Chapter 283: Sending Off (1st Shift)
Outside the city gates, a team of officers escorted a group of shackled prisoners.
The autumn wind was cold, but they were thinly dressed, and some of them still had blood stains on their bodies, which was very embarrassing.
"What are you doing? Don't go yet! β
The official shouted loudly, and the whip in his hand was thrown out with a "snap".
A bloody streak appeared on the back of one of the prisoners, staggered a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.
However, he remained silent and endured it.
Seeing this, the others also lowered their heads and quickened their steps, not daring to say a word, for fear that the whip would fall on them in the next second.
Ye Heng is among them.
Seeing this scene, his heart trembled, but he couldn't help but look back.
He survived, and His Highness really still remembers him, but ...... This goes to Tongbei, I don't know how to wander along the way!
From the capital to Tongbei, the road is long, and it will take them three or four months to go into exile like this.
When I arrived in Tongbei, it was the cold winter wax moon, the most bitter cold.
It was hard and tormenting, and just thinking about it, he already felt chills all over his body.
What's more, when he leaves, the family still doesn't know what the situation is...... He didn't even get to see Mingze for the last time!
As soon as he thought of this, Ye Heng's chest tightened and he felt a lot of pain.
"Still watching?"
An official saw Ye Heng's thoughts, and couldn't help but sneer,
"Lord Ye is still thinking that someone can give you a ride, right?"
This "Lord Ye" is really harsh.
However, where did Ye Heng dare to argue with the other party at this time, and a flattering smile appeared on his emaciated and haggard face.
"The poor master misunderstood, I, I didn't ......"
"I advise Master Ye: Don't be delusional! What is the situation over there, I think you know better than us, they can avoid slavery, and it is Your Majesty's extrajudicial grace! Lord Ye should think more about himself! β
Ye Heng's heart sank.
During the time he was detained, his family must have had a hard time, the Gao family couldn't support the faΓ§ade, and Ming Ze was ...... There is only one Shixian left.
But what can she do with a daughter?
Ye Heng saw the other party's impatience, so he had to retract his gaze unwillingly.
It's just that every step out of the way is extremely heavy.
I don't know what arrangements His Highness will make after that......
Suddenly, the sound of mourning and crying could be heard in the distance.
Ye Heng subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from, and his eyelids jumped heavily.
It was a group of spirit deliverers, one person in front of them carrying a banner, four people in the middle carrying the coffin, and a few others, crying and scattering money.
In the bleak autumn wind, this scene is particularly poignant and sad.
Faintly, it seems that someone is crying.
ββ¦β¦ Second young master, you go all the way! β
Ye Heng listened, his heartbeat instantly accelerated, and a strong uneasiness surged up!
He couldn't help but take two quick steps, wanting to get closer and listen carefully, but the official next to him immediately stopped him, raising his eyebrows:
"Bold!"
Looking at the sturdy leather whip, Ye Heng shuddered and immediately stopped, but his eyes involuntarily kept looking ahead.
He listens, he listens......
He recognized the faces of the group, but they were all raw, and he couldn't see anything.
Just when Ye Heng thought that he was thinking wrong, someone next to him whispered:
"Did I hear something, what kind of people are crying for the second young master of the Ye family?"
Ye Heng's hands couldn't help but tremble.
The crying voice became clearer and clearer, and the person in front looked at this side, and after searching for a circle, it finally fell on Ye Heng.
Ye Heng's heart sank heavily!
He looked away almost instinctively, not daring to look at the other party again, for fear that something beyond his control would happen in the next second.
However, it backfired, and I was afraid of what would come.
After that person saw Ye Heng, he suddenly walked quickly towards this side!
The official frowned: "Who are you!" What the hell! β
The man hurriedly stood still and saluted respectfully: "Poor master, the little one is for Second Young Master Ye to send spirits!" β
As soon as the words came out, everyone fell into a dead silence and looked at Ye Heng in unison.
Second Young Master Ye!
Who else besides Ye Mingze!?
The prisoners who were exiled together didn't know the news, but the officials had heard about it, so they immediately looked back at Ye Heng with disgust, and immediately reprimanded: "This is the exiled team!" We still have responsibilities to do, but we can't afford to delay! β
The man hurriedly said: "The poor master misunderstood, where does the little one dare to delay your business?" It's just that on the orders of Second Miss Ye, the funeral for Second Young Master Ye was given. β
The official's tone slowed down a little: "Second Miss Ye? β
This is not something they can afford to offend, so they must be very polite.
The man nodded again and again, and while no one was paying attention, he handed over a heavy purse: "Yes, yes!" Miss Ye Er said, Ye, Ye ...... In the end, the father and son, if they can't even see this last side, it's really pitiful. sent the little one to the funeral for the second young master Ye, so that they could have their last regrets. β
The official checked the weight in his hand, his heart was satisfied, and his attitude became more and more kind.
"In this way, Miss Ye Er is also kind."
"Isn't it? You also know that the Ye family in Fengling Lane has been copied, the soldiers are in chaos, and Miss Ye can't afford to be sick, where can she take care of these? Although the two families had grievances before, Second Miss Ye couldn't bear it, and she still personally paid the money to hold the funeral for Second Young Master Ye......"
Ye Heng's chest rose and fell violently, and finally he couldn't listen to it, and shouted angrily: "What a poisonous woman!" A femme fatale! β
What kindness? What is pitiful?
It's all her machinations!
Aren't they all because of her? In the end, she's a good person!
She did it on purpose...... She clearly did it on purpose!
It's not enough to break up their wives and wives, but now they have to step on their heads and be presumptuous!
What a great humiliation!
Ye Heng was full of indignation, his eyes were red, and the blue tendons on his forehead were bursting up, obviously hating Ye Chutang!
When the man heard this, his face changed slightly.
"Lord Ye, it's not appropriate for you to say this, right? If it weren't for Miss Ye Er's help, your son wouldn't even have a coffin now! She kindly prepared for Second Young Master Ye's funeral, why did she come to you, not only were you not grateful, but you also scolded so ugly? β
Ye Heng gasped violently, barely breathing.
"She! It's all because of herβ"
As he spoke, he was about to step forward and make a move, but he was whipped back by the official.
"Presumptuous! Do you really think you're Lord Ye!? Be honest with me! β
Ye Heng was thrown to the ground, and the coarse-grained stones grazed his palms and knees, but these pains were nothing compared to the humiliating pain in his heart.
The official glanced at him coldly:
"People are right, that Miss Ye Er is kind enough to help, not only are you not grateful, but you are still talking so badly, it's really too much!"
"Don't forget, if she hadn't contributed money and efforts, you wouldn't have been able to send your son on his last journey!"
