Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

It's not that they haven't thought about finding an opportunity to tip off, but every time they have the thought of betrayal, they will have an unbearable headache.

They originally thought that they had contracted some disease, and they also took the opportunity to see a doctor.

But the doctor told them that there was nothing wrong with their bodies.

At first, the two didn't know what was going on.

After a while they discovered a pattern.

As long as they don't have the intention of betraying the Leng family, their headaches will be solved.

Gradually, the two of them gave up the idea of ​​leaking the information.

They didn't expect that their family members would still insist on having their own way. If "Zhao Xu" hadn't asked them to come today, they would not have known what their family members had done secretly.

"Hmph, a bunch of criminals dare to treat us like this. Let me tell you, if you know what's good for you, let us go immediately. Otherwise, if His Majesty finds out, you will definitely suffer the consequences." Lord Fang's mother spoke first.

"Yes, let us go immediately. We have already sent the letter. You'd better be sensible."

"Yes, let us go. Why do you, a bunch of criminal slaves, arrest us? We are the wives of officials, and we are different from you, a bunch of criminals."

"Really? Lord Fang and Lord Li, do you think so too?" Old Master Leng's cold gaze swept over the people who were tied up in front of him, and finally fell on Lord Fang and Lord Li who were shrinking their heads.

When Lord Li and Lord Fang heard their mother cursing at Old Master Leng and others, they were so scared that they broke out in sweat. Now when they heard Old Master Leng calling them, they could no longer care about anything else.

The two men stepped forward, bent their waists to 90 degrees, not daring to look up, and said with a fist: "Old man, please forgive the women in this family for being ignorant."

Lord Li: "Yes, old man, please forgive them for being women and not knowing anything about what happened between us."

Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Li were also panicked when they saw how spineless their sons were.

They always felt that they were different from the Leng family and the group of people who left their home. Although they talked along the way, they always felt that they were superior to them in their hearts.

After being captured that night, they thought they were dead, but later the Leng family sent a carriage to pick them up, so they thought these people must have been scared.

Even the friendly attitude they showed to them along the way seemed to them to be flattery.

As time went on, they naturally forgot the despair and fear they felt when they were caught.

Now that he saw his son like this, he realized that they had been treated so preferentially along the way because they had promised something.

It wasn't the Leng family who was trying to curry favor with them, but their son had sacrificed something in exchange for their stability.

Thinking about how they were just talking so arrogantly, I panicked.

"Grandpa...it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding..." Old Madam Fang put away her arrogant attitude and said with a smile on her face.

Old Master Leng and Li Tianze glanced at them lightly.

This glance made the people who were tied up even more at a loss.

They didn't care about anything else and just knelt down.

He kept begging for mercy.

Old Master Leng waved his hand, and Zhuang Chenxu understood and immediately sent someone forward to cover their mouths.

The crying stopped and the room became eerily quiet.

Lord Fang and Lord Li's heartbeats quickened, and they broke out in a sweat in the cold weather.

Just when the two men's psychological defenses were about to collapse, Old Master Leng spoke up, "It seems that Master Fang and Master Li don't need to travel with us anymore. Then you can leave tonight!"

Without waiting for Lord Fang and Lord Li to speak, Old Master Leng gave Zhuang Chenxu a wink.

The two men, along with the tied-up members of the Fang and Li families, were taken out of the room.

That night, under the arrangement of Zhuang Chenxu and ten soldiers, the two families left the city.

All the money they had wasted in these days.

If it weren't for Mr. Leng's help, these people would have been sleeping on the streets long ago.

It is precisely because of this that their arrogance is emboldened.

Now that they were driven out by Old Man Leng, they felt scared.

Although they were not killed this time, it would be difficult for them to reach the destination alive without the care of the Leng family on the road ahead!

"Son, what should we do?" Old Madam Fang was at a loss for a moment and asked crying.

Lord Fang no longer had the filial piety and respect he once had for his mother, who was confused and didn't even want to look at her. He said coldly, "You deserve it. Since you won't listen to me, you can do whatever you want next!"

After saying that, he ignored the people who were still standing there stupidly, and left the city gate first with Lord Li.

Now that the city gates are closed, it is impossible for them to enter the city. Although they hold official positions, their official seals have long been confiscated by Old Man Leng and his men.

Even if they revealed their identities, the soldiers guarding the city would not let them in without credentials.

What's more, they were escorted out by "Zhao Xu" and others, and it was specifically stated that they were exiles.

If they shouted at the city gate, not only would they be severely beaten, but even Old Master Leng would not let them go.

"What do you think?" Lord Li and Lord Fang asked as they walked together.

"What can I think? A good road has turned out like this, what else can we think?" She didn't dare to betray him and could only endure it.

Lord Li also knew that what he said made sense and nodded, "Forget it, it's better to let them suffer a little."

After saying this, they both smiled knowingly.

The group of people crying behind them saw that they had really left and ignored them. They didn't dare to stay and trotted to catch up with the two of them.

Zhuang Chenxu stood on the city wall, looking at the crowd leaving, and made a gesture to the person beside him.

Several figures disappeared beside him into the darkness.

Inn

"Kicked out?"

"Well, the people who followed have caught up."

"Okay, you should rest early too. It will be difficult to travel tomorrow due to the heavy snow, so we will just rest for a few days."

"Listen to the old man." Zhuang Chenxu now follows the old man's lead. As long as he says something that can be done, he will do it beautifully.

After Zhuang Chenxu left, Li Tianze said, "Zhuang Chenxu is a good person. Miss Leng has a good eye for talent."

"Who said it wasn't? This girl always manages to catch people off guard. If it were me, an old man, maybe..." Perhaps I would have already listed Zhuang Chenxu as my opponent when the battle broke out.

"The old man should be happy to have a granddaughter like this."

Old Master Leng smiled.

He was very happy, but also worried. This girl acted too arbitrarily and he didn't know what outrageous thing she would do next.

"Grandpa, I once heard a rumor from my grandfather, I wonder..." Li Tianze didn't know why, but he always wanted to verify the guess in his mind.

Old Master Leng naturally knew how much Old Man Li valued this grandson when he was alive. There were many things that even Leng Chengye and the others might not know, but this kid...
