Chapter 4369: Poor mountains and evil waters create troublesome people

I don't usually think of it, but I can think of Xiaozhuang, who doesn't know

his life or death at this time, and think of the little two who are trapped in

Maocheng, the toddler and Shui Yijun, Qian'er is anxious.

Unable to resolve her emotions, she slammed a punch on the table, closed her

eyes, and slowly exhaled.

The five knuckles broke and bleeds.

This heart-wrenching pain calmed her emotions.

At this point, she was caught in a mood of self-blame and remorse, and it was

of no avail.

She tore off a piece of cloth, wrapped the wound on her back, poured a sip of

cold tea, and tried to cheer herself up, recalling the military books she had

read, as well as the emperor's uncle and father's army formation. Methods.

She thought, if the child and Shui Yijun were also trapped in Maocheng like

Xiao Er, she could only lead these five thousand people.

She must not be timid anymore.

The whole day passed in a fairly calm atmosphere.

In the evening, Xu Qing came back with injuries.

Of the 20 imperial soldiers who were brought back, only 17 returned, and half

of them were wounded.

Qianer was shocked.

This Xu Qing is the commander of thousands, ranks among the generals of

hussars, is the highest rank among the five thousand forbidden troops, and the

best in martial arts.

Qian'er let someone distribute the wound medicine first, and after Xu Qing

treated the wound, he called him over for questioning.

"How did you do it with someone?" she asked.

"I met a bunch of unsophisticated people, and there was a little conflict." Xu

Qing was frustrated. "The strange Taoist said that unreasonable people came

out of poor mountains and bad waters. This place in southern Xinjiang is

really hell!"

Qian'er frowned: "General Xu, I only want you to track down the murderer. How

come you clash with the name of the local village?"

"Princess, the humble job is indeed going to track down the murderer, and

found a town where those gangsters guarded the door and didn't let us in. This

is obviously a harbour, maybe the whole town is all accomplices!"

"The whole town is an accomplice? Do you have real evidence?"

"Humble job thinks..."

"Do you think?" Qianer interrupted him, "General Xu, the investigation is for

evidence. In this situation, refugees, bandits, sick people, and rebels are

everywhere. These people are united, It’s understandable to not let people

in."

"However, someone saw those murderers enter the town with their own eyes!"

"I said, after you find the clues, don't act rashly, come back and discuss

with me first. Why did you fight with the villagers?"

"During the negotiation, my brothers didn't hold back their temper for a

while, quarreled a few words, and then started to fight... These

unsophisticated people are quite fierce, so I lost three brothers, this

hatred..."

Qian'er said angrily: "General Xu, do you still feel that you are not wrong?

Ordinary people, who dares to conflict with the errand? You must have done

something excessive! It is not true to recruit!"

"Princess, the humble post really didn't do anything, just to get into the

town. The gangsters had a tough attitude, and the brothers didn't hold back

their temper for a while..."

"Then I ask you, how many villagers did you kill?"

Including Xu Qing, the 20 imperial soldiers brought with them all had some

martial arts.

Not to mention wearing armor and weapons.

Even if they were all seriously injured, the situation of the villagers can be

imagined.

After Xu Qing came back, he only pushed all his faults on the villagers

without mentioning their injuries. Qian'er knew that the situation would

certainly not be lighter.

Sure enough, Xu Qing froze for a moment before telling the truth: "Only 20

people were killed or injured..."
