Confiscated the property and exiled? I emptied the warehouse and fled the famine.

The group walked under the sun for the entire afternoon. They had only had breakfast in the morning and had not eaten anything all day. They were already starving.

Ruan Yunsheng had no experience of exile. She only knew that the food on the road of exile would not be good, and it would be good enough to have something to eat. However, reality soon gave Ruan Yunsheng a blow, and she realized what it meant to have difficulty in eating.

"Come on, sit down and have a rest. It's time for dinner."

The leading officer shouted loudly, "The big cakes are free, and the white flour buns are two for one ounce of silver."

Ruan Yunsheng was stunned. These officers and soldiers were really amazing. They could obviously rob money openly, but now they gave you a practical excuse.

White flour steamed buns usually sold for only two cents each, but now they cost two for one tael of silver, which was a sky-high price for the exiled people.

"Mom, I want to eat white flour buns."

It goes without saying that the pancake must be unpalatable, Lu Yunruo pulled Madam Lu's arm.

The general's mansion was looted, and the few dozen taels of silver they had on them were also taken away. Now she was also penniless. Only the eldest and youngest daughters-in-law had money. But how could she, as an elder, take the money of the younger ones? Besides, the money had to be used to sustain her until she reached southern Xinjiang.

Seeing that her daughter still couldn't recognize the facts and was still being picky like a young lady, she immediately put on a stern face and pretended to be angry.

"Xiao Ba, we are no longer in the general's mansion. If you want to eat white flour buns, you must exchange them with money."

"Mom, how can I have money? That jinx has money, right? Let her go and change it."

Old Madam Lu felt a pain in her heart when she looked at her spoiled daughter. The daughter whom she had taught so carefully now had a jinx on both sides.

"Xiao Ba, if you dare to call your sister-in-law a jinx again, I will not have you as my daughter anymore."

Lu Yunruo opened her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief. She never expected that her mother, who had always loved her, would treat her like this for a stranger.

"Mother, you were so mean to me because of her. Am I wrong? If she wasn't a jinx, why did our Lu family suffer exile as soon as she married into the family?"

Old Madam Lu closed her eyes. There were some things she knew very well but she didn't know how to tell Lu Yunruo.

When the other sisters-in-law of the Lu family heard Lu Yunruo say this, they really felt that their current situation was caused by Ruan Yunsheng.

Ruan Yunsheng sighed lightly. The thoughts of the ancients were really stubborn. Madam Lu had some concerns, but she would not indulge her.

"Lu Yunruo, listen to me. What happened to your Lu family today has nothing to do with me, Ruan Yunsheng. Even if I don't marry Lu Zhizhou, your Lu family will be exiled. Don't you understand yet? These..."

"Ruan..."

Old Madam Lu spoke out to stop them. She didn't want her daughters and daughters-in-law to know about those things and didn't want them to worry for no reason.

"Mom, they have the right to know the truth. I have no reason to bear the stigma. Besides, they are not children anymore. I don't know what they will encounter along the way. How can a family reach southern Xinjiang if they are not united?"

Old Madam Lu sighed, she knew what Ruan meant. Well, they had to grow up eventually. Just like Ruan said, no one knew how many things would happen along the way. How could they reach Southern Xinjiang if they were not united?

"Does anyone want white flour buns? If you haven't got any, come get some quickly."

At the urging of the officers and soldiers, Ruan Yunsheng stood up and walked over, took a few large pancakes and distributed one to each of them.

If I spend all the money on the first day of exile, how will I live in the future?

"I don't want to eat." Lu Yunruo looked at Ruan Yunsheng viciously. She didn't want to eat any pancakes. She wanted to eat white flour buns.

Faced with her sister-in-law's unreasonable behavior, Ruan Yunsheng chose not to indulge her. She put her pancake into her arms, and then found a place to sit down.

"The Lu family has been loyal for generations. The enemy troops on the border are terrified when they hear the reputation of the Lu family's troops. The support of the people and the fear of the enemy are all death warrants for the Lu family. When Lu Zhizhou pacifies the border, Dongling will naturally no longer need the God of War General. His achievements are greater than his master's. Which king would allow a general with a large army and a great reputation to exist?"

"If the Lu family rebels one day, do you think those good-for-nothings in the imperial city can stop them? If you were the king, would you allow such a thing to happen?"

After hearing Ruan Yunsheng's words, everyone fell silent. Even Old Madam Lu seemed to be looking back on some sad past.

In fact, General Lu had predicted long ago that one day the border would no longer need the Lu family, and the Lu family would undoubtedly die. Originally, Madam Lu advised General Lu to retire, but General Lu at that time was worried about the people on the border. If he retreated, the border would be lost.

General Lu wanted to take a gamble, betting that the king would not be ruthless, but he didn't expect that he would lose the bet in the end.

"Do you still think that exile has anything to do with me?"

Lu Yunruo was stunned. Was it wrong for her to be so loyal and brave, which she was always proud of? Was it wrong for her father, brothers and sisters-in-law to sacrifice themselves? Was it wrong for her to protect the people?

"Lu Yunruo, you are not a child anymore. If you still can't learn to grow up, I advise you to kill yourself as soon as possible. The General's Mansion is gone, and you will no longer be the delicate young lady."

The other sisters-in-law pursed their lips and looked at Ruan Yunsheng with guilt. Just now they had even doubted whether it was really related to Ruan Yunsheng.

"Sister-in-law Yun Sheng, I'm sorry. I really believed that superstition just now."

"That third sister-in-law is also sorry for you."

"The same goes for the fourth sister-in-law. Yun Sheng, don't bother with her."

"Yes, Sister-in-law Yun Sheng knows she was wrong."

Ruan Yunsheng looked at his four sisters-in-law and smiled gently. The matter was over like this. Only Lu Yunruo remained silent.

Night was about to fall, and it was no longer possible to continue on the journey. The leader of the soldiers ordered them to spend the night in this wilderness.

Ruan Yunsheng glanced at Lu Zhizhou who was lying behind her. This was a good thing. She could check on Lu Zhizhou's injuries at night when everyone was asleep. Although his injuries were not fatal, they would probably get worse if not treated in time.

Fortunately, she secretly fed Lu Zhizhou a hemostatic pill before leaving, but the weather is hot now, and if it is not treated quickly, it may cause bacterial infection.

Ruan Yunsheng finally waited until everyone fell asleep, and she quietly moved to Lu Zhizhou's side.

She took out a bowl of water from the space and fed it to Lu Zhizhou, "Lu Zhizhou is me."

Lu Zhizhou, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them. He looked at Ruan Yunsheng in confusion. Until now, he still couldn't figure out why Ruan Yunsheng, who had nothing to do with him, would help him.

"Why help me?"

Ruan Yunsheng was stunned. "Because you have a good figure and can give birth to eight children?"

Ruan Yunsheng wanted to bite her tongue off. What kind of outrageous words were she saying? Lu Zhizhou's originally pale cheeks were now tinged with a blush.
