Translator: 549690339
Arriving at a temple, Li Fucheng busied himself with cleaning the place. As he cleaned, he said to Jiang Beiran,””Your Majesty, please forgive me. This is the place where we usually meet in secret. In order to hide it from others, I made it a little dirty. Please wait a moment, I will clean it up immediately.”
“No need.” Jiang Beiran sat down on a dusty chair and said,” If you really want to enjoy yourself, why don’t we go to an inn? I’m here to talk business.”
“Yes, Your Majesty, please wait a little longer. When Gui Can brings Huo
Zhishang here, we can talk about business.”
“Huo Zhishang?”
Naturally, Jiang Beiran still remembered this person. Back then, he had come to him for help in finding a child. Speaking of which, that Qian Xiaodong now… No, he should be called Huo Wenkang now.
At that time, he had noticed that Huo Wenkang had the temperament of a protagonist, so Jiang Beiran had left him a book that taught him how to make talismans,” The Thousand Seas Legacy Scripture.” Now that so much time had passed, he wondered if Huo Wenkang had shown his potential as a protagonist.
Seeing that Big Brother Wang was deep in thought, Li Fucheng replied, “Yes, it’s Huo Zhishang who came to ask you to help him find his son. It’s because of him that he invited you here.”
“Is something wrong with him or the son he found?”
“They’re all related, they’re all stubborn, they’re all related, they’re all related, they’re all related, they’re all related, they’re all related, they’re all related.”
“Greetings, benefactor!”
Before Li Fucheng could finish his sentence, he saw the burly Huo Zhishang stride into the temple and kneel down in front of Jiang Beiran with an excited expression.
“There’s no need for such a bow. “Jiang Beiran raised his hand.
However, Huo Zhishang did not get up. Instead, he pressed his head against the ground and continued, “Your Majesty, I will never forget your kindness. In the past two years, I…”
“I didn’t come all the way here to listen to your pleasantries. I heard from Fu
Cheng that this matter is related to you?”
“Your Majesty, yes, I have encountered a huge matter. I had no choice but to trouble you to come here. Please forgive me, Your Majesty.”
“What is it exactly?”
“This matter is a little long. Your Majesty, please listen to me in detail.”Huo Zhishang raised his head and looked into Jiang Beiran’s eyes.””Before I say anything, I have something to ask Your Majesty for.” After saying that, he kowtowed to the ground again.
“What is it?”
“Your Majesty, when I came to ask for help last time, I said that Huo Wenkang is my name, but it’s not true…Wenkang is actually my eldest brother’s son.”
“Hmm?”
Jiang Beiran frowned when he heard that, feeling that something was amiss.
Looking at Jiang Beiran’s frown, Huo Zhishang kowtowed again and said, “”1 know that deceiving the emperor is a great crime. If Your Majesty wants to punish me, I have no objections.”
Jiang Beiran waved his hand and replied, “Just tell me why you’re hiding this.” ”
“Yes!” Huo Zhishang raised his head again and said, “This one is originally from the Liang Country..
‘Good fellow…
Upon hearing Huo Zhishang’s opening remark, Jiang Beiran felt a sense of familiarity.
[The system is setting up a trap again!]
Below, Huo Zhishang continued his description.
“My Huo clan was originally a large clan in Guinan County. However, a huge change happened one day…” Huo Zhishang clenched his fists as he spoke. His face was filled with pain.” One day, the eldest daughter of the Tan family, Tan Ruihuan, came to Guinan County to handle some business. As the host, the Huo family naturally had to entertain her well. However, I didn’t expect that the she-devil would take a fancy to my eldest brother…”
Puff!
Hearing this, Jiang Beiran almost choked on his own saliva.
‘It’s okay if she takes a fancy to your big brother…’
Even though he felt that the story was not quite right, Jiang Beiran still suppressed his curiosity and continued listening quietly.
“However, my eldest brother had already married, so he rejected that she-devil. However, I didn’t expect that she-devil to directly make bold claims and say that she only gave my eldest brother two choices. One was to divorce his first wife and be with her.”
‘Good fellow…’
Jiang Beiran was stunned by what he heard. He couldn’t help but sigh at how the people of the State of Liang were indeed tough. Even a woman snatching a married man was so overbearing.
“As the saying goes, a strong dragon can’t suppress a local snake. Although the Tan family has some power in Huayao, my Huo family is naturally not easy to bully. Therefore, my big brother scolded the witch on the spot. The witch laughed and brought her people back.”
“Who would have thought that the Tan Clan would have a relationship with the number one sect in the Country of Liang, the Sky Thunder Sect? The sect master of the Sky Thunder Sect, Chou Fei Chen, is a mysterious level expert. How could our Huo Clan afford to offend him? Therefore, when facing the envoy from the Sky Thunder Sect, our entire clan could only lower our heads.”
“She wanted my big brother to kill my sister-in-law with his own hands, and she even wanted to kneel down and kiss her toes in front of everyone, begging to be her son-in-law.”At this point, Huo Zhishang clenched his fists even tighter, and his expression gradually became ferocious.” As the saying goes, a man can be killed but not humiliated! How can our Huo family endure such a thing! ”
“We fought with the demoness on the spot and repelled them. However, we knew that the demoness would never let it go, so we immediately dispersed our clansmen and hid. However, we didn’t expect that the demoness was so
powerful. In just three days, she ordered the two evil Mystic Royal Realm guardians of the Sky Thunder Sect to personally lead people to find our Huo Clan members and severely injure my father.”
“Bang!” Huo Zhishang suddenly slammed his fist on the ground and said with red eyes,'”‘This one has been rude. Your Majesty, please forgive me..”
