Chapter 1103

This familiar voice was exactly the same as the voice of the person he had met when he first came to the Imperial Palace.

Xiaochuan's backer in the palace was actually this person?

No wonder he was taken to that person as soon as he entered the palace.

Liu Bang felt as if he had discovered the truth.

However, compared to such things, it was more important to save his life for the time being.

"Why?"

While Liu Bang had many thoughts in his heart, Yi Xiaochuan was also standing at the door, asking the person outside through the door.

"Do you think I'm too merciful or what?"

Su Xuan's voice rang out again, "Why should I let him go because of your pity?"

"When you stepped into the room, you already had no choice. Either kill him according to my request, or let him report and expose you, and then you and Yushu die together. As for him, he might be able to use reporting you to get a promotion and wealth."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bang's face changed drastically. Before Yi Xiaochuan could answer Su Xuan outside the door, he hurriedly explained to Yi Xiaochuan, "Xiaochuan, you know me; I am your sworn Big Brother, how could I betray you for the sake of promotion and wealth?"

Although he said so, he never said to the person outside the door that he was no longer prepared to report Yi Xiaochuan.

In the end, all so-called words were just to temporarily numb Yi Xiaochuan.

The reason was because of Su Xuan's sentence.

Yi Xiaochuan was actually prepared to kill him?

Although Liu Bang considered himself to have learned some skills, he couldn't withstand Yi Xiaochuan being young. Back then, when he sent the other party to build the Great Wall, the other party survived; there was no doubt he had some skills.

Even if Liu Bang wanted to sell out Yi Xiaochuan for promotion and wealth, he couldn't say such things in the room, in front of Yi Xiaochuan.

However, Liu Bang did hear the meaning in the words of the person outside, which was that the other party didn't seem to object to him reporting Yi Xiaochuan.

"You are forcing me; you are so vicious!"

Yi Xiaochuan's voice contained deep anger.

Even if Liu Bang had done some wrong things, he hadn't caused any major errors in the end, and there was still room for repentance. Not to mention that Liu Bang was his sworn Big Brother, Yi Xiaochuan was willing to give the other party a chance to correct his mistakes.

But he never expected that Su Xuan would not accept such a result and was prepared to put Liu Bang to death.

Back then, because of himself, he had already caused the death of his master and his brother Yu; Yi Xiaochuan didn't want to cause the death of another sworn brother.

"I didn't force you; you were the one who accepted killing this person. What, after discovering the other party is your sworn brother, you can't bring yourself to do it?"

"I have to say, you really care about your sworn brother."

"Unfortunately, your eyes are as problematic as ever."

Yi Xiaochuan asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

"Exactly what it sounds like." Su Xuan's voice rang out again, "You would rather believe the person behind you than believe your fellow countryman Gao Yao. After I rescued Gao Yao, I once checked a matter for him, which was the matter of you and Gao Yao performing forced labor back then. I don't know what the person behind you told you, but at that time, it was indeed he who personally handed you over to the officials."

"Even, in order to let you build the Great Wall, he pulled some strings with the officials; otherwise, you should have been sent to the official slave camp."

"Those who build the Great Wall have always faced a life-and-death situation, yet he specifically sent you to build the Great Wall and even personally escorted you. His intentions are truly interesting!"

Yi Xiaochuan was stunned.

Su Xuan's words made him think of what Gao Yao had said that day.

Gao Yao found him and said Liu Bang was the culprit who caused them to perform forced labor, but he didn't believe Gao Yao, thinking there was a hidden story, and finally Gao Yao left in anger, while he firmly believed he could find the truth.

As a result, he didn't expect to hear such words from Su Xuan.

"Are you lying to me?"

Yi Xiaochuan came to his senses and said to Su Xuan outside the door.

"Lying to you? Are you worthy? If it weren't for Gao Yao's request, I wouldn't bother to check these things."

Su Xuan's words contained deep sarcasm.

Yi Xiaochuan took a deep breath. Although Su Xuan didn't produce evidence, combined with what Gao Yao had said that day, the balance in his heart gradually began to tilt.

Yi Xiaochuan turned his head and looked at Liu Bang again.

"Is what he said true?"
