The day after the Xiao family was sentenced, Weiyuan Marquis Ye Hongtao was exposed for corruption, accepting bribes, and forming cliques for personal gain. The emperor was furious and the entire Ye family was thrown into prison.
The people of the royal family are always looking forward to using people, and abandoning them when they are not needed. And every emperor in history has been a suspicious and sensitive person.
It was clear that they wanted to marry Xiao Yunian back in the first place so that they could contain him in the future.
But after the Xiao family was arrested, the emperor suspected that the Ye family members were deliberately clinging to the Xiao family, so he deliberately revealed Ye Liuli's fate and used his mouth to propose marriage between the two?
Otherwise, how could things be such a coincidence? Suddenly, a rich young lady who lives outside and hasn't been seen in 15 years appears? Both his identity and fate matched Xiao Yunian's.
You must know that although the current Weiyuan Hou Mansion is not as glorious as the previous two generations, it is still a century-old family.
The relationship between officials in the DPRK and China was deeply entangled, and the emperor could not guarantee that they did not intentionally form cliques for personal gain.
So the emperor, based on the principle of preferring to kill the wrong one, directly pulled the Ye family out to kill chickens and scare monkeys.
Before the Ye family could react, the emperor's verdict came down.
As the head of the household, Marquis Weiyuan was punished with fifty sticks. The Ye family was also expelled from their place of origin and exiled to Mobei together with the Xiao family. The descendants of the family were not allowed to enter the officialdom for three generations.
In fact, the evidence for the things Ye Hongkun committed is conclusive.
It's just that officialdom is complicated, and everyone knows that if the water is clear, there will be no fish. Which high-profile family doesn't have its share of troubles? It's just that the people don't hold officials accountable.
Even if something happens accidentally, the officials are all relatives who want to curry favor or are worried about being implicated, so they will directly help cover it up.
Therefore, although the Ye family deserved the trouble, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was also affected by the incident at the General's Mansion.
But in the eyes of the Ye family, this day's disaster was entirely due to the Xiao family.
Even if the evidence is conclusive, they still firmly believe that they are implicated.
Thinking of the situation described in the novel, the emperor deliberately exiled the two families together, just to make them cause some trouble for each other on the long journey of exile.
Although the Xiao family is a family of military commanders, all the adult men have been tortured, leaving only a group of old and weak women and children, and their combat effectiveness has dropped off a cliff.
But the Ye family was different. During his lifetime, the old Marquis was a man of beauty and procreation, and he married several beautiful concubines, so in addition to his three legitimate sons, he also had several concubines.
And because the old lady is still alive, the Ye family has never been divided.
Then a group of sons married and had children, and finally the Ye family alone had a population of exiles, old and young, men and women, totaling a hundred people.
On the way to exile, the Ye family kept using the excuse of being implicated by the Xiao family and humiliating the Xiao family overtly and covertly.
At this time, Ye Liuli, a young lady of the Ye family and the bride of the Xiao family, was extremely embarrassed.
Anyway, Ye Liuli, who was in dire straits in the novel, collapsed at that time!
Originally, when the Xiao family was surrounded, Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Chu, was thinking that Ye Liuli had not married her son after all, so she might as well not involve other girls.
Unexpectedly, before she even asked to write a letter to let go of her wife, something happened to the Ye family immediately.
Both her husband's family and her natal family were behind bars, and Ye Liuli had no way out.
Ye Liuli felt unwilling! She thought that she had not enjoyed many blessings in the Marquis' Mansion, let alone eaten a grain of rice in the General's Mansion, but she ended up like this.
She can't go back to the nunnery, and now she has become an exile who is worse than ordinary people!
And no matter which side she chooses, she will inevitably end up being implicated.
The second roommate of the Ye family, Ye Liuli's parents, couldn't bear it and wanted her to stay with the Ye family. The Xiao family is now full of disabled people, and it is difficult to find extra food on the road.
But the old lady firmly disagreed. The people in the Hou Mansion were originally resentful of Ye Liuli. She felt that it was because she came back and married into the Xiao family that the Ye family encountered this difficulty.
The second room begged, but Ye Liuli still couldn't return to the Ye family's exile team. In the end, he followed the Xiao family's group of old, weak, sick and disabled people and embarked on a long road of exile.
…
In terms of ruthlessness, the torture of ancient criminal laws is so ruthless that even a modern Ferrari cannot match it.
Xiao Yuncong had been fighting for half his life and suffered from old ailments. After being beaten with a hundred sticks, his legs were so beaten that they could be used as dumpling fillings. In this way, no one died, and they were carried on the road with half a breath.
The other men of the Xiao family are not much better.
The Daqing Kingdom's clavicle punishment was to pass an iron hook through the shoulder blades of the back.
This is specially used to deal with prisoners with high force and prevent them from causing trouble or escaping on the way to exile.
It can also be said that this is the emperor's specially made for the Xiao family!
Xiao Yuncong had one wife, one concubine, three sons and two daughters. Xiao Yunwei, the second wife of the Xiao family, also has a wife, a concubine, two sons and two daughters.
Xiao Yunian and Xiao Yucheng, the eldest brother, and Xiao Yuzhao, the second brother, were all adults, and they were all put in iron chains on the way to exile. Only Xiao Yuncong's eleven-year-old son Xiao Yuke and Xiao Yunwei's nine-year-old son Xiao Yuchun escaped this cruel punishment.
Following such a group of people, one can imagine how difficult Ye Liuli's road to exile was.
She was unwilling, angry, and resentful, but she did not dare to resist and was unable to save herself.
She hates the Ye family and also hates the Xiao family. Slowly, Ye Liuli's heart became darker and darker, and then it naturally turned dark!
It is written in the novel that after turning into a black man, Ye Liuli sought death all the way.
At first, the people in the second room of the Ye family secretly took care of her, and the Xiao family was also tolerant of her out of guilt. But the more they behave like this, the more painful Ye Liuli becomes.
Less than three hundred miles out of Guangjing City, Ye Liuli, a passerby, did not encounter the subsequent disaster and died miserably on the road to exile.
The above are all the plots about the original penetration in the novel.
…
October 26
Not long after Ye Jiuli closed her eyes after working hard all night, she heard a slight noise in the room.
The maid Ji Xiang walked softly to her bedside and whispered, "Miss, Grandma Zhou next to the old lady is here. She said that there is something important in our house. Please come over immediately!"
Ye Jiuli frowned irritably, and then opened his eyes quickly!
Could it be...
Ye Jiuli quickly got up and changed clothes, "What happened?"
Ji Xiang hurriedly stepped forward to help her put it on, "I don't know, I think someone from the palace is coming."
In the palace? It seems that the decree of marriage has come!
…
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Jiuli dressed neatly and arrived at the large courtyard of the Hou Mansion. The incense table had been set up in front of the courtyard, and the three floors inside and outside were full of people.
The old lady standing at the front, wearing a poinsettia red background and a crane embroidered with gold threads, and a crown inlaid with gemstones, looked at the eunuch who came to announce the decree with a happy face.
The other masters in the Hou Mansion were also well-dressed and stood respectfully in their respective positions.
