After being reborn, I kidnapped the future powerful minister

Chapter 176 The Tattoo on the Arm
The next day, Guangping Palace.

He Zixu, the king of Guangping, sent out all the servants in the kitchen, and personally cut melons, vegetables, and meat, chopping the chopping board loudly.

Outside the door, the servants were all stunned. They didn't know why the master had been provoked to vent his anger on his own kitchen.
Not long after, Mrs. He hurried over after hearing the news, and saw that He Zixu had already started cooking vegetables inside.

Mrs. He saw that the situation was not good, she hurried to find her fourth son He Jiabei, and immediately said: "Bei'er, it's too bad!"

He Jiabei asked blankly: "What's the matter?"

Mrs. He hurriedly said: "Your father, he is cooking in the kitchen!"

He Jiabei said disapprovingly: "It's just cooking, what's the big deal?"

Mrs. He anxiously said with a pale face: "As long as your father immerses himself in the kitchen to cook, then something bad will happen."

But He Jiabei said calmly: "Mother, don't worry, my father is a great hero, everything will be fine. As the saying goes, people drink a glass of wine at a dead end, and eat a dumpling."

Mrs. He said: "Oh, it's easy for you to say. Now that the palace has such a big incident, you should hurry up and find a solution."

He Jiabei turned a deaf ear to it, instead, he rushed out of the room as if he suddenly thought of something.

The imperial palace at this time, inside the Golden Luan Hall.

All the members of the Lingnan team fell to their knees and said in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor sat upright, and said to them: "Today, I want to reward the champion of the Quadriennial Kowtow Competition. This year's champion is the Lingnan team. Retire."

All the teenagers in the Lingnan team and the Prince Jin beside him were happy when they heard the words.

Especially at this time, Prince Jin did not forget to make up for King Guangping: "The famous He Jiajun has achieved three consecutive championships. Doesn't King Guangping think it a pity that he can't win again this year?"

He Zixu smiled slightly, and said: "It is my emperor's blessing that there are a large number of talents in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If someone can beat the He family's army, this king should be happy."

The emperor nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and said with a smile: "King Guangping is really broad-minded, and he can be called a model in the world. Come, bring the rewards."

As soon as the words fell, a group of servants filed in, each holding an object in their hands.

And just behind the screen not far away, Liao Shiyin, the daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an, was hiding there secretly, watching the situation in the palace quietly, of course, the most important thing was to peek at the handsome and handsome Chen Shaotang.

"As expected of a hero who kills, his eyes have a charming charm and momentum."

As Liao Shiyin said, she beckoned to the specially invited painter and ordered him to quickly draw Chen Shaotang's appearance.

"The Lingnan team is really extraordinary this time. They defeated He Jiajun in one fell swoop and won the championship. Chen Jiqiu, come forward and accept the award."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, He Jiabei rushed in suddenly, knelt down on the main hall, and said: "The grass-roots He Jiabei kowtowed to the emperor, and may my emperor live long and live forever."

"Jiabei!" He Zixu was stunned when he saw his fourth son rushing in for no reason.

And Liao Shiyin and Jing Mo who were hiding in the dark were also taken aback: "What the hell happened? He Jiabei came to make trouble again!"

The emperor said angrily, "He Jiabei, why is it you again!"

He Jiabei raised his head slightly, and said: "The grassroots have something to report to the emperor."

The emperor raised his hand and said, "Okay, get up and talk."

He Jiabei straightened up according to his words, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

He Zixu said in a deep voice: "Jiabei, the emperor is about to award the Lingnan team, why are you here to make trouble?"

He Jiabei hurriedly said: "It is absolutely impossible to grant a seal."

As soon as these words came out, everyone including the emperor was shocked.

Prince Jin said angrily: "King Guangping, tell your son to respect himself."

He Jiabei looked around at the Lingnan team and said, "Lingnan team fouled in the match and should be sentenced to lose."

The emperor widened his eyes and said, "How do you say that?"

He Jiabei continued to say: "The members of the Lingnan team are not all idiots. This has violated the first article of the competition regulations. The participating players must be from the Central Plains of our Great Zhou Dynasty."

Chen Shaotang stood up and said, "What evidence do you have that one of us is not a fool?"

He Jiabei turned around, pointed at him and said, "It's you!"

Liao Shiyin turned pale when she heard this, and at the same time gritted her teeth with hatred and said: "This He Jiabei is talking nonsense again, I will kill him!"

As he said that, he was about to rush out and beat him up.

Jing Mo grabbed her and said, "Girl, don't be impulsive!"

Over there, Chen Shaotang asked loudly: "You say I'm not stupid, why?"

"Why?" He Jiabei suddenly tore off the sleeve on his right arm, revealing a striking tattoo with a strange pattern drawn on it.

"Just rely on the pattern on your arm." He Jiabei said.

Lord Jin sneered when he heard the words, and said, "Just based on such a pattern, you can conclude that he is not a fool? You are too arbitrary!"

He Jia faced the emperor from the north, and said: "Your Majesty, the grassroots are sure that this pattern comes from Beihu, because a few years ago, I once gambled with a businessman from outside the Great Wall, and in the end he lost all his money. The only sheepskin jug on my body was also given to me to pay off the debt. I accidentally discovered the pattern on Chen Shaotang's arm. I didn't doubt it before. Let's take a look, are the two patterns the same?"

When everyone heard the words, they cast their eyes on the sheepskin jug and He Jiabei's arm. After comparing them, they found that it was indeed the case.

"No, I'm not from Beihu! I'm a complete idiot, and Chen Jiqiu is my father! If you don't believe me, you can ask my father directly." Chen Shaotang said straightforwardly.

He Jiabei walked up to Chen Jiqiu, looked at him and asked, "Then, Mr. Chen, where did the pattern on your son come from? What does it mean?"

Chen Jiqiu pondered for a moment, and said, "That was when he was a child, and his mother accidentally burned him in the kitchen."

He Jiabei quickly asked: "Since that's the case, then what was Mrs. Chen cooking at that time? What kind of kitchen utensils did she use, and what happened to make the pattern exactly the same as the pattern on this jug?"

Chen Jiqiu faltered and said: "That's a coincidence, a coincidence."

He Jiabei smiled, and persuaded: "Mr. Chen, I advise you to tell the truth in front of the emperor. If you deceive the emperor, you should be executed. You should be very clear."

Hearing this, Chen Jiqiu knelt down in panic and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. What He Jiabei said is correct. Chen Shaotang was not born of Xiaomin. Xiaomin was born in Dazhou The borderlands of the kingdom brought him home."

When Liao Shiyin and others heard what he said, they all froze in place.

Chen Jiqiu continued: "That year, he had just turned two years old and was learning to speak."

With an unbelievable expression on Chen Shaotang's face, he knelt down and grabbed his arm and said, "Father, how did this happen?"

Chen Jiqiu turned his head and said quietly: "Shaotang, father has not told you this secret all this time, please forgive father."
