Chapter 112: : vicious plan! The old friend is back!
Translator: 549690339
Of course, a mere vice chiliarch would not dare to go against the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
He definitely had a powerful backer behind him, and it was a very strong one.
Moreover, even if a martial arts high scholar was conferred an official title, it was rare for him to be directly promoted to a Deputy thousand-man commander.
Lin Mo betrayed Shen lang and took the opportunity to build a relationship with Xu Guangyun and Zhang Jin.
However, this layer of relationship was too shallow. It might be possible to let you pass the martial arts examination, but it would be impossible to give you a lucrative position.
Why was this Lin Zhuo, the son of the boss of the splendid Pavilion, Lin Mo, so awesome?
Why did they dare to detain the cavalry of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu?
This was because he had taken the same path as Shen lang.
Living off a woman.
Shen lang was living off the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu while Lin Zhuo was living off the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an.
Of course, the two palaces of the Earl were different.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was an old noble family with land.
The palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an was a new noble conferred by the king. He had no land and no private army.
In terms of power, the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an was more impressive.
To be honest, uncle Black Tortoise was not willing to provoke uncle Jing an.
In Tiannan province, the count of zhenbei, Nangong ao, was the number one giant in the military, while the count of Jing ‘an, Wu Zhaozhong, was the number two giant, in charge of tens of thousands of troops in the State of Yue.
This uncle Jing ‘an had three daughters. Two of them were as beautiful as flowers and looked like their mothers.
Only this third daughter was truly unpalatable.
If a point system was used, this third miss of the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu You you, would only get three points at most.
Of course, even if it was only 30%, she was the daughter of a military Big Shot, after all. There would still be many people who would go after her.
However, she had a hidden illness, a hidden illness that was brought from her mother’s womb. Furthermore, she was getting fatter and fatter. Now, she was 23 years old and weighed more than 170 kilograms. Many doctors concluded that this third miss would not be able to bear any children in the future.
The entire Palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an was worried sick about her marriage.
Any teenager with a little background would not be willing to marry such a woman.
At this moment, Lin Zhuo had just passed the martial arts examination. He had to wait for his assignment.
Lin Zhuo was anxious as he watched the good positions being taken away one by one.
However, he didn’t have any backing at all. He didn’t know how much money his father had given out, but it was all for nothing. He didn’t even know where to send the money.
Moreover, there were already rumors that he might be transferred to the South to guard the island, becoming a Centurion.
Lin Zhuo was truly frightened.
There was nothing on those islands. The water was salty, and it was difficult to even take a bath.
And even if he was a Baihu, he wouldn’t have more than twenty men under him.
Twenty men were guarding a Lonely Island without a single woman on it. Who could guarantee what would happen?
Furthermore, his father had sent a letter saying that his enemy, Shen lang, had married into the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and had soared into the sky. The Lin family was in trouble.
Hence, Lin Zhuo gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He immediately went to the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an to recommend himself.
He was handsome and extraordinary, and he was also a high scholar.
Wu You you was immediately satisfied, and Jin Hai Bo was also satisfied.
Just like that, Lin Zhuo became the fiancé of the Earl of Jing ‘an and the Vice-chiliarch of the salt Mountain.
In order to avoid him, the officials of the thousand households office in Salt Mountain all pretended to be on official business and left to seek a transfer.
Now that young master Lin Zhuo had returned to Xuanwu city as a thousand-man commander and led an Army of over a thousand, it could be said that he was returning home in glory.
What was the first thing that a person would do when they suddenly became rich? Of course, it was a class gathering, a gathering of friends.
If he couldn’t show off, wouldn’t he be walking at night in silk?
This was similar to being admitted to a famous university to organize a banquet.
The night before yesterday, Lin Zhuo had already completed the thousand households.
Most of Lin Zhuo’s old friends and classmates were here. There were dozens of them.
The crowd flattered Lin Zhuo one after another, and Lin Zhuo was overjoyed.
There was nothing better in life than this.
But there was also a huge regret.
There was one person who did not come.
That person was Wang Ben.
Of course, it wasn’t because Lin Zhuo and Wang Bei were close.
It was the exact opposite.
Wang Ben had passed the provincial high examination at a young age and had been showing off in front of Lin Zhuo every day.
Aiya, I, Wang Bi, only passed the Imperial examinations at the age of sixteen or seventeen. There are even 14-year-olds in Yue country who passed the Imperial examinations. I’m really far from it.
AI! everyone’s starting point as an official is in the capital, but I can only be the Registrar of Xuanwu city and am only ranked fourth.
Every time Lin Zhuo heard the bragging, he would want to strangle Wang Bei.
However, he still had to put on a smile.
That was because his family was a businessman. He had not even passed the imperial examination yet. He just wanted to act like a grandson.
Brother Wang is amazing, brother Wang is talented, brother Wang is awesome.
Lin Zhuo had said such flattering words countless times.
‘Now, I’m rich and powerful. I’m returning home in glory.’
All the flattery you owe me before, you’d better pay it back.
Spit out all the bootlicking you’ve done to me.
Brother Wang Lian, do you know how much I’ve missed you?
Without you, my acting and showing off would not be complete.
Lin Zhuo could not forget Wang Yu.
Thus, he tried to find out more about Wang Ben and got a unified reply.
Wang Jie had vanished from the face of the earth.
He tried to frame Shen lang but failed. Instead, he was stabbed and stripped of his title.
The most important thing was that he had slept with Liu Wuyan’s concubine and made the mayor a cuckold.
Everyone guessed that Wang Xiao had probably been secretly killed by Liu Wuyan.
It was because city Lord Liu Wuyan’s concubine seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth.
........................
Of course, in Lin Zhuo’s little notebook, Wang Ben was only ranked second.
The number one enemy was Shen lang.
There were two reasons. First, Shen lang married Lin Zhuo’s dream lover, Jin Mulan.
The hatred of his wife being stolen!
Although Jin Mulan didn’t say a word to me, that didn’t stop me from daydreaming. I had already fantasized about marrying him a hundred times in my mind.
It was another person who was infatuated with Jin Mulan. Shen lang had no choice as he had many love rivals.
The second reason was that Shen lang had a feud with the Lin family.
It was Shen lang who had a grudge against the Lin family, not the Lin family who had a grudge against Shen lang.
On the night of Tian Heng’s death, Lin Mo, the boss of the splendid Pavilion, had not slept for several days. He was so scared that he almost finished writing his will.
Even though Lin Zhuo was a martial arts high scholar, he was not given an official position. It was rumored that he had to guard a remote island.
Then, what if Shen lang sent someone to frame him?
Therefore, not only Lin Mo, but even Lin Zhuo was in constant fear of Shen Lang’s revenge.
This also made him determined.
You, Shen lang, can live off a woman, but I, Lin Zhuo, can’t?
As a result, he became the fiancé of the third young miss of the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu You you.
After that, he also became awesome.
That day, when he visited his father-in-law and asked how the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was doing, the Earl of Jing an said that he was a skeleton in a tomb and did not have long to live.
Then, he asked where Shen lang was. The uncle of Jing an said that a clown was not worth mentioning.
Therefore, Lin Zhuo was more confident now.
As soon as the emperor’s signal was sent out, Lin Zhuo returned to Xuanwu city.
He and Li Wen Zheng hit it off and created the tragedy of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s cavalrymen killing people on the street.
Furthermore, Lin Zhuo immediately detained a dozen cavalrymen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and locked them up in the prison.
I, Lin Zhuo, am not only taking revenge on my enemies, I am also helping the king!
At this moment, a voice came from outside.
“Sir, Shen lang, the son-in-law of the Earl of Xuanwu, requests an audience!”
........................
Lin Zhuo met Shen lang in the side hall of the military camp.
It was Shen Lang’s first time meeting this famous young man in Xuanwu city. He could not help but imagine how Wu Youyou, who weighed more than 150 kilograms, would look like.
They lived off a woman, and Shen Lang’s bowl was a rare delicacy.
On the other hand, Lin Zhuo was eating a basin of lard. It was fine for a man to eat a mouthful of cold lard when he was hungry, but if he ate a basin of lard, he would definitely die.
For the sake of glory, splendor, and wealth, this person really worked hard.
“Young master Lin Zhuo, please send my regards to uncle Jing an,” Shen lang said.
Lin Zhuo replied calmly, ” it’s not appropriate for me to say this. After all, you’re just a live-in son-in-law. It’s not appropriate for you to greet an important official like my father-in-law. It would be more appropriate if Jin mucong and Jin Mulan were the ones to say that.”
He really couldn’t wait to show off and slap her in the face.
I, Lin Zhuo, still have a sense of superiority when facing you, Shen lang. You’re just a live-in son-in-law of the palace of the Earl, while I’m the real son-in-law. Furthermore, I’m a powerful son-in-law with military power. I have a bright future ahead of me.
Moreover, the palace of the Earl of Jingan that I’m in is more impressive than the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
“Li wenzheng is dead,” Shen lang said.
Lin Zhuo was stunned and stopped talking.
The news that li wenzheng had an affair with he Wanwan had spread like wildfire in the capital, but he couldn’t say it out loud.
the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s cavalrymen ran into innocent people, ” Shen lang said. the truth of this matter isn’t important, right? ”
“Yes, the truth is not important.” Lin Zhuo nodded.
Not every case needed to be solved.
“Lord Lin, please release the innocent soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu,” Shen lang said.
Lin Zhuo shook his head, ” no, they’ve committed a grave crime. They trampled on the people on the streets and killed them. Of course, I have to find out who the mastermind is and hand it over to the governor’s office. We’ll interrogate them tonight.
“The thousand households Bureau doesn’t have the right to torture people,” Shen lang said.
Lin Zhuo said, ” the road where the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s cavalrymen trampled on people belongs to the officers of the salt Mountain thousand households. Furthermore, the few people who were trampled to death were the family members of my soldiers. I suspect that this is a murder. In order to get justice for my subordinates, of course I have to interrogate them.”
Shen lang did not say anything.
Lin Zhuo said, ” I heard that the leader of this cavalry is a woman. Her name is Jin jianniang. She’s very beautiful. I really can’t bear to destroy her.
“Brother Lin Zhuo, what do I have to do for you to release the cavalrymen of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu?” Shen lang asked.
“Two options!” Lin Zhuo replied.
“I’d like to hear the details!” Shen lang said.
Lin Zhuo said,”the first option is, of course, for Jin Mulan to lead the Army of the palace of the Earl to attack and take them away.” Of course, this would be considered a rebellion. I believe that my father-in-law and Governor Zhang Ji would be laughing in their dreams.”
“What about the second option?” Shen lang asked.
Lin Zhuo said,”you want me to beg for forgiveness and my father.” You don’t need to kneel down and kowtow, you just need to bow in public.”
your father betrayed me, ” Shen lang said. I have never offended him.
Lin Zhuo said, ” that’s why he’s so worried. On the day Tian Heng died, he even wrote his will. He even told me to hide in the capital and not come back. Do you know how humiliated I was back then?”
“A man is not a gentleman if he doesn’t take revenge.” Lin Zhuo said calmly,”Shen lang, you’re just a live-in son-in-law, yet you know how to take revenge.” I’m the son-in-law of the Earl of Jing ‘an. How can I not know this? In this world, it was either the east wind overpowering the West Wind, or the West Wind overpowering the east wind. Xuanwu city could probably only accommodate one powerful young man. Between the two of us, one of us has to bow our heads, don’t you think?”
No wonder Lin Zhuo was so confident.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was a thorn in the monarch’s side.
And the Earl of Jing ‘an was the king’s favorite, a trusted subordinate.
Although he didn’t have a fief or a private army, the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu Zhao, who controlled an Army of tens of thousands of soldiers, did indeed look down on the Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo.
In his eyes, the destruction of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was only a matter of time.
The two of them were enemies. The Earl of Jing an was The King’s Henchman, while Lin Zhuo was the Earl of Jing an’s henchman.
It was only natural for him to attack Shen lang.
Lin Zhuo said,”Shen lang, a wise man submits to circumstances.” You only need to bow and apologize to my father and me, and you can take away the dozen cavalrymen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. Otherwise, after tomorrow, it would be hard to say what would happen to that Jin jianniang and the dozen cavalrymen. At that time, everyone will say that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu can’t even protect its own soldiers and will lose all its face.”
Shen lang smiled at Lin Zhuo. I’ll go back and think about it. I’ll give you an answer tomorrow. What do you think? ”
Lin Zhuo said,”alright, I’ll go and prepare some yellow paper and firecrackers.” Find some guests to witness the process of you and I burying the hatchet with a smile.”
Then, Shen lang left!
Lin Zhuo was overjoyed when he saw Shen Lang’s dejected look.
Hahahaha!
Shen lang, you’ve had your day too.
It was amazing to have a backer, and he could do whatever he wanted.
Shen lang, your backing is not as good as mine!
Lin Zhuo missed Wang Ben even more when he was feeling proud of himself.
Brother Wang Lian, where are you?
I really miss you.
I’ve flattered you so many times in the past, and you’ve shown off so many times in front of me.
At this moment, Lin Zhuo’s confidant ran over.
“Master, I’ve heard some news.”
“Speak,” Lin Zhuo said.
“On the day of Lord Zhang Jin’s engagement banquet, after Wang Cong made a fool of himself and left, he was abducted halfway through. At the banquet, someone saw city Lord Liu Wuyan giving a look to his trusted warrior, and then that warrior left in a hurry.”
“As expected, Liu Wuyan captured Wang Ben. I really hope he doesn’t die!” Lin Zhuo said.
..............................
Lin Zhuo’s attack was so sudden that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was caught off guard.
As soon as the monarch’s signal came down, these people pounced on him one after another, almost tearing all pretenses of cordiality.
Even a military giant like the Earl of Jing ‘an couldn’t help but fight to be the emperor’s pawn.
At this time, could the Earl of Xuanwu lead his Army to attack?
That would be a rebellion. The Earl of Dongjiang was a good example. He was still a corpse.
The reason why Lin Zhuo, a vice chiliarch, was so fearless was because he had the uncle of Jing an backing him up.
And there was an even worse sign.
The Earl of Jing an and Zhang Ji had the tendency to join forces. In addition, there was the feud of the Jin family in the North, the palace of the Earl of Jin hai.
Was this a ten-sided ambush?
However, for Shen lang, it was as easy as blowing off dust to break this move!
..................
In that secret room!
In this half a month, Wang Ben had experienced unprecedented despair and pain.
His rabies had not broken out yet, but Shen lang had used some method to make him think that it had broken out. He started to have a fever, numbness, pain, and itchiness.
Of course, what he couldn’t bear the most was the intense pain. It was so painful that he wished he was dead.
Wang Lian did not believe that Shen lang could cure him. However, every time Shen lang used the medicine, he would really stop hurting.
One time, two times, three times.
Wang Ben treated Shen Lang as his Savior. Even though he had heard that there was no way to save someone after being bitten by a Mad Dog, who would want to die if they could live?
Moreover, every time he was in extreme pain, Shen lang would save him from the edge of hell.
One dose of godly medicine and he was no longer in pain or itch. However, each batch of godly medicine could only last for three days. Soon, the pain would act up again, and rashes would appear all over the body.
Therefore, he treated Shen Lang as his life-saving straw.
Now that he had acted up again, he was in so much pain that he wanted to die, and he rolled on the ground desperately.
benefactor, save me! Benefactor, save me Qianqian! when Wang Lian saw Shen lang, she said, ” “Are you here to send me godly medicine?”
Shen lang said, ” that’s right. Also, from tomorrow onwards, I will increase the dosage of the godly medicine by 30%. This way, you will be able to maintain your condition for five days. You will be fully recovered in about two months.
“Thank you, benefactor! Thank you, benefactor!” Wang He was ecstatic.
“Wang Ben, I need you to do something,” Shen lang said.
“I’ll go through water and tread on fire without hesitation,” Wang Lian kowtowed.
Shen lang said, ” your old friend, Lin Zhuo, is back. He has become the son-in-law of the Earl of Jing ‘an. He has struck it rich. He misses you very much.
Wang Qian’s brain, which had been damaged from all the sucking, immediately regained a little bit of clarity. He said, ” he’s just trying to show off in front of me. Before this, he was like a dog that knelt and fawned over me. Now that he’s rich, he wants me to kneel and lick his boots.
At this moment, Wang Yan’s eyes revealed a trace of resentment.
Why did the people who kneeled and licked me before become rich? why did they have a better life than me?
Shen lang said,”since he wants to see you so much, why don’t you give him a surprise and go see him?” After that, we’ll drink a little wine tonight and accidentally get drunk. We’ll drug him while we’re at it, then take the opportunity to bite his neck and finally sleep on the same bed. What do you think?”
After hearing Shen Lang’s words, Wang Lian’s scalp turned numb.
Due to the illness acting up, his brain was not working well. He also felt that Shen Lang’s benefactor was still as scary as ever!
