, and then told the result of his discussion with his father.

"I have discussed it with my father, and Lord Lin is estimated to be unable to take action in this matter, so he can only come and ask my cousin to send some people to support. If my cousin is not available, I can lead the troops to exterminate the mountain bandits! ”

After saying that, his gaze stopped on the former, waiting for his decision.

Xiao Chumo also knew that what he said was very reasonable, so he didn't shirk it at the moment.

It's just that the ease of using the power of the military is to meddle in a case that has already been handed over to other officials. Before he started to act, he had to go to the palace to find Situ Feiyu for instructions.

"I will enter the palace immediately to ask for an order, and if you want to go with you, stay in the palace and wait for me to come back."

What he was referring to was naturally going to exterminate the mountain bandits.

Wei Tingyan agreed.

Not to mention that he couldn't look at this matter, even if it was just a task assigned by Xiao Chumo, he was very happy to go. After all, with his active temperament, it must have been very uncomfortable to be ordered by his father to stay in the house and think about it behind closed doors for so many days.

The news of Xiao Chumo's entry into the palace was not hidden from Yu Panxi. Although the latter didn't know what Wei Tingyan was talking to him about, he also understood that he was afraid that he would start to be busy again recently.

Such a short time together made Yu Panxi a little memorable. Although there are many things in this life that she has pushed to change, there are still many things that are left and have not yet been touched and happened that she remembers.

According to the memories of her previous life, it would probably take more than a year for one of the vassal countries around Ning to join forces with the other two small countries to officially start a war with Ning Guo.

Although their country is small, it has been in obscurity for many years, and if it were replaced by the Ning Kingdom in the previous life, which was still ruled by Mo Baozhou, it would only barely rely on the military and financial resources accumulated by the previous emperor to gain a little upper hand.

And because these small countries suddenly joined forces to attack Ningguo, the rest of the countries that were eyeing each other began to move. Coupled with the long-term exploitation by Mo Baozhou, many young and strong men in the country also began to gather together to launch a second uprising.

Although Mo Baozhou is now dead and the throne has been handed over to Situ Feiyu, the national situation of Ning Guo has finally begun to improve, and there is a faint thriving scene.

Yu Panxi could not predict the future, and only dared to be sure that at least the second uprising caused by Mo Baozhou would not occur. But the rest of the wars, big and small, will always happen. It's just that the time of appearance may change somewhat because of the actions she made after she was reborn.

And no matter when those wars began to ignite, Xiao Chumo, as a loyal and brave general, it is his bounden duty to protect his family and defend the country.

Ningguo is a vast country, and its frontier is tens of thousands of miles away from Kyoto. If Xiao Chumo goes to the battlefield, he is afraid that he will not be able to go home for a few years.

Reliving a lifetime, Yu Panxi put his whole heart on him, and naturally he couldn't endure such a long separation. The company for a few days made her very reluctant.

"Chulu, you have been with the general for so many years, and you have also been on the battlefield, so you must have some experience. Go and find me some books on the art of war. ”

After thinking about it carefully, Yu Panxi made a decision in his heart and instructed Chu Lu, who was waiting on the side, to get her a book.

When marching and fighting, except for fathers, sons and brothers who are also in the army, generals are not allowed to take their families privately, especially since she is also a woman. If she doesn't want to be separated from Xiao Chumo and wants to follow him at all times, she must have an understanding of the arrangement of troops and be able to help him substantively.

This point, no one thought about it so before Yu Panxi, no one did it.

But in her eyes, Chulu is also a woman. Since the latter can use the hatred of her family as her motivation to kill the enemy, why can't she become his strategic advisor because of the love in her heart?

I have to say that if Yu Panxi says what he thinks in his heart, I am afraid that everyone who hears it will not be shocked.

Chu Lu was also a little puzzled by her instructions, but he still responded, and soon brought Yu Panxi the basic basic art of war that he had seen before. Then she went to Xiao Chumo's study according to her wishes, and took two more books from Xiao Chumo's bookshelf for her.

Xiao Chumo didn't know about the things in the courtyard here. At this time, he was taking the holy decree written by Situ Feiyu himself, and hurried back.
