Traveling back in time to a female virtuous novel, she was forced to make money to support her famil

In the thatched pavilion, a girl wearing a red dress elegantly held a dagger that shone with cold light.

Her eyes revealed a sharp intelligence, as if she could see into a person's heart.

"Prince, there are people in the court who bully your colleagues and act recklessly."

Banjin handed over the letter in his hand, with anger in his tone.

Longcheng is close to the border of Xining Kingdom. If the county king hadn't single-handedly driven the Xining people out of the border, how could those people have lived a stable life now.

Ruan Jing read the contents of the letter at a glance, with a hint of contempt and disgust in his eyes.

"It's these clichéd words again, so why don't you change it with something new? Go and inquire in the forest, and if you have any news, report it immediately."

The ministers in the court only kept an eye on the Ruan family, and they didn't know what kind of evil ideas they had in mind even though everyone knew about it.

The cold wind blew away the letter in Ruan Jing's hand.

There was a sudden explosion in the forest, startling the birds in the forest.

Flocks of birds flew over the thatched pavilion, like black clouds covering the sun.

"Come out, you're not tired after hiding for so long."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man with a sword came quickly from the air.

A cold light appeared in Ruan Jing's eyes. He quickly avoided the sword attack and quickly used his fan blades to block it.

"What a flying feather sword. It's as thin as a cicada's wing. It seals the throat of a person with blood. The people behind the scenes are so generous. They actually invited the second-ranked killer in the world, the Blood Finger, to kill me."

One Blood Finger was wearing black clothes embroidered with tea flowers, holding a sword and still maintaining an attacking posture.

When he heard the words "number two on the killer list", he frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with the words "number two".

Ruan Jing became interested. She turned over the fan blades and lifted up the mask of Yi Xue Finger, wanting to see what this famous killer in the world looked like.

However, Yi Xue Finger reacted extremely quickly and easily dodged Ruan Jing's attack, and the Feiyu Sword in his hand started to dance again.

"It is rumored that people in the Jianghu never interfere in court matters. Is the First Blood Finger trying to break this precedent?"

One Blood Finger's eyes flickered, and he felt that the person in front of him was really noisy.

He is a killer and he doesn't care about breaking the rules in the world.

Ruan Jing talked for a long time, but he didn't even say a word in reply.

She couldn't help but wonder to herself, could it be that the top killer was mute.

Yi Xuezhi didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore, so he used the Feiyu sword in his hand to attack.

His movement skills are strange, and his strikes are decisive and ruthless, leaving no room for error.

The killer learns all the first-rate killing moves, without too many bells and whistles.

Ruan Jing's fighting style is fierce, and every move is open and closed, which is the same as the moves commonly used in the army.

For a moment, the two were evenly matched.

As the two of them were crossing each other, Yi Xuezhi suddenly took a few steps back, put his Feiyu sword into its sheath and was about to fly away.

Ruan Jinghai maintained his offensive posture, a little confused, "Are you going to leave?"

Aren't you here to kill her?
Are killers in the world so unprofessional?
One Blood Finger gave her a strange look.

This girl is so strange. I was just wandering around and wanted to try the sword in my hand. I didn't expect her to be in such trouble. She wouldn't have shown up if I had known about it.

Ruan Jing watched helplessly as Blood Finger left.

How could such a neglected scene feel so familiar?

When Banjin came back, he saw the prince in a strange posture.

Could it be that the prince was practicing some powerful kung fu? He suddenly felt like he had discovered the truth.

"Prince, the man has been captured and is in the forest."

Ruan Jing put away his fan blades as if nothing had happened.

She actually recognized the wrong person, and she knew that idiot had no ability to hire such a killer.

"Walk."

On the way to Taihuang Mountain, Mu Yan followed the instructions in the letter and finally arrived at his destination.

She gently shook the bell hanging on the tree. In less than a cup of tea, a group of people carrying supplies appeared in front of her. "Are you the people sent by the county king?"

The leader was a woman in her 40s, not tall and even a little fat.

She replied respectfully: "That's right, Hu Biao has met the county magistrate."

Mu Yan smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to support her, "No need to be polite, the situation in Longcheng is difficult now, and we still need your help. Thank you for your hard work on this trip."

Hu Biao was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the image of the county magistrate would be so different from the rumored image.

It was rumored that the Longcheng County Magistrate was ruthless and had a high self-esteem, but now it seems that she is so approachable.

"It is our duty to serve the people."

Legend has it that the relationship between the county magistrate and the king of Donglong County is very bad. It seems that this is not the case. Hu Biao restrained his mind and did not dare to think any more.

Mu Yan took out a token and handed it to her, "When you arrive at Taihuang Village, give this token to Su Jishan. She knows what to do."

Hubiao put away the token, no longer delayed, and led a group of people to set off for Taihuang Village.

After the people left, Ruan Yu, who was hiding behind the tree, came out.

"Sister actually sent someone to help?"

During this period, the two of them fought every few days. He really thought that they were at odds, but it turned out to be false.

Mu Yan explained, "Although the princess is sometimes inconsistent, she is never ambiguous on important matters."

Ruan Yu naturally knew her sister's temperament, but she didn't expect Miss Yan to speak so highly of her sister. It seemed that their relationship was really good.

Even so, he would be relieved.

"Then why do you always fight?

Mu Yan touched his nose uncomfortably. It was really pretending at first, but later he got used to it.

Sometimes it's so easy to develop a bad habit.

Looking at the young master's sincere eyes, she couldn't say anything deceptive.

"Because we like to fight."

Ruan Yu was stunned for a moment. Do girls like to use force to enhance relationships?

Before he had time to think about it, Mu Yan had already picked him up and walked forward steadily.

Ruan Yu was a little dizzy. Why did he feel that ever since he and Miss Yan had connected, Miss Yan always liked to touch him?

Although he enjoys such contact, sometimes he can be unbearably shy.

Looking at the young master with slightly red cheeks and a wandering mind.

Mu Yan knew that he must be thinking of something weird again.

The situation in Taihuang Village is much more severe than imagined.

There was cold wind in the houses everywhere. The villagers were in ragged clothes and shivering from the cold. Some people had even caught the wind chill.

When Mu Yan and Ruan Yu arrived, Su Jishan had already ordered people to cook porridge and distribute supplies, but this was just a drop in the bucket and could not fundamentally solve the problem.

Before coming here, Mu Yan had surveyed the terrain of the farmland and learned that farmers in this era could only harvest once a year.

After paying heavy taxes, they had very little food left.

The villagers of Taihuang Village were once invaded by mountain bandits, and the previous county magistrate also gave up on governing them, causing their lives to fall into trouble.

Looking at the thin, sallow children, Mu Yan felt emotional.

She suddenly thought of Huai'an. If they had not taken Huai'an away, the little one would have experienced the same suffering.

Although the official status of the county magistrate is not high, the power in his hands is enough to help the people.

To help the villagers tide over the difficulties, we first need to solve the tax problem, but this is only the first step. It will be even more difficult to help them return to normal life.

Ruan Yu witnessed these tragic scenes, and he immediately devoted himself to helping the villagers without taking a rest.

For his own safety, Mu Yan ordered his men to follow him.

Although there is not much danger here, be careful when sailing.
