When Yang Xuan's voice came, Yang Xiao was startled, and then the evil aura on his body disappeared.
Zhao Ming, who was still trembling, suddenly felt that the dark clouds dispersed and the sun returned to the earth, and he fell to the ground.
"Brother, are you okay? Where have you been these days?"
Yang Xiao came up and looked Yang Xuan up and down. After confirming that Yang Xuan was fine, he showed an honest smile.
Zhao Ming on the side became energetic.
"Yang Xiao, if you dare to threaten me with a knife, I will punish you with military force."
Only now did Yang Xiao recall that his behavior just now had caused a big disaster, and he looked at Yang Xuan worriedly.
And Yang Xuan walked over with squinted eyes: "Master Zhao, I think you have this skill, so you should worry about your Zhao family's affairs first. Privately forging weapons, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, any crime is enough for your Zhao family.
Those who confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans.”
Zhao Ming panicked for a moment, but he quickly reacted: "How dare you slander our Zhao family? Do you think our Zhao family is at the mercy of others?"
Yang Xuan chuckled and pointed to Zhao Siming, who was holding a rope next to him.
Zhao Ming glanced at him, and Zhao Siming lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Zhao Ming.
This move immediately made Zhao Ming dumbfounded. What did it mean? Could it be that Zhao Siming knew something and confessed to it?
Zhao Ming didn't have the intention to quarrel with Yang Xuan, so he just said "wait for it" and left in a hurry.
"Brother, if you don't come back, I will kill the Zhao family." Yang Xiao said with a smile: "Fortunately, you are fine."
Yang Xuan smiled: "I have always bullied others, no one bullies me, brother is worrying too much."
"That's good, that's good."
Yang Xiao felt relieved, but Yang Xuan took Yang Xiao's arm and said, "Brother, you almost got into trouble just now. Do you know who that kid is?"
"I don't care who he is."
Yang Xuan sighed: "That is the legitimate son of the head of the Zhao family, and Concubine Zhao is his aunt."
Yang Xiao then showed an anxious look: "Will it bring you trouble?"
"It's okay, I can deal with your brother."
The news of Yang Xuan's return quickly spread to the Admiral's Mansion, even faster than he himself arrived at the Admiral's Mansion.
"Mr. Yang, what are you doing here? I haven't seen anyone for several days, and I haven't even received a letter from you."
"I'm sorry, Admiral, I'm sorry. I went to Beishan Iron Mine for some work, but something unexpected happened on the way back."
When Chen Changqing heard this, he looked shocked: "What accident happened?"
Yang Xuan looked around, then leaned into Chen Changqing's ear and whispered softly: "The Zhao family forged weapons privately and collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country."
This sentence was so powerful that even Chen Changqing was frightened and his whole body tensed up.
"Is there any evidence?"
"No."
Chen Changqing slapped the table: "Nonsense, is this something you can joke about?"
"Admiral, although there is no evidence, it does not mean that there is no such thing." Yang Xuan said, "This is a good opportunity to take advantage of the Zhao family."
Chen Changqing's narrowed eyes twitched slightly.
"We are facing a formidable enemy. Do you know what the consequences will be if the morale of the army fluctuates?"
Yang Xuan very keenly caught Chen Changqing's subtle movements: "Admiral, so what I said was discretion. If it weren't for the enemy, I would have said search."
Chen Changqing picked up the tea bowl and took a big sip to hide the shock in his heart.
What Yang Xuan inadvertently revealed in his words was that the higher-ups were going to attack the Zhao family?
But since Yang Xuan didn't say it clearly, Chen Changqing wouldn't ask. After putting down the tea bowl, he just said lightly: "How to handle it?"
"Iron ore." Yang Xuan said, "Didn't we agree at the beginning that we would use the iron ore to build a weapons factory?"
That's it?
Chen Changqing wondered for a while, are you making such a big move just because of the iron ore?
Looking at Chen Changqing's puzzled look, Yang Xuan said: "Originally, I wanted to get some other benefits in exchange for the iron ore with the Zhao family. Now that I am doing this, I am not afraid that they will not obediently offer the iron ore."
…
At Zhao Mo's house, Zhao Ming was slobberingly reporting to him that Yang Xuan was back.
"He also took Zhao Siming away?" Zhao Mo was so angry that he wanted to curse: "What do you do for food? In front of you, can you let others take away members of our Zhao family?"
Zhao Ming felt aggrieved: "Brother, you don't know, that Yang Xiao is so cruel. Let me tell you, if that Yang Xuan had come back a little later, maybe I would be dead now."
After listening to Zhao Ming's story about Yang Xiao's threat to him, Zhao Mo was not even angry: "You turned against them. You really think our Zhao family is easy to bully."
Zhao Mo stood up and left: "Follow me to the Admiral's Mansion. I don't believe it. Even if Yang Xuan has three heads and six arms, we still have to ask for an explanation today."
When the two brothers arrived at the Admiral's Mansion, Chen Changqing was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, frowning, while Yang Xuan was sitting aside and drinking tea leisurely.
When the guard reported Zhao Mo's request to see him, Chen Changqing snorted coldly: "They still have the nerve to come."
Yang Xuan made a gesture with his thumb and index finger: "Admiral, hold it, hold it."
Chen Changqing nodded, took a breath, and then waved his hand to the guard who was passing the message: "Let them come in."
As soon as Zhao Mo and Zhao Ming entered the door, they saw Yang Xuan sitting beside him. Zhao Mo snorted before stepping forward to greet Chen Changqing.
Chen Changqing drank tea without raising his head: "Sit down."
Zhao Mo frowned as he sat down. He had worked with Chen Changqing for many years. From Chen Changqing's tone and demeanor, he could tell that Chen Changqing was not in a good mood at the moment.
"Sir Admiral, I am here to ask you to uphold justice."
"explain."
Zhao Mo's heart skipped a beat. It seems that Chen Changqing's bad mood was directed at him, right?
But even if you come here, you have to bite the bullet and go ahead.
"Your Excellency, Yang Xuan arrested Zhao Siming, the head of the Household Casting Iron Bureau, in the Beishan Iron Mine without any reason. Please seek justice, Your Excellency."
Chen Changqing glanced at Yang Xuan: "They came to the door, you can tell me yourself."
Yang Xuan took a sip of tea and then said: "Master Zhao, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. I arrested Zhao Siming because he instigated his men to commit murder on me. For such a bold person, I naturally want to
Bring him to justice."
Zhao Ming stood up and shouted loudly: "Now that I am in your hands, do you mean what you say?"
Yang Xuan smiled slightly: "Many people from the Iron Foundry Bureau saw this, including the guards, miners and others. If Mr. Zhao doesn't believe it, just go and investigate."
Zhao Ming wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Zhao Mo: "Mr. Yang, I don't know you, so how could Zhao Siming attack you? I'm afraid it doesn't make sense."
Yang Xuan nodded: "This is the right question. It's not like that fool who only barks randomly."
Zhao Mo frowned and stopped Zhao Ming who was furious at the side: "Master Yang, please don't change the subject. Now I want to ask you, why did Zhao Siming commit the murder?"
