Legendary Sequence
Chapter 227 Exposed
"Come on, take him down!"
Xiong Zhaolin gave an order, and several housekeepers rushed towards Wu Jiang... Zhuo Yan.
"Let's see who dares!"
Who knew that at this time, Zhuo Yan roared, took out a folded piece of rice paper from his pocket and raised it above his head, glaring at the housekeepers of the palace around him.
The confident roar made the housekeepers subconsciously stop their steps and look at the rice paper.
If this piece of rice paper came from His Majesty, then this person cannot be touched at will.
Not only the housekeepers, everyone subconsciously thought that this piece of rice paper had something to do with His Majesty of Daqin. After all, the only one who dared to have such confidence in a palace was the imperial edict...
Although the strength of the nine heterosexual palaces of Daqin was uneven, because they were the princes established by the imperial family of Daqin, they had a very important status in Daqin. Hitting their faces was equivalent to hitting the face of the imperial family.
So Zhuo Yan dared to shout so confidently, which inevitably made people think too much.
Xiong Zhaolin's expression was also a little gloomy. This rice paper didn't look like an imperial edict, but who knows if it was His Majesty's idea to find another way? For a moment, he was a little hesitant. "What's going on?" Dongfang Xiaoxin looked at this scene. Beiming Zhiyao glanced at Su Yian without leaving a trace, because she knew Wang Jingtang's background and knew that Wang Jingtang and Su Yian had some connection. Wang Jingtang actually begged for mercy so embarrassedly, which was quite funny in Beiming Zhiyao's eyes. He was obviously a battle-level magician, but pretending to be a weak person, which was definitely acting! Su Yian's expression was a little surprised and puzzled at this time, as if he was puzzled by the things in front of him. This made Beiming Zhiyao feel that Su Yian had nothing to do with this matter. Su Yian and Wang Jingtang might have some relationship, but at most it was the relationship between a junior and a senior. How could Wang Jingtang tell Su Yian about what he did! "You are still pretending!" Ling'er looked at Su Yian with contempt: "It was obviously you who planned it, and you are still pretending!"
"I can't help it, who made Beiming Zhiyao meet Wang Jingtang." Su Yian said. It was only today when Beiming Zhiyao and Wang Jingtang came here that he remembered that they had met once during the [Operation Python Slaughter], so he pretended to be surprised in front of Beiming Zhiyao.
"Beiming Zhiyao also likes you, can't you be honest with her?"
"No!" Su Yian said firmly.
"Hmph!" Ling'er sneered: "You bad guy, playing with other people's feelings!"
"I just taught you not to jump to conclusions, do you still want to be taught by me?" Su Yian's soul body glared at Ling'er.
Ling'er shrank her head and said aggrievedly: "I was just talking casually."
"Go back and sleep."
"Oh!"
...
Everyone in the Xiong family looked at this person who appeared, not knowing what the situation was. Xiong Zhaolin was also silent at this time, not knowing what he was thinking!
Zhuo Yan's eyes swept through the Xiong family, and finally fixed on Xiong Zhaolin's face.
"Master Xiong, King Kaiping!" Zhuo Yan took a deep breath: "I came here to seek justice, justice for what happened eighteen years ago!"
Eighteen years ago!
These four words were like a thunder in Xiong Zhaolin's heart and mind. In his slightly trembling body, there was a murderous intent that gradually spread out.
Lu Chengwang beside him had a strange look in his eyes. After knowing Xiong Zhaolin for so long, it was the first time he saw this man lose his composure like this.
"Eighteen years ago..." Lu Chengwang touched his chin: "At that time, Xiong Zhaolin defeated Xiong Xiaohan in the battle for succession and won a great victory. It seems that the matter here is not simple!" "Catch him!" Xiong Zhaolin uttered a murderous voice: "Catch him!" Several housekeepers rushed towards Zhuo Yan again, but——"Xiong Zhaolin!" Zhuo Yan roared in a hurried tone: "Other Xiong family members, don't you want to know the truth of what happened eighteen years ago!?" Boom! The surging air waves fell from the sky, pushing away the housekeepers who were surrounding Zhuo Yan, preventing them from getting close to Zhuo Yan. "Let him speak!" The voice was cold and silent, and a pair of eyes stared at Xiong Zhaolin coldly, while protecting Zhuo Yan behind him. "The fourth master of the Xiong family, the father of Xiong Binghua, how dare he confront the head of the Xiong family."
"Head, why don't you let him finish speaking before making plans?" Another voice sounded: "I'm very curious about what happened eighteen years ago."
"I'm curious too!"
"Eighteen years ago, it reminded me of bad memories. I also want to hear what he wants to say and what he can say!"
…
The voices slowly sounded, making the surroundings more and more silent.
"Second Master Xiong, Fifth Master Xiong, and Seventh Master Xiong and Ninth Master Xiong from the side branch..."
"What's wrong with them?"
Xiong Zhaolin swept his gloomy eyes over them, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he said nothing.
"Keep talking!" The fourth master of the Xiong family said to Zhuo Yan.
Zhuo Yan took a deep breath, but his heart was shocked. It was really the same as Su Yian said. There were so many people from the Kaiping Palace who stood up to protect him!
Kneeling on the ground, Zhuo Yan raised the rice paper above his head: "Eighteen years ago, Master was deceived by Tian Chao and came down from the Taoist sect and came to Kunyang City with some other people!"
"The purpose of their coming to Kunyang City was to kidnap Xia Ruoshu and her newly born son Xia Ruoshu!"
"Because the child had just been born, Master and his men succeeded easily, and then took this opportunity to threaten the former genius Xiong Xiaohan, making him lose to Xiong Zhaolin in the heir competition!"
"Xiong Zhaolin once led someone to rescue Xia Ruoshu, but because he didn't know that Xiong Zhaolin was behind the scenes, he took Xiong Zhaolin with him. During the rescue process, Xiong Zhaolin stabbed Xiong Xiaohan in the back and severely injured Xiong Xiaohan..."
"And he gave Xiong Xiaohan the Demon Sealing Powder, causing him to suffer heavy injuries in the successor competition the next day and failed miserably!"
"After that, Xiong Zhaolin broke his promise and secretly killed Xiong Xiaohan's wife Xia Ruoshu with his own hands. Because of the remorse in the master's heart, he rescued Xiong Chumo early and saved him from being poisoned!"
Zhuo Yan raised his head and looked directly at Xiong Zhaolin: "In the past eighteen years, you have secretly eliminated all the people you hired one by one. The master has also been on the run for eighteen years. Just a few years ago, you continued to send Tian Chao to think... I want to kill my master and shut up the last person in the world who knows about this!"
"My master is dead, but you would never think that he had written all the original events on this piece of paper, and he had his handprint as proof!"
"Everything written on the paper is true!" Zhuo Yan said in a calm voice: "Master, he has been here for so many years. Every time he thinks of this, he feels more pain and regret in his heart!"
"Before he died, his last wish was to make the events of that year public and let everyone see you, a thing with a human face and an animal heart!"
Zhuo Yan's voice struck the hearts of everyone present like a bell, and they felt dizzy and fell into a trance.
It was as if I saw the high-spirited genius boy eighteen years ago throw away all his dignity under the threat of Xiong Zhaolin and ask Xiong Zhaolin to let his wife and children go.
"Chu Mo, Chu Mo!" Dongfang Xiaoxin looked at Xiong Chumo who was in a trance with a worried look on his face, unable to hide the anxiety on his face.
The truth is often cruel. The uncle whom Xiong Chumo respected for eighteen years turned out to be his mother-killing enemy. His father's eighteen years of decline and the company of wine were all thanks to Xiong Zhaolin!
"Poof!" A mouthful of blood spurted out from Xiong Chumo's mouth. This was the blood of his heart!
"Chu Mo, Chu Mo!" Dongfang Xiaoxin quickly supported Xiong Chumo, looking at Xiong Chumo who had fainted with pity in his eyes.
"Xiong Zhaolin!"
A hoarse low drink sounded, and Xia Dengyuan stood up tremblingly from his position, his old face full of sadness and hatred.
As Xia Ruoshu's father, of course he had investigated what happened that year and was suspicious of Xiong Zhaolin, but Xiong Zhaolin's disguise was so good that he even gave up his suspicion of him for a time!
But now, the evidence is conclusive!
"Kill my daughter, you thing with a human face and an animal heart!" Xia Dengyuan pointed angrily at Xiong Zhaolin: "I'm going to kill you!"
"Just you?" Xiong Zhaolin snorted coldly: "You want to ruin my reputation just based on the one-sided words of this guy who doesn't know the origin?!"
"Fart!" Xiong Zhaolin said expressionlessly: "Back then, I defeated Xiong Xiaohan with a clear conscience!"
"What an upright person, what a clear conscience, worthy of being the King of Kaiping, so thick-skinned!"
"My lord, you can lie, but there is one person who can't!"
The person who stood up was Wang Jingtang. Wang Jingtang, who had just looked frightened and begged for mercy, now had a calm expression on his face, even sarcastic.
Xiong Zhaolin narrowed his eyes: "Wang Jingtang, you are very courageous!"
"It's not that young, but this person must be familiar to the prince."
As soon as he finished speaking, several men in black walked in with Tian Chao on their backs!
"My lord, you did kill everyone who was involved in this matter, but you forgot to kill one person."
"Tian Chao, the person who accomplished that thing for you back then, why did you ignore this insider?"
Wang Jingtang's eyes showed amusement: "It's because you trust him and think he won't betray you. After all, he is the person you trained and will be loyal to you. But now, it's backfired!"
Xiong Zhaolin looked at Tian Chao with sinister eyes. Tian Chao showed no signs of being beaten or threatened, but his expression was a little dazed.
Xiong Zhaolin clenched his hands and then slowly released them: "Okay, okay, okay, okay, great!"
"You can find out the old things from eighteen years ago, Wang Jingtang, you are worthy of it, but what is your purpose?"
"It seems that the prince has admitted it!" Wang Jingtang's lips curled up in amusement, and he saw him snap his fingers, and the few people holding Tian Chao suddenly fainted, but Tian Chao was also smart, and the trance on his face disappeared, Replaced by doubt.
"Why am I here?!"
Then, he saw Xiong Zhaolin and immediately knelt down on one knee: "My lord, was it you who called me here?"
The whole place was silent, Xiong Zhaolin's expression became distorted, and his murderous intent became even more intense.
"My lord, you are careless!"
