The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

Song Jiaqi and his men hadn't had a good meal for several days, and they were hungry again yesterday. Since they couldn't catch any prey and had no food, they would definitely come to steal.

Song Zizhou came to her side and said, "Since they stole it, I will take people to find them and get it back now."

Song Yao paused and looked at Song Zizhou, "I'm afraid they've already cooked and eaten it, or hidden it. If we look for it now, we won't find anything."

"What should we do then?" Song Zizhou frowned, very unhappy.

I really didn't expect that Song Jiaqi and his men would actually come and steal their food? How shameless!

"You won't find anything now, let's wait until later." Song Yao walked to the middle of the camp and turned to look at Song Jiaqi and others not far to the right.

Noticing someone's gaze, Song Jiaqi, who was discussing something with Song Liangji, looked towards Song Yao.

Seeing that it was Song Yao, Song Jiaqi showed a provocative smile on his face, and then continued to say to Song Liangji: "Now our team is short of water. If you find a water source later, please fill up some more water."

Song Liangji nodded, "Okay."

Song Zhiyuan asked, "Dad, those soldiers are following Song Yao and the others anyway. Even if we run away, they won't know. Why should we continue to endure this humiliation and hardship?"

Song Jiaqi looked at Song Zhiyuan, "Zhiyuan, you are still too naive."

Song Liangji said, "Zhiyuan, if we escape, those officers and soldiers will definitely send pigeons to inform the emperor, and then the emperor will send troops to arrest us. Do you think we will still be alive then? Besides, your mother and your brothers and sisters are all here. Where can we escape to?"

Song Wenchuan said, "If we continue in exile, the emperor might decide one day that we shouldn't be implicated and grant us a special pardon, or even a general amnesty. If we escape and the emperor finds out, given his personality, he definitely won't pardon us and will definitely send people to hunt us down."

Jiang Chunhua said helplessly: "The world is in turmoil now, with cannibalism everywhere and constant natural and man-made disasters. Even if you escape, you will die."

Song Zhiyuan pursed his lips, "So we can only go to Fengzhou?"

Song Jiaqi nodded and said, "Yes, when we get to Fengzhou, the officers and soldiers won't care about us. If the emperor doesn't pardon us, we'll have to find another way."

The place of exile is extremely cruel and miserable. Being exiled there is undoubtedly a place where they will wait to die. He will not sit there and wait for death.

Song Shi came over and said, "Uncle, Song Yao and the others are gone."

"Let's go too." Song Jiaqi stood up and looked at Song Shi. "You and Zhiyuan go get the things."

"Okay!" Song Shiyi agreed and left with Song Zhiyuan.

Song Zizhou glanced at Song Jiaqi and others following behind, and after stopping the carriage, he got into Song Yao's carriage.

He said, "They're coming up again."

Song Yao leaned against the carriage. She looked at Song Zizhou and said, "Don't worry, it will take a while."

"Okay!" Song Zizhou asked the carriage to stop and he got out.

Song Yuanbai said, "Ayao, why aren't you anxious?"

Song Yao looked at Song Yuanbai opposite her, and then told him about Song Jiaqi calling people to steal food last night.

Song Yuanbo, Su Zhen and others were all shocked when they heard what Song Yao said. No one expected that Song Jiaqi would actually ask people to steal things?

E Yu said, "Then why don't you ask them to return it?"

Song He said, "That's food. If they steal it, what will we do? There are so many of us."

Song Yao pressed her temples. "If it were you, would you admit it? They've been hungry for so long, they would have cooked and eaten it long ago. Even if there were any leftovers, they would have been hidden away. As the saying goes, if you catch an adulterer, you have to catch both of them; if you catch a thief, you have to catch the stolen goods. So we can't confront them directly now."

Su Zhen frowned and said in disbelief, "I really didn't expect them to steal our food. This is too shameless!"

Before, they thought that Song Yao's treatment of them was inappropriate, but now it seems that they really deserved to be treated like that by Song Yao.

Song Yao said, "When people are desperately hungry, they will do anything."

Song Yuanbai was furious. "I respect him as my elder brother, but he actually did such sneaky things. It's really despicable."

Seeing them so indignant, Song Yao laughed twice, "Dad, Mom, why are you angry too? Aren't you very protective of them?"

Song Yuanbai said angrily, "Before, I felt sorry for them and they were my family, so I didn't want you to treat them so cruelly. But now, they actually came to steal our food. It's simply outrageous!"

Song Yao regained her usual seriousness and said, "Dad, Mom, in a world like this, your kindness is useless. Not only is it useless, it will also bring danger to all of us. So, don't be blindly kind to others in the future, understand?"

Su Zhen asked, "Then why did you take in Yuan Jizhong and the others?"

Song Yao said, "You are kind to Song Yuanbai and the others, but they won't appreciate your kindness. So kindness should be used in the right place. Look at Yuan Jizhong and the others. Their attitudes are completely different from Song Yuanbai and the others. It makes sense to take in people like Yuan Jizhong. As for Song Yuanbai and the others, if you help them, they will bite you back. You all know this."

Song Yao's words left Su Zhen unable to refute.

Song Yuanbai didn't say anything else, but when he thought about Song Jiaqi and the others stealing their food, he felt angry and uncomfortable.

E Yu said: "Then how do you plan to confront them?"

Song He said, "If you go and search them, the conflict between us and them will escalate, and then it will be too late to turn back. Sister, you have to think it through."

Su Zhen said, "How about that, A'yao, we don't need the food they stole. Now take good care of the remaining food."

Song Yao knew that Su Zhen said that because she couldn't bear to see her break up with Song Jiaqi and the others, and didn't want to see the situation become irreversible. However, if she didn't come back this time, Song Jiaqi would think she was stupid and would steal her things even more unscrupulously in the future.

Song Yuanbo said helplessly: "Your grandmother and grandfather are still alive. If you do something too drastic, it might even make them feel disappointed."

Song Yao said, "The lost food is nothing. I just want to establish my authority and prevent them from attacking us. Otherwise, if we don't do anything, they will come a few more times in the future. What will we eat? How can we survive and reach Fengzhou?"

E Yu looked at Song Yuanbo and the others, "Dad, Mom, A Yao is right. We can lose the food, but we must teach them how to behave."

"Then... it's up to you." Song Yuanbai didn't say anything else.

Su Zhen didn't say anything else.

The team had been traveling for half an hour. Seeing that the time was almost up, Song Yao asked the servant driving the carriage to stop.

When the leading carriage stopped, the carriages behind also stopped.

Song Yao got off the carriage. She took Song Zizhou, Song Mingxuan, Song Qing and others and went straight to find Song Jiaqi and others.

Yuan Jizhong and the others who had stuck their heads out of the carriage in the middle didn't understand what was going on, so they followed suit and got off.

Song Yao walked up to Song Jiaqi and the others.

Seeing Song Yao bringing so many people over, although Song Jiaqi knew their purpose, he remained calm.

Song Liangji looked at Song Yao expressionlessly, "Song Yao, what do you mean?"
