Quick Transmigration: After the Backup Love Awakens, He Sacrifices the Official Partner to the Heave

The rain has stopped!

After the storm subsided, only a mess remained.

As soon as the rain stopped, the officials summoned everyone down the mountain.

Over the course of those five days, quite a few people died one after another. Some died from illness and fever, some fell off cliffs while searching for food, and some starved to death. In total, about fifteen people died.

These fifteen people were thus left to rot in the wilderness.

Because it had just rained, the path down the mountain was very slippery, so they had to walk carefully and slowly. It took the group two whole hours to finally reach the bottom of the mountain.

The torrential rain damaged the villages at the foot of the mountain. From a distance, the scene of devastation was astonishing, highlighting the horror of natural disasters!

The leading official pretended not to see anything, ignored the people's pleas, and led the group toward Lingnan.

After traveling at various stops for about three months, the group finally arrived in Lingnan.

During the journey, they also encountered a group of mountain bandits.

The bandits outnumbered the government troops by five to one. They robbed the group of their money and food, and even kidnapped several men.

Because Jiang Zui had Qi Chen dress up deliberately beforehand, the bandits didn't notice Qi Chen.

However, for some reason, Jiang Li and Zhao Xingyuan took the opportunity to dress up during their exile. Because of their handsome appearance, they were kidnapped by bandits.

Jiang Zhou was furious to see his beloved and younger brother kidnapped and risked his life to rescue them from the bandits' den.

But by the time they were saved, it was too late.

Jiang Li had been violated by the bandits; there wasn't a single unharmed spot on his body, and he had no cover whatsoever. His swollen and numb eyes revealed just how terrible his ordeal had been.

Zhao Xingyuan was relatively lucky; Jiang Zhou arrived at just the right time.

He happened to run into them, and the thief had malicious intentions towards him.

In a fit of rage, Jiang Zhou killed the bandits and then gently comforted the weeping Zhao Xingyuan.

Because of this, the best time to save Jiang Li was missed.

Because of this incident, Jiang Li hated Zhao Xingyuan and Jiang Zhou.

He is Jiang Zhou's younger brother, yet he is not Jiang Zhou's first choice.

Jiang Zhou chose to save an outsider first, then save himself.

This one incident alone made Jiang Li hold a grudge.

Jiang Zhou's heroic rescue finally won over his beloved Zhao Xingyuan.

The two finally got together.

Jiang Zhou was so engrossed in the blissful life with his kind-hearted lover that he failed to notice the hatred in his younger brother Jiang Li's eyes.

The return of Jiang Li and Zhao Xingyuan caused quite a stir in the group, with many assuming that the two had been to a bandit's den and were no longer clean.

Therefore, some officers, soldiers, and even prisoners actually tried to seduce the two of them.

But seeing Jiang Zhou's protection of Zhao Xingyuan, everyone gave up their thoughts and turned their attention to Jiang Li.

One evening, Jiang Li was pulled into a grove of trees by a tall and imposing squad leader.

He received preferential treatment from the officers and soldiers the next day.

From that day on, Jiang Li disregarded his reputation, only wanting to live a good life. He became self-destructive and casually seduced officers and soldiers in the army who were good to him.

He'd do anything as long as it offered him benefits.

Gradually, everyone in the group came to know about Jiang Li's unrestrained and unconventional behavior.

Seeing her son in such a wretched state, Liu Yu was both anxious and distressed. She tried to dissuade him several times, but to no avail.

Actually, Liu Yu was unhappy with Jiang Zhou's decision to save Zhao Xingyuan first, but Jiang Zhou liked it.

At this moment, Jiang Zhou is all she can rely on.

Although he couldn't openly criticize Zhao Xingyuan, he secretly caused her a lot of trouble.

Zhao Xingyuan wasn't one to be trifled with, so she tattled on him to Jiang Zhou.

After hearing this, Jiang Zhou had a big argument with Liu Yu.

Jiang Hongsheng has concubines and other children, so it's even less likely that he would focus his attention on him.

And so, the relationships among the Jiang family members fell apart.

Jiang Li resented Jiang Zhou's behavior of disregarding his younger brother's life for his husband. Liu Yu wavered between Jiang Zhou and Jiang Li. Jiang Zhou was annoyed by his mother's attitude towards his sweetheart.

On the other hand, after Jiang Zui completely severed ties with the Jiang family, he successfully integrated into the Qi family.

Every time he eats, sleeps, or rests, Jiang Zui always manages to share something good.

Along the way, thanks to the things Jiang Zui brought out, the Qi family, including Qi Chen, did not feel very tired.

Summer turned into autumn, and the journey took us from the capital to Lingnan, thousands of miles away. But the further we went into Lingnan, the hotter it got. Even though it was already autumn, the sun was still high in the sky.

It wasn't until I arrived in Lingnan that I learned that Lingnan is hot all year round and has no autumn or winter seasons, only spring and summer.

Lingnan is located on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty, with another country across the way. The two countries are separated by a large river with turbulent waters, and there is no bridge connecting the two countries.

However, just in case, troops were still stationed here.

Convicts like Jiang Zui, who were exiled here, were tasked with building roads, constructing dikes, or mining.

In Lingnan, there was a town specifically for resettling exiled criminals, called Sin Slave Village.

There were more than two hundred people when they came, but less than half of them made it safely to Lingnan.

After settling Jiang Zui and the others in, the officials hurriedly left.

They had no desire to linger even a moment longer in a remote, desolate place like Lingnan, a place teeming with criminals.

They registered each household one by one, then received their assigned houses, distributed supplies, and received tasks, and then began working the next day.

Houses vary in quality and are allocated arbitrarily by the town mayor; however, they can be purchased with silver.

Jiang Zhou had used up all the loose silver he had on him along the way, and the only silver notes he had left were stolen by bandits.

The Jiang family had no money, so they had no choice but to move into the house assigned to them by the town mayor.

The Jiang family was large, and they felt cramped in their small house. Jiang Zhou didn't even have a room to himself and lived with his younger brother Jiang Xuan. Meanwhile, Jiang Hongsheng's concubine Zhang Yuansi and his servant shared a room.

Jiang Li and Liu Yu lived together, while only Jiang Hongsheng had his own room.

The Zhao family was no exception; Zhao Xingyuan slept with her younger brother.

Jiang Zui initially considered whether she should live with the Qi family, so that Qi Chen would have someone to accompany her when she went out.

But then I thought about it, and he had too many secrets, plus the two of them were having a lot of fun, so it wasn't really appropriate for him to live with someone else.

Jiang Zui has plenty of money.

They were very generous; they bought a large house, which only housed Jiang Zui and Qi Chen.

Jiang Zui was also generous and spent money to buy a house for the Qi family.

Jiang Zui's extravagance left a deep impression on the town mayor and gave everyone a new understanding of him.

Jiang Zui had already become famous among the soldiers escorting prisoners because of the rainstorm incident. Later, his ability to find food and other things made everyone like him.

Now, however, he is being questioned by many people because of his house purchase.
