Thanks to Guanshi Ye's arrangement, the big stone in Chen Huanan's heart slowly fell to the ground.
Although the two brothers and sisters of the Chen family had not seen their father, after receiving Guanshi Ye's assurance, Chen Huan'an also chose an attitude of complete belief.
Afterwards, Chen Huanan took his sister and prepared to leave.
At this time, in a dark hut, Chen Shoubei finally woke up from his coma. Then he looked around Heisui, and then he planned to get up. ..
However, when he was about to get up, he soon discovered that his hands and feet seemed to be tied up with ropes.
Therefore, he immediately tried to break free from the rope and stand up.
It's a pity that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free of the rope. Moreover, under his struggle, the rope only bound him tighter and tighter.
He couldn't help but close his eyes and just thought in his heart, what kind of nightmare this was.
He remembered that he originally planned to go to Anxi Prefecture, but the streets and alleys of Anxi Prefecture were already covered with wanted notices about him.
He couldn't enter the city at the moment, and he heard outside Huamei Tavern that his ex-daughter-in-law seemed to be in love with a petty official named Shen, so there was no point in him running to see the Anxi magistrate at this time.
He might even end up in jail himself. Therefore, he finally changed his mind and decided to go to Fenhe County to find Fenhe Prefect. Due to the change of route, he only left an encrypted letter to his son. After that, he even specifically asked the waiter of Huamei Tavern to keep the letters for him. After making the explanation, he went to Fenhe County, where the prefect of Fenhe was.
His relationship with the Fenhe prefect was stronger than that of the Anxi magistrate. After all, they were partners in the sale of weapons. The original alliance of interests was now considered partners in the same boat. He thought that if the fish died, the net would be broken. They would not Maybe let yourself go.
But he never thought that if he went to Fenhe Prefecture, the Fenhe Prefecture would prepare a large table of wine and food for him. After that, he only had three glasses of wine before his vision went dark.
And when he opened his eyes again, he appeared in this small dark room.
Obviously, in Fenhe County, it is unlikely that he will be pursued by the government, so he is afraid that there is a high possibility that the prefect of Fenhe County will take action.
But does the prefect of Fenhe County really dare to do this to him?
Chen Shoubei couldn't help but speculate on various possibilities.
While he was guessing, a white light suddenly flashed out in the dark cabin.
And with a creaking sound, the door was opened. Chen Shoubei immediately met a middle-aged man wearing a diamond-patterned satin gown.
As soon as he saw the gentle look of the bearded man, Chen Shoubei couldn't help but said to the man, "Prefect He is indeed you!"
Then Governor He just smiled slightly and said, "So what if it's me? What? Didn't the guard expect that it was me at the moment?"
After hearing what Prefect He said. Chen Shoubei only asked coldly, "He Zhan'ao! What do you want!"
Hearing Chen Shoubei's words, Prefect He just smiled softly and said, "Brother Chen, don't be excited. I will naturally send you to where you should go!"
Upon hearing what Prefect He said, Chen Shoubei immediately shouted loudly, "You ungrateful bastard! Why don't you die? I shouldn't have been so nice to you in the first place, let alone risk my life to save your life!"
Chen Shoubei's face flushed with anger at this time, and he shouted loudly and immediately glared at Prefect He.
Naturally, the prefect He also saw Chen Shoubei, but towards Chen Shoubei, the prefect showed astonishing indifference, "Chen Shoubei said this as if I was really a villain. I didn't do this because I had no choice. After all, you When the Dongchuang incident happened over there, I didn't trust you. If you said something that shouldn't be said and implicated me, wouldn't this matter become a big deal? So for my safety, I have no choice but to wrong you, Chen Xiandi. Don't worry, dear brother, if you go, I won't treat you badly. I will remember to burn more paper for you during the next New Year. In this way, dear brother, you will have money to use in the underworld."
Chen Shoubei glared at Prefect He and said, "Huh! Don't worry, if something happens to me, you will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility! You don't think I really trust you so much, do you? In fact, I have already
There is evidence of your collusion with me. "
Facing Chen Shoubei's threat, Governor He obviously didn't take it seriously.
"Brother Chen, don't I know what kind of person you are? You can't! I believe you."
"Who says I can't do it! I left a letter for my children. As long as you dare to attack me, they will also hand over your matter to the government."
At first, Governor He didn't take it seriously when he heard what Chen Shoubei said. However, when Chen Shoubei mentioned his children, he began to believe it. After all, Chen Shoubei's children really came to find him.
So he immediately said in a cold voice, "Brother Chen, did you really guard against me?"
In order to save his life, Chen Shoubei naturally nodded and said, "Yes! I just guarded you! What? Are you scared now?"
Hearing this, Prefect He only said softly, "Of course I'm scared! Because your son and daughter who were guarding you actually came to my house."
Upon hearing what Governor He said, Chen Shoubei's face immediately lit up with joy.
"You mean Huan'an and the others are here?"
"Yes!" Prefect He responded.
"Great! My son is here, let me go see them! Otherwise I will expose you." Chen Shoubei threatened.
Prefect He just said softly, "I will let you see them. Butler Ye is currently receiving them. If nothing else happens, they may still be at the house. Even if they are not at the house, I think they have not gone far. Since you want to see them, I will kidnap them to see you! In this way, you father and son can also meet each other. And with luck, the three of you, father and son, may be able to go underground together and be companions along the way. I’m not alone anymore.”
Upon hearing what Governor He said, Chen Shoubei was even more excited than before, "You dare!"
"Brother Chen Xian, I dare to kill you, why don't I dare to attack them?"
"But if you are willing to hand over the letter to me, maybe I can let them go! Of course, the premise is that the informant letter should be in their hands."
Upon hearing what Governor He said, Chen Shoubei immediately said to Governor He, "Don't touch them! You kill me! You kill me! I beg you don't touch them."
Hearing this, Prefect He just pretended to be "I don't want to touch them, but brother Chen Xian, you said that they had evidence of collusion between you and me. If so, of course I can't keep you! After all, I don't want to die yet."
Chen Shoubei's words were originally meant to scare Prefect He. Now that Prefect He said this, it would be okay if there was evidence on his son's body. But if there was no evidence, Prefect He was very suspicious and would probably not let them go. Yes, when he thought that his son's life was likely to be in danger, Chen Shoubei felt a burst of despair.
He looked up at Prefect He and said, "They don't have any evidence. Brother He, I really didn't guard against you, and I don't have any evidence of guilt! Let Huan An and Wu Yatou go, they won't retaliate against you!"
"Really? But how do you prove that they don't have records of the things you and I did? I can't believe the way you swear." Prefect He said in a low voice.
Then he seemed to sigh and said, "Brother Chen Xian, I really didn't want to do anything to your children. After all, I didn't tell my children about you and me selling weapons. I think you should be the same. This kind of thing can't be done well." It’s just a matter of losing one’s head, it’s really not worth involving them, but if you want to report me, how can I let you go!”
"But don't worry, dear brother, I will let your family reunite first, and then I will send you on your way."
After saying this, no matter how much Chen Shoubei begged, Governor He no longer paid attention to him. He laughed and walked towards the outer hall.
Chen Shoubei watched the door close in front of him, and felt an unprecedented despair rising in his heart. He did not want to implicate his children, but this time their family was afraid that they would have no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
And when he fell into great despair, not long after Governor Nahe left, a small voice sounded at the door again.
Then with a soft click, the door lock was opened.
Hearing that voice, Chen Shoubei couldn't help but turn his head and look over.
This time the person who came in was a man wearing night clothes and a mask in black. With his attire and his behavior, a closer look would tell that the man was probably not from the He garrison.
After all, what are the people who are guarding?
Is it possible to dress like this?
Although he still didn't know who the other party was at the moment, being able to sneak into this courtyard proved that this person was very skilled.
Therefore, at this moment, almost as soon as the other party approached him, Chen Shoubei immediately begged, "Hero! Please save my son and daughter! I will give you whatever you want! I will tell you whatever you want."
Hearing Chen Shoubei's words, the secret guard was just shocked. He didn't expect that Chen Shoubei was so smart, but he still asked tentatively, "Are you serious about telling me everything?"
Chen Shoubei nodded immediately.
The secret guard then said again, "What about the things I want you to tell me about selling weapons? Are you willing to tell me honestly?"
Chen Shoubei immediately nodded and said, "That's natural! I will answer whatever you ask! As long as my children are fine!"
Upon hearing Chen Shoubei's words, the secret guard only said, "Okay! Don't break your promise."
Chen Shoubei only smiled in embarrassment and said, "How dare I break my promise? My life is in your hands, isn't it? If you rescue my son, his life will also be in your hands."
When the secret guard heard this, he simply said, "You'd better explain everything honestly."
After saying this, the secret guard prepared to take Chen Shoubei away.
However, Chen Shoubei immediately said, "Sir, my son is in this house. Should you save him first?"
However, in response to Chen Shoubei's words, the secret guard said with a cold face, "Don't worry, after I rescue you first, I will go over and rescue your children."
