It turned out that the list that Jiang Nianwei had submitted before played a role, as Prince Yu was investigating a case of embezzlement and bribery.
In order to keep his own official hat, Shi Junxian's superior officials did not hesitate to push all the blame onto Shi Junxian. At this moment, Shi Junxian was stuck in a quagmire and could hardly save himself.
Qin Ziqian's fear instantly spread.
He originally thought that the officers and soldiers were targeting him, but now it seemed that he was just an insignificant pawn in this turmoil. He took advantage of the chaos and escaped back to the inn.
When Zhuang Qiuhe saw her son coming back drunk, she couldn't help but complain, "Ziqian, why did you come back just now? I must ask Lord Shi to severely punish the Jiang family. Look at what they did to us yesterday!"
Qin Ziqian had not yet come to his senses, still immersed in the panic just now, Zhuang Qiuhe called him several times: "Ziqian, did you hear it?"
He finally woke up from his dream, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and his voice was hurried and nervous: "Hurry, we must pack up immediately. The exile team has not set off yet. We have to leave this place quickly!"
Zhuang Qiuhe was a little puzzled. She frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say there was a way to stay in Chunzhou?"
Qin Ziqian shook his head repeatedly. If he was found to be involved with Shi Junxian, it would be a crime on top of a crime. "I can't stay here anymore."
Shi Junxian himself had been arrested, and his flattery and following him last night were all in vain.
When Qin Ziqian went to look for Meng Wanran again, he found that she was gone. "Where is Wanran? Where did she go?"
"I haven't seen her since last night. I wonder where the little bitch has gone off to."
"Mother, things are different now. You shouldn't treat Wan Ran like this. At least she is still willing to follow me. Look at that bitch Jiang Nianwei. After she divorced me, her personality changed drastically. She even took advantage of our misfortune."
"Meng Wanran is indeed better than Jiang Nianwei."
Zhuang Qiuhe thought about the beating she received yesterday and her body was now sore. Hearing her son say this, she could only start packing her bags quickly. But when she thought about having to live such a hard life again, she couldn't help but feel sad.
Qin Ziqian originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape from here, but if they ran away, they would become fugitives and would have no identity documents. Their guilt would be confirmed and there would be no chance of turning things around. It would be better for him to follow the exile team obediently, at least he could save his life and have a chance to overturn the case.
Qin Ziqian was desperate to find Meng Wanran, and time was running out, but he saw Meng Wanran pushing the door open in a delicate pink dress, "Ziqian, do you know that you have made a big mistake!"
Qin Ziqian felt guilty, "Wan Ran, what are you talking about? Let's leave this troubled place quickly."
He stretched out his hand, wanting to hold Meng Wanran's hands, but she took a few steps back with a determined look on her face, avoiding his hands.
It turned out that after Qin Ziqian left yesterday, Meng Wanran received a letter. When she opened it, she found that it actually stated that Qin Ziqian would be entering and leaving Manhongyuan.
At first, Meng Wanran didn't believe that Qin Ziqian, who had sworn a solemn oath, would betray her.
After much hesitation, he finally followed the instructions in the letter and sneaked into the Manhongyuan house.
What caught the eye was an disgusting scene: Qin Ziqian was surrounded by three gorgeous women who were dressed in fancy clothes, chatting and laughing with them, reciting poems and composing couplets.
Qin Ziqian would touch her from time to time, which made her furious.
But she still endured it. After all, it would be hard to climb up to such a noble status as the Marquis. Maybe Qin Ziqian still had a chance to restore his title.
But after Shi Junxian was arrested, she thought over and over again and decided that she no longer wanted to go into exile with Qin Ziqian. Not only would she have to suffer along the way, but she would also have to face the cold eyes and criticism of her mean mother-in-law.
And the man she once thought was her support, her husband, was only loyal on the surface, but he had another face inside.
Coincidentally, at that time, a prominent wealthy businessman in Chunzhou City was posting a notice to recruit singing girls.
Although her voice could not be described as heavenly, as a time traveler, she remembered many modern melodies. With this skill, she stood out from many competitors and won the favor and appreciation of the wealthy businessman.
On the day she married into the Marquis's Mansion, there was no document proving that she was Qin Ziqian's concubine, so why should she stay by his side and suffer?
Meng Wanran resolutely threw out a bag of heavy silver and said in a cold voice: "I'm tired of the hardship of being with you. Let me go and you can keep this money. It may come in handy on the road."
Qin Ziqian's face flashed with surprise, which was then replaced by anger and humiliation. He gritted his teeth and angrily asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Meng Wanran's eyes were firm, and he did not flinch. "Let me go, and you can continue to move forward with the exile team. Otherwise, you will stay here and face the impending beheading disaster with Lord Shi!"
Zhuang Qiuhe shamelessly took the purse and said, "Ziqian, it will be too late if you don't leave now. Since she is so ruthless, you don't have to stay so long."
Qin Ziqian originally thought that the two were in love with each other, but in the end it turned out to be just wishful thinking.
"Wan Ran, we love each other, right? Why do you want to leave me?"
"Just because I like you doesn't mean I have to suffer with you. A wise bird chooses the right tree to inhabit, and so do I. Let me go. It will be good for both you and me."
After careful consideration, Qin Ziqian took the money and hurried away with his mother and sister.
As for Meng Wanran, she stood there, following Qin Ziqian's departing figure with her eyes until he disappeared from her sight. New thoughts and plans had already welled up in her mind...
The exiled team set off again, and this time Qin Ziqian was no longer arrogant.
When Zhuang Qiuhe saw the Jiang family, she felt ashamed and unwilling. She had just made some harsh remarks yesterday, but today she returned in disgrace.
Moreover, her maid was kidnapped and the bitch Meng Wanran ran away, leaving her without a single servant. But at least Meng Wanran still had some conscience and gave her a bag of silver.
Seeing her son's distraught look, she began to persuade him, "When you are rich and powerful again, you can find any woman you want. Why do you have to be obsessed with a woman like this?"
Qin Ziqian heard this and shook his head helplessly.
He originally thought that Meng Wanran was his destiny and the love of his life.
But who would have thought that she was even more cold-blooded and ruthless than Jiang Nianwei.
Jiang Nianwei has not remarried yet, but she is willing to be a lower-class singer just for fame and fortune.
Qin Ziqian gritted his teeth in his heart, but he could only endure the words that came to his lips.
It was already evening when the exile team reached the high ground. Jiang Nianwei looked down at the place where they had stayed all night and couldn't help but sigh.
The journey ahead is long, and they need to pass through Mingzhou and Longzhou, where all kinds of dangerous things happen and there is also a great hatred to be avenged. Qin Ziqian lets him suffer more and let him feel the pain of their family in the previous life.
……
At this moment, in a teahouse in Chunzhou.
A handsome man in a black brocade robe was holding a teacup, his deep eyes slightly narrowed.
A secret guard quietly appeared beside him, leaned over and whispered in his ear the results of the investigation into the incident.
The man listened quietly, gently shaking the teacup in his hand, causing ripples in the tea.
The secret guard whispered in his ear, "Your Highness, I have just found out the cause of this riot, it's all..."
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled uninhibitedly, "This woman is really smart. There is no need to pursue them. Let them go. As for the refugees in Chunzhou, those who have not committed any crime should be properly resettled, and the money can be taken from those corrupt officials."
As the night deepened, the lights in the teahouse gradually dimmed.
The man stood up, straightened his robe, and walked out of the teahouse with calm steps. His figure gradually disappeared in the night, leaving only the faint fragrance of tea in the air.
……
Jiang Nianwei discovered that the seeds that had been scattered in the space before had begun to sprout. She also confirmed that this walnut space could indeed be used to grow vegetables, so she began to take time to plant other vegetable seeds on the way.
As soon as she entered the mountains and forests of Chunzhou, she found that the place was rich in resources. She could see many wild herbs and even discovered a small Ganoderma lucidum.
Jiang Nianwei picked it up and put it into the space to cultivate it when no one was paying attention. Since plants can be grown, Ganoderma lucidum should be able to be grown as well. If it is watered with spring water, there might be unexpected results.
If she was lucky enough to come across those precious herbs, Jiang Nianwei would quietly pick a few and carefully put them into the space.
Before leaving, Jiang Nianwei specially invited a doctor to take Jiang Yan's pulse.
After taking her pulse carefully, the doctor told her that Jiang Yan just had a cold and was not seriously ill.
Since drinking the spring water, his body has gradually recovered, which made the whole family feel relieved.
Along the way, they had no worries about food and drink, and although the journey was long, they did not encounter too many uncomfortable places.
Next, they will rush to Minnesota.
Whenever she had free time, Jiang Nianwei would often stroke her beloved pipa and gently pluck the strings, "What a pity for this pipa."
Jing Qiudie also felt sorry, "A pair of hands that played the piano and painted are now weathered. Poor my daughter."
But this is not what Jiang Nianwei is talking about. She likes to play the pipa, but she has to do some unavoidable things with lyrics.
After leaving Chunzhou a few days later, we finally arrived in Mingzhou.
Qin Ziqian is still safe, and Jiang Nianwei has not found an opportunity to punish the Qin family again.
However, Meng Wanran had disappeared. Afterwards, she asked the police about Meng Wanran's whereabouts. The police only said that the superiors had ordered that she was no longer on the exile list, and he did not know the specific reason.
Jiang Nianwei was not surprised by this. Since their family had changed, Meng Wanran's fate might have also changed.
She herself was not a woman who could live at home comfortably. The reason she could stay with Qin Ziqian in her previous life was because he was at the peak of his popularity. Now that Qin Ziqian had fallen into such a state, she would definitely not be able to bear it anymore.
In a way, Jiang Nianwei still felt that Meng Wanran's character had its merits, but they were not used in the right way.
If she meets her again, she will never let her go, but for now, she can only restrain herself and wait for the opportunity.
After entering Mingzhou, I found that the customs here are very different.
The treatment they received here was obviously much worse than before. Even if they used silver to bribe others, they could not leave the place where they were imprisoned.
The men were all put in shackles and shackles to restrict their movements.
Jiang Lanxu had to persuade them and spent a lot of money to get them to keep the two carriages.
In the past few days, Jiang Siyu, who had always eaten well and slept well, suddenly felt like she was haunted by nightmares.
Every time he woke up from a dream, he would hold Jing Qiudie's hand tightly, his eyes full of fear and anxiety, "Mom, I dreamed of something bad."
Jing Qiudie could only comfort him gently: "Siyu, those are just dreams, not real things, don't be afraid."
Jiang Nianwei became suspicious and pulled her aside. "What did you dream about? Why don't you tell me?"
Jiang Siyu was too frightened to speak, until Jiang Nianwei comforted her, she told everything in her dream one by one, "I dreamed that my eldest sister-in-law was dead and two people died, my father died of illness on the way, my eldest brother was shot to death, and my second brother starved to death, but everyone was still by my side, they were fine."
What Jiang Siyu dreamed about coincided with what happened in her previous life.
She gently held Jiang Siyu's hand and said softly, "Siyu, don't be afraid. We are all fine. We will protect you and won't let anything bad happen."
After saying this, a tall officer walked into the place where they were being held.
But when she saw the tall officer appear in front of her, Jiang Siyu began to tremble with fear. She tried hard to control her emotions, but the fear that surged from the bottom of her heart was like an invisible hand, tightly grasping her neck, making her feel suffocated.
"Sister, I seem to have seen this man in my dream."
Jiang Nianwei followed her sister Jiang Siyu's gaze and her eyes fell on the officer with a conspicuous scar on his face.
He was Lu Zhengyuan, a police officer in Mingzhou City, and a villain known for his brutality and indulgence in alcohol and sex.
It was not without reason that Jiang Siyu was so frightened when she saw him. In her previous life, her sister had been humiliated and abused by him, and she couldn't bear the humiliation so much that she jumped into the river and committed suicide.
Jiang Nianwei could only give her some advice, which helped to calm her down a little.
Then her gaze slowly fell on Lu Zhengyuan. Her originally clear eyes now took on a hint of imperceptible gloom.
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Zhengyuan stepped into this place, his unpleasant gaze unscrupulously moved over several young women, like a greedy wolf searching for prey.
The women felt uncomfortable with his unscrupulous gaze and lowered their heads, trying to avoid meeting his eyes.
"Next, you will be escorted by our Mingzhou police! I'm telling you, I'm not one of those soft persimmons that are easy to deal with. If you don't obey me, I won't let you off easily."
After saying that, he swung the whip in his hand and hit the wall with a "snap", causing all the women to tremble.
If she wanted to prevent the regrets of her previous life from happening again, Jiang Nianwei knew that the stumbling block of Lu Zhengyuan must be removed.
Usually, Jiang Nianwei always wore that plain green jacket and did not wear any makeup.
But today, she asked Taozhi to find a colorful and eye-catching dress for her.
The dress instantly ignited her originally cold temperament, making her charming and attractive.
Not only that, Jiang Nianwei also put on rouge and powder for the first time. The light pink color set off her fair skin, making her look like a blooming peach blossom, delicate and gorgeous.
Jiang Lixuan's eyes fixed, and he inadvertently noticed that his sister Jiang Nianwei was acting strange. He asked softly, "Nianwei, why are you dressed like this?"
Jiang Nianwei looked solemn and explained in a low voice: "That officer has a bad temper and acts tyrannically. If we fall into his hands, I'm afraid our days in Mingzhou will not be easy."
Before he finished speaking, a commotion was heard in the distance, attracting everyone's attention.
