After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

When he walked out of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, he was surrounded by people watching the fun.

Since its establishment, the Marquis' Mansion has always treated its neighbors and people in a friendly manner, so there is no one throwing rotten eggs.

The yamen runners maintained order, and Old Madam Shen and the three ladies walked in front.

Four men walked behind.

Shen Jinyao and a few others walked at the end with Qiu Yan and the others.

Shen Jinyao pulled Dongmei to a corner and looked at the yamen runner in front of her.

"Dongmei, take this and go buy something. Wait for us somewhere further outside the city gate."

Dongmei touched the paper in her hand and it should be a silver note.

The banknote that the young lady brought back?

Dongmei was a little nervous, but she remained calm.

"Miss, what are you buying?"

"Buy two carriages, some food and water bags for you to take away. In addition, buy two sets of clothes, one for me and the other for you."

“Remember, quality isn’t important, just speed is.”

Originally, Dongmei had to go alone, which would have wasted some time.

But Shen Jinyao couldn't trust the rest of the people at all.

The departure of a maid was not noticeable in the bustling crowd.

The imperial edict required that the Shen family must leave Shangjing City within one hour.

There is still half an hour left. As long as Dongmei doesn't worry about the money and doesn't compare prices, she will definitely be able to get ahead of them.

Shen Tingyao had never seen such a scene before, and she gritted her teeth in hatred.

Shen Leyao followed Shen Jinyao, walking with her head held high.

Shen Jinyao walked to the side of the second son Shen Zhiyong, and next to him were the other brothers of the Shen family.

She said loudly: "Zhiyong, don't bow your head! You are the eldest brother among the brothers. Even if the Shen family was exiled, it was slandered."

After listening to this, Shen Zhiyong immediately raised his head.

The imperial edict just now said that the Marquis was colluding with foreign parties, but he didn't believe it.

Second uncle is a kind person and would never do anything that would be detrimental to the Shen family.

"Brothers, didn't you hear what your eldest sister said? Hold your heads high. The Shen family must hold their heads high!"

Logically speaking, such words are somewhat treasonous. Isn't this a denial of the emperor's judgment?

But the words of a few children have little power.

The yamen runners were too lazy to care.

They just wanted to get the Shen family out as soon as possible and give them household registration so that they could report to their superiors.

As for how they will get to Quzhou and whether they will die on the way, is there any need to think about it?

They were not allowed to bring anything with them. It would be a wonder if a group of unarmed women, children and the elderly could survive.

The entire exile team heard Shen Jinyao's words.

Old Madam Shen curled the corners of her mouth, finally there was someone who could stand up.

It’s a pity that she is a girl.

Shen Jinyao didn't know what the old lady was thinking. She was a soldier and had a never-give-up spirit in her blood.

Although she had only been in the Marquis' Mansion for a few days, she could clearly see that the Marquis' Mansion was a kind family.

It is understandable to say that the Marquis was involved in the establishment of the crown prince, but it is impossible to say that he collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.

Her current fate is tied to the Marquis' Mansion and these women and children.

At this moment, she felt like she was Shen Jinyao of the Shen family.

She needs to shoulder the responsibilities of the eldest daughter of the Shen family.

Regardless of gender, she is the oldest.

She is more flexible than the ladies and more mature than her brothers.

What's more, she also has the entire warehouse of the Marquis' Mansion.

What is she afraid of?

Just go into exile.

Just at noon, the Shen family arrived at the city gate.

The guards at the city gate were waiting for the Shen family.

"Shen family, come and get your household registration."

All exiled people will have special marks on their household registration, so they can only stay in the place of exile.

"Zhiyong, let's go."

Shen Jinyao led the way in front, and Shen Zhiyong followed closely.

The yamen runner was surprised that it was a young lady who came to pick him up, and then he looked at the young master who was a teenager next to him.

Suddenly I understood.

Can this family, young and old, reach the place of exile?

"Yes, take it."

The yamen runners had a very bad attitude. Shen Zhiyong was a little dissatisfied and was stopped by Shen Jinyao.

"Thank you, yamen runner."

Shen Zhiyong clenched his fists and turned his head away, reluctant to speak.

"Thank you, yamen runner brother."

The person who spoke was Shen Zhixin behind him, the fourth son of the Shen family and Shen Jinyao's biological brother.

The bailiff snorted and said, "You still think you're a young master, haha."

Shen Zhixin took the household registration and gave it to Mrs. Shen.

Old Madam Shen saw the three children's behavior clearly, but she didn't say anything.

Walking out of the city gate, under the scorching sun, more than twenty people walked along the official road.

Shen Tingyao pounded her sore legs.

They were getting farther and farther away from the city gate.

She said dissatisfiedly: "Madam, are we really going to some state on foot like this?"

Aunt Yun also said: "Yes, madam, can't we rent a carriage?"

Madam Shen exhaled and said, "I want a carriage too. Can you tell me where to get one?"

Shen Tingyao curled her lips and said nothing, and Aunt Yun also lowered her head.

Shen Jinyao whispered at this time: "Everyone, please walk faster. There is a carriage I arranged ahead."

Shen Tingyao: "Wow, really? Jinyao?"

Shen Jinyao: "If you want to die quickly, speak louder!"

Shen Jinyao scolded harshly, and Shen Tingyao was a little dissatisfied. She noticed Mrs. Shen's gaze, but didn't say anything.

Shen Zhiyong asked in disbelief, "Really, big sister?"

"Dongmei is just ahead. If you walk faster, you can find her."

After listening to this, several children walked from the back of the team to the front.

The eldest lady looked at the leisurely Shen Jinyao and asked, "Jin'er, you deceived them, didn't you?"

Shen Jinyao smiled and said, "Aunt, I'm telling the truth."

Then she said to Old Lady Shen, "Grandma, when there was a commotion this morning, I thought something might happen, so I took all the silver and money in the house with me."

She met her grandmother's wise gaze and said, "It's a good thing they didn't search me."

After hearing this, Aunt Yun felt a little regretful: "If I had known earlier, I would have taken all the money with me."

The third lady said, "Jin'er is smart."

Old Madam Shen patted Shen Jinyao's hand and said nothing more, but walked forward firmly.

By the time Mrs. Shen and others saw the carriage, it was already full of people.

Dongmei stood aside, next to two large and ordinary carriages.

Dongmei saw Shen Jinyao and hurried forward.

"Miss."

"Dongmei, well done."

The ladies looked at the carriage in front of them and felt relieved.

A carriage is always better than walking.

Although they didn't know where Quzhou was, it would take at least a month to get there.

The young masters and young ladies who had just arrived had already gotten into the carriage.

Standing outside the carriage were the third son Shen Zhixue and the fifth son Shen Zhiye.

There is also the fourth young master Shen Zhixin who has shown his face.

Shen Jinyao was a little angry.

These kids are really spoiled.

Not only Shen Jinyao, but also Old Madam Shen and the three ladies looked unhappy.

"You all come out!"
