Chapter 44 A Traitor in the Chen Family? A Three-Hundred-Year-Old Ginseng in Hand! [Please Read On]

Yanyun County.

Chen family.

The meeting hall.

At this time, Chen Kun, dressed in a bright red robe, a black hat, and with a white face and no beard, sat upright in the main seat. A sharp and terrifying aura emanated from him.

There were six people sitting on both sides of the lower part of the meeting hall.

Four of them are elderly men in their sixties, and the other two are middle-aged men, namely Chen Kun’s second brother Chen Xiao and cousin Chen Yun.

Especially the four old men, although the aura they exude is not as strong as Chen Kun's, it is also extremely powerful.

"What's the origin of this Tianji Pavilion and Lord Baixiao? I've never heard of them before!"

"Why do you keep targeting our Chen family?"

"The key is, where did they get their information from?"

Chen Kun glanced at the senior members of the Chen family present, his expression extremely gloomy.

Yesterday afternoon, he summoned several core family members to discuss the annihilation of the Lin and Su families, but it was exposed by the Tianji Pavilion the next morning. He would never believe that there was no traitor in the family!
"Master, we are all the core members of the family here, so the news shouldn't be leaked! Could it be that someone from the Tianji Pavilion overheard it?"

"Yes, yes, right. Could it be that someone was eavesdropping?"

"."

After hearing Chen Kun's words, many elders spoke up.

"Now that the news has been exposed, we must change our strategy to deal with the two major families!"

"Elders, do you have any good suggestions?"

Chen Kun didn't dwell on the matter too much and spoke in a deep voice.

He was going to formulate another strategy, and at the same time, pay attention to the core members of the tribe present and find out the traitor!
noon.

In Yanyun County, the county government office was engulfed in flames.

Three or four thousand angry people, holding farm tools, surrounded the gate of the county government office, smashed and burned it. Deputy Chief Constable Ji Shun and nearly a hundred constables stepped forward, but they were unable to stop them and were directly overwhelmed by the angry people.

County magistrate Chen Hao and his legal advisor Ji Wuyuan disappeared.

"Fellow villagers! Under the protection of that bastard official Chen Hao, our children, our beloved ones, were all used as poison men by that old beast Li Hongfei and brutally murdered! No one can find them alive, no one can find their bodies after they die!"

"If the Tianji Pavilion and Lord Baixiao hadn't exposed the truth, we would have been kept in the dark until our death!"

"Ten years ago, my beloved younger brother applied for a job as a pharmacist at Tong Ren Tang and simply disappeared! My parents cried themselves blind and passed away last year!"

"If it weren't for the dog official Chen Hao, would that old beast Li Hongfei dare to be so rampant?"

"Fellow countrymen, the dynasty is corrupt and there's no hope for the future. With corrupt officials protecting us civilians, we have no way out! The current King of Jin is a benevolent and magnanimous ruler. Fellow countrymen, why don't you join me, Qi Shun, in taking control of Yanyun County, searching for corrupt officials and killing them, exterminating that old beast Li Hongfei, and welcoming General Li Jingzhong's army into the city?"

In front of nearly four thousand people, a middle-aged man with a strong build and deep eyes, holding a long sword in his hand, spoke with a voice like a bell!
His words are extremely persuasive!
Spread far and wide!

"Dog-killing officer Chen Hao! Avenge my son!"

"I'll use that old beast Li Hongfei's head as a tribute to my son's spirit in heaven!"

"Are there any kings, princes, generals, or ministers of different races? Submit to the King of Jin! Welcome General Li Jingzhong into the city! Make great achievements!"

"Kill that old bastard Li Hongfei!"

"."

Under Qi Shun's instigation, nearly four thousand people were so excited that they rushed into the county government office. Nearly one hundred constables from the arrest department were trampled underfoot!
Many people even rushed to the nearby street shops.

Yanyun County.

Near the turbulent Heijiang River.

Fifteen miles away from Heijiang, there is a maple forest with a radius of ten miles, so it is called Qingfeng Forest.

A mountain path about ten feet wide passes through the Qingfeng Forest.

It was the end of the year, and the ground was covered with yellowed, withered leaves. A cold wind blew, and the leaves swirled in the air. Qin Wang squatted behind a maple tree as thick as a large bowl by the roadside, wearing a hooded, yellowish coat that was so different from the color of the maple leaves that it was almost invisible unless you looked closely.

"It's three o'clock. It should be coming soon, right?"

Qin Wang held a dagger in his hand, and beside him were two medicine bags filled with sad and fragrant incense. This kind of medicine bag was made up of thirty-six kinds of medicinal herbs. Once it was ignited, it could make masters below the first-class level lose their internal strength and ability to move.

It contains flammable substances that can be ignited with just a flash of fire.

at this time.

Two miles away from Qin Wang, two horsemen were galloping towards him on the mountain road.

The first one was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with a sword hanging from his waist and a bundle on his back. He came riding along the mountain path. Behind him was a very sturdy man with a long sword hanging from his waist.

"Master, this trip to Qingyun County went smoothly and safely!"

Behind Chen Tianyu, the man in his forties said flatteringly.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Lin!"

Chen Tianyu nodded to the man beside him with approval.

Chen Lin is Chen Tianyu's cousin, who is at the early second-rate level. This time, he followed him to Qingyun County to buy the 300-year-old ginseng, and the journey was relatively smooth.

"咴咴!"

Chen Tianyu was sitting on a horse. Suddenly, the horse under him snorted, its front hooves softened, and it fell to the ground.

"what"

Chen Tianyu was caught off guard and rolled down. He wanted to jump up, but found that he had no strength in his body and fell to the ground. He couldn't even raise the internal force in his dantian. At the same time, he saw from the corner of his eye that his cousin also fell off his horse and looked at him in horror.

At this time.

A thin old man in his fifties, wearing khaki clothes and animal leather gloves, jumped to Chen Tianyu's side, pulled the package off his shoulder, opened it, and looked at it with satisfaction in his eyes.

"This person came here for this three hundred year old ginseng!"

Chen Tianyu looked at the old man with horror. He didn't expect that he would encounter robbers even when he arrived in Yanyun County. Now, he only hoped that the robbers only wanted money and would let him go.

soon.

His eyes showed fear and despair.

Because his cousin Chen Lin was cut in the throat by a dagger and blood splattered all over his face.

"Spare my life"

Chen Tianyu looked at the approaching old man and wanted to beg for mercy, but found that his voice was as soft as a mosquito's. He watched helplessly as the dagger cut across his throat and his consciousness gradually faded.

"Got the 300-year-old ginseng!"

Qin Wang looked at the package and confirmed that it was ginseng. He then searched Chen Tianyu's body and found more than 500 taels of silver. He immediately cleaned up the traces, cut out the eyes of Chen Tianyu and the horse, and left quickly.

The reason why this is unnecessary.

He had heard that people might retain the last image they saw before they died. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, Qin Wang decided to destroy his eyes. Although it was troublesome, it would be a relief.

night.

Seven o'clock.

Chen family.

In the backyard, in a luxurious wing, a skinny old woman was lying on the bed, served by four pretty and youthful maids.

"Chuncao, is Xiaoyu back?"

Old Madam Chen looked at the plump and pretty maid beside her, with worry on her wrinkled face.

"Madam, the eldest young master hasn't come back yet. He must have been delayed on the way."

Chuncao stepped forward and said.

I'm begging for more reading! I asked the editor today, and the reading progress for Xiaolong isn't ideal. I'm desperately pleading for more!
