Before confiscating their property, they emptied the imperial city and exiled them!

Just as they were about to set off, Lin Xiaoxiao noticed that Yu Tan was not there.

Before she could ask, Song Wenjing told her that Yu Tan had been taken away by Ying Yi and the others.

There were only two carriages, not enough to seat so many people.

In addition, an unpleasant incident occurred between Mu Shilan and Lin Xiaoxiao.

After hearing that the carriage was provided by Lin Xiaoxiao, she became even more reluctant to get in.

This was exactly what Lin Xiaoxiao wanted; she hadn't originally planned to be so generous.

Gu Xingzhi naturally followed Mu Shilan.

Mu Qingwan gave her mother a deep look, and when she realized that her mother didn't show her any concern, she realized that her mother hadn't given her a single caring glance.

Somewhat disappointed, they boarded the carriage.

Su noticed that something was wrong with her and took Mu Qingwan's hand to comfort her.

Chen, Liu, Su, Song Wanqing, and Mu Qingwan rode in the same carriage as before.

Lin Xiaoxiao, Song Wanning, and Song Yetong rode in the larger carriage they had ridden in before.

Noticing how crowded their carriage was, Mu Qingwan took the initiative to walk over to Lin Xiaoxiao.

They asked if they could sit in their carriage.

Song Wanning and Song Yetong dared not speak casually, and both looked at Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Sure, they're just too obsessed with Dou Dizhu (a card game), they keep dragging me to play."

Your arrival is perfect; you can take over for me.

Although Mu Qingwan didn't know what Dou Dizhu was, she understood that Lin Xiaoxiao had agreed to let her ride in the car.

I was overjoyed.

As they walked down the street, the people there learned of Prince Duan's ordeal.

Although Prince Duan was exiled, the people still had doubts.

The people stood on both sides of the road, watching them leave.

Although no one spoke, Prince Duan understood what the people meant.

Every step he took as he walked out of Yuheng City seemed incredibly heavy.

Song Huai'an understood his current feelings, but he simply stayed by his side.

They walked silently without saying a word!

After leaving Yuheng City, Mu Qiyang looked up and took one last look at the plaque on the city gate.

With slightly red eyes, she turned and left.

Mu Shilan had never suffered much hardship before, and she couldn't bear it for long after she left.

They hadn't been chained by Lu Hu yet, but even so, Mu Shilan couldn't help but complain.

"We've walked for so long, why can't we rest yet?"

Gu Xingzhi glanced at Mu Shilan, whose face was red from the cold, standing next to her.

Feeling both heartbroken and helpless: "This exile has a daily schedule."

Barring unforeseen circumstances, we'll be traveling almost all day long.

Mu Shilan nearly fell over upon hearing this.

In addition, they haven't eaten since last night, so they are now both hungry and exhausted.

She looked at Gu Xingzhi with a broken heart and said in a coquettish tone, "Aunt, I'm so tired. Let's get a carriage too."

Gu Xingzhi glanced at the carriage behind her and said with equal difficulty, "We had no valuables on us when we were kicked out."

Besides, even if we had money now, we have nowhere to buy a carriage.

Gu Xingzhi enjoys practicing martial arts and doesn't wear any jewelry.

But Mu Shilan is different.

She suddenly remembered the hairpin on her body, and in surprise, pulled it out.

He said to Gu Xingzhi, "We have money, we have money. Why don't you go and talk to the Song family, Aunt, and ask them to spare us a carriage!"

For the first time, Gu Xingzhi did not give in to Mu Shilan's demands.

Even if it kills her, Gu Xingzhi would never do it if asked to plead with Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Today is the first day of our journey. You'll get used to it!"

After Gu Xingzhi finished speaking, she took her hand and helped her continue on her way.

Mu Shilan was filled with regret. If she had known that traveling would be so tiring, she would have shamelessly taken the carriage in the first place.

But it's too late to regret it now, when he thought of Mu Qingwan sitting comfortably in a carriage.

I instantly felt resentful.

She deliberately spoke in a pretentious tone next to Gu Xingzhi, saying, "Aunt is right, we can't give in to that girl."

But now Qingwan is sitting in her carriage. I wonder what that girl will think of us!

As Mu Shilan spoke, she observed her aunt's expression, and when she saw her aunt's face darken.

They knew their scheme had succeeded.

She released Mu Shilan's hand and slowed down to walk to Lin Xiaoxiao's carriage.

He coughed twice, then gathered his thoughts.

He called out to Mu Qingwan inside the carriage, "Wan'er, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Mu Qingwan watched them playing cards with great enthusiasm from inside the carriage.

Suddenly hearing my mother's voice filled me with joy.

It seems that my mother still cares about me.

It must have been because the incident happened so suddenly that she didn't notice herself.

Unable to contain her excitement, Mu Qingwan got off the carriage and walked up to Gu Xingzhi.

She obediently called out "Mother," then looked at her with a smile on her face.

Gu Xingzhi glanced at Mu Qingwan and said indifferently, "Don't ride in their carriage anymore for the rest of the journey."

Mu Qingwan was puzzled, thinking that her mother was afraid of troubling her uncle's family.

She hurriedly explained, "Mother, don't worry, Xiaoxiao and the others are all very nice people."

Looking at her daughter who was still grinning foolishly, Gu Xingzhi said impatiently, "Don't you have legs or feet?"

"Can't you travel on your own? Shilan is even younger than you, but she insisted on traveling on her own, didn't she?"

"But why not ride in a carriage?"

"Is that carriage yours?"

"Didn't I tell you? They don't mind."

Gu Xingzhi became a little impatient: "I've already told you, you're not allowed to sit, and that means you're not allowed to sit."

Seeing her mother so angry, Mu Qingwan immediately promised, "Okay, I understand, I'll listen to you, Mother!"

Gu Xingzhi finally calmed down.

He ignored Mu Qingwan and quickly walked to Mu Shilan's side to support her.

Mu Shilan glanced at Mu Qingwan with a defiant look in her eyes.

Seeing this, Mu Qingwan was furious. She stomped her foot and walked unwillingly to Lin Xiaoxiao's carriage.

Upon seeing Mu Qingwan, Song Yetong excitedly exclaimed, "Qingwan, come up here quickly! Xiaoxiao is amazing!"

We were all terrified of her.

Mu Qingwan forced a smile and said awkwardly, "You guys play first, I'm going to check on my mother."

They're probably not used to traveling much on their first day.

Song Yetong nodded: "Alright, go ahead!"

After leaving with a smile, Mu Qingwan quickly walked a few steps to Gu Xingzhi's side.

Seeing her helping Mu Shilan along the way, she asked in confusion, "Is Shilan injured?"

Mu Shilan looked at her with a face full of displeasure: "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you just jealous of my success? I'm just too tired."

Mu Qingwan was taken aback by her shout.

If it's not true, it's not true. Why be so fierce?

She didn't go to see Gu Xingzhi, knowing that her mother wouldn't protect her, especially not in front of Mu Shilan.

Gu Xingzhi coldly replied, "You should also help your cousin a bit; she hasn't suffered much before."

Mu Qingwan felt wronged; who was her daughter after all?

I'm also very tired from traveling.

Mu Qingwan pouted and said unwillingly, "I don't want to, I'm tired too!"

Gu Xingzhi frowned and scolded her in a low voice, "What's wrong with you, child? Why are you so cold-hearted? Is this how an older sister should act?"
