After traveling through time, I became a thorn in the eyes of the sickly prince

An Muxi didn't care about the man's life or death, she just kept running.

When he saw a convoy of sleds transporting food parked in front of a shop, he shouted excitedly.

"Hey, wanna take a ride?"

"Two taels of silver, only to the next county town!"

"can!"

An Muxi used his hands and feet on the snow, his beard fell off, and finally crawled onto the rice bag on the sled. He took out two taels of silver and threw it to the man.

The man smiled immediately when he saw the silver. He didn't expect that he really made two taels of silver just by saying it casually.

Mu Xi took a breath for a while, then realized that the sled convoy was endless. The sleds were raised at both ends and flat in the middle, making them very stable when moving on the snow. Each sled was piled high with food.

Each horse was wearing a cotton vest, and some had knee pads on their legs. I have to say that the ancient people were quite smart, knowing that sleds can reduce resistance in the snow.

The snow under the sled was pressed very smooth and flat.

Soon we were out of the city, and two endlessly long snow trenches appeared in sight on the official road. These two deep trenches were higher than the thighs of the horses.

The man led the horse into the snow ditch, and the sled just sat on the snow ditch, gliding smoothly. The grooms behind him led the horses into the snow ditch one after another, and the nostrils of the man and the horse exhaled a lot of white steam, which quickly turned into ice slag and hung on their hats. Looking around, there were half bodies of big horses in the snow, and one sled after another moved smoothly on the snow.

The northern border of Daxia is like this, otherwise why would it be called a bitter and cold place, and why would prisoners be exiled here?

Seeing Mu Xi’s fair skin, the man smiled and said, “You must be the son of a wealthy family, right?”

"How do you know?" Mu Xi responded in a rough voice. He was already dressed so poorly.

"Because the young master has bright eyes and fair skin, and his clothes are patched but not worn out." The man said in an affirmative tone.

Mu Xi laughed awkwardly, "I was angry with my father, so I ran out to find my second uncle!"

"I advise you not to be so willful. It's a chaotic time. Great Xia and Tianqi are at war. The people on the border are suffering. Add to that the snowstorm. Some of them have fled to our county. Also, in Zhaoyuan County ahead, the bandit problem is the most serious. I heard that a general newly sent by the court to suppress the bandits was captured. They want food and silver!"

"What, Zhaoyuan County?" Mu Xi's face changed drastically, and he sat up. His elder brother was working there. "Brother, what's the name of that general? Is he An Chengen?"

The man flicked his whip and said, "I don't know his name, but I heard that the general's family is rich enough to rival a country, so the bandits demanded food and silver. I heard that the general was tortured beyond recognition."

Hearing this, Mu Xi became even more worried. The An family had always been known among the people as being rich enough to rival a country. It seemed that it was indeed the eldest brother who was arrested. Those bandits were desperate criminals. They had finally caught a big fish, so they had to beat him to death.

"Brother, are you going to Zhaoyuan County with this sled?"

"No, we will unload the goods in Changwon. These are all grains to be sold to the government!"

"How far is Zhaoyuan County from Changyuan County?" I have to go and see it no matter what.

"It's not far. After passing Changwon, it's another day's walk away."

"How can we walk in such heavy snow?" An Muxi was in trouble after taking a look at the white snow.

"You can also ride a sled, if you don't have a sled you can ride a horse, but it will cost more!"

Mu Xi stopped talking, pulled down the brim of his hat, and lay back on the grain bag. Everything was fine in ancient times, but the transportation was really shitty. It was impossible to move when it snowed.

After a long time, the sled convoy arrived in Changyuan County.

Mu Xi found the horse market, bought a tall horse, and galloped towards Zhaoyuan County.

After leaving the county town, we walked into the deep snow ditch. At this speed, we would reach Zhaoyuan County by tomorrow morning.

The sky was getting darker and darker. An Muxi took out a set of mink fur from the space and put it on. Nothing was as warm as animal fur.

So, in the dark night, in the snow, a dark man lay on the back of a horse, running forward quickly.

When the horse is tired, it takes a rest, eats some food and gets some hot water.

Finally, at daybreak, we arrived in Zhaoyuan County.

This place is indeed a gathering place for bandits. The mountains on the south are undulating and the terrain is steep, making it seem like one man can block the passage of ten thousand.

After finding the post station, An Muxi changed a horse and headed towards the county government office, where he should be able to get news about his elder brother.

Not long after walking, I saw several civilians marching towards the south and shouting, "The fighting has started again."

"A lot of soldiers came yesterday. We've been fighting for a whole day. Those bandits are so powerful that even the soldiers couldn't beat them!"

Mu Xi stopped an ordinary man and asked, "How many bandit dens are there in Zhaoyuan County?"

"A tiger stronghold is enough to choke the government. It's right in Nanshan," the common people pointed, "We've fought many times but we can't take it down!"

Mu Xi turned his horse and ran south.

After running for about half an hour, I finally saw a large number of officers and soldiers. They were all very excited and some were injured.

Looking towards the city gate at the foot of the mountain, my heart sank, because I saw my elder brother hanging on the city gate, and his official uniform was very familiar to me.

Looking at the city gate again, a big man with a black face and beard was holding two big iron hammers in his hands, shouting at the officers and soldiers of Daxia, "Go back and tell your old emperor to send some useful people, otherwise I will kill one for each one who comes, and kill a pair if a pair comes." The two big iron hammers collided with each other, and sparks flew.

"Hahaha, that's right, just a bunch of trash!" The dozen or so bandits behind him laughed.

"We don't want to capture these soldiers. If we capture them and bring them into the village, we have to provide them with food and water. It would be unkind to just kill them with a knife. After all, they are just lives!"

"That's right, don't waste your time. Go back and send food and money to Anjia, otherwise there will be no deal!"

……

A general of Daxia was so angry that he picked up the sword on the ground and rushed forward, but two soldiers beside him held his waist tightly and prevented him from going forward.

"Boss, we can't do this. Cheng Peng and Cheng Lin have been arrested!"

"Hahaha," the bandits burst into laughter again.

The general became even angrier and said, "Release my elder brother and those two people first, otherwise the court will send a large number of troops to wipe out your Tiger Village!" He threatened.

When he heard Mu Zili's voice, An Muxi was overjoyed and Cui Ma ran forward.

But two soldiers blocked their way and said, "How dare you, you unruly people, break into any place!"

An Muxi tightened the reins of the horse and turned around on the spot, "Tell Mu Zili, the money bag is here!" Money bag is a word the two of them often use when they are playing around, and no one else knows what it means.

The soldier ran back quickly.

After a while, Mu Zili came running over on a big horse.

After guarding the border for several months, this man has become much more sharp-minded than before. He looks heroic in his armor, like an extremely sharp sword.

After seeing Mu Xi in men's clothes, Mu Zili's face showed joy, then his eyes turned red. He ran to Mu Xi and jumped off the horse, "I thought you were dead, burned to death in the fire!" Two lines of clear tears fell. After crying for a while, he raised his big hand and pinched Mu Xi's arm. After confirming that he was alive, he smiled naively.
