Dressed as a top-notch girl, leading the whole village to become rich

It's not that she trusts Guard Lu, but she trusts Xu Changqing, and she also believes in the absolute bravery and loyalty of the person Xu Changqing chose for her.

She is not good at fighting, but she knows how to be obedient and not cause trouble.

Liang Yuan on the other side had already brought his men and was fighting with the robbers.

Zijin Mountain is in a dangerous terrain and is surrounded by mountains. There is only one official road between the mountains, making it an excellent hunting ground.

These robbers had just killed a group of refugees a few days ago, but the refugees were too poor, and the bread they robbed was not enough for them to consume.

It is rare to see such a large team today, especially when I saw the dozen full ox carts behind, I thought I had finally caught a fat sheep.

Even if there were guards beside the carriage, they had never done that before and had never robbed a carriage with guards. Most of them were just for show. It would take longer to rob a carriage with a bodyguard escort.

But once they started fighting, they found out they were wrong.

The people under Liang Yuan have been protecting Ye Guo for several months. This is the first time they have the opportunity to show their abilities, so they are particularly brave.

"How come these guys are so good at fighting?" The robber leader roared, narrowly avoiding Liang Yuan's cold knife with his neck. Then he felt a chill on his arm, and blood flowed from the cut arm.

While dealing with Liang Yuan, he ordered his men to break out and capture the woman in the carriage.

Although there were more than a hundred robbers and Liang Yuan had only twenty-seven people, it seemed like a one-sided massacre and crushing.

When the fighting stopped, all the robbers were wiped out.

Except for some injuries on our side, there were no casualties.

Ye Guo ordered Doctor Peng to treat the injured guards. At the same time, he heard Liang Yuan say that she was cleaning up the battlefield and asked her how to deal with the bodies of the robbers.

Suppressing the discomfort in his stomach, Ye Guo looked at the blood-soaked land in the distance. Even the dead grass beside the road was dyed bright red, which hurt his eyes in the sunlight.

"Judging from their attire, they are a group of desperate refugees. They have horses and swords, and who knows how many evil things they have done." Guard Lu said coldly.

His eyes met with Liang Yuan's in the air, and they both saw the fierceness in each other's eyes.

Ye Guo understood this without being told. How could someone who used the corpses of refugees as bait be a truly good citizen?

Ye Guo closed his eyes, his voice as cold as residual blood, and said word by word: "Exposed in the wilderness."

If the knife is not in your own hand, how can you save someone from it? You can do good deeds, but you must protect yourself first.

He understood the principle, but when it came to actually putting it into practice, Ye Guo felt that all his memories of his previous life were collapsing.

Guard Lu and Liang Yuan did not expect Ye Guo to be so decisive. There was surprise in their eyes, but then they quickly felt it was natural.

After cleaning the scene, the convoy moved on again.

Ye Guo's face was pale, his limbs were weak, and he kept asking himself if he was too cruel. Ye An was not much better.

Madam Liu quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat off Ye Guo's forehead, "Why do you have to embarrass yourself, County Lady?"

Ye Guo, who was at the mercy of others, felt his throat dry and said hoarsely, "If you do something wrong, you must bear the consequences. Sparing their lives and letting them harm more people? Commander Liang is right."

Not even anybody was left alive, that's what it means to not be in trouble.

"Yes, yes, yes, Princess, please drink some water first and take it easy." Nanny Liu coaxed.

Ye Guo took the cup and took a sip. After the cold water went down his throat, the nausea in his chest was finally relieved.

"We've been delayed for too long and the water has gone cold. You should drink a few sips first to get by." After saying this, Nanny Liu lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage, giving a few instructions to Guard Lu beside her.

If they hadn't encountered the robbers, they should have found a place to make a fire and cook.

But it was obviously not suitable to stay on the road now, so he could only order the team to speed up.

"Don't worry, Aunt Liu. I'm fine." Ye Guo's heart was in a mess.

Since she entered the book, she has actually been preparing to face death every day. The population of Daqing can be bought and sold, and life is too worthless.

Xu Changqing seemed to have discovered something. When she was in the north, she had never seen a dead body.

Even the people who deliver supplies to them are different every day.

Facing all this now, no amount of words would be of any use. Ye An on the side was also terrified. After he came to his senses, he clung tightly to Ye Guo.

It seemed that only in this way could she get a little warmth from it.

Near midnight, the convoy finally arrived at the post station and took a break.

We also met a homeless child on the road. He was lying on the side of the road, dying. I had no idea how he managed to survive on his own.

Ye Guo asked Liang Yuan's adjutant to feed him some porridge, and he barely survived.

Before, there were women along the way holding their starving babies and begging for food, but Ye Guo turned a blind eye. Now he is willing to help them.

People who followed Ye Guo gradually realized that she was not the kind of person who was kind without any bottom line, and they began to respect her more and more.

In order to allow the guards around them to get enough rest, Ye Guo and his two companions stayed in one room along the way, and this time was no exception.

After washing up and drinking some stomach-warming porridge, Ye Guo went to bed with his clothes on.

"Aunt, I'm very worried about my family." Ye An's voice was low, obviously seeking comfort.

But Ye Guo said, "I can give you people and a car, and let you go first."

Ye An: ...

After a long silence, Ye An's even more muffled voice came, "I won't leave. I'll follow my aunt."

Ye Guo already knew the answer would be this, so he signaled Aunt Liu to turn off the lights, then hugged the thin blanket and slowly fell asleep.

Ye Guo didn't wake up until noon the next day.

Then the memories of yesterday came flooding back, making her feel nauseous.

"Miss, did you drink cold water yesterday and cause gastrointestinal discomfort?" When Aunt Liu pushed the door open, she saw Ye Guo lying on the bed with her hands on her stomach, curled up in a ball.

"Hurry, go and ask Doctor Peng to come over." Nanny Liu shouted to Ye An who was following behind her.

Ye An thought he would continue on his journey today, so he got up early. Unexpectedly, Ye Guo had told him yesterday to rest here for two more days.

No wonder my aunt said that yesterday.

In order to make up for her recklessness yesterday, she went to the kitchen in person. When she heard what Madam Liu said, she ran downstairs.

Then he saw Guard Lu carrying a medicine box, following Doctor Peng and walking towards him quickly.

Most people who practice martial arts have sharp ears and sharp eyes. When they heard Madam Liu's voice, they invited people over without delay.

After taking the patient's pulse, Dr. Peng quickly prescribed the right medicine.

After taking the medicine, Ye Guo finally felt less nauseous. He also drank some white porridge and then fell asleep again.

Fortunately, apart from nausea, there was no high fever.

Otherwise, given how much importance Aunt Liu and the others attached to her health, they would never allow her to travel while she was sick.
