Chapter 31: The bandit leader is killed

Ji Yanning continued to wait at the foot of the mountain for more than half an hour, and finally saw Cen Qingshan and them coming down with someone tied up.

Although many officers and soldiers were wounded, there was no trace of tiredness on everyone's faces, and they were finally eliminated after being plagued by the bandits of Jinyin Mountain for so many years.

Ji Yanning stepped forward and said, "Lord Cen, the officers and soldiers from Luzhou came just now. ”

Cen Qingshan snorted coldly: "What about them?"

"I told them that the adults had escorted the mountain bandits back to the city, and they hurried to the city of Jiangzhou. Ji Yanning said, "If we go back, we should still be able to take a picture." ”

Cen Qingshan frowned slightly, turned his head and said loudly to the soldiers behind him: "Cheer me up, keep an eye on people! No one is allowed to release anyone!"

"Yes!" the soldiers replied.

Cen Qingshan tidied up the team and continued to walk back with the people.

Ji Yanning glanced at those embarrassed mountain bandits, their hands were tied with horse ropes, connected together, and a bunch of people marched together.

She got on her horse and followed Cen Qingshan's team with her guards.

After a day of tossing, it was almost time, the clouds in the sky gradually changed color, the fiery red was extremely gorgeous, the sunset was scattered on the suburban path, and a group of soldiers slowly marched forward, looking exceptionally quiet.

It's just that this tranquility was soon broken, and the officers and soldiers of Luzhou were ushered in on the opposite side.

Cen Qingshan raised his hand and signaled the team to stop.

"Lord Cen, it's been a long time. The man in the lead on the other side spoke.

Cen Qingshan looked at him coldly: "Pan Zhutou, Zhu Jinghe sent you over, right?"

Pan Zhutou said: "Lord Zhu heard that a household in Luzhou near Jinyin Mountain had committed an incident, so he specially asked the lower officials to come to investigate, and asked Lord Cen to make it convenient for me to send people back." ”

Cen Qingshan said: "What if I don't give it?"

"Since it is our people in Luzhou who have committed something, we will not bother Lord Cen. Pan Zhu said with a smile.

Cen Qingshan said: "If it is committed in your Luzhou territory, it will naturally not belong to me, but they have repeatedly harassed the people of Jiangzhou, and even murdered for money, according to the rules, this is our Jiangzhou case, not to mention that the reporter is a case reported by our Jiangzhou Mansion, but there is no need to send it to Luzhou." You go back and tell Zhu Jinghe, this time he can't protect these bandits!"

His attitude is resolute, how could he just send the mountain bandits away!

Pan Zhutou also knew that they were at a disadvantage now, if it was good to say it before Cen Qingshan caught these people, but now that he had caught the mountain bandits and brought them to the border of Jiangzhou, it would be difficult to say if he wanted people again.

But these mountain bandits know a lot of secrets of Lord Zhu, and if they fall into the hands of Cen Qingshan, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Even if you can't take these people away, you can't let them live anymore.

Especially their big boss, Shi Dapeng, must not let him have a chance to speak again.

Since Lord Cen insisted, the little one naturally didn't dare to say anything. Pan Zhutou smiled, and then said to the officers and soldiers behind him, "Let's go!"

Cen Qingshan waved his hand, and the officers and soldiers of Jiangzhou Mansion gave up half of the way for them to pass.

Pan Zhutou walked forward with the people, and when he saw Ji Yanning not far behind Cen Qingshan, he was slightly stunned, and his eyes showed a sense of hatred.

Ji Yanning met his gaze unhurriedly.

Pan Zhutou wanted to trouble her, but he had more important things to do now, so he turned his head and stared at Shi Dapeng, whose hands were tied with a rope and stared at.

Walking past Shi Dapeng's side, looking at his eager eyes, Pan Zhutou spat a mouthful of phlegm directly at him, his eyes full of disdain.

Shi Dapeng was instantly enraged, and originally wanted to let Pan Zhutou save him, after all, he had done so many things for Lord Zhu, but he didn't expect that he had just fallen into Cen Qingshan's hands, and these people were anxious to get rid of him!

"The surname is Pan, Lao Tzu wants your life!"

Shi Dapeng glared at him angrily, although his hands were tied by thick horse ropes, but in order to facilitate the journey, his feet were not tied, and he stretched out his legs and kicked towards Pan Zhutou's horse.

The horse seemed to be frightened, and with a neigh, Pan Zhu's head fell off the horse.

Shi Dapeng struggled with all his strength and rushed towards Pan Zhutou, and the soldier holding the reins did not notice for a while, and was restrained by him and almost fell.

At this time, the corners of Pan Zhutou's lips hooked up a smug smile, and he immediately pulled out the sword on his waist and slashed at Shi Dapeng.

Ji Yanning looked at his movements, was shocked, and immediately reacted, swinging a silver needle from his sleeve, stabbing him in the left eye!

"Ahh

"Ahh

Two terrible screams rang out in the crowd, and everyone fell silent for a moment, and then heard the sound of the knife in Pan Zhutou's hand sliding to the ground.

Ji Yanning looked at Shi Dapeng, who fell to the ground and swallowed his breath, and sighed secretly, he was still too slow to act after all.

"My eyes...... Oh my eyes!" Pan Zhutou covered his left eye, which was bleeding dark red blood, and rolled on the ground in pain.

Cen Qingshan turned his head and saw Shi Dapeng's body lying on the ground, his face immediately sank: "What's going on?"

Wu Zhutou leaned closer, and he stepped forward and said, "My lord, I don't know what happened just now, Pan Zhutou and Shi Dapeng had a conflict, and then ...... Shi Dapeng was killed by Pan Zhutou. ”

Pan Zhutou's subordinates immediately stepped forward to help him up, looking at his appearance of covering his eyes and hands covered with blood, he felt panicked in his heart.

Cen Qingshan glanced at Shi Dapeng's corpse, and then at Pan Zhutou, how did he not know that Pan Zhutoushi deliberately wanted to find an excuse to kill Shi Dapeng, but now that the surname Pan was injured like this, he couldn't ask anything.

He looked at the sky that was gradually darkening, there was still more than an hour before returning to the city, and it would be dark if they didn't leave, so they could only wave their hands and say, "Take Shi Dapeng's body and go back to the city!"

"Stop!"

Pan Zhutou covered his eyes, the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, he gritted his teeth in pain, and said, "You hurt my eyes, do you want to leave like this!"

Cen Qingshan's tone was not weak: "You killed the prisoner who has not been tried, and the official hasn't settled accounts with you yet!"

"He just wanted to pounce and kill me, such a thug, I'm just fighting back!" Pan Zhutou roared, his voice trembling, "But the man who hurt my left eye, I will definitely not let him go." ”

Ji Jiu said on the side: "At that time, you were entangled with the bandits, maybe the bandits were injured, and now he is dead, what do you want." ”

Pan Zhutou turned his face sideways, looked over with his right eye, and just saw Ji Yanning beside Ji Jiu, and suddenly something shot from Ji Yanning's direction, he pointed at Ji Yanning and said, "It's her...... It was definitely this woman who hurt my eyes!"

Not only did Cen Qingshan not believe it, but none of the officers and soldiers present believed that Ji Yanning was the one who hurt his eyes.

A young lady who looks soft and weak, how could she hurt Pan Zhutou?

Ji Yanning looked at the surnamed Pan with an innocent face: "Don't slander people." ”

Cen Qingshan didn't want to entangle with the officers and soldiers in Luzhou anymore, and said: "When you go back to the town of Luzhou, it will take two hours, and if you drag it out, don't fall into the ditch if you are blind in the dark!"

As he spoke, he rode away with his men and horses without looking back.

The people under Pan Zhutou looked at each other when they heard this, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Ji Yanning ignored them anymore, gently kicked the horse's belly, and under the protection of the front and rear guards, he continued to move forward with the ranks of officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers in Luzhou could only admit it, not to mention that now that Pan Zhutou was injured, they had to take Pan Zhutou back first.

When Ji Yanning returned to Ji Mansion, it was already dark, and after a day of trouble, she was a little tired.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Ji Mansion, Steward Wu hurriedly stepped forward.

"Miss!"

Ji Yanning saw his solemn expression and said with a smile: "Uncle Wu, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Steward Wu said: "The eldest lady can't be willful, how can you follow such a thing as banditry!"

When Ziyu came back, she told him about the eldest lady's today's affairs, but she didn't expect things to be so dangerous, even the guards he sent almost failed to protect the eldest lady.

Ji Yanning said: "Lord Cen has brought a lot of officers and soldiers, and he can't hurt me, not to mention that I have come back safely." ”

"It's better to stay away from such things in the future. Steward Wu said.

Ji Yanning nodded, he knew it.

Steward Wu sighed lightly, knowing that the eldest lady didn't take his words to heart, but said, "The eldest lady is tired for a day, let's go back to the courtyard to rest first, and I have already sent someone to watch over the second lady." ”

Ji Yanning bowed his head and walked back towards his courtyard.

She was indeed tired, and her body was weak from the bumps of the day, so she let Ziyu prepare water for a bath after dinner.

Soaking in the bathtub and almost falling asleep, she got up and put on her dirty clothes, Ziyu helped her dry her hair, and her head was full of green silk and hung down at the waist, without a single ornament, she was as stunning as a hibiscus out of the water.

Ji Yanning sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at his face in the mirror, he was still a little unaccustomed.

After being reborn, she hasn't looked at her face seriously, and the woman in the mirror looks beautiful and refined, such a posture, Rao is rare in Chang'an.

It's just that this face, she seems to be in a hurry to something familiar......

Ziyu saw her young lady staring at the mirror without moving, and lowered her head and chuckled: "Miss is so beautiful, she is even fascinated by herself." ”

Ji Yanning touched his face, but he didn't say the doubts in his heart, so he let Ziyu go down to rest first.

Ziyu closed the door, Ji Yanning was still looking at himself in the mirror, but he couldn't remember where he was familiar for a while.

The wind picked up in the night, rustling the trees in the yard, and the windows that had been ajar were suddenly blown open.

Ji Yanning saw a black shadow flash in the mirror, and a man wearing a night suit and a mask stood behind him.

The man was about to step forward, but he saw Ji Yanning wave his hand, and suddenly two thin lights appeared in front of him, he subconsciously dodged sideways, and looked at the pillar next to him, and inserted two silver needles as thin as hair, and the tips of the silver needles were already black.

It's a poison needle!

Rong Che looked at the woman in front of him, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been poisoned by her.
