Chapter 13 On the road to exile!

Shen Lanxi looked at a family of six: "Do you really want to accompany the Shen family to exile?"

Wang's mother bowed and saluted: "Miss, our Wang family has been serving the Shen family. There are no other relatives. Our family is the lady’s companion, and we are willing to serve the lady. Please don’t drive us away!” After Mrs. Wang said this, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Shen Lanxi pondered for a moment: "Okay, you will serve me loyally from now on, and I will ensure that your family will have enough food and clothing for three generations!"

"Thank you, Miss!"

Exiled prisoners still have to pay Stay at the city gate for a while to give the prisoner's family time to see them off. Taking advantage of this time, Chunxiao took out the steamed buns and tea eggs she bought from Yunxuelou the day in advance, and took four side dishes and placed them on the plate, placed them on the folding dining table that Qiu Shuang had laid out in advance, and set up the stools.

“Miss, it’s so shabby outside, let’s just make do with something to eat!”

Yunxuelou’s buns are famous in the capital. There are five kinds of buns on a set, plus a few stacks of side dishes. The meter-long folding table can barely fit in!

Don’t give in, really don’t give in!

“Let’s keep a low profile when we go out. We don’t need to set a table for dinner in the future. Just eat it in your hand!”

The dry food prepared by Chunxiao and Qiu Shuang was steamed buns. When they heard what Shen Lanxi said, they immediately felt aggrieved for the young lady.

Where has the lady ever suffered like this before?

She also saw the food in the hands of the two little girls.

"I will eat whatever you guys eat from now on, no need to prepare it specially for me!"

Chun Xiao looked aggrieved: "Miss, we still have money, you don't have to wrong yourself so much. ”

Shen Lanxi naturally has her own plans.

“We are traveling with all the Shen family members, a total of eighty-nine people. Seeing that we eat so well, will you ask for it from us?”

“Ask it from us, Do you want to give it to me?”

“I gave it to my father, mother, grandparents, brothers and sisters. If they know that I have food and money, will they let me give it to my uncles, concubines, concubines, and those who have been sunk? Will my family members who have been implicated ask me to give them food and money because they are implicated? "

Chun Xiao Qiu Shuang stopped talking.

Shen Lanxi waved her hand to ask Mother Li and her family to come over. Before officially setting off, she had to teach these people a lesson!

Less than half an hour, the black dot at the city gate began to move, and the exile team began to set off!

After being taught by Shen Lanxi, several people hurriedly hid those who could be hidden in the carriage, and tied those who could not be hidden under the carriage with ropes.

Two horse-drawn carriages and one ox-cart followed the exile team at a short distance. It was not until the exile team stopped to rest at noon that Shen Lanxi walked towards the Yamen carrying the things she had prepared.

When the officials looked at her, she raised a large bag of things in her hand, as well as two water jars.

I walked to a place three meters away and stopped, opened the bag, and revealed the contents inside.

Steamed buns, pickled vegetables, pancakes, two roast chickens and one pork elbow in sauce!

The thing was right where the Yamen could see it at a glance. After confirming that there was nothing else, a strong Yamen with a knife across his chest came over to ask.

“What are you doing?”

Shen Lanxi winked at the government official and took out a small bag of silver from her pocket. The officer immediately understood and put it in his pocket by turning around.

"Sir, I am a businessman going to Dongchuan to do business. I have been entrusted by the relatives of the exiled prisoners. Please look after them on the way!"

There are rules for escorting prisoners, and they are not allowed to eat food made by outsiders.

Shen Lanxi walked directly to the food, broke off a piece of food and ate it in her stomach!

The Yamen raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, then added another weight of money and said, "Which family is the prisoner from?"

"From the Shen family!"

Yamen: "Go and call some of them."

Shen Lanxi walked towards the Shen family honestly.

The Shen family has gone through ups and downs, and also experienced ten days in prison. Everyone is wilted, and their eyes have lost their former sparkle. "Yuan Jing, Yuan Jun, Yuan Qing, come with me to get food!" These three are her brothers from the same mother.

The three of them looked at her in disbelief, their eyes slowly changing from dull to shocked!

"Are you the eldest sister?" Shen Yuanqing, the youngest brother, exclaimed.

Shen Lanxi noticed that the other members of the Shen family were looking here and did not talk nonsense to the three of them.

"Follow me!" He said this and turned around and left!

The three brothers looked at each other. Shen Yuanqing was the first to catch up, followed by the other two.

"Sister, why are you dressed like this and why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in the palace?"

Now is not a good time to talk!

“Shut up and stop talking!”

The Yamen kept staring at them.

A few steps to the place where the food was placed, Shen Lanxi asked the three brothers to break off a piece of food and eat it.

The three brothers believed in their elder sister. Although they did not understand what the elder sister wanted to do, they still followed her words and took a piece of each piece of food.

The food in Tianlao was not delicious. The three brothers were so hungry that they felt dizzy. Everyone wished they could break off a big piece, especially the roast chicken and pork ribs. They wished they could devour them in one bite.

Seeing that the three brothers were eating well and not seeming to have any problems, the Yamen immediately went up and kicked each of them.

“Take the Wotou and leave!”

It’s better to leave for the sake of money, otherwise we would have let them go.

Shen Lanxi nodded to the three brothers, said a few flattering words to the Yamen, and went to the carriage.

The three brothers Shen Yuanjing kept drooling when they looked at the meat. They were afraid of being beaten, so they hurried away holding the steamed bun!

After a while, the government officials gathered together to feast.

After the three brothers returned home, they immediately ran to their father and mother.

"Father, mother, this is from the eldest sister!"

The rest of the Shen family gathered together and whispered when the three brothers were called over. Now they saw the three brothers Come back and get over immediately.

After Shen Congwen and his wife heard that it was their daughter, they didn't even bother to take the cornstarch and quickly grabbed their son to question him.

"You said the person who called you away just now was your eldest sister? Isn't your eldest sister in the palace? Why are you here?"

Shen Yuanjing quickly begged for mercy: "I don't know , the eldest sister didn’t say anything.”

Shen Yuanjun added in an aggrieved tone; “The eldest sister brought a lot of food to the Yamen, but the Yamen didn’t let us take any meat. "

Shen Congwen seemed to suddenly understand something. He sighed and let go of his son.

“Our whole family is in exile, and your eldest sister will definitely have a hard time too!”

The Shen family was silent.

"Eat something, Yuan Jing, and give some of the steamed buns to your grandparents!" Shen Congwen took two steamed buns from his son's hand, one for himself and the other to his wife.

"Xinrou, let's have something to eat. Lan Xi finally brought it to us!"

The former Princess Minrou also had her title revoked, and now she is in a mess. Fa, the whole person looks like he has aged more than ten years!

When Shen Congwen saw that his wife didn't answer, he sighed and put the steamed bun into her hand.

The food eaten in the prison was all rotten, and there was only one meal a day. Although it was only ten days, all the Shen family members lost a lot of weight. It's like this in the prison, so what good food can be found on the road to exile?
