Chapter 227: Expose

"Someone, take him down!"

Xiong Zhaolin gave an order, and several housekeepers rushed toward Wujiang...Zhuo Yan.

"Let's see who dares!"

Unexpectedly, 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 palace stewards around him.

The confident roar made the housekeepers subconsciously stop and look at the rice paper.

If this rice paper comes from His Majesty, then you cannot touch this person at will.

Not just the housekeeper, but everyone subconsciously believed that this piece of rice paper was related to His Majesty the Qin Dynasty. After all, who dared to have such confidence in a palace, the only thing left was the imperial edict...

Although the strength of the nine opposite-sex princes in Great Qin is uneven, because they are princes established by the Imperial House of Great Qin, they have a very important status in Great Qin. Slapping them in the face is equivalent to slapping the Imperial Household in the face.

So Zhuo Yan dared to shout so confidently, which inevitably made people think too much.

Xiong Zhaolin's expression was also a little gloomy, and the rice paper didn't look like an imperial edict, but who knew if His Majesty had another idea?

For a moment, he hesitated.

"What's going on?" Dongfang Xiaoxin looked at this scene.

Beiming Zhiyao glanced at Su Yian without leaving any trace, because she knew Wang Jingtang's origin and also knew that Wang Jingtang and Su Yian had some kind of connection.

The fact that Wang Jingtang begged for mercy so embarrassingly was quite funny in the eyes of Bei Ming Zhiyao. He was obviously a battle-level magician, but he pretended to be a weakling. It was definitely an act!

Su Yian's expression was a little surprised and confused at this time, as if he was confused about what was happening in front of him.

This made Beiming Zhiyao feel that Su Yian had nothing to do with this matter, and that Su Yian and Wang Jingtang might have some kind of relationship, but at most it was just a relationship between a junior and a senior. How could Wang Jingtang tell Su Yian what he was doing!

"You're still pretending!" Ling'er looked at Su Yian with contempt: "It's obviously you who planned it, and you're still pretending!"

"There is no way, who let Beiming Zhiyao meet Wang Jingtang." Su Yian said, it was only today that Beiming Zhiyao and Wang Jingtang came here and he remembered that they had met once during [Operation Python Slaughter] , and then he pretended to be surprised in front of Beiming Zhiyao.

"Renbei Ming Zhiyao also likes you, can't you confess to her?"

"No!" Su Yian said firmly.

"Hmph!" Ling'er sneered: "You are a bad person, playing with other people's feelings!"

"I just taught you not to jump to conclusions casually. Do you still want to be educated 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 to sleep."

"oh!"

…

Everyone in the Xiong family looked at this person who appeared and wondered what was going on. Xiong Zhaolin was also silent at this time, wondering what he was thinking!

Zhuo Yan's eyes swept across the Xiong family, and finally settled on Xiong Zhaolin's face.

"Master Xiong, King Kaiping!" Zhuo Yan took a deep breath: "I am here to seek justice for what happened eighteen years ago!"

Eighteen years ago!

These four words were like thunder exploding in Xiong Zhaolin's heart and brain. A bone-chilling murderous intention gradually spread out of his slightly trembling body.

Lu Chengwang, who was beside him, had a strange look in his eyes. In the long time he and Xiong Zhaolin had known each other, this was the first time he had seen this man so rude.

"Eighteen years ago..." Lu Chengwang touched his chin: "At that time, Xiong Zhaolin defeated Xiong Xiaohan in the battle for the successor and won a great victory. It seems that things here are not simple!"

"Take him down!" A voice filled with murderous intent came out of Xiong Zhaolin's mouth: "Take him down!"

Several housekeepers rushed towards Zhuo Yan again, but——

"Xiong Zhaolin!" Zhuo Yan roared angrily, his tone urgent: "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 and rushed away the housekeepers surrounding Zhuo Yan, preventing them from getting close to Zhuo Yan.

"Let him say it!"

The voice was cold and silent, and a pair of cold eyes stared at Xiong Zhaolin while protecting Zhuo Yan behind him.

"The fourth master of the Xiong family, Xiong Binghua's father, how dare he confront the head of the Xiong family."

"Master, why don't you let him finish talking before making plans?" Another voice said: "I'm very curious about what happened eighteen years ago."

"I'm quite 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!"

…

One voice after another slowly sounded, making the surroundings become increasingly quiet.

"Second Master Xiong, Fifth Master, and the seventh and ninth masters from the collateral lineage..."

"What happened to them?"

Xiong Zhaolin's gloomy gaze swept over them, with murderous intent condensing in his eyes without saying a word.

"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 exactly what Su Yian said, and so many people from the Kaiping Palace stood up to protect him!

Kneeling on the ground, Zhuo Yan raised the rice paper above his head: "Eighteen years ago, the master was deceived by Tian Chao and came down the mountain from Daomen to Kunyang City with some other people!"

"Their purpose of coming to Kunyang City is to kidnap Xia Ruoshu and her recently born son Xia Ruoshu!"

"Because they had just given birth to a child, Master and the others succeeded easily, and then took this opportunity to threaten the former genius Xiong Xiaohan and make him lose to Xiong Zhaolin in the heir competition!"

"Xiong Zhaolin once led people to rescue Xia Ruoshu, but because they didn't know that Xiong Zhaolin was the mastermind, they took Xiong Zhaolin with them. During the rescue process, Xiong Zhaolin stabbed Xiong Xiaohan in the back..."

"And he gave Xiong Xiaohan the Demon Sealing Powder, which caused him to suffer heavy damage in the successor competition the next day and return in defeat!"

"Afterwards, Xiong Zhaolin broke his promise and secretly killed Xiong Xiaohan's wife Xia Ruoshu. Because of the regret in the master's heart, he saved Xiong Chumo in advance, which saved him from the murderous hand!"

Zhuo Yan raised his head and looked directly at Xiong Zhaolin: "In the past eighteen years, the people you hired were secretly eliminated one by one, and the master also fled for eighteen years. Just a while ago , you keep sending Tian Chao to kill my master, let the last person in the world who knows about this shut up! "

"My master is dead, but you never thought that he had written all the things on this piece of paper, and there is his handprint as evidence! "

"Every word written on the paper is true!" Zhuo Yan said in a steady voice: "Master, every time he thinks of this matter over the years, he feels more pain and regret in his heart!"

"Before his death, his last wish was to make the matter public, so that everyone can see you are a beast in human form!"

Zhuo Yan's voice struck the hearts of everyone present like a huge bell, and a dizzy feeling came over them, and they were in a trance.

It seemed as if they saw the talented young man who was full of vigor and vitality 18 years ago throw away all his dignity under the threat of Xiong Zhaolin, and let Xiong Zhaolin let his wife and children go.

"Chu Mo, Chu Mo!" Dongfang Xiaoxin looked at Xiong Chu Mo with a trance-like expression with a worried look, and the anxiety on his face could not be concealed.

The truth is often cruel. The uncle whom Xiong Chumo respected for eighteen years turned out to be the murderer of his mother. His father's eighteen years of poverty and drinking were also caused by Xiong Zhaolin!

"Puff!" A mouthful of blood spurted out of Xiong Chumo's mouth. This was his heart's blood!

"Chumo, Chumo!" Dongfang Xiaoxin hurriedly supported Xiong Chumo, looking at the fainted Xiong Chumo with pity in her eyes.

"Xiong Zhaolin!"

A hoarse low voice sounded, and Xia Dengyuan stood up tremblingly from his position, his old face full of sadness and hatred.

As Xia Ruoshu's father, he certainly investigated the incident and suspected Xiong Zhaolin, but Xiong Zhaolin disguised himself so well that he even dispelled his suspicion of him for a time!

But now, the evidence is conclusive!

"Kill my daughter, you beast in human form!" Xia Dengyuan pointed at Xiong Zhaolin angrily: "I will kill you!"

"Just you?" Xiong Zhaolin snorted coldly: "Just relying on this one-sided statement of unknown origin, you want to ruin my reputation?!"

"Bullshit!" Xiong Zhaolin expressionless: "I defeated Xiong Xiaohan in an upright manner back then, and I have a clear conscience!"

"What an upright and clear conscience, worthy of being the King of Kaiping, thick-skinned enough!"

"Your Majesty, you can lie, but there is one person who can't!"

The one who stood up was Wang Jingtang. Wang Jingtang, who had just begged for mercy with a face full of fear, now had a calm face and even a hint of sarcasm.

Xiong Zhaolin narrowed his eyes: "Wang Jingtang, you are quite courageous!"

"Yes, but this person is familiar to your Majesty."

As soon as the voice fell, several men in black clothes carried Tian Chao in!

"Your Highness, you did kill everyone who participated in this incident, but you forgot to kill one person."

"Tian Chao, the person who did it for you, why did you ignore this insider?"

Wang Jingtang's eyes were full of amusement: "Because you trust him and think he won't betray you, right? After all, he is the person you trained, and he will definitely be loyal to you, but now, things are not going as you wish!"

Xiong Zhaolin looked at Tian Chao with sinister eyes. Tian Chao had no signs of being beaten or threatened, but his expression was a little dazed.

Xiong Zhaolin clenched his hands, then slowly released them: "Okay, okay, okay, very good!"

"You can find out the old things from 18 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 mouth was curled with amusement, and he saw him snap his fingers, and the people holding Tian Chao suddenly fainted, and Tian Chao was also smart, the trance on his face disappeared, replaced by doubts.

"Why am I here?!"

Then, he saw Xiong Zhaolin and immediately knelt on one knee: "Prince, did you call me here?"

The whole place was silent, Xiong Zhaolin's expression twisted, and his murderous intent became stronger.

"Prince, you are careless!"
