The whole family escaped from famine and accidentally occupied land

Wei Liu glanced at Wei Li and said, "He has the same name as our eldest son."

After saying that, he took the indenture contract and went to find Wei Hongmian.

The names they signed were all real names. The incident happened suddenly, and these people glared at Bai Jingzhi.

Wei Li was lucky enough to know that the person in front of him was his cousin. After they were safe, he revealed his identity and tore up the contract, which had no effect on them.

Fortunately, these indentures were not registered with the government, so everything could be resolved privately.

Bai Jingzhi didn't know what Wei Li was thinking. After she dealt with these things, she turned around and discussed with Wei Liu what would be the most reasonable way to say it.

After she left, Wei Li finally had time to talk to Jiang Lan.

"Prince, aren't you going back to Yanzhou? Why are you here again? What happened?"

It was almost dawn when Wei Li discovered that Jiang Lan and his group had appeared.

They should have been heading towards Taiming Mountain, but they turned back at this time, which meant something unexpected must have happened that they were not aware of.

"The cavalry that just entered the city was chasing us." Jiang Lan pounded the ground. "If we hadn't sensed it in advance, we would have been killed by their swords."

"Hunting you? Your identity has been leaked?" Wei Li was shocked. If so, they could not follow him into the city.

I can’t let my cousin’s family get implicated.

Wei Li had this thought in his mind and was about to back out. "Why don't I just send you back to Yanzhou, even if I have to take a detour."

"It's not that my identity was exposed, but those people used the guise of sending envoys from the capital to kill all the refugees heading to Yanzhou."

Jiang Lan had a sad look on his face. "Those innocent people were beheaded while they were still asleep. Some of them were even children."

With Jiang Zhu fighting in the front, the King of Yan protected the Crown Prince very well.

At the same time, it also cultivated his compassionate character.

Wei Li had long been accustomed to life and death, and no longer had excessive sympathy for insignificant people.

Some of the people around Jiang Lan have bad intentions.

Before these carriages and horses appeared, they always kept their eyes on the food.

After they separated, these people still wanted to stay with Jiang Lan and eat and drink for free.

These were said by the servants around Jiang Lan, and they were not exaggerated at all.

They came over from Yanzhou to meet up, and then those people left and went to the gate of Lianzhou city to wait for porridge.

These people who fled famine tasted the sweetness of life and had no intention of working at all.

Some honest people have sold themselves in order to survive.

Wei Li had disliked that group of people for a long time, and their disappearance did not cause any ripples in his heart.

Jiang Lan saw his reaction and laughed at himself, "Why am I telling you this? You've killed as many people as they have."

"Prince, I——"

Jiang Lan stopped him, "Forget it, I know you and Azhu are the same kind of people, no need to explain."

Born in a royal family, killing seems to be their destiny.

Now he can only try to accept it.

Otherwise, his position is unstable.

"The roads to Yanzhou have been blocked by them. It is safer to return to Yanzhou from Yuzhou now."

Jiang Lan did not say anything specific about what happened last night, and stood quietly in line.

Ignoring the expression on his face, his appearance is still pleasing to the eye.

Bai Jingzhi no longer paid attention to them. "Sister Yue'e, what happened?"

"Yes, the team at night was going to hunt down the refugees heading to Yanzhou. Prince Li changed his mind and only allowed them to go to Wujiyuan."

Zhou Yue'e was very powerful, and coupled with the constraints of the indenture contract, the people who were with Jiang Lan soon revealed their true colors.

They were able to escape the disaster because they were alert during their sleep and heard the sound of horse hooves.

These people were experienced in many battles. They immediately knocked Jiang Lan unconscious, carried him on their backs, and ran away through a shortcut, directly to the place where refugees gathered at the city gate.

"An order from the King of Li?"

"Yes, King Li ordered people to guard the only way to Yanzhou City, and there are also people guarding Taiming Mountain."

Zhou Yue'e has already found out everything, and in any case they can only go to Wujiyuan.

Bai Jing's heart moved slightly, and the corners of her lips slowly curled up. King Li gave her another help.

We were worried about the population before, but now we don’t have to worry about it anymore, which is good.

After Wei Liu finished his work, he came over and called, "Jingzhi, come here."

The incident just happened suddenly, and Wei Liu is just now sorting out his thoughts.

"What are you going to do with the people on King Yan's side?"

"Let it sit for a while, and then sell it for a good price."

Bai Jingzhi didn't care. Since she had the Prince of Yan in her hands, she would not suffer any loss.

"That Wei Li, is it... is it him?"

"Yes, I'm just a little stubborn, hehe~"

Bai Jingzhi noticed Wei Liu's expression out of the corner of his eye. It was not bad, and his reaction was not excessive.

"I don't ask him to be very powerful, as long as he can pass on the Wei family's incense."

Wei Liu looked at Bai Jing meaningfully, then walked away with his hands behind his back.

"Old fox!" Bai Jingzhi spat lightly and walked to the front of the team.

They were only five meters away from the group.

They had two plans before.

The first plan was to pretend to be refugees. They had passes to the entire Dazhuang Dynasty and could go anywhere.

Even if Prince Li came, no one would dare to stop him.

The second option is to pretend to be a traveling merchant.

Now we can only implement the second plan, because the other people who joined later in the first plan do not have the certificate.

"Don't be nervous, don't let any clues slip." Bai Zhao's hands trembled slightly, but he still patted his daughter's back.

"Dad, they don't dare to kill the refugees at will at this time, don't worry!"

Bai Jingzhi comforted him in return.

The soldiers at the city gate asked them as usual and when they learned that they were merchants, they looked up to them.

A man who looked like a general came over and said, "You are a brave girl, going out to collect the goods at this time."

"General! These people are the slaves she bought. Unfortunately, she is not experienced in the world and did not buy any goods from Lingzhou, but she bought dozens of people instead."

The soldier on the side curled his lips in disdain.

"There's war going on over there. There's nothing we can do but buy some servants and take them back. They'll be safe along the way."

Bai Jingzhi had a smile on his face and answered in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

"It's good for them to think like this at such a young age. Well, let them go! Put the seal of approval on them."

The general had a gentle look and warned Bai Jingzhi, "The little girl is about the same age as my daughter. It's really not easy."

After saying this, the man left.

"You are really lucky. The commander has said that you can move freely in the area under the jurisdiction of King Li."

The soldiers issued them passes, indicating the number of people and other belongings, and allowed them to pass.

They went from the east gate all the way to the north gate without any obstruction.

At most, we just counted the number of people and didn't make things too difficult.

The study room of Prince Li’s Mansion.

Mr. Qian was waiting at the door at this moment, feeling confused.

After Prince Li let him in, Mr. Qian returned to normal.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you sent people to stop the refugees going to Yanzhou? This is a very good move!" Mr. Qian praised generously, "If Wujiyuan becomes better, we can take it over."

"Ha, I didn't think of this. I sent someone just because I don't like King Yan~"

Prince Li stopped talking halfway through.

The two chatted for a while and then Mr. Qian took his leave.

Only after returning to his residence did Mr. Qian's shoulders relax.

"Master Zhu, you really miscalculated this time!"
