Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 204: Cannon Fodder in the Confiscated Property and Exile Story 9

When Aunt Wang saw Jiang Ping, she quickly went over and hugged her.

"Ping'er, are you alright?"

"Auntie, what happened?"

"The Third Prince lost, the Old Master has been beheaded, and the Prime Minister's mansion has been sentenced to have its property confiscated and be exiled."

Aunt Wang whispered in Jiang Ping's ear.

The Third Prince?

Jiang Ping remembered that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion, Jiang Lan, was the Third Prince's wife.

So now the Third Prince has lost to the other princes, and his grandfather, the Prime Minister, has also been beheaded. The Prime Minister's mansion is facing the fate of having its property confiscated and being exiled.

Jiang Ping suddenly felt like the sky had fallen.

Confiscating property and exiling people—that could lead to death.

She thought that being reborn as a young lady meant she would never have to worry about food or drink, but she never expected that her good days would end in such a disaster.

Could you let her travel back in time?

Other transmigrated women are all chosen ones, with superhuman abilities, and they even save generals and princes right from the start.

How come she's the one without any special advantages, and now she's being exiled? The difference is just too great.

Jiang Ping fainted.

Her cold had worsened, and she was already weak. Now, she suffered such a blow and fainted immediately.

"Ping'er, Ping'er, what's wrong?" Aunt Wang asked anxiously, holding Jiang Ping in her arms.

But at that moment, everyone was in danger, and no one stepped forward to help.

Aunt Wang called out to Jiang Linyun, but Jiang Linyun pretended not to hear and walked away.

Now that he is in dire straits himself, even if he likes Consort Wang, he would never beg these soldiers for the sake of a concubine's daughter.

The soldiers came to ransack the house, and he said he wanted to fetch a doctor. The best outcome would be for the soldiers to ignore him; if he angered them, they could just lash out with their whips, and he'd be asking for trouble.

Seeing that Jiang Ping had fainted, Jiang Yu went to Aunt Wang's side.

"Aunt Wang, why has Sister Jiang Ping fainted? Is she unable to withstand the shock?"

"Jiang Ping's resilience is too weak! Look over there, Fourth Sister is standing there perfectly fine, she didn't faint from fright."

Jiang Yu disliked Jiang Ping, and seeing Jiang Ping having a hard time made her feel better.

They also compared Jiang Ping with the youngest, Jiang He.

However, she didn't remember Jiang He's name, only that she was from the third branch of the family and was the fourth young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion.

The third branch of the family had little presence in the Prime Minister's residence, and Jiang Yu had only seen Jiang He a few times.

But that didn't stop her from taking the person over and stepping on Jiang Ping.

"Second Miss, Ping'er fainted because she hadn't recovered from a cold."

"It's just a minor cold, but it's been so many days and it's still not better. Could it be that he's faking it?"

“Xiaoyu, some people probably think they can avoid exile by faking illness.” Jiang Yangxu stood next to Jiang Yu, and the two of them echoed each other.

Aunt Wang was speechless. She knew that Ping'er wasn't faking illness, but had really fainted.

But Ping'er was much better yesterday, so why does she seem to be in worse shape today?

Did Ping'er not take her medicine obediently last night?

“Aunt, don’t worry, I’ll go and beg the soldiers to find a doctor for my sister.”

Seeing his aunt being bullied and his sister fainting and not knowing what was happening, Jiang Yangyi, as a son and elder brother, felt he should stand up for his sister.

Jiang Yangyi walked up to the officers and soldiers. He saw that the other officers and soldiers were bowing to him, so they must be the leaders.

Jiang Yangyi bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

"Sir, my sister has caught a cold and hasn't fully recovered yet. She just had a fright and fainted again. Please do me the favor of sending a doctor to take a look at her."

The officer glanced at Jiang Yangyi; he had seen everything the others had done.

If he's guessing correctly, this is a son born out of wedlock, and the little girl is just a daughter born out of wedlock.

Call a doctor? You wish!

The officer winked at the officer next to him, "Go over and see if he's really dizzy or faking it."

"Yes, my lord."

The officer walked up to Jiang Ping.

"You mean she fainted?"

"Yes, sir. Ping'er fell into the lotus pond a couple of days ago and caught a cold. Please make an exception and find a doctor to take a look at her."

"No problem, I can help with this little thing."

The officers and soldiers laughed heartily.

When Aunt Wang saw that the soldiers had agreed, she smiled.

As a result, they saw the soldiers take out whips and lash out at Jiang Ping.

The whip struck Jiang Ping's arm, leaving a red welt.

"Isn't it just about waking someone up? Why bother calling a doctor? I can help you."

The officers and soldiers burst into laughter.

He continued to lash out with the whip.

Aunt Wang never expected the soldiers to help in this way. Seeing the whip coming down, she collapsed onto Jiang Ping's body.

"Sir, please, stop hitting us. We know we were wrong. Sir, you don't need to help us anymore."

Aunt Wang begged the soldiers to stop whipping her.

The officers and soldiers have already taken out their whips; they won't be able to put them back so easily.

The whip lashed down again and again.

Jiang Yangyi was surprised when the soldiers started whipping his aunt and sister. He tried to stop them, but was blocked by another soldier.

"What? You want to make a move?"

Jiang Yangyi was pushed to the ground, and the whip was used to strike him.

Over there, Li Shi, Jiang Yangxu, and Jiang Yu watched the three of them being whipped, feeling extremely pleased.

Those who are not respectable deserve to be beaten.

Jiang Linyun felt a pang of pity seeing the three being whipped, but he dared not step forward for fear of being whipped himself.

Seeing the reluctance in Jiang Linyun's eyes, Li cursed inwardly, "That Aunt Wang is such a vixen."

The master had been neglecting her before, but she must have used some tricks to seduce him.

Surely the master wouldn't plead for this wretched woman?

"Master, with Aunt Wang and the others making such a fuss, the soldiers are all angry. Won't they take their anger out on us?"

What if they beat us all up to vent their anger later?

"Oh dear, Aunt Wang, how did she manage to offend the soldiers?"

Li said with a worried expression.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Linyun also felt that Aunt Wang was asking for trouble by deliberately provoking the soldiers.

Are these officers and soldiers someone they can afford to mess with right now?

If things go wrong, it could implicate all of them.

Jiang Linyun stepped back, as if trying to distance himself from Aunt Wang.

Li also pulled Jiang Yangxu and Jiang Yu away a bit.

Watching a play is enjoyable, but I'm also worried about getting implicated.

Standing at a distance, Jiang He took Sun's hand.

Sun hugged Jiang He.

"Xiao He, don't be afraid. As long as we don't deliberately cause trouble or invite bad luck, we won't be whipped."

During your exile, be careful with your words and actions; speak less and do less else.

With so many eyes watching during their exile, Madam Sun was also reminding Jiang He not to reveal the secret of the space.

Jiang He nodded silently and looked at Jiang Ping.

I wonder what it feels like to have that whip fall on your body?

It probably wasn't a big deal for her, right?

It's just a matter of a few lashes, isn't it?

Why make such painful howls?

It's kind of scary.

Jiang Ping really felt that this time travel was worse than not having traveled at all.

What exactly happened when she fainted? Why was she whipped by the soldiers?
