4. The safest place is her space

"Ah!" Upon hearing this, everyone in the Su family suddenly took a breath of cold air.

No wonder Ying Bao said that the person who brought the meal asked them to eat quietly so that the jailer wouldn't find out.

"Quick, hide all the plates and don't let anyone find them!" General Su ordered immediately.

"And the oil on your mouth, please wipe it clean!" Mrs. Su reminded her.

Everyone in the Su family hurriedly followed the instructions, hiding the plates in the straw and wiping their mouths clean over and over again.

As soon as all this was done, the jailer came to bring them food.

A bucket of clear porridge, a bag of dry and hard steamed buns, and a plate of pickles.

"Eat!" the jailer said while deliberately nibbling meat buns in front of them: "This is your last sumptuous dinner. Tomorrow, there will be no porridge or pickles, only steamed buns!"

Everyone in the Su family had just finished eating, but when they saw the pickles, gruel, and dried steamed buns they had brought, they had no appetite at all. The whole family leaned together and could not move.

When the jailer saw this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. They are indeed a wealthy family and they really have integrity.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but put down the meat buns in his hand, and there was a hint of respect in his tone: "People are like iron rice or steel, no matter how strong they are, they have to eat rice!"

Mrs. Su said: "Don't worry, little brother, leave the food here and we will eat it."

After the jailer left, Mrs. Su immediately asked people to put away all the pickles and steamed buns.

Liu Jiaojiao looked pained: "Are we really going to have to eat only these dry and hard steamed buns during our exile?"

Qin Ying, the daughter-in-law of Su's parents, sneered coldly: "I'm so pampered that I can even ask this kind of question! Some of them are fine, but some of them will be miserable for us when the time comes!"

Hearing what she said, Liu Jiaojiao immediately shrank into Su Erlang's arms: "Erlang, I'm afraid..."

Su Erlang quickly embraced her and said dissatisfiedly to Qin Ying: "Sister-in-law, please stop scaring Jiaojiao."

"Your sister-in-law is telling the truth." Su Dalang, the eldest son of the Su family, also spoke for his wife: "Sooner or later, the second sister-in-law will experience the pain of exile. There is nothing wrong with letting her understand earlier!"

Su Erlang said nothing and hugged his wife to comfort her.

Qin Ying, however, had her husband support her, but she didn't even look at Su Dalang. She sat next to Mrs. Su and rubbed the old man's shoulders.

But at this moment, Su Dalang's concubine Xia Cao suddenly grabbed Su Dalang and begged bitterly: "My lord, please divorce me! I don't want to suffer the pain of exile!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Su family raised their eyes.

Qin Ying straightened up again and sneered: "You tried so hard to get to the master, but now that the master is in trouble, you are eager to be divorced. You are truly a despicable maidservant, and you deserve to be a mere wallflower! You

Do you think the imperial court can be teased? If you can take it for granted, why do we, the female members of the Su family, still suffer here?"

Xia Cao was immediately angry and resentful.

She was originally just a maid in Su Dalang's courtyard, and she deliberately tried to seduce her. Finally, at a celebration banquet, she took the opportunity to get on Su Dalang's bed while he was drunk and became Su Dalang's concubine.

But she never expected that she would only enjoy the joy of being a concubine for one day. Before she had time to figure out how to overthrow the eldest lady and become the main wife, the next day, the Su family was ransacked and exiled.

Had she known this would be the result, she would never have wasted any time and energy on Su Dalang.

The Su family was exiled. As long as their contracts are terminated, the servants and maids in the family no longer belong to the Su family and can be sent away without suffering the pain of exile.

Except for those who voluntarily went into exile with the Su family to suffer hardships, the rest of the servants took a sum of money and left before the Su family was raided.

Naturally, she wanted to leave, but she happened to be accepted as Su Dalang's concubine, which meant she was a member of the Su family. It was impossible for her to leave.

She thought she would finally fly up a branch and become a phoenix, but instead she became the unluckiest person. Now she can only regret it.

As a martial artist, Su Dalang naturally didn't know her previous scheming, thinking that he had ruined an innocent woman only after drinking. Although his wife Qin Ying resented him, he also loved Xia Cao very much.

Now that he heard that she wanted to divorce her, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He comforted her softly: "Xia Cao, don't worry, I will protect you on the way, and when you get to the place of exile, I will carry you as an equal."

wife!"

When Qin Ying heard this, she became angry and wanted to speak.

However, Mrs. Su patted the back of her hand comfortingly, and then she refrained from speaking.

Mrs. Su looked at Xia Cao with cold eyes and said calmly: "The road to exile is difficult. If you can take good care of the eldest young master and the eldest lady and never leave them, when they arrive at the place of exile, I and I will make the decision together to make you a

The eldest son’s common wife!”

Xia Cao secretly sneered in her heart, now that the Su family is in dire straits, who would care to be your Su family's daughter-in-law!

But he didn't say anything on his face, and he leaned against the wall glumly, feeling sad and alone.

Old General Su took this opportunity to sincerely express his attitude to the servants and maids who followed the Su family: "Now that the Su family is experiencing this difficulty, you have endured hardships with our Su family. When our Su family makes a comeback, I will not treat you badly."

!”

Most of these remaining servants are personal attendants of several masters of the Su family, and many of them are people who have received favors from the Su family.

These servants and maids are truly affectionate and do not want to be sent away. They just want to follow their master. Wherever the master goes, they will follow him.

Now when I hear the old general say this, he is full of loyalty and courage, and he will follow him to the death.

Ying Bao saw that there were so many people in the Su family, and secretly made up his mind to steal some supplies tonight to avoid running out of food on the road.

As for which family to steal from, she had already decided which family to steal from, so it would be her maternal grandfather’s and aunt’s natal family!

She was also very curious about what kind of military talisman it was!

She woke up in the middle of the night and was about to take action when she saw her grandfather quietly handing her a golden seal and whispered:

"The emperor accused me of being corrupt, just to reduce King Xie's power and withdraw the military talisman. Once this military talisman is withdrawn, our Liaoyuan country will definitely cause a bloody storm. Therefore, I hid the real one on my body and let them steal the fake one, but I'm afraid tomorrow

They will search you when you are exiled. If you are discovered by them, you and I can think of a way to find a better place to hide?"

Mrs. Su pondered for a while, "The most dangerous place is the safest place. Yingbao is young, so the possibility of them searching her is the lowest. It's better to hide it in Yingbao's sachet."

General Su's eyes suddenly lit up: "What a great idea!"

Ying Bao quickly slowed down her breathing and pretended to be asleep, while the two old men put the military talisman in the sachet she carried with her.

After they placed it, she put the soldier talisman directly into the space.

The safest place is her space, no matter how many officers and soldiers search her, they will never find her.

It was quiet late at night. After Mr. and Mrs. Su hid the military talisman, they closed their eyes and rested peacefully.

Ying Bao opened any door from the space and continued to collect supplies.

On the second day, everyone in the Su family woke up, except Yingbao who was still asleep.

She was too busy collecting supplies last night and didn't go back to bed until dawn, and she is tired now.

Everyone in the Su family couldn't bear to wake her up and took turns holding her.

The guards did not put shackles or handcuffs on them, but only put a series of shackles on their feet. They strung the whole family together, and the whole body was affected by one move.

One officer was holding the hand in front, while the other officers were guarding on both sides.

Because Ying Bao was young, the shackles could not lock her feet, and because she was sleeping soundly, they did not put the shackles on her and allowed the Su family to hold her.

The Su family was led out of the cell, only to discover that besides their Su family, there were two other families who had the same fate as theirs.

One is Liu Canjun's family. He is a staff officer under General Su. He was directly convicted by the Dog Emperor as an accomplice and their family was exiled.

The other was Zuo Shilang's family. Because they complained for General Su, they were also designated as comrades and suffered the same misfortune.

Three families were strung together into three long strings at their feet and met at the gate of the county government office.

When Liu Canjun's wife saw General Su, she gritted her teeth angrily: "It's all your fault, old man, for leading my husband to be greedy, and your Liu family was also implicated by you!"

The rest of the Liu family also grinned at the Su family, feeling that it was the Su family that had caused them to end up like this, and they wished they could rush up and beat them to relieve their anger.

Liu Canjun felt a little guilty, but he did not give an explanation and allowed his family to gnash their teeth at the Su family.

"Why are you making such a fuss? If you keep making any more noise, your teeth will be smashed!" The officer was counting the number of people. Hearing the commotion of the Liu family, he immediately shouted:
Chapter completed!
