Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 111 I Can Exchange With You
No one answered.

The entire Shen residence was so quiet that only the wind was heard.

After a while, I heard footsteps coming, and then the sound of the door bolt being pulled down. As soon as the door opened, Shang Ruyi immediately went forward: "Uncle——"

Before finishing speaking, she stopped again.

The person who came to open the door was Uncle Chen, the steward of the mansion.

The old man was much more haggard than before, with tears still on his face. When he saw Shang Ruyi, he immediately burst into tears again: "Miss Ruyi, you, you are here."

Shang Ruyi hurriedly said, "Uncle Chen, where's my uncle? And where's my aunt?"

Chen Bodao: "Miss, you already know."

"Well, where are they?"

"They're all gone."

"what?!"

Shang Ruyi was going to go in, but she stopped immediately upon hearing this, and looked at Uncle Chen dumbfounded, while Yu Wenye also followed closely, and said in a deep voice, "Master Shen and Mrs. Shen have been—"

Uncle Chen nodded and said in a trembling voice: "What happened yesterday, the officers and soldiers escorted our master away without even packing 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 there was no 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, it was obviously much calmer, and he said: "I heard that the emperor's order is to exile Mr. Shen alone, and everyone in the family will not be implicated. , why is Mrs. Shen still—"

Mentioning this, Shang Ruyi remembered that just now Wang Shaoji also mentioned that so many people were exiled this time, only Shen Shiyan was convicted alone, and no relatives were affected.

If not, how could she stay out of it and not know everything until today?
When Uncle Chen mentioned this, he was even more distraught: "It is true that we are not involved, but Madam—how can she have the heart to let the master suffer alone, and she will follow whatever she says."

"what?"

"So, she packed up a few clothes, took some things and followed."

"..."

"Before we left, we told us to stay at home and not tell the lady. If the lady knows, let us tell the lady, don't worry, she will take good care of the master."

Shang Ruyi's tears had burst out like a bank.

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

Shang Ruyi cried, "Why did you tell me now!"

Uncle Chen also burst into tears, and said: "Miss, don't be too sad, Madam, all arrangements have been made before Madam leaves, and the rest of the family will be dismissed, leaving the old man and Gao Feng as caretakers. If you are worried about us, just live a good life with my uncle."

Shang Ruyi cried almost out of breath.

The best people in this world for her are Shen Shiyan and his wife. They are her only relatives. Now they are exiled in Lingnan, which is a barren land, not to mention how much suffering they will suffer along the way.

How can she "live a good life" when her uncle and aunt are tortured by such a fate?

By the time they left Shen's house and returned to Yuwen's house, the sky had already darkened.

Along the way, Shang Ruyi didn't cry anymore, but she didn't say a single word either, her whole body was silent, like a clay sculpture whose soul had been taken away, was brought back to the room by Yu Wenye, and just stood numbly in the middle of the room .

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

It's a pity that he wasted too much yesterday on Princess Crescent and didn't have time to pay attention to the changes in the court, but the emperor dismissed so many officials at once, which will definitely have a huge impact on the court and even among the people, and, in the end, The important thing is that the Pei family——

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

So, he turned around and walked out, preparing to have someone go to Pei's house to check on the situation.

But just when he was about to turn around and leave, Shang Ruyi's hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind him——

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

This voice trembled in numbness, like a cry for help from a person on the verge of despair. Hearing this, Yu Wenye immediately stopped, stopped, and turned to look at her.

The room hadn't had time to light the lamp yet, under the dim light, Shang Ruyi stood there, lifeless.

He subconsciously frowned.

Although Shang Ruyi hadn't finished speaking, he seemed to already know what she was going to say.

I saw Shang Ruyi's face was as pale as paper, and when she raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes seemed to be covered with frost, not because of coldness, but because she no longer had any sense or heat, she said word by word: "I, I want to ask you How many people do you need?"

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 few words almost numbly, as if he didn't realize how outrageous what he said, 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 while, said: "I want to save them."

"..."

She didn't have more energy to listen to his words and judge the so-called "result".

She just needs to save them.

Exile, these two words that sound light and fluffy, are piled up with the bones of countless exiled people. Not to mention the high mountains and long roads in Lingnan, and the harsh environment, the lives of those exiled there are worse than death. There are only a few who can reach Lingnan, and most of the exiled people are tortured to death on the way!

Uncle and aunt are her most important relatives, she must save them!
Yu Wenye said: "Do you think I will promise you to do such a rebellious thing?"

"..."

Shang Ruyi stared at him silently for a long time, then suddenly said, "I can exchange with you."

"what?"

Yu Wenye frowned: "What do you want 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, and looked up into his eyes: "From now on, if you want to talk to me again I will never obstruct the meeting of Princess Crescent."

"..."

"Not only do I not obstruct, but as long as you need it, I will cover it up for you, 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. For a moment, her neck seemed to be strangled by someone, and she swallowed her words abruptly.

And under the dim light, Yu Wenye squinted his eyes slightly, looking at her coldly.

"What did you say?"
