Shannan Province is next to Gyeonggi Province. In this life, Zheng Ji has never been there.
In fact, she had not left Jingzhao for nearly a year after she was reborn.
Unexpectedly, this first time leaving Beijing was to go to Shannan Road.
In her previous life, she rescued Fengchen Wei here, and thus became attached to Fengchen Wei.
What about this life?
Don't know.
This time, she did not go for Fengchen Guard, but for the martial arts competition.
At this moment, Zheng Ji was riding on the horse specially sent by Liu Chundu from Danqiu Racecourse. He looked at the horses rushing ahead and couldn't help but smile.
Because she was traveling on horseback, she wore a black riding outfit, and still had golden phoenixes fluttering about to fly embroidered on her shoulders, which made her more graceful and magnificent.
Of course, with Chang Dingsu guarding her, not many people could actually see her appearance.
However, all the Wuge soldiers traveling this time knew that His Highness Changding, like them, was riding towards Shannan.
This somewhat impressed them.
Her Highness Changding is the darling daughter of heaven. It is said that she has never left Jingzhao, but she did not choose a carriage and a soft pillow, just like any soldier who goes to participate in the competition.
The soldiers who went to Shannan Road to participate in the competition were all experienced in the military and knew very well how difficult it was to ride horses for a long time.
Although they didn't have to ride thousands of miles quickly, the five-day journey was still an extremely arduous journey even if they rode slowly.
This is true for soldiers in the army, but what about Her Majesty Changding, the darling daughter of heaven?
His Highness Chang Ding's martial arts skills are very strong. It is one thing to be able to kill Xie Yi and others, but riding a horse... This actually has nothing to do with his martial arts skills.
As long as it is high-intensity riding, the physical exertion and wear and tear on the waist and legs are the same.
Behind Zheng Ji, there were several carriages.
Li Xing'en on the carriage kept raising the curtain, looking at His Highness with worry, and murmured: "We have already left Beijing, why don't you rest? Your Highness may be able to bear it?"
Du Fengju was sitting next to him. After listening to these words, he couldn't help but look at the person who attracted the most attention, his eyes also filled with concern.
However, he is not able to say it like Manager Li Xingen.
From the moment he left the Jingzhao City Gate, he could hear Manager Li's nagging in his ears. He was either worried about His Highness this or that.
His heart also rose and fell with Manager Li's words.
Originally, he thought that as a Wuge soldier going to Shannan Road to suppress bandits, traveling thousands of miles was nothing. Marching and riding horses was what any soldier in the army should do.
If you can't do this, just don't join the army.
But when the rider becomes His Highness...
Du Fengju sighed quietly in his heart: He turned out to be the kind of person he had always despised in the past. He almost wanted to invite His Highness to sit in the carriage several times.
This is not for His Highness's good, but to hurt His Highness' face.
If Your Highness can't even bear this little pain, then what will happen to Your Highness in the battle against bandits and leaders on Shannan Road?
Your Highness is subject to many restrictions as a woman participating in the martial arts competition. Even if she is the emperor's daughter, she is also subject to harsh criticism.
In such a small matter, His Highness will not let himself make any mistakes.
"Old slave... I wish I could ride this ride for His Highness! But, just..." What Li Xing'en said for the umpteenth time reached Du Fengju's heart. ..
Isn't that how he feels?
However, the actual situation was that he and Manager Li were sitting in the carriage, looking at His Highness riding the horse and sighing.
He thought for a while and said: "Manager Li, Your Highness... she has to do this. Your Highness, she can bear it."
These words were also admonishing himself.
His Highness has chosen a road filled with difficulties. What does the hard work of riding a horse mean?
He looked at his face in the cold wind
His Highness, who was smiling, knew that instead of suffering from this, she was actually proud of it.
Among the princesses of the Tian family in the country, only Your Highness can participate in the martial arts competition, only Your Highness can ride horses on the Shannan Road, and only Your Highness... can contact the military.
These are glory and hope for His Highness. As people around His Highness, they should be happy for His Highness.
As if aware of their gazes, Zheng Ji on horseback immediately turned around, met their gazes, and smiled brightly.
In the cold wind, such a smile was like the dawn of day, instantly dispelling all the darkness and haze.
Du Fengju's heart seemed to be poked, and he subconsciously smiled in response.
The road ahead is full of mountains and rivers, and it is good enough that he can accompany His Highness, no matter in what capacity.
Du Fengju closed his eyes, and the mountain map of Shannan Road clearly appeared in his mind.
He could not ride for His Highness, but he could do other things for His Highness. This was why he sat beside His Highness in the carriage.
Shannan Road, Lishan...
What he arranged, what the Jiang family arranged, and what others arranged will all come together here. It can be said that everything is gathering together. It will be very lively there next.
"What kind of place is Toshan? Please tell me quickly."
In another carriage, Tao Jingyi leaned on the carriage and looked at Shen Shen with bright eyes, wanting to know more.
That's right, the carriages Zheng Ji brought with him when traveling had practical uses.
Shen Chen and Tao Jingyi were so seriously injured in Dingchang that it was impossible for them to travel far on horseback. This carriage was specially prepared for them.
Shen Chen thought for a while and then said slowly: "Li Shan... is a bit evil."
"How do you say this?" Tao Jingyi was stunned.
Before she left Beijing, the Tao family and Concubine Tao Xian had of course collected as much information as possible about Shannan Road and Lishan, but Shen Chen came from Shannan Road, so what she knew was of course different.
"Lishan Mountain was originally the site of the Shannan Guards' post. Later, there was an earthquake there, and Shannan Guards moved to another location. Because of the earthquake, mountains and abyss appeared here, and gradually became overgrown with trees and inaccessible, and finally it became a place where thieves The place where bandits set up their stronghold."
Most places where thieves and bandits are causing trouble have such an environment, making it easy to hide. There isn't much to say about this.
But the reason why Lishan Mountain is so evil is that Shannanwei actually sent troops several times. Every time they arrived at the foot of the mountain, something would happen. Either they encountered violent storms or heavy rains, or they encountered flocks of birds. On one occasion, they encountered an earthquake. The mountains are shaken.
They can't even climb Lishan Mountain, let alone suppress the bandits?
Therefore, Shannan Wei's bandit suppression campaign will eventually come to nothing.
I don’t know why, but after a long time, it was rumored that Lishan was protected by gods and Buddhas, which made Shannan Wei dare not move lightly.
Tao Jingyi sneered, "Haha", "If there were gods and Buddhas, they wouldn't protect thieves! This place is really evil!"
He nodded heavily and replied, "Yes, I think so too."
It's a pity that when he was in Shannan Guard, he was only obsessed with developing weapons, and he only heard this about Lishan. If he knew that one day he would go to Lishan to suppress bandits, he would have endured and listened for a while.
Why is Lishan so evil?
"I have corrected some fallacies in the previous chapters, but it does not affect reading. Thank you everyone for pointing them out!"
