Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 140 Rong Zhou
"My lord, there are so many of them, you can't beat them, come back quickly!" The woman had already hidden Ruyu in the cupboard, worried that something would happen to Feng Qingyao, she came out of the room and called her from a distance.

Feng Qingyao raised her lips, her watery eyes sparkled with starlight, "Sister-in-law, go to bed first, I think these elder brothers are interesting."

Before the words fell, the dagger was thrown out of his hand, and in a blink of an eye, the man followed him and kicked the bandit on the horse.The gangster had no time to react, was kicked, and fell off his horse with a muffled grunt.

"Hey, you guys still dare to shoot, brothers, do it for me!" The man got up from the ground, shook his shoulder that hurt from the fall, and was about to rush up to grab her.

Feng Qingyao dodged lightly.

A run-up, stepped on the wall, used his strength to fly over the wall, and arrived at the courtyard of the family where the officers and soldiers were staying.

"It's really a trick." The gangster smiled grimly, and waved to his accomplices, "Catch him, don't let him run away!" A group of people rushed in and rushed into the house.

As soon as they came in, they were surrounded by more than a dozen officers and soldiers who heard the sound.

Without further ado, the two groups fought.

The gangsters were no match for well-trained officers and soldiers, and soon they were beaten to the ground and defeated.

"Who are you, and what are you doing here?" The man who was called the lieutenant general asked the question. When he stood up, the gangsters who were robbing houses in remote villages immediately lowered their heads.

"Returning to the official, these people are habitual offenders, who often do evil here and harm the villagers. I also hope that the official will make decisions for the people and detain them and send them to the officials." Feng Qingyao stepped forward and said.

The lieutenant turned his deep gaze to her.

The four eyes met, and she caught the flash of surprise in the other's eyes.

Looking at each other closely, it became more and more familiar to each other.

The other party seemed to see her doubts, and deliberately turned his face away from her, but ordered to his subordinates: "Tie up this gang of thieves, and send them to the local government at dawn."

"Deputy General," the subordinate reminded in a low voice, "We have to hurry back to the capital, isn't it convenient to take them with us?"

"It's okay, you will take two people with you to escort them tomorrow morning, and the others will follow me back to the capital to return. After the matter is completed, you will rush to the capital to join me."

"Yes."

The deputy general went back to the room after giving orders, but the more he was like this, the more Feng Qingyao felt that he recognized her.

Since we know each other, why pretend we don't know each other?
strangeness.

The news of the gangster's arrest quickly spread throughout the village. At dawn, the villagers spontaneously came to see the officers and soldiers off.Although there are not many people in the village, they are crowded together, but it is also very lively.

The woman held Feng Qingyao tightly, "It's thanks to the young master that I was able to catch the thief this time."

Feng Qingyao smiled faintly, and tried to withdraw her hand several times, but to no avail.

Fortunately, the woman only said some words of gratitude this time, and did not mention the matter of betrothing her daughter to her.While everyone condemned the bandits and welcomed the officers and soldiers, she quietly got on her horse and left the village.

Behind him, the lieutenant stared at her figure, not knowing what to think.

After another three days, she finally arrived in Rongzhou.

Rongzhou, the western border of Southern Chu.

Because it is located in the plain, it is a transportation fortress connecting Dali, Shu, Xiliang and other places.Whether it is trade or sending troops to other countries, it must pass through this place, so it has become a geomantic treasure that all countries are vying for.

Xiliang is the most powerful among the many coveters.

Due to successive years of fighting, this place is no longer as prosperous as it used to be.Residents walked and died, only those signboards and cloth banners on the street were left hanging there in dilapidated condition, and some of them could not even recognize their original colors.

The horse galloped past and stopped in front of the garrison camp.

Just as he was about to go forward to report, Hua Banli's voice sounded beside his ear: "City Yuelai Inn, come quickly."
