Translator: 549690339
(Congratulations to the great lawyer Yu for becoming the new alliance master of this book. I’m so grateful that I’m about to cry. I’m asking for a vote by the way.)
“How was his performance along the way?” The king, ning yuanxian asked.
“Swaggering and unscrupulous,” the great eunuch replied.
The monarch didn’t speak. The sixth Prince Ning Jing said, ” “How unscrupulous?”
he’s just a live-in son-in-law, ” the high eunuch said. but he’s as ostentatious as a Governor. He has more than a hundred cavalrymen by his side to protect him. When he stays in the resting point of each county, he must book the best courtyard. If there are officials below the governor’s rank living in that courtyard, he will send troops to expel them.”
He was indeed arrogant.
Even a true noble would not dare to do this.
Especially the sons of the old noble families, each one more low-key than the other.
“When we entered the capital, I took a look at his expression to see if he was shocked by this tough city. In the end, he pouted his mouth as if he looked down on it,” the eunuch said.
The sixth Prince, Ning Jing, said, ” yuedu is a magnificent and magnificent treasure. Ordinary aristocrats would be intimidated if they came. He’s just a country boy, but he still looks down on it. It’s really interesting. I’m afraid he has great ambitions.
The king, ning yuanxian, did not speak.
The head eunuch continued,”I brought him to the Xuanwu Gate on purpose, but he looked up and said,” I’m sorry.” Aiyo, I’m home. Your Majesty, this brat’s insolence can be seen. He actually dared to say that the Xuanwu Gate is his family’s Gate. He has a disloyal heart.”
The monarch’s face twitched slightly.
In his heart, he was cursing his ancestor. Could the Black Tortoise be casually sealed?
Look at the other countries, which one of them had a title of Xuanwu?
Why don’t you call me Azure Dragon count? However, the first emperor was a martial arts practitioner and did not study much. He was also very overbearing and could not accept opposing opinions. However, he had the same thoughts as the first generation uncle Xuanwu, so what could he do?
The emperors of the later generations wanted to change this title, but they couldn’t.
what’s even more infuriating is yet to come, ” the high eunuch said. we met her Highness the third Princess on the Xuanwu Avenue.
The eldest Princess, Ning Luo, was twenty-eight years old this year. She was married to the king of Nan ou, Jin Jun.
The second Princess, Ning Han, was 26 years old this year. She was known as the most beautiful woman in Yue country almost ten years ago. However, he had already completely disappeared from everyone’s sight. No one knew where he went.
Of course, it was mentioned in the previous article that she had followed the leader of the sky-Sea Pavilion, zuoci, overseas.
The princess’s fiancé had undergone a drastic change and was still unmarried. This was also a pain in the king’s heart. This Ning Han was his most beloved Pearl in his palm.
The third Princess, Ning Ying, was 24 years old and married.
However, she had a violent personality and had already fallen out with her husband’s family. She lived in yuedu all year round and was arrogant and domineering, so no one dared to provoke her.
“What did she do?” The monarch said.
“The third Princess is currently racing horses,” the high eunuch replied.
It sounded like a serious problem to openly race horses on Xuanwu Avenue, and it might hurt innocent people.
In fact, it would not.
Although the Grand Road of Xuan Wu in the State of Yue was not as wide as the one in the great Yan Empire, it was still 90 meters wide.
You’re right, the 90-meter wide Xuanwu Avenue is equivalent to a 30-Lane modern highway.
The Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Avenue in the Empire of Yan were 150 meters wide.
Of course, the Vermilion Bird Avenue of the Tang Empire in ancient China was also 150 meters wide.
It was simply a little upending. Why would they need such a wide road?
And this 90-meter wide Xuanwu Avenue, the middle 60 meters were mostly empty. Originally, it was stipulated that only the royal family could walk on it.
However, this rule gradually changed, and many influential people also began to leave.
On the other hand, ordinary people and minor officials could only walk on the two sides of the main road.
Therefore, no matter how crazy the third Princess, Ning Yan, was, she would not hit ordinary people.
“Nonsense!” The monarch cursed, but he didn’t say anything else.
He felt guilty towards this daughter of his, so he indulged a little.
“When we saw the third princess’s team, we quickly retreated to the sides and knelt on the ground,” the high eunuch said. However, Shen lang, this live-in son-in-law, did not get off the carriage. Instead, he sat on the carriage and opened the window to look at the third princess’s body. He even commented on her. ”
“What did he comment on?” the monarch asked.
“I dare not repeat it, it’s too much,” the high eunuch said.
“Speak,” he said. The monarch said.
he said that this woman has a good figure, ” the high eunuch said. her hips are big enough, and her waist is wild enough. It’s just that her thighs are too thick.
The monarch’s expression changed immediately.
“He’s looking for death. How dare he offend third sister like this? he’s looking for death,” Ning Jing said angrily.
not only that, ” the eunuch said, ” he also said that he’s been away from home for too long. He can’t even hold himself back when he sees a woman of this level.
What did this mean? he actually disdained the princess of the ning family?
hahaha! the monarch’s face turned green and he said coldly, ” “Does this kid really not fear death?”
Ning Jing said,”father, it can be seen that this b * stard doesn’t put the ning family in his eyes at all. He has no respect for the ruler and is extremely arrogant.” &Nbsp;
“Where is he?” the monarch asked.
“He’s waiting in the benevolence Pavilion,” the great eunuch replied.
“Are you still respectful?” the monarch asked.
The high eunuch said, ” ordinary people, even the border officials, are all kneeling when they are waiting for Your Majesty to summon them. But he actually found a chair and sat down. He even asked if there was tea. He is extremely rude and simply makes people look at him with surprise.
The monarch’s expression turned even uglier.
“Then let him wait.”
There was a detail that the eunuch did not mention. Not long after they entered the capital, they met a group of overbearing Warriors from the Qiang Kingdom. Shen lang even called them idiots.
............
In the benevolent Pavilion of the Royal Palace of Yue country.
The young eunuch gritted his teeth in hatred.
This was because when ordinary officials came, they would hand over a gold coin and ask him to point out where they should kneel.
Most of the gold bricks in the benevolence Pavilion were solid, only three of them were hollow.
A solid gold brick wouldn’t make a sound even if you cracked your head, but a hollow gold brick would make a Dong Dong sound if you knocked it a little. Wouldn’t that show that you respected His Majesty?
Of course, the gold bricks here were not real gold. They were just yellow floor tiles.
Of course, you might say that with so many officials here to pay an audience with the monarch, wasn’t the news that the gold brick was hollow already known?
This was true.
However, eunuchs often changed the positions of the hollow gold bricks in order to make money. The monarch also knew that, but he turned a blind eye to such a small matter. After all, they were all servants, and there was nothing wrong with helping him to knock down the officials below.
When the eunuch heard that the person who came today was a live-in son-in-law of a noble, he planned to extort a large sum of money.
He didn’t expect that after coming, he didn’t kneel at all, but sat on the chair when he saw it.
The young eunuch angrily scolded him for being so bold. There was no place for a little live-in son-in-law here. Quickly kneel down.
In the end, Shen lang asked me to kneel when the monarch was not around. Do you want me to kneel to you? Are you enjoying the same treatment as the monarch?
Instantly, the young eunuch’s anger subsided.
F * ck, you’re looking for death, but I don’t want to be unhappy.
No matter how he continued this, it was wrong.
Therefore, Shen lang sat in the benevolence Pavilion and waited.
He waited from dawn to dark until he was drowsy, hungry, and cold.
This was the emperor’s way of lowering his prestige.
When he asked for tea, no one paid him any attention.
He wanted pastries, but no one paid him any attention.
Just when Shen lang thought that he was going to spend the night in the benevolence Pavilion ...
All the eunuchs outside knelt down.
“We welcome Your Majesty!”
Shen lang immediately got up and knelt down.
It was said that transmigrators had strong waists and strong knees, and were unwilling to kneel.
Of course, Shen lang was unwilling to do so.
However, his knees were not that precious. At a critical moment, he could even kneel to his wife, let alone the king.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
I’ll die if I don’t kneel. I don’t believe that you transmigrators are so stubborn.
Student Shen lang greets Your Majesty.
Shen Lang’s forehead touched the ground and he did not kowtow.
The king, ning yuanxian, walked in and sat down.
“Raise your head,”
Shen lang raised his head.
Then, he couldn’t help but be startled.
F * ck!
This King actually had such a good face?
He was a top-class handsome man!
And he didn’t look mean or ungrateful at all. He was born noble, but at the same time, he also had a bit of elegance.
He was not wearing a dragon robe. (The Dragon robe worn by the king of Yue was a four-clawed Golden Dragon, while the one worn by the Emperor of Great Yan was a five-clawed Golden Dragon)
He was wearing a black silk suit, but upon closer inspection, one could see that there was a four-clawed Golden Dragon on it. However, it was very faint, and even had the feeling of a banknote’s watermark.
That’s awesome!
This was a low-key luxury.
Master Lang’s desire to embroider his robe full of gold silk was a little flamboyant and vulgar.
Shen lang did some calculations in his mind.
The king’s robe was worth at least a thousand gold coins.
That was because every thread on it had been carefully selected.
The four-clawed Golden dragon’s eyes were embroidered on it after being crushed with the best Ruby.
The Dragon scales were also embroidered on bit by bit with fragments of gemstones.
These gemstones were very hard, so how did they get embroidered? Shen lang did not dare to imagine it.
You really can’t judge a book by its cover. Who would’ve thought that the fickle-minded and unkind ning yuanxian would actually have such a good appearance?
Who did he look like? A perfect old man who could compose 10000 poems?
Furthermore, he was only a few years younger than uncle Black Tortoise, yet he looked extremely young, as if he was only in his thirties.
He was so good at maintaining his health. Did he eat some dates?
Along the way, Shen lang was wondering what questions this Supreme martial artist of Yue country would ask him.
How would he test if he had any intention of rebellion?
He had been monitored the entire time.
Every word and action was, of course, reported to the king by the eunuch.
The monarch should be furious.
After all, Shen lang treated his daughter, ning Yushi, and even despised her for having thick legs. Therefore, the monarch’s next question would be very crucial, even related to his fate.
Shen lang, now that your family has taken down raging tide city, what are your plans? ” The monarch asked.
Was he that direct?
“Your Majesty, are you telling the truth?” Shen lang asked.
The monarch frowned.
Of course I’m telling the truth. Do you dare to lie to the Emperor?
I can speak the truth, ” Shen lang said. Your Majesty, please block me.
Ning yuanxian’s eyes narrowed at these words.
Fine, Shen lang, you’re just a little live-in son-in-law. It’s fine that you’re arrogant all the way, but now that you’re in front of me, you’re still so arrogant.
“It’s up to you.”
The Masters of the Blackwater tower and a few eunuchs were still standing around.
“Then I’ll tell you,” Shen lang said.
The monarch’s patience had reached its limit.
“Next, I want to take revenge. I want to kill su Nan, the Duke of Zhenyuan,” Shen lang said.
“Impudent!” “The Duke of Zhenyuan is the junior guardian of the crown Prince. How can you call him by his name? didn’t the uncle of Xuanwu teach you the rules?” ning yuanxian rebuked. You still dare to be so impudent in front of me, are you really looking down on the ruler?”
Shen lang said, ” the SU clan and my family have a blood feud. That day, father-in-law was fighting against Qiu Tianwei at gazing Cliff Island. I was attacking raging tide city. Su jianting actually led more than 100 Western Region experts to invade the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and started a massacre. He killed more than 100 people in my family and injured my wife and mother-in-law. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly and give my family Justice.”
The monarch’s face turned cold. this banner is shameless. Throw it out! Throw it out!
Then, Shen lang was thrown out of the palace by the Four Masters of the black water platform.
His first meeting with the monarch ended.
........................
When they returned to the Jin family’s courtyard, Xiao Bing rushed up impatiently and said worriedly, ” “How is it? How was it? Did the king hit you?”
no, ” Shen lang said. I felt like old friends when I first met you. We had a good conversation.
“Really?” Xiaobing asked.
Shen lang said, ” how can it be fake? is the meal ready? ” I’m starving.”
Dinner was already prepared.
Mulan’s cooking skills were average, but Bing ‘er’s cooking skills were top-notch.
This time, she had followed her son-in-law into the capital, and her heart was filled with apprehension, but she was more happy.
I can finally be alone with son-in-law and no longer have to eat miss’s leftovers.
But now, he’s mine alone.
I’m sorry, miss. It’s not right for a little girl like me to have such thoughts, but I really can’t help it.
Therefore, during dinner, Bing ‘er stared at Shen lang with anticipation in her eyes.
“Bing ‘er, don’t be like this. Although I’ve left my wife, I can’t let her down.” Shen lang said.
Bing ‘er almost cried. but miss promised me. She even asked me to take good care of him. I don’t want him to be seduced by other women.
Just you?
Shen lang said, ” how about this? I want to stay in the room alone for my wife tonight. You can come and find me tomorrow night.
Bing ‘er was looking at her husband?
What’s the Difference?
Shen lang sighed. Nowadays, there are not many men who are as pure as me.
However, teasing was just teasing.
He really missed Mulan, and he felt empty.
For the past two months, the couple were like conjoined twins. Not only was Mulan unable to leave Shen lang, but Shen lang was also unable to leave Mulan.
“Where’s fatty?” Shen lang said.
“Yeah, where is the young master?” Bing-er said.
“Didn’t you send someone to inform fat otaku that I’m here?” Shen lang asked.
“I forgot about it since you didn’t tell me,” Bing ‘er said.
Ugh!
Shen lang said,”forget it, I will go and see him tomorrow.” Now that you mention it, I really do miss him. I wonder how much he’s been bullied in the Directorate.”
“I don’t miss her at all. I only have my eyes on him.”
Shen lang said, ” it’s no use trying to please me. I want to be alone tonight.
............
In the palace!
Zhang Ji was kneeling on the ground, wearing a prison uniform and heavy shackles.
Zhang Pu was dead, and he had lost raging tide city. Only a few parts of his hair had turned white.
And at this time, most of his hair had already turned white.
He was completely like an old man, no longer showing off his sharp edge.
“I, Zhang Ji, pay my respects to Your Majesty!”
Zhang Ji kowtowed with great difficulty. Because he was shackled, no matter how hard he tried, his head would not hit the ground.
This was the first time he had seen the king after he was arrested and imprisoned.
After he was sent to prison, there was no trial, and no one asked him about corruption.
In addition, in the prison of the Supreme Court, he did not receive any special treatment. He lived in the most ordinary cell and ate the most ordinary prison meals.
His second son, who was an official in the capital, went to the Yamen during the day and knelt outside the Supreme Court at night.
Without the emperor’s decree, he could not go to the prison to see his father, so he could only kneel outside to show that he would go through thick and thin with his father.
He had been doing this for almost two months.
He had practiced to the point where he could sleep on his knees, and his knees were swollen compared to ordinary people.
The king, ning yuanxian, did not speak. The eunuch beside him repeated Shen Lang’s performance.
Including his impudence on the way, the words he said when he entered the Black Tortoise gate, and the rude words he said when he saw the third Princess Ning Yan.
King, ” the eunuch said, ” let me ask you. Is Shen Lang’s performance sincere or is he just acting? ”
“Your Majesty, Shen lang did this from the bottom of his heart. However, he is also acting,” Zhang Ye replied.
“Why do you say so?” the great eunuch asked.
Zhang Ye said,”every single word he said was his true thoughts.” He clearly knew that someone was watching him, but he still said it. This is all an act, to let the king think that he is a man of character.”
“When we met at the benevolence Pavilion, the king asked him what his next step would be after taking over raging tide city.” He said that he wanted to kill Marquis su Nan. Is this true?”
“It’s true,” Zhang Ye said.
The high eunuch said,”the king is asking you if Shen lang is ambitious.” Will they rebel?”
Zhang Ye said,”if I don’t force him, he won’t rebel.” If we force him, he will definitely rebel!”
The monarch’s handsome face turned cold.
He just couldn’t bear to hear the word ‘rebel’.
“King, what is Shen Lang’s dream?” the eunuch asked.
Zhang Ye thought for a while and said,”I’ll enjoy a life of luxury and not suffer any grievances.” &Nbsp;
“What do you mean by not suffering any grievances?” the great eunuch asked.
“If anyone offends him, he’ll kill them all,” Zhang Ye said.
“Then why didn’t he kill you?” the monarch finally spoke.
“Because I’ve never offended him,” Zhang Ye said.
It was indeed so!
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Ji and Shen lang only had political conflicts and no personal grudges.
Therefore, when the winner was decided, the two of them could be said to have let go of all grudges with a smile.
The monarch was playing with the porcelain in his hand.
This porcelain was extremely precious. Not only was it a work of art, but it was also almost transparent.
It was clearly porcelain, but it was like jade.
This cup alone was worth hundreds of gold coins.
However, such porcelain was only good-looking, and it would break with a light knock.
Shen lang was more like a piece of porcelain.
It was exquisite beyond compare.
Everyone said that he was unbearably vulgar.
However, the king could see a kind of temperament from him, a kind of exquisite temperament.
The rarest thing in the world was an exquisite person.
After playing with it for a while, the monarch asked, ” “Zhang San, do you think I should kill Shen lang?”
After he finished speaking, the monarch’s eyes seemed to casually fall on the cup in his hand.
At this moment, Zhang Ji had to blurt it out without thinking it through.
The monarch’s thoughts were different from others.
He doesn’t need the correct answer from you, nor does he need your best answer.
What he wanted was Yingluo’s truth.
“I won’t kill him,” Zhang Ye said.
“Why?” the monarch asked.
“If you use him well, he’s a sharp blade, a sharp blade that’s even sharper than the guilty subject,” Zhang Ye said.

[ note: once the second update is delivered, I’ll go eat and write the third update! ] He timidly asked,”are there still monthly votes?” Can you give it to me?
Thank you to the residents of the small city, Lu Silai, Shangguan Mingjian, and the others for their 10000-Yuan tips.
