Heaven Extinction Martial Emperor

Chapter 1167: Inverting black and white (Part 1)

the Liang Prince is extremely wary of this and specially sent his trusted aide over to investigate. He also removed me from Xia qingchen’s faction to prevent me from taking the opportunity to create trouble.

Qiu wanjin understood the logic behind this and sighed deeply. since ancient times, the king has always been afraid of overpowering his Lord with great achievements. Not only did master Xia have great achievements, but he also has a much higher prestige in the southern border.

“It would be fine if Prince Liang was a wise sovereign, but he has never been a magnanimous sovereign. It would be strange if he didn’t send someone to investigate.”

He couldn’t help but regret inviting Xia qingchen to the Chamber of Commerce, causing him such great trouble.

“AI! We’ve given young master Xia more trouble.” Wu Xiong sighed. He was no longer in the mood to care about his position. He was more worried about Xia qingchen.

His relationship with the Prince of Liang had never been very harmonious. Now that the people of the southern border were worshiping Him like a god, the gap between him and the Prince of Liang would probably only grow wider.

Just as he was sighing, the Butler at the door ran in hurriedly. my Lord, something bad has happened. A man who claims to be the servant of the special envoy has come to inform us that the special envoy is about to arrive.

On the contrary, Wu Xiong’s expression was calm. He had already prepared himself mentally.”I’ll go welcome them.”

Accompanied by his wife, daughter, and Qiu wanjin, they arrived at the entrance of the residence and silently waited for the arrival of the special envoy.

They had been waiting for four hours.

The heavy rain continued to pour, and the cold air from the rain made their faces freeze, and their hearts turn cold.

Da da da-

The sound of horse hooves broke the heavy curtain of rain. Several bright horses rushed over. Behind the horses were guards standing in a line. They were all holding white umbrellas, and their bodies were wet from the rain.

The guards lined up from the end of his line of sight all the way to the entrance of the mansion.

“Welcome, my Lord!” They shouted in unison.

At the end of his line of sight, an old man in a gray robe holding a horsetail whisk walked down from a large sedan carried by 18 people. He had an extraordinary bearing, but his face was thin and he looked slightly mean.

He strode forward, walking on the path made up of many umbrellas, and arrived at the entrance of the manor without a single drop of rain on him.

Wu Xiong immediately knelt down on one knee,”I, Wu Xiong, am here to welcome daozi Chan.”

The newcomer was none other than the Prince of Liang’s trusted aide, Chan daozi.

In the immortal devil city, he had once failed to force the cloudmist battle group to return to their ranks and had ordered the execution of everyone in the cloudmist battle group.

Today, he once again carried the king’s order and came to the capital of the southern border, the southern heaven city.

“Wu Xiong, receive the decree!” Chan daozi took out a scroll and announced, ” as a general, Wu Xiong colluded with the local merchants, persecuted his competitors, and disrupted the local order, causing the public’s resentment to boil. He was removed from his position as a general, stripped of his military status, and demoted to a commoner.

Wu Xiong’s heart turned cold. He felt somewhat sad, sorrowful, and resentful.

What did he mean by colluding with the local merchants to persecute his competitors?

Who had he persecuted?

Even the Wu family who had driven him away that year, he had not harmed them. As for the so-called public resentment, he only saw the local business forces being convinced by them and cooperating with them one after another.

Where did the People’s resentment come from? where did the boiling come from?

Was Prince Liang blind? To strip a soldier of his lifelong pursuit without investigating the truth and write off his decades of contribution to the military Palace?

He clenched his fists and silently took the scroll.

His heart had already died.

Long ago, when Xia qingchen had been treated unfairly, he shouldn’t have held any expectations for Prince Liang.

Such a fatuous ruler would never give anyone hope.

“This general accepts the decree.” Wu Xiong muttered to himself. He was extremely depressed.

Chan daozi said indifferently, ” Wu Xiong, Prince Liang was going to punish you. However, because I spoke up for you, I was only dismissed from my post. This is a light punishment. You have to thank me properly.

Wu Xiong laughed bitterly. He actually hoped that the Liang Prince would pin the blame on him. Only then would he be able to investigate the matter.

As long as they investigated thoroughly, they would be able to prove his innocence.

However, Prince Liang didn’t even investigate. He believed a few words of this lowly person and directly dismissed him.

“Many thanks.” Wu Xiong said indifferently.

He knew that Chan daozi didn’t say anything good at all, and even those slanderous words were said by Chan daozi. However, Chan daozi’s status was too high, and he didn’t have any evidence, so he couldn’t confront him directly.

“How do you want me to thank you?” how about this? ” Daoist Chan said shamelessly. I’ll be the middleman for you guys and be the peacemaker for once. How about that? ”

Peacemaker?

Daoist Chan clapped his hands, and two people wearing straw rain capes walked out from the rain. They took off their bamboo hats and revealed themselves.

Those were none other than the father and son, Wu kun and Wu Yan.

“It’s you guys?” Wu Xiong’s brows instantly furrowed, and his eyes revealed a cold look.”What are you guys doing here?”

as the saying goes, it’s better to squash enmity than to keep it alive, ” Daoist Chan said with a kind expression. today, I’ll be the peacemaker for both your families and resolve the grudges that have lasted for many years.

Wu Xiong was disgusted. It was inappropriate for outsiders to participate in their family’s internal affairs.

However, he could only hide his dissatisfaction in his heart and politely refuse, “”I appreciate your kind intentions, but we can solve our own problems.”

Chan daozi’s face immediately tensed up and he said with a displeased expression, “”What, I’m not qualified to make peace with you two?”

To make peace was built on the basis that both sides were willing. How could they coerce and make peace like this?

“I dare not!” Wu Xiong cupped his fists.

“Hmph! I’ve got a mouth of gold and Jade, I’m too lazy to care if others want me to make peace, but you’re good, you’re still trying to refuse!” how about this? ” Daoist Chan rolled up his sleeves and said, ” I’ll make peace for you from a fair point of view. I guarantee that both of you will be satisfied.

At this point, Wu Xiong could only continue listening.

Chan daozi stroked his beard and said, ” from what I understand, the reason for your conflict was that Wu Xiong privately organized a caravan to go to lounan territory to purchase goods. During that time, he ignored the repeated objections of his family and eventually led to a tragic disaster. His family members died tragically and his goods were robbed. Am I right? ”

Wu Xiong remained silent. On the surface, this was the truth.

However, Wu Xiong still felt that it was too much of a coincidence that he had been robbed by the rebel Wolf bandits. It was as if the rebel Wolf bandits had all the information about the merchant group and had accurately ambushed them.

However, there was no evidence, so he could only bury it in his heart and say nothing about it to anyone.

it’s easy to solve this matter. You, Wu Xiong, have to compensate the Wu family in the North of the city for all the lost property and apologize to the current head of the family, Wu kun. Daoist Chan said.

“You’ve killed so many of our clansmen, yet you still haven’t apologized to the clan. This is really outrageous!” Chan daozi turned to look at Wu kun. so many years have passed. You should be more magnanimous and accept his apology. Do you understand? ” he said.

Wu kun’s mouth curved into a smile, pretending to be forgiving. “If Wu Xiong is truly remorseful, it’s not impossible to forgive him.”

Forgive?

Wu Xiong’s face was filled with anger. What peace talks, they were clearly siding with him!

Not to mention that Wu kun had recovered all the wealth that they had lost. The family had not lost much wealth.

The apology alone was complete nonsense!

When Wu Xiong’s family was rudely driven out, they were not even given a chance to explain and save them, causing their family to live on the streets. The Wu family should be the one to apologize!

He didn’t find trouble with the Wu family, but the Wu family invited Chan daozi to support them and ask him to apologize?

Was there any justice in the world, and was there any law in the cool realm? (Update at 12 noon tomorrow)
