The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"Joining the Green Turban Army may be their only way to survive now, because at least they won't have to worry about starving to death after joining the Green Turban Army."

Jia Daoshi nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the other party wasn't angry and even spoke up for him, the man who had just spoken was dumbfounded.

He had already prepared himself to be killed.

But the other party not only didn't make a move, but also agreed with him.

Jia Daoshi smiled slightly and said to Ji Bingyan, "Now you can understand what I'm saying, right?"

Ji Bingyan remained silent.

The Empress's move to increase taxes was indeed a mistake.

Big mistakes.

This undoubtedly gave the Green Turban Army an opportunity to grow stronger.

If this problem isn't solved, even if the Green Turban Army is wiped out, there will still be Yellow Turban Army, Black Turban Army, Red Turban Army...

"In my opinion, the court's tax increase cannot be solely the Empress's problem. Some high-ranking officials in the court are also implicated. It's time to investigate when we get back."

Based on Jia Daoshi's understanding of Ji Wuxin, although this woman was very ambitious, she was not so foolish as to be this incompetent.

Some high-ranking officials in the imperial court were certainly involved in this.

"The people's demands are actually very simple: to have good food, nice clothes, comfortable housing, and happy customs. If these four things are achieved, how can the world not be at peace?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Bingyan's body trembled slightly: "That's right!"

There was a pause.

"Jatis is right. Once this mission is complete, it's time to purge the court!"

"Jatis, we hope you can take good care of us on the journey ahead. We also hope you can lead us!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Daoshi immediately rolled his eyes!

"Hey! That's not how you become a hands-off manager. I came here to help you. You can't just lie around and do nothing, can you?" Jia Daoshi said, somewhat speechless.

"Humph!"

Ji Bingyan snorted coldly: "What, you're making things so difficult just because I'm asking you to put in a little more effort? At most, I'll give you some extra benefits!"

"That depends on what kind of benefits it is! These past few days, I've been riding in the carriage, and my back and waist are aching, and my strength has decreased a lot!" Jia Daoshi said with a smile.

Looking at Jia Daoshi's smug expression, Ji Bingyan felt a surge of hatred and wanted to bite him.

For some reason, Jia Daoshi always felt like teasing Ji Bingyan when he was around her.

But Ji Bingyan did not respond to Jia Daoshi's provocation. Instead, she secretly vowed to squeeze this guy dry tonight!

"What should we do?" Ji Bingyan changed the subject. "There must be a lot of refugees here. We can't let them join the Green Turban Army, nor can we suppress them by force!"

Jia Daoshi sighed and said, "That's easy. You can send a message back now by hawk to report to the Empress and ask her to select capable officials to bring food and supplies here for disaster relief."

"that's all?"

Ji Bingyan hesitated. Judging from the villagers' previous fighting strength, if they only brought food, they would probably be robbed.

"Of course, it can't just end like this. Those who should be killed still need to be killed. Some refugees are now no different from the Green Turban Army. The deterrent effect of force is necessary."

Jia Daoshi's words are very objective; this is reality. Some people change and can never go back.

Human nature is inherently evil.

"Furthermore, I think we need to speed up our journey. The real culprit is still the mastermind behind the Green Turban Army."

In Jia Daoshi's view, this mastermind behind the scenes was definitely not simple.

How could someone capable of integrating the Sun Moon Cult and the Flowing Heaven Palace be simple!

Only by dealing with this guy can the southwest region truly achieve peace!

Actually, the problem here is very simple, and Ji Bingyan can understand it as soon as she thinks about it. However, she had thought about too many things before, so she did not think of this point. After Jia Daoshi helped her unravel the mystery, she quickly came to her senses.

"Alright! I'll send a message to the Empress right away and do as you say."

Ji Bingyan acted immediately.

Not long after we got back into the carriage, a hawk flapped its wings and flew out of the window!

Actually, Ji Bingyan felt somewhat lost on the way here.

All she knew was that the purpose of this trip was to deal with the mastermind behind the Green Turban Army.

But she was completely clueless about how to deal with it, how to handle the situation, and how to deal with the problems in the southwest.

She didn't even know how to find the mastermind behind this!

But Jia Daoshi's words just now made her thoughts gradually clearer.

This Jia Daoshi is simply a treasure of a man!

Perhaps this guy has already figured out how to find the mastermind, but he just hasn't told me!

The thought of how despicable and wicked this guy made Ji Bingyan's heart ripple with unease.

Ji Bingyan, on the contrary, is now looking forward to the night coming sooner!

Thinking about the wonderful things involved, Ji Bingyan felt much better.

……

The villagers were very hostile towards the Blood Droplets' group. To avoid any accidents, Ji Bingyan decided not to stay overnight in the village, but instead left the village and came to the edge of a small grove.

This doesn't mean that Ji Bingyan was afraid of them.

If any conflict breaks out at night, these villagers will definitely be the ones who die.

However, Ji Bingyan did not want to cause such unnecessary killing.

There is a small lake here, and the terrain is very flat, making it perfect for camping.

The Blood Droplets are seasoned travelers who often spend the night in the wild, so setting up tents is a piece of cake for them.

Soon, a bonfire was lit by the lake.

The campfire was lit by Jia Dao using the lighter he brought with him.

This exquisite object left Tianlang, Guarjia Musen, Bubajia, and Houjia Shisan speechless!

They just couldn't understand how a metal box could ignite a flame!

It’s incredible!

Ji Bingyan knew about Jia Daoshi's lighter.

Or rather, it's become commonplace!

Of course, apart from the ignition step, everything else was done diligently by the few flying guillotines.

Jia Daoshi was happy to enjoy his leisure time; having subordinates made life quite comfortable!

After the fire was lit, Sirius went hunting in the nearby woods.

Bu Bajia went to the lake to catch fish because he had heard that the chief had recently taken a liking to eating fish.

If this were modern times, Bu Bajia would definitely be a very qualified sycophant.

They went into the lake to catch fish without even taking off their clothes, saying they were afraid of offending the chief.

Soon, two wild rabbits, a wild deer, and seven or eight roasted fish were placed on the fire.

But at that moment, a group of people suddenly appeared outside the camp.

This group of people are from the martial arts world, and they're here to find someone!

"Who are they?" Ji Bingyan asked.

"Reporting to the head of the household, they are the Seven Heroes of Southern Xinjiang! And also Mr. Poison!"

Having traveled the martial arts world for many years, Xueji was naturally familiar with people from all walks of life and recognized the other party's identity at a glance!
