Chapter 63 Let’s go with you tonight
It was getting dark, and the escorting officers lit torches one after another, and lined up on both sides from front to back.
The road was difficult to walk at night. Fortunately, the Min family caravan that went ahead left some signs that needed attention, which saved the large forces behind from many pitfalls.
With guidance from the front, as long as those behind you obey and follow, there won't be too many problems.
By this time after walking for a day, people’s energy begins to weaken. Fatigue, hunger, and sleepiness are all present. Any movement in the night is easily amplified, let alone in a team of more than a hundred people. Occasionally he would sigh and cry out in pain due to the friction of the wound.
The guards nearby were upset and cursed: "Hurry up, get to the place early, and rest early! What the hell are you talking about? Who asked you to commit crimes and be punished? This is your life! Hurry up! Let’s go!”
He’s running around in the dark, not knowing where he’s going or where he’s going. If he stumbles, he’ll stumble over something, even if there are torches around him. It was illuminated, but the light source was limited. Most of the prisoners were still staring at the state of the prisoners in front, and followed behind.
“If I had known that I would be so miserable in exile, I might as well have cut me down in the capital.” Someone tripped several times on the branches and stones on the ground and couldn’t help but said irritably.
Some people were crying as they walked, and there were constant sighs all around.
A prisoner asked: "We are being driven forward in such a hurry. Can we have a good night when we reach the village in front?"
A sneer came in the night, "What good things are you thinking about? A comfortable night is for the gentlemen. How does it have anything to do with prisoners like me?"
"Who says it's not the case? It's because they want to feel comfortable. That’s why we’re in such a hurry.”
I don’t know who it was, joking in the night: “Money can make the world go round. Those who are not exiles are all exiles. Look, we are like those. Do people live the same life? "
In one sentence, I don’t know who to target.
In the crowd, those who were doing well did not say a word.
There is no need to respond to this weirdness.
At this stage, even if you have three melons and two dates, what advantage does it have against the cruel comparison of fate?
I didn’t even get out of Qiuling Pass, I was exhausted half my life, and I don’t know what the future will be like. I just live day by day. Now I only care about myself, but I don’t care about the lives of others.
Having the ability to protect yourself is a short-term victory. Being able to reach the exile safely is the beginning of survival.
During the evening break, there was no meal.
On the way back, everyone was very hungry, and some people fell to the side because of lack of physical strength. The Yamen came over and pinched people, and then sprayed a mouthful of water on their faces, finally waking them up from their fainting state.
As long as you are not dead, you have to continue on your way when you wake up.
The Xie family members had been walking for a day, and at night, their physical strength began to fail them. The little Xie Jiarui was carried by Xie Wuying and several Xie family guards in turns. Wuying fell asleep on her body.
Xie Yuchuan glanced at it and whispered: "You can hold it all the way and give it to me."
Xie Wuying waved his hand, "Don't worry, Brother Six, your injuries are not healed yet. Well, let me hold you, little master. It’s okay. We’ll be here in just over an hour.”
Xie Wenjie said from behind, “Then give it to me.”
Xie Wuying looked at him. The thin body glanced at him and said, "You're shaken. I'm afraid you'll throw Brother Rui down."
Xie Wenjie looked slightly embarrassed, "My body is not as strong as yours."
"Look back. When you get to Liaozhou, I will teach you how to practice. I told you not to listen and study all day long. Do you regret it now?"
The two brothers grew up together in their hometown in Huaiyang and knew each other well. Many thanks to the family for their laughter.
Xie Wenjie said: "When we get to Bianzhou, I will learn from Brother Six!"
Xie Wuying raised her eyebrows and looked at him with sympathy in her eyes.
“What’s that look in your eyes?” Although it was dark, the two of them were close.
When the Xie family guards behind him heard this, they also became happy. I don't know which hero helped Xie Wenjie answer his doubts, and said: "Sixth Young Master generally doesn't teach people. If he did, it would be harder than training in the Xie family's army. Young Master Wenjie, I don't want to learn martial arts from Sixth Young Master."
< br>
Xie Wenjie couldn't laugh or cry, and said gratefully: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me."
Zhang Dayi, who was traveling with the Xie family next to him, heard this and was quite interested.
"I have always heard that the Xie family is strict in running the army, and the soldiers are brave and good at fighting. I didn't know that there is such an interesting story. The young general is really not a mortal."
Several guards of the Xie family have a good impression of Zhang Dayi. After all, the boss is the only poor person who was sent to the frontier because he spoke for the Xie family gods.
Xie Yuchuan's attitude towards him is the attitude of the Xie family towards him.
If you can share the blessings and hardships on the road of exile, you can be regarded as one of your own. When Zhang Dayi spoke, everyone also came and went and chatted.
Zhang Dayi didn't care about the Xie family's way of running the army. He never tainted the slightest bit of other people's housekeeping skills. Old Hanlin was very interested in the Xie family's way of conducting themselves.
Especially Xie Yuchuan, he is now the only male left in the Xie family.
There is another Xie Jiarui in the direct line. He is too young. Now he is ignorant and does not know how many years it will take to grow up. Therefore, what kind of future the Xie family will lead in the future depends only on Xie Yuchuan.
When Zhang Dayi was sentenced to be exiled from Beijing, he thought about it in prison for three days and three nights before he finally understood it.
In today's world, it is difficult for loyal ministers to be loyal, and traitors are in power. Even if you have the ambition to reach the sky, it will be difficult to reach the sky without luck.
It’s not that he didn’t see how many people were protecting themselves in the court, but he always felt that under the bright sky and the chaos of the court, there had to be some people who could tell the truth, right?
In the end, Zhang Dayi discovered that even though he had learned a lot, he still failed to fully understand the teachings of his revered master.
The emperor is no longer the hard-working emperor he was when he first ascended the throne. He has all the wealth and glory in his own body, and the whole world belongs to the royal family. Now, except for the serious worries of a few people, he still has no desire to work hard to solve the problem.
Since ancient times, what goes up and what goes down works. The emperor is greedy for wealth and honor, and all the officials are fawning over him. How can the people still live a good life?
Zhang Hanlin figured this out and felt that going into exile with the Xie family was not necessarily a bad thing.
Death early, death later, is death. If he doesn't leave the capital, with his temper that offends him from time to time, the next time he offends Long Yan, he may die if there is no Liaozhou to exile him.
He has also observed Xie Yuchuan these days. This son is worthy of being a descendant of the Xie family. With Xie Yuchuan here, the Xie family will not be afraid of turning around in the future.
What's more, Xie Yuchuan can still communicate with the gods now.
When I think about things that go beyond previous knowledge, Mr. Zhang, the old Hanlin, feels a little itchy in his heart.
Tu Hua went back to eat, changed into a warm long down jacket and came out to see Xie Yuchuan.
She had never hiked at night before. She had participated in a wild hiking gathering before and was led by a friend.
But it is the first time in my life to walk on the moon on such a primitive road.
So, as soon as she walked to Xie Yuchuan, she sent him a message:
"Xie Yuchuan, I will go with you tonight."
Xie Yuchuan, who was walking across a shallow pit, suddenly heard a voice in his ear, and his mind that had been hesitating for a long time suddenly settled. He suddenly realized that he had been uneasy for a long time because of the family god's silent arrival and departure.
The familiar aroma floats, the right intensity.
This time.
The family god is neither far nor close to him.
