After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 10 Someone inquired at the inn passing by
Xie Zhen's appearance was unexpected by the whole family.

Especially the third lady Shen, Xie Zhen's mother, couldn't believe it for a long time when her daughter suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Zhen'er... you?"

Xie Zhen passed the interrogation by the officers, relaxed completely when he got to his family, and sat down on the ground.

Mother Shen asked her, "If you don't live a good life in Beijing, why are you here?"

Xie Yuchuan learned about his second sister Xie Zhen from the family god, but he said nothing.

When Xie Zhen saw his mother asking her, he took out the divorce letter written by Zhuang Xu from his arms.

After Mrs. Shen read it, she passed it on to others and finally sent it to Mrs. Xie. After reading it, the old lady cursed bitterly: "Zhuang Xu, this treacherous person! You are not a husband anymore."

Mrs. Shen sadly took her daughter into her arms and choked with sobs: "My son has been wronged."

Xie Zhen was okay, and patted his mother's back gently with his hand, "Mom, Zhuang Xu is not a good match. It's a good thing to take advantage of my childless child and get rid of them all."

Tu Hua was invisible not far away, and couldn't help but applaud when she heard this.

Unexpectedly, the second sister of the Xie family was a cheerful person, and she liked her.

Mrs. Shen may seem weak, but she has a strong heart. Seeing that her daughter can think openly, she no longer struggles.

"You kid can actually say words of comfort to me."

Xie Zhen was her only daughter. She had been widowed since her husband died very early, and her thoughts all her life were devoted to the single child that Mr. Xie left for her. When the Xie family was in exile, she was glad that her daughter Zhenniang was already married and did not have to suffer with them.

Now...that's all.

With the Xie family's current situation, it would be a good idea for the mother and daughter to be together.

Xie Zhen was not on the registration list, but Xiong Jiushan still sent an official over to register her.

Xie Yuchuan glanced sideways to the other side. Xiong Jiushan seemed to be a reckless person, but in fact he was rough and subtle.

When Xie Zhen was free, Xie Yuchuan asked her, "Did the banker steal your dowry?"

"After something happened at home, they had nothing to worry about."

Hearing this, Xie Yuchuan nodded, his expression unchanged, but his look was a bit colder.

After the whole family exchanged greetings, it was already dark and it was time for everyone to rest.

The escorting soldiers and government officials were arranged in three shifts, taking turns to guard the place. In the wilderness, if you didn't want to guard against bad guys, you also had to watch out for some wild animals.

The prisoners huddled next to each other to keep warm against the cool night breeze.

Xiong Jiushan looked at a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled people. He didn't want to cause a life-threatening lawsuit just after setting off, or drag the sick body down with the whole team. He ordered people to light a bunch of torches around the prisoners in the east, west, north and south. After the fires were burned out, the residual heat was still there. Save, to dispel a little bit of the chill.

This move attracted many prisoners to be grateful.

The male members of the Xie family still circled the female family members inside and around the outside, which was safer. Even if there were officials on duty around, Xie Yuchuan still negotiated the order with the men in the family and stayed on duty one by one.

Tu Hua stayed outside for too long. When she saw that Xie Yuchuan had settled her family down, she turned around and went back to her room.

After a brief wash, I changed my clothes and went to the study to draw.

Outside the window, insects chirped, birds chirped, the wind rustled, and the moonlight dimmed.

It was the most suitable atmosphere for creation. She couldn't sleep anyway, so she continued working on her previous work and worked until late at night before closing the computer and going to sleep.

This time, Tuhua slept a little too long.

When she woke up, it was almost noon as the sun was high in the sky.

She habitually asked Xie Yuchuan about the situation there, and found out that if the exiled team walked two or three miles further, they should reach a small inn in the middle and take a short rest. After a day and night of hard work, many prisoners cleverly kept some of the pancakes distributed in the morning with them, in case they got tired or hungry from walking and had no food to eat.

Xie Zhen originally had a car, specially for his grandmother and children, but he donated it last night for fear of being obstructed by the officials.

At this time, I was traveling with my family, and it was hard to see how the shackles on everyone's bodies were an eyesore.

Carrying a few bags on her back, she walked to Xie Yuchuan's side, looked around, and discussed with her brother in a very low voice.

"Yuchuan, I still have a few life-saving silver notes and gold leaves with me. Can you be accommodating and pick these things? I think everyone will feel uncomfortable. If we continue like this, there will be problems."

Xie Yuchuan shook his head, "Sister, you donated something last night. It's not appropriate to reveal your wealth at this time."

Xie Zhen said: "Sister, I understand, it hurts to see her."

"After passing the inn, we should be able to pass by the village in the evening. I'll just come."

"Do you have any idea?"

Xie Yuchuan nodded slightly.

The accompanying people were not allowed to interfere with the tortured person. Xie Zhen looked at the shackles on his mother, Shen, and wished he could take them off and put them around his own neck.

Mrs. Shen waved her hands repeatedly, "Don't do anything random, be careful not to get involved together."

The team moved forward all the way, starting early in the morning and walking until now, and passing through the scorching sun at noon. When the escorting officers took a break, they saw one after another sitting down on the same spot, and some even simply lay down. It was really impossible to walk. Moved.

As soon as Xiong Jiushan's troops arrived, the people on duty at the inn hurried over to apologize.

"There are a few noble people taking a rest in the inn. Sir, look at this..."

He pointed at the long queue of deportees behind Xiong Jiushan. Among the prisoners who had been away for a day and a night, there were some good ones.

"It's not an eyesore, but I hope my superiors will be considerate."

Xiong Jiushan looked at the other party condescendingly. Seeing that the other party's expression was shaking, but he seemed to be very embarrassed, he waved his hand and ordered: "Then prepare some water."

The officer at the post station said happily: "Sir, wait a moment! I will order someone to bring water."

As long as you don't get too close to the inn and offend the nobles, then you can say anything!

The team rested in the woods five hundred meters away from the inn. The prisoners didn't know what kind of riddle the officials were playing. They just felt that they were happy to be in the woods and protected from the sun.

The forest is quiet, but it gets noisy when there are many people.

But even so, the sound of silk and bamboo coming from the far-off station still floated over.

Xie Yuchuan was treating the wound on his arm. The wound medicine given by the family god was very effective. He applied medicine to other injured family members one by one.

Xie Wuying was given medicine by Sixth Brother last night, and today she found that the inflammation and scabs had reduced, and she was amazed again and again.

"This medicine is really good!"

Xie Yuchuan did not explain where the medicine came from. It was common for military personnel to have a few medicines to treat injuries.

The post officer came with a few men to deliver water, and Xiong Jiushan took people with him to sign and go through the formalities. At each stop, the seals had to be checked, and if there were any sudden situations, they could be reported at any time.

There was nothing wrong with the procedure. The post officer and Xiong Jiushan and the other escorts left a few rooms. They were not big, but they were better than being outside.

Xiong Jiushan felt annoyed when he heard the sound of playing and singing next door, so he might as well go outside to clean up.

Just when I was passing by the stairs, I happened to meet a handsome young man coming out from the opposite side.

"I wonder if among the prisoners your Excellency is taking this time, are there any members of the Xie family from the Duke Protector's Palace in Jingmen?"
