Chapter 607 Sending You On Your Way
The sun is shining and the weather is perfect!
In the cell yard, there were guards all around who were waiting, and there were many traps set outside the cell door.
With the risk of being robbed and imprisoned last time, the government took it very seriously this time and sent a large number of government officials to monitor and escort him along the way. Even the streets were cleared early.
At this moment, in front of the cell door.
Chen Xu was in a good mood.
He leaned outside the cell door, wearing a green shirt and robe, looking down at the escorted figure in his sight, who had already turned pale and fell limply on the ground.
He had waited for so long and finally got this opportunity!
He finally waited until he could see with his own eyes that the aloof young master of the Chen family, who had never taken him seriously in the past, ignored him and humiliated him, dispatched him at will, and never looked at him, had fallen into such a miserable state.
And he had also waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to step on him personally and humiliate him in revenge!
At this moment, Chen Xu's face was full of smiles, that kind of indescribable sneer! He looked very warm, but under the sunlight, he looked very cold.
"You wouldn't have thought that the eldest son of the Chen family of Youtiantang would fall to this point, would you?!"
Chen Junru's face was pale, and his heart was already filled with fear and despair. He looked at Chen Xu's face full of sneer. Looking at the guy in front of him who once didn't even dare to breathe in front of him, now he dares to humiliate him like this.
"you……"
Chen Junru was extremely angry and regretful. He regrets not squeezing this ant that he never took seriously, which is why he has fallen to this point now!
Facing Chen Xu's humiliation at this moment, the sneer in his eyes stung Chen Junru. He stared at Chen Xu and said angrily: "Traitor, you betrayed my father, you will not die well..."
If it weren't for Chen Xu's betrayal, how could his father be in jail?
How could I become like this? !
At this moment, Chen Junru's hatred for Chen Xu has exceeded his hatred for Lin Jiangnian!
Chen Xu sneered and said sarcastically: "You committed a heinous crime by paying someone to kill someone. In order to protect you, my uncle openly went against the government and the laws of the imperial court. It is tantamount to treason!"
"As a son of the Chen family, how can I just watch you and your son drag down the Chen family and ruin the decades-old foundation of my Chen family?"
"If you want to blame, I can only blame you for being too stupid, offending people you shouldn't offend, and doing extremely stupid things!"
Chen Junru stared at Chen Xu, wishing he could rush up and bite him twice.
Chen Xu's words were too sanctimonious, more like a villain's triumph!
Chen Xu took a few steps towards him, leaned over and lowered his voice slightly: "Speaking of which, I have to thank you, cousin!"
"If you weren't so stupid, cousin, how could it be my turn to be the heir to the Chen family?"
"You are dead today and no one can save you. But don't worry, I will definitely inherit the position of the head of the Chen family. What you can't get is now mine..."
"Just rest assured and die with your eyes in peace!"
"Hahaha……"
At the end of the sentence, Chen Xu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
carefree!
Cool!
I have never been as happy as today in my life!
Especially when he saw Chen Junru's ashen and dull expression at this moment, the sense of revenge in Chen Xu's heart reached its peak!
"You, you deserve to die!"
Chen Junru, whose eyes were dull, suddenly came to his senses at a certain moment. When he saw Chen Xu's wild and proud smile, at this moment, Chen Junru, who was extremely angry, suddenly gained some strength from somewhere.
Suddenly he stood up suddenly and rushed towards Chen Xu.
This pounce almost scared Chen Xu out of his wits!
But the moment Chen Junru jumped up, two jailers pushed him back down, one on the left and the other on the right.
After being pushed back, Chen Junru's eyes were still blazing, staring at Chen Xu.
Chen Xu was startled, and his face changed. He quickly took a few steps back, and when he saw Chen Junru struggling to his death, he sneered: "You are about to die, but you still want to resist?!"
"Don't worry, I will be there the whole time you are beheaded today, and I will watch your head fall to the ground with my own eyes!"
"Hahaha……"
After Chen Xu laughed twice, he turned around and left with a puff of sleeves.
Chen Junru was so angry that he still wanted to struggle, but was already shackled by the jailer.
"It's almost time, it's time to hit the road!"
The jailer's cold words seemed to drain Chen Junru of all his strength in an instant. He froze in place, his eyes frightened and desperate.
"No, no..."
He stammered and wanted to say something else, but the jailer had already come closer and put a black hood on his head, and then dragged him into the torture car.
Under the protection of the jailers and officers, he was escorted to the execution ground!
Linjiang City, outside the west gate.
Crowds of people!
Countless people gathered together to witness the second beheading of the eldest son of the Chen family!
On top of the city wall, in a corner that no one noticed. Chen Xu stood there quietly, looking forward with a sneer at the torture car slowly parked next to the execution site.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Junru, who was already paralyzed, was dragged to the execution ground by the government officials.
Beside the execution ground, the executioner has been waiting for a long time, and the ghost-headed knife in his hand is already thirsty!
When the black hood was taken off Chen Junru's head, he was already pale and limp on the ground, without even the strength to struggle.
At this moment, the huge crowd of people around him almost scared him to the point of peeing!
When the people around saw this scene, they were all extremely excited!
Especially seeing Chen Junru's miserable state, they were extremely surprised, and many people shouted that retribution had come!
God has eyes!
Many victims who had been persecuted and oppressed by Chen Junru were in tears at this moment, and finally their revenge was avenged!
It was very satisfying!
If the guards around the execution ground had not stopped him in time, I am afraid that the excited and angry crowd would have rushed to the execution ground and torn Chen Junru to pieces alive!
At the execution ground, the supervising officer read out Chen Junru's crimes and the government's verdict in public. When the time came, he ordered beheading!
As the executioner raised his knife and fell, it was quick and neat.
Everything was settled!
Chen Junru was dead!
This dandy who committed unspeakable crimes and angered the people of Linjiang City died in a blaze of glory, which was a worthy death!
For a long time after his death, he would become a figure that the people in the city talked about with relish!
Chen Junru died, but the impact of this incident is still far from over!
The strict investigation of the families in Linjiang City by the Linwang Mansion is still continuing, and the families in the city are still in panic!
The fate of the Zhu and Yan families whose homes were confiscated is already doomed!
After the Linwang Mansion confiscated their homes, the guards of the Linwang Mansion quickly searched the two families and found evidence that the Zhu and Yan families had privately communicated with neighboring countries and smuggled military equipment!
In this way, the evidence is conclusive!
The once huge Zhu Yan family collapsed overnight!
These families that seemed to be powerful and prestigious in the past, and sometimes even had greater influence than the Linwang Mansion. When they really faced the thunderous wrath of the Linwang Mansion, they seemed so vulnerable!
There was no power to resist!
The iron cavalry of the Linwang Mansion ruthlessly crushed these families that were once inflated and arrogant!
The demise of the Zhu and Yan families made the remaining families even more insecure. Everyone realized that the Lin Wang Mansion was killing a chicken to scare the monkeys this time!
But it was still unclear who was the chicken and who was the monkey!
No one wanted to be the chicken!
Therefore, soon, some people from the noble families began to surrender to the Lin Wang Mansion! They secretly sent people to contact the Lin Wang Mansion, secretly sent visiting cards, and promised to send a large amount of rare and precious things to the Lin Wang Mansion.
Those noble families who had united together in the past and threatened to make the Lin Wang Mansion surrender and give in, now scrambled to surrender to the Lin Wang Mansion without wanting to be the chicken that was killed!
The noble families were in chaos, and the Chen family was now in a mess.
The death of Chen Junru was undoubtedly good news for many collateral branches of the Chen family.
In addition, Chen Hongsheng was sentenced to exile, which meant that the position of the head of the Chen family was vacant. The main branch of the Chen family had no descendants, and the collateral children began to fight openly and secretly for the position of the head of the family, fighting bloody.
Linjiang City was undercurrent, and it seemed that a shadow was cast over the heads of all the noble families.
For the noble families, this period of time was full of panic and anxiety. But for ordinary people, they did not feel much change.
The daily life of the common people was not affected at all. In fact, after Chen Junru was beheaded, those former playboys from the noble families were influenced by him and became extremely honest.
Without these playboys who acted recklessly in Linjiang City, the public security order of the entire Linjiang City reached the most stable and harmonious environment in history.
…
In the early morning, it was just dawn.
A carriage quietly drove out of the south gate of Linjiang City and headed south.
The sky was hazy and not yet completely bright. In the distance, a ray of morning glow was slowly rising on the horizon.
After the carriage left the official road, it drove to a forest path.
At the forest path, four gray-clothed figures had been waiting for a long time.
The four people looked ordinary, with no special features, and were inconspicuous. But if you look closely, you can find that these four people have strong bodies, and their breathing is smooth and regular. They are all masters of internal strength and have good internal strength!
The four people carried bags on their backs, and wore swords on their waists. The swords were wrapped in cloth strips, which did not attract any attention.
The carriage slowly stopped.
"Master Chen, we are here!"
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Chen Hongsheng, who was also dressed in gray, opened his eyes in the carriage.
"We can only take you here. You need to walk the rest of the way by yourself!"
Chen Hongsheng looked normal, slowly got up, walked down from the carriage, and his eyes fell on the four gray-clothed figures in front of him.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
He said in a deep voice.
"I should go back and report!"
The coachman got back in the carriage.
Chen Hongsheng's eyes were deep, and his tone was slightly deep: "Go back and thank your prince for me!"
"Our prince said that he didn't help you, but he didn't want you to die too casually, that would be too boring!"
The groom spoke lightly, and after explaining, he left in the carriage.
On the spot, Chen Hongsheng and the four gray-clothed figures were left.
These four people were the accompanying officials who escorted Chen Hongsheng all the way to exile in Southern Xinjiang! This time, they hid their identities and escorted Chen Hongsheng to Southern Xinjiang.
Although Linjiang City is only a few hundred miles away from Southern Xinjiang, the mountain roads in Southern Xinjiang are rugged, swamps are everywhere, and poisonous insects can be seen everywhere, which can be regarded as extremely dangerous.
It is not easy for Chen Hongsheng to arrive in Southern Xinjiang safely.
The land of Southern Xinjiang is difficult, and those who have been exiled there over the years have basically survived. What's more, I am afraid that there are countless people who want his life along the way!
As the former head of the Chen family, Chen Hongsheng knows too much, and there are many people who want to silence him!
"Chen Hongsheng, it's time to get going!"
A gray-clothed figure spoke expressionlessly.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Chen Hongsheng spoke, retracted his gaze, and set off.
The path was rugged and the journey was not easy. Chen Hongsheng was not young anymore, and he was pampered on weekdays, so walking was extremely challenging for him.
The sun gradually rose and the weather became hotter and hotter. After more than half an hour, Chen Hongsheng was already sweating, panting, and out of breath!
"Take a break."
A gray figure glanced at him and decided to rest and replenish his energy.
Chen Hongsheng breathed a sigh of relief and quickly found a shady tree to sit down, breathing heavily and drinking water.
For ordinary prisoners sentenced to exile, there was no such treatment. Ordinary prisoners not only had to wear heavy handcuffs and shackles, but also suffered from the sun and hunger along the way, and were whipped if they walked slowly.
Most of the exiled prisoners basically died on the road!
But Chen Hongsheng was different. He was free to move and did not suffer any abuse.
Apart from the long journey and the need to walk there, he had not suffered any oppression.
Although Chen Hongsheng was puzzled, he thought about it again. He had fallen to this point and was still alive, which was the best result.
Although the conditions in southern Xinjiang were difficult, if he could arrive safely, he would still have some connections there. Not to mention making a comeback, but he didn't have to worry about a miserable end.
Just then, Chen Hongsheng suddenly heard footsteps approaching.
He didn't look up, as he was exhausted from the long journey. Until a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "Uncle."
Chen Hongsheng looked up suddenly, and a familiar young figure appeared in his sight.
"You, how come you are here?!"
Chen Hongsheng's eyes were astonished.
A young man appeared in his sight!
He walked slowly closer!
Chen Hongsheng stared at him, his expression moved, and a touch of uneasiness and solemnity flashed across his face.
It seemed that he didn't expect that Chen Xu would appear in this wilderness? !
At this moment, Chen Xu looked at his uncle who was sitting under the tree, looking embarrassed and old, without the high spirits of the past, and his eyes were a little complicated.
He always had a little awe for this uncle in his heart, even now, it was still the same.
Chen Xu put away the complex expression in his eyes, regained his calmness, and sighed softly: "I'll take you away, uncle!"
Chen Hongsheng stared at him, as if he realized something, and turned his head to look around. But he saw that the surroundings were silent, and the four gray-clothed guards who had escorted him disappeared at some point.
Chen Hongsheng's pupils shrank suddenly, as if he understood something. Staring at the familiar face in front of him, the nephew who looked harmless in the past. His face changed in a thousand ways, and countless complex emotions flashed in an instant.
Finally, it returned to silence!
He took a deep breath, his expression gradually calmed down, and he returned to his usual indifferent expression.
He stared at the nephew he once trusted very much, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Who asked you to kill me?!"
