Chapter 240 The Licking Prince's Servant 07

That night, Duoduo suddenly said to Liu Yiyun: "Marquis Weiwu was beheaded, and Zhang Yao's father Zhang Tie ran away."

This is somewhat different from the original plot.

In the original plot, both of these two brothers were murdered.

"We are too far away to reach Marquis Weiwu, so it's good that one of them can escape now."

Liu Yiyu sighed.

In the next two days, Liu Yiyu cultivated his internal strength.

Before, she only had experience, but it was too much of a burden for her untrained body to move. Now, with the pills she had taken before and the support of her inner strength, she became more agile.

Two days later, Liu Yiyu, who had been eating spiritual springs and spiritual fruits as her meals, had gained a lot of internal strength. At least now, when she used light skills, her speed was several times faster than a few days ago.

"It's time to go back."

Looking at the direction of the exile team, Liu Yiyu said to himself.

Although they were going back, in fact the distance between them and the team was not far, and it only took half an hour to drive the horse-drawn carriage there.

At this time, the exile team was already some distance away from the capital.

Xu Yingjie was thinking whether he should use the one hundred taels he had left to exchange for two spots to have their shackles removed.

Although he practiced martial arts and could barely hold on with the shackles, it was still not very convenient.

Moreover, after the long journey of several days, the old ladies and children in both families could not bear it anymore.

If he and Zhang Yao removed the shackles, they could still carry people forward and make the elderly and children feel more relaxed.

Just when the team stopped to rest and Xu Yingjie was about to go and have a chat with the officer, Liu Yiyu's figure appeared.

"Yuzhu!"

Seeing Liu Yiyu, Xu Yingjie couldn't help but whispered her name in surprise.

After not seeing her for a few days, he felt that Yuzhu had grown a lot taller and her temperament had changed a little.

"Brother Jie, let me tell the officer something first."

After Liu Yiyu finished speaking, she went to the leader of the officers.

"You want to remove the shackles from those two?"

"Yes, my lord."

Liu Yiyun said, stuffing a silver note of 100 taels into the official's hand, "My carriage is following the team. It would be better if the old lady and children at home could get on the carriage occasionally to rest."

"This one……"

Seeing that the officer did not agree immediately, she took out a silver note worth one hundred taels and handed it over.

"Okay, I like you, so I'll give you this face."

The chief constable got two hundred taels of silver at once, and he felt very happy, but he still pretended to be serious.

"Thank you, sir."

With the silver as a foundation, the shackles of Xu Yingjie and Zhang Yao were removed, and both of them felt a lot more relaxed.

As for why the prisoner's feet must be bound, it is because they are afraid that the man will escape if he has the strength. Especially for someone like Zhang Yao who has some martial arts skills, he will not take off the shackles no matter how much money he is offered.

Fortunately, Xu Yingjie now has some internal strength, so he can still bear the weight of the shackles.

Since she had the permission from the official, Liu Yiyu directly made way for a carriage, helped the old lady to sit down, took out a small square table, and asked everyone to sit around it to eat.

Although the carriage was of the largest specification, it was still a little difficult to seat the two families. In the end, Xu Yingjie and Zhang Yao ate while standing outside the carriage.

But even so, everyone had a relaxed smile on their faces.

After dinner, Xu Yingjie couldn't wait to pull Liu Yiyu aside.

"Yuzhu, how did you get the news from my father and the others?"

Seeing the look of fear and expectation in Xu Yingjie's eyes, Liu Yiyu chose to tell the truth.

As the only descendant of the Xu family, this is what he must endure.

"The Marquis was killed two days ago. I heard that General Zhang escaped. I can't get any other news."

Upon hearing that his father had been murdered, Xu Yingjie's face turned visibly pale.

Although he knew that his family had been convicted of treason and exiled, his father, whom the emperor feared the most, could not escape easily.

But when the dust finally settled, he still found it hard to accept it.

However, he had no time to continue grieving, as the team would soon set off.

This time, the old lady and Xiaoyue stayed in the carriage driven by Qingmo, while Liu Yiyu asked Xiao Yi to drive another carriage behind.

Occasionally, when Xu's mother and Mrs. Zhang were tired, they would get on the carriage to rest, and even if the officials saw it, they didn't say much.

They traveled like this for another half a month. Whatever food or clothes they needed, Liu Yiyu would use her light skills to buy them.

Just like that, her lightness skills became more and more proficient and her speed became faster and faster.

The Xu family also gradually accepted the fact that Marquis Weiwu had been beheaded. When the old lady learned that her son was gone, she fainted on the spot.

Fortunately, there was a carriage for her to lie down in, and with Liu Yiyu's spiritual spring water for daily nourishment, the old lady's body slowly recovered.

Xu Yingjie has also lost a lot of weight during this period. Not only does he have to take care of the old lady, but he also has to worry about his mother, fearing that she will ignore everything and follow his father.

Therefore, he looked exhausted, but also looked more calm and resolute.

If everyone saw him as a teenager before, now they will unconsciously treat him as an adult and treat him equally.

Looking at Xu Yingjie like this, Liu Yiyu knew that she could tell him the second news.

"I heard a piece of news when I went to town to buy something a few days ago."

Xu Yingjie didn't say anything, but he looked at Liu Yiyu seriously, obviously waiting for her next words.

"Jiang Yueying has entered the palace as a concubine, and I heard she is very favored."

Xu Yingjie's pupils constricted, and although his expression remained unchanged, his hands were clenched tightly.

"I also got some inside information, saying that Jiang Yueying helped the emperor in some way, which is why she was made a concubine as soon as she entered the palace as an exception."

When Liu Yiyun said this, Xu Yingjie, who had been looking down, suddenly raised his head and asked, "What do you mean?"

The sharpness in his eyes seemed to penetrate Liu Yiyu's entire body, as if she was some kind of enemy.

Liu Yiyu was stunned by his gaze, and then anger rose in her heart.

What? She couldn't just tell the truth, wasn't she implying that Jiang Yueying had done something wrong to him?

Not only did he not believe her, he even became hostile towards her.

She was just stating the facts, not slandering Jiang Yueying, really...

Seeing Xu Yingjie staring at her with his eyes red, Liu Yiyu suddenly felt quite bored.

When she thinks back on some of her earlier plans, she still feels that they were a bit superficial.

Knowing that bootlickers are one thing, but only when you really face them do you realize that these people are truly hopeless.

Thinking about the past half month of getting along, she had devoted herself to the Xu family and tried her best to help the Xu family get through the most difficult days.

It is no exaggeration to say that he saved several lives of the Xu family. This is more than enough to offset the favor owed by the original owner.

Next, as long as everything is well organized, there will be no problem for the Xu family to reach their destination safely.
