Chapter 68 Compensation? The goal of hard work!

"Master, who are you talking to?"

Looking around, the butler asked curiously.

"No, let's go. I want to go and check out the food and herbs myself."

Shaking his head, the county magistrate carefully put away the note and prepared to walk out.

"Yes."

The butler was no longer hesitant, and the master and servant walked faster than each other. As for how excited they were after seeing the food, there is no need to elaborate here.

Over in Old Yang's yard, the Yan family members had also finished the breakfast sent by Wei Chengyi one after another. According to the rules, they still had to be shackled and wear handcuffs and shackles, but when the earth dragon turned over, all those things were lost. Old Zhou didn't ask the government to make up for it, and Yan Lang would not be stupid enough to bring it up on his own initiative. It was as if they had all forgotten about it.

"After we set out, try to follow our donkey cart and don't fall too far behind."

Before the escort urged them to set off, Wei Chengyi found Yan Lang and whispered to him that he didn't know how Yan Lang died in his previous life, but no matter what, he would save his life in this life, and after arriving in Chenzhou, he would get them out of the exile camp as soon as possible.

"Well, I know what to do."

Yan Lang nodded. Ever since he met him, he had let things go and just wanted to live a good life and protect his family.

"Late night."

At the same time, Shen Yishan personally brought the Shen family to find Shen Xiangwan. Their donkey cart was so rare that even though they knew she was not close to them and even had resentment in their hearts, they did not want to miss the opportunity to ride on the donkey cart. Moreover, everyone knew that Shen Xiangwan was rich. If they could really succeed in coaxing her, they would no longer have to worry about their food, clothing, housing and transportation in the future.

"Is something wrong?"

Seeing them, Shen Xiangwan frowned reflexively. Are these people shameless? She has already said it so bluntly, but they still want to come closer. Do they really think she dare not take ruthless action to deal with them?

"Wanwan, after all, I am still your father, we..."

"Are you worthy?"

Shen Yishan organized his words and was about to make a long speech, but Shen Xiangwan did not give him the chance. A light question made him freeze in an instant, and the rest of the words he wanted to say were stuck deep in his throat.

"Shen Xiangwan, what's your attitude? He is your father."

After a brief moment of shock, Jiang rushed out like a madman. His attitude didn't seem like that of his own daughter at all. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the murderer of her father.

Turning his gaze to her, Shen Xiangwan sneered sarcastically: "You are wrong, Madam Shen, he is Shen Xiangyue's father, not mine, and you, huh!"

Pretending to look her up and down, Shen Xiangwan didn't say much, but just had a look of sneer on his face, letting her experience it herself.

"You, rebellious girl!"

What's that look in her eyes?
Jiang raised her hand and wanted to slap her, but Shen Xiangwan grabbed her wrist and said, "Mrs. Shen, please respect yourself. If you do it again, I won't be polite to you anymore."

"ah··"

After saying this coldly, Shen Xiangwan directly shook off her hand. Jiang screamed subconsciously, and it was unclear whether it was out of pain or annoyance, or perhaps both.

"Wanwan, if you really care about Yue'er that much, we can distance ourselves from her..."

"Master (Dad)!"

After staring at her for a while, Shen Yishan spoke again, but he was interrupted by several voices at the same time, including Jiang, Shen Xiangyue, Shen Xiangdong and Shen Xiangnan, who all stared at him in disbelief, obviously unable to accept his statement. "Get ready to go!"

At the same time, the escorts urged them to set off, and Wei Chengyi also came back. Just as he raised his whip to drive the donkey away, Shen Yishan ignored the glares of his children and excitedly stepped forward and said, "Wanwan, I am your father, how could I not love you? Maybe we were negligent in the past, I promise that I will only love you from now on, let your father make it up to you."

"compensate?"

With a pout, Shen Xiangwan pushed his hand away mercilessly: "The belated compensation is cheaper than grass. The former Shen Xiangwan is dead. The current me doesn't need him! Let's go."

"Ah."

Without even looking at Shen Yishan who seemed to be in great shock, Wei Chengyi swung the whip, and the donkey began to walk slowly after feeling the pain.

"Shen Xiangwan!"

Behind them, Shen Yishan roared unwillingly, but they were destined to not turn back. Shen Xiangwan was not just saying that in anger. Regardless of whether his compensation was sincere or not, the original owner who needed their love was really dead!

At noon, the two exile teams set out on time. Because they had no money left, they could not get a separate room, so they had been gathered in the main hall for the past two days. As they were not well fed or clothed, most of them caught a cold, which was getting worse. Severe coughing and heavy breathing could be heard almost everywhere along the way.

After the team left the city, all they saw along the way were ruins and disaster victims with their families. The scene was extremely desolate.

"Today is already the third day. If we hurry up, the court should have received the report, right?"

Leaning on the bicycle frame, Shen Xiangwan murmured, it was not that she was being too sanctimonious, but that the description in words was far less shocking than what she saw with her own eyes. The cities and villages were desolate after the earthquake, and the people affected were so miserable.

"So what if I received it?"

Turning his head to look at her, Wei Chengyi drove the donkey cart and continued, "The court will not provide disaster relief at all. They will just let them fend for themselves."

He was not exaggerating, but had witnessed it with his own eyes in his previous life: the emperor would not care about these invisible people at all, and the court followed suit and was indifferent. To them, the money in the national treasury was their private property, so how could they give it to the lowly poor people?

"Will the imperial court really just ignore it?"

Hearing this, Shen Xiangwan could not help but frown. Just now, she even felt a little regretful that she should not have emptied the treasury. But if the emperor would not provide disaster relief, then why would she regret it? How could the dog emperor be so high up and exploit the people? The throne represents not only supreme power, but also the responsibility that should be shouldered, to benefit the people and protect the stability and prosperity of one side.

"The court today is no longer the court during the reigns of Taizu, Taizong and Yingzong. They simply cannot see the suffering people."

The emperor was incompetent and only cared about his own enjoyment, so naturally all the officials followed suit. There were officials who truly worked for the country and the people, but most of them did not live long. Those who had a slightly better life mostly lost their official positions and could no longer plead for the people. The current emperor has only been in power for a few years, but the court is rotten to the core and is beyond redemption.

"Grass!"

Shen Xiangwan swore for a rare moment. If she had known earlier, she should have cleaned out the residences of the officials in the imperial city one by one. Anyway, their money was all the hard-earned money of the people. Instead of letting them squander it, it would be better to give it to her. She could use it on the people when there was a chance.

【Wanwan, come with me to overthrow the emperor's rule. 】

Reaching out and holding her hand, Wei Chengyi looked at her and conveyed his thoughts, saying that after his rebirth, he had not known what he should do. Gathering the guards and the secret forces in the palace were all subconscious actions, and protecting his family was also instinctive. It was not until this moment, seeing how worried she was for the people, that he finally had a goal.

Turning her head to meet his eyes, Shen Xiangwan did not respond immediately. Instead, she stared at him deeply for a long while before curling her lips and saying, "Okay."

Since the dog emperor does not cherish his people, then they will do it for him. She can't guarantee that she will do better than the dog emperor based on her own character, but at least, she will not watch the people suffer. Wei Chengyi gave her a goal to work hard for in this world. At this moment, she is truly willing to integrate into this world.
