After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 51 Isn’t Xie Jia Liu Lang more coveted?
Chai Jin knew very little about the past events of the Chai family's ancestors.

Dongbohou Chai Ji didn't know much. The records about the intersection between the Chai family's ancestors and the Xie family were all in the ancestral hall in his hometown in Huaizhou.

The cold wind was blowing, and the father and son leaned together in silence for a long time.

"I spoke to them in the afternoon, and their expressions didn't seem to be conclusive," Chai Jin said.

Chai Ji pondered for a moment, then turned to look in the direction where the Xie family was resting.

"Look again, the rumors about the day the Xie family ransacked their homes are not groundless."

There were slight coughs from time to time in the car behind him. Chai Ji sighed, a little worried about his wife.

"Your mother has a heart disease that the imperial doctor can't do anything about. Heart disease requires heart medicine. My father has sent out many people over the years, but they can't find any trace of your sister. If the Xie family can help... Sigh." Chai Ji couldn't help but sigh when he thought about the regrets that the couple couldn't let go of over the years.

Chai Jin said with relief: "If the Xie family's gods are really that efficacious, father, no matter what the Xie family asks for, I will do my best to fulfill it. I just want to get some news about my sister."

"You have your heart, but you can't force this matter, so take your time. The Xie family is in the ascendant, so naturally they are not afraid of rumors. Now that they are alone, even if they have the ability to communicate with the gods, they probably won't reveal it at will. "

"My son understands."

Prince Chai is not an unsophisticated person.

Among the exiled prisoners, the Xie family and the Chai family were the most numerous, accounting for nearly a quarter of the entire exiled prisoners. The remaining families had seven or eight more people, some of whom were alone.

There are many types of crimes committed, including stealing and robbery, being disrespectful to officials, offending the powerful, cheating and abducting... They are all mixed together, and it is impossible to clarify which of them are the most evil and which are powerless and wronged.

There have been wars in the border areas for years, and the border population has fled, died, and scattered. Countless fields are left uncultivated. Border state officials have written to the court several times, detailing the pros and cons. There are two words between the lines: VIP.

The living conditions in the North are difficult. If the people in the Central Plains were not affected by the disaster and could not survive, who would be willing to leave their homes and move to cold places? Notices were posted in prefectures, counties and villages at all levels from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, but no one responded.

I would rather guard one-third of an acre of land than go to the uncivilized wilderness, where there are thousands of hectares of fertile land.

The words are a bit exaggerated, but they are basically the thoughts in the hearts of the poor farmers in Daliang today.

Therefore, prisoners assigned to various penal colonies have become the main source of population in border areas in recent years.

However, refugees are basically criminals, and their punishments vary. Many of them are treacherous, lazy, greedy, and difficult to control. There are not many people who can settle down to reclaim wasteland or do hard labor in the border areas.

There were even some people who were not afraid of being implicated and even dared to plan to defect to the enemy country and survive in exile. After this happened again and again, the exiled escort officers used stricter control methods during the escort.

Those who are disobedient will either die on the way or die under the sticks of the officials. When they arrive at the Bianzhou government office, it will not be too difficult to inform the officials there.

Prisoners who have been tamed on the road are always more obedient.

In the team, most of the people with some skills know this kind of convention behind the scenes, and every point they can endure is worth it.

For example, the Chai family had people from the same clan in Beijing taking care of things when they set out. When they arrived in Liaozhou, the Chai family also made arrangements there. As long as everyone arrived safely on the way, their life in exile wouldn't be that bad.

The only thing that the Chai family and his son didn't expect was that Princess Zhaoyang had such a narrow-minded heart. She didn't even want to change her family's honor to a peaceful life. Songjiang Town was suddenly attacked, and the Chai family members were also injured.

Others thought that those people were going for Xie Yuchuan and the others, but Chai Jin had sharp eyes and good ears, and he quickly heard the orders passed between them.

Some of them were clearly here to take his life!

If Chai Jin didn't know how to do some martial arts, his life would be at stake on the streets of Songjiang Town.

"The emperor is so arrogant and indulges Princess Zhaoyang, which will definitely lead to disaster." Chai Jin said angrily. Chai Ji nodded, "How can there be a princess mansion that has three or four consorts? It's just..."

Chai Jin looked slightly embarrassed, "I don't know when I provoked her."

Chai Ji looked at his son and couldn't understand.

In terms of talent, his son Chai Jin failed many times and failed in the imperial examinations; in terms of appearance, among all the talented people in the capital, Chai Jin was just an average person.

Chai Ji really couldn't figure out what the Emperor and Princess Zhaoyang liked about their Dongbohou Mansion.

Of Princess Zhaoyang's four consorts, one was tortured to death by her, and now there are three left. No matter what their character is, they all have outstanding looks.

Based on Princess Zhaoyang's preferences, isn't Xie Jia Liu Lang more coveted?

But Chai Ji knew in his heart that when the royal family recruits a son-in-law, no one will be grateful to the family.

The same goes for the Xie family. Judging from the fact that the Xie family has always been married, even if the Xie family's son went to blacksmith and sell tofu, he would never go to Princess Shang.

Especially today’s Holy One.

The Chai family and his son were interested in dealing with the Xie family, but they didn't think of any excuse for the moment, so they walked on the road first and then looked around.

"Go to sleep first."

Not far from the exile camp, the Min family's caravan also set up camp to rest.

Compared with the poor resting environment of the prisoners, the resting conditions of the caravan are much better.

In order not to cause trouble to the escort officers, Min Zhong cleverly asked people to set up tents farther away to avoid the possibility of close contact with prisoners. He also asked people to bring some drinks and food to several adults nearby. Officials are happy and they are safer.

The people in the caravan were divided into three shifts and took turns to rest.

With the official officers nearby, the people in the caravan were not as nervous as before tonight. How could they still have something to rely on in case of an accident?

Min Zhong took Wu Liang into the tent to keep warm. The curtain was opened and the two of them talked around the charcoal fire.

There was hot soup on the charcoal fire. Min Zhong blew on the rim of the bowl and gently drank the soup. Wu Liang held a fire stick in his hand and played with the charcoal fire.

"Master Wu, looking at these officers and soldiers suppressing hundreds of prisoners, can they survive Panlong Ridge?"

Wu Liang took the empty bowl from Manager Min and scooped up a bowl of hot soup himself.

"It's hard to say, but I think the leader, Mr. Xiong, has some aura about him."

Min Zhong also agreed with this, "Master Xiong, at first glance, he is different from the other officers and soldiers."

Wu Liang wanted to say that there were some talented men in the prisoner's team, such as the Xie family, but he saw that Manager Min was not that interested in the Xie family's affairs, so he didn't say much.

In Min Zhong's eyes, no matter how powerful the Xie family is, they are now in shackles. If something happens, they won't be able to escape in time.

The officers with weapons on their bodies are more reassuring.

"Manager Min, what are your plans for tomorrow?"
