Chapter 54 King Xiao is exiled?
Someone hidden in the crowd grumbled quietly, "How grand! Are there special treatments for exiles? Don't the officers care?"
"That's right. How did they treat us before? What about being whipped if you don't follow the rules? Is riding in a carriage a rule? Then let's go in a carriage too."
The person who said this was a family member of a fourth-rank official in the former imperial city. The official's surname was Liu. He took twenty years to pass the exam before he got a place. He was originally an honest official, but he was gradually blinded by the wealth everywhere in the imperial city. In addition, the concubines he married into his family were not from good families. In order to compete with the wives and concubines of officials in the imperial city, he secretly accepted bribes behind his master's back.
This Lord Liu was also a strange man. After learning the whole story, he not only did not stop it, but he even became involved with many corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen. He became more and more daring and took more and more money. In the end, his deeds were exposed and he was pushed out to become a wooden warehouse keeper.
No, it just so happened that the Dog Emperor, in order to eliminate Ji Xiaohan's influence in the imperial city, adhered to the principle of rather killing someone innocent than letting him go, and directly sentenced him to confiscation of property and exile. Fortunately, he was assigned to the same group as Ji Xiaohan.
The woman was ignorant, but Lord Liu was not really brainless. He saw the logo hanging on the side of the carriage from a distance. Although the logo was displayed in a low-key manner, who could not recognize it as long as they could become officials in the imperial city?
This is the carriage from Prince Xiao’s Mansion!
If the people in the car weren't King Xiao's men, who else could they be?
Looking at this situation, the person in the car might be King Xiao!
I just don’t know how this high and mighty King Xiao could end up with the same fate as them?
When Master Liu heard his concubines talking nonsense again, he was furious and shouted, "Shut up! Open your dog eyes and see whose carriage that is!"
The concubines were stunned by the scolding, and then they looked carefully at the sign on the carriage. There was a small lantern hanging next to the curtain, and on the lantern was written: Prince Xiao's Mansion.
After seeing clearly, they immediately huddled together quietly and no one dared to make a sound.
In the imperial city, who doesn't know Prince Xiao? Who dares to mess with the people in Prince Xiao's mansion?
The officers suddenly received news that people from Prince Xiao's Mansion were also among the prisoners they were escorting this time. They were also told to "take good care" of them on the road, and that they didn't have to take any action if an emergency occurred... When the officers received this news, they almost fainted.
Doesn't this clearly mean that there will be an assassination on the road?
That’s King Xiao!
King Xiao's army is the invincible cavalry of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Any passionate man who wants to make a name for himself through military achievements has never thought of joining King Xiao's army.
Now they are actually going to escort King Xiao to exile in Quanzhou?
Since everyone was present, the officers did not dare to waste any more time. After confirming the number of people again, they waved their whips and drove everyone out of the city.
Since it was exile, except for Ji Xiaohan who was pardoned by the dog emperor and could ride in a carriage, with Su Wanyan accompanying him, the rest of the people had to travel on foot.
The people in Prince Xiao's Mansion were all selected by Ji Xiaohan in advance. Except for He Bo who was old, the rest were strong men. It was not too difficult to walk all the way in a day.
Xiaowu is the only woman in their group, but she comes from the Dark Guard Camp, so she is not afraid of walking and has the energy to help Hebo with everything along the way.
