"Master Pei, a member of the ministry, is the younger brother of Concubine Pei, who was once the person who was raised by Prince Heng's mother and concubine, and gave birth to a princess for the emperor."

Ming Lanying frowned and thought for a long time, but she didn't remember that she had heard that the emperor had a sister in the capital, "What about this Concubine Pei and the princess?" Why haven't I heard of it? ”

"After the princess died at an early age, Concubine Pei was accompanied by the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha and was not in the capital all the year round."

Ye Juelu's expression was vague, and Ming Lan Ying knew that the backyard of the deep palace was a place to eat children.

I heard that Prince Heng's mother was the favorite concubine of the former emperor back then, and the favorite concubine would be targeted by others, not to mention the people around the favorite concubine.

Concubine Pei has become a concubine, but I haven't heard that Prince Heng's mother has become a concubine, so she should be gone.

"No wonder that Hu Leqiang dares to do such a stupid thing to bully and suppress." Ming Lanying groped her chin and pondered, "Then Master Pei still has a sister?" ”

Ye Jielu knew everything about the court officials, and nodded when he heard the words, "There is a sister who is married far away." ”

"The sister who married far away? So how did he get in touch with Master Pei, who had lived in the capital for a long time? ”

Ming Lanying doesn't understand very well that the development of a big family is actually inseparable from anyone in the clan, regardless of the concubine, who is useful.

"Although it is a distant marriage, it does not mean that there is no contact, the Pei family has a Concubine Pei, and there is a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as long as there is no accident, the Pei family does not say that it is rich and expensive, but at least it can take root in the capital."

"No accident...... Ming Lanying then chuckled, "Isn't this just an accident?" Hu Leqiang has the support of Master Pei...... Oh no, it should be colluding with Lord Pei, wanting to do a big deal, without Lord Pei's instructions and helping them cover up, they can't do it, guess how much money they can get in three months? ”

Now all the local officials who can manage and speak in Fengzhou City have been locked up by him, and the mountain bandits in the government have been controlled, and the other mountain bandits outside the city should not have received the news, and he has temporarily taken over the entire Fengzhou City.

"Then ask the lady for a favor."

Ming Lanying snorted twice, "It's okay to help, the price is clearly marked." ”

Ye Jielu's eyebrows and eyes were soft, and his eyes kept following Ming Lanying, "Okay." ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the mountain bandits outside the city had not received the news, Ye Juelu's people hurried to find the real account book in the mansion, after all, there must be a record of how it came from, where it came from, and where it went.

The officials and officials of Fengzhou City could not use it, Ye Jielu could only use his own people, turned up and down, looked for an hour, and finally the wolf cub sniffed in the corner for a long time before finding it in the dark compartment of the study.

Ming Lanying was afraid that the mountain bandits outside the city would find out, so she hurried up to sort out the statistics, the accounts were clear and clear, and she just let the secret guard hand it to the emperor.

Ye Jielu also sent the seal to the emperor urgently with Xiao San, and asked the emperor to check on Lord Pei and Concubine Pei.

"Concubine Pei also checked?"

Ye Jielu nodded lightly, "It's better to misunderstand than to miss it." ”

Ming Lanying didn't say anything, but there was one thing she couldn't understand, "What are they trying to do?" Do you want to rebel like Prince Heng? ”

Ye Jielu was silent for a long time, "Not necessarily. ”

Concubine Pei used to be good with Prince Heng's mother, but now that Prince Heng's mother is gone, it is understandable that Concubine Pei takes more care of Prince Heng.

If it is said that it is said that it is to help Prince Heng rebel, the Pei family may not be able to do it, because of their lack of ability.

But if Prince Heng is fished out in the place where Prince Heng was exiled, it is still possible to protect him for the rest of his life.

After the end of the year, Prince Heng and his wives and concubines were all demoted to concubines, and they were already on the way to exile, exiled for three thousand miles, a little farther than Biansai, but they were also within the jurisdiction of Ye Juelu, and the emperor was also relieved.

Prince Heng was retracted from the royal family name and his single name was Nanli.

Ming Lanying quietly asked the name of the emperor - Nanzhao, Zhao is like the sun and the star, and Zhao Zhao is bright. Let him be as eye-catching as the sun and stars, and be able to see every detail, and have the clear vision of the king of a country.

The emperors did it.

Ming Lanying pondered for a while after knowing the names of the two brothers.

The winter sun is too far away, and there is no temperature, but today the sun is big, and the Ming Lan Ying was shaken, and at this moment suddenly understood some of the emperor's grandfather's intentions.

"Nanli is not destined to become the emperor, the gentleman is the six arts, Li is the first, Emperor Chongshun Shizong never thought of making him an emperor, but even wanted him to assist the emperor."

Prince Heng is now a commoner, with no identity and no surname, so he can only be called by his first name.

Hearing this, Ye Jielu turned his head sideways and wanted to look at her, "I thought about this truth with the emperor for twenty years before I figured it out. ”

Ming Lanying was surprised, but after thinking about it, she is a person who has experienced two worlds, and she can guess this truth because of the inheritance and accumulation of thousands of years of history and culture in the previous life and technology, so that ordinary people can broaden their horizons and enrich their knowledge.

She didn't feel proud, she only felt fortunate that the thousand-year-old historical civilization had not disappeared in the long river of time.

"By the way, where will they be exiled?"

"Sideplug a little bit past, in the state and county next door to us."

"Oh, it's close! You're in charge? ”

"Hmm."

Since it is to go to a more remote and desolate place in Biansai, it should also pass through this road.

Their path of exile was not escorted by ordinary officials, but by a small group of the Praetorian Guards, some of whom passed near Fengzhou City.

It's hard to say whether Lord Pei got the signal of his sister Concubine Pei, but Lord Pei let Hu Leqiang use his identity to bully and suppress Fengzhou City, and even colluded with the mountain bandits, which is at least really ill-intentioned.

As soon as Ye Jielu and Ming Lanying analyzed, Ming Lanying suddenly realized, "He wants to use the mountain bandits to create chaos, and then take advantage of the chaos to take Prince Heng away!" ”

Ye Jielu's face was serious, "I don't rule out this possibility, the emperor already knows about Fengzhou City, and sent 100,000 troops to forcibly take over, I have asked the emperor to secretly investigate Lord Pei and Concubine Pei, and we can leave when the new officials are in place." ”

Ming Lanying counted the time, and their group traveled for half a month, and it should take more than ten days for 100,000 troops to travel day and night, and they will temporarily manage Fengzhou City in these more than ten days.

"What about the mountain bandits outside the city?"

Ye Jielu had asked the secret guards to find out the location and number of bandits first, and he had an arrangement in his heart.

"These mountain bandits are very smart, one left and one right occupy both sides of a road, not far away, one side can quickly kill the other side if something happens, the number of people on both sides is about 8,000."

"So many people?!"

Ming Lanying was shocked, now is not a troubled time, not to mention that the emperors of this country are all Ming Jun, who has carefully guarded the country for a hundred years, and there has never been a time when the people are not happy.

She doesn't understand why Guotai Min'an still has people to be mountain bandits!

"Why should they be bandits? Can't live anymore? ”

Ye Jielu said slowly: "Some people are for revenge, the world is so big, it is impossible for the emperor to take care of not having a single person, there are many officials, there will always be corrupt officials and corrupt officials who are vegetarian and vegetarian in the corpse are mixed in, they can't get the justice they deserve, and they are disappointed to the extreme, it is better to be a mountain bandit to take revenge." ”

Ming Lanying sighed silently, no matter what era it is, it is impossible to have an absolutely harmonious, friendly and bright society.

Some people live in the sunshine and look forward to the betterment of the world, while others struggle in the mud, waiting for a ray of hope to save them.

"Sixteen thousand...... It's quite a lot. ”

Ye Jielu patted her back soothingly, and said in a low voice: "Some people take revenge for the fairness they can't get, some people can't survive and have to join, and some people are evil by nature...... They all have their own reasons and last resorts, but it does not affect us to arrest them, and everyone is taking the path they have chosen. ”

Ming Lanying smiled, "I know. ”

Firm in your heart, unswervingly follow your own path, everyone has their own way of living.

Xiao San flew fast, and the letter was delivered in two days, and the emperor immediately wrote a reply after reading it, and happily boasted of his foresight in the letter, raised Hai Dongqing, and gave them one.

Ye Jielu shook his head helplessly after receiving the letter, if the emperor didn't become the emperor, he should be taking the queen around now.

Ming Lanying also felt that it should be like this, "It's a pity that his other brothers are not as good as him." ”

Ye Jielu grew up with the emperor and was most familiar with the emperor, "The first emperor did not have many heirs, many of them died young, and the emperor was able to grow up safely because he was the first to stay away from the center of the battle." ”

The backyard of the deep palace is a place to eat children, and even if the emperor was the first to stay away from the center when he was a child, he also had a hard time.

Later, the Ye family was gone, and Ye Juelu was the only child of the Ye family who survived, if it weren't for Ye Juelu's early companion as the prince's companion, the emperor didn't know if he could be a loving and righteous monarch like now.

Waiting for the emperor's reply in two days, the mountain bandits also sensed that something was wrong in the city, and none of the teams sent out came back every time.

The three masters did not believe in evil, and took a group of people to inquire about the news, but found that the officials of Fengzhou City seemed to be gone.

The people who robbed a street did not see the previous brothers, and they felt bad, and they just wanted to turn around and go back, but they were stopped by a group of people dressed as guards, led by a handsome little girl.

"What people! Dare to stop the way of the officials and grandfathers! ”

Hebai snorted, "It's just a beast in human skin, and you dare to call yourself an official!" ”

Shan Zhao grinned, the dazzling white teeth and the pear vortex at the corner of his mouth were eye-catching, reckless, "What nonsense are you talking about with them!" The prince said, all these bottomless beasts were killed, and no one was left! ”

The three masters led by him didn't react to any prince, and Hebai and Shan Zhao killed each other with a sword and a shot.

The three masters were surprised, he had a hundred people! There are only about twenty people on their side, how dare they!

Although there are not many of them, they can still fight a group of rabble.

Now is not a troubled time, the mountain bandits are not so professional, and fighting and killing people are all based on the courage of a passionate heart, but Hebai and Shan Zhao are both fighting on the battlefield, and it is more than enough to deal with the mountain bandits.

A hundred people were only half an hour, none of the mountain bandits escaped, and none of them were broken, at most they were all injured.

Crane Bai grinned and looked at the wound on his arm, the wound was not long, but it was deep, and the painful Crane Bai's expression was distorted.

"Damn! I made such a big cut for my aunt and grandmother! ”

Shan Zhao shook the spear in his hand, and immediately turned around and strode over when he heard the words, faintly anxious, but he still had to make a cheap mistake.

"Yo! Isn't this our world's number one and most capable Aunt Crane Bai? Why did you hurt your arm? Oh, this deep bone, does it hurt? Hey, I didn't expect that! I'm fine! I don't even have a corner of my clothes torn, hehe! ”

Crane Bai was angry, and immediately raised his hand and swiped the fabric on his chest with his intact hand.

Shan Zhao was slashed with a sword as soon as he got closer, and subconsciously dodged back, his underwear was torn, and a little white chest was vaguely exposed, but it didn't hurt the skin inside.

Shan Zhao gasped, "Wow, you can't see me, you!" Your clothes are torn for you, it's cold! ”

Hebai endured the pain in his arm and rolled his eyes, "Now the clothes are torn!" ”

Shan Zhao snorted, rushed up with a stabbing step, grabbed her arm, and took out a packet of medicinal powder from the hidden pocket of his belt, "Be careful, don't move, the wound will crack again later, and the princess will worry about you again." ”

Hebai doesn't have the habit of taking medicine, and now he can only endure letting him take medicine first.

The corpses of the bandits lay on the streets, and the guards simply cleaned up the wounds, dragged a few ox carts, and threw the corpses on the ox carts and sent them back to the foot of the mountain bandits.

Shan Zhao bandaged Hebai's arm, and the group went home.

Ming Lanying was listening to Ning Er's endorsement when she saw the two people rushing back, one with a torn chest and a bandage on his arm.

"Hurt?"

Shan Zhao shook his head, "She was slashed and her bones are visible, I was scratched by her, I didn't even have a corner of my clothes, she was jealous that I was stronger than her, and I slashed my clothes while I wasn't paying attention, I'll go change my clothes first, princess, you teach her a lesson!" ”

Ming Lanying looked at Hebai with a smile, "Look at your careful eyes, people still give you ancestral medicinal powder." ”

Hebai muttered: "He always has to be cheap, he was unhappy when he was stabbed, and he laughed at me!" I just cut his clothes, I didn't really cut him! ”

Ming Lanying directly raised her hand and flicked her head, "I still want to cut him!" You are your own people, and the sword cannot be directed towards your own people, and I still want a layman to teach you this truth? ”

"Got it, got it!"

Ning Er hurriedly went to find the medicine given by Imperial Doctor Zhao, and now that Hebai's wound was not painful, he didn't care about waving his hand.

"There are too many of them, and they were beaten without paying attention for a while, sister-in-law~ I am in pain, I want sauce elbow bibimbap!"

Ming Lanying rolled her eyes, "Can the pain still shake?" Loaded, right? ”

Hebai shook again, "Huh? Don't feel any pain? What kind of medicine powder did I go to, it works better than the hemostatic powder last time! ”

Ming Lanying couldn't stand this heartless eye and kept shaking her injured arm, "Okay, okay, if you shake it again, it will collapse, and then you will have to sew up the wound, it will hurt you to death!" ”

Hebai immediately became honest, "Sister-in-law, I'm very good today, two swords and one sword!" One cut and one accurate! Reward reward for the injured me! ”

"There is no sauce elbow, only bacon and rice."

"Good! I want more bacon! ”

In winter, some bacon will be stored, which can be eaten for a long time, and the bacon made by Ming Lanying is a little more fragrant, and she often makes bacon claypot rice along the way, because it is convenient.
