Confiscated my property and exiled me, I emptied the emperor's old nest to escape famine

The death of the leading general has affected the morale of the army.

Many soldiers have already begun to whisper to each other in panic: "Still looking for the murderer?"

"Should we think about how to protect ourselves?"

"The general died in an unclear manner. I'm afraid we won't be able to explain it even if we go to the capital."

"Besides, the general is dead. Who should we look for in the capital?"

"We don't even know what to do in the capital."

"The campaign started off badly, and now even the general has died... This is a big taboo."

"We won't really go to the capital this time without returning, right?"

"Could it be that they are calling us back to the capital to start a rebellion?"

Ye Fei listened to the soldiers' uneasy discussions and had some guesses in his mind.

She guessed that these soldiers were indeed heading to the capital.

However, they encountered an ambush or battle on their way back to Beijing, resulting in heavy casualties.

Now, the death of their leading general shattered the last bit of faith in their hearts.

Ye Fei lowered his head and thought.

She was also wondering what had happened in the capital and why troops were being transferred back from the local area.

Because under normal circumstances, the capital would not issue such an order.

Although Ye Fei was on the road to exile, she still knew this common sense.

Seeing that the army was in chaos, a young general stepped forward to assert his authority: "Shut up!"

"These are just their one-sided statements, and they are all nonsense."

"We are warriors on the battlefield. How can we believe these ignorant words?"

"Immediately take the general's body and the others back to the capital to deal with them."

The young general pointed at Ye Fei's family and looked at the escorts: "I want to take them away. Do you have any objections?"

The jailer had no objection to this.

After all, the leading general did die near Ye Fei's family.

Looking at the reaction of the escort, Ye Qingyun immediately nervously protected Ye Fei and the others.

The veins on his hands bulged violently, as if he was ready to rush out and fight those soldiers at any time.

Another wave of fugitives looked at what happened to Ye Fei's family, and most of them were indifferent.

Even the few exiles who sympathized with Ye Fei's family did not dare to speak up for them.

Ye Qingfeng was not afraid.

He once again spoke up for Ye Fei's family: "No, the general's death has nothing to do with them, why should we take them away?"

"You guys can look for the murderer as much as you want."

"What kind of skill is it to pull a powerless person out to act as a murderer?"

The soldiers looked unhappy when Ye Qingfeng said this.

Ye Fei admired Ye Qingfeng more and more from the bottom of her heart.

Someone like Ye Qingfeng, who is willing to stand up for his family members, does indeed have the demeanor of a head of the family.

Ye Fei glanced at Ye Qingyun and the others out of the corner of his eye.

She found that Ye Qingyun, Lin Xue'e and Ye Ling all looked very touched.

They did not avoid Ye Qingfeng as if he were the plague as they did before when they saw him approaching.

Just as the Ye family was about to unite again to resist the soldiers, and the soldiers were about to take ruthless action to vent their anger on the Ye family, Ye Fei took advantage of the chaos and threw a few stones.

And these stones hit the soldiers who had the most ill will towards Ye Fei's family.

The most noisy soldiers immediately fell down.

The bailiff took this opportunity to shout, "Stop, everyone, stop now, don't mess around."

Everyone fell silent and stopped taking action.

What if the soldiers didn't experience the death of their leading general just now?

But now, the deaths of these soldiers happened right under their noses.

The soldiers immediately believed the mysterious deaths that the exiles and bailiffs had told them about.

The already demoralized army now had even more intention to retreat.

Ye Fei heard some young generals whispering to each other: "We should hurry up and take the general's body back to the capital, so as not to miss the time."

Although there were differences of opinion among the soldiers.

However, in view of the two consecutive strange deaths, they did not force it.

The mighty army just compromised.

Then, they disappeared from the sight of the fugitives, raising a huge amount of dust.

Ye Qingyun waited until the army had completely disappeared before he dared to completely relax his body.

When he relaxed, Ye Fei found that he was sweating a lot.

Although Ye Qingfeng helped Ye Fei's family out of trouble, he did not come forward to help them without being tactful.

Although Ye Qingyun felt a little awkward, he still went over to thank Ye Qingfeng and other members of the Ye family in a generous and appropriate manner.

Compared with the harmony on the Ye family's side, the situation of the fugitives on the other side is different.

Some of the female prisoners did receive some water and food because they accompanied the soldiers.

But not only do they have to share food with their men, but they are also insulted and beaten by their men and lose their virginity.

It was just that the series of strange deaths made them believe even more in Ye Qingyun's nonsense.

So soon, many people at the scene knelt on the ground and prayed to the gods around them or to the heavens for thanks.

The deaths of the leading general and several sergeants also brought back bad memories for the police officers.

Many of them were still terrified and whispered to each other: "Will we never be able to touch these female prisoners again?"

"If I touch it, will I die inexplicably?"

"I remember... this happened last time."

"How is that possible? No way."

"Didn't you notice a pattern?"

"As long as the female prisoner is willing, there will be no problem."

After discussion, the escorts found that nothing would happen if the female prisoners volunteered.

Some of them were happy about the result, while others were worried about it.

Especially those escorts who turned their attention to the women of the Ye family were poured a bucket of cold water.

Ye Fei found the bailiff's comments quite funny.

But they did hit on one point.

If the female prisoner voluntarily commits herself, nothing will happen.

Because Ye Fei would not meddle in other people's business.

Because of the unexpected incident in the army, the escorts were in no mood to stay and rest.

They urged the convicts to get up and hurry on their way.

Ye Fei and his family patted the leaves off their bodies and stood up.

Immediately, the familiar clanking sound of shackles that Ye Fei was familiar with was heard again in the exile team.

Before dark, the escort led the crowd to find a place to stay overnight in the wild.

Ye Fei knew at a glance that these exiles still had no chance to enter the city openly.

She also found that the exiled population was more compliant than before.

Except when necessary, most of the prisoners don't even want to talk, let alone argue.

Every time they stopped to rest, they were quieter to reduce their own consumption.

However, Ye Fei felt that the exile's state was more like a stagnation.

But this time the rest was still not peaceful, because Ye Fei felt the murderous aura all around him.

The murderous aura was so strong that even the jailer, whose martial arts skills had not reached the upper level, felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Ye Fei saw that they were holding their weapons tightly and looking around constantly.

Although the convicts do not know martial arts, they all have intuition.

Many prisoners in shackles began to look for cover to protect themselves.
