This place was on a high mountain. When Yu Jinshu looked down, he could only see the imperial city in flames.
The fire illuminated the entire imperial city. She looked carefully, identified the location, and found that her Baoyi Palace was already on fire.
The State of Jin is finished, it's all over now.
According to the book, her three brothers were killed by the Wei army.
The remaining royal family members have long lost their influence over the past hundred years.
The book also says that the emperor of Jin was the most useless. Since he ascended the throne, he only knew how to endure humiliation and seek peace in the face of bullying from Wei. He made no achievements in either politics or military affairs.
The nine provinces of the world were originally divided into three kingdoms: Qi, Wei and Jin.
Qi was originally the most powerful country. Twenty years ago, it was destroyed by Wei because it trusted treacherous ministers.
After Wei conquered Qi, its national strength increased greatly.
Jin was originally a small country, and its emperor did not know how to govern the country, so it was only a matter of time before the country was destroyed.
Perhaps it was because the fiery wind blowing from the imperial city was too hot, Yu Jinshu felt that the wind in the mountains was not very cold, but it allowed her and Yue Tao to sleep well back to back.
At daybreak, the fire in the imperial city was extinguished.
Yu Jinshu woke Yuetao up, and the two of them packed up and set off down the mountain.
They went down the mountain in the opposite direction of the imperial city, which was originally the royal hunting ground.
Fortunately, the Wei army's butcher knife did not come here.
There is a small wooden cabin in the hunting ground, with a charcoal fire and some food inside.
Originally, there were people guarding this place, but when the Wei army arrived, everyone here ran away.
The Wei army would arrive here sooner or later, so Yu Jinshu quickly found something to eat in the cabin, and took a bag of flour and a bag of dried meat.
The jewelry in her belly was very heavy, so Yuetao was responsible for carrying flour and dried meat.
Fortunately, there is a map in the system.
Yu Jinshu looked at the map inside and went to the most remote area, but he must not go to the town.
Now the 200,000-strong Wei army has entered the capital, and the towns and cities are full of Wei soldiers. If you go there, you will only be killed.
What excited Yu Jinshu was that she found a carriage in the hunting ground.
If the horse hadn't neighed at that moment, she would have almost run away.
Having a carriage is convenient, but I still can't put down the jewels in my belly, so I have to continue pretending to be pregnant.
After Yue Tao put the flour and dried meat on the carriage, Yu Jinshu asked her to take everything she could from the cabin, including quilts, charcoal, and pots and pans.
Yu Jinshu was a "pregnant woman", so naturally she could not drive a carriage.
Yuetao had no experience, so Yu Jinshu taught her until she could sit in the carriage.
The carriage passed through several villages, and all the villagers were killed by the Wei army.
How miserable!
Even though Yu Jinshu was a person who traveled through a book, he couldn't help crying when he saw such a tragic scene.
Since the Wei army had just attacked the city, it was not possible to leave the capital.
Yu Jinshu planned to find a remote village to settle down first and leave the city after the situation stabilized.
Fortunately, we brought some flour, charcoal, and quilts.
Everyone in the village died and the houses were empty, so Yu Jinshu found a separate woodshed and lived there.
This stay lasted for more than a month.
Yue Tao went outside the village to gather information and came back to say that the Wei army had taken over the capital. She also said that the Wei army was no longer killing people and was even trying to appease the people.
Be a ghost first, then be a human.
As time goes by, the surviving people will gradually forget that the Wei army was once a ghost in order to survive.
Yu Jinshu packed up and asked Yuetao to dress up as a man. The two of them found the household registration card of a deceased couple in the village and prepared to leave the capital.
When they arrived in the city, the Wei army really stopped killing people.
But there were very few pedestrians on the street, and I didn’t see many people all the way to the city gate.
The guards at the city gate were no longer the Jin army, but the Wei army.
Yue Tao looked at Cheng Wei and felt very scared.
Yu Jinshu whispered, "If you're scared, just keep silent and pretend to be mute."
Yuetao nodded.
When they arrived at the city gate, the city guards looked inside the carriage and found only two torn quilts and a few tattered clothes.
The city guards looked at Yu Jinshu, who had a scar on his face, and guessed that he had been chopped on the day of the massacre.
But it's not easy to survive with such a big belly.
"People can go, but the carriage must stay."
Yu Jinshu looked at the city guards and pleaded in a hoarse voice, "Sir, it is inconvenient for me to move around. I hope you can understand."
The city guard angrily scolded: "Consideration is a farce. The battle has just ended and horses are the most scarce. Your horse must be sent to the military camp."
When Yu Jinshu heard this, he immediately turned around and took Yue Tao away.
Yue Tao was so anxious that she wanted to speak, but after thinking it over, she held back.
It’s not easy to walk without a carriage and relying entirely on two legs!
Fortunately, after walking for a day, they met a Persian caravan. The destination the caravan was going to happened to pass through the county where the male lord Jun Huan was.
Yu Jinshu took out a gold bracelet and got on the caravan's carriage.
This time, the Wei army massacred the city but did not massacre foreigners.
But even so, these Persians were frightened. When they heard that they could leave the city, they immediately left the capital with their caravan.
It took half a month to travel a thousand kilometers.
When they arrived at Pingyang County where Jun Huan was, the caravan rested in the county town.
Yu Jinshu was also tired, so he stayed in the inn with the caravan.
She planned to rest in the county town for a few days before planning to go up the mountain.
The Persian caravan left the next day.
Yu Jinshu began to inquire about Jun Huan's affairs.
The guy at the inn is nice to talk to.
"Jun Huan? Madam, are you talking about Jun Huan, the leader of Junshan Village?"
Yu Jinshu nodded: "That's him."
The waiter asked, "Madam, why are you asking about him?"
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "Although I am a woman, I also have some feelings for the underworld. I learned that you rob the rich to help the poor, and you are deeply praised by the people of Pingyang."
The waiter laughed. "That's right, isn't it? Junshan Stronghold has always only robbed officials and their families. After they've robbed a lot of money, they often come to the town to give it away. But they usually give the money to the poor. I even benefited from their kindness when I was a child!"
Yu Jinshu was delighted to hear this and asked hurriedly, "Have you ever been to Junshan Village?"
The waiter shook his head. "How can Junshan Stronghold be so easy to get to? I heard that the people in Junshan Stronghold are members of the royal family of Qi State. And Junshan Stronghold's terrain is dangerous, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. The government sends troops to attack it every year, but they've never been able to break in. To protect themselves, they generally won't let outsiders into the mountains easily."
Yu Jinshu understood that the reason why Qi State was destroyed was because it trusted treacherous ministers.
If we let outsiders in casually, they might lead the way to government officials.
This is like being bitten by a snake once, becoming afraid of ropes for ten years.
Yu Jinshu asked again, "How do they live on a daily basis? Are they self-sufficient in the village?"
The guy shook his head: "I don't know about that."
Yu Jinshu was still wondering whether the people from Junshan Village would come out to buy supplies. If so, she might be able to find an opportunity to contact them.
It seems that she needs to find someone to ask clearly.
