Shocked by the huge amount of information in Lamir's simple sentence, Xiaodou suddenly turned around and stared at him!At this time, there were sudden hurried footsteps outside, and a moment later the cabin door was slammed open. Kasim stepped into the cabin, glanced quickly and saw Xiaodou in the room, "Are you all right?" He looked at Ramir.

Behind him was a man in a cloak. Seeing this, he took two steps and bowed to Lamir: "My lord, your guest is awake."

Lamir gave him a slight nod, and the latter knowingly exited the cabin and closed the door.

Xiaodou didn't know that Kasim and Senapu were also caught by Lamir's people after he was knocked down. He thought he was alone, but now he saw Kasim and couldn't help being a little surprised, " Kasim? Why are you here too..."

Kasim stared at Ramir angrily, "We followed after Sennap saw you being taken away by this guy, but was knocked unconscious by the person he brought."

Lamir opened his mouth without waiting for him to question: "Sorry, I went too far. Originally, I planned to wait for this port operation to pass before explaining the truth, but I didn't expect the situation to become too dangerous, so I had to use this method Bring people back."

He turned to Xiaodou, exhaled slowly, lowered his eyes and leaned slightly.

"...Your Highness, you are the princess of Molan. My father used to serve the princess, that is, your biological mother's retainer. I grew up with you. You disappeared in an accident three years ago. It is probably the same if you don't remember the past. Because of that accident. This ship is Mo Lan's envoy ship, and I will take you back with the soldiers under the king's order."

Being stretched by the tearing god, Xiaodou was stunned for a moment in his mind.

... oh go! ! !what's the situation! !

She digested it for a few seconds, and suddenly remembered some details——

It’s no wonder that he brought precious accessories with him when he was airborne, and it’s no wonder that he has the instinct to memorize the emperor’s handbook... When it comes to accessories, according to the setting of this world, apart from a few major countries that are the stage of the plot, other large and small countries and cities are ignored. The numbers were not mentioned one by one, and Mo Lan should be regarded as the group that was not mentioned.I remember that Kasim said at that time that his valuable collar was a special product of Molan, and now he matched it neatly.No, that's not the point... Xiaodou thinks there are too many slots, not to mention that His Majesty's setting is suspected and then enabled is really lacking in creativity. Isn't this overlapping with the attributes of Faxiao Alibaba in the distance?

This kind of setting is simply a magic trick to counter the progress of the strategy!After three years of shunning for the young male god, he finally shunned him into a donkey, but now that his hair has been fried, he has become a fried donkey... fork...!

Thinking of this, Xiaodou glanced at Kasim from the corner of his eye, just in time to see his somewhat surprised expression——

However, the young man's slightly shaken expression was only exposed for a moment, but quickly settled down, gradually revealing a quiet coldness.He crossed his arms, leaned his back against the wall lightly, his face was submerged in the shadow of the backlight, and his expression could no longer be seen clearly.

Xiaodou instinctively sensed the rhythm of true and anti-progress, and felt a little overwhelmed: "If this is the case, why did you wait until now to tell me?"

Lamir pursed his lips, and his expression became complicated: "I didn't want to tell you from the beginning."

Xiaodou was stunned. "What's the meaning……?"

"You are the only daughter of Princess Su Zhu, and you were originally the only heir to the throne. After the princess passed away, in order to let her son inherit the throne, the new princess sent people to assassinate you in three years, and framed the crime on my people. My Everyone in my family was sentenced to death. Only I escaped from the palace alive and have been searching for your whereabouts. Unexpectedly, I was rescued by Kasim a year and a half ago and found you again. At that time, the new princess was in power in the country. The king doesn't care about the government, and he doesn't care about your life or death. Even if I bring you back to the palace, it will only be sent to her door to be slaughtered. So after I find you, I plan to keep my name anonymous and protect you to continue living an ordinary life."

Lamir's eyes dimmed slowly.

"But just two months ago, that woman and her son died violently together. I only found out about it when the people sent by the king found me a few days ago. The king also gave my family members a clean slate and hoped that I will take you back. I originally planned to wait until after the attack on the port to find an opportunity to explain to you, but the situation is too dangerous, so I have to use this method to bring you on board in advance. If I don't do this, It is very likely that you will be caught by the Barbard King's army along with the bandit group....Sorry, I have kept you a secret all this time."

Xiaodou was so shocked that he didn't know where to ask.

For a while, no one spoke, and there was a dead silence in the cabin.

After a while, Kasim moved slightly, breaking the silence. "Where are the others you took aboard?"

The half of his face with an indifferent expression was reflected by the blurry light, and there was no emotion in his tone.

Lamir was stunned, and said after a while: "In another cabin, I probably haven't woken up yet. This ship is the envoy ship of the Moran royal family. We are now on the east side of the port. King Barbad's army does not have the right to search. You can Rest assured to avoid the limelight here."

Kasim frowned, "What do you mean?"

"..." Lamir was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "After taking you back to the ship last night, I took people back and wanted to find an opportunity to help the people in the group evacuate, but found that the exits of the port were all blocked by Wang Jun. Sealed... Everyone was captured by King Barbad's army."

……

Port of Barbard.

The sky was twilight, and the salty sea breeze was mixed with an unpleasant smell of burning.After the turmoil last night, many cargo ships near the pier were damaged when thieves set fire to them last night. Burnt smoke hovered between the hulls and wreckage was everywhere.The wide square connected by the pier was indistinctly messy, and a line of captured thieves had already knelt densely at the edge, guarded by the surrounding Wang Jun with knives.In the middle of the square, the King Barbad's army formed a small team of threes and twos, holding torches and directing camel horses to carry the bodies of the murdered thieves.Most of the thieves who can still walk have been tied up and taken to the periphery. Some thieves who are too injured to move but still alive are dragged out of the pile of corpses. Before they can even scream, their throats are cut by Wang Jun. !

Xiaodou and Kasim happened to see this scene when Lamir led them to the height of the boat.Seeing this scene, Kasim's pupils shrank sharply, and he turned around and was about to go out. Lamir immediately took a step to stop him: "Calm down. It is impossible for you to break through so many kings, not to mention that even if you can break through successfully, it is impossible to break through such a large army." Many people were brought out together. And last night, many Wang Jun saw that we brought you back to the ship, but it was because of the agreement between the two countries that they gave up the search on the ship. People around the ship are watching, you just need to You will be arrested as soon as you get off the boat." He opened the porthole beside him and motioned him to look out.

Looking out from the porthole, you can just see that the side of the ship where the sampan is placed is heavily surrounded by the Barbad Royal Army and is heavily guarded. The pier that runs through the surrounding sea is also patrolled by the Royal Army. As soon as someone disembarks, the Royal Army will go on board Ex-examination.

"Last night when you attacked the port, I took people to lookout at the northern exit according to your arrangement. Halfway through, I found that the cadre of the bandit regiment who was originally responsible for guarding the southern exit did not follow your order to guard the main road. Someone saw him and King Barbad's army. The little leader is connected." Lamir's face became more and more serious, "I led people to rush over to confirm the situation, and it happened that he led a group of Wang Jun to avoid other sentry teams and headed for the port. At that time, it was too late to warn, so I could only Take the soldiers on our side to pass through the entrance guarded by the king's army in the name of protecting the envoy ship, so that we can go in and rescue His Highness."

When Lamir said this, his expression was a bit bitter.

"Wang Jun even set up an ambush on the escape route planned before. Except for the person who was knocked out by us and brought on board, everyone else was captured. It should be that person who sold the information of this operation to Wang Jun in advance. … There have been traitors in the bandit group for a long time, this operation should be a trap from the beginning."

As soon as the words fell, there was a muffled bang at the cabin door, and the three of them looked back at the same time.

Sennapu's face was pale, and he stood there holding the doorknob. There were several cadres of the bandit group standing behind him. Obviously, they had heard all of Lamir's words just now.Seeing Kasim turning his head, Sennapu's lips trembled, "Boss, everyone..." The knuckles of her knuckles holding the handle turned blue and white, "Hassan—Hassan was also arrested! What will happen to Wang Jun? deal with them...?"

Lamir looked at the soldiers following behind the thieves.The latter understood and said in a low voice: "Just now someone brought back news from the outside, because it has been judged to be a rebel army, not an ordinary bandit, so the new king of Barbad issued an order to kill him on the spot in front of the people after dawn Rebel."

The thieves immediately turned red eyes, "Stop joking! Boss, let's rush out now—"

"What's the use of that? There are so many Wang Jun's people, if they go there, they can only die with them, right?"

Sennapu shrieked, "That's better than shrinking here and watching your companions die!"

Amidst the quarrel, Kasim, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke out.

"Shut up."

He glanced gloomyly at a group of thieves, who immediately hesitated to speak.Only then did he look back, and said lightly: "Those who want to stay here, stay. Those who want to go follow."

Hearing this, Sennapu immediately stood beside him, followed by several thieves, walking towards the hatch.Lamir immediately stopped in front of Kasim, and the Moran soldiers guarding outside also blocked the cabin door.After waking up, most of the thieves had learned of Lamir's identity from the guarding soldiers, and all of them showed vigilant expressions when they saw this.Sennap looked at Lamir with a complicated expression, and finally said in a cold voice: "Get out of the way, our business has nothing to do with you."

Ramir frowned slightly. "Even if the identities and positions are different, I still regard you as my companions. Sorry, I can't watch you die."

People on both sides were at war with each other, and the thieves began to quarrel fiercely.At this moment, a loud "bang" suddenly came from behind everyone!

The sound of the quarrel suddenly suffocated, and everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound——

The sound came from a huge wine barrel that hit the ground; when everyone turned their heads, Xiaodou was still kicking the barrel with his feet.Seeing that everyone was looking over, she withdrew her feet and said briefly, "Stop arguing."

The Molan soldiers who had grabbed their scabbards just now turned to her immediately, retracted their knives in unison, and lowered their heads at her.

Xiaodou raised his arm and pointed to the porthole.

"Let me go."

With a slight movement of his wrist, he accurately pointed in the direction of the Barbad Palace in the distance.

"Find someone to send a letter to the new king of Barbad, saying that the princess of Molan wants to negotiate with him."

The thieves were so preoccupied with the quarrel just now, they didn't know that their companions who had been with them day and night turned into a royal family, so they were all stunned at the moment.Neither Lamir nor the other soldiers at the scene expected the amnesiac princess to enter the role so quickly, and they all froze in place.

……

The large and gorgeous carriage convoy studded with luxurious jewels slowly drove along the passageway given up by King Barbad's army. They passed through the port square full of captives surrounded by the heavily guarded soldiers.

In a corner of the square, Wang Jun was dragging the corpses of the murdered thieves over and temporarily piled them up.The carriage turned a fork in the road and happened to pass by here.

In the leading carriage, Sennapu, who was dressed as a palace maid, was opening the curtain to look out. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but trembled slightly, and turned her head to look at the other people in the carriage, "Even if you go Negotiations, what name will the foreign royal family use to save the traitors of other countries? Pleading? No matter how much you beg for mercy, it is useless, that kind of scum will never have the slightest tolerance for people like us!..."

The thieves in the car all changed into the clothes of Molan soldiers at this time, and they all looked ugly and didn't answer when they heard the words, their eyes fell on Xiaodou who was sitting in the middle.

Sitting in the corner beside him, Kasim lowered his head and wrapped the black mist knife on his arm with cloth strips and hid it in his cloak. Hearing this, he said with a cold expression: "If we fail, we will attack from outside the port. Go in and save people."

At that time, Xiaodou was thinking about countermeasures in his brain.There seems to be no such crisis in the original book, and it was probably blown out by her butterfly wings—if she fails to convince King Barbad, Kasim rushing back with people would be tantamount to death.

... It's a big deal to turn a donkey into a fried donkey. Repeat it again, and it's really no problem to turn into a dead donkey.

Thinking of this, she couldn't laugh, but instead, the scene of thieves being cut down by Wang Jun appeared in front of her eyes.She no longer dared to think about how many familiar faces she would never see in the future, and the possibility that other living people would never see them again soon.

In order to negotiate with King Barbad, Lamir had already arranged for her to change into the costume of a princess.She lowered her head and stared intently at the pure gold armband on her forearm.Molan is rich in gemstones and precious metals, and the casting process is also ingenious. Two blood-like rubies are inlaid on the clear yellow metal. Like a pair of clear red eyes.

This kind of color matching is too delicate, and Xiaodou was suddenly recalled, thinking of many methods of a certain tyrant.She regained her senses and said slowly: "The port is blocked, and more and more residents and sailors have gathered around, and the news will spread among the crowd soon....The people living around here are poor people, most of them Received our relief."

Seeing that everyone in the carriage was looking at her, she let out a slight breath.

"In the past, these people might still find ways to find some odd jobs to make ends meet. Since having us, life has become much better. Many people simply don't go to work and rely on the donations of the righteous bandits to survive. The children they don't want are also lost. Come to us to raise them. You are used to living a life full of food, even if you want to be alone, once the righteous thieves are wiped out, it is impossible for them to return to the days of starvation."

There was a pause at this point, and she lowered her eyes to hide the emotion in her eyes.

"...persuade them to intercede for us. Then tell them, 'After Wang Jun executes all the thieves, he intends to bring to justice those people who have been favored by the righteous thieves for harboring thieves. If they protest, the king may take them back. Fate', so that more people will come."

Sennapu was stunned and said, "Wh...why did you do this?"

Xiaodou glanced at her, and finally replied ambiguously: "After the scene becomes chaotic, even if you really want to break out and save people, it will be more likely."

……

After the Molan King's convoy reached the periphery of the port, Xiaodou and his party were in the lead carriage and continued to move forward, while the other carriages turned into a remote corner, and the thieves on board jumped out of the carriage and scattered into the alley. Some hurried towards the crowd gathered outside the port, while others ran towards the slums outside the port, preparing to mobilize civilians.After the convoy separated, Xiaodou's car speeded up, and soon drove into the inner ring of the capital and arrived at the Barbad Palace.

Xiaodou has some impressions of Barbad's current king, Abu Maduo.When Kasim burned the palace back then, when she slipped away to watch the wind, she had heard the guards talk about this one who was still the crown prince at that time—he was ugly, incompetent, and he had almost all the characteristics of a stupid king regardless of whether the people lived or died.If it weren't for the fact that Ali Baba, who was the third son of the king, escaped from the Barbad palace because of guilt, it would be difficult to say who will take the throne.

When a group of people passed through the magnificent outer hall and arrived at the inner side, they could see the situation inside through the half-closed palace door from a distance—the port was miserable and rainy, and the short king was actually having a banquet with several princes.

Kasim, who was pretending to be a soldier, suddenly clenched his hand resting on the handle of the scimitar, making a light click.Lamir immediately stood in front of him unobtrusively, casting a blocking look, and the Moran soldiers behind him also changed their formation, silently separating Kasim for a distance.

Lamir walked side by side with Kasim two steps behind, and said in a deep voice without looking sideways: "If you do anything to endanger King Barbad here, Molan's position will become very difficult, and even Put Your Highness in danger. If you want to do something here, I will stop you. You saw it last night, these people carry magic weapons, and your fog knife will not work against them.  … But As a companion, if this negotiation fails, I am willing to personally assist you to fight to the last moment."

Kasim's expression remained unchanged, the hand on the handle of the knife slipped slightly, and then he let go naturally.

Xiaodou, who was walking in the front, naturally couldn't see this scene, but focused on the scene in front of him; Barbad's army stood in front of the luxurious long table, and most of the bloated princes and nobles sitting around looked at each other. Looked over from a different place.

Sitting at both ends of the long table with Abu Maduo, she suddenly felt some untimely subtle familiarity—it was as if she had returned to the time when she sat at the head and greeted the eyes of those who each had their own ulterior motives in the Uruk elders' house. .It's just that the person sitting in front of him is no longer the tyrannical ancestor, but a short, fat king.

Seeing her sitting down, Abu Maduo propped up his fat chin and muttered: "Welcome to you, my princess. The envoy delivered the letter too late, and the reception was not good. I heard that you have something to discuss with me?" During the speech Already shaking the golden cup of wine in his hand in boredom.

Xiaodou was not in a hurry to answer, but kept silent until Abu Maduo got tired of playing with the gold cup and looked at her with some doubts and impatience, then said calmly: "I hope you can take back the sentence An order from the bandit group making trouble at the port."

Abu Maduo was stunned for a moment, and then his face collapsed, "What are you talking about? This is the internal affairs of this country. Besides, the matter of those thieves has nothing to do with His Highness, right?"

"I have been helped by these thieves, so I cannot sit back and watch them be executed."

The royal family present, including Abmado, probably heard some secrets about the Molan royal family, and they also knew that Molan made a sudden visit to pick up the wandering princess back, so it was not surprising, and the people at the meeting whispered One of the nobles smiled and said: "Your Highness, please don't get too close to the inferior people."

"Your Highness wants to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, it is too embarrassing. What kind of friendship can you speak for the rebels in other countries in front of the kings of other countries?"

"The king is really good-tempered. If someone wants to grab Yeshu's scepter, our king will go to the inner hall of the Molan Palace to plead with the queen. I don't know what the queen will think?"

Xiaodou seemed to have never heard of it, and calmly waited for them to finish speaking and continued: "Last night, Wang Junge killed a group of thieves and piled up the corpses in the port. After dawn, he preached the death of traitors everywhere. If it is to deter the people, then your purpose It has been achieved, and there is no need to execute everyone."

Obviously impatient to talk about this topic, Abmado waved his hand to signal the rest of the people to silence, and then threw a grape into his mouth: "These people are rebels who want to disrupt my rule, and they must all be executed."

At this moment, a command officer suddenly ran in outside the palace gate, and hurriedly sent a message to the political officer who had spoken just now.The latter changed his expression, lowered his head and whispered something to Abmado.

Seeing Abu Maduo's expression, Xiaodou turned her head and gave Ramir a questioning look. Seeing that the latter nodded at her, she looked at Abu Maduo again: "Are you talking about the commotion of the people at the port?"

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became tense.The administrative officer still wanted to pretend nothing happened, but Abu Maduo couldn't hold his breath any longer, and said in a somewhat exasperated tone: "How do you know?"

Xiaodou replied calmly and without changing his expression: "I just came from the port, and the subordinates who came later brought me the news first. I heard that there are still people spreading rumors, saying that Wang Jun is going to bring to justice the people who are related to the rebels. Around the port The poor people in the city have been helped by the bandit group, and they are dissatisfied with the royal family's judgment, so more and more people gather. If you still insist on executing them, it may turn into a troublesome turmoil."

As soon as these words came out, Lamir and others who knew the inside story were all stunned.In fact, the messenger brought the news that the people had started to push Wang Jun, which was more critical than what Xiaodou said. He spat out the grape seeds in his mouth angrily: "It's just a group of mobs, they have no ability to fight against the army, just send soldiers to suppress it." He waved his fat and short arms as if chasing flies, "Send the order Go down and let them execute on time."

The atmosphere was steep, and Xiaodou knew that it was impossible to intercede in a normal way.From the corner of the eye, Sennapu's body tensed suddenly behind her, and she frowned slightly. "To put it bluntly, the thieves are just a group of poor people who can't eat enough. Even if His Majesty executes this group today, tomorrow there will probably be another group of people who can't eat enough to pick up weapons and make trouble. No matter how many heads are cut off It’s useless, and the suppression with the army is endless. What’s more, the traffic at Barbad Port and various checkpoints has been affected by the scourge of thieves over the years, and the number of caravans coming and going has also begun to decrease, and the situation will only get worse.”

She raised her hands on her knees, put them lightly on the table, interlocked her fingers, leaned slightly, and stared intently at Abu Maduo.

"...But I have a way to let His Majesty do it once and for all."

Abu Maduo was led away unknowingly, and subconsciously asked, "What method?"

Xiaodou's eyes darkened, and she was silent for a moment before speaking.

"The righteous thieves who have been making trouble in the capital for many years are actually the Moran royal family behind the scenes. They manipulate the so-called "righteous thieves" under the guise of saving the people, but they actually want to disrupt the stability of Barbad. It is to attack the port trade of Barbad. The so-called saving the country and reassuring the people is nothing but a conspiracy of the hostile rulers in the contest between countries."

She turned around and pulled out the scimitar with a magic circuit engraved on Lamir's waist and placed it on the long table.

"This batch of standard magic weapons made by Magnostat is the best evidence. The Barbad King's Army seized these weapons from the righteous thief, and found that the logo and year of the Molan Army were engraved on them, and soon Several Molan spies were found among the thieves. They admitted to providing weapons for the rebel group, and have been lurking among the thieves, relying on the distribution of money and rations to win the hearts of the people, and continue to expand the size of the thieves group, deceiving and inciting the poor in Barbad, Use them for your own purposes, causing civil strife in Barbard."

"The new king of Barbad wanted to execute these thieves after he made the conspiracy public, but out of mercy, he pardoned their death crimes on the grounds that they were instigated and ignorant. But even so, they are not worthy to be kings anymore The people are not worthy to set foot on the land of Barbad, so the king sent them out of the country along with the Molan envoy ship."

"So far, these people are no longer righteous thieves or rebels fighting for the poor in the hearts of the people, but real traitors, and they are pawns who assist foreigners to bring disaster to the hometown of the Barbad people. Even if there are future The purged remnants are not to be feared, and it will be difficult for Barbad to form such a large-scale "righteous thief group" in the future, after all, the people will suspect the motives of the so-called "righteous thieves" and guess whether they are such liars again."

——"The people will no longer trust the 'righteous thief'."
