Chapter 83 Ambush

"coming!"

The Black Bandits were hiding by the valley, looking at the long team in the distance, and they immediately became very energetic.

“According to the information I heard before, the Chen family is sitting in a carriage. As long as they are not wearing official uniforms, the people in the carriage are the Chen family.”

Hei Ge said with a murderous look on his face, "After we find the Chen family, kill everyone except Chen Yuan's daughter."

He also took out the picture scroll and said, "You can clearly see what a person looks like. Otherwise, you won't be able to recognize the person under your nose."

 …

“Hurry up, you can rest after crossing that valley.”

They have been traveling continuously for the past two days. Even at night, they rest very late and get up very early.

This not only made the prisoners exhausted, but even the government officials were a little unable to bear it.

"Snapped!"

 “Go faster!”

Suddenly, a whip was thrown at the servant of the Chen family, causing him to stumble. The servant turned back and glared, but the response was a whip.

 “What are you doing waiting around!”

The yamen servant didn’t care at all about the glares from the Chen family’s servants, “Go faster, you’re the slowest!”

People didn't dare to refute it. In fact, because there were some falling rocks ahead, the road became narrower and everyone was blocked together, so it became slower.

“With so many people, the carriage will not be able to move for a while!” Chen Yi endured the pain on his back and explained.

“Haha, it’s none of my business!” The yamen servant curled his lips, “Who do you think you are, being exiled in a carriage?”

 “Either leave now, or I’ll beat you until you leave!”

 Obviously, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this yamen servant is looking for trouble.

 But what if they knew he was looking for trouble? They were prisoners and could not take action against the yamen servants.

 Chen Yi bit his tongue, but didn't say anything else. The carriage would be unable to leave for a while, and they couldn't leave the master and the others behind and leave first.

 “Shua!”

When the officer saw this, he whipped his whip again.

"enough!"

Mr. Chen and others got off the carriage, "Let's go!"

 As he spoke, he walked with his servants without even looking at the yamen servant.

The yamen servant Chen Jia was stunned when he abandoned the carriage. He began to know that the Zhang family had always wanted this carriage before, but the Chen family had been unwilling to sell it even if the Zhang family offered a high price.

 Now you are giving it up so generously?

"Fool!"

 Thinking that they might have abandoned the carriage to protect their servants, they suddenly became more and more sarcastic.

However, even though the Chen family abandoned their carriage, he still completed the task given to me by the captain, and he did not expect to be able to complete it so easily.

Captain Sun quickly learned the news and came to the Chen family's carriage. He sneered. If the Chen family came out, he would have more powerful means to deal with them.

However, before that, let’s get rid of the carriage first.

 So Captain Sun looked at his men, who immediately understood and looked at the prisoner, "Does anyone want a carriage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man rushed over.

 “I, I want it!”

Captain Sun turned around and saw Zhang Yiquan walking over, covering his arm, which seemed to be injured.

 “You want this carriage?”

Captain Sun patted the carriage and looked at him.

"Yes."

 Zhang Yiquan nodded, he wanted it so much.

Ever since he left the capital, he wanted to buy the Chen family's carriage, but unfortunately they didn't agree. After several attempts, he never had a chance.

 Then he wanted to ask other government officials to help him buy it. As a result, those government officials were greedy for money and no trace of the carriage was seen.

During the previous riot, he had planned to incite the prisoners, kill the Chen family, and then occupy the Chen family's carriage.

 As for escaping?

Haha, he is not a fool, otherwise he would not be able to become the Minister of Household Affairs. He knows very well that escaping is impossible, and escaping will lead to death.

 So, he didn't even think about escaping. He just wanted to kill the Chen family and occupy the carriage.

It was a pity that an eagle spoiled him and scratched him, almost losing one of his arms.

Now he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to get a carriage, so he was naturally very excited.

Seeing Zhang Yiquan so excited, Captain Sun also smiled. This was good, he could make a blackmail.

“Five hundred taels, this carriage is yours!”

"What?"

Zhang Yiquan's smile suddenly froze on his face. He couldn't believe it and thought he heard wrongly.

"What?" Captain Sun's tone changed, "Do you want to give it to you for free?"

Zhang Yiquan wanted to nod, but quickly shook his head. Free is the most expensive. He still understands this truth, but sometimes he still can't help but be cheap.

 But he couldn’t make it cheap now, and he didn’t want to bleed a lot. “Captain Sun, five hundred taels is too much. I really can’t afford that much money...”

When Captain Sun heard this, his face darkened. He was already prepared to escape, so he planned to make a sum of money so that he could live a comfortable life after escaping.

 After all, there will be no chance to make money in the future.

 That's why he wanted to drive away the Chen family and use the Chen family's carriage to make money. Firstly, he planned to take action against the Chen family, so he forced them out of the carriage.

Secondly, you can use the Chen family’s carriage to exchange money.

Captain Sun did not answer, but looked at his subordinates. The subordinates immediately understood, looked at the prisoners around them, and shouted again.

“Whoever wants a carriage can buy it if he has money!”

The prisoners all looked back and saw that it was the Chen family's carriage. Many of them were curious.

Some people were gloating that the Chen family was finally in trouble.

Some people were tempted, and when they inquired about it, they found that they wanted five hundred taels of silver, and they immediately stopped thinking about it.

 For a while, no one came forward again.

 “Damn it!”

When everyone in the Chen family not far away saw this scene, they couldn't get angry at all. Xiaodie stamped her feet angrily, "It's so shameless. How can they be so shameless."

 Drive them away and then auction their carriages. How can there be such a shameless person in the world?

"Forget it, there's no need to be angry!" Chen Xue touched Xiaodie's head and pinched her angry face.

“We can’t defeat them, and getting angry will damage our health.”

"Then I'll stab them and curse them!" Xiaodie said angrily, obviously thinking of a countermeasure.

   …”

Chen Xue ignored her and looked at her father. Her father nodded to her, and then the few people stopped paying attention to Captain Sun and others and entered the crowd.

Captain Sun frowned when he saw that no one came forward. Five hundred taels should not be expensive for corrupt officials like them.

Even if their homes are ransacked, they still have savings hidden in three caves. It is impossible for everyone to be someone and penniless.

Mr. Chen: I always feel like someone is mocking me!

 Actually, these people did have money, but they didn't dare not take it out. They were worried that Captain Sun was trying to test whether they had money, and if they had money, they would rob it.

Secondly, they don’t believe that Captain Sun is serious about selling the carriage. When they spend the money, what will happen if Captain Sun doesn’t give him the carriage?

 Besides, this is the carriage of the Chen family. What if the Chen family comes to settle a score with them?

 They knew that the Chen family had a relationship with the government officials, and many government officials had been very polite to the Chen family in the past.

 With no one competing, Captain Sun could only look at Zhang Yiquan.
