Chapter 61: Old friends, are you all out of money?

"You're thoughtful."

Zhao Shan couldn't help but sigh as well. Who said they were ruthless? If anyone in their line of work showed even a little bit of softness, they would probably be bullied by those prisoners who were once rich or powerful. Only ruthlessness could subdue them.

"Prince Weiyang? Lord, is that you?"

Suddenly, a trembling voice came from the exiles. A man who looked to be in his forties looked at Wei Chengyi with tears in his eyes. The exiles with him also looked over in unison.

Upon hearing this, Wei Chengyi, who was about to talk to Zhao Shan, raised his eyes reflexively. When he saw who the other person was, his aura suddenly rose, and he walked up to him in two steps: "Uncle Yan, why... could you be like this?"

Wei Chengyi originally wanted to say, you are still alive, but he quickly realized that they were all still alive, so he could only change his words.

"Your Majesty, it really is you. I never thought that I, Yan Lang, would be able to see an old friend again in this life."

Yan Lang excitedly grabbed his hand, he used to be the military advisor of the East Border Army controlled by the Wei family, but had to retire due to injury a few years ago and was sent to Pengzhou by the emperor as the prefect, but he didn't expect that he would be harmed by a traitor and meet Wei Chengyi on the way to exile in Chenzhou. He... seeing him in a wet plain clothes, Yan Lang couldn't help but be stunned again.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing..."

"Rebellion."

Wei Chengyi said with an indifferent expression and without any hesitation.

"Rebellion? How could you possibly rebel...ah..."

The subconscious rebuttal was stuck in his throat halfway through. Thinking of the current emperor and the current situation of the court, Yan Lang looked at him deeply for a long time, and all his words turned into a sigh. If the emperor had not indulged those treacherous ministers, how could he have ended up like this? The current emperor is not the wise and capable Taizu, and he is not even as good as the mediocre Taizong and Yingzong. He is afraid that he has long forgotten how he conquered the world.

"Well, can you talk later?"

It’s not that Shen Xiangwan has no tact, but, they are all still wearing wet clothes, if they don’t change them, they might really catch a cold, especially the little cubs who are shivering with cold.

"Hold on."

Throwing a look at Yan Yanlang, Wei Chengyi turned around and walked towards Zhao Shan: "Captain, can you arrange for us to change our wet clothes?"

"You...wait a minute."

Zhao Shan, who was reminiscing about the past with his old friends, instinctively wanted to lose his temper, but when he saw clearly who the person was, he had to swallow his anger. He was not an ungrateful person. From the time the earth dragon turned over to now, if it were not for the couple, they would have been trapped to death even if they were not hit and trampled to death by wild beasts.

"Old Yang, are there any empty rooms?"

"There are empty rooms, but..."

Old Yang rubbed his fingers meaningfully, he used to be an official, but he quit later. It happened that this area was hit by a fire and all the buildings were burned down, so he borrowed money everywhere to buy land and built this courtyard. Usually it was mainly used to accommodate the escorts and exiles who could not be accommodated in the post station. The place was spacious, and even though a few rooms collapsed due to the overturned dragons, there were still vacant rooms.

"We want two."

The Shen family suddenly rushed over, and the person who snatched the room was not Shen Yishan, but Shen Xiangyue. Her voice was unusually sharp, completely different from her usual delicate and soft voice.

From the moment Wei Chengyi and Shen Xiangwan proposed to hurry on their journey this morning, everything was different from what she remembered. In the previous life, the exile team was trapped in the mountains for a long time. By the time they arrived in Binzhou, the government had already taken action, so they were not left without a place to stay.

Now she just wanted to take a hot shower, change her wet clothes, and then have a good meal.

"Have you any money?"

Holding the child in her arms, she walked forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Wei Chengyi. Shen Xiangwan curled her lips in mockery, and glanced at their wet clothes with a meaningful look.

"How could we not have... a father?"

Shen Xiangyue retorted subconsciously, but after noticing her gaze, her pupils shrank, and she turned her head almost mechanically to look at Shen Yishan.

As if he realized something, Shen Yishan's body stiffened, and he reached out to his purse with trembling hands, pulling out the soaked silver bills inside.

"No···"

Seeing that the ink words on the banknote were all blurred, Jiang's eyes rolled back and his body fell limp uncontrollably.

"mother!"

Shen Xiangnan, who was standing next to her, hugged her quickly. At this time, the other people in the Shen family had no time to care about her situation. Everyone stared blankly at the silver bills stuck together in Shen Yishan's hands. Overwhelming despair swept over them, and they felt as if the sky had fallen.

"No, how could this happen?"

"Our money, woo woo..."

“Ahh…”

They are not the only ones who are desperate.

Seeing this, others took out their purses. When they saw that their banknotes were the same as those of the Shen family, the last taut string broke. At this moment, almost everyone collapsed.

"Why, why is this happening? Why?"

Unable to accept this fact, Shen Xiangyue shook his head and kept muttering, and then suddenly raised his head as if he had thought of something and said, "Our money is gone, don't you still have it?"

They couldn't get a room alone, and Shen Xiangwan couldn't even think about it. Whether before or after exile, she would always be under her feet.

"Idiot."

Too lazy to pay attention to her, Shen Xiangwan handed the child to Wei Chengyi, and faced the gazes of the crowd. She took out a palm-sized oil paper package from her wet sleeves. After opening it, there were a dozen brand new silver bills lying inside, and they were still dry, not soaked by the rain at all. She had secretly wrapped them when no one else was paying attention.

"No, it's impossible. How could you..."

"Are you fucking sick? Get out!"

After a brief moment of shock, Shen Xiangyue couldn't accept this blow, and rushed over like a mad woman, trying to snatch the banknotes from her hand. Shen Xiangwan's eyes darkened, and while turning to dodge, he kicked her in the butt.

"ah···"

"Yue'er...Chen Xiangwan, you are looking for death!"

Shen Xiangyue let out a scream and fell forward uncontrollably. Shen Xiangdong suddenly came to his senses, his body faster than his mind, and he clenched his fists and hit Shen Xiangwan hard.

"You are the one seeking death!"

Wei Chengyi dodged and stood in front of Shen Xiangwan, then punched him.

"bump!"

"ah···"

The moment their fists collided, Shen Xiangdong felt like his hand was going to be broken. His tall body flew backwards uncontrollably until he hit the wall and stopped, then fell heavily to the ground.

"east!"

After all, he was his eldest son. Shen Yishan's pupils shrank and he ran over. Shen Xiangnan looked at Wei Chengyi and then at Shen Xiangwan, and followed with his unconscious mother in his arms. As for Shen Xiangyue, no one cared about her anymore.
