No one answered.

The entire Shen Mansion was so quiet that only the sound of the wind remained.

After a while, I heard a footstep coming, and then the sound of the bolt being pulled down, and as soon as the door opened, Shang Ruyi immediately stepped forward: "Uncle-"

Before she could finish speaking, she stopped again.

The one who came to open the door was Uncle Chen, the steward of the house.

The old man was much haggard than before, and there were still tears on his face, and as soon as he saw Shang Ruyi, he immediately burst into tears again: "Miss Ruyi, you, you are here." ”

Shang Ruyi hurriedly said, "Uncle Chen, where is my uncle?" And what about my aunt? ”

Chen Bodao: "Miss, you know everything. ”

"Well, what about them?"

"They're all gone."

"What?!"

Shang Ruyi was about to go inside, but when he heard this, he immediately stopped, and looked at Uncle Chen in a daze, and Yu Wenye also followed closely, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Shen and Mrs. Shen have been-"

Chen Bo nodded and said in a trembling voice: "What happened yesterday, the officers and soldiers escorted our master away, and they didn't even pack a few clothes. ”

Shang Ruyi's heart fell into the ice cave in an instant.

It turned out to be true, Shen Shiyan had really been exiled.

Moreover, it was so fast that I didn't even have time to say a word.

Yu Wenye on the side was still very calm, and looked at the situation in the mansion inside the gate, which was obviously much colder, and he said: "I heard that the emperor's will is to exile Lord Shen alone, and no one in the family is implicated, why is Mrs. Shen still-"

mentioned this, Shang Ruyi remembered, just now Wang Shaoji also mentioned that this time so many people were exiled, only Shen Shiyan was convicted alone, and his relatives were not affected.

If it weren't for that, how could she have stayed out of it and didn't know everything until today?

When Uncle Chen mentioned this, he was even more grief-stricken: "It's true that we people are not implicated, but Mrs. She-where can she bear to let the master suffer alone, and she will follow whatever she says." “

"Huh?"

"So, she packed up a few clothes, brought some things and went along."

“……”

"Before leaving, he told us to keep our house and not tell Miss. If Miss knows, let us tell Miss that don't worry, she will take care of the master. ”

Shang Ruyi's tears had already poured out like a broken embankment.

Her aunt Yu is usually a very playful and unreliable elder, but at this time, regardless of the mountains and rivers, regardless of life and death, she must follow her uncle and never abandon him, and even in order not to affect herself, she didn't even tell herself.

Shang Ruyi cried: "Why only tell me now!" ”

Uncle Chen also burst into tears and said: "Miss, Miss, don't be too sad, the arrangements are all made before the lady leaves, the rest of the family is dismissed, leaving the old man and Gao Feng and a few of them to take care of the home, Miss usually doesn't have to worry about us, just, just live a good life with my uncle." ”

Shang Ruyi cried so much that he almost couldn't breathe.

The best for her in this world is Shen Shiyan and his wife, they are her only relatives, and now they are exiled to Lingnan, which is a wild place, not to mention that they don't know how much suffering they have to endure along the way.

Her uncle and aunt were tortured by such a fate, how could she "live a good life"?

By the time they left the Shen family and returned to Yuwen's house, it was already dark.

Along the way, Shang Ruyi didn't cry again, but he didn't say a word again, the whole person was silent, like a clay sculpture that had been robbed of his soul, and was taken back to the room by Yu Wenye, and he only stood numbly in the center of the room.

Yu Wenye glanced at her and wanted to say something, but at this time, there were still too many things for him to deal with.

It's a pity that he spent too much energy yesterday because of the matter of Princess Crescent, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the changes in the court, but the emperor dismissed so many officials at one time, which will definitely cause a huge impact in the court and even among the people, and the most important thing is the Pei family-

The friendship between the two families is deep, no matter what, he also has to take care of Pei Xingyuan's situation.

So, he turned around and walked out, preparing to let someone go to Pei's house to investigate the situation.

But just as he was about to turn around and leave, Shang Ruyi's low voice suddenly sounded behind him-

"I, I have something to ask of you."

This voice, numbness with a slight tremor, like a person's cry for help on the verge of despair, Yu Wenye heard this, immediately paused, stopped, and turned to look at her.

Before the lights could be lit in the room, under the dim light, Shang Ruyi stood there, without a little vitality.

He subconsciously frowned.

Although Shang Ruyi's words were not finished yet, he seemed to already know what she was going to say.

I saw that Shang Ruyi's face was as white as paper, and when she raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes seemed to be condensed with frost, not cold, but no longer sensing and heat, she said word by word: "I, I want to ask you how many people you want." ”

Yu Wenye said in a deep voice: "What are you going to do?" ”

Shang Ruyi said: "I'm going to save them." ”

“……”

Sure enough, as expected.

Yu Wenye watched her finish these words almost numbly, as if he didn't realize how rebellious he was saying, he took a deep breath and said, "You know what the result is when you do this?" ”

Shang Ruyi looked at him, and after a long while, he said, "I want to save them." ”

“……”

She didn't have the strength to listen to him and judge the so-called "results".

She just had to save them.

Exile, these two words are light, but the bones of countless exiled people are piled up, not to mention that the mountains of Lingnan are far away, the environment is bad, and the people who are exiled there are worse than dead, in fact, only a few can reach Lingnan, and most of the exiled people were tortured to death on the road!

Uncle and aunt are her most important relatives, and she must save them!

Yu Wenye said: "Do you think I will promise you to do such a rebellious thing? ”

“……”

Shang Ruyi looked at him silently for a long time, and suddenly said, "I, I can exchange with you." ”

"What?"

Yu Wenye frowned: "What are you going to exchange with me?" ”

When Shang Ruyi spoke, her voice trembled for some reason, and she even walked in front of him with a bit of expectation and flattery, looking up into his eyes: "From now on, if you want to meet with Princess Crescent Moon again, I will never stop you." ”

“……”

"Not only will I not obstruct you, as long as you need it, I will help you cover it up, and I will never let anyone find out about your relationship."

“……”

"How? As long as you promise—"

Before she finished speaking, she felt a sudden strong sense of oppression attack, and in an instant, her neck seemed to be choked, and the words behind her were swallowed back.

In the dim light, I saw Yu Wenye squinting his eyes slightly, looking at her coldly.

"What did you say?"
