Chapter 1891 Not Chen Bing's Children
Qi Lie paused suddenly at this point. Chen Bing, who had already felt the sky was falling upon hearing about the two-year prison sentence, was startled by Qi Lie's last two words and had a bad feeling.
The next moment, he heard Qi Lie say, "However, in this turmoil in Chenggu County, many rebels were involved. Constable Li was also one of the rebels. Your collusion with the rebels makes it hard not to suspect your ulterior motives..."
"My lord." Before Qi Lie could finish speaking, a scream suddenly came from outside, instantly interrupting him.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who is outside the hall, daring to disrupt the order of the court?"
"No, sir, I have something to say to my sister."
The crowd dispersed, and everyone looked back, only to discover that the speaker was none other than Boss Pan.
Pan, the boss, was sweating profusely. From the moment he heard that Constable Li was a rebel, he knew something was terribly wrong. If Chen Bing was associating with rebels, the final result would be far more than just losing money to avoid trouble.
There was a lot of panic in the city recently. Even if Boss Pan didn't know much about these political matters, he had heard that many people had been arrested. These people were more or less involved in the treason plot.
He never imagined that these things, which were originally far removed from him, would one day happen to him.
Associating with rebels, Chen Bing is truly courting death.
He doesn't care about his own life, but the Pan family is going to be ruined because of him.
Pan didn't care about interrupting the court proceedings; he only wanted to sever ties with Chen Bing as soon as possible.
Therefore, he grabbed the terrified Madam Pan and dragged her inside, kneeling on the ground and saying, "Your Honor, my sister was completely unaware of what Chen Bing did. She only realized what a vicious person her husband was when she overheard it. Our entire Pan family has been deceived by Chen Bing. We would never dare to associate with such a person again, and my sister does not wish to be his wife any longer. Please, Your Honor, grant my sister a divorce from Chen Bing."
Shu Yu watched from the side and couldn't help but laugh. The Pan family was quick to seek advantage and avoid harm.
Qi Lie looked at Chen Bing's incredulous expression with great interest and asked Madam Pan, "Is this your idea, or your brother's idea?"
Pan Laoda nudged Pan Shi, who snapped back to reality. She dared not look Chen Bing in the eye, but echoed her brother's words, "Yes, I want a divorce. I didn't know he was so cruel to Fang's sister. After hearing it, I felt a chill in my heart. If he can treat Fang's sister like this, he will probably treat me the same way in the future. I really don't want to live with him anymore."
Qi Lie looked at Chen Bing, whose eyes were red-rimmed and on the verge of bursting, with a half-smile, and said to Madam Pan, "Regarding the divorce, as long as both of you agree, I naturally have no objection. However, you still have two children, this matter..."
“I agree to my parents’ divorce. I’m still young, so I’ll go with my mother,” Chen Qiu spoke first, being the quickest to react among them. Qi Lie’s words made her realize that her father was implicated in a treasonous crime, a crime so grave that she, as his daughter, would surely be implicated. She didn’t want to be beheaded; she didn’t want to die.
Chen Bing was incredulous and furious, saying, "You unfilial daughter! Fine, fine! From now on, you are no longer a daughter of the Chen family. From now on, our Chen family will only have your brother as a son."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Chen He entered from outside the door, suddenly kneeling on the ground. "Sir, I have no relation to the Chen family. We are not Chen Bing's children at all." Therefore, Chen Bing's crime has nothing to do with him.
