Chapter 9

81-90

Wild Little Orchid, the cold-hearted prince was the first to fall in love

Chapter 81 Entering the City

Little white dragon on the river.

Lu Jiuwan hasn't enjoyed modern technology for a long time.

Cool!

Cold!

It's autumn now, and the cold wind is blowing while speeding on the river.

Going down the river.

Speeding for half an hour.

The river is getting bigger and bigger.

Fishing boats can be seen in the distance, and there are houses on both sides.

In order not to scare the ancient people.

Lu Jiuwan approached the shore and went ashore, and put the motorboat back into the space.

The trees on both sides are lush, red, yellow, green... and gradient.

Reflecting the light green river water, it is colorful.

Autumn is coming in a lively way.

A gust of wind swept by.

A leaf fell obliquely and landed on the river.

Lu Jiuwan stood on the river bank and admired it for a long time.

One hand took pictures, and the other hand ate an apple.

Hungry from yesterday to today.

Just too hungry.

Just now she remembered to eat something.

After looking through the dazzling array of food in the space, she chose apples.

Apples are juicy and full, and there is no need to consider the problem of throwing away garbage.

After a few bites, it is crispy and sweet.

Apples are delicious.

She no longer thinks that apples are unpalatable.

Use the apple core to make a beautiful water splash.

This small river is super suitable for fishing.

Quiet, beautiful, and spacious.

Lu Jiuwan turned and entered the woods, stepping on the fallen leaves, which were dry on top and wet on the bottom, soft as shit.

The little birds chirped and flew around on the branches.

Lu Jiuwan looked up and looked around as he walked.

After leaving the woods, he entered someone else's village, a large and bright village next to the river bank.

In the afternoon, there seemed to be few people in the village. There were girls coming back with firewood on their backs, men coming back with fodder, people getting on and off fishing boats, women going out with baskets on their shoulders... and busy figures in the yards of each house.

No one noticed a young and beautiful woman who had just walked out of the woods.

In a house on the side of Lujiuwan Road, a middle-aged couple was putting wooden barrels on a cart in the yard, carefully, and there was a sound of water when it was swinging.

The woman helped her husband tie the rope and urged, "Husband, hurry up, we have to leave the city before dark, otherwise it will be a waste of money to live in the city."

The man was swift and skillful, "Okay. Have you taken our pass? Don't forget it, it will be too late to come back again."

The woman: "I took it a long time ago, let's go, let's go to the city to deliver fish."

The man pulled in front, and the woman pushed and controlled in the back.

After leaving the yard, he pulled the gate over and closed it.

Looking at the two children in the yard.

"Tong'er, keep an eye on your brother and don't go out. Mother will buy you some candied haws when she comes back."

The five or six-year-old girl put her hands on the shoulders of her three or four-year-old brother and looked at her parents eagerly.

Hearing this, her eyes sparkled, "Tong'er, be obedient."

The boy also laughed and shouted, "Mom, Song'er wants one too."

"Just listen to your sister and you'll get one." The woman smiled, followed her husband, and shouted to the neighbor's house, "Mom, sister-in-law, my husband and I are going to the city to deliver goods. Please help me look after the children."

An old woman came out and responded, "Go ahead."

Lu Jiuwan walked over and glanced at the yard. The two children looked at her timidly and unfamiliarly.

Going into the city?

She followed the couple.

It was just right that she didn't need to ask for directions.

We have to hurry back before dark, and I think this place is not far from the city.

After walking for a while.

In front, the woman tilted her head slightly from time to time and looked back with her peripheral vision.

Her face was a little nervous.

"Husband, there is a girl following us behind us. Do you think she could be some kind of..." fairy?

No, could she be a bad person?

No, what can a woman do to them?

Tsk, it's strange anyway, it's not right.

The man in front didn't even turn his head, "Oh, she's coming into the city."

"She passed by our door and now she's following us again."

The man finally stopped, "Then let's rest for a while and wait for her to leave first."

He parked the cart on the side of the road.

The couple was too embarrassed to look directly at the person behind them, and pretended to rest.

The woman raised her sleeves to wipe her forehead, and used her sleeves to cover her forehead to glance at Lu Jiuwan with her peripheral vision.

But he met her eyes.

Woman:...

She turned her head awkwardly, "Husband, you are sweating all over, let me wipe it for you."

Man:... Where did the sweat come from?

"My wife, you have worked hard."

Lu Jiuwan tilted her head to look at the two people who were busy, and walked past them without stopping.

The couple gritted their teeth and waited for Lu Jiuwan to pass by. They looked at each other awkwardly.

"I said she was in a hurry."

"Husband, you are blind, the girl's clothes are messy, and there is a wound on her neck."

The man didn't look at it at all. How can a man stare at other women on the street? That is what hooligans do.

"She came out of our village. Could she be... the daughter of the great Li family?"

"Ah?" The woman lowered her voice. "Didn't they say she was kidnapped by bandits?"

"Yes, our back mountain is not far from the bandits' hilltop. Maybe she escaped from there."

"Then, what should we do now, husband?"

"What can we do? Pretend that we didn't see it. Bandits are fierce and have killed people like flies. The government can't do anything about them."

The woman felt sorry. What kind of world is this?

A good woman was forcibly taken to the mountain. How can she live like this?

Alas... The woman raised her head and noticed a line of sight.

Lu Jiuwan stood at the fork in the road ahead.

Looking at the two people.

Hurry up, why are you taking a break? It will be dark if you take another break.

Woman: ...

"Go, go, go, if you take another break it will be dark and you won't be able to come back." The man couldn't wait any longer.

The woman hesitated, "Husband, the girl is still waiting for us in front."

"No matter, the child is still waiting for us at home."

The woman got up and pushed the cart forward.

She walked to Lu Jiuwan and passed by with her head down.

Lu Jiuwan followed them not far away.

She followed the two people all the way to the city gate. The village was indeed not far from the city. It took less than an hour to walk there.

In the afternoon.

Jiangcheng.

The city gate.

There were few people entering the city, so there was no need to queue.

There were many people leaving the city. From a distance, there was a long queue inside.

Lu Jiuwan followed the couple and saw them take out two pieces of paper, showed them to the gatekeeper, and then let them in.

When they went in, she followed them closely.

The officers and soldiers had clear eyes and said, "Pass through."

Lu Jiuwan: "Yes."

The officers and soldiers: "...Pass through."

Lu Jiuwan said firmly: "Pass through."

The officers and soldiers looked at her angrily and looked her up and down.

She looked like a fairy, and she looked like a wealthy lady who was running for her life.

"Where are you from? What are you doing in the city?"

Lu Jiuwan thought for a second, "With them."

The officers and soldiers turned their heads and looked at the couple who had already walked a long way.

"If you lie again, I'll arrest you. You won't be allowed in without the pass. Don't you know that the inspection is strict now?"

Lu Jiuwan turned around and left.

Her eyebrows frowned.

The pass?

She thought about it carefully. It seemed that she had never used this thing before.

Do you still need this thing to enter the city?

Maybe she didn't need it when she was a killer before, and she didn't need it after she became a princess.

Lu Jiuwan bypassed the city gate, observed it, and climbed over the wall to enter.

Chapter 82 Lu, Xiaolan

Dijiang leaned over his horse, like a cheetah, steady and strong, wild and dangerous.

His heroic and deep eyes looked ahead, looking around.

He had expectations.

However, as he got closer, his deep eyes gradually dimmed.

The faint hope was completely extinguished.

Lu Jiuwan, a woman without conscience and without any feelings.

He felt a sour and bloated feeling in his heart.

He was angry and furious.

The city gate had long been heavily guarded by his men. There was no civilian except for the soldiers.

Dijiang rode his horse all the way into the city.

The streets were wider than ever before, because there was no one on the street.

It was silent and quiet, like an empty city.

Inside the hall.

Everyone was so nervous that they were exhausted. Some people sat on the ground without any image.

There was no sound.

Liang Huai's body was still there, and no one took it.

Everyone stayed away from that corner.

Heavy and hard footsteps sounded.

Everyone was refreshed.

Their hearts were pounding.

People on the ground stood up in a hurry, and everyone stood in their original positions tacitly.

Those who were closer to Liang Huai were unlucky and afraid, but they had to stand, and slightly retracted one foot to show respect.

Everyone looked at the door at the same time.

Di Jiang stepped in slowly, calmly and confidently, majestic and domineering, the true nature of an emperor.

He walked straight to the dragon chair on the high platform.

Everyone watched him go, but no one dared to make a sound of opposition.

Seeing Emperor Jiang come on stage, Eunuch Ming on the side of the stage stepped forward quickly.

Emperor Jiang glanced at him and handed him the edict, "Read it."

"Yes."

Eunuch Ming cleared his throat, straightened his posture, and solemnly read the imperial edict again in his loudest voice.

After finishing, he said another sentence, "In accordance with the edict, from now on, Emperor Jiang, the twelfth son of the emperor, will officially succeed to the throne. Long live the emperor."

"Long live the emperor." The loud and orderly voice echoed throughout the hall.

Emperor Jiang slowly sat on the dragon chair and looked at his ministers.

His eyes were calm, but he was majestic without being angry.

Although he was not wearing a dragon robe, the emperor's majesty was still fully revealed.

...

Jiangcheng was bustling and prosperous.

He had no idea that the situation in Nanjin City had changed dramatically.

Lu Jiuwan walked among the crowd, attracting many looks along the way.

She didn't care much about these looks.

She walked into the clothing store when she saw it.

After a while, she came out again, and her body was refreshed.

She was dressed in white and purple, simple and clean.

She was holding a package of her dirty clothes in her hand.

She walked and looked along the way, and ran straight into the wine house when she saw it.

After eating and drinking, it was time to light the lamp.

Lu Jiuwan slapped the silver on the table, "Waiter, get the best room."

The waiter came over with a smile, put away the silver on the table, and took out the book in his arms, "Dear guest, I need to see your ID card and register it."

Lu Jiuwan: "...Do you need an ID card to stay?"

The waiter was curious, "Dear guest, don't you know? You are a lady from a wealthy family, so it's understandable that you don't know. If you don't have an ID card, you can't stay in the hotel. The inspection has been particularly strict in recent months. If you are caught, you're done. You don't have an ID card, so you must not be from outside the city, so you should go home."

The waiter counted the silver, returned some, put it on the table and left.

Lu Jiuwan: ...

Is this so strict in ancient times?

Just like an ID card, you can't move without it.

Where are we staying tonight?

Lu Jiuwan grabbed the silver and the package and quietly threw them into the space.

After leaving the inn, lanterns were lit outside and most of the pedestrians on the road had been reduced.

A strong sense of strangeness came over me.

Lu Jiuwan walked along the road, and the shops on both sides were closed one after another.

Walking in the open air.

The city is densely populated, and it is difficult to find a place to set up a tent.

Lu Jiuwan returned the same way, went out of the city gate, and ran into the couple who had entered the city together before.

I originally wanted to spend the night in the wild, but suddenly changed my mind.

The RV is too conspicuous, and I am too lazy to live in a tent.

Mainly, both of them have to get up early to reclaim the space.

Is there a place to stay in their village?

She has money.

Lu Jiuwan followed the two people, but the two people didn't notice at all and hurried home.

"The children must be waiting anxiously, hurry up. You should come earlier if you need to deliver goods in the future. After this round of inventory, it was almost impossible for us to leave the city when it was our turn."

"What a coincidence that we have to deliver goods at this time. My wife, please sit on the bus, and I will push you."

The woman pinched the man's arm with satisfaction, "Save this strength for other places, hurry up."

The man's ears burned when he heard it, and he grinned foolishly.

"My wife, I will take a good bath tonight."

He stopped the car, held the car and smiled flatteringly, "My wife, please sit on the bus, I have a lot of strength, enough to use tonight."

"You walk slowly, and I will push you. We will be home soon, and the children are waiting anxiously."

Don't tire me out, I'm not allowed to do it tonight.

The woman saw through his little thoughts and smiled playfully.

She smoothed her skirt with both hands, leaned to the side and was about to get on the carriage, when she suddenly saw a figure not far behind her.

"Ah!"

She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she stumbled to her feet and hid behind her husband.

The man protected her and looked over here.

"Why are you following us?" He recognized that it was the person who followed them before.

The woman also recognized it.

"Why are you following us? We don't know you."

Lu Jiuwan approached the two people, spread out his hand, and inside was a large silver ingot.

"Do you have a room? Let me stay for one night."

The woman was stunned, "Are you the daughter of the great Li family?"

Lu Jiuwan: "My last name is Lu, Lu, Xiaolan."

The woman breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it wasn't her. She was afraid of getting into trouble with bandits, which would be fatal.

"What about your neck?"

Lu Jiuwan touched it and found a small scar. She had already applied medicine and would apply some scar removal cream in two days.

"It's okay. I ran too fast when I encountered a wild boar and got strangled by vines."

"Ah! This is too dangerous! Be careful next time. It's scary to think about it. By the way, girl, why are you alone?"

Lu Jiuwan: "My family members are all dead. I went to seek refuge with my relatives. On the way, the carriage got startled and fell off a cliff."

The woman understood immediately. This poor girl had nowhere to go. She couldn't go into the city with them before.

"Your clothes?"

"I asked someone to buy them from the city."

The woman no longer had any doubts. "I won't take the money. You have no place to stay tonight. I can't bear to see you. You can stay at my house for one night. I'll think of a way tomorrow."

Lu Jiuwan took back the silver.

"Let's go, Miss Lu. I have two kids waiting for us at home. Let's go faster."

B&B, just treat it as an experience of an ancient B&B.

Lu Jiuwan followed the woman, and the man never spoke.

Lu Jiuwan asked: "Do you know how to get a guarantor? Mine sank into the river with my luggage."

"You have to go to the county government to get a guarantor. Do you know anyone?"

Lu Jiuwan: "You."

The woman: "... My husband's surname is Zhou, you can call me Madam Zhou. I can't be your guarantor. I heard that there are unrests recently, and it's not easy to let go of the guarantor. Unless you can ask someone who is powerful or "You can find a famous person to be your guarantor."

Lu Jiuwan was annoyed, "Where can we find one?"

"That's impossible. Many people can't get it and can't enter the city. When will this rule be changed?"

Lu Jiuwan was annoyed, "Do you need a pass to go anywhere?"

"Of course, otherwise why would you carry a pass with you when you go out?"

Dijiang, you should abolish this rule as soon as you take power!

"In the afternoon, when we saw you, we thought you were the daughter of the great Li family. We were so scared that we didn't dare to talk to you. So you don't know the way to the city, right?" The woman likes to chat and found another topic.

Lu Jiuwan: "The daughter of Mr. Li looks like me?"

"That's not the case. We haven't seen her either. It's just that his daughter is pitiful. She was taken to the mountains by bandits a few days ago. We thought she had escaped."

"This Mr. Li is a famous person in Jiangcheng. He is kind and compassionate, but pitiful. It's useless to report to the police or to pay money to redeem her."

Celebrity?

Lu Jiuwan's mind moved.

Chapter 83 I play more than you!

Fishing village.

The bright moonlight shines on the dark road.

The barking of dogs is reassuring.

"We're here, we're here, Miss Lu, wait for me a moment." She shouted to the next door, "Mom, we're back."

The two children ran out in a hurry, chirping, anxiously, and happily calling for their parents.

Several people in the house came out and stood at the door, calling out at the same time: "We're back, come in and have dinner."

Mrs. Zhou was pulled by the two children and took out three candied haws, giving one to each of her children and one to the child in the house.

"No more, go back and eat, this is Miss Lu, she went to find her relatives alone, and got lost, so she'll stay at my house tonight, I'll go back and clean up."

"Oh~ OK." They looked at Lu Jiuwan.

Lu Jiuwan thought these people were quite normal, unlike the mean and sarcastic ones in the storybooks she read.

The family of four walked in front.

Lu Jiuwan followed quietly behind.

After just a few steps, the two children climbed onto the template car.

The honest man who didn't say a word waited patiently for them to climb, and then slowly pushed them back.

The woman opened the gate, waited for her husband to push the children in, and greeted her with a smile, "Come in, Miss Lu, the house is simple, so you can only make do with it."

Lu Jiuwan didn't say anything, and there was no disgust on her face. She walked in at ease.

The man smiled and took the children down, went into the house, turned on the lights, and started to work silently.

Madam Zhou called her, "Come, Miss Lu, you can stay in this room tonight. It's the room where the children live. They will just squeeze in with us at night."

Lu Jiuwan glanced at her and looked away.

Your husband will probably hate me. He has all his strength left. He may be waiting expectantly now.

Madam Zhou: "I'm going to change the quilt and mattress. I just bought new fabric and just sewed it. I was planning to change it because the weather is cold."

Lu Jiuwan looked around. The conditions were simple, but clean, and there was no strange smell in the room.

"It's a bother." She said.

"Oh, it's not a bother. You sit and wait for me for a while. I'll clean it up soon." Madam Zhou chatted with her while cleaning.

"It's very dangerous for a woman to walk outside. Just like a few days ago, I heard that the young lady of the Li family was kidnapped by thieves in broad daylight just after she came back from burning incense in the temple. She often takes maids and servants with her when she goes out."

"You are alone, oh, you look like a fairy, and you have a good figure, oh."

Mrs. Zhou was worried about her, her eyes lit up, "Or, you can find a place to stay first, and then ask someone to go to your relatives' house to inform the news, and let the men come to pick you up."

Lu Jiuwan played with her children's toys, and said casually without looking back: "I'm not afraid."

Mrs. Zhou: "..."

Seeing her follow herself and her husband alone in the middle of the night, she really looks like a tiger, with a tiger head and tiger body.

Now she is even more worried.

This girl is really worrying.

Alas.

"That kind man just let it go? He won't save his daughter?" If he didn't care about his daughter, it would be useless for her to save her.

"Mr. Li asked many people to save her, but no one was willing to take the job."

"How much did he offer?"

"I don't know. I heard it was very generous and he was very generous. When the thief saw that he was so generous, he sent someone to tell Mr. Li that he would marry his daughter to him and asked him to give her dowry. If he didn't give her dowry, he would kill his daughter. Such a shameless thief is really hateful."

"Mr. Li dared not disobey and prepared things according to the gift list. Tomorrow we will send them fish to the foot of the mountain."

Lu Jiuwan heard the answer she wanted to hear.

After changing the sheets and bedding, Mrs. Zhou cleaned up everywhere.

"Miss Lu, you've packed up and can go to bed later. There's hot water in the kitchen. If you want to wash and soak your feet, come to the kitchen to get water. The basin is there. Rest for a while. I'll call you when dinner is ready."

Lu Jiuwan put down her toys and looked at the bed, which was clean and tidy. "I've eaten. I asked someone to buy me some cakes. I'm not hungry. I'm going to wash my feet."

She followed Madam Zhou to the kitchen.

The kitchen was warm and the fire was cozy.

Two children were sitting in front of the stove, laughing and giggling. The man was busy by the stove, and the stove was steaming.

Lu Jiuwan walked to the stove and looked inside. There was fish boiled in pickled cabbage water.

It smelled good.

The man dodged to the side: ... This woman is a little unusual.

Madam Zhou understood her husband's expression.

"Hahaha, is it delicious? My husband's cooking is pretty good. Let's eat some together later?"

Lu Jiuwan hesitated for a moment and shook her head, "Forget it, I can't hold it anymore."

Her mouth was hungry and her stomach was full.

After a simple wash, Lu Jiuwan went back to her room and lay down.

A small lamp was dimly lit.

The sound insulation of ancient houses was not good, and the laughter of a family of four could be heard from the kitchen.

Night fell, and she was alone.

Lu Jiuwan blew out the lamp to save oil for her family.

When she woke up again, the room was dark.

"Husband, husband~ Stop touching, the children are here."

"Don't be afraid, they sleep better than pigs, wife, I've washed myself, you're so soft..."

"Husband, it's so nice to squeeze."

"Husband will carry you off the bed." There was a rustling sound, and the man suppressed his excitement, "Wife, hold the bed frame."

"This, this, where did you learn this, it's not proper~"

"Wife, others say the more improper it is, the more comfortable it is, I want to try it too."

"Then, then be gentle~ There's Miss Lu next door."

"Don't be afraid, that person looks a little silly, she can't understand." He untied his wife's bellyband and rolled it into a ball, "Wife, bite it."

Lu Jiuwan:...

Am I stupid?

Am I not understanding?

Which bastard told you that?

I play more than you!

Lu Jiuwan just listened and counted to see how many seconds you can last.

The soundproofing was poor, and it was pitch black at night. The sound was particularly loud. As soon as Lu Jiuwan closed her eyes, the two people seemed to be doing the same thing in front of her bed...

Lu Jiuwan felt a little annoyed.

She was lonely to begin with, and now she looked more like a poor little wanderer.

As she listened, she fell asleep again.

Woke up again.

A few rays of sunlight shone through the window.

Outside was the sound of Madam Zhou and her man talking.

"Husband, after dinner, we will go and deliver the fish to the mountain thieves' lair. We should go early and come back early, and go with everyone, so as not to be left alone."

"I will go alone, my wife, you are not allowed to go."

"Can you push it alone?" She didn't want to go either. What if she was robbed up the mountain? What would she do?

She used to be a beauty in the village, but now she is a little older, in her twenties.

But husband said she is getting prettier.

"I can push it, what can't I push? I am extra strong today."

When Lu Jiuwan heard that they were going to deliver goods to the mountain thieves, she hurriedly got up, her past.

In the morning, they ate fish again, a big pot of fish.

Lu Jiuwan ate two big bowls with a calm face.

Madam Zhou secretly sighed, this girl looked slim, but she ate a lot, the same as her husband.

"I'm leaving soon, thank you for the hospitality." After the meal, Lu Jiuwan said to Madam Zhou who was cleaning up the dishes.

Madam Zhou asked hurriedly, "Where are we going? You don't have a passport, so you can't enter the city. Your relatives live in the city, right? Do you need my help?"

Lu Jiuwan: "Thank you, I'll follow your husband."

"Ah, what are you going to do with my husband?"

"To find a passport."

"Oh, you can't go there. Why are you so stupid? That's a thief's nest. You can't think of a way out without a passport. Are you going there to save your life?"

"I have a way to make the thieves surrender, don't worry."

Madam Zhou: ... God, this is so stupid.

Chapter 84 The worst boss, go kill them

When the Zhou family man pushed the fish cart out, Lu Jiuwan followed behind with a veil on his face.

Mrs. Zhou was tired, and she tried to persuade him for a long time, but he didn't move.

This girl really seemed to be missing a nerve, and it was completely useless to communicate with her. She could only wear a veil to cover her stunning beauty.

Watching the person walk farther and farther away.

Mrs. Zhou could only pray for her safety in her heart.

Along the way, the Zhou family man hesitated several times, but still didn't say a word.

His wife said what she should say and persuaded what she should persuade.

Shaked her head.

Gathering outside the city gate, the housekeeper of the Li family counted the goods, and then led the people to the foot of the mountain where the bandits lived, feeling sad and angry.

There was a long line of people delivering goods, each with a cart, carrying food, drink and daily necessities, stretching for more than a hundred meters.

As soon as a group of people arrived at the foot of the mountain.

They heard a burst of extremely arrogant shouting.

A group of extremely arrogant bandits carrying big knives jumped down from the mountain and the trees.

They circled around the group of people, laughing arrogantly while turning, suppressing, intimidating and mocking the group of people delivering goods.

The people surrounded in the middle lowered their heads nervously, like lambs to be slaughtered.

After turning a few circles, a man with a fierce face inserted the knife into the ground vigorously, and the blade went deep into the ground.

The delivery people watched quietly, not daring to say a word. If this happened to them...

"Okay, count the goods quickly. The boss said that if there is one thing missing, one of Miss Li's fingers will be chopped off. Anyway, she won't die if she loses her finger. She can still use it. The boss doesn't mind."

Everyone was so scared that their necks shrank.

A group of bandits laughed wantonly.

After counting the goods, the bandits let them go. "Get lost, a group of cowards, hahaha."

The group ran away impatiently.

"Let's go!" The Zhou family man called Lu Jiuwan before leaving.

Lu Jiuwan tilted her head to look at him, "I've put a silver ingot on your bed, as accommodation and food money. I'm going up the mountain, you go back, I'll be fine."

The Zhou family man was shocked, this man was going up the mountain!

"You're crazy!" He saw the bandits coming this way, and quickly reached out to pull her.

Lu Jiuwan dodged, "I'm a relative of the bandits, don't worry, I'm going up to recognize my relatives."

The man was shocked and speechless, and looked at her for the first time, but he couldn't see clearly with the veil on, so he pushed the cart and left quickly.

The bandits with fierce faces came over, and the others were curious and came over.

A group of stinky men looked Lu Jiuwan up and down.

Although her face could not be seen due to the mask, her graceful figure could be seen.

Standing among them, she did not look frightened at all.

This made them even more excited.

"Are you so scared that you can't run?"

"Hahahahahaha, it doesn't look like that. It looks more like she is here to seek revenge."

This made everyone laugh even more wildly.

Lu Jiuwan: "You are right. I am here to seek revenge. I will kill you."

She spoke calmly and without any threat.

The fierce man found it very interesting. "Okay, you are a little brave. You are much better than those cowards just now. Hahaha."

He stepped forward and reached out to take off her veil.

Lu Jiuwan dodged flexibly, "You are not worthy of looking at my face, I am here to kill you."

The fierce bandit stopped, this woman had an attractive figure and a temper that suited his taste.

However, he was not the boss, so he had to pick the best ones first.

Forget it, I'll send her to the mountain first, maybe she doesn't look that good.

If the bosses don't like her, it's his turn.

He doesn't care much about the face, he mainly looks at the figure.

The cold face turned into a smile, "Okay, okay, kill, go to the mountain to kill, several bosses are on the mountain, the bosses are the worst, go and kill them."

Lu Jiuwan nodded, "Well, kill them first and then kill you, let's go, lead the way."

The fierce bandit looked happy, "Hurry up, take all the things and go up the mountain."

A group of bandits were amused and laughed, carrying things up the mountain.

The road up the mountain was trampled bright by the bandits.

Along the way, there were people stationed not far away, and the guarding was quite strict.

When you reach the halfway point of the mountain, you can see the whole appearance of the bandit's nest at a glance, a small and crowded mountain stronghold.

The whole mountain stronghold is in the mountain, which seems hidden.

The village looked very lively, with people constantly moving around.

The fierce bandit ordered his men to carry the things into the warehouse.

"Hurry up and take them to the kitchen to prepare them. The boss is very happy today, so make sure everyone has a good meal. Hang up the red cloths to make it lively and festive."

Everyone responded happily.

He led a few people and led Lu Jiuwan to the most respectable big house in the middle of the village.

Lu Jiuwan glanced at the location of the kitchen.

"I've had this injury for so long, and I've been taking medicine every day, but it's still not healed! I'm going to have my wedding night tonight, are you doing this on purpose? Hurry up and heal me!"

As soon as Lu Jiuwan walked to the door, he saw a burly man kicking the weak man in front of him down.

The fierce bandit walked into the room with a flattering look on his face, "Don't be angry, boss, this doctor is not good, kill him and replace him."

He pointed at Lu Jiuwan, "Boss, look, there's another beauty."

The boss followed his hand and looked outside, and a woman with a beautiful figure stood at the door.

Although she was wearing a veil, her light figure and dignified demeanor made her absolutely a peerless beauty.

She felt prettier than the woman he had seen in a daze a few days ago and was determined to bring back.

"Where did she come from?" She looked calm, and didn't seem to be forced to come.

"She came to our door on her own, saying she wanted to kill us. I said there were many people on the mountain, so she came to kill us there, and she followed me."

The boss was stunned, "Hahahaha, hahahaha, interesting, interesting. The wooden beauty is good, with a simple mind and not stubborn."

He stood up and walked towards the door.

"Where is the woman you brought back a few days ago?" Lu Jiuwan asked him before he got close.

The boss didn't care much, "Are you here to avenge her? She's not dead yet, I locked her up, and I was supposed to marry her today..."

He walked up to Lu Jiuwan and smiled confidently, "Beauty, take off your veil."

"Where are you locked up?"

The boss didn't answer, and raised his hand to take off her veil.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Lu Jiuwan sighed and raised her hand.

"Bang!"

The boss's burly body froze for two seconds, and then slowly fell back.

The huge and unfamiliar sound shocked everyone in the group.

When they came to their senses, they saw that the boss had fallen to the ground, with blood flowing from the middle of his forehead and his eyes wide open.

Dead, it was obvious that he was dead!

The brutal bandit was incredulous. What happened? I asked you to kill the boss, but you really did it?

Chapter 85: Destroyed the bandit den

The boss died.

No one saw clearly how he died.

But they saw that it was the black hidden weapon in the woman's hand that was pointed at the boss.

The fierce bandit really didn't expect that he cursed the boss to death.

This woman, damn it.

She didn't lie.

She really came to kill people!

"This woman killed the boss, kill her for me!"

The fierce bandit was not afraid of the black hidden weapon in the woman's hand at all. He had discovered it, and could it be used on him a second time!

The so-called hidden weapon can only be used in secret.

This is all in the open.

It is equivalent to waste.

The two henchmen brought by the vicious bandit swung their machetes fiercely and angrily, and attacked Lu Jiuwan.

Several people standing guard in the yard also rushed over swiftly.

Lu Jiuwan reacted quickly, as fast as a sharp arrow, stepped back, and used his elbow to stimulate the short bandit behind him to cover his nose, which was bleeding profusely.

Lu Jiuwan had already rushed forward swiftly, turned over to avoid the machete of the man in front of him, and spun through the air, and slashed his neck with one foot.

Her skirt flew with her neat movements, and she retreated cleanly and neatly from the encirclement.

The vicious bandit's face turned cold, and he swung his machete at Lu Jiuwan.

This woman, playing dumb!

In addition to hidden weapons, she also knows martial arts!

Several people standing guard were also stunned. They didn't expect this woman to be so skilled.

Looking at the people rushing towards them one by one.

Lu Jiuwan's expression did not change at all, and he raised the gun in his hand again.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

"Uh! Uh! Ah!..."

Her shooting skills were extremely accurate. She shot one by one and killed them directly.

She had no mercy on these bandits. They were all man-eating beasts. Compared with zombies, they were just more flexible.

In just a few seconds, there were no survivors.

These people died from the hidden weapons they underestimated. They died too quickly and had no time to react to the hidden weapons' ferocity and speed. They had no time to react, let alone dodge.

The sound of gunfire echoed in the valley and soon attracted everyone's attention.

The second in command, who was sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes, "Who the hell is setting off firecrackers so early!"

He felt that the sound was wrong and told the guards outside, "Go and see what's going on."

The third in command, who was sleeping with a woman, stopped suddenly, "Fuck her grandma, she scared me! Who the hell is doing this, what's that bang bang bang sound! Go and see, who the hell is tired of living!"

The people who were planning the wedding also stopped, "What's the sound?"

"I don't know, it came from the first in command, listen, bang bang bang, it's going on again."

"Go and see what's going on."

The people standing guard on the roadside also listened with their ears erect, what happened? Do you want to go and see? They pricked up their ears and waited for orders.

These bandits will not let go of any movement.

They are not afraid of the government, because the government only has a few soldiers.

They are afraid that the imperial court will send a large army to suppress them.

Lu Jiuwan was keenly aware of the movement in the village.

She walked towards the main hall.

In the corner, Huairong, a man in white, looked at her with red eyes.

The boss is dead, so good!

The bandits all kidnapped women, and he was the first man to be kidnapped, just because he was good at medicine.

These bandits kidnapped him and made him treat people every day, but they didn't give him any money and sent him away with two steamed buns a day.

He wanted to escape, but he was caught and beaten so hard that his legs were almost broken.

He had been waiting for the soldiers to come, but the bandits saw through his thoughts and laughed at him, "If the soldiers dare to come, we will call him grandpa! Hahaha."

Today, someone finally came.

Although what he didn't expect was that it was a female hero.

As expected, the legends were not deceiving, there really are heroes! They draw their swords to help the injustice!

His eyes were full of emotions, but he tried to keep his tone calm, "I'm not a bandit, I'm a doctor who was kidnapped, and I know where the woman who was kidnapped a few days ago is."

Lu Jiuwan glanced at him calmly.

He looked sideways and said to the house, "Come out."

In the house, several women came out trembling.

"Don't kill us, don't kill us. We were also kidnapped in the past few years. The boss asked us to come here to make a wedding bed for him. We were also forced."

They knelt on the ground, crying.

The two middle-aged women had a trace of panic and worry on their faces besides fear.

The two young ones, one of them was pregnant, and the other was holding a child.

The one holding the child was a little numb and absent-minded, and the pregnant woman was frightened but happy.

Lu Jiuwan frowned.

Maybe they were all kidnapped at first, but after a long time, they have become accustomed to it.

Especially the two middle-aged women, who were dressed brightly and looked like they had not suffered much in this bandit's den.

"Go in and close the door."

As long as they don't hinder her from saving people, she doesn't care about women and children.

Several people hurried in and closed the door.

General Lu Jiuwan signaled the man in white with his eyes, "Lead the way."

Huai Rong reacted quickly and led her out, "The boss locked her in the ancestral hall at the back, waiting for the wedding tonight. The woman wanted to commit suicide and was tied up."

The two just stepped out of the main hall.

A mountain bandit had already run into the yard and confronted the two. They looked at the body on the ground in astonishment.

"Come here, someone killed the boss, come quickly!"

As soon as they shouted, the people coming this way immediately quickened their pace.

Huai Rong stopped in fear, "So many bandits!"

He stepped back subconsciously and hid behind the female hero.

Lu Jiuwan raised her gun and knocked down the bandits one by one.

"Lead the way." She grabbed the man behind her.

Huai Rong saw that she was so powerful that those people fell down before they even got close.

How could there be such a powerful weapon in the world? What on earth is this? I have only heard of knives, spears, swords, and bows.

This thing is too powerful!

The shock in his heart is hard to describe.

He walked around the yard and walked back.

There were more and more bandits. "Quick, quick, raid the gang, this woman killed many of us!"

"Ring the bell, call everyone, this woman has a hidden weapon, everyone be careful!"

A bell rang in the village.

This bell would only ring when the village was in danger.

It hadn't been ringing for many years, but today it rang, and everyone was alert, and the whole village was in a state of tension.

"Here, quick!"

One by one, they chased after Lu Jiuwan fiercely.

Lu Jiuwan calmly changed his rifle to a submachine gun, turned around, stood still, and started the sweep mode.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The people in front fell down, and the people behind watched in horror from a distance, but still rushed forward.

Lu Jiuwan killed a group of them and caught up with the man in white.

Huairong saw that the people in the ancestral hall were also rushing here, and stopped in fear, "Woman, female hero, there are people here too."

Lu Jiuwan: "Squat down."

Huairong immediately squatted down obediently and heard a few bangs.

He looked back and the people behind him all fell to the ground and died.

He stood up hurriedly and went into the ancestral hall.

Another group of people rushed over, and Lu Jiuwan changed bullets leisurely.

Fighting with her, without a gun, you still play with a hammer.

Chapter 86 I killed all the bandits

In the back room, in a dim room.

A pink-dressed woman was tied up.

She had a pretty face, cold eyebrows and eyes, and there was determination and firmness in her eyes.

A bell rang, and she looked out the window with a calm look.

The sound was getting closer and closer, bang bang bang...

Noisy sounds outside, terrified shouts, and bang bang...

A light flashed in Li Xuan'er's eyes, something happened in the village.

"Bang!"

The door was opened.

She looked at the door, and a white figure hurried in, and the light in her eyes dimmed.

She thought it was someone from the government who could destroy the village.

What can a weak doctor do?

The doctor in white came every day to see if she had hurt herself, following the order of the boss.

With such a big commotion outside, could they be here to arrest him?

Then, another woman came in, a woman wearing a veil.

Huairong hurried forward to untie him, "Girl, we are here to save you, I will untie you now."

Li Xuan'er was untied, but she did not move.

A weak doctor, a woman came to save her?

What did they want to do?

With such a big commotion outside, how could she escape?

Even if she escaped by chance, the bandits would come to her house because of a grudge.

Since the day she was captured, she was ready to end her life.

"Thank you for saving me." Although she couldn't figure out why these two people came to save her, they didn't know each other.

"I can't implicate you and my family. Even if I escape, my family won't be spared."

Lu Jiuwan: "I killed all the bandits, and no one will seek revenge."

Li Xuan'er:?

"What did you say?"

Lu Jiuwan didn't reply. She turned her head to look outside, retracted her gaze and said, "Wait in the house, I will kill them all."

Behind them, the two watched Lu Jiuwan's calm and unrestrained back as she walked out of the room.

Kill them all? !

Does she know how many bandits there are on this mountain?

But Huairong has seen her weapons.

It seems that killing all the bandits is not impossible.

Outside the ancestral hall, all the bandits in the mountain stronghold were approaching here, with bloodthirsty expressions on their faces.

No one dared to look down on this woman anymore, who had killed so many of them.

This woman was doomed to die. It would be fine if she died on the spot, but if she was caught alive, she would be worse off than dead.

They surrounded the ancestral hall and approached it cautiously. The expressions on their faces were the calm and brutal expressions that Lu Jiuwan was accustomed to.

Lu Jiuwan scanned these people, about a hundred people.

A bandit's nest of one or two hundred people, no wonder the government had no way to deal with it.

She raised her hand that was hanging in her sleeve, and everyone saw a round thing in her hand.

With a click of her fingers, the spring popped open.

Then she threw it into the crowd.

The bandits thought it was poison gas, so they raised their sleeves to cover their noses and dispersed immediately.

However, they were crowded and exploded before they could disperse.

Lu Jiuwan did not stop, throwing one here and one there, and threw three grenades in a row.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"..."

The explosion radius of the grenade is about ten meters, which will produce a strong shock wave and splash, but three grenades can't kill so many people.

After throwing the grenade, Lu Jiuwan held a submachine gun and started to shoot.

The wind blew, lifting half of her veil, revealing half of her beautiful face.

Huairong and Li Xuaner were lying behind the door crack, watching her from behind. They saw her calm back and relaxed posture.

The mist in her hand was powerful, and the people in front of her fell down.

The two were shocked and looked at her stupidly.

Who is this woman? She is so powerful.

If she goes to the battlefield, she can defeat thousands of troops by herself. Isn't she a female general?

In front of hot weapons, cold weapons have no chance to get close.

The bandits finally knew they were scared, and the survivors began to flee in all directions.

Lu Jiuwan stood in place and recorded the number of people fleeing in each direction.

He changed to a sniper rifle and aimed at a long distance.

If any of these people escaped, they would be a potential threat to innocent people. How could the bandits live peacefully if they returned to the crowd?

"Bang!"

One, two, three...

The people who escaped looked at the people who fell beside them in horror. How could they be killed so far away!

They ran even harder, but no one escaped.

The two people in the house were already stunned, their hearts were numb.

"Let's go." The elegant voice woke them up.

Huai Rong swallowed his saliva and said to Li Xuan'er tremblingly: "Let's go, the bandits are all dead, you can go back without worry."

Anyway, the female hero won't kill them, so there's no need to worry.

The two came out, shocked and carefully followed Lu Jiuwan, not daring to look directly at the corpses on the ground.

Walking out, they saw that Lu Jiuwan did not lead them out of the mountain stronghold directly.

Instead, they came to the place where the boss lived.

Lu Jiuwan turned around and looked at the two of them, "Wait for me outside."

She went into the house. The boss's room was very large.

It was not elegant, but it was very consistent with the identity of a mountain bandit.

Precious ornaments, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, vases and antiques, all placed in a conspicuous position, looking messy and extravagant.

Throwing one by one into the space.

Knocking everywhere, there was a strange echo under the bed, she squatted down and turned over the bottom board on the ground, a cellar.

Shine the flashlight inside, it is not small.

Lu Jiuwan went down, the cellar was full of wooden boxes.

Open any of them at random, and the gold, silver, and jewelry will dazzle your eyes in the flashlight.

Lu Jiuwan raised his eyelids and knew it.

How could such a big bandit den not have some treasures?

All of them are stolen goods, confiscated.

As usual, the rooms of the second and third in command were also searched, and a lot of treasures were looted.

There must be more than these, but the majority must be here.

There are still some women and children hiding in this village, and some of them may have just been kidnapped.

The smart ones will wait for her to leave and then find some entanglements and leave quickly.

The stupid ones will wait for the government officials to come up and take them away for questioning one by one, and then make arrangements.

Coming out of the third master's house, Lu Jiuwan saw green smoke coming out of the kitchen.

"Hurry up."

Her slightly anxious words made Huairong and Li Xuan'er's hearts skip a beat.

The two hurriedly followed.

Huairong: "What's wrong?"

What was she looking for in the rooms of the three masters?

What happened now?

When Lu Jiuwan arrived, the bandits in the kitchen hurried to deal with themselves, and the pot caught fire.

She put all the things sent by the Li family today into the space one by one.

The kitchen is connected to the warehouse, and most of the grain, vegetables, fruits, and meat in the warehouse were also collected, not to mention the corners.

Huairong and Li Xuaner were waiting outside, each in silence, not knowing what the female hero was looking for.

"Female hero, come out quickly, the kitchen is going to catch fire." The green smoke on the roof was getting thicker and thicker, and Huairong shouted anxiously.

Li Xuaner stepped forward and was about to go and take a look.

Lu Jiuwan came out from inside.

"Let's go to your house." She said to Li Xuaner.

There was no surprise on Li Xuaner's cold face, and she nodded, "Okay."

The savior is going to his home, and his family should thank him well.

Even if he doesn't go, she should invite him.

Huairong pursed his lips and glanced at Lu Jiuwan quietly.

Silently followed the two.

Arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Lu Jiuwan glanced at Huairong and said, "You can go now."

Chapter 87 Little Brother +1

Huai Rong paused, a little afraid of her.

He hesitated for a while, mustered up the courage to speak, but Lu Jiuwan had already walked away.

He hurriedly trotted to catch up, mustering up the courage again.

"Lady, can I follow you?"

Lu Jiuwan walked leisurely, and two big juicy duck pears appeared from nowhere in his hand, and handed one to Li Xuaner.

He wiped his body, took off the gauze on his clothes, took a bite, "Not too big."

Li Xuaner looked at the duck pear in her hand, her eyes turned to the right, and her remaining eyes quietly looked at her sleeves.

Just now, I searched for a long time in the first, second, third and kitchen rooms, just to find these two pears?

Suddenly thinking of her weapon, she stopped and said with certainty: "Girl, you forgot to take your weapon."

Come on, for two pears, she threw away all her weapons.

Huairong:... Heroine you!

Lu Jiuwan didn't stop and took another big bite, "No need, hurry up and go to your house."

Such a powerful weapon, you don't want it anymore?

Huairong's heart was beating fast, where did you throw it? He wanted to pick it up!

Li Xuaner: ? ? Really don't want it anymore?

Lu Jiuwan walked forward and saw that no one was following her.

Looking back, she chewed lively with great doubts.

"Go?"

The extremely beautiful appearance made the two of them stunned at the same time. The heroine actually looked like this?

It's hard to imagine that she is still so powerful. |

After being shocked, Li Xuan'er said seriously, "Girl, where did you throw it? I'll go pick it up."

Huai Rong was excited, afraid that he could not pick it up, "I'll go too, one for each of us!"

Lu Jiuwan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed non-stop.

The two of them were gradually flushed by her laughter.

"Lady, we are serious. Did you throw it in the kitchen or in the house of the head of the family? It's over. Could it have been picked up by the people on the mountain?"

Huai Rong's heart was so distressed that it was pulled up.

Li Xuan'er nodded.

Lu Jiuwan stopped laughing and scratched his head.

Tsk.

"When did I say I threw it away? That's called a gun, a mechanical weapon that can be enlarged and shrunk, very exquisite."

She reached into her sleeves and found Xiuzhen's gun in her palm.

Huairong:?

Li Xuaner:?

The two of them were filled with doubts and disbelief, like a rusty spring that wanted to turn but couldn't.

Is this really not a lie?

Something so powerful is just such a small thing?

"Hurry up, let's go." Lu Jiuwan put away the gun, put it back into his sleeves and entered the space.

Li Xuaner secretly adjusted her hard mood and followed.

Huairong stood there awkwardly, thinking for a few seconds, and followed with a thick face.

"Lady, just accept me! I'm a doctor. I'm smart and studious, and my medical skills are pretty good. In time, I will become a famous doctor."

Lu Jiuwan: "Go home."

Huai Rong's eyes turned red, "I have no home. I've been an orphan since I was a child. My parents died, and I was driven out by my uncle's family and begged everywhere."

"Later, I met my master, who asked me to be a medicine boy. I followed him to learn medicine and medicine since I was a child. He also passed away two years ago. I lived alone by selling herbs to treat illnesses. A year ago, I was captured by bandits and taken to the mountains. Today, you saved me."

His voice choked with sobs, and he didn't feel wronged by what happened in the past few years.

In fact, the master didn't treat him well. He was more tired than other people's servants, but he was still grateful for having a place to grow up in the wind and rain.

Later, he also took care of the master until his death.

The most undignified thing is that he, a grown man, was actually taken to the mountains.

He was beaten for treating patients. The bandits asked him if the wound was the size of a palm. No matter how he explained, it was useless. He was beaten again if he could not recover, and he was starved for several meals.

He was a grown man, but he only ate two steamed buns a day. He was quite strong before.

Look at what he looks like now. He can't even touch his belly!

Only then did Lu Jiuwan turn his head and give him a straight look.

He was tall, thin, handsome, and well-dressed.

"Why do you have to follow me? I have a husband... I have a husband."

Huairong never dared to think of being her husband. Just imagine it, and the sound of bang bang bang echoed in her mind.

"No, no, lady, how dare I have such a desire. I want to be a servant beside you. I have served my master since I was a child. I can do everything and I can treat illnesses."

He muttered in a low voice: "I just don't know where to go, and I don't want to be alone. I haven't been back for a year. My master's house is estimated to have been blown down by the wind, and the door panels have been picked up and burned by the neighbors."

Lu Jiuwan looked at him and thought about it. It's good to have someone serving you, or someone who came to your door by himself, or an orphan with no ties.

Perfect.

"You can follow me, but I demand absolute loyalty. If you dare to betray me and plot against me while following me, I have something a hundred times more terrifying than a gun."

Huairong smiled and nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, I'm loyal, absolutely loyal!"

Following such a strong female hero, even if you are a servant, it is a very glorious thing, okay?

And the female hero, no, his daughter, is kind-hearted, helping the weak and the strong, and she is easy to get along with.

He suddenly felt that being taken to the mountain was not a bad thing, otherwise such an opportunity would have been missed.

He felt very happy.

His face was visibly flushed with joy.

"Miss, are you really married?"

I'm really very curious, what kind of man will such a lady match.

Li Xuan'er also raised her ears curiously, very curious.

Lu Jiuwan nodded, "Married."

"Ah?" Huairong asked carefully, "Are they divorced?"

Li Xuan'er felt that there was nothing unbelievable about this, who could suppress this girl.

Lu Jiuwan: "Half divorced."

Huairong: Huh? What do you mean?

Li Xuan'er:?

"Don't worry about him, let's go."

The two followed in confusion. They could understand every word he said, but when they put them together, they didn't understand.

He tried to ask, "Miss, after going to the Li family, are we going back to find our aunt?"

Ban Yili means... our aunt is out and hasn't been home for a long time?

So Miss is out to find her aunt, right?

He should be right.

Lu Jiuwan: "Yes, to find my aunt."

Find a new aunt.

Go to the Li family... She almost forgot, she looked at Li Xuan'er, "Little Li, have you never been able to enter the city gate?"

Little Li?

Li Xuan'er responded and was calling herself.

"My name is Li Xuan'er, you can call me Xuan'er. My uncle is on duty at the city gate, so he can get in."

"What about us, me and my younger brother, what should we do?"

Li Xuan'er thought for a while, "Miss, I'll inconvenience you and pretend to be my maid and servant. My uncle is here, so you won't be investigated."

Lu Jiuwan nodded, "It's a family with connections. Can your father help me get a pass?"

Li Xuan'er nodded, "It should be no problem, and if you report to the government that you killed the bandits, they will definitely help you. This is their biggest headache."

Chapter 88 Little Rogue

A group of three people.

Lu Jiuwan was leisurely, Li Xuaner was heavy.

Huairong chattered all the way, saying a lot of bad things about the bandits.

Arrived at the city gate.

It was evening.

There were four people on duty at the city gate, two were in charge of entry, busy in the morning; two were in charge of exit, busy in the evening.

It was a quiet time at the entrance.

"Old Li, Did your eldest brother's family really send the dowry over there?"

"Alas, what can we do? Blame me for being useless. I am just a gatekeeper and can't save her."

"Aren't you afraid of the bandits? Just send it if you say so."

"The bandits are brutal. They won't even blink an eye if they cut off your fingers or kill you. How dare my eldest brother not send it?"

"Alas, that's right. There are so many bandits. The government can't possibly send so many people to save a little girl. How many people will be hurt."

Uncle Li shook his head. "That can't be said. It's not just for my niece. If the bandits are not eliminated, the people will never have peace. No one dares to go to that area now."

"Alas!" He approached Lao Li quietly. "I I heard a top secret message."

"What?"

"The matter of Prince Jin and the imperial edict."

Old Li was alert, "I heard that this place is not far from Nanjin City. I heard it this morning. I guess the notice will be issued after the coronation ceremony."

"So, our master has reported it many times before, asking the superiors to send troops to eliminate the bandits, but there was no response at all. This time the new emperor ascended the throne, I wonder if they can send troops this time."

Old Li sighed, "Prince Jin loves the people, he will definitely not sit idly by. It's just a pity that he would have ascended the throne a few days earlier."

"Uncle."

A light voice made Old Li and the other two concentrate, and then they found that someone had walked to their side.

Old Li looked at her carefully, "Xuan'er!"

His eyes were full of surprise, "Xuan'er, you, you, what are you doing? How did you come back!"

He thought that the bandit was getting married to her at this time.

Li Xuan'er pulled him aside and said calmly: "I can come back safely, thanks to the rescue of this female hero. Now the bandits have been killed by the female hero, uncle, you should inform the government quickly and go up to take a look. In case there are fish that have escaped the net, don't let the tiger go back to the mountain."

Old Li saw his niece coming back, and his eyes were already filled with tears. Now he opened his mouth in surprise.

"What, what? Xuan'er, say it again."

He looked at the female hero his niece was talking about. Isn't this the young lady who ran out of nowhere yesterday without any incident?

Lu Jiuwan looked up at him. It was the man who asked her for a pass and wanted to arrest her yesterday.

"Uncle, your ears are fine."

Although Old Li didn't believe it, his niece was always steady and would not say a word nonsense.

He was a little confused, "Okay, okay, what should I do now? Yes, yes, I will send you back quickly, and then go to the government to report this matter to the adults."

"Uncle, I want to invite my lifesaver to my home to thank her."

Old Li: "Of course, of course. After confirmation, if what you said is true, not only you, but also the people of the whole city will thank her. Come on, come on, I will take you back."

The official next to them didn't hear the conversation between the two, but he couldn't understand why Li Xuan'er came back safely.

It was absolutely true that she was taken to the mountain. How could the bandits let her go?

Old Li came over, took him aside, and said a few words.

Old Qian agreed in shock, staring at Lu Jiuwan in disbelief.

...

Old Li led the three into the city.

Lu Jiuwan walked in with his head held high. It was much more glorious to go through the back door than to climb over the wall.

Li Xuaner kept her head down, as if she was afraid of being seen.

No one knew her when she first entered the city.

But when she arrived near the Li family residence, many people knew her.

"That's the eldest daughter of the Li family?"

"Yes, yes, yes, who is next to her but Old Li? Did they rescue the daughter of the Li family?"

"The mountain bandits are so fierce, how can they rescue a woman who was kidnapped on the mountain?"

"This is strange, let's go and take a look."

Li Xuan'er kept stroking her hair with her hands, trying to block the curious eyes of all parties.

Lu Jiuwan took her veil out from the space, "Stop."

Li Xuan'er stopped and looked at her.

Lu Jiuwan went around behind her and tied the veil for her, "Let's go."

Li Xuan'er's cold face was somewhat moved, "Thank you, young lady."

The veil was not enough to block the sight of these people, but it made her feel a little safe.

When the Li family's front door was opened with a bang when several people walked to the door.

"Xuan'er!" A middle-aged woman with tears on her face came forward and hugged Li Xuan'er.

Someone had come to report that their Xuan'er was back.

God opened his eyes. They prayed day and night to find a way. Finally, Xuan'er came back.

He didn't dare to go out to greet her, fearing that the scene would be too big and attract more people to pay attention to his Xuan'er.

The middle-aged man next to him was also crying, and there was a half-grown boy shouting "sister" in a hoarse voice.

Lu Jiuwan took a look and squeezed in from the side of them. Huairong hurriedly moved Li the kind man to the side to avoid touching his young lady's body.

Lu Jiuwan gave him an encouraging look.

Huairong: ...

Outside the Li family, the discussion was getting louder and louder.

...

"Sir, I have great news to report!" Old Li ran all the way to the government office.

"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Sir, the bandits have been wiped out!"

"What! Who did it? I just submitted my memorial today, and the court sent troops?"

"No, it was a female hero. My niece was kidnapped by bandits a few days ago, as you know, but she has just been rescued by the female hero."

The official stood up in shock, "One?"

"It is indeed one. My niece has always been honest and upright since she was a child."

The official was relieved, "No matter what, send someone to check it out first. If it is true, I will definitely thank this female hero!"

The people sent by the government rushed to the bandit mountain.

The mountain stronghold was silent in the twilight.

The mountain stronghold was full of corpses.

All the officers and soldiers were shocked.

"How did they do it? How could one person kill so many people?"

"What kind of weapon is this? Such a small wound, a slingshot?"

"What bullshit, can a slingshot kill so many people?"

"I must take a good look at whether that female hero has three heads and six arms."

Lao Li: "She looks like a fairy, how can she have three heads and six arms."

Everyone looked unconvinced.

...

When the night fell, Lu Jiuwan finished washing up and was politely and respectfully invited to the dinner table.

She was hungry at the sight of a table full of rich food.

"Thank you for saving my daughter's life, but I don't know your name."

Lu Jiuwan ate seriously and replied casually, "Lu Xiaolan, Xiao for big and small, Lan for orchid. Tomorrow, I'll trouble you to help me get a passport. If there is any other information to fill in, you can fill it in at will."

Li Dashanren: "... OK, OK, no problem, these are all small things. The heroine is really straightforward."

"Huairong, do you have it? Didn't you ask Li Shanren to help you with it?"

Huairong shook his head, "I don't have it either."

Li Dashanren: "No problem, no problem."

Mrs. Li has a kind face and a gentle smile.

"Miss Lu is so delicate and beautiful, but she doesn't want to have such powerful martial arts. It's really rare in the world. In addition to the past, does the girl want nothing else?"

Lu Jiuwan thought for a while, "Make me more beautiful clothes."

The clothes she bought yesterday were a bit unsuitable, tight in the chest, loose in the waist, and not fitting.

"This, is it?"

"Yeah."

...

At night, the Li family decorated Lu Jiuwan's room with great fanfare.

A guest room was decorated for them to be more luxurious and beautiful than the room of a lady from a wealthy family.

Lu Jiuwan had no psychological burden at all. She washed and dressed under the service of the maid, and lay down on the bed easily.

Closing her eyes, the appearance of Dijiang suddenly appeared in her mind.

Lu Jiuwan opened her eyes, and the dark room was still the same as before.

How could this man take root in her mind, little scoundrel.

And in the palace of Nanjin City.

Di Jiang was still busy at his desk. When Di Xuanyi was in power, he did not care about government affairs. He had to familiarize himself with the government affairs while dealing with old things.

Chapter 89 Reward

Li Xuan'er stood in front of the window, looking at the bright moon, her back was cold.

She had only been away from home for a few days, but it seemed like a lifetime had passed.

She was finally safe, but her heart could not calm down.

All she could think about were the excited faces and the excited tone of the people she met on the way back today.

Scared.

She had been back for several hours.

Her fiancé, who had always cared for her and asked about her well-being, had never shown his face.

Chilled and hopeless.

She seemed to be able to feel a bad breath surrounding her.

Actually, it would be good to die on the mountain.

Did not sleep all night.

Early the next morning.

There was a lively sound outside the Li family, with gongs, drums, and suonas.

The sound was getting closer.

Old Li ran into the Li family with a happy face, and before he saw the man, he shouted, "Brother, where is the heroine? The master is here in person, bringing the reward."

Mr. Li had already heard the lively sound outside, and his face was also full of joy, "Hurry up, go and invite Miss Lu."

Lu Jiuwan slept well all night.

This morning, the maid brought some gorgeous jewelry and clothes to help her dress up.

"Miss Lu, our Madam said that the tailor-made clothes for you have been handed over to several embroiderers to make overnight. You can wear our young lady's clothes for now, they are all brand new."

"And these sets of jewelry, Madam said you can keep them and wear them in turn. If you like any style, just tell me and I will tell Madam and Madam will ask someone to make it for you."

"Well, thank you, Madam." Madam Li is still a person who pays attention to details.

Lu Jiuwan looked in the mirror and saw the strange hairstyle that the maid had combed for her. It was beautiful and neat.

"Miss Lu, you are so beautiful!"

"Thank you for the compliment."

The maid was stunned, and the two looked at each other and laughed like bells.

"Miss Lu, you are so lovely."

"Miss Lu, you are so kind."

No one has ever been so generous to thank someone for their beauty, especially the lowly maids.

"Miss Lu, the government officials are here, and the master asked me to inform you." A servant ran over happily.

Lu Jiuwan replied indifferently, "I know, I'll come right away."

The front yard was extremely lively.

The government officials, all the masters and servants of the Li family, and the people who came from afar to see the excitement, as well as the neighbors, all crowded into the front yard of the Li family.

The originally spacious courtyard suddenly became crowded and lively.

"Here we go, the heroine is here." A shout of surprise made everyone look in the direction of their sight.

The carved arch, the verdant bamboo, and a graceful woman in white walked out of the door.

The morning sun was bright, shining on the woman's white clothes. She was covered with thousands of rays of light, as if she was in the smoke and mist.

She walked with a calm and steady pace, and a group of people gradually saw her face clearly.

An extremely beautiful face, the compatibility of beauty and purity is not contradictory.

The long black hair was tied into a simple and beautiful bun, and the snow-white headband fluttered in the air, showing her beauty.

Old Li looked around and found that everyone was looking at the heroine with a silent expression.

"Tsk, blow it, play music, what are you doing, hurry up."

Everyone seemed to come back to their senses, but they couldn't take their eyes off her.

The courtyard was bustling with gongs, drums and suona.

Lu Jiuwan frowned slightly, raised his hands while walking, and blocked his ears with two index fingers.

Huai Rong squeezed over and followed her to protect her from being bumped.

Mr. Li happily introduced to the person sitting on the chair, "Sir, the heroine is here."

The official put down his teacup and stood up, still a little bit unbelievable that this young and beautiful woman was actually the heroine who destroyed the bandit's nest.

He took two steps forward and bowed slightly to Lu Jiuwan, "Thank you, female hero, for saving the people of Jiangcheng from the dire situation."

Lu Jiuwan couldn't hear him, so she put down her hand and asked loudly, "Ah?"

The official turned his head, frowned, raised his hand and pressed, "Shut up!"

The music stopped abruptly.

The official changed his expression to a gentle and respectful one, "I am here to thank the female hero Lu for saving the people of Jiangcheng from the dire situation. The mountain bandits are rampant, and my biggest wish while in office is to get rid of these mountain bandits, and today I finally got my wish."

Everyone echoed in a mess.

"Yes, thank you Lady Lu for helping us kill the bandits."

"Thank you, Lady Lu."

"Thank you, Lady Lu, otherwise we would still be living in fear."

Lu Jiuwan didn't show much expression, but still said calmly, "Thank you for your help."

Thank you for your help!

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

The official said, "Someone, bring up the award stand."

Everyone made way for them, and four people came forward with two boxes with great effort.

When they opened them, the white silver reflected the silvery metallic luster in the sunlight.

Everyone was amazed.

Lu Jiuwan's eyes lit up quietly, so much silver!

"This is 1,000 taels of silver, please accept it, Miss Lu. I have issued bounties many times, and whoever can kill the bandits will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver. Since the female hero killed the bandits, naturally the reward should belong to the female hero."

The eyes of the people around were full of envy, but they also knew that this little bit of silver was not something that could be obtained by luck.

1,000 taels of silver is a lot, but it is not much for killing bandits.

The bandits are ferocious, and there are so many of them.

Lu Jiuwan nodded, "Huairong, take it."

Huairong nodded happily, "Yes."

The official smiled heartily when he saw that the female hero Lu accepted the silver readily.

"The female hero Lu is indeed a person of the world, and she is straightforward and decisive. I am curious, why the female hero has learned such skills at such a young age, it is really shocking!"

Lu Jiuwan: "... She is a natural martial arts genius and has been trained since childhood, it is not surprising."

"I wonder who the female hero learned from?"

"My master doesn't allow me to tell you, so I can't tell you."

The official nodded in understanding, "Then I wonder why the female hero went to Jiangcheng and happened to pass by the mountain stronghold and killed the bandits?"

"I..." What is that, what is the ID card called?

"No more entanglements. I heard that there is a reward for catching the bandits. Now it seems to be true."

Everyone laughed happily. This female hero is really a person of temperament. She says what she thinks.

At this time, the whole city has posted notices: The female hero Lu Xiaolan has wiped out 212 bandits by herself, and the troubles in Jiangcheng have been eliminated.

The whole city is in an uproar. All of a sudden, the topic about the bandits and who Lu Xiaolan is is a hot topic.

When the official left, Lu Jiuwan winked at Mr. Li Shanren.

Mr. Li Shanren immediately understood and followed.

"Huairong, go and exchange the silver for banknotes, buy a carriage and luggage, and eat breakfast outside by yourself."

Huairong nodded and asked a few servants of the Li family to help.

The lively crowd had not yet dispersed completely, and they saw them carrying the silver out so ostentatiously.

However, no one dared to covet this silver.

It depends on their owner, who is more ferocious than more than 200 bandits.

After watching the excitement, everyone wanted to disperse.

I saw a group of people walking towards this side, with a serious and serious expression.

The crowd that was ready to disperse came over again.

The excitement of the Li family is really endless.

They came, and finally couldn't hold back, and came.

Chapter 90 Accept Xuan'er

"Miss Lu, you must be hungry. You've been late for the whole morning. Let's go in and have breakfast." Madam Li called her lovingly.

She always subconsciously ignored the fact that Miss Lu was a super powerful heroine. She looked very friendly.

Lu Jiuwan just turned around and saw a group of people coming in.

When Madam Li saw these people, her expression instantly became quiet.

She stood still and quietly called the maid next to her, "Take Miss Lu to have breakfast."

She said to the group of people who were walking towards the door, "My dear, why are you here today? Let's talk inside."

The group of people, in front of her was a woman in pink clothes, followed by a middle-aged man, a young man, and several servants.

The woman in pink said in a shrill voice, "No need to go in, Madam Li."

Madam Li's face became uglier. Seeing so many people gathered at the door to watch the excitement, she said, "Let's go in and sit down and chat slowly."

"Madam Li, there's no need to hide. I'm a matchmaker. Everyone knows what we're here for. Just say it here."

Madam Li was prepared, but she was still shocked. She staggered and was supported by Lu Jiuwan.

Since the day Xuan'er was abducted, the Zhou family's attitude towards their family has changed drastically.

Yesterday, Xuan'er came back without even saying hello.

She was prepared, but she didn't expect the Zhou family to be so ruthless.

For the sake of their own face, they chose this time to cancel the engagement in public and deliberately caused such an uproar.

They are pushing Xuan'er into the fire!

"Madam Li, it is my Zhou family who is sorry to the Li family. Today, we are here to cancel the engagement." The middle-aged man behind her stepped forward, apologizing in his words, but his back was straight.

"I said that we would definitely cancel the engagement. We have been dragged up the mountain, how can we still be innocent?"

"Alas, it is also pitiful. The daughter of the Li family is both talented and beautiful. She was originally a perfect match for the eldest son of the Zhou family."

"I said that if it were me, I would rather die than come back. It's embarrassing."

"Oh, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Isn't what you said better than to die?"

The discussion was everywhere, and Madam Li was so angry that her face turned pale.

"You can cancel the engagement, but show me the evidence. Has Xuan'er done anything wrong? If she has done nothing wrong, even if you report her to the government, the engagement cannot be canceled."

Before the man could speak, the matchmaker said in a sharp voice, "At the beginning, I was asked by Mr. Zhou to propose marriage to your family. I did so because your daughter Li Xuan'er had a good reputation, and her appearance and family background were comparable. Now, there is no need to say more about your daughter's reputation."

"You, you!" Madam Li was so angry that she was about to faint.

"The one who looks like a toad? He looks like Li Xuan? Are you blind?"

A cold and contemptuous voice made everyone look over.

As soon as the eldest son of the Zhou family entered the yard, his eyes fell on Lu Jiuwan.

He had never seen such a peerless and charming woman, cold and beautiful, as graceful as a fairy.

He was stunned for a long time, and then he realized that he was really being talked about when he heard countless laughs from behind.

His chest was immediately filled with anger.

"Everyone can see what I look like. Similarly, everyone knows whether a person is innocent or not."

"Zhou Dalang, this person is Lu Nuxia, who just killed more than 200 bandits." Someone quietly reminded.

Zhou Jia Dalang knew that someone had killed the bandits, but he never thought it was this beautiful woman.

For a moment, he was ashamed, angry, and terrified.

Lu Jiuwan: "Who knows, I want to dig it out and see."

She didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but Li Xuan's family was not bad.

Everyone took a breath of cool air.

Zhou Dalang's legs were a little weak.

"I agree to cancel the engagement." Li Xuan'er hadn't slept all night and didn't come out this morning.

Now the servants informed her and she hurried over.

Zhou Dalang saw Li Xuan'er and was reluctant to leave.

Li Xuan'er had a cold personality, but she was very beautiful and talented, and her family was also wealthy, so matchmakers had come to her doorstep.

Unfortunately...

Li Xuan'er didn't even look at him.

"Although I, Li Xuan'er, was taken to the mountains, my innocence is still there. The Zhou family is unfeeling and not worthy of my marriage. I, Li Xuan'er, am here to take the initiative to cancel the engagement."

At this time, Lu Jiuwan strongly felt that this was in the ancient feudal society.

A woman's innocence is a sharp weapon hanging over her head.

It was already evening when the canceled engagement ended.

Lu Jiuwan sat alone at the dining table and slowly ate a sumptuous dinner.

Huairong, that boy, wouldn't he embezzle her money and run away?

Just as she was thinking about it, he came back with a happy face.

"Miss, banknotes." He handed a thick stack of banknotes to Lu Jiuwan.

Lu Jiuwan took it with both hands, accepted it, and raised his head, "Sit down and eat. What did you buy? You came back so late. I almost thought you ran away with the money. I was ready to find you with a knife."

Huai Rong smiled and sat down, "I'm not a fool. Who in Jiangcheng dares to steal the money of a female hero? Are you going to die?"

"Buying things takes time. I have already bought the carriage and supplies. I bought the best and largest carriage. You can sit in it comfortably."

"Are we leaving tomorrow? Where are we going?"

Lu Jiuwan: Where are we going?

She tilted her head and couldn't think of anything, "Can you recommend one?"

Huairong: "... Don't you know where the aunt is?"

Lu Jiuwan shook her head, "I don't know."

"Then just look for it randomly?" Huairong had a headache, "How long will it take to find it if we look for it one by one?"

Lu Jiuwan: "Let's find a comfortable place to spend the winter. Other things will be discussed after the winter."

The weather is getting colder and colder.

The Li family never came out of the room.

Lu Jiuwan was taken care of by the maid and rested.

The next morning, there was a knock on Lu Jiuwan's door.

She opened the door, and the three members of the Li family knelt down in front of her.

Lu Jiuwan:?

"What?"

Mrs. Li was exhausted and tearful, "Miss Lu, please accept Xuan'er, either as a slave or a maid."

Miss Lu has an extraordinary temperament and is good at martial arts. She must not be a lady from an ordinary family.

Moreover, on this day, she met Miss Lu and found that she was easy to get along with.

Xuan'er is like this now, maybe it would be a good place for her to stay with her.

Mr. Li clenched his fists, heartbroken, "Miss Lu, Xuan'er should not stay in Jiangcheng. Even if she never gets married, we can support her for the rest of her life. However, rumors hurt people without leaving a trace, and Xuan'er may not be able to bear it."

They were worried that Xuan'er would be unhappy and become a mental illness, which is the most difficult to cure.

"Miss Lu, as long as you are willing to accept Xuan'er, we are willing to divide half of our family property. We only ask you to accept Xuan'er and treat her well." Mr. Li was afraid that she would not agree, so he added.

Mrs. Li: "Xuan'er has been smart since she was a child, good at arithmetic, and has a high level of understanding. She will never make any mistakes in business accounting. If she stays with you, you will be less worried."

They couldn't take Xuan'er to settle down somewhere else.

It's unrealistic.

Lu Jiuwan looked at Li Xuan'er, who knelt down and didn't say anything.

She knew that her fate had completely changed at this moment.

"Okay, I agree, get up." If Li Xuan stayed here, the ending was doomed to be tragic.

The three of them looked up, their eyes were filled with surprise, and then with extreme reluctance and heartache.

"Thank you, Miss Lu, thank you. Xuan'er, kowtow to your young lady."

A tear fell from Li Xuan'er's eyes, and she kowtowed to the ground, "Xuan'er thanks the young lady."

Lu Jiuwan helped her up, looked at her, and said, "I don't hate people who betray me, because those who betray me will die without any chance to defend themselves. I'll say the same to you, those who follow me must be absolutely loyal."

Li Xuan'er nodded, "Yes, Xuan'er will keep it in mind."

Lu Jiuwan nodded with satisfaction, patted her shoulder, "Okay, stop crying. What's there to cry about? You can come back and take a look when you have the chance in the future."

I heard that I could come back.

The eyes of the three members of the family all lit up.

"Really, is it really possible?" Mrs. Li burst into tears.

"Of course."

Lu Jiuwan said lightly and raised his eyes to Li Xuan'er.

"Li Xuan, ask your father to give you half of the family property. Keep your word."
