Chapter-35: the real thoughts of Shen Nuwu's father
When the tattoo work is done for everyone, they are paraded through out the capital city once in the morning time when everyone is out for work.
The guards specifically let Nuwu stand at a corner place where she would not be hit by rotten vegetables and other things.
Han Su followed and stayed close to Nuwu so that she would not be hit by those rotten vegetables.
Around this time the father of Nuwu found that she is his only daughter as the rumors about the appearance spread.
He quickly remembered the appearance of his butler that is mostly similar to his son.
The reason why he did not notice this before because he only saw this butler once and most of the time this butler is outside doing work for his concubine.
Well he is the butler or attendant of his concubine.
Also he is more towards job and power oriented that wanted to improve his rank in the court.
So he never noticed this.
But many servants have doubts.
Unfortunately they are all bought off by the concubine using the money from the dowry of Nuwu's mother.
So they will not tell the truth and work for the concubine to win over the position of the heir for the bastard son.
Now he finally found what is happening.
He was so angry that he wanted to kill his concubine, the butler and the bastard son.
But he understood that the number of people in his house that are working for him is far less than the number of people working for his concubine.
Even most of the guards are her men.
But they will not be stupid enough to support her directly.
This is because people bend towards benefits, trees bend towards sun light.
If he is dead then they would all listen to the concubine, if he did not pay attention then also they would listen to the concubine.
But when he is paying attention, they will all act properly.
Well he is the one that is paying their salaries.
Originally the salaries were paid from the dowry of Nuwu's mother.
Now things are different because the wealth is gone leaving the property documents.
They can still generate income but it takes time.
Now they can only work without pay.
Also most of the people are not working for salary but because of the servant contracts they have.
They can only get food to eat and nothing more.
If they get money it is through gifts or other meritorious services.
Official Shen quickly came out of his Shen house and quickly went to the city gate in a carriage.
Along the way he prepared many things and money for his only daughter.
He really wanted to slap himself because of what he did.
Now he did not have any one.
It is no different than dying.
He got to this situation because he invited an imperial physician to check and found that he can never have children.
This means that other than Shen Nuwu, there is no one else.
As for the situation with his concubine and bastard son, he will take care of it after his return.
Also he is planning to get the divorce certificate between Shen Nuwu and her husband from the Su family.
After that he would try to plead with the emperor to spare his daughter.
These are his thought when he is on his way to meet Nuwu.
He came to this conclusion because he could not have anyone.
If not he would not even bother to look at her.
It can be said that with this incident his official carrier will also be gone.
If he was cheated by his concubine for so long and did not care for his own daughter, what kind of moral character did he have?
Even beasts protect their children but he actually pushed his own child to the fire pit while pampering a bastard.
As long as the official censors impeached him, he will lose his job directly.
With no hidden wealth and official position, the land and shops he has on hand would fall into the hands of others quickly.
In any world the strong prey on the weak.
As long as he becomes weaker, the people he offended previously would play with him to death.
If he wanted to keep his life, he has to protect his daughter.
Then he has to find a way to make his daughter become the wife of another powerful person.
He doesn't mind the age difference of 30 to 40 years between them.
As long as he can keep his position safely, he doesn't mind sacrificing his daughter again.
He is going for her not just to save her but to push her into fire pit again with his own hands.
But he will not have this chance because Nuwu did not accept him.
Staying here is no different than dying.
She doesn't want to stay here but to leave here.
...........
Nuwu along with the other prisoners were escorted by the guards to the city gate on the north.
Now they will be handed over to the escorting team.
Because the number of people is close to 100 they have around 20 exile team guards coming along.
After coming here the cuffs on her hands were removed and all the females got their cuffs removed.
But the men above the age of 13 had hand cuffs.
While transferring the exile prisoners, the guards talked to the members of the exile team.
At that time they talked about Nuwu and told them to take care of her.
Naturally the members of the exile team already heard about Nuwu from the rumors.
When they looked at the beauty they are more than interested in her and they will take care of her and make her feel more comfortable.
They are also interested in many beauties of the team from many of the big families that are exiled together.
