Chapter 277: Master Lang’s triumphant return and awe-inspiring capital!
Translator: 549690339
Zhuo Zhaoyan was very beautiful, and it was the kind of beauty that was flirtatious yet carried a noble and arrogant air.
However, when she approached him, Shen lang dodged quickly.
Shen lang was a scumbag and had four women so far.
Without exception, these four were as pure as ice and as clean as Jade.
Hence, how could he touch a woman like Zhuo Zhaoyan?
“What’s wrong? Does young master Shen think that I’m not beautiful enough?” Zhuo Zhaoyan said coyly.
Shen lang sighed. miss Zhuo, you are very beautiful. However, you are too dirty. I’m afraid that you are poisonous.
Zhuo Zhaoyan’s expression changed the moment she heard that.
His words were extremely vicious. Zhuo Zhaoyan could not imagine that Shen lang would say such vicious words.
One should not hit someone’s face, but Shen lang did.
Ever since she had the yin Yuan Association as her backing, Zhuo Zhaoyan had never suffered such humiliation.
Shen Lang’s mouth was even more vicious than a normal Shrew’s.
Shen lang was almost certain that the woman in front of him was only the crown prince’s mistress in name. There was no real relationship between the two.
Otherwise, with the crown prince’s possessiveness, how could he have allowed Zhuo Zhaoyan to hook up with so many women?
Shen lang did not have any contact with the Crown Prince, but he had a rough understanding of him. He was the one with the most similar personality among the few sons of the monarch.
He was as narcissistic, selfish, and vicious as the monarch.
However, he did not seem to have the romantic feelings of the king, ning yuanxian. Instead, he seemed to have a trace of brutal emotions.
Shen lang had a certain level of understanding of Zhuo Zhaoyan. In fact, he knew her quite well.
First of all, she was a member of the yin Yuan Association.
In fact, it was not only the members of the yin Yuan Association, but they also had a secret mission.
After taking a few deep breaths, Zhuo Zhaoyan’s expression gradually calmed down. She said slowly, ” “Young master Shen, do you know what is the most ethereal thing in this world?”
Shen lang said,”wind!” It’s because it’s blowing here and there.”
The wind that the two of them were talking about was also the emperor’s favor.
it’s the same when people like someone, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan said. you like someone today, but you might not like him tomorrow. Some people were sentimental, while others were fickle. I’ve been looking at this cute little dog for a few days, but I’ll get sick of it soon.”
It meant that the king was fickle in his emotions, and Shen lang might be favored today, but not tomorrow.
Shen lang shrugged his shoulders.
Zhuo Zhaoyan giggled. it seems like young master Shen has indeed become arrogant. I hope that what happens next will make you understand yourself.
“Goodbye, young master Shen. I wish you a good dream.”
Then, Zhuo Zhaoyan left.
Shen lang said, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan, I will not let the matter of you getting ku Huan to assassinate my father-in-law go. I will definitely complain to His Majesty. Oh, no, I will definitely complain to His Majesty.
Zhuo Zhaoyan smiled sweetly. anything is fine. Young master Shen, you’d better hurry back to the capital. Don’t stay any longer when you pass by lang County. There might be a surprise waiting for you in the capital.
This was a warning, a serious warning.
..................
Two days later!
Shen lang passed by lang County, but he did not pay a visit to the third Prince, ning Qi.
But,
The other party came to visit him and went straight to the resting point where Shen lang was staying.
It was not his first time seeing ning Qi, but it was his first time coming into contact with him.
The third Prince, ning Qi, had a different appearance and temperament from the monarch.
Ning yuanxian was an exquisitely handsome man. Although he knew martial arts, he despised it and could be considered a King of literature.
Ning Qi, on the other hand, was serious and unsmiling. There was martial arts in literature, and literature in martial arts.
He had once learned martial arts from a few Masters.
The first master was the great Grandmaster Yan nanfei, the second was Zhong Yao, and the third was the master of the sky-Sea Pavilion, Zuo Ci.
Just by looking at the name list of these Masters, one could tell how powerful this person was.
Otherwise, how could he have become the crown prince’s rival?
Even ning yuanxian himself could not decide whether to let the Crown Prince or the third Prince succeed the throne.
It was precisely because of his hesitation that there was a struggle for the throne in the court, and it was even.
This person was truly talented in both civil and martial arts.
The moment Shen lang got close to him, he could feel the killing intent.
It was an oppressing feeling that came from powerful martial strength and power, but it was also wrapped in a civilized and Noble temperament. It was fundamentally different from the Qiang King arugan, who used violence to intimidate his enemies.
He wasn’t a narcissist, but a very confident person.
Shen lang, what can I give you? ” Ning Qi said.
He wasn’t the Crown Prince, so it wasn’t appropriate for him to be called a loner. However, he had always been like this, and the king didn’t say anything.
Shen lang thought for a while and shook his head.
“Then what do you want?” ning Qi asked.
Shen lang thought for a while and said,”revenge.”
Even though he knew the answer, ning Qi was still shocked.
What grudge?
The SU family sneaked an attack on the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, and you exterminated them.
Who do you want to take revenge on now?
“Who do you want to seek revenge from?” ning Qi asked.
“I will take revenge on the person who harmed my family,” Shen lang said.
They really couldn’t continue this conversation.
There was no way to bribe a person like Shen lang.
He had everything and didn’t want anything.
In his eyes, money and power were like dog shit.
He loved beauties.
However, she could hook up with him and didn’t need him to send her.
“Is there really no way to dispel the enmity between you and the Xue family?” Ning Qi asked.
Shen lang shrugged his shoulders.
“Then you must have a priority when you seek revenge,” ning Qi said.
The meaning was clear. You take revenge on the crown Prince first, and the two of us will work together to overthrow the Crown Prince.
As for the enmity between you and the Xue family, we can talk about it later?
Shen lang said, ” third Prince, you are very powerful. You can make me respect you. My teammates can be pigs, but I can’t sleep with them.”
When he said that, Princess ning Meng’s face appeared in Shen Lang’s mind. She glared at him and said, ” Who are you talking about? Who was calling a pig teammate? Be careful or I’ll kill you.
This was not the first time that this silly girl had tricked Shen lang.
However, Yingluo wanted to treat Shen lang well.
Ning Qi said, ” the Xue family is my people. If you attack the Xue family, you’ll be making an enemy of me. Think carefully. I’ll ask you one last time, are you sure you want to be my enemy?”
Shen lang sighed. third Prince, there’s an 80 to 90 percent chance that you’re not proud of your life!
“Alright, I understand,” ning Qi said. After tonight, we’ll be enemies, but tonight, we can drink and chat.”
“Third Prince, is your wine poisonous?” Shen lang raised his glass.
Ning Qi’s face changed, and he wanted to flip the table.
Shen lang quickly replied, ” I’m joking. I’m just joking. I like to joke.
Then, he picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all in one go.
Ning Qi also picked up a cup and drank it without any respect.
The two of them didn’t say a word and just kept drinking.
These two people were the kind of people who admired each other, but neither liked the other.
After drinking, at night.
Third Prince Ning Qi left.
He didn’t even tell her to take care of herself.
But the meaning was already very clear. From now on, they were enemies.
In the future, when the butcher’s knife lands, don’t cry out for injustice.
..................
After the third Prince, ning Qi, left, Shen lang fell into deep thought.
Initially, ning Qi did not have any hopes of taking Shen lang under his wing, but he hoped that they could work together to deal with the Crown Prince.
However, Shen lang rejected it.
Then the situation would become very delicate.
When Shen lang heard the third Prince’s footsteps, he felt like he could hear the sound of war drums.
The so-called battle would never wait until you were ready.
Perhaps it had already started, or perhaps it had already started a few days ago.
The Crown Prince and the third Prince came to win Shen lang over to see if there was any room for compromise.
The result was nothing at all.
Then, they would just start fighting.
Logically speaking, the Crown Prince and the third Prince were in a heated battle. Wouldn’t Shen Lang’s interference muddy the waters?
However, in the eyes of the Crown Prince and the third Prince, Shen lang was not qualified.
Ku Huanhuan’s assassination of Marquis Jin Zhuo further ignited the conflict between the Crown Prince and Shen lang.
Would the Crown Prince allow Shen lang to use this as a weapon to attack him?
It wouldn’t.
The Crown Prince would definitely make the first move and drag Shen lang into his battle so that he would have no time to care about anything else.
Something must have happened in the capital.
The other party had already made his move.
What could have happened?
..................
The next morning.
Shen lang led his team back to the capital.
Since the Jin family’s courtyard had been burned down, Jin mucong and Xiaobing were both living in the residence of the fifth Prince, Ning Zheng.
The Empire’s Ambassador, Yun mengze, was also not in the capital. He had returned to the Yan capital for Princess Ning Yan’s divorce!
Previously, when Shen lang returned from his diplomatic mission to the Qiang country, he had made a huge contribution.
During the triumphant return, it was truly a sea of people. The flag fluttered and tens of thousands of people welcomed him.
The king held a grand ceremony.
That time, Shen lang became the hero of the entire capital.
This time, Shen Lang’s contribution was even greater. He destroyed the SU clan and Zheng tuo. It was simply turning the tide and an unparalleled contribution.
He could even be called a hero who saved the country.
However, when he returned to the capital, it was completely silent.
There was no road to welcome them, and the officials did not organize any ceremony to enter the city.
Furthermore, the king was still in the palace in the North and had not returned to the capital.
When he entered the Xuanwu city, Shen lang had to line up like the others and his identity was checked.
The general at the city gate looked at Shen lang for a long time and said, ” from the White Night County? ”
Shen lang nodded.
The general guarding the city gate immediately took a few steps back and shouted, ” “Everyone, retreat immediately. Men, surround this group.”
Suddenly, thousands of Warriors surrounded Shen lang and his 200 men.
The general at the gate said, ” I’m sorry, Master Shen. There is a smallpox outbreak in the White Night County. Anyone who enters the capital has to go through a physical examination and then be quarantined for five days. They can only leave after making sure that they are not infected with the smallpox.
“May I know who gave the order?” Shen lang smiled.
The general at the city gate said, ” the Minister’s platform, the Bureau of Military Affairs, and the central governor’s office have jointly issued an order. I was just following the rules. Please don’t blame me, Sir Shen.
send Sir Shen’s team to the isolated area, ” he ordered loudly. do not allow them to leave the isolated area.
The people behind Shen lang were furious.
We have worked so hard in the White Night County and have made such a great contribution. We have almost saved the entire Yue country from danger.
When he returned to the capital, not only did he not receive the treatment of a hero, but he was also locked up?
It really made him explode with anger.
“May I know who you are?” Shen lang asked.
“Wang Dong, the guerrilla general of the tianyue military governor’s office!” The general said.
Tianyue city was the capital of the country!
Even the names of several provinces were named with the capital as the center: Tiannan province, Tianbei province, and Tianxi province.
Even though the capital was only a city, its status was equivalent to a province.
Not only was there a Tian Yue central military governor’s office, but there was also a Tian Yue military governor’s office.
The Tian Yue central governor’s office was in charge of all the military and political matters of the capital, while the Admiral’s office was in charge of the city defense.
The position of a guerrilla general in the Admiral’s Manor was not low.
Normally, a thousand-man commander would be enough to guard the Xuanwu Gate.
The other party had actually sent a guerrilla general. The other party was really generous.
Shen lang said, ” we have already planted acne in advance. The risk of infection has been completely eliminated. Moreover, I can bring them into the third princess’s residence to isolate themselves. The central governor’s office will send a doctor to check on them and leave after confirming that they are fine.”
“You can’t!” The guerrilla general Wang Dong said, ” city Lord Shen lang, this is the official document from the minister’s desk, the Bureau of Military Affairs, and the central governor’s office. Please take a look!
Shen lang took a look.
It was indeed clearly written on it that anyone who entered the capital from Tianxi province, regardless of how high their official position was, must be quarantined.
Those who returned from the White Night County were not allowed to contact anyone in private. They must nip the epidemic in the bud.
Anyone who disobeyed this order would be immediately arrested.
If they dared to resist, they would be killed without mercy.
This government decree was written in a murderous manner, and there were four big red seals on it.
The Minister’s platform, the Bureau of Military Affairs, the tianyue central governor’s mansion, and the tianyue Admiral’s mansion.
Of course, because the tianyue military governor’s office could not be compared with the three above, the guerrilla general had always said that the three sides had a joint order.
This decree was second only to the emperor’s decree.
It seemed completely reasonable.
However, Shen lang knew that this government decree was targeted at him.
Shen lang, aren’t you awesome?
He had just destroyed su Nan and Zheng tuo, making an unparalleled contribution.
I’m going to ruthlessly destroy your prestige now.
He could even give you a slap on the face.
However, we fought in a legitimate and reasonable way.
With the endorsement of the four top-notch Yamen, even if the king came personally, he would not be able to deny it. Furthermore, the king was still in the palace in the North and had not returned to the capital.
Was it not important to prevent the epidemic?
Was the safety of the millions of people in the capital not important?
Even the military governor of Tianxi province had to be isolated and inspected, let alone a mere Zhenyuan City Master.
Just because you’ve made a great contribution, you can do whatever you want and ignore the safety of the millions of people in the capital?
However, once Shen lang agreed to be isolated.
That would be equivalent to surrendering and being locked up in an abandoned courtyard for a few days and nights.
This was equivalent to putting one’s face close to the other party and letting the other party give him a tight slap.
In this way, the prestige that Shen lang brought about when he killed su Nan was completely destroyed.
Everyone would see that Shen lang was just a small bug in the capital.
The other party had good means indeed.
Politics was a sinister knife that killed without spilling blood.
general Wang Dong, ” Shen lang said slowly. if we are unwilling to be isolated and put under house arrest, what will happen? ”
“Sir Shen, I’m just carrying out a Military Order. Please don’t make things difficult for me,” said Wang Dong, the guerrilla general.
I just want to ask you, ” Shen lang said. if I disobey, what will happen? ”
Wang Dong gripped the hilt of his saber and said coldly, ” “This general has said it clearly, and it is also clearly written on the official documents. Anyone from the White Night County who does not accept quarantine, or even acts of armed resistance, will be killed without mercy for the safety of the millions of people in the capital.”
“Kill without mercy!”
Hundreds of people shouted, and the surrounding people immediately retreated.
However, after retreating a few hundred meters, they began to crowd around again.
fellow citizens of the capital, this is Sir Shen lang! Guerilla general Wang Dong shouted.
Instantly, countless people looked at Shen lang. They were filled with fear and hostility.
That was because the rumor had already caused an uproar in the entire capital.
Shen lang led the Qiang Kingdom’s cavalry into the border and burned, killed, and robbed the White Night Prefecture. They killed more than 10000 people, and nine out of ten rooms were empty. Every family held a funeral.
At that time, Shen lang was the target of public criticism and became the enemy of the Yue country.
Furthermore, Zheng tuo and Liang Yongnian became the great heroes who destroyed the SU Nan rebel army and turned the tide in the crisis of Yue country.
Following that, Shen lang publicly killed the governor of Tianxi province, Liang Yongnian, and led the Qiang cavalry to kill the soldiers of the State of Yue. This caused a huge commotion in the entire state of Yue.
Of course!
After the incident, the officials came out to refute the rumors.
He declared that Liang Yongnian was a traitor of the SU family, and that the West peace general Zheng tuo’s disobeying of the Imperial edict was equivalent to a rebellion.
Not only that, but the king had also ordered the execution of Liang Yongnian’s entire family.
Capture Zheng tuo’s entire clan.
Furthermore, the emperor’s decree clearly stated that Shen lang and Zhang Ji were the ones who contributed the most to the destruction of the SU clan’s rebel army.
However, it was useless to refute the rumors.
After the people vented their anger, they no longer cared about the truth.
There were too many such examples in the public opinion of the future. Who cares about the truth? All he had to do was to be angry and curse.
Moreover, the first impression is the strongest, and a bad person will always be a bad person. If I change my opinion just to refute the rumors, wouldn’t that make me look stupid?
The guerrilla general Wang Dong shouted again, ” as we all know, an unprecedented epidemic of smallpox broke out in the White Night Prefecture. Corpses were strewn all over the ground, making it look like hell on earth. In order to protect the millions of people in the capital, the Board of Ministers, the Bureau of Military Affairs, and the central governor’s office issued this decree. All people from the White Night County must be isolated and inspected.”
“Citizens of the capital, may I ask if there’s anything wrong with this?”
“No, I didn’t!” All the citizens spoke in unison.
Furthermore, they instinctively moved further away from Shen lang and his group.
Heavenly flowers, how terrifying was that?
What if I get infected? People would die if they did.
“General, hurry up and capture them. Lock them up.”
“General, hurry up and do it. Don’t let the news of the heavenly flower Empire reach the capital.”
Countless citizens were shouting.
It was really laughable.
Shen lang had saved countless lives in the White Night Prefecture. His plan had even saved the entire White Night Prefecture. He had completely sealed the flowers within the White Night Prefecture and prevented them from spreading to the outside world.
He had mobilized thousands of troops to seal off the entire White Night Prefecture, and was cursed by countless people.
To put it bluntly, no one in the capital had been infected with smallpox yet, and it was all thanks to Shen lang.
It was all thanks to Shen lang that the people in front of him were not shrouded in the shadow of the god of death.
However, they wanted to put Shen lang and the rest under house arrest.
Guerilla general Wang Dong said, ” city Lord Shen lang, you can see for yourself. This is not only an order from the Minister of State. It is also the voice of the people in the capital.
Then, he suddenly knelt down and said loudly, ” Master Shen, for the safety of the people in the capital, please accept quarantine. Please accept inspection. Please put down your weapons and head to the quarantine zone.
Shen lang sneered in his heart.
If you were worried about heavenly flowers, why would you dare to come so close to me?
You know better than anyone that we are completely immune to smallpox, and there is no risk.
“Moreover, even if we’re quarantined, we don’t need to disarm ourselves. We’ll go to the third princess’s residence and close the door to isolate ourselves. You can just supervise us.
Why did they disarm? Why did he have to go to the abandoned isolation corridor to put her under house arrest?
Do you think we’re beggars?
If this wasn’t a slap in the face, what was it?
If this wasn’t a set-up, what was it?
Seeing that Shen lang was unmoved, Wang Dong knelt down and said, ” city Lord Shen lang, I know that you have done a great service. In terms of official position, I am two to three ranks higher than you. However, for the sake of the people in the capital, I will kneel down before you. I will kneel down before you.
Instantly, the surrounding people were touched.
“This general is really a good official.”
this General’s name is Wang Dong. I’ll remember him. He’s such a good official. He knelt down to Shen lang for the sake of our people.
Shen lang is too domineering. Does he think that he can do whatever he wants just because he has made some contributions? does he think that he can ignore the lives of the people? ”
“Yeah, he’s too domineering and unreasonable. What they said before was right, this person will become a scourge sooner or later.”
The guerrilla general Wang Dong said, ” Sir Shen lang, please disarm. Please accept the quarantine inspection. For the people of the capital, please disarm and quarantine.
It was for the common people again.
Why was the moral high ground occupied by people all the time?
“General Wang Dong, What if I don’t accept it?” Shen lang shouted.
Guerilla general Wang Dong shouted, ” city Lord Shen lang, are you actually going to ignore the safety of the people in the capital?! You don’t care about the lives of the people?”
As soon as he said this, the countless people who were watching from afar cheered.
“Disarm, disarm!”
“Isolate, isolate!”
Shen lang, disarm. Shen lang, isolate.
Instantly, Wu lie and slave Xian, who were behind Shen lang, were about to explode from anger.
The sword King Li qianqiu also sighed.
It was said that the people of the world were innocent.
However, there were no innocent people in the world. Just like the avalanche in the great calamity Palace, not a single snowflake was innocent.
Shen lang said slowly, ” general Wang Dong, I’ll still say the same thing. If I don’t disarm and isolate you, what do you plan to do? ”
Wang Dong’s eyes flashed with pride, then he said with extreme grief and indignation, ” city Lord Shen lang, I’m sorry. For the safety of the people in the capital, I can only execute the military Order. I hope you don’t mind!
Then, general Wang Dong stood up and shouted, ” citizens of the capital, you have to be my witness. I have already done my best for city Lord Shen lang. If there are any unreasonable actions, I have no choice.
“We will witness it, we will witness it!” Countless citizens waved their fists and shouted.
“All troops, get ready!” Wang Dong, the guerrilla general, shouted.
Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!
Instantly, the 1000 soldiers under his command surrounded Shen Lang’s 200 men!
Guerilla general Wang Dong said, ” city Lord Shen lang, please lay down your weapons. Please follow us to the quarantine area.
“Disarm and isolate!”
“Disarm and isolate!”
The crowd shouted.
Shen lang waved his hand.
Immediately, the two hundred Warriors behind him entered battle mode!
The guerrilla general Wang Dong’s voice was filled with sternness as he roared, ” “City Lord Shen lang, are you going to engage in an armed confrontation? Are you going to disobey the decree of the Minister of State?”
I’ll count down from five. If you still don’t disarm yourself, we’ll regard it as an armed resistance. According to the decree, you’ll be killed without mercy!
“Five!”
“Four!”
“Three!”
“Ready!”
The guerrilla general Wang Dong gave the order.
The 1,000 elites of the capital drew their swords in unison, their battle intent soaring.
“Three, two, one!” Wang Dong, the general of guerrilla warfare, continued his countdown.
“Time’s Up!”
General Shen lang, I have already given you a chance. Since you are so stubborn, don’t blame me for being merciless!
“All the people in the city can testify for me. I did it for the people, for the safety of the capital!”
“Do it!”
Immediately, the 1000 elites from the Admiral’s Manor raised their sabers and approached.
In the cover of the crowd, the general of guerrilla warfare, Wang Dong, grinned slightly. City Lord Shen lang, you asked for this.
we have a thousand men, you only have two hundred.
“If you dare to make a move, it will be considered a rebellion.”
“City Lord Shen lang, if you dare to make a move, you are rebelling against bi an.”
This was the capital, not Xuanwu city or the White Night County. Even if it was a Dragon, it had better stay put.
Shen lang looked at Wang Dong and said, ” “Idiot!”
“Dumb, close your eyes and kill!”
Shen lang gave the order.
Da Sha closed his eyes, raised the black iron stick in his hand, and smashed it down.
The guerrilla general Wang Dong was shocked and shouted, ” “Shen lang, you dare? Are you planning a rebellion? Kill without mercy, kill without mercy!”
“Bang!”
The moment dumb’s Black iron rod smashed down.
Dong Wang quickly raised his saber to block, and his saber shattered.
Then, the black iron cudgel hit his head and body!
“Bang!”
Guerrilla general Wang Dong’s head exploded, and his body exploded.
He died a tragic death!
It was a tragic sight!
“Idiot!” Shen lang said in disdain.
Everyone was shocked!
