"I used some special tricks, but they didn't have enough strength to stop it." Jing Ge replied calmly, "Want to learn? ”

Yu Jue nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Let Yun'er teach you, and so will she." Jing Ge directly threw the pot to Yu Yun, Yu Jue's talent in martial arts is not high, and he learns very slowly, so he is too lazy to bother.

"I'm going to catch a few live mouths and see who is secretly supporting them." Qianxue is going to chase down the mountain bandits who are scattered and escaped.

"No need, just tell Yue'er about this place." Jing Ge stopped her.

"Isn't Your Highness curious about who did this?" Qianxue asked from the side.

Jing Ge smiled without saying a word, and slowly walked towards the city gate.

"Your Royal Highness, most of you have already guessed who it is." Yu Yun said, she also guessed a few points, how could he not know what she could think of.

"What a person does must have a reason and a purpose, and as long as we look at these things from a higher level, we can see them clearly." Jing Ge said a rather philosophical sentence.

"I don't understand." Qianxue shook her head, and Yu Jue also looked confused.

"What is the purpose of the man who shielded these bandits from taking possession of the city?" Jing Ge asked rhetorically.

Qianxue thought seriously for a while, "Give him a part of the wealth that these people have looted?" ”

"This can be regarded as a small purpose, but it is not the main one, and the people who have the ability to protect them in the emperor will not be too short of money." Jing Ge said.

"I can't think of what his purpose is." Qianxue shook her head, unable to think of a reason.

"How are these mountain bandits who occupy the city different from ordinary bandits?" Jing Ge asked again.

"The gangs here are obviously much bigger than those in the hills outside." Yu Jue said that the bandits who occupied the top of the mountain were rarely a thousand people.

Jing Ge nodded.

"It seems that there are indeed more people, but I still can't figure out the purpose of the person behind it." Qianxue was still puzzled.

"If it weren't for that person's support, these bandits wouldn't have grown so far. These bandits are actually regarded as the private army raised by that person, and they loot the people's fat and ointment as their military salary. There are as many as a thousand people in a city, and if there are a dozen or more of these cities that are occupied? Yu Yun said.

"That's a legion of tens of thousands." After Qianxue was enlightened by the afterglow, she came to her senses.

Yun'er is really smart.

"What are these tens of thousands of legions for?" Jing Ge asked again.

"I'm afraid it's not used to defend against foreign enemies." Yu Jue said.

"This kind of rabble, no matter how large the number is, is vulnerable to the regular army, and I am afraid that it will be used to seek power and seize positions." Yu Yun speculated.

"This trick is a good trick, hiding from the world and crossing the sea, and raising a private army under the nose of the imperial court." Jing Ge said. "But if you have a choice, no one wants to take such a big risk."

"Several princes in the court have their own support, and there are only one or two who need to take such a risk." Yu Yun didn't say which one it was.

"If we hadn't bumped into him, and he really had to gather tens of thousands of bandits to attack the imperial capital, would he be able to succeed?" Chiyuki was curious.

Jing Ge shook his head and said, "There is no possibility of success. If he wants to enter Luoyang through the mountain bandits, he will underestimate those people in the imperial capital, and he has lost the qualification to compete for the throne. ”

"Alas, the undercurrent is surging, each with a ghost in his heart, and the most bitter thing is these poor people." Yu Yun looked around and sighed.

"Yes, I really hope that there will be a wise monarch who will work together to make these people feel better." Yu Jue sighed.

"Hmm!" Jing Ge nodded in agreement.

"What are you looking at me for?" Jing Ge found that Yu Jue was looking at him.

"I noticed that you're a little different from before." Her heart moved, and she suddenly spoke.

"What's different?" Jing Ge is strange.

"You used to just want to protect yourself and your family, but now you seem to want to do more." Yu Jue said seriously.

"Really?" Jing Ge responded casually, noncommittal.

Yun'er beside her smiled quietly, remembering the brilliant galaxy that night, and the distant Kong Ming lantern.

As soon as the bandit leader of Yicheng died, his men scattered and fled.

When Jing Ge entered the city, there were still sporadic bandits who were reluctant to loot the property, and they were desperately packing up, trying to take them out of the city.

The civilians in the distance were watching, watching them clean up, and did not dare to step forward.

Seeing this, Jing Ge felt indescribable in his heart, these civilians were used to being oppressed, their servility was difficult to change, they were used to being obedient, and they couldn't afford to resist.

The bandits here can barely kill a thousand people, and they have enslaved a city of hundreds of thousands of people, which seems absurd, but the reality is so.

If they had resisted a little, the bandits would not have been so rampant.

This scene is familiar.

In another world, there was also a case where a soldier escorted dozens of people to slaughter.

Thinking of this, Jing Ge felt a trace of anger for no reason.

He shouted at the crowd in the distance, "What are you still doing there?" Do you watch these bandits carry your things away? ”

When those civilians heard this, they hesitated for a long time, and finally someone stood up.

"We can't let them take our stuff."

"Yes." Someone chimed in.

"Kill them." After someone came out first, more and more people shouted.

In the end, the crowd was so strong that the rest of the bandits in the city who fled slowly were beaten to death by the swarm of poor people.

The resentment of being oppressed on weekdays was released at this moment, and by the time it calmed down, the bodies of those bandits had already been ravaged and could not bear to look at it directly.

"Listen up. The matter here has been reported to the imperial court, and soon the emperor will send a new official to deal with it. Before that, if any more bandits come, unite and drive them away. Jing Ge stood on a small mound and said loudly.

"As for the goods and food that the robbers have plundered, they are now distributed back to you. It is necessary to come forward in an orderly manner to receive it, and there is no riot, and those who make trouble will be killed. Jing Ge announced majestically, his eyes scanning the audience, shocking those who had ghosts in their hearts and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to reap more benefits.

No matter when and where, there will always be such people.

The treasury that had been piled up by bandits had been guarded by Jingge's guards.

The civilians present were thrilled when they heard Jing Ge announce the distribution of food to them.

"Long live Feiyang, long live the Sword Immortal." They fell to the ground and shouted.

"Ugh." Seeing this scene of thousands of people chanting long live, Jing Ge was a little shy.

Yun'er beside her stepped forward, took off her veil, and said to the audience. "Get up.

"Miss Yun'er has the style of everyone, unlike ordinary women, who are shy and reserved, calm and decent." Qianxue sighed from the bottom of her heart.

"Well, it's completely calm." Jing Ge nodded again and again, she is a former Song princess, and the royal family's bearing is innate, and it is difficult to hide the dust.

"Your Highness, there are too many people, we can't finish them." The subordinate guard said with a sad face.

"Then let them help, and you can keep order. If there is any rebellion, you don't need to ask me, just kill the people on the spot. Jing Ge said.

"Yes." Fu Wei responded.

Don't look at the calm now, Jing Ge knows that in this case, once there is a riot and robbery, there is no possibility of stopping it with more than a dozen of them.

It is difficult to predict how many people will die, so it is necessary to stifle the signs of riots with strong measures.

After the arrangement, Jing Ge left the warehouse and slowly walked up to the city wall, overlooking the land. These old cities, even in the hinterland of Great Qin, are high and deep, and they were built three hundred years ago to resist the demons.

It is now dilapidated, but it is still strong.

The warm-hearted Yu Jue was busy helping to distribute food, Qianxue stood on a high place to watch in case of accidents, and Yun'er followed behind.

When the two of them stayed together, it was quiet.

Jing Ge coughed lightly, a trace of sweetness welled up in his throat, and he choked silently.

The keen Yun'er noticed something unusual, she hesitated, but after all, she didn't speak. When he wants to talk to himself, he will naturally say it, and if he doesn't say it, he doesn't need to ask.

This is the second time since the beginning of autumn that I have coughed up blood, and I noticed abnormalities and changes in my body.

He wasn't surprised, Yue'er had already seen it, so he had to take medicine all the time.

"Autumn is deep, don't catch a cold." Yun'er put a cloak on him behind her.

Jing Ge lightly touched the back of her tie-up hand.

Outside the city, the grass is barren and yellow, and the harvested fields are piled with stacks of wheat.

"I've been here before." Jing Ge said.

Yun'er listened quietly.

"Along with my father, I also listened to him talk about the ancient past of this city."

"Do you remember the past?" Yun'er looked at him.

"I don't remember some of them." Jing Ge replied, and the things of the past gradually became clear.

"What happened in the three years you left the imperial capital? It shouldn't have really hurt the soul. Yun'er was puzzled, thinking that Jing Ge couldn't have forgotten the past because she had fallen.

Jing Ge shook his head, "It must be something else hidden, related to an artifact on my body, but I still can't remember it clearly." He said truthfully.

"It's okay, there will always be a day when I remember it." Yun'er caressed his back and comforted.

"Well, tomorrow we'll continue west." Jing Ge said.

He did not stay in Yicheng, and after the imperial capital got the news, he would definitely send someone over to deal with it very quickly, and those who operated secretly would not escape the fate of being severely punished.

At noon, the group stopped at a small shop next to the road to eat and rest.

Halfway through eating, Qianxue picked up the Frost Sword and stood up to go out.

"Sit down and eat." Jing Ge looked up and said. "Don't dwell on fighting and killing all day, know that violence is not the only way to solve problems."

Qianxue sat back and said with a smile, "But many times violence is the best use." ”

"Can't you reason with people in a friendly way?" Jing Ge took a bite of rice and said vaguely.

"When the First Emperor conquered the world, he once said that wherever I go, my words are the truth." Yu Jue interjected.

"Did the First Emperor say such shameless things?" Jing Ge was puzzled, this was too rogue.

"I did." Yun'er laughed.

"So, the truth is told in iron horses and swords." Yu Jue said proudly, quoting scriptures and classics finally won over Jing Ge once.

"Okay then, Your Highness will go down and deal with them." Jingge stood up.

"Your Highness, please be careful, there are very strong people coming, and there are many grandmasters." Qianxue is very worried and wants to go with her. She sensed a group of people coming towards them.

"Okay, I'll go and go back." Jing Ge waved his hand nonchalantly.

After a moment away from the table, he returned.

Everyone was stunned, "No... Aren't you going to meet the enemy?" Qianxue asked weakly.

"yes, it's done, just eat." Jing Ge picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.

Soon, the sound of horses' hooves stopped outside the shop, and about twenty or thirty men in black with straw hats entered the shop.

Jing Ge lowered his head to eat the food, and whispered to the three of them, "Don't look up at them and pretend they don't exist." ”

"Ahem." The man in black at the head coughed dryly, wanting to attract Jing Ge's attention.

Jing Ge and the others ignored it.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."The shopkeeper stepped forward to greet them nervously, but was kicked aside as soon as he opened his mouth.
