The general's wife took her child on the road to exile

The people in the palace standing in the front yard were silent. Surrounding them were a group of elite soldiers wearing armor and holding spears. Li Shutong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, stood in front of the soldiers.

The light from his long, narrow triangular eyes was as cold and terrifying as a poisonous snake. Li Shutong stared at the general's wife Ye Jiu's beautiful face viciously and said:

"Hey! Isn't this the wife of the general who guards the country? General Gu...deceived the emperor and attempted to rebel...I, the commander, have been ordered to confiscate his property. The emperor has issued an edict that all the people in the general's mansion...will be exiled to the Southern Wilderness. Madam Gu, you've come at the right time!"

As soon as the commander finished speaking, he waved his hand and ordered the armored troops behind him to rush into the backyard.

Ye Jiu stood in front of everyone in the palace, and suddenly a little hand timidly pulled her. The baby's pink face had a pair of big watery eyes. When the baby smiled, there was a cute dimple on her cheek.

Ye Jiu looked at the strange little girl in front of him. She was wearing a pink skirt and had a Nezha hairstyle.

"Mother, Shuang'er is so scared, my brother is still over there..."

Ye Jiu followed her line of sight and saw her brother Zhen'er with a serious face... like a little adult. He was wearing a light blue crown and robes, and his neatly combed black hair was crowned with a mutton-fat jade button. His little face was full of solemnity.

This demeanor was not in line with his nine-year-old age. The little boy clenched his fists in anger, and his eyes were cold.

"Don't be afraid, dear Shuang'er, mother is here..."

Ye Jiu held the baby girl in her arms and spoke softly. Ye Jiu gently stroked the top of the baby girl's head and hugged the baby girl... The chubby little baby was trembling with fear in her arms and Shuang'er stopped making any sound.

Suddenly, a small group of armored soldiers came running back. They said in panic, "Oh no, Commander, the warehouse is empty... There is only a blue water word left by the bandits on the wall."

"Hmm... "water"? Which bandit leader left this trace, or did the palace secretly move the property away?"

For a moment... Commander Li Shutong was a little confused. His face was gloomy, and his body was shaking a little with anger. His slender fingers were grasping the handle of the whip, and his finger bones had turned white.

Another group of armored soldiers came back and reported anxiously: "Commander-in-chief, the kitchen of the palace is also empty. There is no food or vegetables. Even the pots, pans, and water jars are gone. The storehouse for storing vegetables is also empty."

The third team came back and said that all the furniture in the main house of the mansion was gone, and all the things in other houses were gone, leaving the walls bare everywhere.

After listening to the soldiers' reports, Li Shutong was so angry that he vomited blood. In an instant, the commander Li Shutong was furious. He took out a whip and shouted to everyone in the palace:

"Tell me where you transferred the palace's property to. If you don't tell me, I'll beat you to death!"

Everyone in the palace looked at each other, wondering where the things that were in the room just now had gone?

At this time, a group of armored soldiers came in from outside the palace gate and reported to Li Shutong:

"Commander, the Third Prince's mansion was robbed. All the warehouses were emptied in an instant. There was only one mark... a blue water word on the wall."

Another team of armored soldiers came running in, and they reported urgently:

"Report, the Fifth Prince's mansion was robbed, all the items in the warehouses were gone, all the warehouses were empty, no one in the mansion heard the robbers' movements, and the huge amount of goods in the warehouse disappeared without a trace in an instant."

Upon hearing this... Commander Li Shutong's face turned pale instantly, his hands were shaking violently, Li Shutong swallowed hard, took a breath, and calmed himself.

Another team of armored troops came with an urgent report:

"Report, the palace was robbed, the national treasury is empty, the private treasury is the same, the ladies' storehouses are all empty, the imperial kitchen and the imperial hospital are also empty, the emperor wants you to see him as soon as possible!"

The muscles on Commander Li Shutong's face twitched strangely, and he felt that he could no longer stand.

In a trance... Li Shutong felt that he could no longer keep his position.

He said angrily: "Damn it, this little thief, how dare he do this..."

Li Shutong was anxious to return to the palace... He ordered his deputy Li Yu to detain everyone in the palace and put them in jail, and quickly seal off the palace.

He jumped on his horse and hurried back to the palace.

The corners of Ye Jiu's lips slightly raised for a moment, and her cold and gentle face returned to calm.

The short and fat deputy commander Li Yu had a gloomy face. He ordered the soldiers to drive everyone in the palace to change their brocade robes. They all changed into worn-out coarse linen prisoner uniforms, and took off their jewelry, jade pendants, and jade belts and placed them on the tray in the soldiers' hands.

Some women in the mansion were slow in taking the gold hairpin, so the soldier reached out and snatched it from her head.

Aunt Zhao was hurt by the pulling and she held back tears of grievance. She did not dare to cry out loud, but just shed tears silently.

All the men in the mansion wore heavy wooden shackles and had heavy iron chains tied around their ankles.

The women had iron chains on their ankles and did not wear wooden shackles.

Only a few children under ten years old did not have suitable chains, so they were not locked up.

The iron chains around their ankles were very thick. When they walked, the chains rattled, and their ankles hurt with every step they took.

While no one was paying attention, Ye Jiu quietly used her gold-related abilities to extract the iron element from the iron chain. Gradually, the iron chain under her feet became much lighter...

At this moment, the iron chain on her ankle was just a thin layer of iron on the outside, and it still made a rattling sound. Ye Jiu used her wood-type ability to weave a grass wrist guard on the flesh of her wrist and attached it to the buckle around her ankle. She then used her wood-type ability to circle the painful part of her ankle, and the places that were rubbed red by the iron chain instantly returned to their original state.

Ye Jiu has four types of supernatural powers.

The four elements are gold, wood, ice, and fire.

Just now she realized that after she came here, her gold-type supernatural power that had reached the ninth level in the apocalypse is now only the fourth level.

Originally, she could draw gold elements from the air and condense them into metal objects at will, but now it was very difficult for her to condense them, and she could only produce metal like thin needles.

She couldn't easily condense the large metal weapons she could during the apocalyptic battle. At that time, she could dissolve the original form of the metal object with a wave of her hand, and she could change the shape of that thing again in an instant.

Ye Jiu's eighth-level wood-related ability in the end times has both healing and offensive... effects.

At this point, her wood-based ability was only at the third level. Her ability could no longer attack, and could only have a slight healing effect.

She can treat minor injuries, such as damaged tendons in the hands and feet, which cannot be cured with her level of skill.

Maybe she can give it a try when she recovers her ability level in the future.

It would not be difficult to restore her original eighth-level supernatural power if she had plenty of resources and time.

It’s not possible at the moment. There is no time to practice, and there is also a lack of precious crystals with super energy.

The seventh-order ice ability she possessed in the end times has now been reduced to the second order, and now she can only freeze small objects.

She couldn't think of using her ice power to condense ice cones to attack the enemy at will like in the end times.

Her fire ability was even more pitiful, going directly from the sixth level to the first level.

I guess with this ability she can use it to light a fire outside.

Ye Jiu smiled bitterly...

Let’s start over. She was blown away by a bomb in the end times. Now her soul is preserved by using the shell of the original owner. We are lucky.

In the courtyard, the people in the palace who had taken off their gorgeous clothes had changed their temperaments and their expressions were different.

Gu Yiwen, the third master of the Gu family, who was standing on the east side, was filled with remorse and anger. He shouted at Ye Jiu:

"Sister-in-law, our Third House has done nothing wrong. We have been innocently implicated by your First House. Tell me, what should we do?"

Night Nine...

She asked seriously?

"Oh, so what do you want to do? How do you want to do it?"

Ye Jiu asked coldly?

"We should split up, we should split up. We don't want to be exiled with you. The journey to the Southern Wilderness is long and it will take three months to get there. Besides, there are many poor mountains and bad waters along the way, and there are also bandits who rob us. We don't want to die, so we won't go..."

The third master Gu Yiwen's fat face was a little distorted, and after he finished speaking, he glared at Ye Jiu fiercely.

The third wife's master, Gu Yiwen, has always been dissatisfied with the first wife.

His elder brother Gu Yiheng was a general guarding the country and held the first rank. He did not support him in the court. Gu Yiwen felt alone in the officialdom and could not make a difference.

Gu Yiwen's fifth-rank position was just an honorary one. He had no real power and no one supported him. This made Gu Yiwen, the third master who had been loved by his family since childhood, unable to accept the blow of his family being confiscated. Gu Yiwen turned evil. He couldn't control his mouth at this moment, and the dark side of Gu Yiwen's heart gradually revealed itself.

Ye Jiu said nothing and looked around at everyone coldly.

Everyone had different expressions, many of them supported the third room, and Ye Jiu pursed his lips.

"As you wish, let's divide the family. The Gu family is going to confiscate our property now, and we have no property at the moment. Since everyone is like this, let's just divide it.

Mother, follow us. You three will stay alone from here to the Southern Wasteland. If you have any problems, don't come to me and the prince. Don't regret it!"

Ye Jiu finished speaking in a cold voice, her phoenix eyes flashing with displeasure and anger, and Ye Jiu stared at the people in the second room.

She asked, "Do you guys share too?"

The honest and straightforward second master Gu Yinan waved his hands to his eldest sister-in-law:

"No...no...we don't divide, sister-in-law, our second branch wants to follow you."

The master of the second house, Gu Yinan, had just finished speaking to Ye Jiu when the wife of the second house, Xu, anxiously pulled Gu Yinan's sleeve. Before Xu could finish her words about wanting to divide the family, she stopped him.

Gu Yinan glared at her, and Xu was so scared that she swallowed her words back. She was so hateful in her heart.

Mrs. Xu didn't want to go with the first wife, but Mrs. Xu, the second wife, knew that she couldn't beat the master Gu Yinan.

Even though Gu Yinan behaves submissively in front of the first wife, his words are law in front of Xu. If Xu dares to go against Gu Yinan's words, she will be in danger of being divorced.

The second wife, Mrs. Xu, glared with her triangular eyes, and she was hateful... She gritted her teeth secretly, and she held back the blood that had just gushed out. Mrs. Xu turned her head and glared at the second wife, Mrs. Liu, and she walked forward with a look of despair on her face.

Aunt Liu swayed her slender waist and walked silently in the team with her son Gu Qingyu on her back.

She knew that what she needed to do now was to catch up quickly.

Aunt Liu tried to speak as little as possible.
