Tianbao smiled and shook his head, "I'm fine, nothing happened. How's it going outside?"

"Meixian Cheng and his men have already gone up the mountain. The mountain stronghold is now surrounded. Not even a fly can fly out."

"what happened?"

"What's going on?"

The cook who was woken up in the room and the cook next door who was woken up came out one after another.

Everyone was half asleep and was woken up by the noise outside.

Tianbao looked at them with a smile, "Everyone, we are safe. The officials are here to rescue us."

"what?"

"Am I dreaming?"

"how is this possible?"

Many people couldn't believe it and ran outside to check it out.

Suddenly a group of yamen runners came in, and everyone was so scared that they immediately stood still again.

The person who walked in was the magistrate of Mei County with his bailiffs. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tianbao.

"Greetings, County Lady. You have suffered."

Ever since the county lady and her companions arrived at the mountain stronghold, Madam Li, her young lady and her daughter often sat together sighing, feeling anxious and worried.

I’m just afraid that something might happen to Tianbao and the others.

"Greetings, County Lady." The yamen runners behind him all saluted.

"Now that you're here, what's going on outside?" Tianbao asked.

"Don't worry, County Lady. Those bandits have been controlled. The second in command has been captured by you, and those who were captured have also been rescued." Mei County Magistrate replied.

"County Lord?"

"Are you a girl?"

"She is actually the county lord?"

"Did you get caught here on purpose? Just to save everyone?"

The cook and the maid asked Tianbao one after another, and they were shocked that Tianbao was such a county lady.

Tian Bao smiled and nodded, "Everyone is safe now. I will send you down the mountain early tomorrow morning. Now you can continue to rest."

"oh oh…"

"Ah..."

"Great."

They jumped and danced, hugged each other, and started crying while laughing.

They can finally go back.

Tianbao followed the magistrate of Mei County to the courtyard where Li Jin and others were staying. Li Jin, Zhu You, Zhang Bao and others were talking inside.

Seeing Tianbao and the others coming, he quickly stood up.

"Tianbao, Tianbao...Brother is exhausted these two days, are you okay? Fortunately you didn't go to work with us." In just two days, Li Jin lost a lot of weight.

"Brother, you've suffered a lot. Go back and ask your sister-in-law to nourish you and make more of your favorite food."

Li Jin was very touched "Sweet baby..."

"Aunt, Dad..." Li Shubai strode in.

"Shu Bai..."

"You guys find a house nearby to rest first, we will go down the mountain tomorrow morning." Li Shubai said.

"Has everything been dealt with in advance? What about that mountain?" Tianbao asked.

"Leave the rest to the garrison commander. He will take over and send soldiers to surround the mountain. Then he will notify the emperor and see how he handles it."

Li Jin breathed a sigh of relief, "I can finally go home."

"Those who were arrested can finally go home, and their families are still waiting for them to return." Tianbao continued.

"Yes, we can go back tomorrow." Li Shubai nodded.

It was already very late, so Yuexin found a room at random, tidied it up, made the bed, and then Tianbao and Yuexin went to sleep.

The next morning, when Tianbao came out after washing up, there were already a lot of people outside.

They were all civilians and businessmen who were captured.

At this time, they were talking to Li Shubai. Since they knew that Li Shubai was the magistrate of Xinchang County, they were very moved by his willingness to go deep into the enemy camp to save them.

"The county lady is out." Someone shouted.

When everyone saw Tianbao coming out, they all knelt down.

"Meet the county lord."

Everyone was very grateful to Tianbao, knowing that the person who saved them with a cold face was someone close to the county lord.

The county lady is so young, how dare they enter the bandit’s lair?

Not everyone has this kind of courage. After all, she is the county princess. Not everyone has this kind of courage.

"Everyone, get up quickly. It's already daybreak. Follow the bailiffs down the mountain." Tianbao said with a smile.

Everyone bowed to Li Shubai and Tianbao again, and then followed the bailiff to leave.

"Qing Mo, you are our great contributor this time. You are this." Li Jin gave a thumbs up to Qing Mo standing beside him.

Zhu You, Zhang Bao and others also gave thumbs up and praised Qing Mo.

Although Qing Mo usually has a cold face, he is still very reliable at critical moments.

After handing over the matters on the mountain, Li Shubai and his team prepared to leave.

"Sir Li." An officer came over. "The second in command has woken up. He has been making a lot of noise and cursing, and he wants to see you."

Li Jin snorted coldly, "If he wants to see me, then he can go and see me? No!"

Li Shubai nodded and said, "I don't want to see him." He was afraid that he would vomit if he saw the second in command again.

After Li Shubai said hello to the garrison commander and the prefect, he took Tianbao and the others down the mountain.

**

"Why haven't you come back yet?" Qian Xiaoxiao stretched her neck.

"It should be soon." Li Xiaoning also stood on tiptoe to look into the distance.

"They should still be on the way. After all, the way down the mountain is not easy to walk on." Mei Jing'an continued.

The three were waiting at the gate of the county government office to welcome them back.

'Da da da'

"It's the sound of horse hooves." Li Xiaoning was very excited.

"I'm back." Mei Jing'an was also very happy.

Two horse-drawn carriages drove over here, with Su Liao, Yun Rongzhi, Yue Xin and others riding horses.

"Sweet baby... Shubai..."

"Aunt...Brother..."

The three of them hurried over to meet him.

As soon as Tianbao and the others got off the carriage, they were immediately hugged by Qian Xiaoxiao and Li Xiaoning.

Qian Xiaoxiao went to see Li Shubai again and said, "It's okay, everything is fine."

When they went to see Li Jin, Qian Xiaoxiao and the others were very surprised. "What happened to you?"

Li Jin now has pain in his hands, arms and waist.

"I'm dying of exhaustion. I only get one meal a day, and it's cold."

"Uncle, you've suffered so much. Look, not only have you become darker, but you've also become thinner." Li Xiaoning suddenly felt distressed.

"Uncle, we have asked people to prepare the food, everyone please go in." Mei Jing'an also felt sorry for Li Jin.

three days later

All the civilians and merchants captured in the mountains were finally sent back, which also relieved Li Shubai's worries.

"Shu Bai." Tianbao and Li Xiaoning walked over.

"Aunt, Xiaoning." Li Shubai asked the two to sit down.

Tinghan quickly served tea and snacks.

“Shubai, Xiaoning and I just went to the countryside and visited many villages.

We found that the most serious problem now is that the roads in those villages are steep and bad.

It’s very inconvenient, and even more inconvenient to travel. I want to build a road for those villages.”

Li Shubai smiled and nodded, "That's what I was thinking. There's still a lot of money in the county government's account. I plan to use it all for the people."

After all, those were also drawn from them.

Tianbao smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Five days later, all the road construction work had been completed and several villages where the roads were to be built had been planned.
