Chapter 146: Concealing the Truth
Huo Jingya vividly told Li Yuzhi the story of Sang Ning beating up a beggar.
Sonning was a little worried.
She finally saw the beggar's eyes under his messy hair, which contained a terrifying murderous aura.
Who is that person and why is he sneaking around outside the Huo family's door?
Could it be sent by the Second Prince?
Sang Ning went to the foot of the wall, bent down to sort out a few traps, thinking about getting a wolfdog as soon as possible.
Huo Changan heard Huo Jingya's announcement and pushed his wheelchair to the door.
I walked around outside and didn't see anyone suspicious.
When he turned back to the door, his body suddenly shook. He sensed a very strong breath and looked up suddenly.
I saw a strong figure standing upright on the newly built wall, the wall that was full of sharp wooden stakes!
The weight of an average adult man would not be able to stay on the wooden stake for more than a few breaths before the soles of his shoes and feet would be penetrated.
But that man was definitely not light in weight, so he stepped on it with ease.
It can only mean that he has strong internal strength, can raise his energy, and has cultivated the floating strength! He is far inferior to him!
Although he was horrified, he also felt that the figure looked familiar.
But at this moment, Huo Changan no longer cared about anything else. The person that man was staring at was Sang Ning under the wall!
"Ning'er!"
As he shouted in fear, the figure leaped down like an eagle swooping down to its prey.
Sang Ning'er!
It’s her!
Which lady could be so cruel as to almost break his bones?
It turned out to be the daughter of Sang Xiuqi, the treacherous villain who had brought disaster to the Hou Mansion!
There was strong hatred in the man's eyes, as if he was her mortal enemy. His five fingers turned into claws and grabbed towards Sang Ning.
After Sang Ning finished setting the trap, he was looking at the growth of the wild vegetables he had moved out of the space with his back to the tree. Suddenly, he heard Huo Changan's shout and felt the sound of breaking wind behind him. His face changed and he quickly squatted down.
At the same time, a man rushed over and stood in front of her with open arms.
It’s Mo Cuiyu.
She came to find Sang Ning, and when she saw this scene, she rushed over without thinking.
The pair of iron claws grabbed her mercilessly.
Grabbed...one of her breasts.
The beggar seemed to be frightened as well, his eyes as sharp as copper bells, revealing a fear that was inconsistent with his aura and physique.
The good news: At the last moment, he was able to release his strength and didn't hurt the person.
Bad news: He touched it, touched the part that should never be touched, he is dead!
Mo Cuiyu's gentle eyes turned fierce, and she pulled out a sharp spike and stabbed it.
"Misunderstanding! Madam, please forgive me!" The man dodged quickly.
Which lady is this?
Is it the first lady, the second lady, the third lady or... no more, the only one left is Sang Ning'er.
The dodge ended with a miserable howl.
He finally jumped onto the trap.
He had just been laughing at Sang Ning'er for fiddling with the animal trap, but he still couldn't avoid it.
Also, who made this clamp? Damn, it's so nasty! The teeth are so dense and long.
It's about to break my bones!
At this moment, all the Huo family members came out after hearing the noise. Sang Ning also pulled Mo Cuiyu to a safe place. Everyone took out their weapons and looked coldly at the man who was frantically prying open the animal trap.
The more you look at it, the more familiar it looks?
Huo Changan, having just recovered from his shock, asked sternly, "Who are you? Why did you come to my house to commit murder?!"
“Ugh… roar!”
The man gritted his teeth and growled, finally prying open the trap.
This animal trap is very cleverly made. It is hard to tell how to open it. The more you pry it open with your bare hands, the tighter it gets. Unless you have enough strength to hold on tightly and not let go, you will break it in one go.
The injured leg is still that one, and he will be lame for some time.
The man's hands and legs were covered in blood. He didn't care about anything else and just randomly pushed his hair back, revealing his unshaven face.
"Fourth Young Master! Madam! I am late!"
After saying this, he kowtowed heavily to the old lady.
Everyone looked at the old lady in surprise.
The old lady pursed her lips and tried her best to control her emotions, but her eyes were still wet.
The word "Madam" brought back many memories for her.
"Yes, you're late... but you're here finally."
When he came, she felt completely relieved.
"Come in."
"Old Four and Ning'er come in too."
The old lady turned and went back into the house.
The man was obviously shocked. He looked at the old lady, then at Sang Ning, and then at Huo Changan.
Finally, he watched warily as Sang Ning moved little by little behind Huo Changan.
Huo Changan let out a breath and withdrew his gaze from the distant sky, with redness already in the corners of his eyes.
"Brother Meng, come in."
…
Ten years ago, Yan Hu, a general from Liaodong County, killed the King of Liaodong and led his troops in rebellion. Huo Zhennan was ordered to suppress the rebellion.
When I arrived in Liaodong, I learned that the King of Liaodong was cruel to the people, raping and looting, doing all kinds of evil, and the people hated him to the core.
The weak scholar was humiliated, and the mass grave was filled with corpses in blue.
Young girls were hung naked on the city gate for viewing.
An old woman selling vegetables was trampled into a pulp in the street.
Buddhist temples became places of debauchery and pleasure.
Finally, when the hearts of the children in the city were dug out one by one, the people went crazy.
Thousands of people surrounded the Liaodong Palace.
What did Yanhu see when he came to protect?
One after another, young and broken bodies were thrown down from the gatehouse.
It was the helpless cries of the people who were waving iron pitchforks but could not resist the bites of the wild beasts.
It was the King of Liaodong standing on the gate tower and laughing wildly.
"General Yan, are you here to strangle us too?"
"Isn't it said that soldiers are there to defend their country and protect the people?"
"General Yan, are our lives really so worthless?"
"General Yan..."
"General Yan..."
Many of these civilians had gone to the military camp to deliver food to the soldiers.
Many of them are the soldiers’ relatives!
When parents are brutally murdered, should the son protect the enemy who killed his father and mother?
There is no such thing in the world.
"Yanhu! Kill these arrogant and unworthy people for me! Feed them all to the dogs!" shouted the King of Liaodong.
No!
"A soldier's duty is to defend the country and protect the safety of the people! Brothers, kill—"
Yanhu's eyes turned bloodshot and he shot an arrow at the arrogant figure.
"Enjoying the support of the people, yet eating their flesh and blood! Heaven is angry and people resentful, only death can quell the people's anger!"
Arrows filled with kerosene were shot at the palace soldiers, man-eating lions, tigers, bears, and vicious dogs.
Yanhu rebelled!
The Liaodong Palace was razed to the ground.
Huo Zhennan, the god of war of Dongyang State, had 30,000 elite soldiers against a mere 20,000 city defense soldiers.
In order not to bring disaster to the people, Yan Hu did not resist at all.
He knew that if they were escorted to the capital, they would not have a good ending.
Even if there are good reasons to challenge the royal power, those in power will abandon them.
But Yanhu did not expect that the people would come and join the team spontaneously. Eighty-year-old old men, children half a person's height, men and women, holding kitchen knives and three-pronged forks, stood with the soldiers.
Except for those who couldn't come, everyone came.
The number of people reached 80,000.
Yan Hu didn't expect that Huo Zhennan saw this scene and decided to let them go.
As expected of the God of War, he quickly devised a plan to conceal the truth.
