Chapter 220: Chapter 102: Trip to Yuzhou (23) The Tragic Fate of Chen Hezhi and His Son

Inside the house.

Bai Mowan gazed at Xiao Jinxing, her eyes full of anticipation.

Xiao Jinxing felt a slight stir in his heart.

It was Bai Mowan’s initiative that rippled his heart.

He nodded, "Good."

He had always been responsive to Bai Mowan’s requests.

Whatever she wanted, he would give.

Even if it meant giving her away to someone else, he could do it.

Let alone making her his wife.

Bai Mowan’s smile deepened upon hearing Xiao Jinxing’s response.

She said, "Brother Xiao, I will surely never let you down in the future."

In this lifetime, I will never let you down again.

Xiao Jinxing’s lips curled into a handsome smile.

His eyes filled with doting.

In this world, the only person who has ever given him warmth was Bai Mowan.

Xiao Jinxing fed Bai Mowan lunch.

He also ate something himself.

Bai Mowan insisted on meeting Chen Hezhi and his son right then, so Xiao Jinxing helped her off the ground.

The two headed towards the dungeon of Pang Mansion.

Other than Yuan Wenkang following by Xiao Jinxing’s side, Pang Nan was also behind him at this moment.

The group appeared in front of Chen Hezhi and his son.

The two were bound, bearing numerous injuries and looked very ragged.

"Chen Hezhi, Chen Zihuan, you are utterly audacious! As the Military Governor of Yuzhou, not only did you not bring welfare to the people, but you also plunged Yuzhou City into peril, harmed the populace, and even attempted to kill me, your crimes are extremely heinous!" Xiao Jinxing spoke with authoritative coldness, filled with a commanding aura!

Chen Hezhi and Chen Zihuan, having fallen into Xiao Jinxing’s hands, knew their fate was grim.

Yet they never thought they would end up in the hands of the most despised King of Chen.

Chen Zihuan hastily spoke, his voice extremely humble, "King Chen, I did this due to King Chu’s instigation. King Chu has always wanted to kill you, and I was merely following his orders, it was truly not my intention, please discern the truth, King Chen!"

"Even now, not repentant, you dare to maliciously incite discord between me and the Emperor! Guards!" Xiao Jinxing commanded.

"I am here," Yuan Wenkang quickly stepped forward.

"Bring me the Imperial Sword bestowed to me by the Emperor!"

"Yes." Yuan Wenkang handed the Treasure Sword he held to Xiao Jinxing.

In pursuit all the way, to ensure the Imperial Sword was not lost, Yuan Wenkang kept it in safekeeping.

Naturally, Yuan Wenkang wouldn’t dare be separated from it for even a step, and would even sleep holding the Treasure Sword.

Xiao Jinxing took the Treasure Sword.

Chen Hezhi and Chen Zihuan, observing Xiao Jinxing’s demeanor, were frightened yet again.

"King Chen, my words are absolutely true. If King Chen doesn’t believe me, you can bring me back to confront King Chu. I have correspondence from King Chu, you must believe me!" Chen Zihuan said desperately.

To save his life, he instantly betrayed Xiao Jinsen.

Bai Mowan stood beside Xiao Jinxing, watching the wretched state of Chen Hezhi and his son.

In her past life.

Chen Zihuan had done many unconscionable things alongside Xiao Jinsen, and when she recalled how he led Xiao Jinsen’s troops to ransack her entire family, she wished she could flay Chen Zihuan a thousand times!

"King Chen." Chen Zihuan was frantic, continuously looking for a chance to save his life, "King Chu has always wanted to kill you, if you don’t expose him now, with King Chu’s current strength, you are certainly no match for him, and you will face danger sooner or later. If you bring me back to the court to see the Emperor now, I have evidence of King Chu plotting your death, the Emperor will surely punish King Chu, and then King Chen, you can protect yourself!"

Xiao Jinxing just coldly watched him.

He was naturally indifferent to his words.

Chen Zihuan was indeed just playing tricks.

He thought that once he went to the court and saw King Chu, as long as he didn’t accuse King Chu but instead falsely accused King Chen of intentionally harming King Chu, King Chu would not only not kill him but would also save him and even reemploy him. He just needed to deceive King Chen now.

Chen Zihuan anxiously watched Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing’s indifference made him unable to guess what a person was thinking for the first time.

He had also had several encounters with King Chu, and although King Chu was also very scheming, he could still grasp what he wanted to some extent.

But facing the present King Chen, he really didn’t dare to jump to conclusions easily.

"The brotherly bond I share with the Emperor is unbreakable by the likes of you scoundrels!" In response to Chen Zihuan’s words, Xiao Jinxing remained utterly cold.

The expressions on Chen Zihuan and Chen Hezhi’s faces grew even more frantic.

Ultimately, it was Xiao Jinxing who was too naive, unable to counter-attack Xiao Jinsen skillfully.
