Chapter 50: Kneeling and begging for mercy
Chen's manor, a big house.
Syllable!
The fifth young man of the Chen family slapped the seventh brother in the face.
The seventh brother covered his face, lowered his head, and didn't dare to speak.
His eyes were full of resentment, dare, and jealousy.
"I told you a long time ago that when you do these things, you must not expose yourself."
"Look at the good errand you have done, now the clan elders are already strictly pursuing, all the things about our targeting of the second room and one line."
"Okay, you Chen Shaoming, I never expected that your courage would be so big."
"The matter at the gate of the city and the gate of the inner courtyard is just that, a small fight, and it can't be put on the table, at most it's just a reprimand and a little punishment."
"But how dare you collude with outsiders and secretly ambush on the way back, who gave you the guts!!"
"Do you want to drag all of our big houses into the abyss!!
The roar of the fifth brother echoed throughout the large courtyard.
The subordinates and servants next to him trembled with fright, and they all bowed their heads.
Even the maidservants who passed by were slow to move, and their toes were light, for fear of making the slightest noise, which would disturb the fifth young master.
"I didn't! I didn't collude with outsiders, they slandered me!! Fifth brother, you have to believe me, I have always been in the yard, where is the opportunity to do these things. ”
The seventh brother, Chen Shaoming, heard the words behind the fifth brother, his eyes suddenly widened, and he retorted loudly.
In the tone, there was a sense of grievance slowly.
The hands covering his face were subconsciously put down, revealing the red five finger prints on the left side of his face.
The fifth brother didn't answer, just looked coldly at the eyes of the seventh brother Chen Shaoming.
And the seventh brother Chen Shaoming also looked at each other without showing weakness.
After a while, the fifth brother spoke: "I believe it or not, it doesn't matter, the key is whether the clan elders believe it or not, and whether Chen Shaoan believes it or not." ”
"The clan elders sent someone to investigate last night, and on the way back from Chen Shaoan and others, a caravan was looted, which was a good thing done by the black wind thieves."
"That night, the three masters of the Black Wind Thieves had already been arrested and interrogated harshly."
"It was concluded that someone had paid a lot of money to rob a convoy on the road."
"Although the three masters of the Black Wind Thieves did not tell any clues related to our Chen family, many clan elders believe that the object they want to rob is Chen Shaoan and others."
"In Chen Shao'an's complaint, it was clearly stated that he had been followed, and then he tried his best to get rid of it."
"The thief didn't go empty, it was determined that it was very likely that the Black Wind Thief might have robbed the wrong person after losing the traces of Chen Shaoan and others."
The fifth brother speaks slowly and logically, even in the current situation, he speaks clearly.
It's just that in these words, all the evidence points to the seventh brother Chen Shaoming.
After Chen Shaoming listened, the whole person was wronged to the extreme.
"Fifth brother, I really didn't collude with the Black Wind Thieves, besides, how expensive the Black Wind Thieves are, and I don't have that much money."
"Why did you put this on my head, fifth brother, you have to believe me, I definitely didn't do it."
Chen Shaoming was completely panicked, and as he spoke, he knelt down, pulled the fifth brother's trouser legs, and pleaded miserably.
The family rules of the Chen family are extremely strict.
Especially in collusion with outsiders and dealing with one's own family, there is no mercy to talk about.
Once verified and the evidence is conclusive, the lighter person will be removed from the clan and the cultivation will be abolished.
In the most serious cases, they will be put to death.
No matter who it is, it doesn't matter if it's the same.
Thousands of years of strict family rules are bloody lessons, cases, to maintain its majesty.
Syllable!
The fifth brother slapped Chen Shaoming on the right side of his face with his backhand.
Knock it straight to the ground.
"A guy who has no prospects, if he encounters something at all, he panics into this virtue."
"Since you know that you haven't done it, then there is nothing to be afraid of, even if you really have no way out, you can also apply to the clan elders for soul torture and return your innocence."
"It's just that I lost some of my cultivation, and my soul was damaged a little, but I can always bring it back."
Speaking of this, the fifth brother looked at the frightened appearance of the seventh brother Chen Shaoming, and comforted him:
"Don't worry too much for the time being, the three masters of the Black Wind Thieves are still there, and it won't be your turn to torture the soul."
When Chen Shaoming heard this, he was a little better.
He really couldn't figure out how things had become like this.
"Fifth brother, what am I going to do, I didn't do it to collude with the Black Wind Thieves, you know, Fifth Brother, I was with you during this time."
After recovering slightly, Chen Shaoming said with a trembling tone.
The fifth brother sneered: "What, you want to pull me into the water?" ”
Chen Shaoming hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, I never meant that." ”
The fifth brother sneered and said, "Look at things, don't just look at the surface." This time the matter of the Black Wind Thieves, with the ability of the clan elders, naturally understood that it was just a coincidence, and the theory of collusion was nothing more than nothing. ”
"Now that the three elders of the clan are in charge, Chen Shao'an holds the clan elder order of the three elders, and the clan elders will be here, no matter what, they must give an explanation."
"There are not a few people in the clan who have complaints about our big house, and my father is not here now, all of which have made them a little more courageous, and they have joined forces to target us because of this matter."
The fifth brother paused slightly, and then said: "The source of this matter lies in Chen Shao'an, what you have to do now is to immediately go to the second room to apologize and obtain Chen Shao'an's forgiveness." ”
"You have to put your attitude out first, only in this way, the clan elders who support our big house can speak for us."
Chen Shaoming hesitated slightly: "What if they refuse to forgive, or close the door and disappear." ”
The fifth brother said angrily: "Then you will kneel at the gate of the second-room compound, when to see you, when to forgive you and get up again." ”
.....
"Tsk, this guy has been kneeling for almost half an hour."
Chen Shaoan sat in the courtyard, looked at the gate, and said to the third brother next to him.
Through the gap in the wall, a figure can be vaguely seen kneeling on the ground.
The street at the gate of the big house and the second room is also one of the main roads in the inner courtyard of the Chen family.
Not to mention that people come and go, but there are not a few descendants, servants, and maidservants of the Chen family who pass by.
Chen Shaoming, as the seventh young man of the Chen family, is used to being arrogant in the clan, and now this appearance, many people can see it.
It's just that no one dares to watch, even when they pass by, they leave quickly, for fear of being remembered by Chen Shaoming.
After all, Chen Shaoming is the seventh, and above him, there are still six brothers and sisters.
"Fourth brother, why don't we forget it, they are all under one roof, and they don't see anyone who looks up and looks down on weekdays, it's too stiff, and it's not good."
"After all, it's too face-saving."
The third brother Chen Shaojie hesitated a little on his face and spoke.
Outside the door, Chen Shaoming, who was kneeling on the ground with his head down, moved his ears.
Chen Shaojie's voice clearly reached his ears.
After all, he was already a cultivator in the Yudan Realm, less than a hundred meters away, and with his full attention, he could hear everything in the courtyard clearly.
When he heard Chen Shaojie speak for him, Chen Shaoming's eyes were not only not the slightest grateful, but full of resentment.
The teeth are even more rattling, and the back molars are almost crushed.
