"So it was you!" The bearded man secretly clenched his fists and stared at Du Pian Hong as he walked up to him. He raised his right hand and swung it at Du Pian Hong's face without a word.
Du Shanhong hurriedly closed his eyes, feeling that this slap would be very painful. The lumps on her face should take at least a week to disappear. As she thought of this, she was already prepared to endure all the pain.
However, after waiting for a long time, she did not feel any pain at all.
Du Pian Hong opened his eyes. Everything he saw was white, and his nose was filled with the fragrance of orchids. She knew that the person standing in front of her was her big brother.
The big brother who had always doted on her!
Du Youlong grabbed the bearded man's hand with one hand and glared back at him fiercely. He gritted his teeth and said,""I can't even bear to hit my sister. When has it ever been your turn?”He raised his hand and slapped back like the wind.
If he did not die, he would be severely injured!
The bearded man covered his reddened left cheek and glared at Du Paihong with gritted teeth.
"You killed my sister, and now you've even found your brother to help you. Du Pian Hong, how can you be so shameless!”The bearded man scolded, then looked at Du Pian Hong with disdain and spat at her,"You sinister and vicious fellow!”
"Actually, that matter is not what you said.”Du Pian Hong only knew that she had to quickly clear her name. Although no one would believe her if she said it out loud, she still had to say it.
"Actually, I didn't kill your sister. All of this was planned by someone!”
These words had been buried in her heart for a long time. Now, she finally had the chance to say it out loud!
"Please believe me, I really didn't kill your sister.”"Really!" Du Pian Hong anxiously defended himself. I dare to swear to the heavens!" She raised her hand above her head and swore to the sky.
If she dared to lie, she would get her retribution!
The bearded man was only slightly stunned. Obviously, he did not expect that someone would swear to the heavens for him. However, on second thought, he felt that this might also be Du Paihong's trick. Thus, he gripped the saber in his hand again and prepared to attack at any time!
"Why, why don't you believe me?”Du Pian Hong retreated in despair, his mind replaying the scene of him being framed and thrown into prison. At that time, no one was willing to stand up for her, and no one believed what she said.
Everyone believed that she was the murderer of the Hou family's young miss!
"Don't say anymore!" The bearded man covered his ears and shouted,"No matter what you say, it's all excuses! Now that everyone in the capital knows that you, Du Pian Hong, have killed someone, do you still want to deny it?”
All the people in the capital?
Did everyone know?
Du Shanhong's intuition told him that something was wrong, and he began to feel uneasy.
She remembered that after she was released from prison, it was the Empress who had personally promised her to seal this news. But now, why…
Make the whole city know?
Was the Empress not keeping her word, or was there someone behind everything?
Du Pian Hong felt that the current situation was extremely disadvantageous to her!
She couldn't continue to live like this without any reason. She had to find the real murderer and clear her name!
"Who is it? Did this news spread from the Holy Palace?”She walked towards the bearded man step by step, ignoring the sharp weapon in his hand and his fierce appearance. She seemed to have changed into a different person. She was no longer compromising and was no longer timid.
She advanced step by step with a fierce aura, as if she was a queen looking down from above, even though the current situation was disadvantageous to Du Pian Hong.
"Speak! Who is it?" She shouted and glared at the bearded man.
The bearded man swallowed hard, his hands trembling slightly under Du Pian Hong's gaze. Just now, he was trembling because of Du Youlong's terrifying martial arts. Right now, he was trembling because of Du Panhong's imposing manner.
Under the pressure of the powerful aura, he suddenly had the urge to surrender!
" This…the earliest…this matter seems to have…spread from the Holy Palace…the Holy Palace…" The bearded man had no choice but to confess," But…what does this mean?”
"It means that I really didn't kill your sister!”Du Pian Hong interrupted the bearded man," If I told you that I was wrongly accused, if I told you that the Empress and I had already made an agreement to block this information…then, would you still believe me?”
This matter had started to become abnormal from the moment it began to spread among the people!
It was unusual. His intuition told him that someone was behind this!
The bearded man could not help but waver a little when he saw Du Pian Hong's determination.
Was he always wrong?
"Why don't we set a deadline?”At this moment, Du Youlong stood up and said,""This matter is obviously a little strange. I believe that brother wouldn't want to take revenge on the wrong person.”
The bearded man pondered for a while, then nodded and said,"That's true. If everything is as Du Penhong said, then there must be someone behind this who wants to use my sister's death to frame Du Penhong. Then, I definitely won't let such a thing happen!”
Du Youlong nodded his head in approval, then looked at Du Pian Hong with satisfaction, thinking that this matter could finally be put on hold. He heaved a sigh of relief and said,""Three days. If we can't find the real murderer within three days, then you can do whatever you want!”
"Good!" The bearded man nodded without a word. In his opinion, it didn't matter if it was three days or ten days. As long as he could find the real murderer of his sister, it didn't matter if he was given more time!
" But..." The bearded man thought for a moment and continued,""However, if this matter is handed over to you for investigation, it will be inevitable that you will side with your little sister and deliberately lie about the truth. How about this, I want to participate in this matter too!”
Du Youlong only gave Du Panhong a look, and after receiving the other party's agreement, he had no choice but to agree.
"My name is Hou Jiawei." The bearded man picked up the big knife on the ground and said,"The second young master of the Hou family, Hou Jiawei."
