Old Madam Lu was deeply moved when she looked at her daughters-in-law. Her husbands and sons had died in battles one after another over the years, but they had never said a word about leaving for all these years.

"Okay, don't worry, mother will definitely protect you, Ruan, you..."

"Mom, I won't leave either. Since I'm married to Lu Zhizhou, I'm his wife. Anyway, the Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't want me to go back. You're not trying to drive me away, are you?"

Ruan Yunsheng pouted, and the sadness in his heart was instantly dispersed by him.

She originally wanted to escape, but these sisters-in-law still protected her when she was in such danger.

Not only the original owner, but this was also the first time she experienced the feeling of being cared for by her family, and it was a wonderful feeling.

"Don't rush me, don't rush me. They are all my good daughters and good sons of the Lu family."

The old women in charge of watching over the family were also moved by this scene. It was the first time in all these years that they saw a family that was still so united even though they were about to be exiled.

"It's just that Zhizhou's injuries... If there's no doctor, I'm afraid he won't be able to continue on his journey."

Ruan Yunsheng was also worried. The development of things had deviated somewhat from the historical content, and since Cao Wu had not gained any benefits in the General's Mansion, he would probably not give them any convenience.

"Mom, I have learned medical skills. If you trust me, I will secretly check Zhizhou's wound while the soldiers are not paying attention."

"Humph, a bastard like you can know medical skills. I'm afraid you want to kill my seventh brother."

Lu Yunruo, who was a little sheep just now, suddenly turned arrogant again. In her heart, she always felt that it was the unlucky Ruan Yunsheng who caused her seventh brother to become like this.

"Shut up, Xiao Ba, who allowed you to talk to your sister-in-law like that? Is this what I usually teach you?"

As soon as Madam Lu said this, Lu Yunruo instantly became much more obedient, but the anger in his eyes did not diminish at all.

Ruan Yunsheng looked at her sister-in-law helplessly. She was afraid that she still didn't understand the current situation clearly.

"Ruan, thank you for your help. But even if we knew the extent of the injury, we would not be able to buy medicine. All the money has been..."

Madam Lu looked ashen. Without money during the exile, she would have no way to survive. Without money, how could she bribe those cruel officials?

It is even more difficult to reach southern Xinjiang alive.

Ruan Yunsheng was also in a dilemma. She could take medicine from the space, but she couldn't take it out openly in front of so many people. If Lu Zhizhou's injury suddenly healed one day, she might be suspected.

"Are you guys ready? What are you dragging your feet for?"

Cao Wu's impatient voice came from outside the house, and everyone had to walk out slowly.

Ruan Yunsheng was walking at the back, and just as she was about to step out the door, someone beside her secretly stuffed a bottle into her hand.

Ruan Yunsheng looked to the side and saw the old woman nodded, then scolded her angrily.

"What are you looking at, you little bitch? Hurry up and leave."

Ruan Yunsheng felt something was a little strange but didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly put the thing in his hand into the space.

"A few of you will stay behind to guard the servants and these scrap metals in the mansion, and the rest of you will take the prisoners in this mansion to the outskirts of the city."

After saying that, Cao Wu looked at Ruan Yunsheng greedily, then turned around and left reluctantly.

Ruan Yunsheng narrowed her eyes as she looked at Cao Wu's back. This man must not be kept, but she had to take care of the whole family now, so she could only make plans later.

"You guys take the one lying down and follow me."

The officials urged the Lu family to evacuate. Lu's sister-in-law was troubled when she saw Lu Zhizhou lying on the stretcher. The journey to southern Xinjiang was very long, and it was already very difficult for them to go alone, not to mention that they had to carry a seriously ill person with them.

In less than a moment, the Lu family's sisters-in-law accepted this fact. The eldest and third sisters-in-law stepped forward to lift the stretcher, and the fourth and fifth sisters-in-law stood on both sides of the stretcher.

Ruan Yunsheng could only follow his four sisters-in-law silently. As soon as he walked out of the gate of the general's mansion, he saw that the gate of the general's mansion was full of onlookers.

Sister-in-law Meng Yanan's family had already been waiting at the door. They were businessmen and didn't care about the disputes in the court. Now that their only daughter had suffered this crime, the old couple burst into tears.

“Yanan, it’s all because of my incompetence. If I had more connections, I would have known about your misfortune earlier… Woohoo~”

Meng Yanan's originally strong heart was instantly shattered at this moment. Seeing this, Ruan Yunsheng took the stretcher from her hand.

Meng Yanan felt the weight in her hand lighten. She turned around and saw Ruan Yunsheng, who gave her a grateful look.

Then she threw herself into her mother's arms. This scene made the other three sisters-in-law's eyes tear up.

Their parents were both officials appointed by the imperial court, and they knew that there was no way they would see them again today.

Old Madam Meng took out two bulging purses from her bosom and secretly stuffed them into Meng Yanan's hands.

Meng Yanan originally didn't want the money from Old Madam Meng, but when she thought that this huge family now had no source of income, she had to accept it.

"Mother didn't have time to prepare much, so you can use it first."

Meng Yanan felt very unhappy. She had already been married and now her mother still had to worry about her.

Meng Yanan clenched her purse with both hands, her voice choked with sobs, "Mom, take good care of yourself. I am an unfilial daughter and cannot serve you. Don't worry, I still have my mother-in-law and sisters-in-law. We will definitely make it to southern Xinjiang alive."

At the same time, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion also came to Ruan Yunsheng.

"Miss Ruan, the master said that you were adopted and not his biological daughter. Today, your husband has done something so outrageous that he has no choice but to sever the relationship with you for the sake of his country."

For the sake of the country? It really makes one look good. Ruan Yunsheng looked at the housekeeper coldly.

The housekeeper handed a bundle to Ruan Yunsheng, "Here is the letter of severance from the master. From today on, your relationship as father and daughter is over. In the future, we will have no connection in life, death or sickness. There is some small change in the bundle as a token of his fulfillment of your father-daughter relationship over the past ten years."

Seeing this, Meng Yanan took the stretcher from Ruan Yunsheng. Ruan Yunsheng took the bag from the housekeeper. She was not from this era and had no feelings for her dead father.

Small change? Oh, this is probably what the Prime Minister's Mansion got after selling everything that could be sold. The Prime Minister's Mansion was robbed and the government couldn't find out who the thief was, so the case could only be closed as an ordinary theft.

But it was a bit unexpected that she could still be given money like this.

"Turns out he's a fake, what a jinx."

Lu Yunruo murmured softly. Except for her, the other sisters-in-law of the Lu family felt very sympathetic towards Ruan Yunsheng.

She was married off by mistake and was exiled right after her wedding. On the day of exile, she learned about her life experience and her adoptive father wanted to break off the relationship with her.

All these bad things happened to her alone.
