Seeing Zhuo Dingfeng injured, Zhuo Qingyao and Xiao Jingrui both cried out nervously and rushed forward eagerly to check Zhuo Qingyao's injuries.
Xie Yu, who saw this scene, breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he was not exposed in front of Meng Zhi and Xia Dong. As for Zhuo Dingfeng's injury, he didn't take it to heart.
Although Yue Xiu Ze won, he was not happy at all. Instead, he questioned Zhuo Ding Feng in dissatisfaction: "Brother Zhuo, why are you doing this?"
Of course he could see that Zhuo Dingfeng did it on purpose. This was not the duel he wanted, so he naturally couldn't be happy.

Chapter 848: Hidden secrets from the past, ruthless change of attitude, Zhou Chen takes action
Zhuo Dingfeng covered the wound on his wrist and looked unhappy.
Hearing Yue Xiu Ze's question, he said, "It's none of Brother Yue's business. I was a little distracted during the last move."
Everyone in the Zhuo family was very concerned about Zhuo Dingfeng's injuries. They surrounded him and examined him carefully. Xie Yu even shouted for someone to call a doctor.
Zhuo Dingfeng heard this and stopped him, saying, "No need to call a doctor, it's just a skin wound. Qingyao, go get some golden wound medicine and bandage it up."
When everyone was bandaging Zhuo Dingfeng's wound, Yue Xiu Ze said with a guilty look on his face: "Brother Zhuo, I lost this battle. Let's stop here. My Eyun faction will wait for the challenge of the heir of Tianquan in the future."
After saying this, he solemnly bowed to Zhuo Dingfeng.
He is an open-minded man. Although he apparently hurt Zhuo Dingfeng just now, logically speaking, he should have won.
But he felt that what happened between them was just a challenge and competition, not a real fight. If he failed to control himself and accidentally injured Zhuo Dingfeng, he would be defeated.
Zhuo Dingfeng nodded in return, then said to Xie Yu beside him, "I did tell Brother Yue that I would be available for instruction anytime and anywhere, so please forgive me for disturbing you by entering your house tonight."
Although he has a very good relationship with Xie Yu, this is Xie's Mansion after all, not his Zhuo Mansion.
Since nothing was exposed, Xie Yu naturally wouldn't say anything and said generously: "Brother Zhuo, what are you talking about? The underworld has its own rules. I understand that. You are injured now, so go to the back and rest quickly." He still wanted to send Zhuo Dingfeng away.
But before Zhuo Dingfeng could move, Yuwen Xuan suddenly said in a loud voice: "Everyone, please wait a moment."
Xie Yu's eyes were cold: "Your Highness Prince Ling, what do you want to do now?" He really had no patience left for this group of people.
Yuwen Xuan bowed to everyone and apologized: "I'm sorry to disturb you all."
Then he said to Yue Xiu Ze: "Uncle Yue, I have already let you complete the challenge ahead of time according to your wishes. Now it's my turn."
Zhuo Qingyao was furious when he heard this: "Your Highness Prince Ling, my father was just injured. Are you trying to take advantage of him? If you want to leave, come to me."
Yuwen Xuan said quickly: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, the appearance I mentioned is different from the previous martial arts challenge. With my martial arts skills, who can I beat among you? What I mean is, Master Zhuo should stay and watch the next scene."
Xie Yu had a bad feeling in his heart and shouted angrily: "This is ridiculous."
Then he said to Zhuo Dingfeng, "Brother Zhuo, ignore him and go to the back to rest."
Zhuo Qingyao and Xiao Jingrui supported Zhuo Dingfeng and prepared to send him to the back to rest.
But how could Mei Changsu let them leave like this? If the protagonists were gone, how could the show go on?
So he stood up and said, "Jingrui, quickly take a heart-protecting pill for your father to take."
Although Xiao Jingrui didn't understand why Mei Changsu said this at this time, out of trust, he still shouted at Yan Yujin: "Yujin."
Yan Yujin also reacted, took out the Heart Protecting Pill and handed it to Xiao Jingrui.
Mei Changsu explained calmly, "The pain of losing my cultivation is in my heart, not in my body. Master Zhuo will definitely feel reluctant to let go, and his blood must be upset. Tonight is not over yet, I hope you can take good care of yourself."
After hearing these words, everyone looked at Mei Changsu in surprise, especially the Zhuo family, who didn't understand what was said and were completely bewildered.
Because of Mei Changsu's words, the Zhuo family did not leave for the time being. Yuwen Xuan seized the opportunity and said to Yuwen Nian beside him: "Niannian, didn't you come here this time just for him? Go, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Yuwen Xuan’s words gave Yuwen Nian courage. With her face covered with a veil, she slowly walked towards the Zhuo family.
When Xiao Jingrui and others saw Yuwen Nian coming over, they were a little confused. Zhuo Qingyao and Yan Yujin couldn't help but take a few steps back. Yuwen Nian stood directly in front of Xiao Jingrui.
Xiao Jingrui didn't think that Yuwen Nian's target was him. He looked around, but found that Yuwen Nian's eyes were staring at him, which made him extremely puzzled.
Yuwen Nian slowly took it off, revealing her face, and then under Xiao Jingrui's puzzled gaze, she shouted, "Brother, I'm Nian Nian. Daddy misses you very much. Come back to Nanchu with me, okay?"
When Yuwen Nian said the first half of the sentence, Princess Li Yang, who had been staying in the palace, stood up with her hands covering her chest with an expression of disbelief, looking very nervous.
As for Xiao Jingrui, he was immediately stunned, and the others were equally stunned, how could he even recognize his kiss after such a good time?
When Xiao Jingrui was still looking around in confusion, Yuwen Nian suddenly grabbed his shoulders with both hands and said loudly: "Brother, you are really my brother, look at me, look at my face."
Meng Zhi and Xia Dong started to perform at this time.
"You know what, they really look alike."
"Yeah, it seems a little bit."
This echoed the other people's voice and made them observe more. Perhaps they were infected by the same thing, and they all felt that Xiao Jingrui and Yuwen Nian looked very similar.
In fact, in Zhou Chen's opinion, Xiao Jingrui and Yuwen Nian do not look alike. As a man, Xiao Jingrui has a slightly delicate appearance, very much like Princess Li Yang; on the contrary, although Yuwen Nian has regular facial features and a slender figure, from a face perspective, the two do not really have many similarities.
At this moment, Princess Li Yang in the palace suddenly felt a pain in her chest and fell down in pain. The nanny next to her was so scared that she hurried forward to help her.
"Princess, Your Highness."
Everyone outside the hall couldn't help but look inside, only to see the eldest princess' face filled with pain, staring at Yuwen Nian with a strange look.
Her behavior surprised everyone, especially Xiao Jingrui, who looked at his mother in astonishment.
Seeing that Xiao Jingrui was speechless and didn't know what to say, Yuwen Xuan walked over and grabbed Yuwen Nian's hand.
"Walk."
As he spoke, he pulled Yuwen Nian into the hall and walked in front of Princess Li Yang. When the others saw Yuwen Xuan's abnormal behavior, they also followed him into the hall out of curiosity.
Only Xie Yu was standing outside the hall with a gloomy face, motionless, and his expression looked as if he was about to kill someone.
Under the angry gaze of Princess Liyang, Yuwen Xuan saluted, pointed at Yuwen Nian beside him, and said, "Your Highness, this is my cousin, Princess Xiandai Yuwen Nian, the daughter of my uncle, Prince Sheng Yuwen Lin."
Princess Li Yang's expression did not change at all, because she had already guessed the answer. She just continued to stare at Yuwen Xuan with an angry expression and ignored Yuwen Nian's salute.
Yuwen Xuan didn't care about Princess Li Yang's attitude at all and told her the secret of that year.
"More than 20 years ago, when my uncle was a hostage in your country, the eldest princess took care of him. When he heard that the eldest princess was pregnant, my uncle was unwilling to leave at all costs, but he had no choice but to bear the authority of the late empress dowager. Over the years, my uncle has never forgotten the eldest princess and this child of his and yours."
As Yuwen Xuan spoke, Princess Li Yang's expression slowly changed, as if she was missing someone, or as if she was resentful.
But when Xiao Jingrui heard this, his heart skipped a beat and a feeling of fear surged in his heart.
Zhou Chen sighed silently. Here, he was just a bystander. What was coming next would be the most hurtful time for Xiao Jingrui. When the time came, he still felt a little bit reluctant.
Yuwen Xuan did not give Princess Li Yang time to catch her breath. He pulled Yuwen Nian and said, "Niannian, you are the younger generation. Go and kowtow to the princess."
Yuwen Nian walked over obediently, knelt down, and kowtowed heavily to the eldest princess.
"Nian Nian pays respects to the eldest princess and thanks her for taking care of my father."
After thanking him, she did not stop, but continued: "Your Highness, Princess, you already have a son. Can you return my brother to me and let me take him back to Nanchu to meet my father?"
After hearing this, the Zhuo family was stunned. Xiao Jingrui's eyes turned red, and he asked Princess Li Yang excitedly, "Mother, is what they said true?"
Princess Li Yang shed tears drop by drop. She looked at her son with guilt on her face, but she didn't know what to say.
Yuwen Xuan was not so hesitant and said directly: "Xiao Jingrui is the son of Yuwen Lin, the Prince of Southern Chu Sheng. Does Her Royal Highness intend to keep it a secret?"
This left Princess Li Yang with no way to retreat. Under Xiao Jingrui's questioning, she stood up tremblingly.
Outside the hall, Xie Yu gritted his teeth, staring intently at the inside of the hall, his veins bulging from his clenched hands.
Seeing that his mother hadn't spoken a word or refuted, Xiao Jingrui's legs went limp and he fell to his knees. Princess Li Yang was so frightened that she broke free from the nanny's support and rushed towards him.
"Jingrui, Jingrui, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm sorry."
But Xiao Jingrui seemed not to hear anything, and was completely dazed. Yu Wennian behind him was calling him brother anxiously, and Yan Yujin was so angry that he shouted to stop him.
The hall was filled with sadness and pain, and the atmosphere was very depressing. The Zhuo family was also shocked and unbelievable.
In this secret incident, their family was actually the biggest victim, but at the moment they didn't know what to say. They were kept in the dark like fools by Xie Yu and Princess Li Yang.
Seeing that the atmosphere had become so tense, Mei Changsu, who had been watching coldly, winked at Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen sighed softly and squeezed Gong Yu's hand.
Gong Yu received the signal, his expression silent, he let go of Zhou Chen's hand, and suddenly laughed, and his laughter became louder and louder, and his laughter was full of sadness.
When everyone in the hall heard Gong Yu's laughter, they all turned to look at Gong Yu in confusion.
Yan Yujin asked unconsciously: "Miss Gong Yu, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Chen didn't say anything and stood silently aside. Gong Yu walked out expressionlessly and his eyes fell on Princess Li Yang.
"So, this is how our family was killed."
Yan Yujin was stunned and said, "A fatal disaster? Miss Gong Yu, what did you say? Brother Yu, what happened to Miss Gong Yu?"
Gong Yu and Zhou Chen did not answer Yan Yujin, and Gong Yu suddenly shouted, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
As Gong Yu turned around and looked at Xie Yu outside the hall, the others also looked at Xie Yu. Everyone had a premonition that something big might happen tonight.
Xie Yu stared at Gong Yu with murderous eyes. To be honest, he had no idea what Gong Yu said, but he was sure that Gong Yu definitely had no good intentions.
Gong Yu continued, "I couldn't figure out why you had to kill my father. Today I finally understood. It turned out that it was because my father was incompetent and was ordered to kill Madam Ling's illegitimate child. Unexpectedly, he only killed the Zhuo family's child. He didn't complete your commission."
Zhuo Dingfeng and his family of three were dumbfounded. Gong Yu's words instantly reminded them of the child who died more than 20 years ago.
Mrs. Zhuo asked anxiously, "What did you say?"
At this moment, Xie Yu finally understood why Gong Yu said this. It turned out that Gong Yu was the child of the killer back then.
He could no longer hold it in, his eyes were cold, and his body moved instantly. He used all his strength to fly into the air and rushed straight towards Gong Yu. When he got close, he snatched the sword from Madam Zhuo's hand, wanting to kill Gong Yu.
But Gong Yu was not afraid at all. When Xie Yu's sword was about to stab Gong Yu, a figure suddenly stood in front of her.
"Ding!"
Zhou Chen flicked his fingers and deflected the long sword that Xie Yu was stabbing at him, causing the long sword to fall out of Xie Yu's hand, and then he slapped Xie Yu with his palm.
Xie Yu was hit by Zhou Chen's palm and flew backwards. After landing, he retreated several steps in embarrassment before steadying himself and roared: "Mr. Yu!"
Zhou Chen ignored Xie Yu's roar and asked Gong Yu softly, "Are you okay?"
Gong Yu shook his head: "It's okay."
Seeing that they were still flirting with each other, Xie Yu became even angrier. Just as he was about to lose his temper, Mrs. Zhuo suddenly rushed out.
"Wait, let her finish her words first."
Xie Yu's eyes were gloomy, and he shouted, "What can such a witch say to her?"
Madam Zhuo said angrily, "She just mentioned my child. What's the meaning of your sudden attack on her? Are you hiding something or something?"
When Zhuo Dingfeng saw his wife losing her composure and questioning Xie Yu, he hurried forward to ease the situation.
"Ma'am, calm down for a moment."
Then he discussed with Xie Yu: "Brother Xie, you should let Miss Gong Yu finish her words. If she talks nonsense, I will not forgive her."
Xie Yu's face was gloomy. He did not take any more action. He naturally knew whether what Gong Yu said was true or false. He was just thinking about what to do next.
Gong Yu seized the opportunity and said, "The baby who died at that time had no scars on his body, only a red spot between his eyebrows. I am right, right?"
Mrs. Zhuo's body shook when she heard the words, because what Gong Yu said was true, Zhuo Dingfeng was also shocked.
"If Master Zhuo wants to know more details, why not ask Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
In an instant, everyone's gaze involuntarily shifted from Gong Yu to Princess Li Yang. Princess Li Yang was no longer as weak as she had just been. She stood upright and looked at Gong Yu with complicated eyes.
Gong Yu also knew that Princess Li Yang would not tell the truth, so she continued to talk: "The Princess knew that her husband wanted to kill her child, but she could not question him face to face. She was very distressed. Fortunately, there was a nanny who knew the inside story and stayed by her side."
As she was speaking, the nanny beside Princess Li Yang knelt down hurriedly, lowered her head and dared not speak.
Xie Yu couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted angrily, "What nonsense! Someone come here."
Suddenly, countless soldiers in armor rushed out from all directions and gathered in front of Xie Yu, and Xie Yu retreated into the crowd.
Seeing this scene, the Zhuo family members didn't understand what was going on. Zhuo Dingfeng was fine, but Mrs. Zhuo was already gritting her teeth and staring at Xie Yu with resentment.
The others were also made nervous by Xie Yu's move.
Mrs. Zhuo couldn't hold back her anger and shouted, "Qingyao." At this moment, only she was trustworthy.
Zhuo Qingyao was about to step forward when his wife, Xie Yu's daughter Xie Qi called out in a panic: "Brother Qing."
Zhuo Qingyao struggled, but in the end he chose his parents. He gritted his teeth, walked forward, and stood in a row with his parents.
Xie Yu was very decisive and gave the order quickly.
"Surround the Eagle Team, quickly dispatch the crossbowmen to help, and kill this evil woman on the spot."
All the soldiers shouted at the same time: "Yes."
