Chapter 48 Secret (Second update! Please subscribe)
As Converse spoke, everyone else's expressions also changed, and they were horrified. How did he, she, know her secret?
At this time, they still don’t understand that this is a threat. If they don’t agree, their secret may be known to everyone by then.
Thinking of this, they all looked at Converse.
Converse looked helpless and nodded to everyone, saying that he could only accept it, otherwise, the consequences would be serious...
Everyone shuddered and finally lowered their heads. Anyway, they were not shouting "I am a pig" in front of everyone. They were just bowing their heads to apologize. It was no big deal.
Soon, everyone walked towards Chen Xue.
Xu Tian saw them discussing for a long time and then came over. He suddenly became alert and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Even the prisoners around them looked over curiously. After all, a group of government officials looked intimidating from a distance.
So, they were very curious whether the Chen family had offended the government officials again, and some jealous people suddenly started to rejoice in their misfortune.
Some people expressed sympathy.
Of course, some people are worried.
Converse glanced at Xu Tian, but ignored him.
A few people came to Chen Xue, took a deep breath, and then lowered their heads, "I'm sorry, it was our fault before, please forgive me, girl!"
A group of government officials lowered their heads and apologized to Chen Xue. This scene not only shocked Xu Tian, but also shocked the surrounding prisoners.
They thought that these government officials were trying to settle a score with the Chen family and wanted to watch the show, but who knows what the outcome will be...
What the hell!
This group of government officials actually want the prisoner to bow his head, which is simply unbelievable.
They have all seen the ugly faces of these government officials these days. They whip people, curse people, and even extort people. Which prisoner doesn't hate these government officials?
They have never seen these government officials smile or lower their heads. They look arrogant and domineering all day long.
But today, what did they see? They saw a group of government servants bowing their heads like the Chen family.
Although the Chen family were high-ranking officials in the capital and well-known before they were exiled, they are now prisoners. Why do these government officials still want them to bow their heads?
Everyone couldn't understand, and they thought that Xu Tian was very kind to the Chen family before, and then Zhao Guang tried to please the Chen family. Now these government officials also want to bow to the Chen family. Is it possible...
Is it possible that the Chen family is about to revolt?
impossible!
Although many of them knew that Chen Yuan was framed, after all, when they were a group of corrupt people, how could they not know who the "filial piety" was.
In short, the Chen family and them are not "the same group" anyway.
Looking at the attitude of these government officials now, it is obvious that something is wrong.
There is only one way to bow to the Chen family, that is, they cannot afford to offend the Chen family, and the Chen family is already a criminal, so what can they not afford to offend?
The most likely possibility is that Chen Yuan might be redressed, then rise again and regain power. Only in this way can we explain why these government servants bowed their heads to the Chen family.
For a moment, everyone had mixed feelings, some were envious, and some were unwilling. Why are everyone the criminals, but the Chen family...well, although the Chen family was unjustly accused, everyone was still a little unwilling.
But they knew very well that if things were really what they guessed, they would not offend the Chen family. On the contrary, they would try to please them as much as possible.
At this time, they were a little lucky. Although they were jealous of the Chen family before, they did not ridicule or offend them.
I heard that the Zhang family offended the Chen family very much. I wonder if they will regret it.
No one knows that the Zhang family has no regrets, but they can no longer protect themselves at this time. After the last time they came out of the inn, Zhang Yiquan fell ill and almost died.
Zhang Yiquan fell ill, and the Zhang family suddenly panicked. After all, Zhang Yiquan was the pillar of the Zhang family.
It's just that if there is a doctor among the exiled team, it is impossible for the government officials to let them leave to find a doctor, let alone help them find a doctor.
Had it not been for Zhang Yiquan and his mother who knew some folk remedies to rescue him, he might have been the first prisoner to die in the entire exile team.
Of course, this was also thanks to the sudden requirement to collect medicinal materials among the exiled team, which gave them the opportunity to search for medicinal materials in the woods and rescue Zhang Yiquan.
Although Zhang Yiquan has recovered from his illness, he is still very weak, so he has never had time to trouble the Chen family, let alone what the Chen family is doing now.
Let’s get back to business.
While everyone was shocked by the government officials' behavior, the government officials looked at Chen Xue anxiously, waiting for her answer.
“You think this compensation is enough? What is my girl’s status? Even though she is in dire straits now, she is not someone you can bully.”
A dissatisfied voice sounded from beside Chen Xue, expressing her feelings for her.
Chen Xue turned around and saw Xiaodie who had appeared out of nowhere, and was a little surprised, "Xiaodie? Why are you here? When did you come?"
"I've been here for a while. Because the girl and the master haven't come back for so long, my wife is a little worried, so she asked me to come and take a look."
Speaking, Xiaodie patted her chest and said proudly, "Don't worry, girl, I'm here and I won't let others bully you."
Chen Xue was both touched and a little amused. Xiaodie is younger than herself, so it's not certain who will protect whom?
However, she came just in time, and she was able to say some things that were inconvenient for me to say.
No wonder many people want to have loyal and smart subordinates, which sometimes really saves trouble.
As soon as Xiaodie's words came out, Converse and others' expressions suddenly changed, but the next second, her words made everyone feel cold.
"Don't think that we don't know that you still have a lot of money, so you just use this to send the beggars away!"
Converse and others' hearts sank, thinking that Chen Xue even knew their secrets, and it was normal to know how much money they had.
Just when they were struggling, they saw Chen Xue raising her hand as if she was about to snap her fingers. Converse and others' expressions suddenly changed.
That’s it, that’s all, just spend the money to eliminate the disaster!
So they took out all the money they had and handed it over, "We were wrong, please show mercy to Miss Chen!"
By Chen Xue, the clever Xiaodie stepped forward to collect their money, quickly ran back to Chen Xue, and handed the money to her.
Chen Xue weighed it and found that it was yes, it was a few hundred taels. They must have blackmailed a lot these days, but now it was easier for her.
"Okay, this matter ends here, if you..."
Before Chen Xue finished her threatening words, Converse and others said anxiously, "No, absolutely not. Please don't worry, Ms. Chen, we will definitely act honestly."
"get out!"
"Why!"
Converse and the others were waiting for these words. After hearing this, they turned around and ran away, faster than a rabbit.
“Just let them go like this?” Xu Tian walked over unwillingly, feeling that letting Converse and others leave like this would be too easy for them.
As for Chen Xue asking them to compensate for the loss and taking so much money from them, Xu Tian was not jealous and felt that it was natural.
"Otherwise? It's impossible to kill them!" Chen Xue shrugged, "Do you think they will really fulfill the bet? What if they die together if they are pushed to death?"
Xu Tian was speechless.
Chen Xue touched her nose and said so, but that was just to deceive Xu Tian. The real reason was actually similar, except that she wanted to hold Converse and others' leverage so that Converse and others would not look for it in the future. They are troublesome, just like Zhao Guang.
At that time, all the government officials in the exile team would not dare to do anything to them, and would even protect them. Then they would not have to hide, and they could be exiled in style.
“It’s already very cheap for them.” Mr. Chen sneered.
Xu Tian felt a sudden change in his heart. He knew that Mr. Chen had expressed his intention to kill Converse several times. If he did, it would really be an advantage for them now.
