Chapter 293: Chapter 293

The crowd automatically gathered again, but their gaze towards Pei Shu’er carried a hint of complexity.

Such a wonderful girl, why is she tang Zan’s wife?

Pei Shu’er learned the ins and outs of the situation from others, and she smiled slightly, taking something out from her bosom.

"You want evidence, right? Then I’ll show you the evidence."

As soon as Pei Shu’er said this, everyone around focused on the thing in her hand.

As for Tang Zan, he couldn’t help but be a little stunned.

He realized that no matter what was needed, Pei Shu’er always managed to produce it just at the right moment.

Something so easily lost yet extremely important, most people wouldn’t carry it with them.

Tang Zan thought Pei Shu’er took it out to bluff these soldiers, but when he went over, he saw that it was an account book with detailed records and an official seal.

His heart trembled, Pei Shu’er actually had it!

"But this evidence is precious, so we’ll first show it to General Zhao, and then General Zhao will announce the result."

In the eyes of the soldiers, Pei Shu’er’s figure was so petite, but when she spoke, her words were forceful and resolute.

She risked worldwide condemnation standing shoulder to shoulder with Tang Zan. She was so dazzling and had such a good reputation, yet at this moment, she willingly stepped into the mire.

At this moment, Tang Zan just wanted to hold this petite woman in his arms.

She was always , repeatedly resolving his crises.

Now that she stood out , she was opposing the entire Gulan Military Camp.

If chaos broke out, with so many people, she would definitely get hurt.

Thinking of this, Tang Zan held Pei Shu’er’s hand, and Pei Shu’er turned back to find Tang Zan had already pulled her behind him.

He thought of the people behind him and embraced Pei Shu’er in his arms again.

His eyes were wary of those around him,

As if ready to pounce and bite those soldiers at any moment. Updates are released by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩

Yan Hengyin’s heart ached unbearably when he saw Pei Shu’er walk towards Tang Zan alone, and when he saw Tang Zan holding Pei Shu’er in his arms.

These scenes pierced his eyes and his heart.

Pei Shu’er, wasn’t she his?

Why was it Tang Zan holding her now?

He was just a down-and-out princely heir, was his status more noble than his?

He wanted to snatch Pei Shu’er, but reason told him he couldn’t do it.

General Zhao had already finished reading the evidence.

"From this account book, it seems that the War King was indeed wronged."

With that, he let out a deep sigh; such a great hero was wrongfully executed.

Yan Hengyin frowned, "Is this falsified?"

Pei Shu’er said, "No, don’t worry, Third Prince, this is the original."

If she hadn’t had a grasp of the plot and read the book so carefully back then,

she wouldn’t have known where such an important account book was hidden.

Because this account book had been lost from the very beginning.

Even the Third Prince and the Twelfth Prince didn’t know where it was.

Yan Hengyin wanted to snatch the account book from General Zhao, but Pei Shu’er hurried to General Zhao’s side, smilingly addressing Yan Hengyin.

"How can we trouble the Third Prince to personally take it? I will read it for the Third Prince."

Tang Zan held Pei Shu’er, his eyes red as he threatened in a low voice.

"If you dare go over, I’ll deal with you tonight."

Pei Shu’er sighed, "...if we can’t get through this, we might not even have tonight."

"Don’t worry, I’m just afraid the Third Prince will rip the account book."

Tang Zan said, "I’ll take it over."

Pei Shu’er sighed, "If you take it over, believe it or not, a fight will break out immediately."

Tang Zan didn’t speak anymore. Pei Shu’er soothingly patted Tang Zan’s back, and only then did he release his grip.

Pei Shu’er held the account book and walked towards Yan Hengyin.

She stopped at a distance of two meters from Yan Hengyin before flipping through the account book in her hands.

Yan Hengyin looked at this insurmountable gap of two meters and felt his heart ache even more.

Was his heart broken?

Why did it keep hurting recently?

Meanwhile, Pei Shu’er was also observing Yan Hengyin’s expression.

She noticed his pupils trembled violently, even though the book didn’t mention him at all.

Yet his reaction was much stronger than usual.

From his expression, Pei Shu’er realized this matter might have intricate links to him.

Yan Hengyin was absolutely involved in this matter.

Not just framing the Prince Zhan Mansion’s people for exile, perhaps even embezzlement had his hand in it.

Yan Hengyin reached out to snatch the account book.

Pei Shu’er timely stepped back a pace.

"The Third Prince must have seen clearly, if there’s nothing to hide, naturally he wouldn’t want to grab this stuff."

She smiled as she walked past everyone.

Pei Shu’er said, "The rest, let the Commander and Households see it, and remember to tell your subordinates after you’ve seen it. Similarly, I’ll hold it."

The Commander and Households looked at General Zhao, and seeing him nod, they went over to look.

Still keeping a distance of two meters, each time they finished reading one page, Pei Shu’er would ask once, confirming everyone had seen and understood it, then turn the page.

After they had finished reading, Pei Shu’er put away the account book.

The expressions of Commander, Households, and troops were somewhat peculiar, with obvious guilt in their eyes toward Tang Zan.

They turned around and explained the situation to their subordinates.

It was a true demonstration of stirring up a hornet’s nest, as the soldiers’ gazes towards Tang Zan were laden with guilt, gratitude, and a sense of discomfort and indignation.

Such a great hero, the War King, actually died wrongfully.

They realized their actions had truly disheartened a hero.

However, hatred blinded everyone’s eyes; they couldn’t see anything else or even think.

They were merely swayed by the Third Prince and Commander Qian.

Many soldiers struggled for a long time and finally cupped their hands in apology to Tang Zan.

"Commander Tang, please don’t take it to heart. The brothers are the ones who have wronged you in this matter."

"In the future, if you need anything, just say the word, and the brothers will never hesitate."

Their words were incredibly sincere, and the hatred in their gaze toward Tang Zan had vanished.

Tang Zan didn’t speak; he wasn’t a forgiving person.

But it didn’t mean that he intended any harm towards these ten thousand or more people.

The real enmity was with the Third Prince and Commander Qian.

Pei Shu’er squeezed Tang Zan’s hand, signaling him to say a few words.

Tang Zan finally uttered some formalized words, "This issue has numerous doubts, but you needn’t fret over it. We are brothers who live and die together, so saying such things is unnecessary."

His words undoubtedly brought another wave of goodwill.

Everyone now wished to connect with Tang Zan genuinely.

He was the son of the War King! Yet the Great Yan War God died wrongfully. Everyone’s admiration, regret, and sorrow for the War King transformed into a closeness and guilt towards Tang Zan.

Now, even if Tang Zan asked them to fight the Dazi, these soldiers would willingly go.
