Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 446: The Enfeoffed Land and the Horse
An arrow, extremely thin and short, polished very smoothly, almost hidden in mid-air, carrying a force of tremendous force, attacked her forehead.
Qiao Jian'er had no time to dodge, and Pei Zhujin and Pei Shijiu also caught up with him at this time. They were horrified and immediately reacted by drawing their swords, but the distance was too far, and the arrow was about to penetrate Qiao Jian'er's head.
Suddenly, a white dove flew up in front of her and met the arrow.
The short arrow pierced the white dove's body, stopped its momentum, and it fell to the ground.
A few feathers fluttered in front of Qiao Jianer's eyes, and the crisis was resolved.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is an assassin, defend and pursue him immediately." Pei Zhujin ordered in a cold voice.
A group of figures flashed quickly, surrounding several Arabian horses and keeping vigilant of their surroundings. Another group of figures split into three groups and chased in the direction of the arrows. Their figures were as fast as lightning, some ran on the eaves, some rose and fell diagonally along the wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It looked like they had already locked onto the person and divided them into two sides to prevent him from escaping.
The Pei brothers rode their horses to Qiao Jianer's side.
"Little girl, are you okay?" Pei Shijiu looked at Qiao Jianer carefully.
Just now, at a critical moment, the short arrow came with such force that it gave no chance for anyone to react. I really thought Qiao Jianer was doomed.
A pigeon suddenly appeared and saved her life.
In fact, the two brothers already knew about the goods that Qiao Lian'er took out, and some of her characteristics could not be viewed with ordinary people's eyes.
So it was just a pigeon, they weren't surprised.
Qiao Jianer shook her head: "I wasn't hurt at all, but I'm just curious who's hiding in the dark and trying to kill me."
Pei Zhujin whispered, "During this period, I have had people keeping an eye on the Qiao and Qin families in the capital, and they haven't made any unusual moves."
Especially since Miss Qiao was coming to the capital, he strengthened his defenses to prevent the two families from harboring desires of revenge.
This made Qiao Jianer even more puzzled, because she was the first to guess that it was these two families.
"Could it be someone with vested interests in these two families?"
Pei Zhujin laughed, "Miss Qiao, you underestimate the weight of the word 'Son of Heaven'. During the time when the Pei family was under investigation, all the high-ranking families who had previously had dealings with them avoided us, especially since they knew the Pei family was being targeted and the Emperor had yet to issue a ruling."
"The Qiao and Qin families in the capital have been convicted of stealing military merits. They have already been severely punished by the Emperor. Those so-called old friends and even distant relatives are desperate to stay away."
"Here, the core word is always interests, so don't worry, unless they are from the Qin and Qiao families, or direct descendants of the clan who are directly affected, otherwise, others will not make things difficult for you."
"That's even more confusing. You've already targeted both families, but there's still someone hiding on the road ahead."
Pei Zhujin thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the fiefdom first. If they have any news, they will come back as fast as they can to report it."
"Is there an ambush ahead?" Pei Shijiu asked.
"Probably not. Miss Qiao was attacked here. Whether it was a success or a failure, the other party expected that we would stop and deal with the matter, so the front should be safe."
However, for safety reasons, the following team was strengthened and a number of secret guards were arranged.
As expected, the road out of the city gate was smooth and unobstructed.
Qiao Zhizhi patted her chest. The capital was too dangerous. There were people who wanted to kill people even when she was walking on the street.
Dacheng, however, seemed to have an extra worry on his mind, with a frown on his face.
Outside the capital, there are endless plains, hills at most, and very few high mountains.
So everyone spurred their horses to gallop, and the horses also kicked their hooves, showing their majestic grace.
The city gate was thirty miles away from the fiefdom, and the run was completed in less than two quarters of an hour. Outside the boundary of the fiefdom, there was an iron road sign, deeply embedded in the soil, with a circle of stones piled next to it, which looked very stable.
The sign was painted red with two lines of text: Qingfengyuan, the fief of the Dingxiang County Lord. Trespassers will be severely punished.
There were also a dozen or so Royal Guards patrolling and guarding nearby.
Pei Zhujin glanced at these people, then turned slightly to Qiao Jianer and said, "Miss Qiao, I've been to Qingfeng's original fiefdom before. At that time, it was only guarded by ordinary soldiers, but now it has been replaced by the royal inner army. This shows how much the emperor values you."
Qiao Lian'er narrowed her eyes and looked at her fiefdom. They were now on a hill and could see very far. What was in sight was half plain and half hill, covered with green grass and green trees. It was exactly the terrain in her dreams.
She thought to herself that while the emperor had a good impression of her and valued her the most, she should perform well and win his favor.
Pei Zhujin pulled out a map from his sleeve: "This is a map of Qingfeng's original fiefdom. The terrain, buildings, and rivers are all on it. You can compare it with the actual map."
Qiao Jianer took it over. The military camp building was not far from the river, backed by steep hills, making it convenient for defense.
The military camp was located in the heart of Qingfengyuan, and several people made a special trip there.
The purpose of enfeoffment is mainly to see the camp.
The main camp is a three-story building with black tiles and blue bricks, surrounded by defensive walls and watchtowers. In front is a wide training ground, and around it are large military camps.
Outside the outermost wall of the village, trenches were dug and obstacles such as barbed wire were set up. This was another barrier within the river, equivalent to a double barrier.
All the facilities are much more complete than those of the Guanning Iron Cavalry Station.
Now, the troops stationed in front have withdrawn, and the place is empty. The wind passes through these buildings, making a humming sound, which seems extremely cold and empty.
"Brother Dacheng, do you like it?" Qiao Lianer said.
Dacheng was full of thoughts just now, but when he saw such a camp, his heart suddenly brightened up, no, several times.
The garrison in Qingshui Town was rather simple. He had not expected that the camp could be so majestic and magnificent. Just one look at it was enough to make people feel inspired.
That training ground is more than ten times larger than the Guanning Iron Cavalry base.
"I like it." Even though he had some hesitation in his heart just now, he still couldn't help but blurt out the words.
For those who join the military, a place like this is a dream.
"If you like it, stay."
Dacheng was struggling with mixed feelings and felt very uncomfortable.
"This camp is built according to the scale of 50,000 people. Miss Qiao, I hope that one day you can train an army to defend the capital." Pei Zhujin said.
Qiao Jianer curled the corners of his mouth and rode away: "Let's go and have a look somewhere else."
A group of people rode their horses and galloped around the fiefdom.
Crossing the bridge over the river, climbing over the hills, and passing through the plains, I felt that all the worries were gone, leaving only pleasure and exhilaration.
"Brother Dacheng, take it." Pei Shijiu took a pot of wine from the horse's back and threw it to Dacheng.
Dacheng opened the wine jug, raised his head, and let the mellow wine flow down his throat, feeling extremely proud.
The wind blew up the hair of Qiao Jianer and Qiao Zhizhi, and they smiled at each other.
At dusk, the group returned to the capital. Everyone was sweating and couldn't wait to take a bath.
As soon as he entered the city, two men came quickly to him.
"Young Master, the man has been captured and imprisoned in the Pei family dungeon."
