Chapter 85

"There's no need to thank you. The things on the carriage are mine, and I'm just helping myself out. However, these people are so curious about the things in our carriage today. It can be seen that they are familiar with us. Although it's OK this time, we must not take it lightly along the way." Yun Xueyao's heart is not careless, When he said this, he raised his eyes and looked at the seal Street next to him.

"I know that. People are ghosts along the way. When we get to the south, we will know."

When Feng Mo heard the speech, he also slightly gathered up the smile on his face.

"Your Highness, it's bad!" as soon as Feng Mo's voice fell, he saw Xie Yao rush over from the front.

"What's the matter, so flustered!" Feng Mo was surprised again, frowned and said unhappily.

"Your Highness!" Xie Yao sighed slightly, calmed down his mood, and then bowed his hands and reported again, "I just received the news from the spies. Now there have been bandits all over the southern city. The officers and soldiers guarding the city have dispersed two days ago, and the bandits have been killed in the city..."

Before he finished, Feng Mo's face changed greatly: "how can this happen? Where do the thieves and bandits in the south come from? Who can have such good skills that can force the officers and soldiers guarding the city to escape and disperse."

"My subordinates don't know. The southern territory is steep and steep. There were many bandits, water bandits and other small gangsters. In the past, when the southern territory was peaceful, they naturally didn't dare to act rashly. Now, under the flood, there are already internal and external worries in the southern city, so they get the opportunity to take advantage of the fire."

Xie Yao wrung his eyebrows and said with worry.

These people are really all pervasive. Now the people here are living in poverty. If there are thieves coming in again, without the protection of officers and soldiers, it would be like a land without people: "now, what about the aristocratic families in the city? Aren't they all daomaoan people? Why are all the people missing? Have they been killed by the thieves?"

"Your Highness doesn't know. When these aristocratic families build their residence on weekdays, they don't have their escape methods. The spies haven't found out their deaths and injuries. I think these things are useful. It's a pity that the people in the city will encounter famine first and then bandits. It's a double disaster."

Now I haven't been to Nanjing city. I had expected that the situation here would be a hundred times more severe than that in the picture of starving victims, but I still didn't expect that this man had not arrived in Nanjing, and Nanjing had been reduced to such a land.

Now, only a few hundred people have been brought here this time. Originally, they wanted to use the imperial edict to deter the garrison here, and did not dare to act rashly, so as to give these people a rest. However, they did not expect that the South was in such a desperate situation at present.

Seeing that Feng Mo's face changed, but he didn't speak again, Xie Yao thought about it and said, "Your Highness, now we are still a distance from the southern city. At present, in this situation, we're afraid we can't enter the gate of the southern city."

"Even if I can't enter the city gate, I have to think of other ways. I'm here for disaster relief, so I won't give up halfway." as soon as his voice fell, his eyes were cold and his face was firm.

This place in the south is remote, and it is also the confidant of the king, but at this time. The city gate was broken by bandits. In this way, Fengmo can't enter the city gate at all. Why do you talk about investigating disaster relief? If it's not a coincidence that bandits enter the city, it's people who suffer for the people. It's always half natural disasters and half man-made disasters.

Seeing that the master had made up his mind, Xie Yao just nodded and thought about it for a moment before he came forward and said, "Your Highness understands what you mean. However, you can't rush into the city. Your highness will send spies to go to the nearby guards day and night. In any case, he will help your highness enter the city gate in the south."

"Take the map!" Feng Mo thought and told Xie Yao.

They spread out the map and looked carefully at the nearest garrison position around the southern border.

The southern border is thousands of miles away from the capital Fengzhou. On the one hand, it is less than 200 miles away from the north of the cloud state. However, the nearest garrison is 300 miles away. It seems that King Yi has not spared no effort in dispatching the garrison in the southern border.

If there is any trouble here, even if he wants to ask for reinforcements, he can handle anything in time after a journey of more than 600 miles.

Now, I am in this circle, and these reinforcements that can be found. I have a shallow friendship with myself. If they come all the way, I'm afraid it's not so easy. If we delay any longer, it will be difficult to see a living creature in the southern city.

It seems that there is another way.

Seeing the other party's hesitation, Yun Xueyao, who has been watching coldly, came forward, looked at the junction with the cloud state, saw the people in front of him and said: "Your Highness, in this situation, if you want to help the soldiers, general Jinling is the closest to here. If you fast horse and Jane follow, you can feel the southern city in two days at most."

"You're right, but general Jinling is from the state of cloud after all. If he doesn't get the order of King Yun and sends troops to other countries without permission, it will be a great crime. Not to mention going to other countries, it's really a big matter. The king won't fall into injustice for his own sake." as soon as Yun Xueyao's voice fell, Xie Yao was in front of him and was about to say thanks, Was interrupted by Feng Mo's decisive words.

"Your Highness has been marching outside for many years. Don't you know that there is a saying that the general's life outside is not acceptable? Now, general Jinling, since he is only a hundred miles away from the south, even if he is not a feudal general, he must have heard about the situation in the south. Besides, general Jinling and I have some friendship. We believe him very much. Although he is fighting on the battlefield For many years, but by no means a cold-blooded and ruthless person. "

It is indeed the best policy to turn to general Jinling. At least in terms of time or the strength of the reinforcements, it is the best choice, but this general Jinling. In the emperor's place, it seems very unpleasant.

Now they rashly introduce general Jinling into the state of enfeoffment. No matter whether the rescue is successful or not, it will certainly cause a lot of trouble in the state of enfeoffment: "Xueyao, I naturally understand what you said. However, even if the Jinling general is not subject to military orders abroad, he still can't rush to send troops to other countries. As a general of the cloud country, he doesn't need to pay attention to the life and death of the people who are sealed off, not to mention the storm this time."

Yun Xueyao understood the concerns of Fengmo, but now things in the South have come to this point. If you want to save the people in the south, you can't care so much.

But at this time in Fengmo, Yun Xueyao was worried about these things: "although the people of this feudal state have nothing to do with the state of cloud, the people all over the world are the same. As a general guarding the people, general Jinling, whether the people of the state of cloud or the people of the feudal state, should be equal to each other. I think general Jinling should understand this."

"All the people in the world are the same?" Yun Xueyao said today. Feng Mo seemed to be impressed. He may be too pedantic: "what the princess said made Feng Mo suddenly open. It seems that Feng Mo is too narrow. Thank you for your advice!"

Seeing that Feng Mo finally put down his heavy burden, Yun Xueyao was relieved. She felt a jade pendant from her sleeve and handed it to Xie Yao in front of her: "I'm going to general Jinling's camp, but it's more than a hundred miles. The general takes my jade pendant and can help you through the cloud state checkpoint. Now you go with Yunjing to explain the situation. General Jinling will help you when he sees this jade pendant. Go and return quickly."

"Thank you for your help. My highness asked the princess." Xie Yao solemnly took the jade pendant from Yun Xueyao's hand, put it away carefully, and thanked Yun Xueyao respectfully. Then he turned over and rode away quickly.

"There is a bazaar not far from here. Are we going to stop at the bazaar or wait for general Xie's news?" Yun Xueyao took a deep breath and suggested to the worried Feng Mo when she saw that Xie Yao's figure had disappeared.
