Shi Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "We stayed in Wuhuiling because we had nowhere to go. If we could live like normal people, who would want to be a bandit in the mountains?"

Shi Che answered: "Yes, it's all thanks to the young lady. Otherwise, our brothers might have to stay in the mountain forever."

Ye Weiyun said: "Of course we are happy for you to go to Nanzhou together. But Nanzhou is a barbarian land with poor mountains and harsh rivers, and the people's life is very difficult. The erythema on your face has healed, you can stay there."

Shi Xuan smiled generously.

"We three brothers have discussed it. It is true that Nanzhou is not as fertile as here, but with our three brothers' skills, farming and hunting, we can always survive. We mainly admire the character and talent of the young marquis and the young lady. I am willing to follow you."

"We are just exiled prisoners," Ye Weiyun looked a little sad, "When we arrive in Nanzhou, we don't know where we will be sent. You don't have to follow us. If you are interested, just come and see us when you have time in the future."

Shi Lie was impatient. Hearing this, he said anxiously: "What kind of prisoners are not prisoners? Jingxi Marquis Mansion serves the country and the people. We all know it. You must have been wronged. What are we doing in this useless place?" ? Everyone here looks down on us and treats us as devils, leaving us here to suffocate. We might as well go to Nanzhou and live happily."

Shi Che nodded sharply, agreeing with what he said.

Shi Xuan smiled and said: "My second brother speaks frankly, but it is true. We don't want to stay here, we want to go to Nanzhou. Whether you are willing or not, we have decided to go to Nanzhou anyway."

The road reaches the sky. They are willing to take this road. Who cares?

Yan Ruoli and Ye Weiyun knew that their minds had been made up, so they stopped trying to dissuade them.

To be honest, it is definitely a good thing to go to Nanzhou with them.

Seeing their acquiescence, the three Shi brothers happily gathered everyone in the village together.

Shi Xuan stood in front of everyone and said loudly: "From today on, we three brothers have decided to go down the mountain and follow the young prince and young lady to Nanzhou. If you are willing, you can go with us. If you don't want to go, we will issue Severance package, everyone can reconcile and break up."

Everyone below was talking a lot, discussing the future direction.

After half an hour, everyone finally made a decision.

A small group of people, about twenty people, decided to follow the three Shi brothers to Nanzhou.

The rest, nearly a hundred of them, decided to stay where they were.

They are all locals, some because of the red spots on their faces, and some because they were forced to leave grass in the mountains.

If they can survive locally, they are less willing to risk going to Nanzhou.

Everyone knows that Nanzhou is not a good place. I heard that the people there live extremely hard, and many people don't even have enough to eat.

The three Shi brothers did not force themselves, kept their word, and paid each of them a severance package of 100 taels of silver on the spot.

These people took the money and went down the mountain happily.

100 taels of silver is enough for them to build a few simple houses at the foot of the mountain, buy a few acres of land, or start a small business.

This day just goes on.

Before going down the mountain, the three Shi brothers made them swear that no one was allowed to tell anyone about what happened on the mountain, especially the situation of the Ye family.

Everyone swore a poisonous oath and promised not to say anything.

When these people went up the mountain, Shi Xuan personally tested them and believed in their character.

After dealing with the matter at the cottage, Shi Xuan asked people to pack their things and prepare to go down the mountain.

Seeing Chu An driving the bullock cart, Shi Xuan looked sideways at You Yong.

"How noble the young marquis and his wife are, do they deserve this ox-cart? At least they have to ride in a carriage, right?"

You Yong was speechless.

No matter how noble they were before, they were now prisoners. Riding in the bullock cart was done for the sake of the Chu family's face and their respect for God.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that. The look in Shi Xuan's eyes clearly said, if you don't agree, I will kill you, this bad official.

Strange, why did he drink with this bandit two days ago and still call him brother?

Playing like a family of officials and bandits?

Shame.

You Yong was confused in his mind, but he said: "Isn't it close to the capital? You have to avoid it. It's far enough away from the capital now, so naturally the young marquis and his family should take a carriage."

Shi Xuan looked away with satisfaction and ordered someone to drive the carriage.

Soon, one of his men drove a carriage over.

Yan Ruoli saw that the carriage looked familiar and couldn't help but lift the curtains and look inside.

After seeing the layout clearly, she couldn't help but ask: "Brother Shi, how did you get this carriage?"

Chu An also saw the carriage and exclaimed: "Isn't this the Third Young Master's carriage? Where is the Third Young Master? What did you do to him?"

"Third Young Master? We didn't meet any Third Young Master?" Shi Che said with confused eyes.

Shi Xuan explained: "A few days ago, a caravan passed by, and we went down to borrow some money from them. Those people were sensible and offered the money with both hands. We saw that the carriage was empty and looked ordinary. The furnishings inside are very luxurious, so I thought our village needed a carriage, so we kept it. As for the Third Young Master you mentioned, we really didn't see it."

Shi Lie said: "Although we three brothers are bandits, we always keep our word. If we had seen that Third Young Master, we would definitely not hide it."

Chu An felt relieved: "The third young master is the smartest. He must have heard that there were bandits, so he didn't take the carriage. It's very possible that he didn't go with the caravan, but brought a few other people with him and passed by pretending to be ordinary passers-by. "

Shi Che recalled: "There was indeed another group of people passing by that day. The spies reported that they were dressed simply and did not look like rich people, so we didn't go to rob them. Oh, we didn't go to them to ask for money."

Yan Ruoli couldn't even laugh or cry, what is this called?Enemies on a narrow road?Coincidentally?

She patted the carriage and said, "Okay, let's take this carriage. We will pass through Fengxi City. Then we will return the carriage to the Third Young Master."

When she arrived in Fengxi City, she bought another carriage to travel.

The carriage was very spacious, and it was more than enough for the five members of the Ye family to sit in the carriage.

Ye Feiran looked at the carriage with joy, as if she suddenly transformed back into the noble daughter of the Marquis Mansion.

"Sister-in-law, can we wear beautiful clothes?"

Yan Ruoli smiled and shook her head.

"It's better to keep a low profile."

She actually felt that the cloth was quite comfortable to wear, and the color was soft and pleasing to the eye. It might not be as good as the exquisite satin clothes.

Gao Liuer looked at the Gao family walking behind the car with mixed emotions.

If Yan Ruoli hadn't taken her in, she would be one of them now.

No, she would be worse off than them.If you don't eat enough, your arm may not be cured.

She never imagined that one day she would be sitting on a high carriage, looking down at the Gao family who oppressed her and looked down upon her.

The three Shi brothers rode tall horses to clear the way in front, and You Yong led a group of officials behind.

You Yong looked at the light dust raised by the horses' hooves in front of him, and complained in his heart, who is the official official?Why does he feel like a little follower?
