"Just tell me what you think. If it's too difficult, I will consider it!"

Fan Jihuai said, "It's not difficult to deal with the prince's misunderstanding, but I'm afraid that speaking out will pollute everyone's ears!"

The King of Qi was stunned at first, then he laughed, "Really? Let me see what special request you have that makes it so difficult for Fan the Thief to speak!"

Fan Jihuai closed his eyes and rushed out, saying, "Aunt Qiao said that she doesn't want any other rewards. This year, disasters have occurred everywhere, and the border is resisting foreign enemies. The court must be in a difficult situation and it is not easy. She won't add to the chaos.

As long as the prefect allows her to build a public toilet on every street in the city for everyone to use for free!"

"puff!!!"

“Cough, cough, cough!”

"cough!"

What kind of weird request is this?

Everyone present thought that the Qiao family might want money, power, and enormous wealth, but no one expected that they would actually make such an incredible request.

Fan Jihuai knew that everyone would have this reaction as soon as he said this. It was the same reaction he had experienced when he first heard about it!

Fan Huairen asked in confusion, "Why is this?"

“Auntie Qiao said that, firstly, it was to centrally dispose of filthy things, reduce the spread of diseases by mosquitoes and flies, and make the area around Weizhou Prefecture more livable; secondly, it was to collect fertilizer for the more than 2,000 acres of wasteland in Laohu Town.

The crops all depend on manure. Farmyard manure is essential if you want to increase production and income. When the time comes, they can hire a few hardworking refugees to help manage and transport the night incense to Laohu Town."

Magistrate Wu still couldn't believe it. "Has the land in Laohu Town really been tidied up?"

"It's all settled. Today, I went with Master Wan to measure the land. We signed the deed on the spot. The Qiao family alone has 1,113 acres. The average for each of the other families is at least 30 acres."

Not only have they been tidied up, but the relevant roads have also been repaired and the canals have been opened. Crops have already been planted in some areas!"

Fan Jihuai felt a little unbelievable, "So fast!"

"Laohu Town is no longer the same as it used to be! Aunt Qiao must have her reasons for planting seeds now. Father, don't forget that Aunt Qiao is also an expert at predicting the weather!"

Fan Huairen looked dazed, and couldn't help but think of Qiao Xin's accurate prediction of the weather on the way back last year!

Now, the most difficult person to understand about the Qiao family is this leader!

Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. The King of Qi decided to go and see for himself. Qingyang Academy was there, and he knew what it meant to His Majesty. If the place where Qingyang Academy was located could be restored to its former glory, it would be a relief for his brother.

The next morning, the King of Qi led his guards, Prefect Wu, Fan Huairen and others to Laohu Town! They wanted to see the changes in Laohu Town for themselves. Prefect Wu originally wanted to increase the guard of honor and clear the road to ensure the safety of the prince.

But the King of Qi wanted to go on a private tour in disguise, and didn't want to disturb the people with a big fanfare. If he put on a big ceremony here, I don't know how those old-fashioned people in the capital would report him.

A group of people had just climbed over the hill and saw the smoke from cooking in the distance. On the road sign next to them, the words "Laohu Town" were written in a vigorous manner. They had just left the official road and were about to cross the river.

A group of masked men with knives suddenly rushed out from the mountain road next to them. Without saying a word, they rushed directly towards the King of Qi. The guards reacted very quickly and immediately protected the King of Qi and the prefect in the middle. The other party's knives were aimed directly at the vital points, leaving them no chance of survival.

The two groups soon started fighting each other!

The King of Qi was shocked. He did not expect that these bandits would be so bold in broad daylight. While watching the battle, he was thinking about how to deal with it.

Seeing the black weapon used by the opponent, my heart couldn't help but move.

"Could it be them?" the King of Qi thought to himself.

The guard leader stood in front of King Qi and whispered, "Your Majesty, we need to leave here as soon as possible. There are so many enemies. We should not delay too long."

The King of Qi narrowed his eyes, drew the soft sword from his waist and started to break out, reminding the guards around him: "Form a formation to resist the enemy, the enemy is a rebel, beware of their archers."

"What rebels? Your Majesty, are you sure?"

Prefect Wu was trembling with fear, but he did not dare to throw away the knife in his hand. With the help of his servants, he followed the Qi King's troops, fighting and retreating. He was groaning in his heart!

What is going on? The rebels are trying to assassinate the prince, and they appear on his territory. If anything happens to the prince, His Majesty will skin him alive!

Fan Huairen was also extremely anxious. He was protected by Fan Jihuai behind him. He kept dodging. Fan Jihuai was too busy to protect his father while dealing with the enemy's attacks. He gradually fell into a disadvantage!

But no matter how difficult it is, he has to grit his teeth and hold on. Even if he dies here today, it is better than the prince being killed here. Otherwise, their Fan family will be doomed!

Little did he know that a sharp arrow was flying towards his back at an astonishing speed.

"Swoosh~ Ding~"

The arrow was shot down!

It was beyond everyone's expectation! There was actually a third force hidden here. The scene froze for a moment, and no one dared to act rashly.

A man and a woman walked out of the woods, both wearing hunter's clothes and holding a large bow. It was obvious that the arrow just now was shot down by the other party!

I only heard a woman saying, "Hey, what are you doing? Fighting in front of someone's door? You really don't respect me, your master! I'm not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble, so why do you come to me every day for trouble?"

When Fan Jihuai heard this familiar voice, he was overjoyed and shouted quickly: "Auntie Qiao, I'm Fan Xiaoer!"

Qiao Xin: "Oh, Master Xiao Fan, is that you? What happened? Who hurt you like this?"

"Auntie, my father is here too, along with Magistrate Wu and the prince. We are here to look for you today. Please help us, Auntie. The people on the other side are rebels wanted by the imperial court."

Qiao Xin was delighted and asked loudly, "Is there a reward for catching them?"

"Yes, yes, yes. They are all wanted criminals by the imperial court. Don't worry, the rewards are substantial."

It's good to have it, so that her work won't be in vain! As for the good reputation of getting rid of harm for the people, it's not as real as real money!

Qiao Xin turned to Qiao Yunqing and said, "Son, I'm not looking for trouble. They've come to your mother's doorstep, so we have to respond, right? These rebel bandits are killing each other all day long, and I can't even farm my land!"

Qiao Yun turned away and didn't want to pay attention to her, but now that their identities had been made public, they really couldn't let the King of Qi make any mistakes here. He then said, "Be careful, I'll cover you!"

"Okay!" Qiao Xin fired three arrows at once, with a fierce attack and the momentum of thousands of troops, heading straight for the bandit leader. The first arrow was blocked by the opponent, but he was forced to retreat a few steps. The second arrow followed closely, piercing through the right shoulder and hitting the soldier behind him.

The third arrow was aimed at the opponent's chest.

Fan Jihuai hurriedly shouted: "Auntie, don't kill him. He is not as valuable dead as alive!"

Qiao Xin paused and aimed at the other person's thigh!
