Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 94 Robbery

The past few days of travel have been sunny, and the snow on the road has begun to melt, making the roads difficult to navigate.

During the day, the wheels of the carriages would be covered with a thick layer of mud, which was sticky and slimy.

When the horse was pulling the cart forward, it seemed to be working very hard. Its four legs were moving with great difficulty, and you could hear the horse breathing heavily from time to time.

Su Yue instructed her men to travel in the morning and evening, stopping to rest at noon to allow time for both people and horses to recover their strength.

And just now, after much difficulty, they finally found a flat spot, and the carriage finally came to a steady stop.

Su Yue was carefully helped off the carriage by several attentive maids to relieve herself.

At this moment, Su Yue's hair was no longer the messy thing it used to be.

Her maids would diligently style her hair in various different ways every day.

One moment she's sporting playful pigtails, the next she's wearing an elegant updo; every hairstyle brings Su Yue joy.

Just as she came out of the makeshift outhouse that had been cordoned off, and was about to tidy her clothes,

Suddenly, the sound of approaching hooves could be heard, clear and powerful.

Within minutes, more than a hundred people had stopped in front of the carriage.

They looked like a group of fierce bandits, each riding a tall horse, holding sharp weapons, and exuding a menacing aura.

Then it stopped at the front of the carriage, and the scene immediately became tense, as if a dangerous atmosphere filled the air...

"Hahahaha... Brothers, look! There are really a few beautiful women here, their looks are even better than celestial beings! Hahahaha... We have to take them all back later and share them with everyone, so that everyone can have a taste of the good life, hahahaha..." The burly man with a thick beard at the front, looking unshaven, had excited glints in his eyes. His voice seemed to pierce the sky, completely ignoring Su Yue and the imperial guards beside him, as if they were not worth mentioning at all.

I thought these so-called noble ladies were just city girls out having fun. This time, they not only want to kidnap people, but also all the grain, just in time to satisfy the brothers' cravings.

"Hehe, big brother, I want the one in the middle. Look how pretty she is, with skin so smooth it's like it could be broken with a touch. She'll definitely be amazing." The dark-skinned, thin man behind him grinned wickedly, his lips curving upwards and his eyes revealing a hint of greed.

Before the bandits had even officially started fighting, they had already divided up their so-called spoils into small pieces, as if they had planned it in advance, and they were all very pleased with themselves.

Looking at the scene before her, Su Yue couldn't help but purse her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile. She secretly wondered whether she should praise these arrogant bandits.

Su Yue didn't move an inch, sitting steadily on the stool brought by the maid Qiaoxiang, her hands on the armrests, exuding a unique and extraordinary temperament.

Meanwhile, another maid, Qiaoyun, nimbly and carefully carried the small table out of the carriage.

Immediately afterwards, the third maid, Qiaoxia, followed closely behind, carrying a small and exquisite teapot. The three of them worked together seamlessly and methodically.

Their demeanor showed no sign of panic, which made Su Yue, who already had high expectations for them, even more satisfied.

The new emperor has finally done something reliable.

The Imperial Guard leader stood firmly about five meters away from the bandits, his expression cold and stern. His long sword was pointed directly at the bandits with fierce faces, making them dare not take a step forward.

His eyes revealed determination and authority, and the sharp sword gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as if it were ready to be drawn at any moment to deliver a fatal blow to those who dared to offend him.

"Step back, or don't blame the swords for being merciless." The Imperial Guard leader's voice was deep and powerful, each word striking the hearts of everyone present like a heavy hammer.

His tone contained no hesitation or fear, only an unquestionable command.

However, the bandit leader seemed to have heard the biggest joke, and a smug, wicked smile appeared on his face.

He looked at the Imperial Guard leader with disdain, a slight smirk playing on his lips, a sly glint in his eyes.

"Hahaha... Is he joking? Hahaha... We people of Tiger Head Peak are so scared!" the bandit leader said sarcastically, his voice full of mockery and provocation.

His henchmen behind him burst into laughter, their laughter filled with disdain and contempt for the leader of the Imperial Guard.

"Yeah, we're so scared!" The bandits behind them chimed in, shaking their heads as if they were really that powerful.

They completely ignored the stern expression and cold gaze of the Imperial Guard leader and continued to laugh unscrupulously.

The Imperial Guard leader frowned slightly, a surge of anger rising within him. He took a deep breath, struggling to suppress his emotions, and shouted again, "Step back immediately, or face the consequences!"

This time, his voice carried a hint of anger, like a volcano about to erupt, making people feel endless pressure.

The bandits' laughter gradually subsided, replaced by silence.

They seemed to realize that the commander of the Imperial Guard in front of them was not someone to be trifled with.

However, the bandit leader still refused to give up. He glared at the Imperial Guard leader with wide eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "You think you can scare us? We're from Tiger Head Peak! I've seen all kinds of people. Stop pretending, brothers, get him!"

As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand, signaling his bandits to charge forward together.

Suddenly, a group of bandits surged toward the Imperial Guard leader like a tidal wave, roaring as if they wanted to devour him.

Seeing this, the commander of the Imperial Guards showed no fear. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, his eyes flashing with determination.

He flashed away like a ghost, dodging the bandits' attacks, and then swiftly swung his sword, slashing at the bandits in the front.

A flash of sword light, blood splattered everywhere, and several bandits screamed as they fell to the ground, their bodies convulsing in agony, their eyes filled with fear and despair.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the leader of the Imperial Guards moved forward a few more steps, his long sword always on high alert, ready to deal with another attack from the bandits at any time.

Seeing how swift and ruthless the Imperial Guard leader was, Su Yue shouted, "Don't kill them all! They're still useful. Just beat them up casually."
