God really dotes on Miss Caiwei! No, if she shouts here, she will be exiled there!
Prince Xian failed in his rebellion and was beheaded in the Jinluan Palace. His descendants over the age of fourteen were sentenced to death with a thousand knives. Those under the age of fourteen were given poison, wine, and poison. His unmarried daughters and granddaughters were not allowed to become officials in the temple. prostitute.
The married daughter's family was like Song Wanru's, who was exiled thousands of miles to a bitter cold place in the north. Eighteen other families were exiled with the Gu family, totaling 368 people.
Song Wanru and Gu Huainan are the daughters and sons-in-law of Prince Xian and are the main criminals. They wear prison uniforms and shackles, while the others only wear prison uniforms.
On the way to exile in his previous life, after leaving the capital, Gu Jingzhi used money to bribe the escort officials. After leaving the capital, Gu Jingchao carried Gu Huainan on his back, and he carried Song Wanru on his back.
One can imagine the hardships of this journey. Song Wanru was not grateful at all. Her own son would have to bear the burden in this life! My good brother Jing Xing will probably be arrested today! Only along the way, he didn't know how to treat his third brother Jing Shen.
The two captains, the captain and the deputy, led forty officers and escorted 368 prisoners. As soon as they left the north gate of the capital, two people wearing prison uniforms were pushed over there. The leader was Twelve-year-old Jing Xing, the tall and thin boy behind him was Gu Jingshen who vomited blood and died in front of him.
The two brothers were two years apart. At that time, Gu Jingzhi was raised in Song Wanru's house in Ruyi Courtyard. He watched Jing Shen grow up little by little from his infancy until he ate poisonous snacks for him.
The moment he saw Jing Shen today, he forgot his hatred for Song Wanru, only excitement and pity remained. Gu Jingzhi ran over, passed Jing Xing, and hugged Jing Shen.
"Second brother, are you in good health?" Jing Shen knew that he had fallen into an ice cave. "I have been treating illnesses in the south. When I learned that you fell into an ice cave, I became anxious and fell ill again. Ahem, my grandmother After my death, my unfilial grandson failed to fulfill his filial piety before his death, so my second brother did it for me. Cough cough cough cough..."
Gu Jingzhi picked him up and said as he walked: "Jing Shen, I've been fine for a long time. You don't have to worry about me. If your body is like this, my grandmother won't blame you." He would only blame Song Wanru and Aunt Dong who killed her. Gu Jingzhi's The eyes seemed to have been tempered with poison, and they shot towards the old woman not far away who was crying and bidding farewell to Song Wanru.
When passing by them, Song Wanru vaguely heard Song Wanru whispering: "Mom, the portrait must be hidden!"
portrait? When he visited King Xian in Zhuangzi in the north of the city at night, he spied on him. Prince Xian was looking at the portrait of Concubine Wan Shu obsessively in his study late at night. Could it be that one, in Song Wanru's hands, might it be related to the gold mine? Is it related to Prince Xian’s gold hiding place?
He put down Gu Jingshen and let him lean against his father. He walked a dozen steps away. He raised his hand and Gu Nian, who was far away, walked over quickly, "Second Master, what are your orders?"
"Have you seen Grandma Dong? Follow her and kill her!" Gu Jingzhi said calmly.
"You want... to kill someone?" Gu Nian was shocked.
Only then did Gu Jingzhi remember that at this time, Gu Nian had not been on the battlefield or spilled human blood, "What? Don't you dare? Aunt Dong killed my grandmother, and I need her life!"
The Gu family has been guarding the master of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion for several generations. The old lady was actually killed by Aunt Dong. She avenged her master. Gu Nian did his duty and nodded firmly, "I dare!"
Gu Jingzhi nodded appreciatively, "She is very skilled in martial arts, bring a few more people with you, and go to her residence to find a painting, a picture of a beauty. Be sure to find it. I will be of great use."
Gu Nian clasped his fists, "Second Master, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely fulfill their mission!" He glanced at Fan Xing, who was as beautiful as the flowers beside Aunt Dong, and said, "You don't need to kill Miss Fan Xing! I can't do it!"
He dares to kill an old lady with gray hair and chicken skin, but he is timid about a beautiful girl. Is this still the general beside him? Gu Jingzhi rolled his eyes at him, "No, don't let her see you before she dies!"
Here, after leaving the capital, the exiled team stayed here for a quarter of an hour. Firstly, they wanted to leave their homeland, as they might never come back again. Secondly, they wanted to see off their relatives and friends. Many people would send money, and those who understand the world would also Bribe the escort officials and ask them to take care of their relatives and friends.
Escorting prisoners is a hard job, but it is also a good and lucrative job. No, the elder of the Gu family gave a thousand taels, and the second wife of the Gu family, Cai Shi, who was expelled from the family tree, also gave a thousand taels. Relatives of other families also gave a thousand taels. He glanced at this place, waiting for them to leave and coming over to bribe the officer!
After delivering the money, Cai's heart fell to the ground, and she cried and said to her family: "Father, my daughter-in-law and Jing Hui bought two carts of things and will go to the north with the exile team soon."
Gu Jingzhi waved his hand: "Second aunt, no. Jingzhi made an agreement with you at that time. You will go with Gu Ye and the others without waiting for us." Jing Hui was born with a frail disease and asked her to be exiled with her. She had not gone through all the trouble in the first place. Was it all in vain?
The old Marquis shook his head when he looked at her and said, "Second daughter-in-law, if you still think of me as your father-in-law, just listen to Jing Zhi."
Caishi could only obey what her father-in-law said, and asked her daughter to come and say goodbye to her grandfather and all her relatives. A skinny young man came with him. Several whip marks were clearly visible on his face, "Second Master, my subordinate Kang Ping bids farewell to my master. See you in the north." ." He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, then stood up and waited in the distance.
In a short quarter of an hour, the captain rode his horse from front to back and shouted: "The team is ready to go!"
The officers waved their whips and made a "snap" sound, "Form the team and let's go!"
Cries arose everywhere, and those who were bidding farewell cried loudly together with the exiles. The whips were swung on their bodies. The exiles were in pain and were too frightened to make a sound. The farewell cries became even louder from behind.
Gu Huainan's body was smeared with the Gu family's golden sore medicine, and although he recovered well, it was still difficult to walk while wearing shackles. Gu Jingzhi took one of his father's hands to help him save energy and reduce pain. The lame old man supported his third grandson Gu Jingshen and almost carried him.
Gu Jingxing was struggling to support Song Wanru, and muttered: "That fool Gu Jingchao is very strong and has no filial piety. Why don't you help your mother?"
Song Wanru didn't expect the shackles to be so heavy, and she was exhausted after walking only four or five miles. Panting heavily, he shouted: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I really can't walk anymore. Let Jing Chao come and help me."
Song Wanru usually behaves generously and kindly. Although her father rebelled and the Gu family was exiled thousands of miles away, the eldest lady hated her. Seeing how tired she looked, she still couldn't be cruel, "Jing Chao..."
"Oh no, Cai Lian is tired. She can't walk." Cai Wei herself couldn't walk. A nine-year-old child's legs are only so long. She took two steps and one step at a time. Her face turned red and her neck was thick from exhaustion.
Cai Lian is stronger than a calf. He spends most of the day practicing martial arts. How can he get anywhere within two miles! After listening to Caiwei's words, she cooperated and sat on the ground with her.
"Don't stay, get up quickly." Following the official's voice, a whip came over. Neither of them felt any pain. It turned out that Gu Jingchao grabbed the whip and swung it. The official who was wielding the whip flew up into the air and fell to the ground.
"What's wrong! That criminal is so bold, he dares to attack an official!" Captain Ji Kuo ran over on horseback. Gu Jingzhi flew faster than him, picked up Caiwei from the ground, and checked whether she was injured.
"He hits someone with a whip, and if he hits him again, I will kill him." Gu Jingchao was the most powerful general in the Qiantai Dynasty army. Ji Kuo had heard about it a long time ago, and did not dare to come forward after hearing Gu Jingchao's words.
One of the officials was on good terms with the one just now. If he didn't believe in this evil, it wouldn't matter if he was a fierce general in the army. He had even escorted a high-ranking official and relatives of the emperor, weren't they also honest?
He stepped forward and shouted loudly, "The condemned prisoner still thinks that he is a young master. Now he is in the hands of the official. I have the final say whether he is round or flat." He raised his whip high. About to fall, it suddenly stopped. At some point, Gu Jingchao had drifted in front of him and pinched his neck tightly.
The captain advised: "Uncle, Uncle Gu, please stop! Someone will be killed!" Seeing that the man rolled his eyes and was about to die, he hurriedly begged Gu Jingzhi, "Second Master!, Ancestor! Please persuade the uncle!" !”
"Brother, stop it! Spare him this time." Gu Jingzhi said, "However, my brother's action requires someone's life. I can persuade him to stop this time. You must be careful next time and don't provoke him again!"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Jingchao let go of the officer's neck and swung his hand at Ji Kuo's horse. The horse's head immediately burst out of its brains and fell to the ground before he could roar. Ji Kuo was also very good at martial arts and jumped far away in time. , when he stood up, he saw that his beloved horse's legs were still kicking.
The officials gathered around and looked at Ji Kuo, waiting for his order.
Gu Jingzhi was not worried at all that the Gu family would fight with the emperor. He looked towards the capital and couldn't help but smile. The ninth prince showed up a little late!
