Chapter 232: Chapter 232-Zhang Ji’s choice!
Translator: 549690339
(Congratulations to Nilan Xuan for becoming the new alliance master of this book. I’m so grateful that I’m shedding tears! I’d like to ask for monthly votes and a support card by the way)
After a long while, Zhang Ji’s eyes gradually regained focus and he could see his son clearly.
When he opened his eyes this time, it was as if he had been reborn.
“Intestinal ulcer is a terminal disease, but it can be cured?”
Zhang Ji said weakly. He knew what kind of illness he had, and he felt that he was definitely going to die this time.
Zhang Ye was so happy that he cried.
No words could describe the ecstasy in his heart.
Originally, his entire world was about to collapse and be destroyed, and the mountain in his heart was about to collapse.
His father had actually come back to life.
Shen lang had mentioned that the first indicator was very important. It was whether the patient could wake up immediately. It had only been a few hours, and his father had actually defeated the dark Demon and woken up.
it was Shen lang who saved you. That’s a godly skill.
Even now, Zhang Ji was still in disbelief.
She knew that Shen langzhi was like a demon, but she did not expect him to be so powerful that he could even cure a terminal illness like intestinal ulcer.
Furthermore, he was cured in an unimaginable way.
After hearing Zhang san’s words, Zhang San was stunned, and his gaze became extremely complicated.
Then, he heaved a long sigh of relief.
The world was truly a joke. He didn’t expect that the one who saved his life would be his greatest enemy.
“Duke Zhang has finally woken up. His life is more than half saved.”
Shen lang walked in.
Zhang Ji had wanted to kneel down, but he didn’t.
He couldn’t thank her enough.
Zhang Ji looked at Shen lang with a complicated expression. He found it hard to speak.
In this life, he had kneeled before the Emperor, thanked Zhu Rong, and thanked ning Qi’s Royal uncle.
However, he had never received such a huge favor, the favor of saving his life.
For a moment, he didn’t know what to say, and his weak face was a little dazed.
“Young master Shen wants to destroy the SU clan. How far is it going?”
Finally, Zhang Ye managed to squeeze out a sentence. It was more natural to talk about serious matters.
“In about 13 days, the final battle will begin.” Shen lang counted with his fingers.
Zhang Ji, who was beside him, was stunned when he heard this. The fifth Prince, Ning Zheng, could not help but be stunned as well.
Why was there a specific date for the final battle?
More importantly, it was difficult to tell friend from foe, yet you were so clear with him?
Zhang Ye thought for a while and said,”the other party made the first move and then retaliated?”
Shen lang was convinced.
Talking to such a smart person was really too energy-saving.
Shen lang had only mentioned 13 days, but Zhang Ji concluded that su Nan was the one who started the battle.
The logic behind this was very complicated.
Now that the monarch liked Shen lang more, they had to choose the time when the monarch was most furious to deal a fatal blow to Shen lang.
The king was mean and unkind, and he liked to vent his anger on others.
When you want to harm a person, you must take advantage of his most embarrassed and angry mood to get twice the result with half the effort.
If Shen lang took the initiative to attack su Nan, he would choose the time when the monarch was happy because the monarch did not like su Nan.
On the other hand, su Nan was the opposite.
“You don’t think that the King and King of Wu will have a competition at the border this time. Do you think that the king will lose?” Zhang Ye continued.
Shen lang nodded and was once again in awe.
Zhang Ji was indeed Zhang Ji. Even though he had just woken up from a serious illness, his mind was still so sharp.
His high fever had just subsided, so his mind should be in a mess.
Zhang Ye nodded,”I think so too. Every time we lost to King Wu, we were just showing our weakness.” Now that our State of Yue has fallen into the quagmire of the rebellion of the South, King Wu will take the opportunity to become stronger. Therefore, in this hunting competition, the monarch will lose.”
Not only did Zhang Ji see it, su Nan also saw it.
For the past ten days, su Nan and Shen lang stopped fighting and enjoyed a rare moment of peace. It wasn’t a truce, nor was it because someone wanted to lick their wounds.
In the previous battle, Shen lang had won by a small margin, but neither of them was injured.
The reason for the pause was to wait for the results of the hunting meet between the King and King Wu.
“You have a flaw?” Zhang Ye said.
“That’s right. Shen lang nodded and said, ” furthermore, it’s a flaw that can’t be fixed by normal methods. It’s a flaw that can instantly kill you. Since there’s no way to fix it, then we’ll enlarge this flaw and fill it with poison to give the enemy a fatal counterattack.”
Zhang Ye thought for a while, then nodded and said,”I roughly know.”
Then, Zhang Yan continued, ” Shen lang, you are taking a huge risk. The outcome of this battle was decided in an instant. It will be very dangerous.
Why did Zhang San know which flaw Shen lang was referring to?
Shen lang was Zhang san’s biggest enemy in the past, and he had studied every single flaw on Shen lang countless times.
Of course, Zhang Ji knew about that fatal flaw.
However, it was useless after weighing the pros and cons.
This was because there were some things that su Nan could do, but Zhang Ji could not.
It wasn’t just a matter of bottom line, it was also a matter of character attributes.
“Duke Zhang, what do you think my chances of winning are?” Shen lang asked.
Zhang Ye thought for a while and said,”you’ve been planning for so long and calculated every step. Of course, your chances of winning aren’t small.” However, it was too difficult to bring su Nan down in one fell swoop. This person had been in power for decades and had a strong foundation in the court. The key was that he monopolized all of the Foreign Affairs of the Qiang Kingdom. Once su Nan fell, the Qiang Kingdom would rise in revolt. Now that the war in the Nanda Kingdom is already so intense, once the Qiang Kingdom joins in, the consequences will be unimaginable, unless they are wangliang.”
Zhang Ji stopped talking and looked at Shen lang in disbelief.
Unless there was internal strife in the Qiang Kingdom and they could not even take care of themselves.
In the court of judicial review, he paid no attention to the political affairs outside. The only thing he could see was a letter personally written by his son, Zhang Ji.
Even these letters had been picked and picked by the court of judicial review and made difficult for him before being sent to him.
However, he still knew about Shen Lang’s diplomatic mission to the Qiang Kingdom.
“The Qiang Kingdom is about to fall into chaos.” Shen lang nodded.
“The incident where the Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom burned down the temple?” Zhang Ji asked again.
Shen lang nodded and said,”that’s my doing too.” &Nbsp;
Zhang Ye was shocked and in disbelief.
Zhang Yan was stunned. Shen lang even revealed such a secret?
One had to know that the Zhang family was his enemy.
Not only did Shen lang say it in front of the Zhang family, but he also said it in front of the monarch and su Nan.
The key was that Zhang Ji knew more about Shen Lang’s secrets. There were secrets that were much more fatal than burning the temple.
“In that case, brother Shen, you didn’t ask the Qiang people to burn down the temple to save Jin mucong?” Zhang Ye asked.
“It’s a coincidence, killing two birds with one stone,” Shen lang said.
Zhang Ji closed his eyes, unable to hide the shock in his heart.
He was still running a low fever, but he had just recovered from it, so he felt cool and comfortable.
Although he was a little dizzy, it didn’t hinder his thinking.
Shen Lang’s entire plan formed a series of connections in his mind, and it instantly became clear.
The first step was to burn the Holy Temple. The second step was to send an envoy to the Qiang Kingdom. The third step was to have a decisive battle in the Imperial court. The fourth step was to destroy the SU clan.
Amazing!
It was too amazing!
One after another, the time was so precise that it was within a few days.
Furthermore, he had made use of natural and man-made disasters and the overall situation.
When heavenly flowers broke out in the Qiang Kingdom, the king knew how to hunt them.
As long as he could hold on to these two points, he would be able to predict the enemy.
Once you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious.
Previously, in Xuanwu city, Shen lang was able to achieve a complete victory by taking three steps at a time and then four steps at a time.
Of course, Zhang Ji would also take one step at a time and be cautious.
It was almost a game of chess, but Shen lang was lucky and won the game.
Could su Nan see through Shen Lang’s chess game this time?
Moreover, Shen lang dared to show his fatal weakness to the enemy.
This kind of viciousness and decisiveness was indeed amazing.
“Lord Zhang, is it enough to defeat su Nan?” Shen lang asked.
“It’s enough to cause the monarch’s personal anger, but it’s not enough to bring justice,” Zhang Ye said.
Shen lang said, ” I still have one more thing. It is a mistake made by the previous generation of the SU clan. It will definitely trigger the king.
“That’s still a personal grudge. The fall of any powerful official requires a righteous cause,” Zhang Ye said.
Shen lang nodded. That was indeed the case.
If he wanted su Nan to fall from power, the most important thing was to incite the monarch’s personal anger. However, righteousness was also very important.
It had to be a crime that sounded Grand.
After all, su Nan was the crown prince’s junior Guardian, the great General of the Army, the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, and a giant in the court.
“I have the moral high ground to bring him down, and the evidence is conclusive,” Zhang Ye said.
Shen lang was stunned.
“I’m the vanguard of the new governance, and my top target is not the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, but the palace of the Marquis of Zhenyuan. The SU family is the Big Shot of the old aristocratic families. If the new government takes them down, it will be more significant. It is because the king can’t take down the SU family that he chose to take down the Jin family.”
Following that, Zhang Ye said,”13 days, we still have 13 days!” The final battle between you and su Nan was still too risky. You have almost no allies in the Imperial court! How about this, I’ll come too.”
“You’re here too? You’re also here for my fierce battle with su Nan?”
“After all, I’m also a pioneer of the new policies,” Zhang Ye said.
“Thank you, Lord Zhang.” Shen lang bowed.
..................
Bitter Joy’s sharp blade was clamped on Xu Qianqian’s neck, and it was about to cut several times.
What principles?
What principles are there to speak of at such a critical moment?
He wanted to cut off Xu Qianqian’s head several times.
However, it was as if a stone had been injected into his arm, and he could not cut it down at all.
Xu Qianqian continued,”what do you want?” I can give you my man. ”
“Shut up, you shut up.” Ku Huanhuan said hoarsely.
I’ve killed countless people in my life, what’s a woman to me?
“Only kill the wicked, not the old, the young, the women, and the children. It’s just a slogan. Why do you take it seriously?”
The three-eyed evil in the West and the bitter joy in the East.
We’re all villains here, so why are you still pretending to be a Saint?
Kill her, kill her and it’s done.
After gathering his courage for a long time, ku Huanhuan slashed down with the sharp blade in his hand.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
A piece of Xu Wanwan’s bed was cut off, and a strand of her hair was cut off.
“Ah!!!!!!!!”
Ku Huanhuan roared in anger. He still couldn’t bear to do it.
“Get the hell into the palace of the Marquis of Xuanwu.”
Then, he turned around and left, taking away Xu Xiu’s Tiannan plaque.
Xu Qianqian caught up to him.
“Bittersweet joy, what do you want?”
“It has nothing to do with you.”
Xu Qianqian said, ” go to the capital and look for Shen lang. This scumbag is very powerful. No matter what you want, he will be able to give it to you.
F * ck!
Just now, he was still calling him my man.
And now, he had become a scumbag.
Xu Wanwan, you’re changing your mind too quickly.
Women are the reality. You can just throw them away after you’ve used them.
Ku touhuan had already left, but Xu Qianqian still chased after him.
“Bitter joy, don’t go.”
Ku Huan was immediately angry. woman, don’t go too far. You still dare to chase after me and not let me go? ” Are you not afraid of death?”
Xu Qianqian said seriously, ” I’m happy to suffer. We’re all pitiful people in the dark. I was saved by Chou Yao ‘er. You also need someone to save you. You are a hero. I don’t know what happened to you, but can you please go and find Shen lang? He will help you.”
“I don’t need anyone’s help,” ku Huanhuan said in a hoarse voice.
Then, with a spring of his feet, his figure instantly disappeared without a trace.
..................
The capital of Yue country.
“Zhang Ye has been saved?” The monarch said in disbelief and shock.
Eunuch Li Sun said, ” it’s true. Shen lang saved Zhang Jing. His fever has subsided. He has woken up.
The monarch said,”this person actually has such high medical skills?” It’s really unbelievable.”
exactly, ” Archduke Li Sun said. intestinal inflammation is a terminal illness, but it can be cured.
The monarch couldn’t help but think of his first wife, who had died from a stomach ache.
If Shen lang was there, she would probably not have died.
However, even if her stomach ache was cured, she would probably still die of depression.
Shen lang had cured Ning Luo, Ning Ying, and now Zhang Jing.
This brat’s medical skills were indeed amazing.
“Don’t make it public. Just pretend that Zhang Ji didn’t suffer from a stomachache. Go to the Supreme Court and kill the few jailor and guards who are watching over Zhang Ji,” the monarch ordered.
“Yes.” Li Jing said.
The king picked up the edict that he had drafted earlier.
He had planned to send the decree over immediately after Zhang Ji’s death.
Now it seemed that this decree was no longer needed.
“Re-draft the decree. Zhang Ji’s so-called case of corruption in the National Treasury is purely false and fabricated. Arrest those who have made false accusations. Zhang Ji is not guilty and will be released. He will be reinstated.”
“Yes,” eunuch Li Sun immediately bowed.
His voice was still trembling slightly.
The monarch could not help but look at him and said, ” “What kind of act are you putting on now?”
“No, nothing,” Li Jing said.
Li Sun was only loyal to the king, so she had a particularly good impression of officials who were loyal to the king.
Of course, he was also very upset about Zhang Ji’s previous injustice. However, eunuchs were not allowed to meddle in politics. His every word and action had to obey the emperor’s will.
That was why he did not dare to plead for mercy for the past six months. But now that Zhang Ye had been reinstated, he was still a little excited.
..................
The great eunuch Li Sun came to the Zhang family to announce the decree.
“The case of Zhang Ji embezzling the National Treasury is a false accusation. He is not guilty and will be released. His official position will be restored. That’s it!”
Zhang Ji’s emaciated body knelt on the ground and trembled as he said, ” “Your subject thanks you for your kindness!”
Eunuch Li Sun came forward to help him up,”Lord Zhang, recuperate well. His Majesty has many officials like you by his side.”
“Thank you, eunuch li,” Zhang Ji cupped his hands.
Li Jing shook Zhang Jing’s withered hand and left.
..................
The news of Zhang Ye’s restoration of his position spread throughout the court.
Many officials couldn’t help but sigh. This man’s opportunity was really hard to predict.
This was the worst situation Zhang San had experienced in the past six months. He was locked up in the court of judicial Review’s prison for no reason, and it seemed like he would never be able to get out.
Moreover, he was seriously ill and was about to die.
In the end, not only did he survive, but he was also reinstated.
It was truly a desperate situation.
From then on, there would be one more doctor you at the Censorate.
The Imperial censor Wang Chengqian frowned, hoping that Zhang Ji would be more obedient.
Your position is just a transition, don’t overshadow the host.
The Censorate can only have one voice and one leader, and that is me, Wang Chengqian.
............
Two days later, the monarch left the capital and headed to the border to meet with the King of Wu.
The so-called hunting competition was a different kind of three-battle martial arts competition.
the wu and yue countries were at war all year round. twenty years ago, because of the change in yan zhou, bian xiao led a hundred thousand troops to the yue country, causing wu country to lose.
Since then, the Wu country had been recuperating and no more wars broke out.
However, the border conflicts between the two countries were constant, and they fought constantly.
People were naturally competitive, and there was no other way.
Since the two countries couldn’t be on good terms, they had to fight to the end, but they couldn’t really go to war.
What to do?
The two country emperors were having a hunting competition at the border.
Wen played chess and Wu fought.
A game of chess was a game of chess between two emperors.
A martial battle was a battle where two countries would send out their elite cavalrymen to fight in an open space.
This was an old tradition among the nobles.
The Wu and Yue country would hold a hunting event every five years.
Every time before, Yue country had won a big victory, greatly increasing the prestige of the country.
Ning yuanxian’s chess skills were very high, and every time, he could defeat the King of Wu.
The cavalry of Yue country could also defeat the cavalry of Wu country every time.
It had been like this for over twenty years.
However, ning yuanxian was not tired of it. He was such a vain person.
He wished that the whole world would know that he, ning yuanxian, was the best in both literature and martial arts, and that the State of Yue was the true Overlord of the South.
And this year, he was especially interested in the outcome of the hunting competition.
This was because the rebellion in the nanlai Kingdom had been going on for more than a year, and the situation was still extremely tense.
The king had already sent 250000 troops into the South beating Kingdom.
However, the sand primitive scoundrels seemed to be endless, and they kept joining the battlefield.
furthermore, the more he beat up that bastard, jin jun, the more powerful he became. he even felt like a lord.
What was even more terrifying was that as the war went on, the relationship between the South Ocean Kingdom and the sand primitive tribe had become closer.
The scoundrels of the sand primitive race were admiring Jin Jun more and more, and they even had the intention of making him the leader of the sand primitive race.
At this critical moment, the monarch needed victory after victory to boost the prestige of the country and the monarch.
The victory of the last diplomatic mission to the Qiang Kingdom had been bragged by him as an unparalleled achievement.
And this time, the monarch’s hunt was even more important.
If he had defeated Wu Wang in the hunting competition, he would have been able to brag to the world.
Our State of Yue has once again defeated a great country like the state of Wu. The chaos in the state of Nan ou is just a small matter that is not worth mentioning.
To make an analogy.
The monarch’s hunt is held once every five years. The significance of winning is more important than our country’s participation in the Olympic Games twenty or thirty years ago.
at that time, our country was in urgent need to improve its reputation in the world, and the Olympic Games was the best stage, so we were so eager for the gold medal.
Therefore, for ning yuanxian, the hunting competition at the border between Wu and Yue was not only a diplomatic battlefield, but also a political and military battlefield.
He could only win, he could not lose!
The king went to war, the third Prince accompanied him, and the Crown Prince stayed in the capital.
The secret envoy, Bian Xiao, the Deputy envoy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Zhong E, and Nangong ao accompanied him.
The Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, su Nan, stayed behind in the capital.
All along, su Nan had tried his best to curry favor with the monarch and wished that he could be by his side at all times.
This time, he did not follow.
........................
Time flowed like water, time flew by.
Time passed day by day.
It was getting closer and closer to the decisive battle between Shen lang and su Nan.
This time, it was a matter of life and death.
Shen Lang’s days were extremely quiet.
He was just too lonely.
Every time he passed by a brothel, Shen lang would be tempted.
His wife had said that as long as he didn’t find any dirty women, it would be fine.
My family’s precious wife is profound and righteous, then as your husband, it would be disrespectful to refuse.
Why don’t I break my precept once in a while?
Besides, the decisive battle between su Nan and I is about to begin.
That was a battle of life and death.
I need to relax my body and mind, don’t I?
Those pure and flawless girls were so lovely. Even if I didn’t go, they would still sell it to some vulgar merchants.
I’m so handsome, and I’m doing good deeds and saving all living beings.
If I don’t go to hell, who will?
Master lang spent a full two hours to convince himself. Then/he disguised himself and boldly stepped into the brothel.
But,
As soon as he stepped through the door, he could no longer go on.
All he could think of was Mulan’s adoring and attached gaze.
Thus, he retreated back.
But it was really hard to endure at night.
Thus, the next day, he mustered up the courage for an hour and a half and stepped through the door again.
However, before she could walk up the stairs, she retreated.
He repeated this process four to five times. One time, he went upstairs, but he still exited.
AI!
Every time he did, he would think of Mulan’s face and eyes.
There was also Chou Yao ‘er’s disdainful face.
In the end, he couldn’t get over the barrier in his heart.
Master lang realized that he wasn’t that much of a scumbag.
It was fine.
One day, she met the tigress Princess, ning Meng, who was walking past the brothel. Even though Shen lang had disguised himself, she could recognize him at a glance.
“Eh, Shen lang, why are you here?”
“Oh, you want to do something that can not be told to others!”
“Scumbag!”
Then, Princess Ning Yan left.
The people around him suddenly came to a realization.
It turned out that the man who had been going in and out of the brothel a few times was Shen lang.
Aiya!
It was actually young master Shen lang!
Thus, a few old women came forward.
“Young master Shen, don’t go! Don’t go!”
“Could it be that Shen gongzi does not have any girls that he likes? what do you think of this servant?”
Master lang, who was usually invincible, fled in a sorry state.
At that moment, Shen lang really wanted to beat this tigress to death.
F * ck, this isn’t the first time you’ve tricked me.
What a sin!
What the f * ck.
Then, master lang became famous, and it was a notorious one.
In his heart, he wanted to kill Ning Zheng even more.
But he couldn’t beat her.
For the past few days, Shen lang had been eating and drinking with the cloudy dreamy swampland and Ning Yan.
Every time they met, ning Meng would shout,”scumbag!”
After a few days!
She added the word ‘scumbag’ to the word ‘scumbag’.
It was really easy to beat her to death!
............
There were still two days left before the end of the hunting competition at the border between the king and Wu Wang.
Then, it would also be two days before the life-and-death battle with su Nan in the Imperial court!
Master lang had been keeping himself pure for more than twenty days.
His entire body was about to explode.
Today, he had gone to the dreamy cloud swampland to drink with ning Meng.
“Scumbag, good-for-nothing!”
The tigress wanted to have a drinking contest, but Shen lang ignored her and blurted out the two words.
“Brother lang, something big is going to happen?” Yun mengze, the Empire’s Ambassador, asked.
“Brother, you can tell?” Shen lang asked.
“If even someone like you is nervous, it must be something big,” said the dreamy cloud swampland.
It must be something big.
Su Nan was one of the leading figures in the Imperial court. This decisive battle in the Imperial court was directly related to his life and death.
Even if Shen lang had planned everything, he would still be nervous.
Hearing this, ning Meng could not help but turn around and say, ” “What is it?”
“Yes, it’s a matter of life and death.” Shen lang said.
“In these few days?” the dreamy cloud swampland asked.
“In the next few days,” Shen lang said.
The dreamy cloud swampland said,”my brother, you can’t be in such a tense state. You have to relax.” I have no power or influence, so I can only support you in spirit.”
Then, the dreamy cloud swampland poured wine for Shen lang and Ning Yan.
Shen lang drank one glass after another.
The tigress Princess gulped down glass after glass.
Very soon, Shen lang realized that something was wrong. The wine was drugged.
Shen lang and Ning Yan were both under the effects of the drug.
The dreamy cloud Swampman stood up and carried Shen lang in his left hand and Princess Ning Yan in his right hand. He walked into the room and threw the two of them on the bed.
“Brother lang, no need to thank me!”
“Guo Mei, no need to thank me!”
Then, the dreamy cloud swampland locked the door from the outside.
“Tigress, what are you doing? Don’t come over, don’t come over!”
