Chapter 206: Shen langtian’s big move! Detonating the capital!
Translator: 549690339
(Congratulations to Langli Langlang for becoming the new alliance master of this book. I’m so grateful that I’m shedding tears! I’m begging for monthly votes)
Political correctness was a terrifying word.
No one could disobey.
No matter what you think in your heart, you must not disobey in public, or you will die without a doubt.
No matter how high one’s status was, no matter how powerful one was. Once touched, one would definitely be blown to pieces.
For example, in medieval Europe, whoever dared to question the emperor’s authority would die without a doubt.
How many scientists were burned to death in that dark era?
The Emperor and King of Europe both needed to be crowned by the Pope.
Another example would be the racial discrimination in America.
No matter how much you looked down on people of color and how much you despised them, you couldn’t say that you looked down on black people in public, no matter if you were a superstar or the president of the country.
No matter who said it out loud, their career would be completely ruined.
Another example would be ancient China’s Confucianism after the imperial examination. No one could deny it, and anyone who dared to deny it would be finished.
Even with the extreme centralized state of the Qing Empire, the Emperor still wanted to confer the Kong family the title of Duke Yan Sheng.
In the world where the Great Yan Dynasty was, the imperial examination had been in place for hundreds of years.
Even though civil and military officials stood side by side, at least in the officialdom, civil officials occupied 60% of the positions.
Martial arts were still flourishing, because scholars were also practicing martial arts. For example, Zhang Ji’s Kung Fu was actually quite good, but he had never had the chance to show it.
After the destruction of the ancient world, the civilization of this world was completely built on ancient books and records.
The Four Books and Five Classics of Confucianism were the fire of civilization of the entire Eastern world. They were the holy books of the entire Eastern civilization.
After the imperial examination system was implemented, a large number of civil officials gained power. Just like in Chinese history, they had to do their best to elevate the status of the Saints for their own interests.
In ancient China, after the song Dynasty, Confucius was no longer a human, but a God. In China before the middle of the 19th century, no one was allowed to taint Confucius. Anyone who touched him would die.
Of course, the Great Yan Dynasty did not have a place where only Confucianism was respected. However, Confucianism had already occupied an absolute leading position among many other theories.
So, what was the most sacred and inviolable building in Yue country?
It was not the palace, nor the Royal Mausoleum.
It was the Holy Temple! There were Saints worshipped there.
They were no longer humans, but the gods of the entire Great Yan Empire.
Among them, the Saints were the Supreme gods.
Every year on the first day of the new year, the king would come to the Holy Temple to pay his respects.
The Holy Temple was equivalent to the pyramids in Egypt, the Capitol Hill in the United States, and an Independent Monument.
If someone were to set the Holy Temple on fire, what would the consequences be?
The entire Yue country would be completely shocked.
All the Civil officials had to fight.
This was too much.
They actually dared to burn down the Holy Temple, aren’t they trying to dig out our roots?
How dare you blaspheme a Saint?
He had committed a terrible crime.
Imagine what Egypt would do if the pyramid was blown up.
If Capitol Hill and the independence Monument were hit, what would the US do?
By then, no one would care about Jin mucong raping a girl.
Everything had to make way for it.
All the scholars ‘impeachment memorials could only have one thing in mind, and that was to give an explanation to all the scholars in the world.
The monarch would also express his anger.
However, would the king really be angry?
Not necessarily!
Every year on the first day of the new year, he would come to the Holy Temple to worship sage Confucius. He was probably very unhappy.
This ning yuanxian had never liked Confucianism.
However, there was no other way. The Emperor of the Empire of Great Yan had already shown signs of respecting Confucianism, and the other countries could only follow him.
Even if you want to act, you have to act as if you really respect the Saints.
Did these scholars really care about the Holy Temple?
That might not be the case.
This was just a sign, a sign that when one was promoted and rich, the party would attack the other party.
Did these officials really treat Confucius as a Saint?
It was just for benefits.
But no matter what, the Holy Temple was burned down, so these scholars must be angry and sorrowful, as if their ancestral graves had been dug up.
Then who should burn the Holy Temple?
He definitely couldn’t let the princess Ning Yan burn it. She couldn’t bear the consequences.
This was absolutely politically correct, and whoever touched it would die.
Who’s going to burn it?
Let the envoy of the Qiang Kingdom burn it!
This was the most vicious plan in Shen Lang’s mind.
..................
Qiang country!
It was a small country on the southwest side of the State of Yue.
Its area was less than one-sixth of the size of the State of Yue, and its population was only a few hundred thousand.
However, they were really brave and good at fighting.
Super intrepid, super strong.
Although their weapons and equipment were ordinary, their individual strength far exceeded that of the Vietnamese soldiers.
The Qiang Kingdom was sandwiched between the sand primitive tribe, the Chu Kingdom, the Yue Kingdom, and the Western Region.
It was a battlefield.
Moreover, the Qiang country did not know how to compromise in politics. They did not like anyone and fought with everyone.
In the past hundred years, it had fought with Chu State, the sand primitive tribe, Yue State, and other countries in the Western Region.
He would scold whoever he saw, even the sky, the earth, and the air.
They had been fighting for hundreds of years, but their territory had not increased or decreased.
The population had always been maintained at this level, but it could not go up or down.
Because when the population was small, they would go and Rob.
It was said that war was inevitable because the country could not afford to raise an army and could not support war.
As for the Qiang country, it did not exist at all. Everyone was a soldier.
However, the Qiang Kingdom was a bitter and cold place. There was no point in taking it down, and it would only increase the burden.
Neither the State of Yue nor the state of Chu wanted to take over this land.
Besides, it was good to have such a small bandit country to isolate the Western Region from the sand primitive tribe.
Therefore, over the years, Yue country had adopted a gentle policy towards Qiang country.
To put it bluntly, it was to spend money to buy peace.
Then what was the relationship between the Qiang Kingdom and the Duke of Zhenyuan, su Nan?
It had a huge relationship!
The Qiang Kingdom did not have a good relationship with anyone, but it had a good relationship with the Marquis of Zhenyuan, su clan.
Of course, this was also related to the SU clan’s strategy.
In the SU clan’s clan strategy, the Qiang Kingdom was ranked first!
The SU family lost money every year to trade with the Qiang Kingdom.
His family had almost completely monopolized the sheepskin and wool of the Qiang Kingdom.
Then, the SU family would sell grain, strong wine, silk, and tea bricks to the Qiang Kingdom every year.
Some people had estimated that the SU family would lose at least 30000 gold coins in trade with the Qiang Kingdom every year.
But!
In exchange, they gained a huge amount of political resources.
If he wanted to have dealings with the Qiang Kingdom, he could not do it without the SU family.
Moreover, the SU family’s fief was completely connected to the Qiang Kingdom.
It was because of this political resource that su Nan was able to stand tall.
The king of Qiang ignored everyone and only liked to deal with su Nan.
Su Nan’s sister and daughter were both married to Qiang Wang.
The elder daughter would marry the Qiang King, and the younger daughter would marry the Crown Prince.
Yes, it was that chaotic. The real situation might be even more chaotic.
And now, there was a group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom in the capital of Yue country.
What were they doing here?
Extortion!
During the rebellion in Nan ou, Jin Jun had let bygones be bygones and led the Army of the sand primitive tribe into the country to fight with the Army of Yue country. The war was in a state of anxiety.
When the Qiang country saw that their opportunity had come again, they sent a diplomatic mission to the Yue country to extort them.
They demanded three hundred thousand gold coins, three thousand women, countless grains, silk, and tea leaves from the king.
Your conditions sound good. As long as you give these things to the Qiang Kingdom, we will immediately send troops to attack the sand primitive tribe.
The monarch only had one reaction.
As if I’d believe you!
The Qiang Kingdom and the sand primitive tribe would indeed fight against each other, and they had fought countless times, but it was all a dispute of personal feelings.
Neither side wanted the other’s territory.
The sand primitive people were even poorer than the Qiang Kingdom.
Ning yuanxian firmly believed that as long as he gave the money and materials, the Qiang Kingdom would send 500 soldiers to kill dozens of people in the sand primitive tribe, and then come back to Yue country to claim the merit and ask for more money. The king, ning yuanxian, had already seen through the tricks of this small bandit country.
Even though the war situation in the South was intense, Yue had an overwhelming advantage in terms of military strength and national power.
We don’t need your help at all. It’s already your greatest contribution not to add to the trouble.
The only use of a shit stirrer like you is to go to Chu country when there is a war between the two countries in the future.
Since they couldn’t extort any money, this group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom stayed in Yue country.
All foreign emissaries would usually stay at the Honglu temple of the Ministry of Rites.
However/the emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom were not willing to stay in that damned place. They had been living in the brothels for the past few months.
They switched places one by one. There were good food and fun things to do here. It was simply too good.
Of course, it was impossible for them to give money. The Qiang people would only want money and would not give money.
This was the king’s meal.
This wasn’t the case. Someone had come to pay.
Who was it? Su clan!
He was the Foreign Affairs expert of the Qiang country and the good friend of the Qiang people.
However, this group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom not only ate whatever they liked, but they also liked to beat and kill people.
At this critical moment, the Yue country could only swallow their anger. Every time the envoy from the Qiang country caused trouble, they would reduce big problems to small ones and small problems to nothing.
There was no other way. Although they did not need the help of the Qiang Kingdom in the war of the South, they had no choice.
However, they must not be allowed to cause any trouble.
This was a crazy country. If you provoked them, they would jump into action. When the time came, they would send troops into the South beating country to help Jun Jin attack the Yue country. That would be troublesome.
Don’t think that Qiang country can’t do such a thing.
The Qiang Kingdom had done many things that harmed others without benefiting themselves.
Therefore, everyone should try their best not to provoke this group of people.
Over time, this group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom was hated by both man and God in the capital.
Wherever they were, everyone would stay far away.
We can’t afford to offend them, but we can hide.
This made the group of envoys from the Qiang Kingdom very angry.
There was no other way. The SU family of the Marquis Zhenyuan’s residence had to send special people to accompany these men of the Qiang Kingdom to play.
There were not many emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom, only a dozen of them.
There were two people from the SU clan accompanying him at all times.
For the past few months, the envoy from the Qiang Kingdom had caused trouble and killed people. This had angered the people of the capital to the extreme.
What if this group of madmen from Qiang country burned down the Holy Temple?
That would completely ignite the anger of the Emperor and ministers of Yue country. This is burning our faith!
The entire capital would explode, and countless people would shout to kill.
By then, no one would care about Jin mucong.
And the SU clan would be the target of their anger.
This pack of wolves was guarded by your su clan, but in the end, you didn’t guard them properly and actually ordered them to burn down the Holy Temple.
How should your su clan be punished?
The monarch was furious on the surface, but he was happy in his heart. I’ve been annoyed with you for a long time. I kneel down to you every year.
Moreover, he could finally reject Qiang country’s blackmail with a legitimate reason.
Not only that, but he could also take the opportunity to beat su Nan.
Three birds with one stone.
To Shen lang, it was killing two birds with one stone.
Second, completely reverse the situation in tomorrow’s imperial court, reverse the opportunity for the public to attack the Jin family, and completely shift the attention of the people in the capital.
Second, completely drag the SU clan into the water.
Dragging su Nan into the water was not as simple as letting the Emperor vent his anger on su Nan.
This was Shen Lang’s first move to destroy the SU clan, and it was also the most important Foundation.
If he wanted to destroy the SU clan, he had to use the Qiang Kingdom.
Therefore, even if Jin mucong’s incident did not happen, the Holy Temple had to be burned down. The diplomatic mission of the Qiang Kingdom had to do it.
He didn’t expect to run into Jin mucong’s accident, so this plan was brought forward.
Therefore, letting the envoy of the Qiang Kingdom burn down the Holy Temple was Shen Lang’s most vicious plan.
In his heart, he was even prouder than taking over raging tide city and the battle of gazing Cliff Island.
This was because it had the least chance and the least flaws.
The effect was amazing when the effort was small. It was truly a big move.
The return and the effort were not proportional at all.
In comparison, what was the big deal about Shen lang killing in Wannian County government?
A perfect scheme!
Marquis su Nan, I’ll let you enjoy the wisdom of watching my every move.
..................
Princess ning Meng was very happy!
She had been angry with the emissaries of the Qiang Kingdom for a long time. If it was not for her father’s repeated warnings not to provoke these emissaries of the Qiang Kingdom, she would have hit them long ago.
This group of barbarians was too arrogant. They were barging into the capital every day and doing all kinds of bad things.
There could only be one scourge in the capital of Yue country.
That’s me, Princess Ning Ying.
A few days ago, the envoy from the Qiang Kingdom had gotten into trouble again. They had injured more than a dozen innocent people while riding their horses.
Two of them were severely injured and three of them had broken bones.
The group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom did not take it to heart. Instead, they became angry and accused the people of Yue Kingdom of blocking their way. They madly whipped the people who had come to seek justice.
They didn’t care about the injuries and deaths, and continued to indulge in debauchery. As for the officials of Yue country, big problems were reduced to small problems, and small problems were reduced to nothing.
Today, it was time to go to the Overlord’s meal at spring breeze House.
They were the only guests in the entire spring breeze House.
This was because whichever brothel they went to, the brothel would clear the place.
All the high-ranking girls were hidden and the burly women were sent to serve them.
The group of Qiang Warriors did not really mind.
the dozen or so messenger warriors of the qiang kingdom were drinking excitedly, accompanied by a dozen burly beauties.
In the end, the tigress Princess ning Meng barged in.
a few days ago, were you the ones who hit and killed the innocent people in Xi city? ” Ning Meng said angrily.
“So what if I am?” the leader of the Qiang Warriors asked. Even the government doesn’t care, so why should a woman like you meddle in this? why don’t you come and sleep with us?”
The group of Qiang Kingdom Warriors looked at Ning Zheng with burning eyes.
She was too beautiful, too spicy. She was simply the most beautiful woman they had ever seen.
It couldn’t be helped. The tigress ‘strong legs had completely struck the burning Hearts of the group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom.
It was the pinnacle of their aesthetic point of view!
However, someone quickly recognized her as Princess Ning Ying. Although they were crazy, they would not dare to touch the princess of Yue country.
At this moment, the two people sent by the SU family to accompany the emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom came forward and were about to greet Princess ning Meng.
In the end, he was slapped to the ground by Princess ning Meng and lost consciousness.
Then, the SU family’s Warriors hiding in the dark went to the Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion to report.
Before he could go out, he was stopped by Princess Ning Zheng’s Warriors and fell to the ground.
The tigress, Ning Zheng, pointed at the group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom and said, ” “You have injured and killed more than a dozen citizens of the State of Yue, but the two countries will not kill the envoys. I won’t take advantage of my power to bully others. Let’s fight in turns. I’ll take on a dozen of you all by myself.”
As such, the group of emissaries from the Qiang Kingdom was enraged.
You’re just a woman, how dare you say you’ll beat up more than ten of our Qiang Warriors?
It’s a great humiliation to us.
Even if you’re a Princess, we’ll still beat you up. You’re the one who initiated the competition anyway.
Thus, the wheel battle began!
..................
One by one, the Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom rushed forward.
Then, Yingluo and the others were all killed by the tigress.
In less than half an hour, the battle was over!
Princess ning Meng had really defeated a dozen of them.
The facts had proven that her reputation as the scourge of the capital was not undeserved.
Although Ning Zheng’s martial arts talent was not as good as Ning Han’s, she had also been taught by a famous teacher, and her martial arts was really strong.
Of course, she couldn’t be compared to Chou Yao ‘er, who was a perverted Demon Queen.
Ning Jie was a top-notch expert and Zuo CI’s junior Sister. However, if they were to really fight, she might not be a match for Chou Yao ‘er.
However, this tigress princess’s martial arts was stronger than Mulan’s.
There was no other way. Mulan had to practice martial arts and was busy with military affairs.
She wasn’t like a tigress, who had focused on martial arts since she was young and had high talent.
More importantly, he was brainless.
In this world, there were people who had both martial arts and wisdom, but they were still relatively rare. Only a simple-minded person could practice martial arts to a high level.
Look at dumb, look at Tang Yan, and look at Sword King Li qianqiu. None of them had a good brain. In other words, they had used all their wisdom on martial arts, so their emotional intelligence was very low.
Grandmaster Zhong chuke was too smart. That was why his martial arts could not compare to li qianqiu’s.
For a woman like Mulan baby, who was good at martial arts, kind, smart, beautiful, and had an excellent figure.
It was a very rare sight, and she was practically an Angel.
Back to the main topic.
More than a dozen Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom had been defeated by Ning Zheng in a continuous battle.
It was a great humiliation.
Of course, ning Meng didn’t hit them hard. She didn’t even break their bones. She only beat them up until their noses and faces were swollen.
Then, the tigress Princess took off her gloves and waved her hand. “Sigh, your batch of Qiang Warriors is not good enough.”
It was as if Chen Zhen had just defeated a Japanese warrior, brushed off the non-existent dust on his collar, and said arrogantly, ” “Your Black Dragon Gang, no way!”
That kind of disdain, that kind of emphasis, it simply made him explode with anger.
Of course, Shen lang was the one who taught her this.
The tigress instinctively felt that this conversation was very cool, and she would use it more often in the future.
Then, she left, leaving the group of Qiang Warriors with an extremely fiery back view.
She really felt good.
The best thing in the world was to act tough and slap people’s faces.
Shen lang had designed the script for her from the beginning to the end.
..................
After Princess ning Meng left!
The dozen or so Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom got up, feeling extremely ashamed and angry.
Legend had it that barbarian men were very straightforward. If you defeated him, would he be convinced?
That was all a lie.
This group of scoundrels, each one more treacherous than the last.
If you defeat him, it will only make him hate you more and think about how to kill you.
What straight-forward man, from the throat to the end? Those were all written in books.
This group of people from the Qiang Kingdom were typical of hot-tempered and petty people. It was too humiliating for a dozen Warriors to be defeated by a woman.
He had to take revenge, he had to take revenge.
However, the other party was a Princess, and he couldn’t just kill her.
In their anger, the group of Qiang Warriors drank even more.
And then,
Their wine had been drugged.
AI!
Master Lang’s deadly weapon was about to appear again. He had made another batch.
It really worked every time!
Who was the one who drugged them?
Of course, it was the burly gals who accompanied him to drink.
Princess Ning Zheng might lack people around her, but she definitely didn’t lack burly women.
Do you still remember that female warrior who was eight feet tall and eight feet wide? the one who had already started to have a crush on master lang?
There were hundreds of such female warriors around ning Meng.
After drinking the strong drug, the Warriors of the diplomatic mission from the Qiang Kingdom went completely crazy.
He had never thought that Yue country would actually have such fine wine. It was simply breathtaking.
This group of Qiang Warriors had low intelligence to begin with, and at this moment, their intelligence dropped to the bottom. The people sent by the Qiang King to extort money had a one-track mind, and smart people were not good at it.
How could he describe the feelings of the Qiang Warriors at this moment?
I’m the only one in the world.
I don’t want the sky to cover my eyes, I don’t want the earth to bury my heart.
Oh! No, it wasn’t that artistic.
It should be,”I’m too awesome, this world can’t tolerate me anymore.”
Just now, more than ten of them had been defeated by a woman.
He had to take revenge. He had to take revenge.
How should he retaliate?
We, the Qiang people, are going to do something big.
Doing something of great importance!
To attack the palace?
Or to rape the princess? And then kill them?
At this moment, the brawny Carrie who was accompanying him to drink gave him an idea.
“My Lords, what is the holiest place in the Qiang Kingdom?”
“Of course it’s the snow Mountain holy temple. The God of the Qiang Kingdom lives there,” the dozen or so Qiang Warriors replied.
“Then what if someone burns down your Snow Mountain holy temple?” the stout Carrie asked.
“Of course we’re going to kill his entire family, his entire country, and his 100 races,” the dozen or so Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom replied.
They often heard of the slaughter of nine clans, and for some reason, they felt that it was powerful. Thus, they expanded to the slaughter of a hundred clans.
“What a coincidence, there’s also a holy temple in our capital.” His status in our country is the same as your Snow Mountain holy temple.”
The dozen or so Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom looked at each other.
Their hearts were connected, and they had a genius idea.
To burn down this divine temple in Yue country!
He wanted to take revenge for the humiliation he had just suffered.
You Yue people actually dare to look down on us? How dare you not give us money.
We want revenge, we want to do something big.
Although this group of Warriors from the diplomatic mission was not very smart, they would definitely not do such a thing when they were sober.
At this moment, Jian Jia and the others were already drinking like crazy.
In the heavens and on the earth, I’m the only one who reveres. What else do I not dare to do?
Therefore, after getting the directions, the group of Qiang Warriors headed towards the Holy Temple.
Suddenly, these few stout gals disappeared without a trace, and could no longer be found.
What a coincidence.
For some reason, after leaving spring breeze House, there would be someone to lead the way at every key intersection.
Otherwise, the group of Qiang Warriors would not have been able to find the Holy Temple.
Was such a sacred place like the Holy Temple heavily guarded?
My ass!
The security of Wu ‘GE, the pyramid, and Capitol Hill were not tight.
Of course, the Holy Temple in the capital of Yue country was not strictly guarded.
This place was specially built for the monarch’s worship, and also for countless scholars to come and pay their respects to the Emperor.
It would be strict on one day every year, on the first day of the new year, because the monarch was coming.
The rest of the time, it was guarded by a dozen or so veterans.
There were only a few large statues in this temple, unlike many other Buddhist temples that had golden bodies and incense money.
There wasn’t even half a gold coin in the Holy Temple, and even thieves wouldn’t come here to steal.
Usually, there was an old man who lived in the Holy Temple, and he was a fourth-rank official.
With ease, the dozen or so Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom had exterminated the dozen or so veterans who were guarding the Holy Temple.
Then, there was a big fire.
He had set the Holy Temple on fire!
This was the sacred Hall of all the scholars in the world.
This was the Holy Hall of the founders of the eastern civilization.
This was the palace of the eastern Sage.
A huge fire was burning.
The dozen or so Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom were so excited that they were trembling.
Cool!
It felt too good.
Burning down someone else’s temple was so cool.
The fire in the Holy Temple lit up the night sky that was about to break.
The entire capital was completely shaken.
A magnitude 10 earthquake.
This was equivalent to the U.S. Congress ‘Monument of Independence being blown up.
It was absolutely a heaven-piercing move!
Shen Lang’s perfect plan!
He had succeeded!
The SU clan’s first misfortune was about to begin!
Tomorrow, the entire Yue state’s imperial court would stir up a shocking political storm.
