Chapter Ninety-Three: The Weight of the Crown (I)
"Well, go up. "www.biquge.info The head of the snake shook the bag in his hand, a total of twenty gold coins, it seems that this time a fat sheep came.
"Two days. The black-veiled woman held out two fingers.
"Rest assured, our ship is fast enough. The head of the snake said with a smile that was more ugly than crying.
The black-gaugled woman didn't talk nonsense either, and she squeezed into the small boat, which was not spacious. Although the boat was not large, it was crowded with more than thirty people, many of whom had only a small seat, and they did not even have a place to sleep. The woman with the black veil masked is different, because she bids high enough, so she has a bed that can sleep.
In the darkness of the night, a pair of hands reached out to the sleeping woman, and the target of the owner of the hands was the money bag of the black-veiled woman.
"Ah, my hands, my hands!" cried out a sloppy man, his right hand bubbling with blood.
The black-gauzed woman looked coldly at the man who was wailing, and it was she who had unceremoniously cut off the man's index finger just now. The passengers on the ship all watched coldly, and they could see much more things about people with 'unclean' hands and feet kicking the iron plate, until the wail of the man with severed fingers attracted the little brother of the snake head, and finally the matter was finally settled under the mediation of the snake head.
For the next two days, the black-veiled woman slept soundly, and her strength allowed some people with ulterior motives to temporarily suppress the greed in their hearts.
Two days later, the snakehead's ship docked as scheduled, and it seemed that this time Juana had won the bet.
But just as Juana won the bet on speed, she also gambled on the danger for herself, and not long after the palace of the princess landed, she ran into a little 'little trouble'. As for how this trouble happened to come to the door, of course, it was the smugglers who colluded with those 'troubles'.
"Chick. Obediently hand over the gold coins in your hand, if the masters are in a good mood, maybe they can let you go. A scar-faced man stared at the black-robed woman in a daze, and Juana had been targeted by a gang of robbers less than an hour after she landed. The reason why Juana is so 'unlucky' is because she is too generous, and when the bag of gold coins is sold, the snakehead has already set his eyes on Juana, and it is inconvenient for them to do it when they are on the boat, so as not to smash their signboard, but when they get to the shore, then it is up to the snakehead to do what he wants.
"Don't talk nonsense, give her a good time. The bandit leader looked at the black-robed woman in front of him, although he would feel a little pity when he looked at the graceful curves hidden under the black-robed bandit leader, but now was not the time for them to vent, the nearby cavalry patrols were becoming more and more frequent, and they had to move quickly.
Facing a group of thieves of more than a dozen people, Juana did not panic, she carefully observed the positions of these people, although it may be a little difficult, but she is confident that she will defeat them all. ’
"Big brother, it's a patrol!" a robber who had been sent to keep an eye on him hurriedly arrived.
"Quick, kill her, let's go!" The bandit leader was a little anxious, it seemed that he could only open this one today, and he cursed the kingdom's patrol in his heart.
Juana was cornered by several robbers, and she was half-crouched under a tree. Juana deliberately pretended to be 'cowardly', while she was silently chanting a mantra in her mouth.
The robbers laughed strangely, and in their eyes the weak black-robed woman was a lamb to be cut, but before they could finish laughing, the robbers found that they could no longer laugh.
A group of cavalry came from behind, and the robbers who surrounded Juana were the first to have their heads cut off, while the robbers who were a little farther away saw that the situation was not good and wanted to flee but ran away, and they were caught up one after another, and then these robbers became the 'trophies' of these cavalry.
"Thank you for saving me. Juana took off her veil, and she thanked the cavalry again.
I have to say that this group of cavalry appeared in a really timely manner, and Juana was really ready to fight hard. Fortunately, these cavalrymen easily exterminated this group of thieves, otherwise once Juana was injured, it would be too much time, and Her Royal Highness is most lacking time now.
"Girl, you're free. The cavalry nodded to Juana, they were soldiers of the kingdom, and that was the right thing to do.
"Excuse me, can you take me to the nearest village?" Juana's big eyes seemed to be able to speak, and she deliberately put on a pitiful look in front of the cavalry.
"Of course, beautiful young lady. "The leader of the cavalry agreed to Juana's request, and there was no reason for them to abandon such a 'weak maiden' on the side of the road.
"My lord, these are the eight captives captured. Several cavalrymen formed a circle around the remaining robbers.
"Kill them all. "The commander of the cavalry put on his helmet, and he was not interested in looking at the robbers again, for there were countless more 'lives' like this to come.
Juana glanced at the cavalry commander with some surprise, for she had the impression that the execution of the thieves required at least a public trial. But from another point of view, the kingdom is in turmoil, and extraordinary laws are practiced at extraordinary times, and the actions of these people are understandable, if it were themselves, I am afraid that they would give the same order as their brother.
Soon under the escort of the cavalry, Juana arrived safely in the nearest town, and Juana immediately changed her costume and boarded a carriage, and it only took half a day, and she could reach the royal capital in half a day.
Just in the carriage after the 'makeup' Juana was worried, she was very confident in herself after the disguise, but she was not 100% sure of passing the inspection, but the guards at the city gate only chose to let go after a simple inspection, so easy to enter the royal capital, which Juana really didn't expect.
Maybe my brother didn't expect him to be so bold. Juana laughed a little self-deprecatingly, yes, she was no longer the 'cowardly' 'little girl'.
Then Juana first found a very ordinary hotel in the city, and she changed into a very ordinary dress, and in just one day, Juana had changed three sets of clothes.
It was already dark, and Juana ate a few bites in the room, although the wine and food in the hotel were not as good as those in the palace, but it was really a different flavor, but Juana only ate a few bites and she couldn't eat anymore.
Juana is interspersed in the streets, her face is always covered with a black veil, and his brother may not have imagined that his sister would dare to 'send it to the door' himself.
