Chapter 42: Being Plotted Against
Wei Furong frowned, and finally took everyone from the Su family out.
But he saw that the people from the Jun family had also been called out and were shivering in the yard. Aunt Li and Aunt Qian squatted down and held the children tightly in their arms.
Mother Cui and others stood aside.
I saw Feng Chatou holding a whip.
"Six people from your Su and Jun families are missing. Tell me, where did they go? Where are they planning to escape to?"
With a "crack", there was the sound of a whip hitting the ground.
Wei Furong quickly realized that someone was looking for trouble. While worrying about her husband and daughter, she tried to calm down as quickly as possible.
"Captain Feng, who said our two families are missing? It's just because Young Master Jun passed away, and the burial of Young Master Jun took up some time. It was also personally supervised by Captain You. Everyone knows this."
The people in other rooms heard the noise. The first branch of the Fang family and the Chen family opened the door and several people came out to watch the show. However, the second branch of the Fang family and the Tao family stayed in their own rooms.
The He family opened the door a crack and observed quietly.
Chen Fang spoke with a mocking voice.
"Oh, and you're personally guarding the area? Everyone knows that Su Hanchu and Jun Moye are both skilled in martial arts, and Su Lichuan was once a general. I'm afraid that they've already injured the captain and escaped with their meager skills."
Those in the Fang family who had a good relationship with Chen Fang also spoke up.
"Exactly. Su Hanchu also said that he would let us eat meat. I'm afraid it was all a lie. He wanted to use the excuse of burying Jun Linfeng to escape."
Chen Siyu also spoke.
"Captain Feng, Su Hanchu is treacherous and cunning. He must have escaped. It would be better to interrogate the Su family members thoroughly. After finding out the truth, we can bring him back and avoid implicating the other officers and causing punishment."
Chen Siting didn't say anything, but looked at Feng Chatou and nodded slightly.
Feng Chatou's eyes turned fierce.
"Beat them hard until they tell me where Su Hanchu, Jun Moye and the others are."
Aunt Qian used her body to block Jun Moyan and spoke with a pleading look on her face.
"Captain Feng, our young master and young mistress will definitely come back. They won't abandon us, so don't fight.
They just spent time burying the old master, and they should have caught up with us by now, and there is also You Chatou. Even if it is Feng Chai, if you don’t trust our young master and young lady, you should trust You Chatou who works with you!"
But the whips in the hands of several escorts had already fallen.
Wei Furong's first reaction was to take her youngest son and hide away.
"Captain Feng, you're not in charge of our group right now. Isn't it inappropriate to torture us like this? Why don't we wait until Captain You returns to discuss this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Chatou swung the whip in his hand towards Wei Furong with a gloomy face.
"How dare you avoid the punishment of the escort? Today, I want to see who is stronger, Madam Su's bones or my whip."
Wei Furong was unable to dodge and was whipped.
Su Yuanzhe pushed his wife Zhou Xuewei behind him and then stood in front of Wei Furong.
"Captain Feng, although you can punish the exiles if they make mistakes, that doesn't mean you can take their lives so casually. The weather is so cold, the children and the elderly have been sick several times, and their bodies are already weak. If you beat them casually like this, aren't you trying to kill them?"
Upon hearing this, Captain Feng's face became angry and he whipped Su Yuanzhe again and again.
"Good, very good. As expected, the Su family is worthy of being born into a military family. They are all very ambitious. Today, let me see how strong the bones of you, the sons of noble military families, are."
Cries of pain were soon heard in the yard.
"ah…………"
“Stop hitting me…”
“We didn’t do anything wrong…”
"Ouch, ouch, my old bones are about to fall apart..."
“Stop, stop…”
The people of the Chen family looked relieved. The Chen family had been bullied by Su Hanchu several times, and it was time for the people of the Su and Jun families to be bullied.
Chen Siyu even cursed under her breath.
"Beat them, beat them to death, a bunch of untouchables, they deserve to die in this cold snow."
Chen Siting stood beside her and spoke softly.
"Sister, I told you that Su Hanchu will regret this. When she catches up and sees the miserable state of the Su and Jun families, she will definitely regret what she did to you and mother that day."
Chen Siyu held Chen Siting's hand.
"Second sister, you have a solution. Even if Su Hanchu catches up, she can only swallow her bitterness this time. After all, it was the bailiff who punished her. Even if Su Hanchu has great ability, she can't go against the bailiff."
The screams in the yard continued, and some people even rolled on the ground in pain.
“Ah… Help me, I’m going to be beaten to death…”
“Ah, spare me, Captain Feng, spare me…”
“Have mercy, have mercy…”
Su Yuanzhe stood in front of Wei Furong and Zhou Xuewei to protect them, gritting his teeth to avoid crying out in pain.
There was blood on his back.
Wei Furong pushed her youngest son into Zhou Xuewei's arms, pulled Su Yuanzhe over and used her body to block the whip.
"Captain Feng, are you trying to kill so many people from the Jun and Su families today? Are you really not afraid of any consequences for taking human lives so lightly?"
Ning Cha Tou and Wan Cha Tou, who were watching the show, saw many people lying on the ground screaming in pain, some of them were bleeding, and some were protecting their children in their arms in pain, so they spoke up to stop them.
"Captain Feng, it's better to stop now. If everyone from both families dies, with so many people missing, it will be difficult for us to report to the Northwest."
Feng Chatou continued to swing the whip in his hand with a murderous look on his face.
"If you, the Su and Jun families, have any sense, tell us where Su Hanchu, Jun Moye, and the others have gone. Otherwise, I will beat you to death today, and that is what you deserve."
