Xie Zijun was originally sentenced by the emperor to be beheaded after autumn. Later, because of the emperor's birthday and amnesty, he should be beheaded and exiled.
Today is the beginning of his official exile.
Wei Chen also saw this scene. His mood was very complicated.
He once received Xie Zijun's help and was grateful for it. He thought he could become a gentleman's friend with Xie Zijun, but he didn't expect to be severely punished by Xie Zijun in the end.
It's not easy to say hate, but it's not so easy to say forgive.
Jiang Wei said, "get off."
Wei Chen came back and looked at her puzzled.
Jiang Wei said, "just send it here. You should go back."
Wei Chen is very reluctant to give up. He also wants to send his sister again. He doesn't want to say goodbye to her.
Jiang Weiwei simply said: "send you thousands of miles. You must finally say goodbye. Let's go. Don't linger any longer."
Wei Chen had no choice but to jump off the donkey cart.
The 12-year-old young man still has a young face and a thin body, but it can be seen from his picturesque eyebrows that in a few years he will grow into a beautiful man who can forget the vulgar.
He is the youngest number one scholar since the founding of Southern Chu. He is the team arranged by the emperor for the little prince. He is the future star of Southern Chu and represents the infinite future.
He stood by the roadside, looked at his sister sitting in the car, raised his hands and bowed goodbye.
"Please remember my brother and say hello to my parents and grandfather."
"I also wish my sister a pleasant journey."
Jiang Wei knew that his father, mother and grandfather meant Mr. and Mrs. Wei Ci and Mr. Wei.
She nodded, pressed down her heart, didn't say anything more, and put down the curtain directly.
Although the chicks are weak, they will grow up one day.
All she can do now is let go and let him fly.
Driven by Gu De, the donkey cart ran forward, followed by Zhang Shunli's donkey cart. Wei Chen stood in place and watched them drift away. His heart was full of reluctance.
From now on, he will be the only one left in such a big Bianjing city.
Wei Chen stood in place for a while and then walked towards the prisoner team not far away.
As he approached, an official stopped him.
Wei Chen took out the waist token of the representative office: "I want to say a few words to my old friend."
Although the editing of the Imperial Academy is only a small official of the seventh grade, it is a close Minister of the emperor. In ordinary days, the emperor needs to edit the imperial edict. Therefore, he can often get in touch with important events in the court and is also one of the easiest positions to be promoted to the cabinet.
The official quickly changed his long face and said carefully, "please."
Wei Chen goes to Xie Zijun.
At this time, Tang had been comforted by Xie Zijun. She didn't cry anymore, but she was still wiping the corners of her eyes. Tang also knew Wei Chen. As soon as she saw Wei Chen, she immediately spread her arms like an old hen in front of her son.
"My son has been reduced to this point. What else do you want? Do you still want to kill all? "
Xie Zijun patted her on the shoulder: "Mom, didn't you just say you wanted to help me dredge with the officials? Go quickly. If we delay any longer, we should go. "
Fearing that his son would suffer in exile, Tang dared not delay and hurried to find officials to dredge up relations.
After supporting his mother, Xie Zijun looked at Wei Chen and said with a smile, "long time no see."
Wei Chen looked at him up and down and found that he had lost a lot of weight. He looked very haggard.
It never occurred to anyone that the elegant champion Lang, who was riding in the streets of Bianjing two months ago, had become so embarrassed.
Wei Chen asked, "do you regret it?"
He asked about cheating in the exam.
Xie Zijun did not answer the question: "the thing I regret most in my life is that I shouldn't break my engagement with your sister."
"My sister has been married. You shouldn't say such words again. It's bad for her reputation."
"I know, so I'll just tell you. You won't reveal it anyway, will you?"
Wei Chen was speechless.
Xie Zijun sighed: "in the past, I was the son of a county magistrate. People in Jiuqu county were respectful when they saw me. At that time, you were just the son of a businessman and were bullied. Even your family dared to tell you what to do. However, in just one year, our two positions have been changed. Now I am a prisoner at the bottom of the rank and have suffered all kinds of white eyes, but you have become a close Minister of the son of heaven. Your future is unlimited. The fate of life is really interesting! "
Wei Chen said, "if you didn't go with Xu Yizhi, you wouldn't have to be humiliated today."
Xie Zijun smiled.
Wei Chen frowned: "what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing. I just envy you a little. I can still keep a childlike heart. Unlike me, I haven't been saved for a long time."
Who doesn't want to be a gentleman?
Of course, Xie Zijun also wants to be an elegant gentleman who adheres to the bottom line and has noble conduct.
But when he saw his mother kneeling on the ground and begging for help from his grandfather, he had lost his qualification to be a gentleman. In order not to disappoint his mother, he had to give up the bottom line and be a treacherous villain.
Xie Zijun said, "I'm a coward. I hope you can learn from me and don't become the same person as me."
Wei Chen didn't speak, but he had given a firm answer in his heart——
He will never be a villain like Xie Zijun!
Because he can't let his sister down!
When the break was over, the officials urged the prisoners on their way.
Xie Zijun knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Tang.
"If a child is unfilial, he can no longer serve his mother. I hope the mother will take care of her body and don't be sad for the child."
Tang Shi's tears, which were hard to stop, burst out again.
Urged by the officials, the prisoners bid farewell to their relatives and friends and embarked on a long journey.
Xie Zijun walked away with heavy chains.
The destination of his trip is Luohe wasteland, which is the northernmost place in southern Chu. It is a famous cold place with extremely difficult conditions.
It's a long way to go. I don't know when it's time to return?
Tang Shi stood where she was and watched her son go away until she could no longer see her son. She still didn't want to look back and looked at him. The original plump body has lost its shape, but at the age of thirty, a few wisps of white hair have grown on the temples.
Wei Chen has taken a passing ox cart back to Bianjing.
He entered the palace and met the little prince who was preparing to have lunch.
As soon as the little prince saw him, he immediately smiled and bent his eyes: "ah Chen, you're just in time. Today you have your favorite halogen ear tip. Come and eat with me."
Wei Chen arched his hand: "here."
He sat down on the right side of the little prince, and the waiter put new dishes and chopsticks.
There are many eating rules in the palace. You can't make a sound in the whole process.
The two children finished their lunch quietly.
The waiter brought hot water and towels to wipe their hands.
