Seized and Exiled With the Kids: Empty the House, Cut Ties, Then Feast

Before Shen Zhiyi was executed along with her entire family, she saw the man she had loved for half her life, the husband she had married even at the cost of breaking with her family: Xie Lin, the chief grand secretary of the current dynasty. He was gently holding her half-sister as he watched Shen Zhiyi die with cold indifference.

Her half-sister giggled. “Sister, you really are a fool. Your dowry and your pocket dimension are mine now. Oh, and your son will call me Mother.”

Reborn, Shen Zhiyi returned to three days before her family was condemned and their home confiscated.

This time, she dumped her scumbag husband, Xie Lin, without a moment’s hesitation.

Then she emptied the entire chief grand secretary’s residence as fast as she could, right down to the floor tiles!

Gold, silver, jewels, antiques, paintings, silks and satins... She moved every last thing into the boundless food storage space already soul-bound to her.

When the soldiers arrived to confiscate the residence, all they found was an utterly empty mansion, so bare even a mouse would have to leave in tears, and Shen Zhiyi holding a baby, looking completely innocent.

“My lord, our home... has been robbed.”

On the road to exile, everyone was starving and gaunt. Her awful relatives wanted to steal half a steamed bun from her son, while her ex-husband’s family waited to see her kneel and beg for mercy.

But Shen Zhiyi hugged her son and devoured a whole roast lamb, while watching the people outside beat one another bloody over a stale bun.

She was no longer the lovesick fool she had once been. Now she was a wasteland queen with a fortune in supplies at her fingertips.

And her ex-husband, Xie Lin? She heard he was so hungry on the road to exile that he gnawed on tree bark, and his enemies had broken one of his legs.

Shen Zhiyi only gave a cold laugh, then turned to Xiao Ce, the disgraced official’s descendant who had quietly protected her with burning eyes, and who would one day become a rebel king. “Hungry? Let me treat you to a good meal. In return, how about you break Xie Lin’s other leg?”
