Chapter 49 Fell into the Ditch
Before the Third Prince could even sit down, he heard a rustling noise behind him. Bandits were chasing him!
The Third Prince ran away.
The bandits behind him saw him and chased him.
Emperor Zi'an checked the storeroom. All the gold, silver, jewelry, and boxes were there. Not a penny was missing.
These were all going to go into the national treasury.
It was okay if they were lost.
[Yeah! Seventh brother is great! He finally added something to the national treasury of our Tiansheng Dynasty]
[A great contribution! A great contribution!]
Emperor Zi'an touched Abao's little face, "Sister, you are really my little blessing."
If it weren't for his sister's idea, he wouldn't have been able to subdue Feng Batian so smoothly.
"Seventh Prince, we didn't catch up with the man in black just now. He said he ran down the mountain and fell into a ditch." The man with the big scar on his face looked regretful, "I didn't expect Xiaodao to collude with outsiders and betray the village chief."
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he simply couldn't believe it.
The two of them had clearly agreed before that they would follow the village chief until death for the rest of their lives.
Emperor Zi'an frowned. Why did he feel that the voice of the man in black was a little familiar?
It's just that he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.
"This little scar-faced man has quite a wide network of contacts." The man
with the big scar on his face muttered, "I seem to have heard Xiaodao mention it before. He said he had relatives in the palace. At that time, it was just a few brothers making a fuss and gossiping, and no one took it seriously."
"Relatives in the palace?" Emperor Zi'an lowered his eyes.
Abao in his arms yawned.
Di Zi'an calmed down and quickly fed Abao some more milk, and Abao fell into a deep sleep.
Di Zi'an went to find Feng Batian.
Feng Batian was still alive at this time, sitting on a chair, and the black and purple color on his face had faded.
But he still held Abao's hair, protecting it like a talisman.
Seeing Di Zi'an coming, he quickly knelt on one knee and saluted Di Zi'an, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince."
Di Zi'an was a little surprised.
After all, Feng Batian said before that he would kill him.
Di Zi'an was still a little uncomfortable with being so polite to him all of a sudden.
"Master Feng, get up quickly."
Feng Batian kowtowed twice to the ground, "The Seventh Prince saved me from danger, he is my savior, I Feng Batian has always been a person who repays kindness."
"It's not me who saved you, if you want to thank someone, thank my sister."
[Huh? Why thank me? ]
A Bao, who was chewing his hand, was stunned.
Emperor Zi'an smiled and said, "To be honest, I had a dream last night. In the dream, my sister told me that you would be in danger today, so I came to save you. My sister is my lucky star. If it weren't for my sister, you would probably die today."
[Huh~ Brother, there is such a thing? ]
[This is a prophetic dream! It must be God’s mercy. He saw that you were so unlucky, so he gave you a dream to change your luck.]
Po giggled in Emperor Zi’s arms.
The little hand touched Emperor Zi'an's cheek, [I am your little lucky treasure, I love to hear this hehe]
Emperor Zi'an, who heard the inner voice: "..."
Feng Batian: "..."
Feng Batian looked at A Bao deeply, prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed several times, "Thank you, Tenth Princess, for saving my life. From now on, my life belongs to the Tenth Princess, but I will do whatever the Tenth Princess tells me to do.
If the Tenth Princess tells me to go east, I will never go west. As long as the Tenth Princess can use me, I am willing to serve the Tenth Princess."
[This Feng Batian is a loyal and righteous person. I was right about him at the beginning.]
[It's a pity that I was too young and couldn't speak.]
[Otherwise I would have let him go to Lingnan. It's an epidemic area and there was a riot. Although Feng Batian is a prince, he grew up in a commoner's family and knows best how to quell the chaos of the civilians.]
[Oh, forget it, this matter can only be thought about]
Emperor Zi'an had a flash of inspiration in his mind, "Feng Batian, the Tenth Princess is still too young and can't speak. I see that you are a loyal person. Why don't you go to Lingnan in the name of the Tenth Princess."
Feng Batian's eyes lit up while kneeling on the ground. What the Seventh Prince said and what the Tenth Princess thought were exactly the same.
He was originally thinking about how to ask for permission to go to Lingnan, and what a coincidence, the Seventh Prince's order came.
Emperor Zi'an added, "I will not write an imperial edict. If I dismiss you just like this, it would not be appropriate since you have made mistakes.
The plague has been going on in Lingnan for more than three months, and now it is almost winter. It just so happens that you are in charge of escorting a batch of cotton-padded clothes to the epidemic area to distribute to the people there.
This is also a chance for you to make up for your mistakes.
However, it is an epidemic area after all, and the degree of danger is particularly high. I don't know if you are willing to go.
Of course, if you are not willing, I believe the little princess will not force you. Everything is up to your wishes."
Feng Batian clasped his fists and said firmly, "Don't worry, Seventh Prince, I am willing to go to Lingnan. Not to mention the epidemic area, even if I have to go through fire and water, as long as it is the little princess's wish, I am not afraid."
"Think it over carefully, you will most likely risk your life this time."
Feng Batian nodded, "Don't worry, Seventh Prince, I will make money every day I live, even if I die in Lingnan, I will have no regrets."
"Very good, then pack up and get going." Emperor Zi'an patted Feng Batian on the shoulder to encourage him.
He really didn't expect Feng Batian to be so easy to talk to.
Although he looks big and strong, he actually has a pretty good heart.
[Brother, you understand me too well! ]
[Brother, how did you think of sending Feng Batian to Lingnan? Could it be the dream from yesterday? ]
Emperor Zi'an chuckled, how could it be a dream, it was his sister's voice!
...
Su Jinye was leading a team of officers and soldiers waiting for the signal from Emperor Zi'an on the mountain.
After waiting for two days and one night, no signal device was seen rising in the sky.
Instead, he saw the bandits in front of him, carrying bags and holding machetes, walking down the mountain.
Su Jinye: "..."
Why did he think these bandits were going on a long journey?
Isn't Taibai Mountain their lair?
Isn't Hutou Village their home?
They... don't want this anymore?
"Uncle!" Di Zi'an ran over happily with little Abao on his back.
Su Jinye looked over here, "What's going on?"
[Seeing handsome uncle again]
[Uncle, hug me]
Abao laughed so hard when he saw Su Jinye that his saliva flowed out, and he stretched out his little arms to Su Jinye, "Ah... hug..."
Su Jinye quickly took Abao, "Did you make the little girl hungry in the village these two days?"
Abao nodded.
[I'm so hungry, so hungry]
[My brother only lets me drink milk, but I really want to eat meat]
The corner of Su Jinye's mouth twitched.
The little girl is still a little foodie.
Di Zi'an coughed and said, "Thanks to my sister, the suppression of the bandits was very smooth this time."
[My brother is awesome, I wish my brother success in suppressing the bandits, throw flowers~]
As night fell, Su Jinye withdrew his troops and went to the palace with Di Zi'an and A Bao to meet the emperor.
In the study, the great tyrant got up immediately when he learned that Di Zi'an had returned, and he couldn't even approve the memorials, "You are so good, you actually stole your sister out of the palace to suppress the bandits, and let the bandits kidnap her into the mountain stronghold."
The great tyrant went to Yihe Palace yesterday, but didn't see A Bao.
After several inquiries, he found out that Di Zi'an had stolen A Bao away.
The great tyrant was so anxious.
Di Zian is not reliable at all. What if he hurts his beloved daughter? !
