Chapter 173: Demand

Jiang Xihu couldn't help but feel a little funny when he heard Li Jicai speak like this, looking at this Zhao Wuxian should have provoked Li Jicai, so that she could say such things directly.

But even so, she listened to her if she helped him so much.

Jiang Xihu said to his subordinates: "Do it." ”

Zhao Wuxian stared at Li Jicai deadly, but Li Jicai didn't look at him.

This cottage on Cuiluo Mountain was realized because of this infighting, plus Li Jicai's boat pushing down the river.

This was something that no one expected, including Jiang Xihu himself. I thought that it was easy to do in my imagination, but when it came to the actual operation, it was inevitable that I would encounter various obstacles.

Rao is Jiang Xihu thinks that he is strategizing, but he is facing people in the capital who are all in the court, and they are all playing tricks of power, where can he meet these barbarian bandits.

The largest group of mountain bandits on Cuiluo Mountain were wiped out by officers and soldiers overnight because of a mountain fire.

As soon as the news came out, the other small mountain bandits on Cuiluo Mountain immediately disappeared. There shouldn't be any more big waves in the time.

The greatest scourge of the land has been removed.

However, Jiang Xihu didn't have time to deal with the rest of the things, so he left with Li Jicai.

The order issued by the imperial court can no longer be delayed, and if you go back any longer, something will happen.

However, he arranged for the officials who came with him to deal with the follow-up matters there, and reported any situation in a timely manner, leaving some people there.

Everything went too quickly.

Li Jicai has made such a great contribution this time, Jiang Xihu can't wait to reward her.

When she was better, he had to ask him how he had set the village on fire.

You must know that there are so many people and so many pairs of eyes in those bandits, and it is almost impossible for Li Jicai to do such a thing.

Or did she really have special abilities that she could hide from everyone's eyes and succeed in doing this?

Also, why did she want that Zhao Wuxian to be sentenced to death by dismembering the body?

At this moment, Jiang Xihu's gossip factor has been completely provoked, and its degree is comparable to Xi Zien, and he will not stop if he doesn't break the casserole and ask to the end.

Of course, this can only be asked after Dr. Wang has diagnosed and treated her. The best medicine had been given to her, and two slaves had been sent to serve her.

This treatment is much better than when Li Jicai came. After all, when he came, Li Jicai was left on the road because he angered Jiang Xihu and left him to fend for himself.

At noon that day, they made a short stop in a shady place, surrounded by lush vegetation and tall trees, and close to the riverbank, which was the best part of the official road back, and it would take about six days to return to the capital.

Jiang Xihu sat on a large natural stone, asked his subordinates to bring pen and paper, and then began to write, about the whole story of the bandits, and the final results.

To be able to complete this matter is extremely happy for Jiang Xihu.

In the past, he didn't like to care about those court affairs, and he was carefree, happy and comfortable every day.

As for when did the idea of meddling in government affairs start to arise, it is nothing more than that the eldest brother is too comfortable, and the father wants to give him the throne for nothing, and the eldest brother can win the world without any effort, why?

are all royal children, even if they are not virtuous, and say that my eldest brother is dead, then don't they have to pass on the throne to the next one? What if the second brother dies? Isn't that just going to be passed on to him?

Jiang Xihu's brothers and sisters have a weak friendship, they are all royal children, how can they have any true feelings?

If it doesn't like the eye, then go for it.

What's more, he, Jiang Xihu, is not incompetent.

The success of this crackdown on bandits is undoubtedly to announce to everyone that he, Jiang Xihu, is capable of literature and martial arts, and is not a strange and incompetent person in their eyes.

There was a lot of thought in his head, but Jiang Xihu's face was still expressionless and cold.

The attendants next to him didn't dare to step forward, because the four princes were used to being moody, and they didn't know when they were happy or when they were angry.

Jiang Xihu wrote a lot on the paper, and many places applied embellishment, as if he had made great contributions in the process of suppressing bandits, and for Li Jicai, he was simply a brush.

After all, the documents in the court are all written like this, and after he goes back, he has to bear additional responsibility, why did he kill the old and young of those mountain bandits and exterminate the nine clans of the people.

In this way, it seems that Li Jicai's merits are offset, so I won't mention her much.

When she was about to finish writing, Li Jicai suddenly got out of the carriage, and two maids helped her down.

Li Jicai's expression was a little indifferent, for no reason, Jiang Xihu felt a little weak, maybe because her credit was not written on the paper, or maybe it was because he looked at him scarred and with a splint on his leg A little miserable, the whole person was gone, and his cheeks were sunken.

Jiang Xihu had to suspect that he was a fool, when he did these things in the past, he never hesitated, his heart was empty, and he never had this inexplicable feeling.

"How's it going?" Jiang Xihu took the lead in asking Li Jicai.

Li Jicai's expression was a little tired, and she shook her head lightly. The big and small injuries on her body continued, and when she didn't get better, she tossed blindly in the mountains for a few days, and it was good if she didn't toss her to death.

"What are you doing?" Li Jicai glanced at Jiang Xihu casually and asked in a calm tone.

Jiang Xihu inexplicably felt that what Li Jicai said seemed to have some deep meaning.

"Nothing." He said to Li Jicai, then looked at the two maids standing behind Li Jicai and said, "Don't you want to wait for the young lady to eat?" ”

Eating is not allowed in the carriage, this is a rule set by Jiang Xihu, he doesn't like to smell any strange smell after entering the carriage.

The two maids hurriedly stepped forward, and then prepared to pull Li Jicai to sit down next to him.

Miss? Poof, she was like a beggar when she came, and when she went back, she became a young lady.

This identity gap is inevitably too realistic.

"Your Excellency is really considerate." Li Jicai bit the word considerate very hard, and Jiang Xihu subconsciously touched his nose, a little uncomfortable.

In the end, one of the maids brought the food box, and Li Jicai ate quietly. Jiang Xihu picked up the pen again and wrote on the paper.

The team in full gear was on guard beside him, Li Jicai was concentrating on eating the food in the box, today's dishes were very rich, there were fish, meat and vegetables, and the taste was very light.

She didn't let the maid feed her, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Xihu is writing seriously, stopping from time to time to ponder.

The lush grass on both sides of the road swayed gently in the breeze, and the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious and quiet.

Li Jicai lowered her head to reveal the burn scar on her neck, which looked very obvious. After Jiang Xihu finished writing, he raised his head to look at her, and found the scar on Li Jicai's neck, which wrinkled slightly, and when he returned to the capital, he would find the imperial doctor to show her, he knew that he would have saved her earlier.

It wasn't good-looking in the first place, but with so many injuries on his body, it would be even more unsightly if he was made like this.

"By the way, didn't you say you still have to deal with the refugees who were affected by the drought? Is it just a matter of leaving it alone? Li Jicai suddenly thought of something, and suddenly raised his head and asked.

Jiang Xihu was staring at her in a trance, and suddenly met her eyes and couldn't help but subconsciously avoid it unnaturally.

"There are people who have been arranged to take care of them there, and those refugees have been properly resettled, but it is nothing more than a drought, and it is good to get through it." Jiang Xihu said nonchalantly, anyway, he is poor, there is no food to eat, as long as the money and food are in place, there will be no big problem.

But Li Jicai didn't think so, the drought since they left the capital and came here has never been effectively resolved, which makes people have to worry about the many problems they will face next.

Although Jiang Xihu didn't take it to heart, Li Jicai smelled danger.

"No, I can't go back just yet." Li Jicai suddenly got up and had a bold idea.

"What?" Jiang Xihu felt inexplicably surprised, how could he say that he would come, and if he didn't go back, he wouldn't go back? "Why don't you go back and stay here? Whether it is refugees or mountain bandits, I have already arranged for someone to deal with it, and I don't need your intervention. Perhaps worried that Li Jicai had other ideas, Jiang Xihu began to be a little vigilant.

Li Jicai didn't want to arouse Jiang Xihu's vigilance, and her eyes thought of a way to deal with it in an instant.

"You caught the local county order in Kuayi?"

"What's wrong with him?" Jiang Xihu didn't arrest the county order, or he didn't know why he wanted to arrest the county order.

"Don't you know that the reason why these mountain bandits are so arrogant and domineering on Cuiluo Mountain is because of the protection of the government? Why didn't that fat man punish him? ”

"......" Jiang Xihu just wanted to blame Li Jicai, why didn't he say when they were still there and waited until they left, didn't he say it was a little late now?

But in fact, she didn't blame her, they were in a hurry, Jiang Xihu didn't ask Li Jicai's opinion at all, and took her away.

Li Jicai's physical condition at that time was very poor, he couldn't lift his hands, and he was all set up, so he was not in a hurry to take her back to the capital for treatment.

But now, if he goes back, it will delay his time to return to Beijing to resume his life, so Jiang Xihu is hesitating to give another order.

"You let them take me back, after all, it's only been two days, and it's still too late to go back, as long as you give me authorization." Li Jicai began to ask Jiang Xihu for power in a bright and bright way.

Why can't you ask for it? Of course you can.

Jiang Xihu thought that she didn't know the identity of the fourth prince, but in fact, Li Jicai already knew. Is it difficult for him with such a small amount of power, not at all.

"Authorized?"

"That means leave the affairs of this place to me."
