With Lan Yunxiao's help, the remaining more than 100 bandits were quickly eliminated, and a large amount of looted property was also brought back by them.
Among them were quite a few things that were the luggage of Bai Chi and his team, and these things were returned to their original owners after they were delivered.
As for the other property, the people in the Miao village accepted it with a smile and regarded it as part of their reward.
The guards didn't care. It was good enough to be alive. If they could go back alive with the young prince, the reward would be even greater.
However, the captain of the guard found letters exchanged between the bandit leader and foreign countries in the bandit leader's room.
However, the captain of the guard did not make it public. After returning, he found Bai Chi and another officer hiding in the guard team alone to report the matter.
This official is the real main force behind the investigation into the corruption and bribery case, Lord Wang from the Dali Temple.
The little prince’s biggest role is to attract attention in a high-profile manner and draw people’s attention to him.
We originally thought it was just a simple case of corruption and bribery, but now it involves other countries abroad. Obviously, the nature has changed.
Bai Chi dipped his finger in the tea and wrote three names on the table.
Those were the names of the three traitors.
The captain of the guards was horrified: "Young Prince, are you saying that these three people are suspicious?"
Bai Chi shook his head.
However, before the other two could be reassured, he continued, "It's not that they are suspicious, but that they are spies from the enemy country."
The captain's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "How is this possible? This person was personally selected by His Majesty."
In fact, strictly speaking, all the guards were selected by the emperor himself, but these three were specifically instructed by the emperor to protect the little prince when they set out.
That's all.
But he can be considered quite special, after all, he is the one favored by the new emperor.
Bai Chi smiled helplessly: "I can only say that it is too coincidental."
If Bai Chi didn't know that after the original owner's death, the empress dowager died of shock and the emperor fell seriously ill and was usurped, he would have suspected that the emperor did it on purpose.
The fact is, it's all just a coincidence.
It can also be said that this was the original owner's inevitable fate.
The captain of the guard quickly calmed down and asked calmly:
"Young Prince, what should we do now?"
Bai Chi took out the letter he had already written and said, "Everything remains the same. Pretend you don't know anything. After you leave the Miao village, send this letter back to the capital."
We should remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances. It's a good opportunity to see what the bandits will do next after their failed robbery.
If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps we can uncover more spies and strongholds from other countries.
After all, if one wants to capture the most favored young prince of the Taichu Dynasty and use him to control the new emperor, this is the only chance.
It was called a discussion, but in fact it was just a unilateral arrangement. After Bai Chi finished speaking, the captain of the guard was still a little worried.
"Young Prince, isn't this too dangerous?"
Bai Chi smiled brightly: "With Yun Xiao accompanying me, how could there be any danger?"
As he finished speaking, Lord Saint Son just came in from outside. He had been waiting outside the door so that Bai Chi could have a private conversation with the captain of the guard and Lord Wang.
Maybe I had been waiting for a long time, so I just came in.
The guard captain and Lord Wang's expressions suddenly changed.
Just now, outside the bandit's den, this Miao saint controlled hundreds of poisonous insects by himself, and even caused various snakes, rats, insects and ants nearby to crawl out of the ground and crawl towards the bandit's den.
If this person is with the little prince, they really don't have to worry about other people threatening the little prince's safety.
But they are worried that this Holy Son will threaten the life of the young prince!
In just one day and one night, they learned from other villagers how cold-blooded and moody the Holy Son was.
I don’t know if he heard their thoughts, but I saw the Holy Son take a few steps closer and then stand still, staring at the captain of the guard and Lord Wang with his dark eyes.
There was no extra emotion in his eyes, as if he was looking at two lifeless objects, which made people feel creepy and cold on the neck.
No, my back is really feeling cold!
They both turned their heads and saw two poisonous snakes with triangular heads hanging from the eaves.
That chilly feeling was the snake's tongue touching the back of their neck!
At this moment, the two men turned their heads and were instantly face to face with two snakes. The scarlet snake tongues were almost touching their eyebrows as they moved in and out.
The distance was too close, so close that if the two snakes attacked them, they would have no chance of escape!
Big beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and the cool breeze outside the window made his face pale with cold.
"Yunxiao," Bai Chi said helplessly, "Don't scare them."
"Um."
The Holy Son responded and slowly walked towards Bai Chi. The two snakes quickly returned to the eaves and disappeared into the darkness.
The captain of the guard and Lord Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they were instantly exhausted, as if they had been to the gates of hell.
Seeing him standing next to Bai Chi at this time, he looked harmless except for his cold expression. His handsome appearance even made it easy for people to let down their guard.
Who could have imagined that this man could control so many poisonous insects and snakes without making a sound?
"Okay, you guys go down first. Have dinner and have a good rest. We will leave the Miao village early tomorrow morning."
Bai Chi started to drive people away, but the captain of the guard was still a little worried.
"Young Master, we..."
He stopped talking before he finished, because the Holy Son, who was originally looking at the incandescent figure beside him, suddenly turned his head with a cold look in his eyes, just like the two poisonous snakes just now.
Bai Chi reached out and held Lan Yunxiao's hand.
In just a moment, the look that seemed to come from hell disappeared, and was replaced by joy like melting ice and snow.
Of course, the change only occurred when he turned around to look at their little prince.
Bai Chi asked the two to leave again.
The captain of the guard and Lord Wang looked at each other. Although they didn't know what the situation was with this Lord Saint, they could see that he was very obedient.
At least they listen to their little prince.
As a result, the two of them felt a little relieved.
After the two left, Lan Yunxiao picked up Bai Chi and left without saying anything.
Bai Chi screamed and Xiao Hei in his arms almost fell out.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, putting one arm around his neck and the other hand to protect Xiao Hei in his arms.
"Yunxiao, we haven't eaten yet. Let's eat first and then go back."
He stopped instantly when he was about to go up the mountain, then turned around and walked towards the largest stilt house in the village.
If I'm not mistaken, that should be the village chief's house?
"Yunxiao, I want to take a shower, is it convenient?"
"That's convenient. I'll have someone boil some water."
"Just let Xiao Xunzi prepare it. He has served me for many years and knows my preferences best."
"No! Don't want him."
The Holy Son has always been a man of few words, but Bai Chi is obviously not one of them.
