MTL - You Are Not In Exile, You Are Clearly Traveling!-Chapter 94 Don't be nervous, we're on our own

Chapter 94 Don’t be nervous, we’re on our own

 The arrows in the sleeves are weapons after all, and since they are prisoners, they actually have weapons. This is hard to explain.

If people like Captain Sun were discovered, they would definitely be punished as planning to attack the government officials and trying to escape.

 Fortunately, Captain Sun is dead, otherwise...

 However, Captain Sun died, but General Pingwei came. You must know that General Pingwei's reputation is known to everyone in Dayue Kingdom.

In addition, his reputation for being upright and resolute and hating evil is known to everyone.

If he knew that his family was a prisoner but was harboring weapons, I'm afraid...

 Hence, Chen Xue and others did not pay attention to General Ping Wei's thanks, and looked absent-minded.

They were thinking about how to hide the arrows on the bandits, or how to throw a few more smoke bombs and tear gas...

However, it seems a bit late.

Those have already arrested the bandits, and even if they hide their arrows, other prisoners around them can also see their actions.

Just when they were anxious, they heard a voice next to their ears, "Master Chen?"

"ah?"

Mr. Chen was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted and looked up at General Ping Wei.

etc!

 How does he know himself?

Mr. Chen was a little confused, and then he looked at General Ping Wei and seemed to feel familiar.

 “Don’t you recognize me, Mr. Chen?”

General Ping Wei quickly reminded, "I am Xie Yunshang, the young man who was rescued from the Sishui River more than ten years ago!"

Having said this, Mr. Chen suddenly remembered that he was not the Minister of Household Affairs at that time and had only entered the officialdom for a few years, so he sometimes had to work overtime at night.

 And sometimes they work overtime passively.

That night, he was returning home after working overtime. When he was passing by the Surabaya River, he heard some noise in the river, and found out that a young man had fallen into the water and was struggling desperately.

 So, without thinking, he jumped into the river and rescued the young man.

Originally, he wanted to send the boy home. After all, it was getting dark and the boy fell into the water again, but he refused.

The young man asked Mr. Chen his name, remembered his appearance, and left alone. Apparently he was worried that Mr. Chen would send him back and his family would be scolded if they found out that he had fallen into the water.

 And the young man who fell into the water was Xie Yunshang.

Xie Yunshang was still very naughty at the time. He fell into the water and ran home secretly. He did not tell his family, but he always kept Master Chen's life-saving grace in his heart.

 So, from time to time he would go to Mr. Chen’s home to visit Mr. Chen and express his gratitude.

However, because he came frequently, he was discovered by his family later, and in the end he was forbidden to go to Chen's house.

  After all, their family is a military general, and they represent more than just themselves. If the military general has a close relationship with the civil servants, this will definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion, which is not good for both parties.

 After all, one is the Marquis and the other is the Minister of Household Affairs.

Originally, the two families were not involved at all, but suddenly one day, their relationship became inexplicably close. How could this not be suspicious?

 For the emperor, once he becomes suspicious of his ministers, he will be in trouble, because the emperor does not need any evidence for what he wants to do.

Therefore, after being banned, Xie Yunnan had to report the truth truthfully. The head of the Xie family, Marquis Pingyuan, came to express his gratitude in person, and then told the public about the matter, which dispelled everyone's doubts.

 However, despite this relationship, the two families did not continue to have close contacts. After all, military generals and civil servants were supposed to be in opposition, not closely related.

 So, Mr. Chen and Ping Yuanhou still maintained their previous relationship, and they occasionally interacted with each other during festivals or other times.

 Furthermore, the reason why Mr. Chen was exiled this time was not beheaded, and Pingyuan Hou also played a role.

 Otherwise, the imperial censor and others simply could not defeat the minister and his entourage, nor could they change the emperor's mind.

It was Pingyuan Hou and other military generals who sternly demanded a thorough investigation, but the emperor did not want a thorough investigation because it involved his second son, the second prince.

He was very angry when he knew about this, but after all, he was his son and the second prince of Dayue Kingdom, so the emperor knew that it was impossible to kill his son.

Therefore, when others introduced the "mastermind Chen", the emperor followed the trend and even cut the knot with a sharp knife. He basically put the entire household department, except the minister of the household department, into prison and beheaded in public.

At this time, the imperial censor and others knew Mr. Chen’s character, so they interceded for Mr. Chen.

The emperor just wanted to understand this case as soon as possible, so naturally he would not listen to his ministers and kill the person. This is the end of the matter.

 But at this time, Pingyuan Hou spoke up.

Pingyuan Hou is, after all, a relative of the emperor. Naturally, the emperor cannot ignore his words.

Moreover, Pingyuanhou is still a military general.

Ping Yuanhou said that this case cannot be dismissed easily, and a thorough investigation must be carried out to give an explanation to the victims.

How can the emperor dare to conduct a thorough investigation? If the investigation continues, it will be on his son.

 He knew that Mr. Chen saved Pingyuanhou's son's life, otherwise Pingyuanhou would not have stood up for a civil servant.

 So he betrayed Marquis Pingyuan to save face, and other civil servants also kept interceding for Chen Yuan.

In addition, the emperor also knew that Chen Yuan was innocent, so he thought of a compromise method and had the Chen family confiscated and exiled.

It just so happened that the Nanman area was in urgent need of a new batch of prisoners due to the invasion of the Nanman tribe some time ago. As a result, almost all the prisoners who had previously opened up the wasteland were killed.

With a wave of his hand, the emperor beheaded some of them in public and exiled others.

 In fact, it is exile with a background and beheading without a background.

Anyway, the emperor also knew that basically few people who went to the Southern Barbarians could come back.

 When the prime minister was exiled, it was only to Pingzhou and other places as a pretense.

 Let’s get back to business.

Because he needed to avoid suspicion, Xie Yunshang rarely came to the Chen family. Later, Xie Yunshang was sent to the border for training by Pingyuan Marquis, so he rarely came to the Chen family.

 As a result, Chen Yuan did not recognize Xie Yunshang immediately.

 “It turns out it’s you!”

Mr. Chen suddenly realized it, and when Xie Yunshang saw this, he also smiled. Then when he saw Mother Chen, he also cupped his hands and said, "Aunt Chen!"

“This is Xiaoxue, I haven’t seen you for so long, and she has grown up!”

 Chen Xue was still worried that the secret in her sleeve would be exposed, but who knew that General Pingwei would become one of his own.

She looked through the memories of her predecessor and found that she did have the memory of Xie Yunshang. When Xie Yunshang came over when she was a child, her predecessor kept calling "Brother Yun, Brother Yun."

If it weren't for their father's status, I'm afraid the two families would have become in-laws.

 Fortunately, Marquis Pingyuan saw this, so he took Xie Yunshang away very early, instead of him running to the Chen family every day.

 After that, Xie Yunshang was sent to the frontier for training, which resulted in them not seeing each other for more than ten years, and they almost forgot about this person.

 But no matter what, now we recognize each other again.

 However, people who are on their own are easy to get things done.
