Chapter 243 The Third Year of Mingxi
Niu Jiuhua did not dare to take Xu Shuangnian into the city, nor did he dare to go to the larger towns, so he could only take the mountain road.
Thanks to Niu Tianhu, Niu Tianhu packed a big baggage for Niu Jiuhua, including clothes, medicines, silver and dry food. He prepared it with great care, so that Niu Jiuhua did not have to worry about how to fill his stomach, which was the most difficult thing. It's just that they have to sleep in a cave at night, but this is no problem for Niu Jiuhua, who grew up in the mountains.
On the contrary, Xu Shuangnian, the county magistrate, has never experienced such hardship. He was tied up all the way and only had one or two mouthfuls to eat and drink. He went to relieve himself and had to be stared at by a girl. It was really annoying. He died.
At noon the next day, they went around Yuancheng. Niu Tianhu’s original intention was to let Niu Jiuhua come to this city which was far away from Kunyu County but not very far away. Niu Jiuhua gave up and didn’t expect to go around in a roundabout way. It happened anyway, it was fate.
Niu Jiuhua tied Xu Shuangnian to the mountain and rode into the city to find out.
The only household registration document Niu Tianhu got for his daughter was of course genuine, allowing her to enter the city easily.
The moment they entered the city, Niu Jiuhua cried.
"Senior sister, I miss my dad."
They are bandits and can't even go into the city to buy things, but her dad got her a real identity certificate.
This cannot be accomplished in a day or two. He must have been planning for this for a long time and had already thought out a way out for her.
I don’t want my daughter to be a bandit all her life, and I don’t want my daughter to be in danger.
It seemed like he didn’t say anything, but he was full of fatherly love.
The appearance of King Wei is not a trivial matter. After spending some money, I found out that King Wei will come to Yuancheng in two days.
Niu Jiuhua’s face froze: “Senior sister, we are not really going to see the King of Wei, are we?”
The bandits kidnapped the county magistrate and went to see the prince. Will the prince help the bandits? It sounds ridiculous.
Xiao Li: "You can kill Xu Shuangnian now."
"What?"
Niu Jiuhua was in disbelief: "Senior, what are you talking about?"< br>
Xiao Li's voice was cold: "Xu Shuangnian is dead, the magistrate of Kunyu County has been replaced, and Tianhu Village will not be attacked for the time being. Isn't this the result you want?"
Niu Jiuhua was silent.
Xiao Li: "Can't you do it anymore?"
Niu Jiuhua was silent again and acquiesced.
Xiao Li only found it funny: "Then what do you want to do? If Xu Shuangnian is alive, Xu Nianqing will attack Tianhu Village again. By then, what should you do?"
Niu Jiuhua With a solemn expression: "Then why did my senior sister ask me to find King Wei? Or is it actually you who is really looking for King Wei?"
Xiao Li: It’s really smart at this time.
“There is no conflict between kidnapping the county magistrate to solve the siege of Tianhu Village and asking the King of Wei, but killing Xu Shuangnian is simpler than asking the King of Wei for help, and there will be no future trouble.”
Niu Jiuhua: "That's the county magistrate."
Xiao Li I couldn't help but taunted: "He is the county magistrate, so he wants to kill everyone in Tianhu Village to establish meritorious deeds, and you are a bandit. If you want to live, you have to kill him."
The weak eats the strong. Sometimes I can't figure out my position, that is, I am seeking death.
She made the truth clear enough. If you don't understand it, then it won't be unfair to die.
"Senior sister, senior"
Niu Jiuhua called Xiao Li several times, but Xiao Li never called her back.
Niu Jiuhua left Yuancheng, Xiao Li did not follow her this time.
Xiao Li can borrow Niu Jiuhua's handwritten letter to Wei Wang Xiao Jingyi to ask him to intervene in this matter. But she had to expose her current weird state.
How should she explain to Jamel Xiao? If she returns to her body, how should she face Jamel Xiao.
Is it a human or a ghost?
Xu Shuangnian first wanted to kill the bandit and perform meritorious service, so Niu Jiuhua killed him to protect Tianhu Village. This was their cause and effect, and there was no problem with whoever died.
But just because Niu Jiuhua didn't dare to kill Xu Shuangnian, she had to expose herself to protect Tianhu Village.
It would be foolish to sacrifice yourself to achieve the perfect ending that others want.
Xiao Li landed on the highest roof of Yuan City, the moonlight fell on her, and a golden light spot emitted a soft light.
Yuancheng is a large city and is relatively well-informed.
It is now the third year of Mingxi.
Mingxi is the reign name chosen by Song Junzhan and others. Originally, the word Xuanyang could have continued to be used, but they felt that the word Xuanyang was not good. Xuan means black and Yang means light.
The empress ascended the throne and ushered in a new dynasty. How could she be a black sun?
So it was changed to Mingxi, which means bright and prosperous.
The year is counted from the time he ascended the throne. The time of Xiao Li's accident was when the New Year was about to begin in the year he ascended the throne. It is now the spring of the third year. In other words, there was more than a year in between.
In the past year or so, many major events that are well-known to the world have happened. For example, Emperor Murong Yu of the Yue Kingdom fled back to the Yue Kingdom to lead a rebellion, and actually captured five cities and reestablished the Yue Kingdom.
For example, the Cang Kingdom sent troops to Longsheng, but what they robbed was the city that once belonged to the Yue Kingdom.
Not only Beicang, but also Yundan, Baidi and Xiqi sent troops to test the situation several times. There were also three groups of rebels in Longsheng who wanted to attack the empress and divide the country equally.
The world seems to be unstable, but in fact it is really in chaos.
There are also rumors that the empress has actually been assassinated. Prime Minister Song Junzhan did not announce the funeral secretly in order to monopolize power and steal the country.
It is also said that the empress rebelled against Tiangang and cut off the dragon line of the Xiao family, so the princes from all sides rose up to attack her and bring order to the chaos.
But they want to cut it down, but they dare not.
The empress has not shown up for a long time, maybe she is really in trouble, but her close ministers are still united together.
Civil ministers used all their abilities to manage all the cities they could control, generals trained diligently, and the army was terrifyingly powerful.
The civil servants and military generals are in unprecedented harmony. Even without the emperor, the court is still running steadily, and is even developing in a stronger direction.
The people don’t have to pay taxes, every household has a surplus of food, and the benefits of being a soldier are very good, and all the men in the family want to be soldiers.
Especially the silver armored army, with armor, steel knives, war horses, and big weapons.
The people are rich, the army is strong, the court is strong, and there are many generals.
The princes wanted to attack, but none of them wanted to be the first to die.
The reason why they can still clamor now is that the DPRK has not sent anyone to suppress it.
Xiao Li was not surprised when he heard this situation.
Not to mention she is an empress. Even if a man gets the throne, there will definitely be some who are unconvinced and want to rebel. The throne is the highest temptation for human power.
The dispute will not stop because of who becomes the emperor, it is just an exchange of offense and defense.
She is not afraid of others coming to snatch her, and at the same time, she also anticipates that she will suddenly have an accident or leave, so she delegates power, only keeping the core in her hands, and delegates the management power to others.
Her departure will not cause the country to collapse, and as long as she does not die for a day, even if she is just lying there as a living dead, the structure of the court will not collapse.
The court seemed to ignore these princes, but she knew that they were just waiting for the opportunity. When the opportunity came, it would be their death.
