"Chen Weimin!"
Bringing the two of them to the door of the cell, the jailer yelled into the cell.
Chen Weimin, who was lying in the thatch, heard the sound and turned around.When he saw Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, his eyes lit up and he got up from the haystack.
"The prisoner has seen the two imperial envoys." Chen Weimin knelt down and saluted the two, with joy in his eyes.
It can be seen that he has been looking forward to this day, and today is finally here.
"Do you think this is your sister?" Song Wuya didn't say too much, and motioned to the woman behind him.
The girl behind her looked at the man in the cell, tears streaming down her face.
"younger sister!"
"elder brother!"
On the way just now, Song Wuya was a little worried that they might find the wrong person.But now it seems that his previous worries are unnecessary. This woman is Chen Weimin's younger sister.
Under Song Wuya's signal, the jailer opened the door of the cell, and the brother and sister finally met after several months.
The two brothers and sisters looked at each other in pain, and their long-standing affection broke out at this moment.
Standing aside, watching the two brothers and sisters talking heartfeltly together, no one bothered.
Not long after, Chen Weimin wiped away his tears: "Thank you to the two imperial envoys for your kindness, for allowing our brothers and sisters to meet each other."
"You don't need to be grateful to me, I will try my best to do what I promised you. Originally, you brothers and sisters could meet each other as soon as possible, but the serious situation in Huai'an Mansion caused us to delay it for several months." Song Wuya shook his head , Did not dare to say anything without shame.After all, he almost forgot about it, and he just remembered it.
"Although Guanshan Restaurant has been wiped out now, my Chen family's great hatred is proudly avenged, and the criminals have no regrets in their death." Chen Weimin seems to be unaware that although Guanshan Restaurant has been wiped out, their real behind-the-scenes mastermind is not. Not arrested.One can imagine his gratitude to Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo.
But at this moment, Chen Weimin suddenly knelt down heavily: "There is still concealment before the offender, please forgive me, two adults."
"Huh?" Chen Weimin's sudden action surprised Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, but what he said surprised them both.
"You still hide something from us!" Bai Zhuo demanded angrily.
Chen Weimin, who was kneeling on the ground, lowered his head and nodded heavily.
Seeing this, Song Wuya frowned, and Bai Zhuo's anger, which was already in his stomach, suddenly flared up.
"What did you hide from us! Thankfully, we granted you, a criminal, the wish to find your sister for you." Bai Zhuo cursed angrily.
Song Wuya raised his hand slightly, stopped Bai Zhuo, and said to Chen Weimin calmly: "Okay, the past is over. What are you hiding from us, would you like to tell us?"
Chapter 997 The Concealment
?Chapter 997 Concealment
"The kindness of the two adults can't be repaid, and the prisoner is willing to confide the truth." Chen Weimin said with his head down.
He didn't dare to raise his head, afraid that he felt ashamed of the two of them. After all, they helped him avenge his family and found his sister for him.
Bai Zhuo was angry, but after Song Wuya signaled, seeing that Chen Weimin opened his mouth, he didn't lose his temper.
"Okay, get up and talk." Song Wuya told Chen Weimin to get up and talk.
Chen Weimin got up slowly, then raised his head, and guiltily talked about the things he had concealed from Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo.
"Our Chen family didn't join forces with Guanshan Restaurant originally, and it wasn't because we didn't want to be like dogs, but because our Chen family had already taken refuge in Wuliangjiao!" Chen Weimin frowned and hesitated. It took a long time to say this.
As soon as these words came out, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo were immediately shocked.
"What did you say?" Bai Zhuo couldn't help but exclaimed and asked again.
Chen Weimin lowered his head and said, "Our Chen family took refuge in Wuliangjiao before Guanshan Restaurant came to us. It is precisely because of this that we rejected the Chen family, which eventually led to the destruction of our family."
What he said made Bai Zhuo furious, before they thought that Chen Weimin was just a poor man who suffered from Guanshan Restaurant, but in the end their family's death had something to do with Wuliangjiao.
What was originally a disaster has become a victim of the dispute between Wuliangjiao and Guanshan Restaurant.
Hearing Chen Weimin's reconfirmation of this matter, Bai Zhuo stomped his feet angrily: "Okay, Chen Weimin, you lied to us. Fortunately, we still feel sorry for you in our hearts. I didn't expect that you are not worthy of sympathy at all."
"Okay, Brother Bai." Seeing Bai Zhuo yelling angrily, Song Wuya stopped him. "In any case, the matter is over now. And he has confessed to us, there is no need to scold him like this."
"Brother Wu Ya, you say he..." The anger in Bai Zhuo's heart was still hard to dispel, pointing at Chen Weimin, he was still very angry, but he didn't say any more angry words.
Chen Weimin was ashamed, after all, he really did something wrong.But in other words, under the circumstances at that time, he didn't do anything wrong, so he couldn't take the initiative to involve himself.
"Okay, you can continue." After Song Wuya comforted Bai Zhuo, he did not blame Chen Weimin, but asked Chen Weimin to continue in a flat tone.
Chen Weimin nodded, and continued: "Our Chen family didn't know about the relationship between Wuliangjiao and Guanshan Restaurant. We didn't know until later, but it was too late. The reason why our Chen family agreed to attach to Wuliangjiao is actually The same goes for the relationship with the Chu family and Guanshan restaurant, Wuliang taught us good conditions for the Chen family."
"The Chen family has a lot of financial resources in Yingtian Mansion, and they also have a lot of business. Although the Chen family is not the richest man in Yingtian Mansion, they are second to none in terms of land and water transportation. Wuliangjiao is exactly the same. He took a fancy to this, so he found our Chen family. After that, Wuliangjiao handed over the private salt business to us. But the good times didn’t last long, and it didn’t take long for the Chen family’s business to flourish At that time, Guanshan Restaurant came to the door."
Chen Weimin described his family's situation to Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo.
The things he stated were nothing more than what happened, to Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, they had no meaning at all.
"Then how did you communicate with the Wuliang Sect." Bai Zhuo probably calmed down, and although his tone was still a bit harsh at this time, it wasn't so harsh.
Chen Weimin immediately replied: "The Wuliangjiao is behind the scenes and is not directly involved in it. They are just protecting the normal operation of our monastic business. But this situation was originally good. After about half a year, I don't know what happened. Something caused our Chen family's business to fall into the schemes of others, and it plummeted. The private salt business couldn't continue for a while, but I later found out that it was because of the Guanshan Restaurant."
"Then do you still have contact with the Wuliang Sect?" Bai Zhuo asked coldly after hearing some nonsense from Chen Weimin.
Chen Weimin shook his head: "After our family was beheaded by all the sects, my little sister and I, who were still alive, only wanted to avenge our family, so we severed contact with Wuliangjiao."
Now there are only two brothers and sisters left. For Wuliangjiao, the Chen family no longer exists, and the two brothers and sisters have no use value, so how could they have anything to do with them.
It can be seen that what Chen Weimin knows is only some things that Wuliang taught in the past.In any case, this time was too long, and it probably wouldn't be of much help to Song Wuya and the others.
"So, after so long in the past, I'm afraid it won't be of much use to tell you what happened before your Chen family and Wuliangjiao." After Bai Zhuo understood this matter, he understood it. Now even if Chen Weimin gave some clues, it would not be of much value.
For this point, Chen Weimin did not refute, but nodded in agreement: "Maybe so, but the prisoner thinks that some of the things I know may still be useful."
"Anyway, let's listen to it." Song Wuya nodded and said.
Chen Weimin's words are still reasonable. Although a long time has passed, some things may not change because of time.
Chen Weimin went on to say: "The Wuliangjiao are very short of money, and their money is consumed hugely. The money that our Chen family gave them is a very big deal. But they didn't use these The Chen family felt very strange that money was used to make weapons. After all, if the Wuliang Sect wants to raise troops to overthrow the imperial court, weapons must be indispensable, but their money is not used for this."
"My father once talked with a leader of the Wuliang Cult. The reason why the Wuliang Cult spends so much money is that part of it is used to bribe officials of the court, and the other part is used to build a secret fortress."
"Bribe court officials and build secret fortresses?"
Song Wuya was very surprised by these words, after all, Song Wuya understood that this bribed the imperial court official, he had already considered this long before.But he had never heard of this secret fortress, and this was the first time he had heard of it.
"En!" Chen Weimin nodded and said, "The easiest way for them to overthrow the imperial court is to cooperate with the outside world. As for the secret fortress, it is the way out they have prepared."
