When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 101 101 Sir, the teacup in your hand is crushed
At that time, Ye An, who was sitting in front of the large carriage on his way back to the palace after delivering the compensation silver, suddenly had his eyes brightened. He turned his head and said to his brother Ye Ping, who was driving the carriage beside him, with a somewhat excited tone: "I remember who that familiar face of the little girl looks like."
Ye Ping, who was almost driven into the ditch by his stupid brother, raised his hand and slapped him on the head, scolding: "You have been with me for so many years, but you are still so unstable. I think you deserve to be punished."
Xiao Junlin, who was sitting in the carriage, also felt that Ye An should be sent back to the place where the Shadow Guards were trained for retraining.
"Brother, it's true." Ye An was hit by his brother, but he was not angry. He continued: "I saw the childish face of that little girl today. Whether it was the 50% or 60% resemblance or the facial features, she really looked like our master."
"Crack." The sound of a cup being crushed.
"Don't mention the child." Ye Ping: "Didn't you hear me?"
The man sitting in the carriage narrowed his sharp phoenix eyes, threw away the cracked teacup in his hand, and then a hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
He had never done that kind of thing with a woman, and he had lost his fertility after being poisoned. What was he expecting?
----
It was late July, when the sun was at its hottest at noon.
Everyone in the exile team was sweating profusely, but fortunately they had just set out on the journey and their water bags were full of water.
"Master, drink some water."
Gu Hua took the water bag handed to her by Chunlan and gulped down a few gulps. As a person with ice-related abilities, she was not afraid of not being able to find water after drinking, and then making everyone thirsty.
"Ah...ah, stop fighting, stop fighting, let's go, let's go now."
However, in such weather, even if there was water to drink, there were prisoners who deliberately acted lazy and delayed the progress of the exile team, or who really could not walk and fell behind, and they were whipped by the escorting bailiffs.
"You are a bunch of bastards, you think you are nobles, but now you are exiled prisoners.
"Everyone, be obedient and walk carefully. If anyone falls behind, I will whip you mercilessly."
Gu Hua looked back and saw that among the people who had fallen behind and been beaten, there was unexpectedly his uncle's second son Chen Ze, and the mother and daughter of the Ye family who had been whipped and quickly ran to his uncle and hid behind him.
Gu Hua frowned, thought for a moment, and then walked over.
Seeing his uncle, who was originally the Minister of Personnel, lowering his posture and pleading with the bailiff who beat his younger son, Gu Hua casually threw a silver ingot to him.
The yamen runner, who was originally furious, caught the phone subconsciously after seeing a flash of silver light in front of his eyes. "Fuck, who dares to smash it..."
When he saw what was in his hand, his expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book. He looked at Gu Hua who was throwing the silver and smiled, "You are sensible."
Then they were very sensible and just let go of the Chen family mother and son who were holding them back.
Gu Hua understood that those yamen runners were shouting for beating and killing just to gain some benefits.
If the uncle didn't give the money, the mother and her two children would be killed, and the yamen runners would not let them go. Even for the sake of the uncle and his cousin Chen Ling who helped him carry the child, Gu Hua couldn't just sit there and do nothing.
When Ye and Chen Ze, mother and son, saw Gu Hua casually throwing out ten taels of silver, a hint of hatred and greed flashed in their eyes.
...but they did not show the gratitude they should have towards Gu Hua for saving them.
Gu Hua caught a glimpse of the mother and her two children, who still disliked her, not because of her action. So they just let her shoulder carry them indifferently.
Seeing the prisoners who didn't pay and were dragging their feet being beaten by the escorting officers, the uncle and Chen Ling looked at Gu Hua who helped with gratitude. "Thank you, cousin. My father and I were taken directly from the government office to exile here. We have..." Chen Ling lowered his head shyly and embarrassedly.
Even if he didn't say it, Gu Hua could see that his uncle and cousin Chen Ling were short of money. Otherwise, how could they not understand what was going on here after both of them had been in officialdom for so many years?
Gu Hua looked at Ye's mother and daughter and saw their flickering eyes.
He curled his lips into a smile, realizing that the mother and daughter must have been captured and exiled from the Chen Mansion by the officials, and that they must have some silver or valuables hidden on them.
The reason why she would rather be beaten than take it out was that she was afraid that if she didn't come forward to deal with those yamen runners, the mother and daughter would find a way to let her take action.
"Why should I thank her? This is what she deserves." Ye stared at Gu Hua with a dark and unkind look in her eyes and said, "If it weren't for him, our family wouldn't have been implicated and exiled."
"That's right, Dad." Chen Ze touched the place where he was hit, grimaced in pain, and agreed.
Chen Man, the only concubine of the Chen family, walked up to Gu Hua and said softly, "Mother and second brother are too straightforward. Cousin, please don't blame them."
Gu Hua: "Ms. Chen, you must have loved drinking green tea in the past."
"Cousin Gu, why do you say that?"
"Because you drink too much green tea, the tea flavor is too strong."
After saying that, he nodded politely to his uncle and said, "I'll go back to take care of the children. Please ask my aunt and the others to walk faster, so that they won't be beaten by the yamen runners if they delay the process."
Uncle Chen: "Go ahead."
After Gu Hua left, Ye curled her lips and said, "I don't know where these bastards came from, but they are treated as treasures."
"Shut up." Uncle Chen glanced at his wife, who had become so mean to him at some point, and shook his head. In the end, he did not utter a single word of scolding.
When Gu Hua returned, he saw that some people were put in shackles, shackles, and handcuffs by the yamen runners. Only women and some men with lighter crimes were only put in shackles to prevent them from escaping.
However, during the past three years of traveling around the country, Gu Hua had also heard that as long as the exiled prisoners left the capital, and as long as they were not heinous or important criminals, they could have the shackles removed if they were willing to pay money.
And Gu Hua is the kind of person who is willing to spend money.
It just costs money to remove the shackles on everyone's feet, and the earliest we can do so is at night.
The group of people from the Shen family who were following not far behind Gu Hua and the others all looked at the Ye mother and son with disdain, "Mom, why did I feel like that Minister's wife was shouting so loudly on purpose just now?
I just wanted to let those yamen runners notice that Sister Gu had money on her."
Mrs. Shen looked at the faces of her only surviving daughter, Shen Hongling, and her two nieces, which were branded with faint marks, and her eyes flickered.
On that day, based on her intuition, she asked Gu Hua to accompany her and her daughter to be branded as exiled prisoners. Now she saw that the shallow scars should not be very obvious after they heal.
She didn't know how Gu Hua did it, but she knew she made the right bet.
Madam Shen: "Those people are Miss Gu's uncle's family. She knows someone is plotting against her, but you didn't notice that there are three people looking for trouble besides the mother and son.
Miss Gu's uncle and cousin really love her."
