Chapter 16 Exile
After they changed their clothes, the escorts brought ropes and tied one of their feet starting from the front. There were two types of exile, one was the exile of criminals, and the other was the exile of common people. The former not only had to be put in shackles, but the main criminal also had to have words tattooed on his face. When they arrived at the place of exile, they could not be free and had to do hard labor in the exile camp until they died.

The latter only need to tie one foot to ensure that they will not run away. After arriving at the place of exile, the government will give them a place to settle down, and from then on, they will become local residents.

Fortunately, the Wei family belongs to the second type, which is the exiled commoners.

"Woo woo woo..."

Soon, everyone was tied up into groups of ten like dumplings, and they truly realized that they were about to be exiled. The women sobbed one after another, and the men were like defeated roosters, all of them dejected.

"Set off."

Zhao Shan waved his hand, and dozens of escorts drove everyone out of the palace.

"The Prince of Weiyang's Mansion is a loyal minister, why was he exiled?"

"It's not just the Prince of Weiyang's Mansion. I heard that the Prime Minister's Mansion was also exiled."

"Your Majesty, have you made a mistake? The old prince and the prince have all died on the battlefield for generations, and the current prince was also poisoned and retired on the battlefield. How could they possibly rebel?"

"Shh, stop talking. If someone hears you, do you still want to live?"

"How could the emperor be wrong? Who knows what they are like behind the scenes..."

As soon as the team left the palace, a large number of people gathered to watch. Some people couldn't understand why the Weiyang King, who had been guarding the border for many years and had made great achievements in battle, would rebel. Some people firmly believed in the imperial power and questioned their character. When had the Wei family ever been watched like this?
Everyone lowered their heads and blushed. The only one who was not affected was probably Shen Xiangwan, who was holding the cub in one hand. While walking, she kept looking at the surrounding buildings. It didn't feel like exile, but more like a journey. It was so free.

"Old Zhao, here." After finally arriving at the city gate, he saw several escorts waving at Zhao Shan from afar. Behind them were dozens to hundreds of people, all with one foot tied. It was obvious that they were also going to be exiled.

"so many people?"

Zhao Shan trotted up to them and frowned impatiently. Hundreds of people were not a small number.

"You know that the Prime Minister's residence has also been confiscated. They will all be exiled to Chenzhou. This trip will be difficult for you."

One of the escorts reached out and patted him on the shoulder as he spoke. The people behind them included both the Shen family and the Wei family branch, totaling several hundred.

"What on earth did you do?!"

When they approached, the people from the Wei family branch immediately became excited, and each of them glared at them, wishing they could stare a bloody hole in their bodies.

"···"

Faced with the questioning about the division of the family, the old lady and everyone in the second and third rooms could not help but shrink their necks. Zhao Yuping and her son opened their mouths several times but could not utter a word. If possible, they would also like to know what they had done and why they were suddenly confiscated and exiled?
Compared to them, Shen Xiangwan seemed much more relaxed, as if it had nothing to do with him, but...
"Shen Xiangwan?!"

In the crowd on the other side, the girl with red eyes from crying glared at her and screamed, and the men and women with her also looked at her with disgust and aversion.
