Chapter 249: The Cubs Being Treated as Two-legged Sheep on the Road to Exile (2)
cell,
Members of the Wei family were imprisoned separately, male and female.
In fact, the Wei family was just the victims of the change of imperial power.
Old Man Wei didn't want to take sides at first, but there was no choice. He was being targeted. If he didn't take sides, what awaited him and his entire family was death. At least they were only exiled now, so there was still a glimmer of hope.
The Wei family's education is pretty good. In this environment, everyone from the women to the children are afraid and terrified, but they are still forcing themselves to stay calm.
Song Yuxian held her daughter Wei Linglong and huddled obediently in one corner. Huddled with her were Wei Keyuan's two twin sisters, Wei Xianghong and Wei Xiangyu.
Wei Xianghong and Wei Xiangyu are fourteen years old and have not yet been engaged. The two little girls leaned together and looked at the other people in the family nervously.
Song Yuxian looked at the two pretty girls and sighed inwardly.
The fate of these two children was very miserable. They were constantly harassed by yamen runners on the road because of their appearance. If Wei Keyuan and his brothers had not been skilled in martial arts and could have intimidated them to some extent, who knows what would have happened to these two children.
Unfortunately, even so, in the end...
Those evil bandits must not be spared!
After observing the two little girls, Song Yuxian looked at the other female relatives.
The only people imprisoned in this cell were the wife and daughter of the Wei family, a total of twelve people, big and small.
There is another room next to it where the Wei family's concubines are locked up. Most of them are "gifts" sent to the door, and there are also more than a dozen of them.
The men of the Wei family were considered a breath of fresh air in this feudal society. They all loved and respected their original wives, and concubines were mostly just decorations. They also attached great importance to bloodlines, and did not let their concubines give birth to Wei family bloodlines. Therefore, the concubines had no children.
In the previous life's plot, because the confiscation of property came so suddenly and violently, and they set out on the road of exile the next day, the concubines were not dealt with and followed them on the road, causing quite a bit of trouble along the way.
Listening to the crying sounds of the concubines next door, Song Yuxian frowned. It was not a good idea to take these concubines on the road again this time.
Thinking of this, Song Yuxian communicated with her man in her mind.
In the male prison, Wei Keyuan also thought of these concubines.
Naturally, there are two or three concubines who follow their masters sincerely, but most of them are spies and spies sent by others. In this case, let's let them go this time.
Wei Keyuan shared his thoughts with Old Man Wei and Uncle Wei.
In the previous life, the men of the Wei family were so busy worrying about their future affairs that they really ignored the concubines. Later, they remembered that the road to exile had begun and they could no longer release them. With Wei Keyuan's reminder, Old Man Wei immediately went to the jailer in charge and said that he wanted to sign a letter to release the concubines, so he released the concubines and let them fend for themselves.
When the jailer heard Old Man Wei's request, he looked at him in surprise. You know, generally, no family of exiled officials would take the initiative to sign a letter to release their concubines. They all wanted to keep the concubine, and it would be nice to have her as a servant on the road. Unexpectedly, the Wei family actually took the initiative to propose to release her. Didn't they see that the two families next door used four cells just for the concubines?
The jailer clicked his tongue twice and told his boss about Old Man Wei's request. His boss was happy to have an easy journey and reported it happily.
So, the next morning, when the Wei family was standing in the exile team, a dozen charming women walked out of another door. They looked at the Wei family with complicated expressions, saluted the Wei family from a distance, and then hurriedly dispersed to seek survival.
Because of this incident, the Wei family earned a good reputation, and the people watching the excitement on the street whispered to each other and praised the Wei family for their benevolence.
However, this reputation was of no use to the Wei family who were about to embark on the road of exile, so no one took it to heart.
Now there are only twenty-five people left in the Wei family, young and old. Seeing the population reduced by almost half, Wei Keyuan and Song Yuxian breathed a sigh of relief. This is good, very good. It will be much easier to protect them in the future.
The bailiffs escorting the exiles handed over the documents and began to whip everyone to get on the road.
Because the new emperor had just ascended the throne, no one dared to send gifts, so the relatives of the Wei family could only hide in the crowd and wipe their tears while watching the Wei family and their group gradually leave with the large group...
