The Time Traveling Prince Consort Plans to Rule the World for Me

The mountain road was rugged and full of thorns. Eleven had abandoned his horse at the foot of the mountain and was walking quickly through the dark forest.

Bai Ri Shiyi followed the route Ling Feng told him and found the place where Qing'er was unconscious, and followed the traces of the wheels to the forest.

The wheel marks suddenly disappeared on the path at the foot of the mountain, as if someone had intentionally concealed them.

Eleven searched carefully around the broken wheel mark, and soon found the Yunwang Mansion's carriage, which was covered tightly with grass and branches in the thatched bushes on a small path nearby.

The weeds near the carriage showed signs of being trampled. Following the direction of the traces, Eleven was sure that the people who had kidnapped Mu Jin were somewhere on this mountain.

The bandits are very cunning. Although their dens are set up in these dense forests for cover, they will still move from time to time in order to prevent the soldiers from chasing them in daily life.

Eleven kept running all the way, blaming himself all the time. Why didn't he kill Shen Qianqian and Guangfu when he knew they were going to harm Mu Jin? Mu Jin wouldn't have suffered this disaster today.

But then he thought, Mu Jin asked him to hand the two men over to the government for investigation, so how could he disobey? He could only blame himself for being so careless and falling into Deputy Guang's trap and drinking the bowl of poisoned medicine.

Fortunately, Guangfu didn't know the special characteristics of Eleven's body. Ordinary poisons could not hurt him for long. Eleven looked sick during the day, but now there was no sign of illness on his face. Every time he was injured, he recovered several times faster than ordinary people. He discovered this since Mu Jin saved him for the first time.

Thinking that Mu Jin's life or death was uncertain at this moment, Eleven's heart began to beat rapidly again, as if it was going to jump out of his chest. He clenched one hand into a fist and held the sword tightly in the other hand, but he could not ease his inner panic. He was so panicked that he even forgot that Mu Jin knew martial arts.

After searching for nearly an hour, Eleven finally found some sparse lights on the top of a nearby mountain. He quickened his pace and ran towards the lights like a wolf.

Mu Jin kicked Zhao Dahu, who was kicking his legs hard and glaring at her, several times. Fearing that his constant noise would attract other bandits, she knocked Zhao Dahu unconscious with a single blow of her hand.

After pushing the unconscious Zhao Dahu under the bed, Mu Jin quietly walked to the window and looked out into the courtyard, and found that Zhao Dahu's door was still unguarded.

Mu Jin turned around and looked around Zhao Dahu's room, trying to find some clothes to put on and disguise herself so that it would be easier for her to escape from this bandit den. However, looking at Zhao Dahu's stinking clothes, Mu Jin thought that it would be easier for her to fight her way out than to put on those clothes.

Thinking of this, Mu Jin opened Zhao Dahu's door, walked out in the cover of night, and headed towards the main room.

There were more than 20 bandits in the main room. They were eating meat and drinking wine, and discussing Zhao Dahu and Mu Jin with dirty words.

At this time, a bandit said to the man next to him: "I say, Second in Command, I saw during the day that the princess of Prince Yun's Mansion is hundreds and thousands of times more beautiful than the courtesan in the brothel. Her skin is so tender that you can pinch water out of it. You have made an indispensable contribution this time. Doesn't the First in Command invite you to join us~?" After saying that, he smiled, and the dirty meaning was self-evident.

Of course the second in command knew how beautiful Mu Jin was. They were all desperate criminals. They used to follow Zhao Dahu's father and occasionally they could capture a few women to play with in the mountain village. After Zhao Dahu's father died, they followed the coward Zhao Dahu. Not to mention women, they had to hide from place to place on weekdays and their life was not very good.

Until a month ago, Guangfu spent two thousand taels of silver to find the middleman Li Dashan to get rid of Mu Jin.

Li Dashan was also a robber, but when he heard that the person to be robbed and killed this time was the princess of Prince Yun's Mansion, he was afraid of offending the government, so he did not dare to take the case. However, he was reluctant to part with Guangfu's two thousand silver taels. The world was in a bad situation at that time, and the two thousand silver taels could support his bandit nest for one or two years.

Li Dashan, who took the two thousand taels of silver from Guangfu, was worrying about how to deal with this difficult business, but he met Zhao Dahu and several bandits who came to the brothel for fun.

When Li Dashan saw Zhao Dahu, an idea came to his mind. He immediately picked up the wine glass and walked to Zhao Dahu's table with a smile, declaring that he would pay for all the drinking expenses for Zhao Dahu and his brothers tonight.

Zhao Dahu knew Li Dashan. Normally, the two gangs kept to themselves, but he felt a little flattered by Li Dashan's sudden praise.

When Li Dashan pulled Zhao Dahu into the side room and told him about the ambush and killing of Mu Jin, Zhao Dahu immediately said that he dared not take it. Ever since his father died, he had been living off the money left by his father, and he would not dare to take on such a big job right away.

The second in command of Zhao Dahu's stronghold was also there at the time. He thought it was a big job and asked how much silver he would get for the job. When he heard Li Dashan say that the boss offered one thousand two silver taels, he and Zhao Dahu's eyes widened.

One thousand taels! Even if Zhao Dahu looted all the silver in the entire mountain stronghold, he would only have a few dozen taels. Normally, they just had to rob the weak passers-by to make ends meet. This one thousand taels of silver was extremely tempting to them.

The Second in Command thought so, and Zhao Dahu also understood this truth, but...

Looking at the hesitant Zhao Dahu, the second in command immediately asked Li Dashan about his plan to ambush Mu Jin this time.

When he heard that Princess Yun was not favored and was usually followed by only a maid and a coachman, and that he could get the money by killing a few people when the three men were in a deserted place, the second in command immediately instigated Zhao Dahu to take over the business to establish his authority in the mountain stronghold. After all, life in the mountain stronghold had been getting worse day by day since he took office.

Seeing Zhao Dahu hesitating, and Li Dashan talking about how Mu Jin was out of favor, and how even if she died, King Yun might think her death was a good thing and would not pursue the matter, Zhao Dahu gritted his teeth and took over the business.

It was just that they were unlucky. They failed in their first attempt to rob Mu Jin and lost the lives of five brothers. This incident also made the people in the village lose their trust in Zhao Dahu, and some even intended to support the second in command to take the position.

Zhao Dahu also knew what the other bandits in the village thought, so when Deputy Guang gave him another two thousand taels this time, he took it without any hesitation, and personally went into battle and successfully robbed Mu Jin.

The second in command played an indispensable role in getting this business from Mu Jin. The bandit's words touched the second in command's heart, and he gave the bandits a wicked smile.

"If the boss is willing to give the princess to me to play with, I will definitely not forget you all. Then everyone can come together, we can eat meat together, drink wine together, and have sex with women together!"

As soon as the second in command finished speaking, all the bandits in the room started to compliment him.

Originally, Mu Jin just wanted to leave quietly, but when he heard the obscene words from the bandits in the house, Mu Jin couldn't help but squint his eyes and look at the firewood piled under the eaves.
