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

The group escorted Eunuch Gao into the main house, and the accompanying guards were also led to other rooms to drink tea.

Shen Jinyao felt someone pulling her sleeve.

She looked back and saw that it was Xiang Hongxuan.

When Xiang Hongxuan saw her turn around, he loosened his sleeves.

He looked at Shen Jinyao and signaled with his eyes.

Shen Jinyao followed Xiang Hongxuan.

The Shen family member walking at the end looked confused.

When did the two of them become so in sync?

If they saw correctly, the two of them just glanced at each other.

One said nothing, the other asked nothing.

They actually ended up together like this.

Shen Zhixue frowned slightly and called out to the people behind him, "Hurry up and catch up."

Xiang Hongxuan and Shen Jinyao stopped only when they reached the courtyard of the main house.

At this time, all the members of the Shen family had gone to the yard of the second house, so there was no one in the yard.

Xiang Hongxuan closed the door.

Although Shen Jinyao was confused, she also knew that Xiang Hongxuan was a careful person.

Although he is a burly general.

"What happened?"

Xiang Hongxuan looked at Shen Jinyao seriously for a few seconds, "What do you think of the emperor's decree?"

Ever since Shen Jinyao met Eunuch Gao, she has been wondering whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for her father and elder brother to return to Beijing.

"I can't tell."

It seemed like this was the first time Xiang Hongxuan heard Shen Jinyao say such frustrating words.

"Why?"

Shen Jinyao was indeed a little frustrated. "I don't really understand the emperor, so there's no way I can guess what he's thinking."

Xiang Hongxuan couldn't bear to see Shen Jinyao like this, so he comforted her, "You haven't seen the emperor, so it's normal that you don't understand."

"I believe that no one in the world can guess the emperor's thoughts."

Shen Jinyao nodded thoughtfully.

"If that's the case, then we can only prepare for each situation."

Xiang Hongxuan nodded, "That's right."

"If Father is going here to overturn the verdict, then our Shen family has nothing to say. We will just wait and obey orders."

"If not..."

Shen Jinyao suddenly thought of the third prince.

Xiang Hongxuan seemed to have guessed what Shen Jinyao was thinking, "Eunuch Gao had already been to the military camp before coming to the Shen family."

He looked into Shen Jinyao's eyes and said, "Your Majesty, let me go back with the Third Prince to report."

Shen Jinyao didn't pay attention to Xiang Hongxuan's look. She was just surprised, "Together?!"

After thinking for a moment, she continued, "It's good to be together. I can take care of you."

"But does this mean that the Emperor regards the Shen family as part of the Third Prince's party?"

Xiang Hongxuan disagrees, saying, "Not necessarily."

In short, they all thought that this trip would be full of dangers.

Shen Jinyao really doesn't like this feeling.

Your own destiny will be influenced by the words of others.

It is true that if the king orders his subject to die, the subject has to die.

but……

"There shouldn't be any danger to his life, right?"

Xiang Hongxuan agreed, "If you want to save the Shen family, Wuhe Village is the best place. There is no need to go to the capital."

Shen Jinyao nodded, she thought so too.

Since that’s the case, she’ll just take it one step at a time, and her worries will be reduced a lot.

Shen Jinyao heard a noise coming from her yard.

She wanted to take a look.

"Thank you, General Xiang, for telling me this. Please help look after my father and elder brother on the way."

After all, in terms of fighting strength, Xiang Hongxuan is the best among them.

Xiang Hongxuan saw that Shen Jinyao wanted to leave.

In fact, he came to see her because he was about to say goodbye to her and wanted to say a few more words to her.

"Then you, take good care of yourself."

At this moment, Xiang Hongxuan couldn't help but think of the magic medicine sent by Murong Wencheng.

Is it just one thing for me to leave a message?

"I'll leave my personal guard with you to use in case of emergency."

Shen Jinyao was naturally happy. Although her martial arts skills were good, the Shen family still needed protection.

Besides, if anything happens, someone will be needed to deliver the message.

only……

Is this kind of thinking a little too...

Xiang Hongxuan saw that Shen Jinyao wanted to refuse, "It must be the Third Prince. I'm leaving now. Take care. If there's anything urgent, you can ask Shadow to notify me."

"Of course, I will inform you immediately of what happens in the palace."

"I am leaving."

Before Shen Jinyao could even open her mouth to refuse, Xiang Hongxuan had already strode to the door.

"Hey... General Xiang, take care of yourself too."

Xiang Hongxuan naturally heard it, but he didn't turn around. He just paused and nodded.

When I opened the gate, I saw a group of people standing at the door.

Leading the group were the Third Prince and Eunuch Gao.

Originally, after the third prince arrived, Eunuch Gao urged the Shen father and son to set off immediately.

Who knew that Xiang Hongxuan could not be found.

The Shen family also discovered that Shen Jinyao was missing.

Only Shen Zhixue kept staring at the gate of the Shen family's main house without saying a word.

Just when everyone was looking for someone, the gate of the Shen family's main house opposite opened.

Everyone naturally saw Shen Jinyao standing not far from Xiang Hongxuan.

Everyone had different expressions on their faces.

Some are shocking, some are unexpected, some are just as expected, and of course there are also gossips.

Xiang Hongxuan closed the door and used his body to block the woman behind him.

He didn't expect there were so many people standing outside.

He was just focused on Shen Jinyao telling him to take care of himself and didn't pay attention to the noise outside.

Eunuch Gao naturally saw it as well. He thought of the emperor's words and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Pretend not to see it.

"Third Prince, now that we are all here, let's set off."

The third prince, who was looking at Xiang Hongxuan with a smile on his face, coughed lightly when he heard this.

"Okay, let's go."

Because of the word "departure", everyone shifted their attention to the few people who were about to set off.

Xiang Hongxuan nodded and closed the door naturally.

Eunuch Gao brought nearly fifty people with him, plus the third prince and his four companions. This group of people walked to the village entrance in a mighty manner, which was really eye-catching.

Shen Maoshan looked at the Shen family, especially Shen Jinyao who was left last.

"Okay, let's all go back."

Shen Congshan nodded.

Shen Mingshan was worried that Eunuch Gao would be unhappy with the Shen family's reaction after receiving the order, so he laughed loudly and said, "Second brother, you can go and report without worry. I and my eldest brother are at home."

Eunuch Gao: "Alright everyone, you are returning to the capital to see the emperor..."

He didn't say anything else, just stopped there.

The Shen family is not without smart people.

"go!"

Xiang Hongxuan, who was riding at the end, looked back and quickly caught up on horseback.

At this time, the villagers of Wuhe Village all felt strange.

Why do the Shen family members seem unhappy?

Doesn’t the emperor want to overturn the Shen family’s verdict?

But then he felt like he had misjudged something, after all, the Shen family was now back home talking and laughing.

Maybe it’s because the journey is too long and my family is worried.

What the villagers didn't know was that everyone in the Shen family's second branch had a gloomy face when they closed the door.
