Along the way, thinking of the man in blue whom he had just met, Luo Fanjin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"So this is actually a world of cultivating immortals. How interesting!"

Her eyes were moving, and her young face revealed a unique charm.

The carriage headed westward towards the city, and everything that had just happened seemed to have become a passing cloud.

An hour later, she finally arrived at the nearest city.

"Madam! Why did you come here alone?"

At the city gate, a team was ready to go, as if they were going to greet someone.

Commander Wei Dong saw the carriage speeding towards him not far away and the emblem on it, and immediately recognized the person coming.

After Luo Fanjin arrived at the city gate, he did not get off the car, but said to Wei Dong, "Where is your city lord?"

The tone was a little fierce, and such an expression on the face of a ten-year-old girl was quite imposing.

"The city lord is feeling a little unwell today. Let's wait for him for a while before setting off."

Looking at the aggressive Luo Fanjin, Wei Dong lowered his head unconsciously.

"Uncomfortable. It's the perfect time for him to feel uncomfortable!"

"Let your city lord come to see me!" she said sternly.

"Yes!" Wei Dong responded quickly, and then sent someone to summon the city lord.

About a quarter of an hour later, a middle-aged man in official uniform came out of the city gate in a hurry.

"My Lady, I am sorry for being late in welcoming you!"

Looking at the middle-aged man with disheveled clothes, as if he had just put on his official uniform, Luo Fanjin knew that this was the lord of this city.

"Do you admit your guilt?" Luo Fanjin stood on the carriage with his hands behind his back, looking down at the city lord.

There were not many people outside the city gate. Occasionally, a few merchants passed by, but they just looked at them for a few more times and then hurried into the city.

Ordinary people don't want to get into trouble, and seeing so many soldiers at the city gate, one can tell at a glance that an important person has arrived.

The city lord blinked, then looked up at Luo Fanjin in confusion and asked, "I was ill, so I was late in welcoming the lady. I admit my guilt!"

In a word, he took all the blame on himself, but it gave outsiders the illusion that Luo Fanjin did not know right from wrong and was trying to accuse others.

"You are good at speaking, but I won't let you fool me!"

"What your majesty said was unclear. I really don't understand what I did wrong!" The city lord quickly protested.

"Humph! I haven't had peace since I came to my fiefdom. I just encountered robbers on the road and all my guards were killed. Fortunately, I was able to survive with the help of others. But you were too late to greet them and missed the time, allowing this disaster to happen. The bandit leader confessed before he died that this matter was related to you!"

The words suddenly rang in their ears like a bolt from the blue, and the soldiers who came to greet them were all stunned!

The city lord planned to assassinate the queen? This is too incredible!

"My lady, the city lord has always been diligent in handling government affairs, and he has been doing his best to welcome you into the city. It is impossible for him to..." Wei Dong hurriedly spoke for the city lord, and other officials nodded repeatedly. For them, the credibility of the city lord, who they have worked with for many years, is naturally much stronger than that of a new lady!

Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, Luo Fanjin said softly, "Whether he did it or not, we'll know after the interrogation. There will be no lies under torture!"

Luo Fanjin said this with great confidence, but he had no idea how terrified the city lord was after hearing these words.

"Madam, this matter has nothing to do with me! I am innocent. Are you planning to torture me into confessing?" The city lord hurriedly defended himself.

"Stop talking nonsense. If this matter has nothing to do with you, what are you afraid of? Besides, harming me is a crime punishable by the death of all nine generations of your clan. You wouldn't dare to do that!" Luo Fanjin didn't listen to his explanation at all and acted as if he had nothing to fear.

As soon as she finished speaking, soldiers came forward to arrest the city lord.

Luo Fanjin was very arrogant and didn't even listen to his explanation. Now, the city lord suddenly didn't know what to do.

He had heard that the princess was unfavored, had no ambition, was gloomy and not good at speaking.

But now the situation is completely different. Is there something wrong with the source of the information, or is this princess hiding herself?

Without time to think deeply, the city lord closed his eyes and knelt down as he looked at the soldiers who were walking towards him, eager to seek credit and reward.

It was ridiculous. Luo Fanjin was a princess and she came to her territory. These people, for some reason or other, did not know the rules and only performed superficial etiquette, but no one knelt down.

The city lord's kneeling frightened the other soldiers and officials so much that they also knelt down hastily.

"I know my crime! The repeated attacks on you on the road were indeed related to me, but I was not the instigator. There was actually someone else behind this! Please forgive me, my lady. I am willing to take all the blame on myself. I only hope that you can let my family go!"

"You are very smart. You know that this matter cannot be concealed, so you confessed it. In this case, I will forgive you the crime of killing all nine clans, and only spare your life!"

As for the real mastermind behind the scenes, you are talking about Princess Heze," Luo Fanjin said immediately after his words.

The city lord suddenly raised his head and said in disbelief, "How did you know that?"

"Do we still need to guess about this matter? She will be the biggest beneficiary after I get into trouble. When the fiefdom is put aside, she will definitely take the opportunity to seize it. Unfortunately, I am lucky enough to come back alive! Her wishful thinking will eventually fail!"

Luo Fanjin held his head high with an unparalleled look of arrogance on his face.

"Someone, take this criminal away. I want to interrogate him carefully!" Luo Fanjin didn't want to talk about things at the city gate. She threw the horsewhip into the hand of Wei Dong who was standing there in a daze, and got into the carriage. Soon her voice was heard from the carriage.

"Return to the city!"

The smooth movements caught people off guard. Wei Dong blinked and immediately ordered his men to take the city lord away. He then sat outside the carriage and drove for Luo Fanjin.

With the coachman, Luo Fanjin finally relaxed a lot. She leaned in the carriage, but her brain did not stop thinking. Instead, she was analyzing the next layout.

The name of this body is Luo Fanjin. She is a princess of a small country in the mortal world. The country is called Xia. It is weak and surrounded by powerful enemies.

She is ten years old this year, and her title is Fanjin. She came all the way from the capital to such a remote place more than a month ago, not for anything else, just because this is her fiefdom.

Although the Xia Kingdom was weak, it had a small population and a large land area, and it actually developed the rule of gender equality. Women could be officials and do business, so that all princesses in the country had certain inheritance rights.

After a princess turns ten years old, she will have her own fiefdom. This fiefdom will only be owned by the princess while she is alive. Once she dies, the fiefdom will be taken back and wait to be redistributed or rewarded to other princesses.

This time, the original body brought more than a thousand people from the capital, but when they were about to arrive at the fiefdom, there were only more than ten people left. This was because they had encountered robbers many times. How could the bandits who dared to rob the princess be ordinary people?

Princess Heze was the most suspicious candidate, because her fiefdom was closest to hers and the two had been at odds when they were in the palace. Therefore, Luo Fanjin believed that the original body's repeated robberies and murders must be related to Princess Heze.
