The servant was responsible for pretending to sweep the floor nearby with a broom to provide support to the maid. He also knocked the female crutcher down with a stick, so he received a reward of five taels of silver.
Not only did the two of them get the silver, they were also highly praised by their master. Their faces were filled with smiles, which made the other servants envious and they looked forward to making achievements one day.
Unfortunately, several days passed and no one secretly found them and gave them the opportunity to make meritorious service.
However, the Black Kylin Guards managed to pry out a lot of information from the captured people.
The miners who were arrested in the mine were indeed the remnants of the Chen family, and had been secretly working for the Chen family.
After the Chen family got into trouble, they went into hiding and no one dared to reveal their identity.
Until the mine started recruiting workers, they received orders from their superiors, ran to participate in the recruitment, and became miners.
Not long ago, they received another order, asking them to hide gunpowder in the mine and then ignite it on the Lantern Festival, causing a fire in the mine and killing people.
Because the inspection in the mine was strict, they could only hide the gunpowder in the mine the night before when no one was there.
Wait until daytime when you go in to mine, then find the gunpowder and light it.
Unexpectedly, they failed to find the gunpowder they had hidden last night and were caught red-handed.
The reason why they were able to sneak into the mine smoothly at night was because they had people in the patrol team.
Of course, they were not missed when people were arrested at the mine before, and the two accomplices from the patrol team were also arrested.
These two people were not remnants of the Chen family, but they needed money, so they chose to help the evil.
One of them was a brother who lost money gambling and was in debt and needed money to pay off the debt.
One reason is that my son at home is seriously ill and needs a lot of money to save his life.
So for money, he became an accomplice of the remnants of the Chen family.
However, what they didn't know was that their brother had been plotted against by someone else, and their son was not sick, but had been poisoned.
The remnants of the Chen family did everything they could to bring these two people down.
When they learned the truth, they regretted it so much that they cried bitterly.
Unfortunately, it is too late to regret now. Although the conspiracy was exposed and no big mistake was made, it has been done.
They assisted the evil and almost set the coal mine on fire, killing countless lives.
You have to bear the consequences of your crime.
In the end, the remnants of the Chen family were sentenced to death, and these two were exiled.
I'm afraid I won't have the chance to come back in this lifetime.
Because of this conspiracy, the Black Kirin Guards arrested many more people, causing panic in the capital.
Fortunately, by the time the people learned about this, the Lantern Festival had already passed and it did not affect their celebration of the festival.
The few people who knew about this were extremely angry and had no mood to celebrate the festival at all.
For example, Taihe Emperor and the shareholders of Taiping Coal Mine.
As a result, not only were the remnants of the Chen family captured everywhere in the capital, but more Black Kirin Guards were also sent out to search for Chen Shou.
This made Chen Shou's life even more difficult.
Although he hid in the mountains, he would not be discovered for the time being.
But food will eventually run out, so we need to go out and buy more from time to time.
The search for him had finally been relaxed before the New Year, but now it has been tightened again.
Not only were people in the city on the lookout for strangers, but even the villages were on guard.
If this continues, people who go out to buy supplies will be easily targeted.
They must find a way to leave here and go to a safer place.
This mountain is not Chen Shou’s real base camp, but just a secret resting place.
Chen Shou was seriously ill before, and the search outside was too intense, so they had to hide here temporarily.
But they can't leave right now. The situation outside is too tense and they will easily be targeted if they go out.
Have to wait.
"Cough cough..." Chen Shou spat out a mouthful of blood uncomfortably, his face pale. His peach blossom eyes, which used to be so affectionate when looking at dogs, had now lost their luster and were covered with bloodshot.
