How can mortals fight against gods? The Xiao family is protected by gods, so this may be true.
Yu Huaqian swallowed his saliva, too lazy to watch Dong Wenfeng's joke, and waved his hand quickly.
"Don't look at it anymore. Lift General Xiao up and don't let him fall. Let's go quickly..."
Yu Huaqian gave some instructions and hurried towards the city gate.
Hand the Xiao family over to the officials quickly, and the rest will be none of his business.
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and only reacted when they heard the voice of Eunuch Yu. They quickly dismounted and ran to help Dong Wenfeng.
"General Dong..."
"Oh no, General Dong's head is broken..."
"Hurry up and go to the clinic to call for help. General Dong Wen has fainted..."
.......
The soldiers were in chaos, carrying Dong Wenfeng, whose face was covered in blood, to a nearby clinic.
As for the mad warhorse that ran away, no one thought of chasing it.
The soldiers had been ordered around all morning and were exhausted, so their brains naturally weren't working very well.
The Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, and the Dali Temple all became busy, taking soldiers everywhere to search for clues.
These soldiers and guards had just followed the crowd and had not even had time to catch their breath when they were immediately called back to work.
The Ministry of Justice searched the house, the Ministry of War searched the house, and the Dali Temple also searched the house...
The soldiers who searched the houses became numb, and it was normal for the same house to be searched five times.
.........
"Madam Xiao, we will send you here. Take care on the way."
Yu Huaqian wiped the sweat from his forehead and spoke politely to Madam Xiao.
Finally, these hot potatoes have been passed on.
Old Madam Xiao frowned and looked at Yu Huaqian, not understanding why Yu Huaqian's attitude had changed so much.
She nodded slightly and didn't want to say anything to Yu Huaqianduo.
He looked down at Xiao Yunzhan lying on the quilt, wondering what to do next.
The four daughters-in-law couldn't carry Xiao Yunzhan far.
If you walk too slowly, the officers will not agree.
Yu Huaqian didn't care about Madam Xiao's attitude. He curled his lips and turned to Meng Zhuang, the chief of the officials, and said loudly,
"Master Meng, the journey of exile is very difficult. The women of the Xiao family are all weak and helpless. There is no need to wear bracelets and anklets. The most important thing is to hurry on."
As the female members of the Xiao family gathered around Xiao Yunzhan and squatted down, they heard what Yu Huaqian said.
They all looked up and looked at Yu Huaqian in surprise.
I don’t know what Yu Huaqian is up to, and why he suddenly pleaded for them.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. It seems that we need to be more careful on the road.
When Lin Yiran heard what Yu Huaqian said, she was slightly stunned and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
While she was tidying up the quilt, she listened to the conversation between the two people with her ears perked up.
Seeing that there was still some space above Xiao Yunzhan's head, she grabbed Xiao Yunzhan's arm and pulled him up.
When I pulled my hand back, I saw his ears move slightly out of the corner of my eye.
Lin Yiran curled her lips and smiled. It was hard for Xiao Yunzhan to endure for so long. Pretending to be dead was not that easy.
A man can bend and stretch.
If you can be so patient, you will surely achieve great things in the future.
Meng Zhuang over there was also quite frightened.
To put it bluntly, these officials are marginal figures. They escort criminals and people in the capital look down on them.
Unless there are relatives in the family who have been exiled and fallen into their hands, you can be polite to them. Other Beijing officials look at them like dogs.
Meng Zhuang's pupils trembled, and he looked at Yu Huaqian somewhat flattered.
This was the top eunuch beside Emperor Wu of Liang. Even the first-rank ministers were polite when they met Eunuch Yu.
Suddenly calling him a small official "Sir" is like the sun rising from the west.
Meng Zhuang clasped his hands together and nodded with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Yu is right. We only have half a day left. So, I won't wear the bracelets or anklets for now..."
Not wearing them now doesn’t mean not wearing them in the future. What will happen if these prisoners run around without bracelets and anklets?
To give Uncle Rain some face, they were not allowed to wear bracelets or anklets for the remaining half day's journey.
When you hit the road tomorrow, you still have to take what you need with you.
Yu Huaqian understood what the officer meant, but he didn't say much.
He just wanted to do the Xiao family a favor on the surface so that they would not bear a grudge against him and avoid divine punishment from falling on him.
For things like this, it is better to believe it than not.
Especially now that so many incredible things have happened in the capital, he has to act with caution.
Anyway, it's just a matter of speaking well of something, there's no loss.
"That's great. Let's set off early so as not to delay your rest at the post station."
Yu Huaqian looked up at the sky and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master Yu, for your advice. I have another question for you."
Meng Zhuang grinned with his yellow teeth, approached Yu Huaqian and asked in a low voice,
"Eunuch Yu, may I ask what happened in the capital? Normally, people are allowed to enter but not leave, but today, no one is allowed to enter or leave. Could you please tell me something?"
In the morning, they suddenly received the task of escorting the family of the Duke of Zhenguo to exile in Ningguta, which almost shocked them to death.
The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has been a family of loyal officials for generations, so why were they suddenly exiled?
Also, didn't General Xiao just win a battle? Why was he not rewarded? Why was his property confiscated and he was exiled?
Before he and his brothers had time to find out, they were suddenly driven outside the city gate to wait.
He was not allowed to enter or approach the city gate, which made him extremely curious.
A strong smell of bad breath hit him in the face. Yu Huaqian frowned slightly, trying hard to suppress his disgusted expression and said softly,
"Lord Meng, you may not be aware that the residences of all the civil and military officials in the capital have been robbed. The rampant thieves are appalling, and the Emperor has been forced to close the city gates and conduct a thorough investigation."
Yu Huaqian picked up some unimportant things and talked about them. The thefts in the palace and the national treasury must not be talked about casually.
Emperor Wu of Liang directly ordered people to keep silent, and no one dared to spread the news.
Talking nonsense at this critical juncture is like risking your life.
"Thieves are so rampant these days! It seems a lot of money has been stolen."
Meng Zhuang's eyes widened in shock.
No wonder no relatives came to see the Xiao family off when they were exiled. It must be because their family was robbed and they had no money.
Hey~
This trip was a loss. Without relatives to see them off, the prisoners had no money to reward them.
Looking at the prison uniforms they were wearing, it was obvious that they had been searched and they definitely didn't have a penny on them.
Everyone had disheveled hair and didn't even have a silver hairpin.
What bad luck!
Yu Huaqian nodded. "It's indeed quite a lot. It's getting late, Lord Meng, you should hurry on your way. Remember, this is between you and me, and you must not spread it around."
"Thank you, Eunuch Yu, for the advice!"
Meng Zhuang clasped his hands together to thank Yu Huaqian, then turned around and waved.
"Set off!"
Lin Yiran was about to stand up by pulling the corner of the quilt when she heard a quick and sharp voice coming from the city gate.
“Wait!”
"etc!"
