Chapter 131 Questioning

Then he looked at Jun Moye.

"Jun Moye, I am your third uncle after all. I held you in my arms when you were a child. I must have felt sorry for you when you grew up and came to the Chen family. Are you slandering your own uncle like this now?"

What kind of character are the people in the Chen family? They always like to flatter themselves. Su Hanchu turned pale and spoke.

"Alright, Chen Wenmin, can you Chen family members have some shame? Don't you have any idea what your family has done?"

Jun Moye didn't even bother to say anything to the Chen family. He took out the rope he had prepared earlier and tied up Chen Wenmin.

Chen Wenmin struggled hurriedly.

"Let go, let go, what gives you the right to tie me up?"

Su Hanchu was shaking a medicine bottle in his hand.

"Chen Wenmin, your Chen family isn't the only one who knows how to poison people. I have a bottle of intestinal poison here. You'd better not touch it. Otherwise, in the dark, with no one else watching, it's not impossible that you will be buried with the fish in our rice fields."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenmin had no choice but to stop struggling. Jun Moye soon tied his hands and held him with a rope.

"Let's go, I'll invite you to Jun's house for a cup of tea."

In the Tianyuan Imperial City.

Emperor Tianyuan has been sitting here for half the night.

The eunuch advised with a worried look on his face.

"Your Majesty, you should rest now. If you don't rest soon, it will be time to go to court. Please take care of your health."

Emperor Tianyuan sighed and spoke.

"Zhao Ping, don't you think I'm quite a failure?"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Zhao spoke hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, under your rule, the people of Tianyuan have lived and worked in peace and contentment over the years. Your Majesty is a wise ruler. How can you say you have failed?"

Emperor Tianyuan looked up at the roof with a somewhat empty look in his eyes. Upon closer inspection, he saw tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes.

"But I am not a good father."

Eunuch Zhao lowered his head very low, not daring to look at Emperor Tianyuan.

"Your Majesty, I have served you since I was little. Others may not know this, but I do. You do love the Prince of Qin, but you have your own reasons for doing so. Furthermore, this incident is the fault of the Chen family. Your Majesty has done everything in your power to protect the Prince of Qin. If the Chen family had not betrayed the Prince of Qin's mansion, the Prince of Qin and his family would have safely reached the northwest."

Emperor Tianyuan looked at the roof for a long time.

"Go tell the Crown Prince to preside over the morning court today, and have him come to see me after the court is over."

Northwest Jun family.

As soon as you enter Jun’s yard.

Liu Shan came forward to meet him.

"Sir, Madam, we caught a woman and a young boy at the village entrance. We've tied them up and locked them in the woodshed."

When Chen Wenmin heard this, his face was full of worry and he spoke angrily.

"Jun Moye, what are you trying to do? Detaining villagers without permission is also illegal."

Su Hanchu folded his arms and spoke slowly.

"Breaking the law? Why didn't you think about breaking the law when you drugged our fish? Chen Wenmin, you definitely couldn't do this alone. Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

Chen Wenmin gritted his teeth and spoke after hearing this.

"I don't understand what you are saying. This is slander. You..."

Su Hanchu had already taken out a black cloth and signaled Liu Shan to cover Chen Wenmin with it.

"Chen Wenmin, it seems that your Chen family is still quite tough. You won't cry until you see the coffin. Then let me see today how tough your bones are."

Then he looked at Jun Moye playfully.

"My dear, so many of our fish have died. I am very sad. I must vent my anger today."

After hearing this, Jun Moye reached out and touched her head lovingly.

"Okay, play around as you like. It doesn't matter if you get killed."

Soon Chen Wenmin was blindfolded and dragged into a room, where he was tied to a bench and made to lie down.

Su Hanchu took out an ice-cold dagger and slashed Chen Wenmin's wrist with it.

"Chen Wenmin, your Chen family is vicious and has committed countless evil deeds. It would be too easy to let you die so easily. I want you to listen to your blood dripping into the basin drop by drop, letting you feel death swallowing you up bit by bit. Until all the blood in your body is drained, you will slowly lose consciousness and then go to the underworld to make amends to the Jun family."

As Su Hanchu and Jun Moye left, the door was heard slamming shut.

Chen Wenmin only felt that the whole room had become quiet.

Only the blood dripping into the basin made a "da...da..." sound.

When people cannot see, their hearing is more obvious. Chen Wenmin couldn't help but tremble, and his whole body was tense, as if every sound of blood dripping into the basin was hitting his heart again and again.

The pain in his wrist seemed to be gathering towards his heart, as if it were being gripped by the god of death. Chen Wenmin only felt the breath of darkness completely engulfing him...

In the Jun family's woodshed.

Tao Shulan, the third wife of the Chen family, hugged Chen Siran and huddled in the corner, trembling.

Chen Sibo leaned against the wall with a gloomy expression.

"Mother, did father do something to the Jun family?"

Tao Shulan hurriedly shook her head when she heard this.

"I don't know. He was acting strangely when he came back from town a couple of days ago. I asked him and he didn't say anything."

Chen Sibo spoke slowly.

"Father suddenly asked us to go to town to look for Uncle and his family overnight. Now we've been kidnapped by the Jun family. I'm afraid that Father has really done something to offend the Jun family."

Tao Shulan was so anxious that tears fell when she heard this.

"Then what should we do? Sibo, our family has finally made it to the northwest alive. How could he be so stupid? The Jun family has always been difficult to mess with. Haven't we seen it clearly during these months of exile? It's already good that they haven't come to cause trouble for our family. How could he dare to do something so offensive?"

The door suddenly opened.

Su Hanchu and Jun Moye walked in.

Chen Sibo hurriedly stood up, stood in front of Tao Shulan and Chen Siran, and spoke nervously.

"Cousin, cousin-in-law."

Jun Moye glanced at him.

"The relationship between the Chen and Jun families has been completely severed since my parents passed away. It is more appropriate for you to call me Master Jun."

Chen Sibo nodded slightly when he heard this.

"Master Jun, Madam Jun, we were suddenly captured here. What misunderstanding must have occurred?"

Su Hanchu spoke in a cold voice.

"This isn't a misunderstanding, Chen Sibo. We didn't interact much before, and after arriving in Guanping Village, I had no intention of causing trouble for your third branch. But your family is so ungrateful. Your father, under someone's instructions, poisoned and killed thousands of our Jun family's fish. Now there are basically no live fish in the rice fields, and even if there are, they are inedible."

When Chen Sibo and the others heard this, they were shocked and looked scared.

Tao Shulan exclaimed.

"That's impossible. This must be some misunderstanding. Madam Jun, our family has never intended to go against you. We also tried our best to avoid you during our exile. As for Guanping Village, you know that we have always been very peaceful and have never caused trouble for the Jun family."

Chen Siran leaned fearfully in Tao Shulan's arms, looked at Su Hanchu timidly, and didn't dare to speak.

Chen Sibo first calmed himself down and spoke with a hint of hope.

"Mr. Jun, Mrs. Jun, are you sure it was my father who did this?"
