Chapter 23 A Belated Farewell
"Time's up, get ready to go."
"Woo woo woo..."
In the distance, Zhao Shan's urging voice sounded at the right time. No matter whether it was the people who were to be exiled or the people who came to see them off, they all couldn't help sobbing. After this farewell, they were afraid that they would hardly have the chance to see each other again in this life.
"Give me the child."
After taking one last look at the people from the separated family, Shen Xiangwan took the child from Wei Linger.
"Ah."
Handing the child to her, Wei Ling'er took the initiative to help up her shocked mother, while Wei Chenghe pushed his brother consciously. Both siblings were very silent.
"Hurry up, be quick."
Seeing that they were dawdling, the escorts urged them impatiently and cracked their whips.
No matter whether they were exiled commoners or criminals, there were regulations on how much distance they had to walk every day. If they failed to arrive at the place of exile within the prescribed time, the escort would be punished. Faced with the threat of the whip, everyone had to bid farewell to their relatives and friends in tears and officially embark on the long journey of exile.
"and many more."
Along with a shout mixed with internal strength, a fast horse approached quickly and caught up with the exile team almost instantly.
"Qingying? Didn't he leave?"
Recognizing his identity, Wei Chenghe couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Qingying did not stop in front of them, but drove his horse towards Zhaoshan. After dismounting, he used his tall body to block the way and secretly stuffed something into the other party's hand. After the two whispered a few words, Qingying led the horse and strode towards them.
"Madam, it is not convenient for me to follow you now, so please be careful."
As he spoke, Qingying took out two huge packages and handed them to them. This was something the prince had arranged long ago. After they left the imperial city, he would reunite with them. Of course, they would just turn from light to covert and would follow them secretly.
"Thank you, thank you Qingying." Zhao Yuping was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes after taking the package. With these things, they would not have to worry about food and drink, at least in the short term.
"Madam, this is serious."
After nodding slightly, Qingying picked up a small bundle and handed it to Shen Xiangwan: "Princess, I'll leave the prince and his wife to you."
"Ah."
Shen Xiangwan didn't ask anything, took the package and put it on her back.
They didn't expect that someone would actually send them things, and judging from the size of the packages, there must be a lot of things. The old lady and the people from the second and third rooms couldn't help but get angry again, and they felt a little regretful in their hearts. If they hadn't been so eager to cut off ties with them before, they would have been able to take those things for themselves and would not have been humiliated by Shen Xiangwan like that.
In addition, there was another person who gnashed his teeth in hatred, and that was Shen Xiangyue who was with the Shen family. Clearly, when they were exiled in their previous life, no one gave them gifts. Why did Shen Xiangwan get some now? God was too unfair. Since he gave her a chance to be reborn, why did he let her be exiled? In the previous life, the Prime Minister's Mansion had always been prosperous!
Shen Xiangwan is not a fool, nor does he have sensory disorders. How could he not feel those angry glares?
But she didn't mean to take it to heart. As she said before, if they dared to show their claws to her, she would chop them off without any hesitation.
"Madam, Princess, take care!"
"Ah."
The escorts' urging voices sounded again, and Qingying took the initiative to withdraw from the team. Shen Xiangwan and others nodded, and slowly moved forward at the end of the team. The exile team of hundreds of people was moving away from the imperial city little by little. If nothing unexpected happened, they probably would never have the chance to come back in this life.
