The people who were exiled this time were almost all relatives of the crown prince and the fourth prince. The emperor couldn't restrain his desire to kill them all, and he didn't want to get a reputation as a cruel person, so he compromised and exiled them all.
He actually felt that being exiled was more torturous than killing them outright. After all, these people were born into wealth, were served by servants when they came in and out, and never suffered at all.
Wearing shackles and shackles and walking for more than two months, we went to a bitter and cold place. We don't even know how many people will survive.
But even if they all die, it can't be blamed on him.
Not only did he get rid of the thorn in his side, but he also gained a good reputation for benevolence. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
The emperor was originally very proud of this decision.
But this mood was before the palace was stolen. After that, he never felt happy every day. No matter how many times his people searched, they could not find any trace of the stolen treasure.
The situation was the same at the Princess Mansion. All traces were missing, and even the same situation occurred at the homes of those officials who were accustomed to flattering him.
There were rumors among the people that he was punished like this because of his lack of morality, which made him angry to death.
Enraged, the emperor ordered many people to be arrested and taken to Caishikou to behead them in public.
Blood flowed all over the floor, and the onlookers were frightened. After that, the rumors did not spread much anymore, but they only treated the symptoms rather than the root cause.
This behavior only frightened people on the surface, but it could not stop everyone from talking. No one can say it in words, but when it comes to the royal family, the look in their eyes is indescribably meaningful.
Even the atmosphere in the morning court became more and more strange. The emperor became more and more irritable, making his ministers more and more silent. They did not dare to say anything, for fear that the flames of war would catch on them if they were not careful.
But all this in Beijing has nothing to do with the Shen family who have already traveled twenty miles.
*
On the first day, everyone was barely able to keep up, the team was fairly organized, and no one was left behind.
The Shen family slowly moved to the front position so that they could respond immediately if there was any situation.
Shen Xingmian finally saw the eldest grandson of the former emperor. He was very thin and didn't know what he had gone through. He was huddled in a ball in the prison car, his eyes open blankly.
Just when she was about to look away, she saw that her dry well-like eyes suddenly moved, quickly locked in her direction, and looked at her intently.
At that moment, Shen Xingmian couldn't explain what he felt in his heart.
The apocalypse has made her numb, and she rarely sympathizes with the fate of others, because there is no benefit except adding pain to herself.
But she felt endless pain and hatred from the child's eyes, and the feeling even made her feel a little palpitated.
She lowered her head gently, pretending that she didn't feel anything was wrong, and continued to talk to her father next to her about what to do for dinner.
The weather in late summer is still very hot, the sun is scorching the earth, and it will not be cold even if you sleep on the ground at night. In such weather, the food in the package will go bad easily, so it is best to eat it quickly at night.
You can occasionally take some things out of her space, but you can't overdo it.
Fortunately, there are three people in the family who know her secrets and can help cover up a lot, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
When the team finally stopped, many people were so tired that they lay down on the spot. The heavy shackles made their shoulders and backs sore. As soon as they stopped, they felt like they would never get up again.
Thinking that there are still more than two months to go, all the feelings of despair and pessimism arise in my heart.
Just as the emperor thought, most of these people had never experienced any hardship and were born smoothly. This was probably the first hurdle they encountered on the road of life.
But deadly enough.
For these normally noble people, walking a few extra steps would kill them, let alone walking with a heavy load for a whole day.
Many people were so tired that they even closed their eyes. Apart from the occasional unconscious moans of "ouch, ouch," they couldn't even express a single complaint.
Like the Shen family, there are very few people who can move from the back of the team to the front.
Shen Xingmian didn't want to get too close to the chief official. He didn't even need to look at the person. He knew that the person was not a good person at the first glance.
Before leaving the city, he knelt down to a eunuch and was spineless. He then turned around and punched the exiled prisoner, whipping him at every turn to threaten him.
When given the opportunity, Shen Xingmian would definitely give him some color.
He is obviously a decent-looking person, but when he acts dishonestly, he looks much more hideous and hideous.
Really unwelcome.
The poor little emperor's eldest grandson was near him and was under strict surveillance along the way. Even if the prince's followers tried to save him, they probably wouldn't succeed.
While Shen Xingmian was observing the surroundings, Shen Yunting came over and said, "Daughter, there is a stream over there, let's go fill some water?"
After saying that, he turned to the rest of the family and said, "Quick, drink all the water in the water bag, and let's go fill it with some new water."
The maid quickly said: "Miss, you have a rest, it's better for us to go."
Shen Yun stopped and waved his hands: "I just happened to take Mian'er to wash up. You guys should rest quickly. You are the hardest working along the way.
I went to wash up after a while and missed the water source. I don’t know when I will encounter it next time. "
Seeing that she could not be persuaded, the maid stopped talking and sat down to rest.
Shen Xingmian found a deserted spot by the stream and filled the collected water bags with low-level supernatural water, so that no one would notice anything strange and could recover some strength.
It can also help cure some minor ailments that are not serious.
As for the water she used for grandpa and the others, of course it was the highest-grade supernatural water in her hand, which was as good as clouds and mud, otherwise grandpa would not have recovered so quickly.
"Mom, you said grandpa is obviously well, but he has to keep pretending and lie down all the time. Isn't it painful?"
Shen Xingmian was very dishonest when sleeping. He would even fall on the bed when he was a child. Although he got better when he grew up, he still had strange shapes.
So she felt a little distressed when she thought of her grandfather who had been unable to move and could only move quietly with the bumps of the donkey cart.
Shen Yunting was also a little melancholy, but he still comforted her and said, "Your grandpa has a tough temperament. He will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty. At worst, he will sleep during the day and get up and move around at night while others are sleeping."
Well, it's not impossible...
"Then I can accompany my grandpa at night and see if I can find some prey and stuff it into the space to raise, so that no matter where we go, we will have meat to eat!"
As soon as she mentioned this, Shen Xingmian became excited and quickly looked into the stream to see if there were any small fish.
No matter how small the fish is, it is still meat!
Add some salt, coat it in flour and fry it. It's crispy and fragrant. Just thinking about it makes you drool.
