"Go forward at full speed!" Fei Ran ordered.
Suddenly there was a huge dust cloud. Xue Tongfei got on the chariot and asked Fei Ran urgently, "What happened? Tell me quickly, otherwise I won't leave."
Fei Ran saw that his expression was serious and he was about to leave without saying anything, so he had no choice but to briefly describe it.
The system of the Aowu Kingdom is peculiar. The emperor's warriors are of a low level, or even just ordinary people. When the former emperor selected the prince, he only selected the prince who had a mediocre interest in martial arts and no talent for martial arts. It is said that the advantage of this system is that if the emperor is addicted to martial arts, he will not be able to practice martial arts. Restricting the acquisition of resources will easily lead to chaos in the country.
The power of the secular world of Aowu State belongs to the emperor, while the control of the mysterious world is managed by several families. These families are directly related to the emperor and check and balance each other. Although the operation of the system has had bumps and bumps for thousands of years, it has been generally stable and normal.
"Why, it's not stable now?" Xue Tong asked.
"It can't be said to be unstable, but it can be regarded as a collision. The fiefdoms of the father and the father-in-law are close to each other. In the past twenty years, there have been constant small disputes. Every time when inspecting, someone stops the car and complains." Fei Ran said.
"Oh" Xue Tong felt relieved and asked: "Will it be troublesome to deal with it?"
"It's okay to fight, but try not to kill anyone," Fei Ran said.
The journey of more than ten miles soon arrived, and thousands of people crowded the post road ahead, blocking Fei Ran's motorcade.
"Princess, the people from Xiaoyingzhou have robbed our land. The princess wants to make the decision for us."
"Zhao Daqiang from Xiaoyingzhou was instigated by others and maimed three members of my family. Please ask the princess to redress the grievances of the common people."
Fei Ran was angry and laughed, "Kill all these people away!"
The princess's bodyguard and five hundred armored troops stepped forward, pulling and dragging the people from Xiao Jingzhou away.
Xue Tong would not care about such nonsense. He observed the terrain. There were sparse vegetation on both sides of the post road, and there was no place for an ambush. The hills were several miles away, and the field of vision was wide. No unexpected accidents could occur.
But the people in Xiaojingzhou were dragging them harder and harder. Miao Feng waved his sleeves lightly, and dozens of people rolled down the slope. After a few times, Miao Feng frowned, and there were actually warriors in Xiaojingzhou.
In the center of the group of people blocking the road in Xiaojingzhou, a group of warriors who were originally submerged in the crowd emerged.
Xue Tong naturally felt that the situation was different.
"I didn't expect that the princess of Prince Chong's Mansion would be so unreasonable. It's so disappointing." The leader of the warrior said disrespectfully.
Miao Feng gave a low shout, and the armored soldiers stepped back, leaving a large open space between the small Jingzhou warriors and the convoy of Prince Chong's Mansion.
"It seems that there was no such program during the last few inspections." Fei Ran frowned and muttered to himself.
"Who are you? Tell us your name!" Miao Feng shouted.
"We are from Prince Xiaojing's palace. These are the people of Xiaojingzhou who have serious grievances. The princess cannot just throw them away."
"Bold maniac, you are rude again and again, get out of here immediately!" Kuai Yuanzhong from Prince Chong's Mansion shouted loudly. He was a confidant of the prince and a highly accomplished martial artist the day after tomorrow.
"Stop the princess in her carriage. If you commit the following offenses, you will be arrested and punished if you don't leave!" Shan Chunhua, who had achieved great success the day after tomorrow, shouted. She was the bodyguard of Princess Rui and was specially sent to Fei Ran's side.
"The emperor's uncle and the head of the state turned a blind eye to the decades of minor friction. Obviously they didn't want to make it big. They hoped that the people below would handle it properly. They didn't expect it to get bigger and bigger. What on earth did they want to do by blocking the car? There's no way they wouldn't let the princess pass." Xue Tong stared at the warrior on the opposite side and thought.
"We are not guilty of stopping a car to complain!" Mu Jie from Prince Xiaojing's palace responded forcefully.
"Bold!" Miao Feng flashed and rushed to Mu Jie, reaching out to grab him.
"Hmph!" Mu Jie waved his hand and slapped him in the face.
Miao Feng staggered and took a few steps back before barely standing still.
"Oh?" The people in the princess motorcade were stunned. Miao Feng lost to Mu Jie, and Kuai Yuanzhong might not win. The people from Prince Xiaojing's palace seemed to be stronger. This was something that had never happened before. Fei Ran The first inspection was met with big trouble.
"You guys get out of the way for now. Both Xiaoyingzhou and Xiaojingzhou are favored by our emperor, and they should live in harmony. If there are serious grievances, the Xiaojing Palace can send people to Yingcheng, and I promise to deal with them impartially." Fei Ran said.
What she said shocked Xue Tong. It did not seem to come from the mouth of a naughty and unruly princess. It seemed that Prince Chong or Princess Rui had given instructions before the inspection.
As soon as Fei Ran said this, everyone in Prince Xiaojing's palace was also surprised. After a while, Mu Jie bowed deeply and said, "Please forgive me for the rudeness of the little people. We will report the original words of Princess to Prince Xiaojing."
After saying that, with a big wave of his hand, more than a thousand people in Xiaojingzhou slowly retreated and disappeared completely after a while.
"Princess, the people from Prince Xiaojing's palace deliberately caused trouble. There is no precedent for our palace to agree to investigate." Kuai Yuanzhong added.
"There is absolutely no precedent? The convoy was stopped by the warriors of Xiao Jingzhou. Is there any precedent? The whole team was ordered to drive through the night and arrive in Yingcheng tomorrow!"
…
Xiaoying King Fei Tianlei, the seventh son of Fei Hanhai, is nearly fifty years old and ranks among the vassal kings.
When Fei Tianlei heard about Fei Ran's encounter on the road, he was furious and ordered to send more guards from the feudal prince's palace. The number of princess guards was doubled, and three more warriors at the Dacheng stage were added the day after tomorrow.
Fei Ran was reluctant to refuse, and agreed that the guards of the feudal prince's palace would be on guard on the outside, and the guards of the prince's palace would be on guard in the inner circle.
…
After the welcome dinner, we were in Shengyuan next door to the feudal prince's palace.
Xue Tong asked to see Fei Ran, but Fei Ran shouted and retreated, leaving only Shan Chunhua alone.
"Guard Shan has been my mother-in-law's confidant for thirty years and is absolutely reliable. Xue Tong, why do you want to see me?"
"Princess, please tell me in detail about the inspection station?" Xue Tong lowered his voice, even though his consciousness scanned it and he was sure that there was no one else there.
"Guard Shan, tell me." Fei Ran curled his lips and said.
Shan Chunhua gave an introduction to the general idea that inspections were a routine behavior, and the purpose was to inspect the fiefdom to see if there were any major public sentiments or important issues that needed to be resolved urgently.
"Hmm, I would like to ask about the status of the warriors in Prince Chong's palace, the ones at the Xiantian level, and the ones at the peak and Dacheng level."
"In addition to the prince, the general manager of the palace was promoted to the early stage of Xiantian level ten years ago. There are three people at the peak of Houtian level and twelve people at the Dacheng level. During this inspection by the princess, Kuai Yuanzhong and Miao Feng are the leading figures in the Dacheng level."
"How were the inspections in the past?"
"Some people blocked the car, and some cried grievances, but this is the first time a warrior has stopped me."
"What is the status of the dispute between Xiaoyingzhou and Xiaojingzhou?"
"They are all disputes over border land, who robbed whose resources, who beat whose people, etc."
"Yeah," Xue Tong nodded.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Fei Ran asked impatiently.
"Haha, I think this inspection is not easy. Princess, please don't be careless. What are you going to do with the people from Xiaojingzhou who come to redress their grievances?"
"What should we do? Let's take care of business and go to court for trial, haha!" Fei Ran laughed.
…
Sure enough, the people from Xiaojingzhou came. Mu Jie brought ten people and a whole truckload of materials. Fei Ran refused to refuse anyone who came. On the first day, he admitted two of the three cases and paid thirty thousand taels of silver.
Xue Tong was on duty outside the hall. After observing, Fei Ran's actions did not seem to be impromptu, but Shan Chunhua was more prepared. He was thoughtful when reviewing the case and was worthy of being the right-hand man sent by Princess Rui.
Fei Tianlei's people were guarding outside the courtyard. According to the rules, he himself could not participate in the princess's handling of disputes.
Prince Xiaoying's Mansion.
Fei Tianlei's face was terrifyingly gloomy, "Fei Ran took my father's will and actually surrendered to King Xiao Jing, reviewed the dispute between the two states and paid him money. He is obviously dissatisfied with me for being in charge of Xiao Yingzhou."
"The prince has worked hard in Xiaoyingzhou for more than 20 years and handed over countless resources to Prince Chong's palace. How can the prince treat the prince like this?" Fei Tianlei's confidant Jiang Xiaolin said.
"Prince Chong sent Fei Ran here just to give the prince a beating. The lower official suggested that there is no need to overreact. It is just right for Fei Ran to pay the money, and the previous grudges with Xiao Jingzhou can be wiped out." Fei Tianlei's other confidant Gu Cheng said.
"The disputes we have with Prince Xiao Jing are not serious matters. Prince Chong probably didn't want to make a big deal with the father-in-law, so he came forward to resolve it in the name of Fei Ran. Fei Ran is a female class who doesn't care about face. Such a handling method is clever, and the prince does not have to Just think about it and be careful in the future." said Jin Qian, the manager of Prince Xiaoying's palace.
"Manager Jin's words are wrong. Once Prince Chong becomes dissatisfied, it will be difficult for him to get better in the future. I'm worried...I'm worried that in a few years, the prince's name may not be...guaranteed," Jiang Xiaolin said.
"Don't belabor this. What do you think about the matter at hand?" Fei Tianlei interrupted Jiang Xiaolin and asked.
"We will wait and see what happens and then make plans. If Fei Ran makes no further moves, we will stand still." Jin Qian said.
"What if there is? The number of guards in the Prince's Mansion has doubled, the three hundred armored troops have become five hundred, and the dispute with Prince Xiao Jing has also been resolved. It is very troublesome to deal with." Jiang Xiaolin frowned.
"You can't do it forcefully," Gu Cheng said hesitantly.
The hall fell into silence...
At the end, Fei Tianlei's eyes flashed coldly, "Ignore it for now, I hope Fei Ran won't be too troublesome."
…
Fei Ran continuously investigated the old case with Xiao Jingzhou for ten days, briefly summoned a few witnesses, and paid more than 70% of the case, with a total of 380,000 taels of silver, worth approximately 100,000 spiritual stones.
She said to Mu Jie, the general of Prince Xiaojing's palace: "The case of Jingzhou in Yingzhou has been investigated, and the grievances of more than ten years have been wiped out. You go back and report to Prince Xiaojing. Harmony between the two states is a century-old plan. Don't settle for trivial matters." Let’s start another dispute and fight for some irrelevant resources.”
"Princess is far-sighted and has a big heart. I will definitely tell Prince Xiaojing to convey the wishes of Prince Chong and the princess." Mu Jie said softly.
Fei Ran was in a good mood, and held a banquet in Shengyuan that night. Fei Tianlei led a group of people to accompany him, and they drank and talked happily, which was very lively.
Five days later, the princess motorcade patrolled various places. Everywhere Fei Ran went to the three counties and seven houses of Xiaoyingzhou, thousands of people gathered to watch. Fei Tianlei's people were guarding the outer circle, and it was difficult for the people to get close to the motorcade. Occasionally, one or two people tried to complain, and immediately He was captured by people from Prince Xiaoying's palace.
I don’t know if Fei Ran saw or heard it, but the journey was uneventful. Fei Ran stayed in various prefectures for five days and met with local gentry.
After two months, we arrived at the last place, Hangu City.
Xue Tong was secretly amused. Fei Ran completed his mission in Yingcheng and went through the motions. He would be able to return in ten and a half days.
However, three days later, something big happened!
