Chapter 126
Sheng Jiaojiao pointed at the map on the ground with the Yuchang Sword, and said to Niu Ju very sincerely:
"Here, if you want to marry and live a wealthy life, unless you are the main wife of a rich man, otherwise in a place like Nanjun, where there are rich and romantic people and fireworks, you will soon be rejected by the master with your color. Don’t have a delicate mind, and want to live in a family with one acre of land? Then don’t think about it, the one acre of land over there can buy us a village.”

It means that a concubine who is despised by the master is reluctant to part with her land.

What Sheng Jiaojiao said was a bit serious, but it was the truth. Niu Ju was not beautiful, and she didn't know how to seduce men, so there was only one end in the end, being sold out.

A woman who has lost her innocence is finally sold out, either to become a boat prostitute, or bought back by a poor man with a good heart, and become a straight lady.

But the latter is too unlikely.

"Jiaojiao, what is a boat prostitute?"

Niu Ju crouched beside Sheng Jiaojiao, picking up the hem of her skirt that fell on the loess for her.

What a beautiful skirt, what a fabric, Niu Ju couldn't bear to get it dirty.

Sheng Jiaojiao glanced at her, and said angrily:

"After you were kicked out by a big family, you had no place to live, so you could only charter a small boat and do skin and meat business on it, and all the benefactors you picked up were low-grade."

"I, I don't want to."

Niu Ju's face turned pale, and the dress she was holding fell to the ground, she quickly shook her head,
"I'm in Zhishou County. I don't want to marry to South County. Here, I have so many fields. Next year I will become the richest girl on Tiaoma Lake."

That's right, that's right.

Sheng Jiaojiao showed a satisfied smile on her face, but felt a shadow shrouded behind her and Niu Ju.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Tan Ji wearing light armor and holding a sword, standing behind her.

I don't know how much I have heard.

But at this moment, Sheng Jiaojiao and Niu Ju were still squatting on the side of the dirt road.

Sheng Jiaojiao was stunned, got up, straightened the corners of her skirt, and saluted Tan Ji,
"Halberd."

He was still wearing light armor, and he had obviously just come down from the battlefield, and he didn't know what he was going to do.

Tan Ji's dark eyes fell on Sheng Jiaojiao's face, then looked at Nanjun at her feet, and asked:

"The life in Nanzhi is so difficult, is it also related to Jin Guo's restlessness?"

He heard it from beginning to end.

Sheng Jiaojiao was silent for a moment, and said to Tan Ji:
"Jin country is the same as a subordinate country."

Just this one sentence solved Tan Ji's doubts. It turns out that Jin Guo also wanted to go north to occupy Daze, which is why Zhinan County is so chaotic.

He asked again:

"At least Zhinan County will be better than Zhishou County. The people in Zhinan County can farm land, but the people in Zhishou County farm half-dead land."

"But there are more floods."

Sheng Jiaojiao and Tan Ji were back and forth, chatting like this, and Niu Ju, who was in contrast, couldn't get in a word.

Her eyes slipped down and landed on the map of Nanjun on the ground, and she deeply felt that she really had no idea about these important family and country affairs.

Under the changing situation of those gold and iron horses, long spears and silver hooks, it is best for her to respond to all changes without changing.

What is immutable?It is the safest way to follow the wise people closely.

Sheng Jiaojiao is that smart person.

The warm spring sun came out, and the pale golden sunshine spread all over the place.

Sheng Jiaojiao came back to her senses, the three of them had already reached the entrance of Huangtu Village.

She asked Tan Ji,

"Why are you here? Didn't you just take a bath a few days ago?"

"Come to buy medicine with you."

As Tan Ji said, he took out a contract for Jinchuang Medicine, and said very humbly:

"This is an order for Jinchuang Pharmaceutical written by me. Take a look, is it written like this?"

He has never read a book, and all his ink was taught by himself after entering the military camp. This is also the first time he has learned to write a contract. Although the writing is not good, it is better than his seriousness.

So I deliberately took it during the war, and wanted Yang Shengjiao to modify it, and also wanted to tell her that the military camp wanted to order Jinchuang Medicine's patented medicine from her.

Niu Ju yawned, waved her hands, took the donkey rope in Sheng Jiaojiao's hand, and said:
"Jiaojiao, I'm going back to the village first, you talk to your Ji Lang, I'll help you send the donkey back."

As a good sister, Niu Ju will not disturb Sheng Jiaojiao's meeting with her lover.

Sheng Jiaojiao's cheeks flushed, she turned her head to look at Niu Ju, only to see the narrow eyes on Niu Ju's face.

Of course, Tan Ji also saw it, but he pretended not to see it, and only closed his eyes, as if he was here to do business.

Sheng Jiaojiao pursed her lower lip slightly, and glanced left and right. Since Niu Ju left, there was no one around here, and further ahead was the sentry post of the village militia.

She inexplicably felt that she was a bit like a thief, but what kind of thief was she?It's not that she is stealing, she and Tan Ji are aboveboard.

So Sheng Jiaojiao forcibly ignored the throbbing feeling in her heart, opened the contract paper in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

Tan Ji was standing beside her. At first, he just looked at the contract paper in Sheng Jiaojiao's hand, then slowly moved his gaze upwards, his dark eyes stared blankly at Sheng Jiaojiao's side face.

She's pretty, and even more so when she's serious.

However, although it is already spring, the weather in Zhishou County is far from hot. Sheng Jiaojiao is wearing a light blue skirt today, won't she be cold?

"Let's see when we go back to Qi's house."

When Tan Ji reacted, he had already opened his mouth. At this moment, he was full of annoyance, why didn't he bring a cloak when he came back?
Otherwise, I can wrap it up for Jiao Niang now.

Right now, he can only urge Sheng Jiaojiao to go back to the house, at least he doesn't have to stand here to blow the wind.

Sheng Jiaojiao put away the contract in her hand, and followed Tan Ji to the village. Not far away, she saw Ergou from the village army guarding the entrance of the village.

Er Gou showed a very ambiguous smile on his face,
"Jiao Niang, Tan Yichang, when will we get married?"

Sheng Jiaojiao's face turned red again, she turned sideways, half a step behind Tan Ji, covering herself behind Tan Ji's body, refusing to answer this topic.

This meant letting Tan Ji handle it.

Tan Ji felt pity in his heart, and had no choice but to clap his hands and reply:

"The day is fixed, I must invite Lord Dog to drink."

"Hahaha, okay, that's it."

Ergou was very happy. Tan Ji blocked his sight and protected Sheng Jiaojiao as he prepared to enter the village. Then he tilted his head and said softly:

"I never thought you were so timid before."

There was tenderness in his tone, and his voice was low, not to blame her, but a little happy.

The blush on Sheng Jiaojiao's face hadn't receded yet, she gave him an angry look, and walked forward, seeing him following her, she said softly:
"It's not easy for me to speak out about this kind of thing."

Na Zheng is his business, when to Na Zheng, Tan Ji has the final say, what can she say?She shouldn't be calling the shots.

That's it, before Sheng Jiaojiao could finish speaking, Tan Ji's expression froze, and the ground trembled rumblingly.

He stretched out his hand, grasped Sheng Jiaojiao's wrist, and drew out the long sword behind his back with a "shua", looked back at Sheng Jiaojiao,

"Follow me."

Sheng Jiaojiao hurriedly nodded, only to feel that the ground under her feet was trembling more and more, several horses rushed over, followed by a large group of horses.

The militia team patrolling the dirt road moved, and they were intercepting the group of galloping horses.

Tan Ji frowned, judged the form, inserted the sword in his hand back, bent down to pick up a few clods on the ground, and punched some of the horses in the stomach.

It is strictly forbidden to ride horses in Jumping Horse Lake.

Several horses turned over, and someone immediately shouted:
"Bold, the grandson of the emperor is in danger, you will miss a big deal!"

The emperor's grandson is in danger?
Sheng Jiaojiao frowned slightly, were they talking about Yin Ze?Yin Ze is in danger?

A few more horses were turned over by the militiamen, and Tan Ji shouted sharply:

"There are rules in Jumping Horse Lake. No one is allowed to ride a horse here. If there is something urgent, just bypass the village."

Because there are people living nearby, and a dirt road connects three villages, it is easy to bump into people if you ride a horse on this dirt road.

If a galloping horse bumps into a child running around, its iron hooves can crush the child into a pulp.

Moreover, the fierce horses are galloping too fast, without a flag on their backs, who knows whether it is an enemy or a friend. If these horses are allowed to rush into the village, how can the old, weak, women and children in a village have a place to fight back?

In just a few moments, a large group of militiamen rushed forward and stopped all the horses.

Someone on the other side got up from the ground and said angrily:

"If the emperor's grandson makes any mistakes, none of your nine clans will be punished enough. Get out of the way, and we're going to mobilize our troops!"

"Without a military order, none of your soldiers can move."

Tan Ji was still holding Sheng Jiaojiao's wrist through Sheng Jiaojiao's sleeve, his brows were drawn together tightly, and as soon as he spoke, Er Gou and others who surrounded the visitor moved out of the way.

The other party said fiercely to Tan Ji:

"Presumptuous, what kind of thing are you? All the soldiers in this world belong to the royal family. If you say you can't adjust it, you can't adjust it?"

There was a burst of laughter in the militia, and someone pointed at Tan Ji and said loudly:

"What do you think he is? Hahahaha~~"

Without Tan Ji's order, not only the official soldiers, but even the militiamen would not be able to move in this jumping horse lake.

Because no one knows the eldest grandson of the emperor, all the people here only recognize Tan Ji.

Behind Tan Ji, Sheng Jiaojiao moved a little closer and said in a low voice:
"Ji Lang, the other party has Yin Ze's private emblem on his body, and he is Yin Ze's guard."

In fact, it was because Sheng Jiaojiao knew the speaker, his name was Wang Biao, and he was one of Yin Ze's personal guards.

In his previous life, when the killer slaughtered Huangtu Village, Wang Biao died.

Tan Ji turned his head slightly, listening to Sheng Jiaojiao's words, and seeing Wang Biao surrounded by a large group of militiamen, he angrily took out a token, and said angrily to Tan Ji:

"Look clearly, this is the emperor's grandson's token. Seeing this token is like seeing the emperor's grandson himself. Quickly let me go to gather reinforcements, or you will be punished."

"He is bluffing. He has no right to kill the Jiu Clan. To kill the Jiu Clan is a serious crime. It must be done with the emperor's imperial pen. It's not that he said he would kill the Jiu Clan."

Sheng Jiaojiao whispered behind Tan Ji again, making Tan Ji's serious handsome face almost unstoppable.

He squeezed Sheng Jiaojiao's slender wrist with a little force, lowered his head, held back his smile, then looked up at Wang Biao, and said coldly:
"Please tell me in detail where you are, what happened, how many people are on the other side, and how many casualties you have suffered? Gather heavy troops to guard the two nobles, and you can't easily transfer troops. If you are far away from Tiaoma Lake, you can go to the south to collect the wing commanders." Dispatch troops."

Since the other party was indeed Yin Ze's guard, Tan Ji didn't make things difficult on purpose. After all, Yin Ze was still a Tian family. If something happened in Zhishou County, Zhishou County wouldn't be able to walk around.

Unexpectedly, Wang Biao didn't appreciate it, put away the badge, pointed at Yin Ze and said angrily:

"Aren't you very good? Take someone with me now."

The militiamen around were all quiet, did this person know what he was talking about?
Tan Ji cupped his hands and said:

"I can't go. The battle in the north of the county is urgent. Please explain the situation clearly, and I can immediately guide you to a clear path."

Outsiders may not know much about the military system of Zhishou County, not to mention that Tan Ji doesn't know Yin Ze's token at all, even the chief soldier of Zhishou County is probably not familiar with Yin Ze's token.

There is no other reason, but because the military system of Zhishou County is self-contained, sometimes the king of Zhishou County may not be able to mobilize the soldiers of Zhishou County.

Especially now, when Zhishou County does not provide even a single grain and grass, the basic counties will fight in the north of the county, those in the upper set will keep the upper set, and those in the southern set will guard the southern set
Naturally, Tan Ji also knew that if things continued like this, there would be trouble sooner or later, but he had no choice but to take care of the [-] soldiers and several hundred militiamen under his command first.

Now, superfluous things really can't be done.

For saving lives, you can go to Nanji to deploy troops. As long as Wang Biao is willing to explain the specific situation, Tan Ji will immediately send someone to inform Nanji Yichang, and ask Nanji Yichang to fully cooperate in saving people.

"You are presumptuous. Is it true that the emperor's grandson's life is at stake in the whole world, but you are pushing back and forth, and I am in vain for the people of Daze!"

Wang Biao cursed angrily. He knew what Nanji was. Nanji was located behind Tiaoma Lake, and it was currently the most prosperous and stable place in the north of Zhishou County.

However, there are not many soldiers in Nanji, there are [-] places, but the most is the last battalion, about [-] soldiers are stationed in Nanji, and none of them are elite.

It can be said that in fact, all the elites of Zhishou County are already in the north of the county.

Wang Biao wanted to borrow soldiers, so naturally he wanted to borrow the most powerful soldiers.

As soon as he said this, Tan Ji frowned and before he could speak, Sheng Jiaojiao sneered and said:
"It is indeed in vain for the people of Daze. Since the provocation by the vassal state, how many good men in our Zhishou County have died in battle, and the emperor has given half a grain of rice? How? You want people to work hard, but you don't give any benefits? How can there be such a thing in the world? A good thing to wait for?"

"You! Who?"

Wang Biao's chest heaved in anger, and he stared at the azure skirt behind Tan Ji.

"It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is that you, a dog slave, don't have an attitude of begging for help. You want to save your master? People who don't know think that you are making revenge for your master! What are you? ? So who sent you to kill the emperor's eldest grandson?"

"Nonsense, presumptuous!!!"

"How can this be called nonsense? Everyone here is watching. Have you ever had the attitude of begging for help? On the contrary, it seems that you are here to ask for debts."
