The Eastern Dragon Goddess

Truth

The palace hall began to be filled with citizens, they came when an announcement for Xu Lian's court.

Xu Lian neither refused nor resisted when he was to be taken to the palace hall for his trial, nor did he resist when Huanran slandered him before the court family.

Even now Xu Lian still remained calm even though he was standing in the middle of the palace hall and surrounded by the palace family or the citizens of the Wei kingdom. He had also sent a message to Zhang Xiuhuan through the Heavenly Dragon through the contact of his mind. He could only wait for Zhang Xiuhuan to do his job properly.

In contrast to Xu Lian, Huanran was now enjoying things very much. Although he felt that there was an awkwardness when there was no resistance from Xu Lian.

So was Xu Jiao who was very happy to see Xu Lian in his current state. But actually Xu Jiao did not know about the fact that he was not the son of Xu Kong but General Wang. So Xu Jiao's hatred for Xu Lian was indeed out of envy.

Xu Kong was still silent, now he was in a very heavy position between choosing his wife or child. He hoped that Xu Lian would fight back so that this matter would not become big, but Xu Lian did not even speak a word to defend herself. But Xu Kong could also see if in fact Xu Lian had his own plans. Therefore, if Xu Kong wanted to know his daughter's plan he would have to follow this game.

Even though Xu Lian was in a court position, no one dared to talk about it or make fun of it. They already knew who Xu Lian really was, therefore they did not want to offend him.

A eunuch advanced into the middle of the palace hall to begin the trial.

"Begging the Empress to explain the events that have already happened"

Huanran, who initially stopped crying, is now back in tears when he will return to tell the events that have happened to him. Huanran told me everything the same as he had told me while in the Family Room.

Everyone remained silent hearing the story from Huanran. They felt a little awkward in their story.

"Now your Princess can defend herself" said the eunuch.

"Should I waste time like this?", Xu Lian sighed softly "I won't lie, I will indeed kill the woman!", Xu Lian pointed at Huanran with a sharp gaze, "Because that woman is *******" he said.

Xu Jiao was about to stand up from her seat when she heard the insults from Xu Lian to her mother, but her intentions were undone when Xu Kong raised his hand as a sign that no one could stand against Xu Lian.

Everyone started whispering about Xu Lian's explanation. They began to guess about the truth that actually happened.

"You all want to know the truth, right?" yelled Xu Lian.

Everyone looked at each other without answering a word. Xu Kong was waiting for what his daughter would do. In contrast to everything, Xu Yong and Xu Li tried to digest exactly what was going on the two of them really did not understand what Xu Lian meant.

"Alright, silence all of you means yes" Xu Lian smiled mockingly at Huanran who was now frozen in place. "The woman who is touted as the empress has a special relationship with others even to the point of having a daughter...."

"STOP!!! THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!" shout Huanran.

Xu Lian chuckled at Huanran's resistance.

"Why? you don't want to tell them if you have a special relationship with General Wang even you have a daughter from him" Xu Lian covered his mouth with his hands as if he was speaking wrongly. He had indeed been waiting for the situation as it is today, because he wanted to divulge the truth not only in front of the palace family but all the royal citizens as well.

Everyone began to fuss over Xu Lian's words, as did Xu Yong and Xu Li who were beginning to understand the matter.

"Sorry princess, what do you mean by this accusation?" The general walked towards the palace hall. He had just returned home from a mission, and was shocked by the news of the palace. He really could not believe that Xu Lian would tell everyone. General Wang felt he had been negligent in being aware of everything that might happen, just like this moment.

Xu Lian yawned lazily with the presence of General Wang, he thought General Wang would not return so soon.

"What's? should I repeat it from the beginning?" said Xu Lian lazily.

Xu Kong was still quietly watching what was happening, but the difference was now that he was holding a great anger when he learned a great truth about his wife. Although Xu Kong loved Jialin more than his first wife, Huanran was still his legal wife.

Xu Jiao began to not understand what was going on right now.

"Do you have any proof, Princess?" General Wang was still focused on keeping his attitude in front of Xu Lian.

Xu Lian rolled his eyes lazily, hearing General Wang's question of wanting to corner him.

"You want proof? wait a minute!. And from that I will tell everyone one more truth" Now everyone started cheering for Xu Lian to tell them the truth.

Xu Lian only smiled faintly at the enthusiastic looks of the citizens.

"You know that General Wang who was in the midst of a self-serving prince to the kingdom actually had a very great ambition to rule the Wei kingdom" Xu Lian sighed for a moment, "By making me his weapon, Xu Lian sighed, therefore he was always beside me and defended me" he said.

General Wang clenched his hands together hearing Xu Lian's words. He could not rashly attack Xu Lian because he knew that he would not be able to fight him.

BRUKK....

From above the sky suddenly fell an old man, and was followed by Zhang Xiuhuan's arrival with a small dragon who flew with him.

"You've been a long time! even I have to hear the babble of the fox woman" Xu Lian said resentfully.

Zhang Xiuhuan only chuckled faintly hearing Xu Lian's grievances. His eyes stared at General Wang sharply.

"You were asking to prove it? Well, now I have the proof"

General Wang's body stiffened when he saw the existence of a dying old grandfather. He couldn't do anything now when he saw his partner.

"Include him is General Wang's partner, Tao Mingrui"

Xu Kong was shocked, as he recognized who the old geezer was. He really could not believe that he was not a hermit who used to bring news of the curse on Xu Lian's body.

Now Xu Kong began to understand with all Xu Lian's words. General Wang actually already knew Xu Lian's true strength, so he wanted to use Xu Lian as his weapon to rule the Wei kingdom and the news of the curse was a lie, Xu Kong thought.
