Although exile exempts prisoners from the death penalty, it is essentially a punishment for prisoners. The exile road is three thousand miles away, and it is normal for there to be casualties.
But as escort officers, they have the responsibility to minimize such casualties.
Overhearing their conversation, everyone in the team fell silent.
Although Zhu was at fault, wasn't the reason why she died because Song deliberately knocked her off the cliff?
When it comes to responsibility, it must be the Song family.
But these officials had almost no intention of pursuing the case, and continued to protect Dafang as always.
They finally saw clearly that Dafang had bribed all the officials!
Fearing that one day they would accidentally disappear because of offending Dafang, no one dared to have any idea of Dafang.
They couldn't afford to offend him, they really couldn't afford to offend him. They couldn't offend Dafang at all.
That bandit leader was so fierce, and he was chopped with a knife.
The Song family was simply more terrifying than the official cadres. They were tired of living, so they dared to press forward.
In the past few days since they set foot on the road to exile, everyone has never been as peaceful as at this moment, and everyone is as well-behaved as a quail.
During the chaos just now, several people in the team were injured by bandits. They had no medicine in their hands, and Wu Da couldn't just leave them alone.
Although it is not a fatal injury, if it drags on, it may become a fatal injury.
Fortunately, when he was replenishing supplies in Fuyang County, Wu Da prepared a lot of medicine just in case.
He took out the medicine and directed several officers to apply medicine and bandage to the injured person.
Then people were asked to count the swords and horses sent by the bandits and prepare to go on the road.
The team has been delayed here for a long time. Although it is only three thousand miles from here to Yongzhou, the road becomes more difficult as we go further back.
Especially when entering the Baiyue territory, the hundreds of thousands of mountains there have always been a huge headache for the escort officers.
They should leave a little more time in the second half of the journey to avoid any accidents and miss the escort deadline.
When Mrs. Lu woke up, the team had already started on their way. Little Miss Lu Sining had been staying with her mother and was the first to see her open her eyes.
She quickly stuffed her smelly feet into her little cotton boots, raised her little face and said with a sweet smile: "Mom! You finally woke up! Then Ning Ning won't accompany you, I'm going to my sister-in-law."
Turning around, facing her mother with her buttocks, she crawled under the trolley.
Mrs. Lu Er: "..."
Before I could express my joy and excitement about regaining something, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart.
What a little heartless stinky girl!
It’s no wonder she’s so worried about her!
"Where is Yuanyuan? How is Yuanyuan?" Mrs. Lu turned around and wanted to look back, but her sight was blocked by the goods piled on the donkey cart, and she could not see behind.
Mrs. Lu Si knew that she was worried and whispered: "Yuan Yuan is fine. He is not injured. He is driving the car. Ning Ning is not scared either. Yuan Yuan is well protected."
No matter how quirky Ning Ning is, she is still a five-year-old child. How can she not be afraid of something like this? What's more, she also experienced falling off a cliff.
They all looked sinister.
But the little girl Ning Ning is not afraid at all.
In fact, she wasn't afraid. It was just that someone blocked all dangers from her.
Mrs. Lu Er was moved and her eyes were slightly red: "I know it all, and I will remember Yuan Yuan's good deeds in my heart."
"It's not unreasonable for the little girl to be so clingy to Yuanyuan. If it had been anyone else, I would have felt disgusted. I feel that it is better for my daughter to be close to others than to me, my own mother, but Yuanyuan is worth it."
Mrs. Lu Si pursed her lips and smiled, but she was a little envious of Yuan Yuan's kindness to these little brats.
She doesn't feel at ease with anyone An An gets close to, but she feels safe getting close to Yuanyuan.
"What are you doing?" Seeing Mrs. Lu holding a basket of thread, Mrs. Lu sat up.
"I saw that Yuan Yuan likes the black kite flower. I picked a cloak and embroidered a few more flowers for Yuan Yuan. There is no girl who doesn't like to look at anything."
She had no choice but to dress plainly. She wanted to give Yuan Yuan the best under limited conditions.
Mrs. Lu Second took a quick look and saw that the white cloak that Yuan Yuan brought back from her previous trip to Fuyang County had been taken out by Mrs. Lu alone.
It's not such expensive material.
A black kite has been embroidered with purple silk thread on the hem of the clothes, which looks like a blue butterfly and is particularly beautiful and beautiful.
"You are still clever and clever. Yuanyuan will definitely like it after seeing it. When we get to the place of exile, I will open a restaurant to make more money and prepare good food for Yuan Yuan."
Mrs. Lu felt a sense of urgency in her heart as she listened to the conversation between her sisters-in-law. She was not as good at cooking as her second younger siblings, and her embroidery was not as good as her fourth younger siblings. If they were to take away Yuan Yuan's love, what kind of mother would she be?
Mrs. Lu thought hard for a while. She was usually just a housekeeper in the house, and she was well versed in things like managing the middle school. She couldn't train Yuanyuan like other ladies, right? No way, no way.
However, the peach blossom cakes and peach blossom stuffing she made were barely acceptable.
There are many peach trees growing in Lingnan. When she gets to the place of exile, she will plant more peach trees and make more for Yuan Yuan. Yuan Yuan will definitely like them.
The ladies had their own thoughts, and none of them had ever cared so much about their husbands.
After leaving the forest and walking two miles, the team finally arrived at the village Wu Da mentioned.
The village is not big, with only a few dozen households.
When the team arrived at the entrance of the village, they met an elderly woodcutter and were about to step forward to ask.
The woodcutter heard the movement behind him and, carrying a bundle of firewood on his back, slowly turned around like a turtle moving to take a look.
When he saw the crowd of people, including horses and swords, he was startled, threw the bundle of firewood, and disappeared with a swish.
"Old..." Uncle.
Wu Da opened his mouth and was dumbfounded.
An old woodcutter in his sixties or seventies walking like flying in the wind and snow?
There is no need to be so scared, they are just asking for convenience.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu said: "We are all waiting at the entrance of the village. Xiao Wu, please go into the village and ask the village chief if you can rest here for the night, so as not to scare the villagers."
"Okay." Wu Da hitched the horse and was about to take the two people with him when there was a noise at the intersection leading to the village.
I saw the woodcutter who had just been scared away led a group of aggressive villagers and ran out with knives and hoes.
"Village chief, it's them!" The woodcutter gasped, holding the ax he carried with him.
A dozen or so people came, and behind them there was a steady stream of villagers running to cheer with hatchets and wooden sticks.
Seniors ranging from seventy or eighty years old to young children as young as three, five or six years old were all on alert and ready.
Now there was no need for Wu Da to go to the village to ask, everyone ran out.
