Chapter 114: Shen lang, you’re so ruthless! Another family!
Translator: 549690339
Even though Lin Zhuo was the one getting married and not marrying into their family, the wedding ceremony had to be held at the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an.
Of course, the Lin family would also hold a ceremony, but it would be on a much smaller scale.
This time, the Earl of Jing ‘an’s residence had sent one of Wu Youyou’s uncles to the Lin family to discuss the marriage. His name was Wu zhaoyin.
This person’s status was not high, but his seniority was relatively high.
After he arrived at Xuanwu city, he was immediately received with high standards.
Not only did Lin Mo find Xu Guangyun, but he also invited city Lord Liu Wuyan.
Zhang Pu and Lin Zhuo were not present since they were the younger generation. The discussion of marriage could only be carried out between the elders.
Of course, the so-called discussion was just a one-sided notification.
After receiving the warm hospitality, Wu zhaoyin stayed over at the Lin residence that night.
The next day, before dawn, a soldier suddenly came to the Lin family, saying that Lord Lin Zhuo had something to discuss with Wu zhaoyin.
Wu zhaoyin was old and had a light sleep. He had been drinking and reciting poems late last night. He had only slept for less than four hours before he was woken up. Of course, he was unhappy.
However, Lin Zhuo said that he had something important to discuss with him, so he did not delay. After washing up, he took the bus to thousand households in Salt Mountain unhappily.
By the time they arrived at their destination, the sun had already risen.
“What important matter does your Lord have that he actually called me over before dawn?” Wu zhaoyin said angrily.
However, he realized that the soldier who had come to deliver the news had long disappeared.
As a result, he was even more furious and directly charged into the thousand households “office in Salt Mountain.
He was completely stunned and could not believe his eyes.
Lin Zhuo, are you crazy?
Do you still have any respect for the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an?
Do you still want your reputation? Don’t you want your face?
For a moment, Wu zhaoyin pointed at Lin Zhuo. His entire body trembled, and he could not even speak.
“Aiya, I’m going blind. I ... I’m still a child. Why do you want me to see this?”
At this moment, an exaggerated voice came from the side. One could tell that it was Shen Lang as he was especially pretentious.
Shen lang had also brought Jin Zhong and the rest!
........................
Lin Zhuo’s brain was about to explode.
The first time he opened his eyes and saw Wang Ben’s sinister smile, he was already stunned.
When he saw Wu zhaoyin again, he really wished he could immediately faint.
This was his fiancée’s family uncle. Although he didn’t have much power in the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an, his seniority was very high, and he was very conservative.
Lin Zhuo, don’t you have any sense of shame after what you’ve done? ”
Finally, Wu zhaoyin roared.
Lin Zhuo felt a chill down his spine as cold sweat broke out on his back.
At this moment, he could no longer care about his shame.
His future was the most important, but his fate was the most important.
Immediately, he broke free from Wang Jie’s pestering and knelt down in front of Wu zhaoyin, saying, ” “Uncle, please listen to my explanation, please listen to my explanation, I was framed by someone Yingluo!”
“My Lord, please seek justice for your student.” He didn’t expect Wang Jie to be even faster. He directly knelt in front of Wu zhaoyin, hugged his legs, and sobbed, ” “Lin Zhuo has been sending people to look for me for the past few days. I thought there was something important, so I came to see him last night. Who knew that this beast would actually get me drunk.”
my Lord, although I, Wang Jie, was stripped of my scholarly honor, I was once a high scholar and the Registrar of Xuanwu city.
Lin Zhuo, I’m going to Sue you! I’m going to Sue you!
Lin Zhuo was completely stunned.
He had not even opened his mouth, and Wang Ben had bitten him first?
Shen lang said,”Wang Ben, although I’m your enemy, I’m not your enemy.” However, I’m a righteous person by nature, and I can’t bear to see such a tragedy. I support you to Sue him. Don’t worry about being killed. I’ll let the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu protect you. You can go to the Governor’s Palace and report to the Governor. In short, you must be given an explanation.”
“Even a Prince is guilty of the same crime as a commoner, let alone a mere vice thousand-man commander.” “I don’t believe that there is no justice in this world,” Shen lang said righteously.
Lin Zhuo finally reacted.
He immediately looked at Shen lang with hatred and said, ” Shen lang, you tricked me? ”
Shen lang sneered,”what does this have to do with me?” You were the one who told me yesterday to come and find you before today and apologize to you. Only then would you be willing to release the innocent soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. I’ve been here since early morning, but I didn’t expect to see such a terrifying scene.”
Then, Shen lang said, ” guards, protect Wang Lian. No matter how much he has offended me, he is still a distant relative of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. Wang Lian, I will bring you to the governor’s residence to file a complaint.
Then, Shen lang waved his hand.
Jin Zhong and the others took a cloak and wrapped it around Wang He. They were about to take him away to the governor’s mansion to complain.
“Hold on!” The one who opened his mouth to stop them was actually the Earl of Jing ‘an’s residence, Wu zhaoyin.
Of course, he could tell that Lin Zhuo had been set up by someone. This was all Shen Lang’s scheme.
“Elder, do you have any advice?” Shen lang asked.
Of course, Wu zhaoyin could not allow Shen lang to bring Wang Lian to the governor’s residence to complain. Even though they were not married yet, Lin Zhuo was Wu Youyou’s fiancé.
If Shen lang brought Wang Lian along to complain, the matter would blow up and create a shocking scandal. It would deal a huge blow to the reputation of the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an.
“Do you have any requests?” Wu zhaoyin asked directly.
over ten cavalrymen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu were detained by thousand-man commander Lin Zhuo for no reason, ” Shen lang said. I’m here to get them.
“In your dreams!” Lin Zhuo was about to blurt out.
But Wu zhaoyin directly said,”release them.” &Nbsp;
Lin Zhuo was stunned, but he did not dare to disobey. He immediately ordered for the cavalrymen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to be released.
After a while, the dozen of people appeared in front of Shen lang.
Although these people looked Haggard and had wounds on their bodies, they were not in danger of dying.
The main issue was Jin jianniang. Her clothes were still intact, and it seemed like she had not been humiliated.
However, she was still the same as before. When she saw Shen lang, her face immediately turned red, and it was as if she had nowhere to put her hands and feet. One really could not tell that she was a skilled Knight.
What a sin. It’s really frustrating to be so handsome because there are countless women who have a crush on you.
“Lord Lin Zhuo, I’ll take my leave now.” Shen lang said, ” this Wang Lian is too pitiful. I was worried that you would kill him. Therefore, I brought him along.
Then, Shen lang brought the cavalrymen from the palace of the Earl and Wang Lian away.
This didn’t suit his style, right?
He had never been at a disadvantage. Now that the cavalrymen of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu were detained and whipped, Shen lang left just like that without any more vicious revenge?
This was because Shen lang was afraid that he would ruin the more exciting story.
..................
After Shen lang left with Wang Lian and the rest.
All the people in the hall had left.
Lin Zhuo quickly found a set of clothes and put them on before kneeling in front of Wu zhaoyin.
“Uncle, I was set up by someone, Yingluo.”
Wu zhaoyin immediately stopped him from defending himself.
Lin Zhuo, being framed is even more shameful than your scandal with Wang Bei. Do you understand? ”
This sentence clearly showed the difference in thinking between commoners and nobles.
In the eyes of the nobles, it didn’t matter if your private life was messy, as long as you were good enough.
However, being framed was being incompetent, and that was the greatest sin.
“Why were you framed? It’s because you’ve been floating. Ever since you became the husband of our Wu family, you’ve been like a man in the clouds. You think you can do whatever you want with a big backer. Look at what you’ve done since you returned to Xuanwu city. The first thing you did was to attract your scoundrel friends to show off.”
“If you didn’t want to show off so much, how could Wang He have gotten away with it?”
Wu zhaoyin’s words could be said to strike the heart.
Lin Zhuo was embarrassed when he recalled what he had done in the past few days.
He used to be a very smart person. How did he become so careless all of a sudden?
young man, you should look at your feet and not at the sky. Otherwise, you’ll fall.
“Of course, it’s nothing for a young man to suffer a little setback. At the very least, the fall would serve as a warning to them that they wouldn’t die from falling from such a height. If you fall from a higher place in the future, you’ll be crushed to pieces.”
“The key is that you’ve shown us that you’re incompetent this time. We’re very disappointed. How can we believe that you can take on heavy responsibilities in the future? How can we believe that you can become the representative of the palace of the Earl of Jingan in Xuanwu city, and even in Nujiang County?”
“Uncle, please teach me,” Lin Zhuo immediately kowtowed.
Wu zhaoyin said, ” something like this has happened. It’s neither a big deal nor a small one. Whether you and you you’re going to continue with your marriage is entirely up to her father. Do you know what you should say to him when you see him?”
“Uncle, please teach me,” Lin Zhuo kowtowed again.
Wu zhaoyin said,”after you see the family head, don’t make any excuses. Don’t even mention that You’ve Been Framed.” You only need to say four words, courage after shame! You tried so hard to reflect on your own arrogance that Shen lang took the opportunity to frame you. What you need to do is to reflect on yourself and magnify your own shortcomings by ten times, a hundred times. You have to show that you are more heartbroken and disappointed than anyone else. He might even take the initiative to break off his engagement with you you. That way, he might have a chance of survival.”
Lin Zhuo was instantly amazed.
The Earl of Jing ‘an’s residence was indeed impressive. This clan Earl didn’t hold any important positions, but he was actually an expert.
Wu zhaoyin continued,”if you still can’t change the family head’s mind, then you can pull out your sword and commit suicide. You can say that you’d rather die than Sully the reputation of the palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an.” At this time, you must be decisive and ruthless. You must really cut your own neck, but remember to avoid the main artery. You must practice with the wooden sword dozens of times.”
Lin Zhuo said, ” father-in-law is a Big Shot in the military. He’s seen through countless people. No matter how realistic my acting is, he’ll definitely see through it, right? ”
Wu zhaoyin sneered, ” of course he’d see through me. How could I really commit suicide? ” It’s precisely because he can see through me that I have to show off.”
“Uncle, please guide me,” Lin Zhuo kowtowed.
Wu zhaoyin said, ” he can see that your self-praise is a performance. But this also shows another quality of yours. You’re shameless enough and good at acting. What was the most important thing for a political mission? It’s just acting!”
“Also, you boasted that your acting was so realistic that you directly cut your own neck. What does this prove? You’re ruthless enough. If you’re so ruthless to yourself, you’ll naturally be even more ruthless to your enemies. You’re so good at acting and so ruthless, how could the master not be impressed with you? He will feel that you are someone worth nurturing. When that time comes, you and you you’ll be able to continue your marriage.”
An expert, he was really an expert.
Lin Zhuo was in awe.
Who would have thought that this nameless clan uncle would actually be so profound?
Could it be that every member of the noble family was so awesome?
Shen lang, just you wait. When I recover from this, I will definitely return the humiliation I suffered today ten times over.
And at this moment, Wu zhaoyin indifferently said, ” “You should prepare to go to Jing ‘an city to see the patriarch. Also, go back and tell your father to pay me three times more!”
..............................
In the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
“Father-in-law, this Wu zhaoyin seems to be very impressive,” Shen lang said.
The Earl frowned slightly.
He personally felt very uncomfortable with the word ‘awesome’.
However, he now understood that in this world, only others could adapt to Shen lang and not Shen lang could adapt to the world.
The Earl already knew how impressive his son-in-law was.
AI!
What a pity, why isn’t he my son?
However, there was nothing to feel pity about.
He’s my son.
At the end of the day, she was a good child, a very good child.
“This Wu zhaoyin is of course very impressive.” “More than 20 years ago, he fought with the Earl of Jing ‘an for the position of Crown Prince,” the Earl explained.
As soon as he said this.
Shen lang and uncle Black Tortoise looked at Jin mucong at the same time.
This fat otaku was still copying books.
AI!
Shen lang and uncle Black Tortoise sighed at the same time.
If the Earl had a second son, this fat otaku wouldn’t be a problem.
The Earl of Jing ‘an’s two outstanding sons were already fighting for the position of Crown Prince at this age, but you were still copying homework?
Jin mucong, on the other hand, was a fat otaku. He became the Crown Prince with his eyes closed. This world was really unfair.
Jin mucong’s neck shrank when he felt the two pairs of eyes on him. He said weakly, ” “Why are you looking at me?”
“Then how did Wu zhaoyin lose?” Shen lang asked.
“If you can’t have children, you won’t have an heir,” uncle Black Tortoise replied.
Ah, so miserable.
At this moment, there was a sudden clamor outside.
Why was there another commotion?
A moment later, Jin Zhong came in and reported.
“Master, son-in-law, it’s a commoner from the fief who requests an audience.”
Did you hear that? Jin Zhong directly said master, son-in-law, no Prince.
However, Jin mucong did not care at all.
When it came to important matters, he would not wait for others to ignore him. He would ignore himself first.
I don’t care about your business. My world is only copying homework.
..............................
The Earl of Xuanwu and Shen lang arrived outside the palace of the Earl’s Castle.
Immediately, the dozens of elders in front knelt down in unison.
“Greetings to the count.”
Uncle Black Tortoise hurriedly went forward to help the oldest village elder up and said, ” “You are all older than me, how can you bow like this? get up, get up!”
Dozens of old folks stood up.
“Elders, is there a reason why you’ve come to see me?” uncle Black Tortoise asked.
One of the old men said, ” under the care of the palace of the Earl, the Mulberry leaves are growing well this year. The silkworms are not seriously ill either. There is a bumper harvest of silkworm cocoons this year. There are nearly 20% more than in previous years.
this is a good thing, ” uncle Xuanwu said. after selling the cocoons, everyone will be able to live more comfortably.
“Isn’t that so?” the old man said. Everyone was very happy and felt that they would be able to live a good life this year. They were all grateful for the palace of the Earl’s kindness. Who knew that after we sent the cocoons to Xuanwu city, they wouldn’t accept them?”
You’re not accepting it?
In the past years, the silkworm cocoons had been harvested well, but this year, they said they would not be harvesting anymore?
Out of the 100000 people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, 70% of them made a living by raising silkworms.
The annual income from silkworm breeding was much higher than that of planting rice.
The farmers in the fief used most of their fields and mountains to plant mulberry trees and raise silkworms. A portion of the money earned from selling the cocoons was used to pay taxes to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, another portion was used to buy food, and the remaining was used for household expenses.
As the taxes from the palace of the Earl were not high, the farmers in the fief had a good life raising silkworms, which was better than the other farmers in Xuanwu city.
Two years ago, many farmers on their fief had spent a lot of money in exchange for better Mulberry saplings, so that they could produce more leaves.
But now, he actually didn’t want to collect these cocoons?
This was going to be a big problem.
This meant that the hard work of nearly 100000 farmers in the fief for nearly half a year had been in vain. Without money, how would they pay taxes to the palace of the Earl, how would they buy food, and how would they feed their wives and children?
The whole family was counting on selling the cocoons to make a living.
Of the palace of the Earl’s annual income, a quarter of it came from the taxes from the silkworms. Once the palace of the Earl stopped collecting taxes, it would face a serious financial crisis.
Furthermore, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had to pay off the debt to the yin Yuan Association every six months. Without this money, the gold chain would be broken.
The most important thing was that if the 100000 people in the fief didn’t have money to buy grain, it would be a big mess.
“If Xu Guangyun doesn’t accept it, won’t Lin Mo from the beautiful Pavilion accept it as well?” the Earl said.
“That’s right, both of them don’t accept the cocoons produced in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief,” the village elder said.
The Earl said, ” in the past years, there were silk merchants from other counties who came to collect cocoons. They were even competing to bid. Did they not come this year? ”
no, ” the elder replied. none of the silk merchants from the other counties came. They could only sell to the Xu family or the Lin family. However, these two clans deliberately targeted us and publicly ordered that they were not allowed to take our cocoons. Not only did they not take them, but they also said that there would not be a single silk merchant in the entire Tiannan province who would take our cocoons.”
This was a serious matter.
There were insects inside the cocoon. If it was not processed within a certain period of time, the insects inside would become moths and bite through the cocoon to fly out. At that time, the cocoon would be half destroyed.
This was an economic attack on the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. The Xu family and the Lin family were only the controllers. Behind them were Zhang Ji and Zhu Rong. If not, there would be a silk merchant from other places.
master Xu and his daughter even publicly announced that they want them to take the cocoons from our fief, ” the elder said. unless the son-in-law talks to her personally, they’ll let our cocoons rot at home and let us starve to death.
Shen Lang’s eyes narrowed. This again?
Lin Zhuo was almost killed by me just now, and he’s not far from death. You, Xu Guangyun, Xu Qianqian, are still playing this trick?
However, this was also part of the plan.
That’s just right!
It would be the new year in a few months, and Shen lang could kill the fat pig from the Xu family to celebrate the new year.
Shen lang smiled,”sure, I’ll go talk to the Xu family now.” &Nbsp;
Instantly, dozens of elders knelt down before Shen lang and said, ” “Many thanks to Guye for saving my life.”
..............................
Shen lang went to the Xu family to negotiate with Xu Guangyun and Xu Qianqian.
This ex-wife didn’t waste any time and directly stated her conditions. After Shen Lang’s repeated torture, she seemed to have become colder and stronger.
Shen lang, you want us to collect the cocoons from the farmers in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu? ”
the conditions are simple. You hand over the formulas for the purple and rainbow dyes for free, and we can consider buying the cocoons produced in your fief at a lower price. That’s right, a lower price.
“Otherwise, I’ll let the cocoons of your 100000 people rot in your homes and let them starve to death. How about you find a way to ship these cocoons outside of Yue country to sell? However, you don’t have any official documents for such a large batch of goods, so it’s better to just rot at home.”
Shen lang, you should have expected this day to come when you offended us.
