Chapter 47： exile

"Exile?"

Hearing Gu Lang say this word, Chen Xing's eyes were puzzled for the first time. He had heard this word in TV dramas before, but in his cognition Those prisoners were escorted to the past, but these prisoners not far away were obviously escorted in prison cars.

"What?" Gu Lang looked at the doubts in Chen Xing's eyes and asked thoughtfully.

Listening to Gu Lang's gentle voice, Chen Xing felt a little embarrassed when he thought about the problem he was struggling with just now.

Gu Lang looked at him, as if he had guessed what was on his mind, and continued in a low voice: "Is there something that makes it difficult for the stars to tell me? If that's the case, wouldn't that be too out of touch with me?"

When Chen Xing heard Gu Lang say this, he immediately became anxious, looked at him and said anxiously: "I don't, I just think my question is too stupid."

"I don't despise you." Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's anxious look, gently raised the corners of his lips, and said softly, "Who called you a star."

Hearing Chen Xing's words, Gu Lang smiled softly, looked up at the team that was gradually walking away, and said softly: "It is logical that they should all walk there, after all, that's the case. It's just punishment. It's just that the place of exile is hard, and these people may not survive there. Some county magistrates take pity on these prisoners, and they will let the prison carts take them for a ride until they leave the place under their jurisdiction and go to the place of exile. On the edge, these prison wagons are back."

!

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's tangled face, as if he had guessed what he was thinking, looked at him and asked, "But why are you still being so kind to them after you've been exiled? "

Gu Lang guessed, Chen Xing felt a little embarrassed, how could Gu Lang know everything. Although shy, he was very curious about the answer to this matter, so he looked at Gu Lang with a tangled face, waiting for his answer.

Gu Lang did not immediately answer the question just now, but looked at Chen Xing and asked, "Do you know how the previous dynasty was in power?"

How could Chen Xing know about this? So, he honestly shook his head in front of Gu Lang, and honestly expressed that he didn't know about it.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing with a confused look, the curvature of the corners of his lips gradually deepened, and his eyes looked at not far away, as if recalling a long-term memory, he slowly opened his eyes mouth,

"The emperor of the previous dynasty was the uncle of the new emperor. The new emperor lost his father when he was young, so his uncle took the opportunity to take the throne. It's a pity that although the emperor grabbed the position, he did not take the responsibility of his Responsibility for position, doing things depends on preference, and even in the imperial court, partisans are allowed to be relatives. As a result, there is a situation of collusion between top and bottom, and corrupt officials are rampant. If they do not join forces with them, or even want to overthrow them, they will mutual Collusion and frame-up sent his family into exile."

When Chen Xing heard Gu Lang say this, a conjecture gradually emerged in his mind.

As expected, Gu Lang continued: "There are local parents who sympathize with them, but dare not help them blatantly, so they can only help them maintain their final dignity in this way, hoping that they will be able to Be better in the days to come.

And the rule of sending them off in prison cars has been kept until now, but now it is not for them to survive, but to show the benevolence and righteousness of the local parents and officials. "

It's worth noting that these criminals now enjoy the same treatment as those good officials.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's distressed expression, put away the unpredictable expression on his face, and returned to the warm and jade-like appearance of the past, reaching out and rubbing him With a smile on his head, he said, "Okay, don't think too much about it, it's all in the past. The new emperor is a benevolent ruler, and under his governance, this country will get better and better!"

Seeing Chen Xing and coaxing, Gu Lang also showed a smile, and then said: "Didn't you say you want to go to the shop? Let's find someone first, he should know about the rentals nearby information."

"Well." Chen Xing had no objection to Gu Lang's arrangement. After all, he had not been here for a long time, and he knew far less than Gu Lang. Chen Xing left the place side by side and walked in the direction Gu Lang said.

None of them noticed that the dirty and numb woman who was in a corner of the prison car suddenly looked in their direction. After seeing Gu Lang's appearance clearly, Excitedly, he rushed to the edge of the prison car, and stretched out his hand as if trying to grab Gu Lang.

Said: "Give me a little quiet! Don't make any noises, or I will show you a good look."

Boss Qiao was slapped with a whip while covering himself. At this time, his hot and painful hand looked at the official who was staring at him threateningly, and nodded desperately.

The officer looked at her cowardly, with a satisfied expression on her face, spit and put away the whip in her hand, and went to chat with her colleagues with her hands behind her back. .

Boss Qiao looked at the officials who had left, and re-looked at the direction where Gu Lang and the others were standing just now, only to see that there was nothing but an empty bamboo basket.

Boss Qiao thought of the scene she saw just now, the handsome scholar and the handsome little brother were talking, the picture was as beautiful as a painting, and her tears fell unconsciously . At first, weeping softly, then weeping loudly, gradually becoming more and more heart-wrenching.

She was wrong! She was really wrong! She shouldn't have moved that greed in the first place. If she didn't move that greed, maybe she wouldn't be what she is now!

Boss Qiao cried heart-to-heart.

The officer with the whip in his hand glanced at the woman who had just been warned, and now made a noise, just about to raise the whip in his hand to teach her a lesson, when the officer beside him pulled.

The official looked at him and smiled jokingly: "Let her go, I won't cry anymore anyway."

The officer holding the whip glanced at the person who was talking to him, then at the woman whose voice gradually became smaller, and put away the whip, "Yes, after all, you can't cry when you die."

Chen Xing followed Gu Lang away from the street full of shops and came to a community full of residents.

Looking at the alleys lined up in front of them and rushing to life, Chen Xing looked at a bare-ass child who ran over, and was a little curious about how the person Gu Lang said lived here.

When Chen Xing came back to his senses again, he saw Gu Lang, who was supposed to be standing next to him, who had reached the door of a courtyard in front of him, and gently knocked the door bolt .

After a while, a half-blind old man opened the door from the inside, looked at Gu Lang who was standing outside and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Gu Lang looked at the old man and said politely: "Old man, we want to rent a shop, so I came here to find out about it."

The old man glanced at the calm Gu Lang, then looked at Chen Xing curiously in the alley not far away, opened the door in front of him and let them in.

Chen Xing lifted his foot and walked in, Gu Lang quickly followed him in, and when he got inside, he realized that although the yard was small, it was very clean. A young man in his early twenties was sitting on a rocking chair and swaying slowly.

After Chen Xing and the others came in, the young man glanced at them lightly, then sat up slowly from the rocking chair, looked at them and said, "What are you doing here?"

“Rent.”

The man raised his eyebrows, looked at Gu Lang who was talking, and continued: "What do you need? What is the price you can probably afford?"

Gu Lang immediately said what they had negotiated with the Gu family, "We need a shop with a kitchen that is easy to do business."

The man lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, then raised his head to look at them again, and said in a low voice: "I know a few places like this, are you looking at the room now or make an appointment for a later time? God see?"

Gu Lang glanced at the curious Chen Xing and said directly: "Just today."

"Okay." You young man is also unequivocal, patted the dust that does not exist on the clothes, and directly led Chen Xing and the others towards the shops he mentioned.

Chen Xing watched him lead the way by himself, and didn't talk to them. He felt that he was very different from those intermediaries in his previous life, and he pulled Gu Lang's sleeve curiously. When he looked over curiously, he asked his curiosity, "Is this the way he usually shows people around the house?"

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's undisguised expression, how a person like him did business, smiled softly, and explained for him: "He is the This style, although it does not seem very reliable, can basically satisfy the employer as long as he is found."

Hearing Gu Lang's explanation, Chen Xing admired the man in front of him a little more. It was not easy to get the employer to come to the door and be satisfied with the work.

While Chen Xing and Gu Lang were talking, the man had brought them to the first store they wanted to see.

The man stopped, raised his chin, and said to the two following behind: "This is the first house."
