Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

The princess was a little annoyed and couldn't help but said softly: "You have to pay attention to the credentials when you say these things."

The eldest brother laughed, as if he was laughing at her innocence.

"Are you particular about proofs? We don't dare to have any proofs. After all, you officials can confuse black and white. Since you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it. I don't ask you to do anything for us, I just ask you not to Don’t disturb our normal life again.”

After speaking, the eldest brother waved his hand irritably, signaling them to leave immediately.

Seeing that he was really unwilling to communicate with everyone, Yao Shu could only nod in agreement and lead everyone away.

Soon, they arrived at the next town's inn.

This town is located in the middle of the Taihang Mountains. Because of its remote terrain, its development here is relatively backward.

As soon as the group arrived in the city, they could feel that it was completely different from the outside.

Shen Fugui couldn't help but sigh: "I had always heard from books that the mountains would be closed to hinder development, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"They have no way to communicate with the outside world, which will naturally hinder their development. We should not expose our identities during this trip to avoid causing further trouble." Yao Shu warned in a low voice.

Since entering the Taihang Mountains, they have realized that the people here do not like the government, and can even be said to be particularly repulsive.

"I understand, but there is something I still can't figure out." Shen Fugui was quite serious. Thinking of what happened recently, he would inevitably feel dissatisfied with Prince Jing.

He looked at Yao Shu worriedly: "If Prince Jing really has a problem, wouldn't we..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Yao Shu.

If Prince Jing really has a problem, and he has a close relationship with Marquis Ningyuan, if he really wants to pursue the case, the Shen family will not be able to escape the blame.

Yao Shu shook her head slightly: "Remember our current responsibilities. We are going to the Western Region to take up posts and see if we can open up a trade route. As for other things, they are not within the scope of our consideration. In our position, we are planning It’s not our responsibility. That’s all we can do now, there’s no need to worry about anything else.”

These words made several people present agree. Although they were still a little worried, Yao Shu's words were still effective.

Just when they came to the inn to rest, when they turned around, they saw the people outside hurriedly running to a place.

Shen Bei came to the door of the store curiously, stood on tiptoes and watched carefully, but he had no idea what was going on.

"Waiter, can you tell me what's going on outside that's so lively?" Yao Shu looked at the store aside, and the waiter asked softly.

The waiter continued to wipe the table without being surprised: "It's not a big deal, it's just that another robber was caught. We are a small town, and this kind of thing is a rare thing, so it is normal for everyone to be so surprised. "

The waiter replied nonchalantly: "Guests, if you are curious, you can go and take a look. Follow this road to the east and turn right at the second intersection. You can see it."

Shen Bei is a person who likes to join in the fun, so he will naturally not let go of such an opportunity.

He looked at Yao Shu expectantly and asked softly: "Mom, why don't we just go over and take a look, it won't be anything bad anyway."

The princess was a little tired, so she yawned and prepared to go upstairs to rest.

Yao Shu thought that it was hard work for everyone to travel all the way.

"You can do whatever you want, as long as you keep yourself safe."

Shen Bei said worriedly: "Mom, let's go over there and take a look. Actually, I'm mainly worried..."

Shen Bei did not finish his words, but Yao Shu already knew what he was worried about.

She patted Shen Bei's shoulder gently and raised her head gently towards him: "I'll go there with you."

A few people followed the waiter's instructions and came to the crowded place, and sure enough they saw the guards slowly walking over with several tied-up prisoners.

The guard was smiling and looked very handsome. The people around him greeted him with smiles and applauded with both hands.

They seemed to approve of the behavior of the guards, and even felt that they were doing a good thing by eliminating harm for the people.

But the Shen family immediately saw something was wrong. Shen Nanshan couldn't help but whispered: "Aren't they the same group of brothers who were on the mountain just now?"

Shen Nanshan looked again and again to make sure he had seen the right person.

The few people in front of them were indeed the brothers who robbed them on the mountain, but they didn't know why they ended up like this.

Only one day apart, they became prisoners.

"I wonder if this lady can tell us what happened and why they were tied up?" Yao Shu asked in a low voice.

The aunt pointed at the tied up man dissatisfied: "Look at how serious these people are, but in fact they are not good people behind their backs. I heard that they are robbing money everywhere, no matter who is passing by, no matter what the identity of the person is. , will definitely be robbed by him."

After saying that, another uncle added in a low voice: "That's right. I heard that these people also tried to blackmail the princess, but they failed. The princess, a person who understands justice, will definitely not let them blackmail. Maybe they are like this The first time I was caught, it was the princess’s order.”

"The princess is really far-sighted."

"Who says it isn't?"

The two of them were going back and forth, whispering so much that Yao Shu and the others couldn't get a word in at all.

Yao Shu felt really strange, so she asked again: "Who is the princess?"

They just arrived in this town and their whereabouts were exposed. Someone actually knew that the princess was among them.

But judging from the way they were talking, they probably didn't know that they were escorting the princess.

As expected, one of them waved his hand helplessly: "How do we know who this princess is? But I heard that this princess came with a minister going to the Western Regions and will come to our town in the next few days. .”

Another person immediately looked at Yao Shu warily, Brick: "Something's wrong. I see why you are so angry. Are you new here too?"

"You're right, we did just enter the city. We were planning to go to the next town to join our relatives, and we happened to see such a scene when we passed by. We couldn't help but feel curious." After Yao Shu finished speaking, she took Shen Bei to another place. aside, to prevent the two of them from arousing suspicion.

After confirming that he was gone, Shen Bei looked at Yao Shu seriously.

Although he didn't speak, Yao Shu already knew what he wanted to express.

"It seems that someone has indeed been watching us. Maybe someone in our team is deliberately exposing his whereabouts."
