pouted with grievance and walked shyly to Jiang Wan's side, "I'm sorry, I... Can I borrow your pot"She was too embarrassed to ask for something to eat. After she finished speaking, her fingers had tu...Everyone had failed to drink the porridge. Ginger, with her sharp eyes, noticed that even the officials accompanying Ren Bang were doing so as well.

They first ate the steamed buns and, while the Xu family wasn't paying attention, they disposed of the porridge.

After a while, everyone who had drunk the porridge started to get drowsy and their eyelids drooped, as if they were about to faint.

Ginger and Song Jiubian exchanged a glance, the two silently gave their family members a look, collectively fainted, even the officer was no exception.

Shen Qian had been volunteering to ladle out porridge. Just as she was about to take a sip, she saw everyone fainting and stood there, bewildered with the bowl of porridge in her hand.

"Big Brother Xu, what's going on What happened to everyone!"

She was a little scared, her hands were shaking, and a bad feeling came over her. Xu Wei smiled softly and reached out to take the porridge from her hand.

"Qianqian, don't be afraid, they are fine."

But...

Shen Qian was so frightened that her face turned pale. She suddenly understood what Jiang Wan meant by those words. She hurriedly looked at Jiang Wan, but found that Jiang Wan had also fainted.

"Brother Xu, what do you want to do"

At this moment, the vast threshing floor seemed to hold only Xu Wei and Shen Qian. This was a few moments specially reserved by the magistrate for his beloved grandson.

Once he has dealt with Shen Qian, the villagers will come to attend to official business.

Xu Wei's fingertips landed on Shen Qian's face, lightly pinching and rough calluses lifting her chin.

You are different from them. They are destined to become slaves in our village, but you can be my wife.

"And then there's Lady Li Zheng, they will forever be your servants, isn't that good"

I have to say, Shen Qian had a moment of heart flutter, but when she thought about the powerful official, she was scared and trembled, "But...but sir..."

Don't be afraid!

Xu Wei encircled Shen Qian's waist, "What does it matter if he is an official We haven't caught any officials here before."

Anyway, once you get there, no one can get out, and the imperial court won't be able to find out.

Xu Wei had a confident air, and Shen Qian was so frightened that she trembled. But facing Xu Wei's icy gaze, she dared not disobey, only nervously biting her lip.

"Well, aren't you going to come with me!"

Xu Wei suddenly clenched Shen Qian's jaw, "You would rather follow your banished husband than me"

If it weren't for Shen Qian having a certain charm and being from an official family, Xu Wei would never have taken a married woman as his wife.

"No...not."

Shen Qian dared not refute, Xu Wei then considered himself to have gotten his way with Shen Qian, and hugged her to satisfy his desires.

Ginger's doubts in her mind grew even stronger, but at this point she had already come this far. Even if it ended, she wouldn't say she was the one who called it quits.

As long as Ren Bang is fake, they just need to wake up at the same time as him.

She was feeling down when Song Jiubian, who was slumped beside her, touched her hand with his fingertip. She immediately froze in fright.

Their fingertips brushed, and it felt as if something was surging into her palm. Jiang Wan actually wanted to avoid Song Jiu's touch, but she feared that a large movement would alert Xu Wei.

Just then, Jiang Wan noticed Song Jiu's fingertip writing on her hand. What was he trying to convey

His fingertips lightly wrote something stroke by stroke, like feathers brushing against the palm of his hand. Ginger felt an itch in her palm.

But at that moment, he wasn't thinking about anything else. After writing one character, Jiang Wan only then realized he had written "wait."

等……

When these people reveal their true intentions.

Ginger nodded her fingertip, indicating understanding. This sneaky behavior made Song Jiubian's emotions complicated.

What's even more complicated is that she actually understood what he meant. Ginger was truly devoted to him.

Ginger…

He leaned over and kissed Shen Qian's eye corner, making her tremble even more violently. Xu Wei spoke in a hushed voice.

"Behave yourself, or you'll end up like them."

"I... I know."

Shen Qian wanted to cry but had no tears, she deeply regretted meeting Xu Weishi outside the ruined temple and letting him see the meat in her hands.

Xu Wei could not care less about Shen Qian's thoughts. He held her slender waist and, with a wave of his hand, Xu Lizheng led over a dozen young men from the village.

"As always, deliver it to the entrance first."

Xu Li Zheng's spirit was bright and lively, nowhere resembling the appearance of using a cane when he arrived at the village entrance. He startled Shen Qian quite badly.

"Is this the manner of an official's daughter"

Xu Li was somewhat disdainful, but since it was his grandson's favorite, he would let him have his way. When he got tired of it, he would naturally change it.

This wasn't the first time, so Xu Li Zheng was particularly understanding. However, Shen Qian felt very uncomfortable.

They continued to feign unconsciousness, and someone carried them onto a cart and took them somewhere.

Though Jiang Wan pretended to be unconscious, her powerful mental strength had long ago secretly memorized the path.

"Little fairy, draw me a map."

Ginger was intentionally testing the system, but she didn't expect it to agree.

"Yes, master."

It seems the system still has many functions she doesn't know about, she needs to explore them gradually.

The exiled people, plus the officials, actually numbered close to three hundred. Xu LiZheng and his men had ten ox carts, which they had to pull three or four times.

Just then, she was in the middle. As everyone who came to pull them left, she opened her eyes and met Ren Bang and Song Jiu Yuan’s gazes.

Thanks to the girl's tip, we would have been in trouble.

"I wonder what the Lord Prefect intends to do"

Song Jiubian should calm down. They seemed to be at the foot of a mountain right now.

They were probably too confident, and no one was watching them.

Ren Bang glanced at his brother who had just woken up and said directly, "I want to see what their purpose is. If necessary, we will turn the tables and report them!"

"We will cooperate with you."

Ginger and Song Jiubian looked at each other, then heard the sound of a cart. Several people quickly lay back down, pretending to be unconscious.

This time, Xu Wei came with Shen Qian. Shen Qian looked at the people lying on the ground and asked in a trembling voice:

"Excuse me... Excuse me, big brother, where is this"

She still doesn't know Xu Wei and the villagers' intentions, but she is quite scared.

What do you want us to do

Xu Wei smiled, "Since you're already here, I might as well tell you, there's a mine under the mountain."

These people were brought here to mine for us in the village. If you don't want to come with me, then go and mine with them. You won't ever be able to leave for the rest of your life.

"Mining... Mining"

Shen Qian was dumbfounded. She never expected such a result, to be locked up in the dark mountains. This was something she absolutely did not want.

So Shen Qian could only act pitifully, tugging at Xu Wei's sleeve, "Xu Gege, I didn't say I wasn't willing."

Is this willing to follow Xu Wei

Ginger secretly complained in her heart, wondering if Song Chen would be so angry that he'd die if he heard this.

But there's a mine

Ginger's heart skipped a beat. Aside from gold and silver mines, she couldn't think of anything else that would drive people to such madness.

Heavens, something this valuable can't be sold cheap to that dog emperor.

No, this isn't worth it. If I'm going to move it, I'm taking the whole thing! Ginger's mind raced with ways to secretly empty these gold and silver mines.

Xu Weizheng hugged Shen Qian with a smug smile, "Don't worry, once they go in, don't even think about coming out."

As for those few who you dislike, from now on, how you choose to deal with them is entirely up to you.

He said this with his mouth, but couldn't help but lick his lips. When they were tired of suffering, he would try his best to please them.

At that time, he will taste those women again.r food, unfazed. Meanwhile, Madam Chen took a bite of meat and swallowed.She felt a warmth spread through her belly, thinking it was just the meat nourishing her body. She didn't know that Ginger had...
