Chapter 789: Punishment for Traitors
In the flower hall.
Shen Qian looked like a mad cat, and Shen Yuan looked like a mad dog. The two men fought and struggled with each other, using ferocious moves. Where was their usual grace and dignity?
The surrounding clansmen were already in chaos. Several older uncles were trembling as they surrounded the two people fighting, shouting anxiously, "Stop fighting!" "Stop it! This is disgraceful!" Their voices were hoarse, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.
Shen Hang collapsed to the ground, coughing violently. The deep red finger marks on his neck were shocking. However, at this moment, a twisted sense of pleasure and secret pride surged uncontrollably in his heart.
He glared at Shen Zhuang, who was sitting in the main seat, through his messy bangs.
Even if you, Shen Zhuang, are extremely powerful, what can you do?
The Shen family has long been in disarray. As long as there is a little wind, they will fight each other to the death.
Why did the Shen family of Jinggang get all the good things? The Li family had promised him that if he could bring about internal strife within the Shen family, his children would be able to leave Xiangying and live a life of luxury in Country S, no longer having to waste their youth guarding an old, decaying house. His life was already coming to an end, so he might as well use it to build a bright future for his children.
Fight! Kill!
The messier the better, the messier the better.
Chaos and panic spread through the hall like a plague.
Finally, an old uncle with gray hair was pushed and almost fell. He could no longer bear it and stumbled to the main seat. Facing the rock-silent Shen Zhuang, he cried loudly with tears in his eyes: "Master! Master! Please say something quickly! No more fighting! If you continue, someone will die!"
Shen Zhuang, who had kept his eyes half-closed, suddenly raised his eyes, and a cold and terrifying light flashed from his calm eyes, like approaching thunder.
He first glanced at Shen Hang, then passed by Shen Qian and Shen Yuan and landed on Shen Qingyu and Shen Lanxi.
"Anger blinds people to judgment, greed blinds people to integrity, and the real conspirators often stay out of the loop."
Shen Zhuang's words were like a loud slap in the face, hitting Shen Qian and Shen Yuan hard. Both of them felt as if someone had grabbed their throats and pressed the pause button.
Shen Lanxi raised her eyes, Shen Qingyu restrained his expression, and they both looked at Shen Zhuang at the same time.
Shen Zhuang, "Grandpa taught you before that the Shen family's guns must never be pointed at their own people. Do you remember?"
Shen Lanxi and Shen Qingyu nodded.
Shen Zhuang was slightly relieved. "You are all good children. To prevent you from making the same mistakes as Grandpa in the future, Grandpa would like to add one more thing: the so-called "one of our own" refers to those who are on our side and those closest to us, so you must distinguish them clearly."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Shen Hang, who was lying on the ground. "Ah Hang, the Li family spent a lot of effort to get in touch with the second brother, how did you reveal it in just two sentences?"
Shen Qian would never question Shen Zhuang's wisdom at this critical moment. His eyes flashed slightly and he squinted at Shen Hang.
But Shen Yuan seemed to have grasped a lifeline, staring intently at Shen Zhuang. As expected, the old man saw everything.
Shen Hang never expected Shen Zhuang to be so perceptive. He was startled and shuddered, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. I..."
Shen Zhuang interrupted him, "What you call admitting your mistake means sending your child on a plane to Country S overnight?"
These words were like an endless tide that instantly submerged Shen Hang.
How does the old man know? Is his child in his hands now?
He no longer cared about the mission or the Li family. At this moment, he was just a father whose fatal weakness was grasped.
Shen Hang slammed his head against the ground, his forehead hitting the cold, hard floor. His voice became sharp and inflected with extreme fear:
"Grandpa! Grandpa, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! All my mistakes are my fault! I was bewildered, I have failed the Shen family, I have failed your trust! You can kill me or cut me up, I will not complain! I only beg you... I only beg you to have mercy on me. The children... the children are innocent! They know nothing! Please, please let them go!"
"Foolish." Shen Zhuang shook his head, his eyes full of pity. "Don't worry, your child has landed safely in Country S and should be taken care of by the Li family now."
Shen Hang's crying stopped abruptly, and he stared at Shen Zhuang with snot running down his face.
Shen Zhuang, "As punishment for your betrayal, your people will be expelled from the country forever and will never be allowed to return to Country A."
Shen Hang's eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and his reason told him that if he couldn't come back, then he couldn't come back. After all, if they went to Country S, they would be able to live a life of luxury like those of their tribesmen. Wouldn't it be better to gain both fame and fortune than in Country A?
But for some reason, the pity in Shen Zhuang's eyes made him feel particularly uneasy.
correct!
The old man just said 'punishment for treason', a punishment?!
Before Shen Hang could sort out his thoughts, he heard the worst news of his life.
"Do you know what your children will face when they go to the Li family? They will undergo all kinds of inhumane training every day. Those with talent will be retained and promoted, while those without talent will be sold as slaves to the royal family of Country S."
"Be a slave? Impossible?!" Shen Hang stared at Shen Zhuang. This was the first time he had such a bold look into the eyes of the old patriarch, but he could see nothing but pity.
"Perhaps becoming a slave of the royal family is fortunate, because talented children will be trained by the Li family to become death squads, leaders of terrorist organizations, or heinous criminals. Anything is possible, but it is definitely not possible to become a celebrity standing high and admired by others."
"No... Impossible... You lied to me! The Li family promised me... And my uncles and aunts, they also promised me that they would take good care of my child..." Shen Hang tried his best to refute, but his voice was as weak as a groan.
"Have you ever thought about why they are so eager for you to send your child over? Because only when your child goes there can he die in place of their child..."
As he spoke, Shen Zhuang slowly lowered his eyes, putting away the pity in them, and turned to look at everyone in the hall, "Did you all see it? This is the fate of those who betrayed their clan."
