The next day, the autumn morning breeze was cool and a few rays of soft sunlight fell on my body, making me feel warm.

After what happened last night, most people knew that An Xin and the others were not to be trifled with. Only those few big men with sinister faces had murderous gleams in their eyes when they looked at them.

The exiled people including An Xin were only given two mixed flour steamed buns each in the morning. They ate them quickly under the urging of the officials and left the post station at daybreak.

It was already noon, and everyone was so hungry that their legs were weak, but the leader of the officials didn't order them to stop and rest.

It was not until noon when the sun was getting hotter and hotter that the leader of the officials, Liu Huai, finally passed by a forest and asked everyone to stop to rest and eat something.

An Xin walked to the shade of a big tree and sat on a wooden stake. The others followed and sat in a circle.

"Oh, I finally get to rest. My old legs have pity on me." After sitting down, Censor Shan pounded his old arms and legs and wailed.

Doctor Su glanced at the bitter-looking Shan Yushi and said, "How dare you say you're old when I'm here."

"You little brat, you're asking for a beating."

If someone else said this, Old Man Shan, the Imperial Censor, would be so angry that he would be killed. But after all, these words were said by Old Doctor Su, whose hair was whiter than his and whose beard was longer than his, Shan Jinzhe had to admit it even though he was angry and pursed his lips.

When everyone saw the eloquent Censor Shan being humiliated, they all smiled in good faith.

The two old men's funny and antics made everyone feel relieved after walking for a whole morning.

An Rui, Zhu Shijing and Chen Runze took off their bags and took out the food they had paid the post station to prepare for them last night, which was enough for their journey today.

Chen Runzhi took out a thick cloth and spread it in the middle. Several people wrapped the steamed buns and roast chicken in oil paper for easy carrying.

People nearby saw them eating steamed buns, with seven or eight dishes placed in the middle, and drinking the boiled water they brought out. A group of people gathered together, talking, chatting, and laughing. It seemed to them that this was not like exile at all, but more like an outing.

Not to mention others, just look at the dozen or so officials who were exiled from the Ministry of Justice prison with An Xin and the others. They were both envious and jealous when they saw them like this.

An Xin saw that most people brought out steamed buns and pickles from the post station for convenience, so he asked An Rui to deliver the two roast chickens he brought out to the group of officials who were exiled from the Ministry of Justice with them.

"Lord An is so righteous." The cheerful official took the roast chicken and bowed to An Xin and the others to express his gratitude.

An Xin smiled and said, "We were once officials in the same court, and now we are in exile together. Please take care of each other. You are welcome."

"Yes, Lord An is right." An official agreed.

Regardless of whether these people were just being polite, An Xin sent roast chicken to this group of officials only because he felt that he was taking care of them within his ability and did not expect too much thanks.

But most of the officials still nodded to An Xin with a friendly smile when she sent them the roast chicken.

When everyone was eating quietly, a discordant voice suddenly appeared: "I will not eat food that is wasted."

An Xin turned his head sideways and saw an official kindly tearing off a piece of chicken and handing it to Wei Yaoxin, the Minister of the Central Secretariat who was very considerate of women, but he was treated with such disgust.

He was so embarrassed that he handed it over and it was not right, and he took it back and his face turned red.

Someone couldn't stand it and said sarcastically: "Wei Yaoxin, we have been exiled now, why are you still pretending to be an official for others?"

"That's right. Lord An saw that we only bought steamed buns and pickles that were easy to carry, so he kindly gave us a roast chicken. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but why are you being so sarcastic?"

Wei Yaoxin's face turned red after being confronted by several officials who had long disliked him. He opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by a man next to him who had a good relationship with him, who pulled his sleeve and reminded him that he had already angered the crowd.

Nine out of ten officials felt that Wei Yaoxin's words were too uncivilized. If you think this is a good thing you can just choose not to eat it, but why say it out loud and ruin everyone's mood.

An Xin shook his head as Jiang Zhou was about to speak harshly. If it weren't for that group of officials standing up for justice, it wouldn't be excessive for Jiang Zhou to speak harshly.

Since those officials had already blocked the man surnamed Wei from speaking, if Jiang Zhou went up to them now, no matter what he said, it would give people the impression that they were being unreasonable.

Even if the other peaceful prisoners in exile saw that An Xin and his friends were eating well, they would just look at them with envy, then go aside with their families to rest and eat the food they brought with them.

But those big men who looked like they were up to no good in the past, and the mother and daughter who were used to making money by lying down and enjoying themselves, one had no money on her, and the other had money but didn't want to spend it.

They looked at An Xin and his group enjoying their meals and chatting, and at the same time, there was a gloomy look of resentment in their eyes. They felt that they were all exiles now, so why could they live so well?

"Boss, this is the first time I see someone who is so arrogant even after being exiled," sighed Xu Yong, the officer with a long and thin face.

Liu Huai took a big bite of a piece of cooked meat, chewed it, and swallowed it. "Do your own thing and don't interfere with things that you shouldn't interfere with."

After finishing the meat in his hand, Liu Huai looked towards the tree not far away with a somewhat heavy look in his eyes.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Looking back, there weren't many people exiled this time. In total, including the old, young, and middle-aged, there were no more than a hundred people.

Normally in such situations, at most fifty people would be sent to escort the person, but this time he received an order to lead thirty officers on this mission.

Originally, Liu Huai thought that his superiors would send the thirty people led by him to escort the exiled prisoners.

Liu Huai looked up and looked at the fifty people wearing the same official uniforms as them. His eyes flashed and he lowered his head to hide the suspicion in his eyes.

Because he didn't recognize any of the people sent to escort him.

After finishing his meal, An Xin leaned against a big tree and dozed off with his eyes closed.

After Zhu and Chen Runzhi finished packing, the mother and daughter whispered something to each other and then walked towards the depths of the woods on the other side.

"Ouch," Chen Runze, who was chatting with others, covered the back of his head which was hit by a small lump of earth and looked back with his eyes wide open.

Seeing that it was An Xin who threw it at him, he blinked in confusion and said aggrievedly, "Master Shanzhang..."

An Xin pointed at the backs of Zhu and Chen Runzhi and said, "It's unsafe to be on the exile road with so many people. You should follow them from a distance to protect them."

The others were also puzzled as to why An Xin childishly used a small clod of earth to hit people, but after listening to her, they realized that they, a group of grown men, were careless.

Chen Runze also suddenly realized what was going on and quickly stood up, following his mother and sister from a distance to protect them.

After Zhu and Chen Runzhi took care of their three urgent needs, they supported each other and walked out of the tall grass, where they saw Chen Runze, who was waiting for them with his back against a tree trunk.

Zhu looked at him strangely and asked, "Ze'er, why are you here?"
