The royal descendant, young master, and Crown Prince of the Chu were instantly silenced.

"Sinner Xiang Yan pays his respect to Your Highness, Crown Prince."

After Xiang Yan finished speaking, he knelt down at Su Qin's feet.

Even the Chu Emperor had to be respectful to him. Xiang Yan didn't even have to kneel when he saw the Chu Emperor, and now that he was a descendant of the Chu Emperor, he had to kneel down and receive him.

"Xiang Yan!"

Su Qin looked at Xiang Yan with complex emotions.

Xiang Yan was one of the four great gods of war during the time of Chu Sheng the Great Emperor, he had troops arranged in formations, and his command of war was of the first class. Xiang Family had been loyal for generations, and the Great Chu Royal Family trusted the Xiang.

"Xiang Yan, has Chu ever let you Xiang Family down?"

Su Qin asked.

Xiang Yan lowered his head and said, "I have not, thanks to Your Majesty's grace, received many great generals from the family for generations."

"Since the Chu Royal Family did not let down the Xiang Family, why must your Xiang overthrow the country that you have protected for several thousand years. Not only is the Great Chu Dynasty a dynasty of my Royal Family, it is also a land that your ancestors protected for you with your life.

"I... Puff.

Xiang Yan spat out a mouthful of blood that dyed the stone board red.

This old man has let down Great Emperor Chu Sheng, have let down the ancestors of Xiang, I have only done one thing wrong in my life, but I never thought that it would lead to such a huge calamity, I am the sinner of Xiang's clan.

Seeing his father's dejected look, Xiang Zhong could not bear to say anything, "Father, Qi'er is my child, if you were to say that Xiang is guilty, it is also my fault. He did not listen to father's teachings and stay by Yufeng's side to educate Qi'er, which was why he would do such a heinous thing."

"Shut up, don't mention that Jian woman anymore. If you had listened to my words back then, the entire clan of Xiang would have reached such a state today, and the ancestral scripture [Loyalty and Patriotism] that has been hanging in the ancestral hall for thousands of years, has always been considered as a pride of the Xiang Family. Who would have thought that my generation would end the glory of the Xiang;"

"Brother Xiang Yan, I regret that I did not teach you a lesson. Nephew Zhong'er and I are trapped in this damned place, it is a grave mistake for that girl Yufeng to not enlighten your grandson, but it is also not an excuse for you to insult a woman. You know that I hate men who look down on women the most in my life."

"General Fan, do you know who Zhong'er's wife is?" Xiang Yan did not directly answer, but threw out another question.

The white-faced general cupped his fists and said, "I'd like to hear more about it."

He had not been in the dragonfly for long and had not experienced many wars, but when it came to his father, Fan Tian Fang, there was no one who did not know of him. Any one of the Chu people he captured could tell him a story about Fan Tian Fang, who was a general in the army at the same time as Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan, who was born in the Xiang clan, carried a golden spoon when he was born. He was the best teacher ever since he was born, and when he entered the army, he directly started off as a field officer.

Usually, his mother would sew clothes for his neighbors to supplement his family, but because he had been tired all year round he died within a few years. When he had reached adulthood he heard that there was no need to go hungry in order to become a soldier, so he decided to go to the recruitment office and from then on Fan Tian was loved by the gods. He made several meritorious feats and during his glory days he was acknowledged by the left general who was second only to Xiang Yan, the great general.

According to the rules, as long as Fan Tian didn't make a big mistake, his descendants would definitely be blessed by the gods. Even becoming the next Xiang wouldn't be impossible.

He was only at the early stage of the Spirit emperor stage, a grand general of the Imperial court who had spent his entire life trying to escape from the clutches of others even though he was only at the early stage of the Spirit emperor stage. In order to protect Fan Tian, who was at the peak of his Spirit Emperor, he had placed two Supreme Elders at his side so that others would not be as strong as he was, but Fan Tian Fang was assassinated at home with his head chopped off. When Sheng Tianyi heard of this, the Emperor was so angry that he personally used the Supreme Force "Time Yi" to find the assassin and killed him with a single palm strike.

The reason why she entered the dragonfly was to investigate the culprit who killed his father, Chu Shenghuang had personally killed an assassin, and the news that the assassin was from Northern Yan Country's assassin family. However, Fan Ziyu did not believe that his father had never formed an enmity with the assassin family, so why did the culprit send the Spirit Emperor elder to assassinate him, there must have been someone buying and killing people, and she had set her target on Xiang Yan.

Because his father's name was too famous and had once threatened the position of the Xiang Clan, it was completely reasonable for Xiang Yan to buy people for murder.

Xiang Yan had explained to him before that he had nothing to do with Fan Tian Fang's death and that he would be upset if he died. The Great Chu had lost a commander, and he had also lost a close friend.

However, no matter how many times he explained, Fan Ziyu would never believe him. All these years, he had placed Fan Ziyu by his side, protecting his friend's only daughter, and allowing her to search for the so-called truth.

"Nephew Zi Yu ?"

"General Xiang Yan, please address this lowly general's position. In the military camp, there is only a hierarchy of positions."

Xiang Yan did not try to cause trouble anymore, "Battle old man, we have been working together for hundreds of years, through hardships and hardships, fighting together, going through life and death together, we have witnessed the glory of the Great Chu. Back then, the Great Luo Empire murdered Chu Ren, provoked Emperor Chu Sheng, and the Great Emperor angrily sent our troops to attack the Luo Empire, do you still remember that war?"

The Luo Country was the last kingdom in Great Chu Dynasty to be destroyed. This battle had lasted for five whole years, and could be said to be the most difficult battle in the entire Great Chu Dynasty.

"Xiang Yan, what exactly are you trying to say?"

The young master was right, the Chu's traitors could kill him, the Xiang had destroyed the Chu, this was a crime that connected the nine families together.

"Ai, I promised Zhong'er that I would never mention this secret ever again. Today, I have to say, Zhong'er's wife, Yufeng, is from Luo, her father is Luo AoTian ?"

"Xiang Yan, repeat one more time, who is Yufeng's father?"

"That year, the two of us worked together to kill Luo AoTian, and your son married Luo AoTian's daughter. You're not afraid that she would poison your Xiang Family to death that day. Now I finally understand why the Xiang rebelled against the Great Chu. How could the child taught by Luo AoTian's daughter serve the Great Chu?

"I regret it so much. Back then, Zhong'er knelt down and begged me to hide Luo Yufeng's true identity. This old man's heart softened for a moment, which led to a great disaster. I am the sinner of the Chu."
