The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 26: The Chen Family is Destroyed

"I don't understand what the general means."

Chen Gang's face turned pale, but he tried his best to remain expressionless.

"I don't understand. Maybe the extermination of your family a few years ago is not deep enough in your memory. Could it be that you don't know whether you are happy with all these years of wedding clothes or you have made wedding clothes for your enemies in vain?"

When Chen Gang heard this, his dark eyes moved, flashing with deeper emotions.

"I don't know what the general is talking about. What does it have to do with me? A person in the martial arts world has seen a lot of things, but it's just the extermination of a family."

"It is also possible that I did not explain it clearly enough, so you could not understand what I meant."

Knowing that he was pretending to be stupid, but after all, the words had already been said, Gu Junqing changed his position, stood up, moved closer to Chen Gang, and whispered:

"A few years ago, the Zhen family and the Chen family in Suzhou had been friends for generations. However, the Yu family of the past managed to make the late emperor believe that the Zhen family was smuggling military pay, but there was no evidence. When the Zhen family was preparing to clarify the matter, the entire family was suddenly attacked by misfortune. The Zhen family was massacred overnight. The Zhen family's house was separated from the Chen family's house by a wall, but the Chen family was safe and sound. And when the Zhen family was massacred, was the murderer really so powerful that there was no sound at all?"

After she finished speaking, she paused, raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Gang. Seeing that his face looked strange, she thought he must be confused, even shocked, about this matter.

She continued, "It must be impossible. After all, when people are killed, they will always make sounds to ask for help. Or, the Chen family heard it but just didn't help. It was so cold and indifferent that they watched a family being wiped out. What's more, the two families have been in contact all day long, and the engagement between Chen Yu, the eldest son of the Chen family, and the eldest daughter of the Zhen family was decided when they were young." Chen Gang clenched his fists fiercely. He opened his mouth and tried his best to endure. He wanted to refute, no, it's not like that. The Chen family is not as cold-blooded and cruel as you say. It's impossible! There was no sound at all when the Zhen family was wiped out. You are slandering!

...But is it really like this...

He began to doubt, based on what Gu Junqing said. Although he used the simplest way, his words were the most sharp and to the point, stabbing straight into his heart as if to make him bleed.

As he thought about this, Gu Junqing's smiling voice rang out again, and every word seemed to be lingering in his ears.

"Of course, not long after the extermination of the Zhen family, the late emperor knew that the smuggling of military pay would be difficult to verify, and he was so angry that he had to turn his attention to the Chen family. After all, they had been good friends for generations. As a result, a few days later, the late emperor sent Prince An, who was still a prince at the time, to assist in the investigation. Prince An was quite favored by the late emperor at the time. In the end, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple found out that the missing military pay was hidden in the basement of the Chen family, and the head of the Chen family also confessed that he and Zhen Yong, the head of the Zhen family, were responsible."

Smuggling military pay was a direct challenge to the emperor's authority, so the late emperor immediately issued an order to execute the entire Chen family.

Gu Junqing didn't say these words. After all, she knew it very well, and she was too lazy to continue telling the story.

"…But the late emperor didn't know that all of the Chen family should have been executed, but he was tricked by his own children. He used his power privately and spared the life of Chen Yu, the eldest son of the Chen family, and made him his pawn."

"Right, Chen Gang, oh no...Mr. Chen"

Gu Junqing looked at Chen Yu's face with a smile, and saw the panic on his face as he wished.

"How did you find out?!"

Chen Yu was shocked and cried out.

After all, not only did this incident happen a long time ago, but the investigation was conducted in an extremely low-key manner and was not made public to the people of the world. The people only knew that two families in Suzhou were suddenly wiped out. One family was wiped out by someone unknown in the underworld, and the other family was executed for committing a crime. The specific circumstances were unknown.

How did she find out...

Gu Junqing gave Chen Yu a strange look:

"That's not the point. Don't you want to know why the head of the Chen family dragged the Zhen family into confession, and why the Chen family did nothing when the Zhen family was exterminated? Or do you always believe that it was the Zhen family that caused the Chen family to be exterminated, and the Zhen family that caused you? Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"

Chen Yu stopped talking, his mind was in a mess.

Anyway, he has been exposed now, and the past events have been discovered by Gu Junqing. It’s no big deal. He just wants to know the truth of what happened back then.

When Chen Yu was suspicious, Duan Jun also handed over the things he had prepared long ago and motioned him to look at them. Of course, he also held up the evidence so that Chen Yu could see it clearly. He finally understood what Gu Junqing meant by making wedding clothes for the enemy. So that's it... So that's it!

But then he thought, what if he was deceived? In order to alienate the relationship between him and his master, he had to make him confess and tell him who was the mastermind.

Chen Yu calmed down and didn't quite believe these words and the evidence. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe it, but he didn't dare to believe it.

After all, a few days ago, I still regarded my master as my God and had great respect for him. It was my master who rescued me personally that year, and I could never repay him for saving my life. I had nowhere to go at that time, so I recognized Prince An as my master.

However, since it concerns his own family, it has always been a thorn in his heart that he cannot remove.

Of course Gu Junqing could guess that he would doubt himself. Since he didn't dare to believe it, he would let himself break the fear in his heart.

"Duan Jun"

She called out to the person behind him. Duan Jun understood and reached out to take out a brocade bag from his waist.

There was a red letter and a jade pendant inside.

Chen Yu looked up and saw that his expression suddenly became one that seemed to be neither smiling nor crying, which looked very strange.

"Qingling..."

After he uttered these two words, it seemed as if there was no sound of any further speaking.

With a bit of sobs.

Opening the red letter, Chen Yu could not help but lower his head because of the graceful and elegant calligraphy with flowers on it. The moment he lowered his head, tears fell, which were particularly clear in the candlelight. He felt inexplicably sad and helpless.

Gu Junqing's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.

"Mr. Chen, I am writing to you. When you read this letter, I will no longer be alive, leaving you alone. I am heartbroken and heartbroken. If I had not accidentally learned about the affair between my father and your father..."

Later, Zhen Qingling wrote a lot in the letter about how the Zhen and Chen families seemed to be on good terms for generations, but in fact, if you look closely, you can find out that the Chen family acted unscrupulously, even meanly, and always put obstacles in the way of the Zhen family in business dealings, and stumbled over the Zhen family's goods. In other words, the head of the Chen family was not good to the Zhen family on the surface, but secretly hated the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yong.

Why hate? That was the grudge between the heads of the Chen and Zhen families in the previous generation.
