Exiled after the marriage? My elder sister sent me to the throne!
Chapter 86 Deserter Massacre
Yeah.
Lu Ce doesn’t have to die!!!
Jiang Qiu became happy.
Compared to the love between the male and female protagonists, she cares more about the people around her.
Jiang Qiu then said with disdain: "Why hasn't he ascended the throne yet? Otherwise, he could have granted amnesty to the whole world by marrying a wife... um..."
Jiang Qiu, whose mouth was covered by Lu Ce, knew that his old habit of speaking without restraint had come back again.
Jiang Qiu blinked his eyes to indicate that he would not talk nonsense anymore.
Her eyes were watery. Lu Ce looked at them and was slightly shocked. He subconsciously let go of her hand and hid his palm behind his back, pretending to be disgusted: "Fortunately you are not in the court, otherwise I would have to clean up your mess all the time."
Little did he know that his words would come true.
Jiang Qiu covered his face and bowed to apologize: "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay. Your voice wasn't loud, so others didn't hear you. Just be more careful in the future. The Fifth Prince is getting married, and his wife is the daughter of the Minister of Rites. The day chosen must be an auspicious day, which must have made many newlyweds a little depressed."
As soon as the words fell, a young man was heard crying, "My beloved little lady!"
Everyone laughed when they saw how miserable he was.
Lu Ce pulled Jiang Qiu away: "We have to hurry up and buy ingredients."
Jiang Qiu stretched his head back.
I want to see a play.
And suddenly I thought that if Lu Ce fell in love with Jiang Rourou, the probability of them being together would be much higher.
boom--
A little beggar bumped into them.
A letter was placed in Lu Ce's hands.
Lu Ce and Jiang Qiu looked at each other.
Lu Ce hid the letter in his sleeve and went to the alley with Jiang Qiu to open the letter.
The sender of the letter was someone they had never expected - the Prime Minister's wife!
She expressed her concern for Lu Ce in her words, and also said that if Lu Ce was willing to do something extraordinary, she would be willing to pay at least 500,000 taels of silver.
The so-called out-of-the-ordinary things...
It's rebellion!
"She is so brave." Jiang Qiuru was struck by lightning.
Lu Ce folded the letter and said, "The Prime Minister's wife has always wanted to train her daughter to be the queen of a country, so that she can enjoy unlimited glory in the future. Now that the Fifth Prince can no longer marry your elder sister, he will choose someone else who can make his daughter the queen."
"Ah?" Jiang Qiu didn't understand.
"Why is she so obsessed with the queen? Does she know how much of an impact the opposition will have on her family? Is she willing to put her entire fortune and life on this? What if she makes the wrong bet?"
Lu Ce: "This letter doesn't mean anything. Five hundred thousand taels of silver is indeed a huge loss for the Prime Minister's wife. If she succeeds, I will be in her hands, and she will be the master of the world."
Jiang Qiu: "Do you think she would send this kind of letter to many people?"
"Yes, this is inevitable!" Lu Ce analyzed for her: "The current situation is turbulent, His Majesty is really brainless, neglecting state affairs, indulging in women, and the forces in the court are complicated and confusing. There will definitely be a war between the royalists and other forces, and many of them will have other ideas.
The Fifth Prince is one of the representatives, but now he has fallen out with the Prime Minister. It is possible that the Prime Minister also wants to be in charge. Even if he does not take charge, the two will most likely fall out. Then they will definitely continue to fight, and everyone hopes to have more chips in their hands.
My father has great prestige in the army. If they win me over, even if I can't do anything for them now, just my willingness to cooperate with them, under my name, can persuade my father's former subordinates to talk.
The five hundred thousand taels of silver were not wasted. No matter how strong they are, this is a sure win. That's why they came to me. My reputation is too great. If they really lose, they can use me as a scapegoat and say that I am unwilling to become a commoner and become an object of sacrifice. "
"Do they think so much?" Jiang Qiu was shocked.
"Yeah." Lu Ce sighed slightly, looking at her confused, he teased: "What a naive child."
"Get lost!" Jiang Qiu rolled his eyes at him in annoyance. "Come on, go on, go buy some things. We're doing a big purchase this time, don't delay us."
The two men treated the letter as air. When everyone was asleep that night, they burned it with a fire, letting it disappear from the world to prevent anyone from using it as a handle.
But it was also because they got up in the middle of the night that he felt that the frequency of the swaying of the tree shadows on the mountain was a little strange. Lu Ce stared for a few seconds and quickly took Jiang Qiu's hand, "There are bandits, let's go!"
Jiang Qiu hurriedly followed Lu Ce.
The officer was alarmed and learned that bandits were coming. He quickly banged the gong vigorously: "Bandits are coming, run away."
They only get that little salary, so how could they risk their lives for them? They are the ones running in the front.
It was impossible for everyone to carry away the things purchased from the town as they were too cumbersome. Jiang Qiu took a look at them reluctantly. The food that cost nearly a hundred taels of silver was gone.
Lu Ce also took a look.
There were cries of killing on the mountain. The refugees who were running slower saw it and shouted, "They are deserters. They have weapons."
"Deserter?" Lu Ce narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the more than fifty people running towards him, let go of Jiang Qiu's hand, and faced them head-on.
Lu Mingyue also went.
Lu Pandi couldn't help but shout: "Mingyue."
"Don't be afraid, just watch me perform." Lu Mingyue saw that their chassis was unstable and they were staggering when they ran, yet they dared to come and act like robbers.
Virtue!
There was dried blood on the machete, it seemed that he had killed a lot of people.
What a joke!!!
The uncle and nephew worked together to solve the problem effortlessly. The people who were fleeing felt quite complicated. Lu Ce had been killed in the mountains before, and he had killed many assassins, so they knew how powerful he was.
But after witnessing with their own eyes how he could deal with so many people effortlessly, their admiration for him deepened. Thinking of how he had once fought on the battlefield, it was no exception. However, everyone felt that it was a loss for all the people in Dongliang to lose a patron saint.
"Come back, everything is fine. Bring a group of young and strong men with me to bury their bodies on the mountain to avoid scaring the passers-by." Lu Ce said.
They saved so much money and their lives, so no one refused to do this small thing. Basically, they went up the mountain to dig a hole and buried them.
Luo Yunchun wiped his sweat and asked Lu Ce: "Where is this deserter from? Why did he run here?"
"They are most likely under the command of King Cheng'an. This large number of deserters may have been exploited, or they may not be satisfied with the army's allocation. You see, they are fat and strong, most of them may have been deserters for a while. Let everyone know that deserters are more lethal than bandits, and the weapons in their hands are sharper than those of bandits, so it is easier to rob them."
"Really? Look at them, they are stronger than me. Damn it. They should help the people of Dongliang, but they turned their knives on the people."
Compared to being killed by bandits, Luo Yunchun hated being killed by deserters even more.
"There are no well-established rules and regulations." Lu Ce said. There were also people who would make trouble in his father's business, but because the system was there and the distribution was proper, the number of deserters was the least in the entire army of the world.
