Leader Shen nodded and pointed to his injured leg, "There's nothing we can do. The higher-ups have said so, so we must just follow their instructions. Master Gu, you see my leg is still broken... Alas..."
Gu Wei concealed the coldness in his eyes, curled his lips and chuckled, "Thank you, Leader Shen, for the reminder. I wonder when the exile will start?"
Leader Shen looked at the sun and said, "I'll try to delay the time. How about this afternoon?"
Gu Wei nodded, and after Shen led the way, he immediately called out the heads of each household and Xie Ling and told them the news.
Xie Ling frowned, "How could this happen? Has something changed?"
Gu Wei nodded, "You'll know when you're exiled."
Xie Ling's eyes were cold, "Let's run."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Wu Daqiang repeated, "What, run? Thank you, sister, did I hear you right?"
Xie Ling said coldly: "You heard it right, just run. There must be a trick to exile in such a hurry! Just run!"
Before being exiled, these families all served in the imperial court and had been taught the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism since childhood.
After being exiled for so long, no one even thought about escaping.
Therefore, when Xie Ling said this, everyone fell silent.
Gu Wei on the side raised his eyebrows, Xie Ling gave him a new idea!
Yes, run away!
He had been a general for too long, his thinking was restricted, and he didn't even think of escaping!
Xie Ling folded her arms across her chest, quietly waiting for the answers from these people.
After just two or three minutes, Wu Daqiang nodded first, "My family listens to Sister Xie! We have decided to follow the Gu family!"
The rest of the people also nodded one after another.
The reason they were stunned just now was not because they were hesitating, but because they were stunned and needed to calm down!
Of course they had to follow the Gu family. If it weren't for Xie Ling, they might have died in the flood.
Not to mention running away, even if they wanted to rebel, they would follow without hesitation!
As for the dog emperor of Beijiang, whoever wants to be loyal to him can be loyal to him!
Shi Hua, the head of the Shi family, had a resolute expression on his face. "All of us in the Shi family have received favors from Miss Xie. Even if we have to go through fire and water, our Shi family will follow you!"
Other families also expressed their loyalty.
Xie Ling's lips curled slightly.
She had not made a mistake in her judgment. These people were all brave and loyal people! They were not blindly loyal!
He looked at the injured people lying on the ground and continued, "Many people are still injured right now. Once everyone's injuries have recovered, we will run!
Now those who still have strength, listen to my command, go cut down trees and make carts for the injured to lie on! Otherwise, the road to exile will be too difficult to walk on! "
As soon as he finished speaking, all the men ran to chop down trees. Shi Hua took the lead and ran in front. He was good at carpentry and could demonstrate and increase their speed.
As soon as Xie Ling finished speaking, her sleeve was pulled tightly.
Lu Linglong frowned and asked pitifully, "Are you leaving?"
Xie Ling nodded, "Yes, we are exiled prisoners and we will continue to be exiled."
Lu Linglong pouted and burst into tears.
She didn’t want to be separated from Xie Ling and the others. It wasn’t easy for her to make so many friends. She didn’t want to be separated from them…
Xie Ling patted her shoulder and said softly as if coaxing a child, "There will be opportunities in the future. I still have to go to your uncle to see his legs later. Don't cry."
Gao Wanhua and Wu Zhengqing also came over, and the three little girls hugged each other and cried sadly.
Lu Linglong sobbed and took out a piece of paper from her pocket. "This is my home address. When you get to Wei Zhao, remember to come to my house. You must come!"
On the other side, Lu Wuji was talking to Gu Wei.
He is the crown prince of a country, and it is time for him to go back after being away for so long.
I guess the palace and the court are in chaos these days.
I haven’t even finished investigating the Emperor’s uncle’s affairs as promised.
Lu Wuji felt a headache just thinking about it and rubbed his eyebrows.
Looking up and seeing his sister crying so miserably, Lu Wuji also felt a little bit of separation in his heart.
He has been a prince since birth and has a noble status. Who wouldn't be respectful when seeing him?
He had never experienced such real human life in his life.
We work together, eat together, work from sunrise to sunset, no one has any evil intentions, and everyone is so simple and sincere.
The few days I spent in Qingshan were as beautiful and pure as the Peach Blossom Spring.
He had never felt so comfortable in his life.
Lu Wuji came back to his senses, patted Gu Wei on the shoulder, and shook his fist with him, "Gu Wei, it's rare to have a bosom friend in this world. No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my good friend."
Gu Wei curled his lips and clenched his fists to meet Lu Wuji's.
"Gu Wei is also the same."
After speaking, Lu Wuji walked towards Xie Ling.
Xie Ling knew what he was going to say, and said bluntly: "Mr. Lu, are you going to talk about your uncle?"
Lu Wuji nodded.
"Once we settle down in Lingnan, I will follow the address Linglong gave me to go to Wei Zhaoguo to find you. It will take a few months at most."
Lu Wuji's eyes were full of surprise, "Thank you so much, young lady!"
Xie Ling shook her head. "It's okay. It's just a piece of cake. I have other things to deal with. I'll excuse myself now."
Lu Wuji nodded, and when Xie Ling turned around, he suddenly said, "Miss Xie, even though you are very powerful, I always feel that you give me the same feeling as Linglong, as if you were my sister. I can't help but want to protect you. This may be a bit offensive, I hope you don't mind."
Xie Ling turned around and smiled with her eyes curved.
"No offense, in fact, I feel a bit like a brother to Master Lu. Maybe it's fate?"
Lu Wuji's eyes lit up, "It's really my honor."
Xie Ling smiled and turned to look for Qianniang and Jiang Wanyi.
