"Not bad!"

Lin Yiqiu opened his mouth without hesitation and said.

For a while, Xia Ningshuang's face changed in an instant.

She said with some annoyance.

"The imperial court is already short of money and food, and it is really hateful that these corrupt officials and corrupt officials in these places still don't want to make progress and dare to do such a thing!"

"yes!"

Lin Yiqiu sighed, and at this moment, he suddenly noticed that in the wheat field in the distance, a cold sky shot towards this side, and in an instant, Lin Yiqiu's face changed greatly, and then he shouted.

"There are assassins!"

With that, he suddenly threw Xia Ningshuang into the carriage between the lightning and flint.

At this moment, a crisp bang was heard.

I saw only that, from the position of the car window.

A sharp sword was nailed to the wooden board of the carriage, and the hilt of the sword was still trembling slightly, looking at Lin Yiqiu, who threw Xia Ningshuang under him, he couldn't help but gasp and sighed.

"Fortunately, I didn't hurt you, the eldest princess......"

"Lin Yiqiu, your hand!"

Just as Lin Yiqiu was sighing here.

Xia Ningshuang screamed, blushed, stretched out her arms, and slapped Lin Yiqiu's body, subconsciously, Lin Yiqiu looked down, and in an instant, he noticed that he was falling on Xia Ningshuang.

"Still not up?"

Feeling soft body, I didn't notice it before, and at this time, Lin Yiqiu couldn't help but be uncontrollable.

Just as he was about to get up, suddenly, in the wheat field in the distance, a woman dressed in white and covered with a veil suddenly jumped out of it, moving quickly and showing contempt, and arrived at the front of the carriage, the nearby Xichang Fanzi, and the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army.

hurriedly blocked.

And Lin Yiqiu also hurriedly pressed Xia Ningshuang, who was about to get up, into the carriage and protected him under him.

Of course, he unconsciously took advantage of Xia Ningshuang.

At this time, perhaps the sneak attack was unsuccessful, the white-clothed masked assassin was a move, and at a very fast speed, he evacuated into the distance with light skills, the speed was fast, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the dense forest in the distance, looking at Lin Yiqiu, he couldn't help but gasp.

"This person is very good, and his martial arts cultivation is not under me!"

"You, you get up for me!"

The assassin left, but at this time, Xia Ningshuang shouted.

Lin Yiqiu noticed that it turned out that in the panic just now, he was actually pressed on Xia Ningshuang's body, and at this time, looking at his body, due to his hasty movements, his clothes were a little messy.

And this undoubtedly made Xia Ningshuang a little confused.

"Uh......"

Lin Yiqiu was embarrassed for a while.

said that there was a life crisis, but I saw him get up quickly, and then explained calmly.

"It's not anything, it's just something I carry with me......"

"Oh!"

Xia Ningshuang didn't continue to ask, but said to Lin Yiqiu.

"Why didn't you just go after the Assassin?"

"The assassin's martial arts are not below me, and the light skills are quite good, if I go after him, in case she has any other comrades, in case, she kills another horse pistol, the princess's safety, what should I do?"

Lin Yiqiu replied seriously.

Xia Ningshuang pondered, this is really the truth.

couldn't help but praise Lin Yiqiu.

"Yiqiu, you still know a lot, it seems that this princess still has to learn from you!"

"Haha, don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

Lin Yiqiu replied embarrassedly, and then said to the people in the West Factory outside the carriage, as well as the Imperial Forest Army.

"Keep going, be careful along the way, send a few more cavalry, and probe around!"

"Yes!"

The subordinates on the side did not dare to slack off.

The eldest princess was assassinated, in fact, each of them was extremely scared in their hearts.

Because, once the eldest princess has an accident, then, needless to say, the few of them will definitely be all in danger.

Not only that, but even their family members may be punished.

In such a situation.

Each of them, at this time, was in good spirits, carefully searching for all suspicious traces on the side of the road, and just like that, Lin Yiqiu was able to easily enter the west city.

West Side.

When entering the West Side.

Lin Yiqiu suddenly discovered.

Xicheng is exceptionally prosperous.

There was no slightest, the appearance of being affected by the drought, which undoubtedly deepened the suspicion in Lin Yiqiu's heart, and after entering Xicheng, they went straight to the City Lord's Mansion in Xicheng.

In terms of the system of the Great Qian's empire, it is obviously much more backward than Lin Yiqiu's time and space.

In the Great Qian Empire.

In fact, many places still adopt the feudal system, and there is a city lord in the city, which is a hereditary position, and only needs to pay a certain amount of taxes to the court every year, and Xicheng is such a small city.

However, this small town.

Now he dares to deliberately report disasters every year.

Not only did he not pay taxes to the court, but he defrauded the court of money and grain.

This is undoubtedly unacceptable.

At this time, Lin Yiqiu and the others went straight to the Xicheng City Lord's Mansion.

When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

With the arrival of the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, inside the castle lord's mansion.

City Lord Zhu Jianhai walked out with a smile, and then said in welcome.

"The eldest princess has arrived, up and down Xicheng, everyone is welcome, the lord of Xicheng, Zhu Jianhai, has seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

"We've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

For a while, the subordinates of the Xicheng City Lord, as well as the soldiers, all shouted.

"Excuse me!"

Xia Ningshuang was quite calm, at this time, she had already changed into clothes, and before arriving at the city lord's mansion, she sorted out her makeup, at this time, she was only heard and said to Zhu Jianhai, the city lord of Xicheng.

"This palace is asking you now, has Xicheng suffered a disaster this year?"

"This ......"

For a while, the face of the city lord of Xicheng suddenly changed.

He stiffened his head and replied.

"Returning to the eldest son, it is indeed a disaster!"

"Then why, after the disaster, in the wheat fields up and down Xicheng, the wheat grows gratifyingly, and it looks like a bumper harvest?"

Lin Yiqiu asked with a sneer.

For a while, Zhu Jianhai, the city lord of Xicheng, suddenly changed his face.

Well, that's a question that's not so easy to answer.

Because, in fact, he also knew that Xicheng had not suffered from the famine at all.

Except for the reported famine in the first year, Xicheng has been smooth for so many years.

However, this matter must not be leaked.

Once leaked.

The latter will be extremely serious.
