Looking at Tai'an from the full moon

Not long after Yun Feng and the others left, screams like pigs being slaughtered were heard outside.

"Let me go! You bunch of rebels! Let me go, let me go, let me go!"

"It's so noisy!"

One of the guards even wanted to knock the noisy little trash out with a knife, but thinking that the master might ask him something, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and carried him all the way back.

Finally they returned to Wangyan City and arrived on the city wall. The guards immediately threw Xiao Zuoming to the ground, as if holding him for another second would be a torture.

Xiao Zuochen heard the noise in the house, pushed the door open and walked out, just in time to see Xiao Zuoming lying on the ground in a mess. With his hands and feet tied and thrown to the ground, Xiao Zuoming was wriggling like some kind of creature. The appearance of Xiao Zuochen made him stop his movements immediately. After all, he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Xiao Zuochen, so he just lay down and closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.

Xiao Zuochen walked up to him and kicked him. But Xiao Zuoming pretended to know the truth and did not open his eyes even after Xiao Zuochen kicked him twice more.

"Stop pretending. Is this interesting? Xiao Zuoming!"

Xiao Zuoming opened his eyes, and the first words he said left everyone speechless.

"I'm not Xiao Zuoming, I'm Emperor Mingren! I'm your father!"

Ah......ah......

The scene was so quiet for a moment that it seemed as if a crow had flown overhead. Xiao Zuoming looked at Xiao Zuochen on the left and at the guards on the right, still looking "sincere" and speaking stubbornly.

"You don't believe it? I really am Emperor Mingren, it's true!"

Several guards standing by couldn't stand his poor acting any more, so they all lowered their heads and covered their mouths, their shoulders shaking from trying to hold back their laughter.

"you...!"

Xiao Zuoming seemed insulted. He raised his tied hands and pointed at them with the fingers that could still move. But when he was about to say something else, he was interrupted by Xiao Zuochen.

"When did you discover your situation?"

"what?"

Xiao Zuoming didn't understand what Xiao Zuochen meant.

"Ming, Ren, Emperor!"

Xiao Zuochen reminded.

"Oh~ You asked Emperor Mingren! Actually, from the beginning I..."

Xiao Zuoming had just said a few words when he realized that he was about to be exposed. He quickly covered his mouth with both hands, his eyes rolling around guiltily.

"How did you start?!"

Xiao Zuochen immediately asked, but Xiao Zuoming just shook his head violently.

"Say or not?"

Xiao Zuochen asked again, but Xiao Zuoming still shook his head. Xiao Zuochen sighed helplessly and waved his hand at Yunqiao.

"give it to you."

When Yunqiao heard this, his eyes lit up, and the other three guards beside him also looked at him with envy.

"What? What did you mean by handing me over to him!?"

Xiao Zuoming, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, spoke anxiously. Perhaps it wasn't that he didn't understand the situation, but that he understood it too well, and thus was a little scared.

Yunqiao picked up Xiao Zuoming like a chicken, then raised his fist to his mouth and blew a breath. The action was deliberately slowed down, as if to provoke Xiao Zuoming. Xiao Zuoming watched Yunqiao raise his fist, put it to his mouth, blow, swing it back, and then hit him in the stomach.

“Eh? Eh? Eh! Eh Eh! Ah~ No, Xiao Zuochen, you are serious...!”

Xiao Zuoming didn't expect that Xiao Zuochen would actually let his men beat him up. After all, they were brothers, and he actually did it!

However, Yunqiao did it in slow motion, so the punch was actually very light. Xiao Zuoming felt pain only because he was too weak. And now, the second punch was about to come.

"Actually, I still have feelings for my third brother. After all, we are siblings~"

Xiao Zuochen said this carelessly while flicking the dust off his clothes, but these words were like a life-saving straw to Xiao Zuoming who was "suffering" at the moment.

"Yes, yes! It's brothers! Ah~ stop hitting, stop hitting!"

Xiao Zuochen ignored his words and continued talking to himself.

"But the problem is that my third brother is gone! You, Emperor Mingren, used forbidden techniques to occupy my third brother's body and used his body to do all kinds of evil things. This is truly an unforgivable crime! Today, I will kill you for the sake of justice and avenge those wronged souls and my third brother!"

As Xiao Zuochen spoke, he suddenly pulled out the soft sword from Yunqiao's waist and was about to chop Xiao Zuoming's neck. Seeing the sword approaching, Xiao Zuoming closed his eyes and shouted loudly.

"Wait!"

Just when everyone thought he was going to give in, he said something.

"But this body belongs to your third brother. It's not good to separate the head and the body, right?"

"Pfft~"

One of the guards couldn't help it. After meeting Xiao Zuochen's gaze, he immediately reached out and pinched his thigh, using the pain to ease his smile.

"Okay! What you said makes sense, then let's use poison!"

Yunqiao also cooperated by reaching into his arms and started taking things out. This time Xiao Zuoming was really scared and he quickly bowed.

"Okay, okay, I admit that I am Xiao Zuoming, okay? You guys really are..."

Although Xiao Zuoming admitted it, there was obviously an element of coercion and inducement involved.

"no!"

Xiao Zuochen stretched out his hand to interrupt him.

"We strictly prohibit confessions under torture. Since you are not guilty, don't admit it!"

Xiao Zuochen's righteous words shocked Xiao Zuoming so much that his eyes widened.

Seeing that Yunqiao was about to punch him again and Xiao Zuochen's soft sword was still on his neck, Xiao Zuoming could no longer bear it. He shook his body several times like a madman and said angrily.

"Alright! I've admitted it, what else do you want from me~"

After saying this, he almost started to cry.

Seeing this, Xiao Zuochen put away his sword and signaled Yunqiao to let him go.

"Then tell me~"

Xiao Zuochen turned his hands behind his back and looked at Xiao Zuoming, but Xiao Zuoming had a pleading look on his face.

"Can we talk inside? It's too cold at night~"

Indeed, Xiao Zuoming was dragged out from under the quilt without any outer clothes on.

The few people were speechless, but finally carried him into the house. Xiao Zuochen sat upright beside the bed, and Xiao Zuoming had to stand and talk to him.

"What do you want me to say?"

Xiao Zuoming seemed to have finally accepted his fate. He hopped obediently towards Xiao Zuochen with his feet together, trying to get closer to him.

"Just tell me how you knew Emperor Mingren possessed you."

"this......"

Xiao Zuoming hesitated for a moment, and seeing this, Xiao Zuochen tilted his head and looked at him.

"You don't want to say you don't know, do you? Or do you still want to say you are Emperor Akihito?"

"No no no!"

Xiao Zuoming immediately shook his head like a rattle, fearing that Xiao Zuochen would "torture" him again.

"Then just say what you need to say, so you won't have to suffer."

"Okay, okay~ As long as you don't bully me, I promise to tell you everything I know!"
