Chapter 368 Black River City
"My dear daughter! She is so domineering, worthy of being the most noble princess of Dayu!" The emperor was overjoyed.
"As long as you eliminate that scourge, the people's hearts will naturally return! I will then make you the Protector of the Nation Princess!"
"Thank you, father!" Princess Mingzhu suppressed the sarcasm in her eyes.
waste!
Who wants to be your princess who protects the country!
I want to be the queen of this country!
…
Princess Mingzhu was going to Heihe Village, and the emperor asked Concubine Shu to accompany and take care of her.
Even if Concubine Shu was extremely unwilling, she couldn't refuse.
The emperor was worried that someone might harm Princess Mingzhu on the way, so he asked them to travel in secret, but Princess Mingzhu was unwilling.
"I will make this known to the whole world, so that the higher she climbs, the harder she will fall!"
The princess and the concubine's trip was such a big event that the palace was busy with it for a while.
Half a month later, Princess Mingzhu set off in a grand manner in a golden carriage, accompanied by Concubine Shu.
…
Heihe Village.
Heihe Village has been extremely busy lately.
From the second day after Fan Jie Qiang arrived in Heihe Village, people who had fled from the capital began to arrive one after another.
The village entrance is always crowded with people who have left their hometowns.
Some are calling for daddy, some are calling for mommy, some are saying they are hungry, some are saying they are tired...
It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land outside the gate of Heihe Village was filled with people.
These people had nothing except the belongings they brought with them.
Where do you live?
How to settle down?
The village head's already thin hair became even balder.
Fortunately, the weather has turned cooler, and there are not as many guests in the inn as before, so many rooms are vacant.
Xiao Jiuer asked the elderly, children, women and children to stay in the inn first.
Some of the others were temporarily taken in by the refugee village, and the rest were taken in by people from all over the country.
The accommodation problem has been temporarily solved.
Then solve their housing problem.
The land previously dug out for the refugee village is no longer enough.
The villagers led these people to dig the mountains, make mud bricks, dig foundations, and build houses.
Fortunately, the first batch of refugees have settled down. With their help in taking care of these new arrivals, the villagers of Heihe Village have saved a lot of effort and worry.
After everyone discussed it, they decided to hollow out the mountain near the female teachers' school.
As they dug, they found a connection with Jingwan Village.
The villagers of Jingwan Village were overjoyed. Their ancestors had appeared and they had finally become one with Heihe Village!
The other villages suddenly saw hope, and joining Heihe Village was just around the corner!
It goes without saying that more and more people will seek refuge in Heihe Village, and the territory of Heihe Village will expand countless times. Sooner or later, these villages will be incorporated into the embrace of Heihe Village!
Everyone is busy that day.
Suddenly, the villagers on guard on the city wall shouted: "So many people! Countless people!"
The villagers suddenly became excited, "Are Yan Ping and the others back?"
They had heard about the riots in the capital a long time ago, and figured Yan Ping and the others should be back by now.
"Look carefully, it's Yan Ping! And the Master!" the villager on duty shouted.
With a "whoosh", the villagers swarmed over to meet them.
"Great, you're finally back!"
In the distance, Ye Yanping and Zhao Xingjian were galloping towards them on horseback, followed by a large group of people that stretched as far as the eye could see.
"Folks! We're going home!"
"We've accomplished our mission!"
There was genuine joy on both of their faces.
"Yan Ping!"
"Master!"
Everyone jumped for joy.
Thinking that they could not neglect the peasant army behind them, the villagers ran over.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work! Welcome to Heihe Village!"
"From now on, I'll treat this place as my home!"
"It's not hard at all! I'm so happy!"
"I've accomplished great things following Yan Ping and Master!"
The peasant soldiers were so excited when they looked at the towering city walls!
Heihe Village, they are finally here!
Their ancestors had all been farmers working hard in the fields, but two months ago they suddenly joined Yan Ping and the others in a rebellion.
The key is that they directly attacked the capital city. I have never been so powerful in my life!
Although it seemed like an escape along the way, in fact, we didn't suffer any hardship at all.
We continued to expand our team slowly along the way, neither getting tired nor hungry.
"Daddy! Master!" Little Jiuer sat on Ye Yan'an's neck, jumping for joy.
"My daughter!" Ye Yanping carried her onto the horse's back and kissed her hard a few times, "You miss daddy so much!"
Zhao Xingjian came over and touched the little girl's head. "Master, I miss Xiao Jiu'er too! Master, I brought you a gift. I'll give it to you when I get home!"
"Okay!" Little Dumpling looked around, "Huh? There's one person missing!"
"Hawkeye didn't come back with us. He said he met someone he knew in the capital and would be back in a while."
"Okay!"
Fan Jie Qiang squeezed over and was stunned when he saw the long weapon in Ye Yanping's hand.
"So, you were the one who broke through the gate of the capital that day?"
"You were just disguised at that time?"
"Did you actually plan the riot in the capital?"
"Yes!" said the little dumpling proudly, "Let me tell you, we are going to - rebel!"
"Rebellion?" Fan Jie Qiang staggered in shock.
Oh my God!
What would happen to his sister if the rebellion in Heihe Village succeeded?
If the rebellion in Heihe Village fails, what will happen to his little Jiuer?
…
Ye Yanping and Zhao Xingjian brought back 60,000 peasant soldiers.
The peasant army's mission was to fight against the imperial court, so they urgently needed to improve their combat effectiveness.
It just so happened that the imperial guards who were repairing the temple had finished repairing it.
Xiao Jiuer asked someone to go up the mountain to find Lao Qiu. Lao Qiu brought the imperial guards down the mountain. From then on, they were responsible for training these peasant armies.
Lao Qiu and the imperial guards were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. This was much more comfortable than staying in the palace and being someone else's slaves!
Heihe Village and Jingwan Village were connected, and that area became the peasant army's military camp.
There was no time to build a house, so Xiao Jiuer took out a military tent from the space, and everyone built it in one day, solving the accommodation problem of the peasant army.
As for the food problem, Xiao Jiuer has plenty of it in her space.
The army has been established, and the first batch of weapons are being produced in full swing.
All the blacksmiths in the surrounding area joined in, and the rebellion was no longer a secret.
If one day the imperial court sent a large army to attack, Heihe Village would naturally not be afraid, but the villages in the surrounding area would be in danger.
Xiao Jiuer notified the heads of all the villages and asked the surrounding villages to build a long and solid wall on the rural road.
The ten villages are completely isolated from the outside world.
Villagers were arranged to stand guard on the city walls day and night.
The two city walls faced each other from a distance, and when they encountered the enemy, they lit fireworks as a signal.
From the moment the city wall was built, the ten villages became a family sharing weal and woe.
The villagers took the initiative to connect all the villages, and ten villages were connected into one city.
On the city wall are engraved the words written by Zhao Xingjian - Heihe City.
"Black River City?"
The golden carriage stopped outside Heihe City. Princess Mingzhu looked at the words on the city gate and smiled contemptuously.
"How can such a shabby place be called a city?"
"Open the city gates! Princess Mingzhu has arrived! Little Jiuer from Heihe Village, come and greet her!"
