Chapter 1800: 1800 Retrial The man in black glanced at Su Qingyue and Su Xuanye beside him, hesitating whether to speak. “They are not outsiders, feel free to speak,” Su Qingyue said, so the man in black spoke, “After multiple verifications, it is confirmed that there is indeed an injustice in General Zhao Zhenkun’s case. I originally found several living witnesses from that time, proving that there were other intricacies in Zhao General’s case. Perhaps the intention to overturn Zhao General’s case was leaked, and all the witnesses were killed.” The man in black lamented, “I deserve to die.” “This happened so many years ago, you can’t be blamed. You may step back now.” The man in black used Qinggong and disappeared over the wall. Xiao Yuchuan was puzzled, “Wife, I know you’ve dispatched many teams recently. What are you investigating?” Su Qingyue said, “Fifteen years ago, the Great General of Zhen Guo, Zhao Zhenkun, suffered a defeat in battle and was accused of treason, colluding with the enemy. The court ordered that the entire family of Zhao General, 123 people, be executed; I’m sure you are quite aware of this.” “But what does that have to do with you?” “Over five years ago, I inadvertently saved a man, who was being hunted by several martial world experts. On the brink of death, I saved his life. He is my subordinate, Fu Chou,” she said calmly. “Fu Chou is highly skilled in martial arts and constantly fought several experts with his life at stake, aiming to improve his skills. As a result, he made countless enemies. Though I saved him, he was unwilling to work for me. With his pride, he would never obey anyone. I secretly investigated and found out that he is the son of General Zhao Zhenkun from the Zhen Guo, named Zhao Mingcheng. Before the massacre and execution of the Zhao Family, Zhao Mingcheng was replaced by the son of a servant by General Zhao and secretly sent out of the General’s Mansion, thus surviving.” “Zhao Mingcheng’s identity should be known to no one. Even if you saved him, he wouldn’t possibly reveal it. How did you know, wife?” Xiao Yuchuan directly asked the crucial point. “He ‘told’ me himself,” Su Qingyue slanted her lips, “When I saved him, he was in a coma and unconsciously muttered some words in his sleep. I pieced them together and deduced he was Zhao Mingcheng. Later, I sent people to investigate Zhao General’s case, found some clues, directly asked Zhao Mingcheng, and he admitted his identity.” Xiao Yuchuan was a clever person; he quickly realized, “So, wife, you made a deal with Zhao Mingcheng. He helps you with all his might, and when you have enough power, you will overturn the case for the Zhao Family.” She nodded, “Third brother, you’re indeed clever. This is the agreement between Zhao Mingcheng and me. At that time, I seriously lacked trustworthy people around me. For over five years, he indeed made significant contributions to my Tianji Pavilion and remained loyal to me. Now, it’s time for me to fulfill my promise.” “However, it has been fifteen years since the Zhao Mansion’s massacre and execution. Even if there was an injustice, there’s no evidence left to overturn the case.” ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵 “There will always be a way,” Su Qingyue said. “I’ve already found out that fifteen years ago, Vice Chancellor Xiao Kang embezzled the military pay and delayed military matters, resulting in the court’s defeat. To cover up the evidence, Vice Chancellor found a scapegoat, blaming the Great General of Zhen Guo, Zhao Zhenkun, for treason and collusion, leading to the execution of Zhao General’s entire family. There were quite a few deputy generals who knew about Xiao Kang’s delay in military matters, but unfortunately, over the years, they all died unnatural deaths, presumably caused by Xiao Kang’s secret orders.” Xiao Kang is not only the current Vice Chancellor but also the eighth brother of Xiao Chonghuan, the head of the first-class family, the Xiao Family.
