Chapter 299: Great success! The ultimate truth!
Translator: 549690339
(Thank you for the 50000 Yuan tip from the Alliance master.)
Five hundred ruffians stood on the ground, trembling in fear.
Both their souls and bodies had suffered an unprecedented impact.
Following this, there would be more people dying.
Because some people had wounds on their bodies, after soaking in the dirty water, they would become infected and die.
&Nbsp; moreover, the pit was filled with a large amount of hydrogen sulfide, as well as various ammonia and methane.
Although these people had managed to climb up, they had already inhaled a large amount of poisonous gas.
How many more of them would die?
He did not know.
Shen lang covered his nose and looked at them from afar.
to be honest, I’ve already been merciful this time. Everyone, take care.
“If you want to take revenge on me, you’re always welcome!”
Then, Shen lang left with his men.
Leaving behind the 500 surviving local ruffians, who looked at each other.
She began to cry.
She had never been so miserable in her life.
He had never been so humiliated.
It was unforgettable!
After crying, the group of ruffians began to regret.
I’m really blinded by lard, why did I have to provoke the crazy Sheng Shen lang?
How many people had he killed in Tianxi province before? It’s not like we don’t know.
He really regretted it.
Why did they have to provoke this devil incarnate!
..................
The matter of the failed candidates crying at the Holy Temple caused a huge commotion, as if it was going to shock the heavens.
It looked like it couldn’t be suppressed at all.
However, it was like a tornado sweeping away the clouds, and it was completely resolved in just four hours.
It was like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.
Thousands of failed candidates and scholars had disappeared without a trace.
There was nothing around the Holy Temple.
There were only a few dozen bodies, pools of blood, and countless pieces of trash.
The dozen or so courtesans who came out to freeload on the hot topic definitely deserved to die.
A few months ago, they had hyped up the news like crazy.
Zheng tuo and Liang Yongnian, the two treacherous officials, had clearly not made any contributions, but in the end, they were bragged by them that they had made immortal contributions, and bragged that they were the Jade pillars that turned the country’s tide, just because Zheng tuo had effortlessly taken down the Marquis Zhenyuan’s residence.
Zheng tuo sent an Army to pretend to be the cavalry of the Qiang Kingdom and started a massacre. They burned, killed, and robbed crazily. They even framed Shen lang.
It’s these courtesans again. This group of trenders of public opinion is desperately hyping up the news in the capital. They wanted to lure the Barbarian race into their country, replicate the tragedy that happened a hundred years ago, and be the traitor of Yue country.
Even though the officials later refuted the rumors, Zheng tuo and Liang Yongnian were identified as traitors, and Shen lang and Zhang Ji were the ones who suppressed the SU family’s rebellion.
But by that time, the rumors had already been spreading for a long time.
When they tried to refute the rumors, the people would no longer care.
Shen lang had led the barbarians into the country to burn, kill, and pillage. This had already become the fixed impression of the people.
When Zheng tuo and Liang Yongnian died, there were even people who secretly burned joss paper to pay their respects, as if they were loyal officials who had died unjustly.
Where was the logic in this?
The king, ning yuanxian, was already suppressing his anger towards these people.
However, he was not in the capital at the time, and by the time he returned, these top courtesans had already given up.
In the end, right now at the crying Saint temple, you courtesans couldn’t wait to rush out again?
He wanted his reputation more than his life.
Are you flies? You pounce on wherever there’s sh * t?
Therefore, the king had given an oral order to little eunuch li, that everyone present, whether they were courtesans or prostitutes, would be killed!
As a result, these dozen beauties all died a tragic death.
They were the dream lovers of countless scholars, but they had all died in an instant.
And this time, the matter of the crying Saint temple was handled according to Prime Minister Zhu Hong’s words.
Using thunderous means to show his Bodhisattva heart.
He had killed dozens of the perpetrators.
Nineteen people were stripped of their achievements.
Pursue the responsibility of one hundred and thirty-five people, and never participate in the imperial examination for life.
Write down 1500 people and stop the imperial examination for one round.
However, all the scholars who were present at the Holy Temple were registered and left with a lifelong stain.
If they committed the same crime again, they would be stripped of all their titles and achievements, shackled, and sent to the border as slaves.
Immediately, the thousands of candidates trembled in fear and scattered.
In the end, the monarch gave an edict.
The Enke civil and military examination this time was fair and without any fraud. The results were real and valid.
All the examiners were rewarded.
At this point, the entire storm was completely settled!
..................
Prime Minister Zhu hongzhu summoned Zhang Ji.
someone is trying to mess with you. There’s a lot of evidence! “Some say that you’re corrupt, and some say that you’ve killed an entire family,” Zhu Hong said.
He killed his entire family.
Of course, it was to kill Xu Guangyun’s family.
“There are also people saying that you robbed the people and obtained gold and silver but didn’t hand it over, filling your own pockets.”
some even said that you and Shen lang worked together and killed thousands of innocent people.
These two incidents were both in the White Night Prefecture. Shen lang and Zhang Yan had worked together to scam thousands of civilians and earned hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
The money was not turned in. It was all used to bribe the people of the White Night County to resist the SU family’s rebel army.
“I’ve rejected all of them.” Zhu hongzhu shook his head,”we can’t do without party politics, but we have to be clear about the primary and secondary ..”
Zhang Ye bowed and did not say anything.
some people said that you betrayed the Zhu family. However, you said that you just don’t want to be Shen Lang’s enemy. I believe that, ” Zhu hongzhu said.
Zhang Ji bowed again.
Zhu hongzhu said, ” Zhang Ji, you used to be His Majesty’s knife. You could only be used to kill. Now, you have changed. You have the bearing of a Minister. Talents are hard to come by, so the position of Minister should still be reserved for you. Even if you’re not in my Zhu family, you can still be the Prime Minister.”
Zhang Ji didn’t say anything and continued to bow to the ground.
“But I have something to tell you,” Zhu Hong said.
“Minister Zhu, please advise me,” Zhang Ye said respectfully.
“Don’t just focus on Yue country, focus on the entire Great Yan Empire,” Zhu hongzhu said.
“Yes,” Zhang Ye said.
Zhu hongzhu said,”in addition, since you want to avoid disputes, you should avoid them completely and remain neutral.” Don’t get tangled up with Shen lang, it’s easy to get into trouble.”
“Thank you for your guidance, Minister Zhu,” Zhang Ji said without answering.
The next day at the court session.
Prime Minister Zhu hongzhu recommended Zhang Ji to be the governor of Yan Zhou.
The king, ning yuanxian, was slightly stunned.
Weiwu Duke, Xiao Xiao, had only expressed this intention in private. He had not officially submitted a Memorial yet.
The Prime Minister, you’re one step ahead?
Prime Minister Zhu hongzhu had been recuperating at home for a long time and did not attend court. Even if he did, he did not speak much.
And once he opened his mouth.
His mouth turned into gold.
Previously, when ning yuanxian wanted to personally lead the Army, the officials had stopped him, and it was Zhu Hong who had decided the situation.
A few days ago, the civil and military officials wanted to use the incident at the scholar’s crying holy temple to start a shocking rebellion. They wanted to make the cheating of the imperial examination an ironclad case. They wanted to take the opportunity to kill Shen lang and force the Emperor, ning yuanxian, to compromise and give in.
Zhu Hong’s words were still the deciding factor, suppressing the officials. Without the support of the court officials, the scholars of the crying Sage temple were of no use. They were wiped out like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, and the shocking incident was instantly eliminated.
It was the same this time!
Once Prime Minister Zhu hongzhu spoke, he would make it true.
Right now, almost no one could deny Zhu Hong. The consequences were too severe.
The Zhu family’s power was unrivaled in the entire Eastern world, and they were one of the top noble families in the great Yan Empire.
When Jiang Li was destroyed, ning yuanxian, as his admirer, had also encountered great trouble.
The so-called great trouble was very likely the danger of abdication, or even the danger of life and death.
After Jiang Li’s destruction, many countries were identified as his accomplices.
The sovereigns of some countries were directly dismissed.
Some countries were even destroyed by the Empire of Great Yan’s Allied army.
Not only did ning yuanxian admire Jiang Li, but he also had an engagement with him.
At the critical moment, he dethroned the Queen and made the Zhu family his Empress.
The Zhu family’s influence in Yan capital had allowed ning yuanxian to survive the fatal crisis.
Therefore, ning yuanxian was not just called Prime Minister for no reason.
However, Zhu Hong had the power of a powerful official, but not the actions of one.
He knew that his prestige and power were too high, so he basically did not appear in the court.
However, once he appeared and spoke ...
No one could stop him.
“Prime Minister’s suggestion is good. What do you all think?” ning yuanxian smiled.
The civil and military officials all knelt down and said, ” “Very good, we agree!”
“Zhang Ji, are you willing to go?” ning yuanxian asked again.
“Your humble subject is willing!” Zhang Ye knelt down and said.
King ning yuanxian said,”I hereby decree that Zhang Ji will be appointed as the governor of Yanzhou!”
At this point, the matter was settled.
The next day, Zhang Ji left the capital for Yan Zhou to take up his new post.
Speaking of which, this position had been his for almost half a year. In the end, after going around in a big circle, he still returned to the starting point.
However, Zhang Ji’s identity had completely changed.
He was no longer an official of the Zhu Department.
Some people had originally labeled him as a traitor to the crown prince’s faction, but after Zhu hongzhu’s recommendation, Zhang Ji’s name was cleared.
He had completely become a neutral party.
This was an unspoken rule.
Initially, Zhang San was already close to Shen lang and Prince Ning Zheng’s side.
However, Zhu hongzhu’s large hand gently pushed it away.
From now on, Zhang Ji could only remain neutral.
Shen lang saved your life, so I, Zhu Hong, will also be grateful to you for not killing you and for your recommendation.
You, Zhang Ji, can either reject the position of Governor.
If you accept this position, it means that you have tacitly drawn a clear line with Ning Zheng’s side.
We don’t care about your personal relationship with Shen lang.
However, in terms of politics, they absolutely could not have any connections.
If you agree, the position of the future Prime Minister will still be yours.
If he didn’t agree, he would face an all-out attack from the Zhu family.
Once Zhu Hong decided to attack him, Zhang Jing would be powerless to retaliate and would die without a doubt.
Shen lang could not save him, but Bian Xiao could.
However, Bian Xiao would not offend the Zhu family for Zhang Ji, and even if he could protect Zhang Ji, he could not protect his political life.
Zhang Ye had no other choice.
He was grateful to Shen lang and could even be considered a close friend of his.
However, he would not give up his political ideals for Shen lang.
It was for this reason.
Shen lang did not send Zhang Ji off when he went to his new post.
Before Zhang San left, he did not say goodbye to Shen lang.
The two of them still had a personal relationship, but they were once again on the same path in politics.
Shen lang sighed.
The Prime Minister was the real expert.
It was loud but silent, and the elephant was invisible.
His attack seemed to have no smoke or fire, nor was there any confrontation, not even a fight without breaking.
On the surface, he did not seem to have any intention of targeting Shen lang.
However, he had easily cut off Zhang Ji’s retreat to Ning Zheng’s side.
Zhang Ji was probably the only Minister who could be loyal to Ning Zheng, and he was a super capable Minister.
According to the original plan.
The crown prince’s group attacked Zhang Ji in a frenzy.
Shen lang protected Zhang Ji in front of the monarch, and at the crucial moment, Ning Zheng went to beg concubine Bian to let Duke Weiwu, qu Xiao, take action and officially submit a memorial to the monarch for Zhang Ji.
This way, Zhang Ji’s relationship with the Zhu family and the crown prince’s faction was completely broken.
Ning Zheng had saved his life. To a certain extent, the position of governor of Yan Province could be considered a gift from Ning Zheng.
Zhu Hong easily cut off this path.
Most importantly, Shen lang was unable to defend or counterattack.
Because it was not considered as attacking you at all.
..................
The monarch seemed to know that Shen lang was depressed.
On the second day after Zhang Ji’s appointment, he officially issued the decree.
He conferred lanyou the title of official Registrar of the Marquis of Changping, a secondary rank 6 official position.
Ku Yichen was conferred the title of thousand-man commander of Marquis Changping, while LAN one, LAN two, Wu Lan ten, and the others were conferred the title of thousand-man commander of Marquis Changping.
At this point!
Ning Zheng could be considered to have truly opened his Manor.
The entire frame was completely set up.
........................
The crown prince’s residence!
Crown Prince Ning Yi was playing with something in his hand as usual.
This time, the thing he was playing with looked a little special, like a bone.
This could be considered a Buddhist relic, a gift from Xuan Kong temple.
They should have been worshiped.
But the Crown Prince was still playing with it.
“Have you investigated clearly?”
yes, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan said. lunatic LAN and the ten beggars all have special bloodlines. Shen lang thought of a way to activate their bloodline, so they returned to normal and stood out in the martial arts examination. It’s not that one month of training is that powerful, but it’s that the bloodline power of the past few decades has been completely released.”
“Then, can we use this incident to suppress Shen lang and label these people as Jiang Li’s Renegade?” the Registrar of the residence of the Crown Prince asked.
Zhuo Zhaoyan shook her head and refused. After the destruction of the Zhuo clan, the Empire of Great Yan actually let go of this matter completely. These people with special bloodlines were not counted as Jiang Li’s remnants, and they even let Zhong chuke off.”
“Your Majesty, are you really going to let go of this?” the official Registrar of the crown prince’s residence asked.
Zhuo Zhaoyan said, ” the Zhuo family adopted Zhuo Yichen. He was identified as a remnant of Jiang Li. His family was exterminated. However, since then, the Emperor of Great Yan decreed that when Jiang Li rebelled, these people with special bloodlines were still young and had no right or wrong in their hearts. Those who did not know were innocent, and all the countries in the world could use them without worry.”
Not only that.
The master of the sky-Sea Pavilion, Zuo Ci, the master of the xuankong temple, and the other Masters of the sacred organizations all vouched for these people with special bloodlines and recruited them.
It was precisely because of the protection of these Supreme figures.
Only this group of people with special bloodlines could completely clear their names of rebellion.
Originally, this group of people were called the remaining members of Jiang Li’s bloodline, but now they were directly called members of special bloodlines.
Otherwise, why would Pavilion master Zuo Ci accept Huan Zhuo Yichen as an in-name disciple? it was just to show his attitude.
He was not the only one. Several sacred organizations in the world had also accepted these people with special bloodlines as disciples.
Ku touhuan was one of the parties involved, but his position was too low. He had always thought that he was too talented and that was why he was chosen by the sky-Sea Pavilion.
Little did they know that this matter was the common will of several great sacred organizations.
Xuankong temple, stupa mountain, sky-Sea Pavilion, Tong Tian tower, white jade City, and many others.
These hands fiddled with it for a while.
Ku Huanhuan’s identity as Jiang Li’s remnant was instantly cleared.
The identities of lunatic LAN and the ten LAN brothers could also be made public.
The Zhuo clan would be considered a complete sacrifice.
As a survivor, Zhuo Zhaoyan received pity from the sacred organizations and was compensated slightly.
Madman LAN was at the bottom and couldn’t see the direction of the top at all, so he had been acting crazy and stupid, not daring to let his ten brothers stand out, for fear of suffering a disaster.
Not only did he have a hard time, but LAN Bao also almost died mysteriously. The Zhong family was almost implicated.
So sometimes, you might seem very close, but he was actually very far away.
For example, you wouldn’t be able to get close to a Mirage in the desert even if you walked to your death.
The sky-Sea Pavilion was one such Pavilion.
To Shen lang, the sky-Sea Pavilion was very close to him. He even had an affair with Zhang Yuyin, the female scholar.
Furthermore, all the scholars were kind to him. He could even enter and leave the sky-Sea Pavilion freely. He even sent Tang Yan, the martial arts fanatic and the wife of li qianqiu, to the sky-Sea Pavilion for protection.
They seemed to have a very close relationship.
The sky-Sea Pavilion seemed to be Shen Lang’s ally and backing.
In fact, that was not the case at all!
Zuo Ci, the leader of the sky-Sea Pavilion, was like a god who was high up in the clouds. No one could touch him.
Shen lang finally understood that Zuo Ci was not on the list of the six grandmasters in Yue country.
That was because the so-called six grandmasters were just a title and rules.
And Zuo Ci was the one who set the rules.
He appeared to be affable, but that didn’t mean he was really like that.
The Zhuo family was so prominent in the past. Zhuo Guangbo was the great general of Pingnan, which was more impressive than the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
In the end, he could directly crush and exterminate the entire clan with a finger.
Such a glorious Zhuo clan was exterminated overnight and became the top secret of Yue country. It was like a black hole, deep and bottomless.
In the past, bitter joy and Zhuo Zhaoyan had imagined countless enemies and conspiracies in their minds.
However, who was the main culprit behind the destruction of the Zhuo clan? Do you know?
Princess Ninghan!
She, Zhu hongxue, and a Prince of the Empire of Great Yan were studying the ancient books that they had found in the sky-Sea Pavilion.
Then, she saw the bitter Huan Zhuo Yichen.
Back then, Zhuo Yichen had been sent to the sky-Sea Pavilion because his body and face had been distorted, but no one could find the reason.
With just one look, Ning Han determined that this was a special bloodline warrior under Jiang Li’s command. His power was too strong and couldn’t be guided, so his body was distorted.
Just this one sentence.
The Prince of the Empire of Great Yan had exterminated the entire Zhuo clan.
After the incident, Princess Ning Han angrily said, ” there were so many war refugees back then, and so many people with special bloodlines. Do we have to kill them all? ”
Then, Princess Ning Han went to look for her teacher, Zuo Ci.
Zuo Ci went to find the other leaders of the sacred organizations.
A few powerful figures expressed their stance and accepted those with special bloodlines as in-name disciples.
After that, the Emperor of the Empire of Great Yan issued a decree that these people with special bloodlines were not guilty.
The Zhuo family had been annihilated because of a casual sentence from Ning Han.
The Zhuo family’s innocence had been restored because of what Ning Han had said.
When Zhuo Zhaoyan found the answer, she was in despair.
She had found the main culprit behind the destruction of her family, but her heart was in even more pain.
There was no conspiracy at all.
The seemingly glorious and powerful Zhuo clan was like an ant in the eyes of these great figures.
Don’t even mention crushing it with a finger.
If someone’s foot accidentally stepped on you, your entire clan would be trampled to death.
After that, he lifted his leg and saw the many ant carcasses, and his heart became kind.
As a result, the surviving ants survived.
Hence, Zhuo Zhaoyan no longer thought about revenge. She only wanted to climb up with all her might.
Because he had seen the truth of the world’s most powerful power.
She knew very well that among the sons of ning yuanxian, there was only one who was truly powerful.
Princess Ninghan.
Even though she had never appeared.
She was the direct disciple of Pavilion master Zuo Ci.
Pavilion master Zuo Ci was one of the few people who made the rules in the world.
After the destruction of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Zhaoyan had fallen into the dust. She was even more pitiful than the lowest-level prostitute.
So how did she rise to power?
Not only did she become the yin Yuan Association’s representative, but she also became Crown Prince Ning Yi’s mistress in name?
Just because of one sentence.
Princess Ning Han said to her,”sorry.”
Just because of this apology, Zhuo Zhaoyan rose from hell to heaven.
As the saying goes, when a person achieves Dao, his chickens and dogs will rise to the heavens.
Zhuo Zhaoyan borrowed Princess Ning Han’s words and, like an ant that had landed on Ning Han’s wings, she followed her into the sky.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the Yue country was fighting for the throne.
However, in Zhuo Zhaoyan’s eyes, Crown Prince Ning Yi and Princess Ning Han were born from the same mother, and they had acknowledged Queen Zhu as their stepmother.
He had the support of the huge Zhu family and Princess Ning Han.
The crown prince’s position was as stable as Mount Tai. It was not something that anyone could shake, not even the king.
Shen lang is so lucky. He found lunatic LAN and 10 people with special bloodlines. The official Registrar of the crown prince’s residence said,”can’t we really use this opportunity to stir up trouble?” After all, these people are the remnants of Jiang Li.”
don’t court death, ” Zhuo Zhaoyan said coldly. the people with special bloodlines have been completely washed clean. With the guarantee of a few sacred organizations and the decree of the great Yan Empire’s Emperor, no one is allowed to play any tricks on this matter, do you understand?”
“Zhuo Zhaoyan,” the Crown Prince suddenly said,”didn’t you already kill ku Huan? Why isn’t he dead yet?”
Zhuo Zhaoyan knelt down immediately.
Previously, no one knew that Shen Lang’s newly recruited thousand-man commander was in a difficult situation. However, when the king conferred him the title of thousand-man commander of Marquis Changping, he still took off his mask.
Then, Zhuo Zhaoyan had personally seen it from a distance.
She was sure that this person was happy to suffer.
No words could describe the shock she felt.
Ku Huan didn’t die?
How was this possible?
He had clearly consumed the stupa mountain’s poison, and his chest had been pierced.
He didn’t die even after this?
Was this a ghost?
“You, why didn’t you behead him back then?” The Crown Prince said coldly.
“Chenqie was wrong,” Zhuo Zhaoyan kowtowed and said.
The Crown Prince looked at the golden hairpin on Zhuo Zhaoyan’s head and gently pulled it off.
“Pfft!”
It stabbed into Zhuo Zhaoyan’s chest.
Zhuo Zhaoyan’s peaks were pierced through, and the golden hairpin was less than half an inch away from her heart.
If she went any further, she would be dead for sure.
The Crown Prince pulled out the golden hairpin and stabbed it into the other side of Zhuo Zhaoyan’s chest.
Once again, it pierced through the mountain and into his lungs.
Zhuo Zhaoyan coughed, and a mouthful of blood gushed out of her windpipe. However, she tried her best to hold it in and did not dare to spit it out.
“The great thief ku Huan has committed a great crime, and father once ordered his arrest. Now that ku Huanhuan is hiding in fifth brother’s residence under a different name, he is in great danger to fifth brother and the safety of the capital.”
order the tianyue military governor’s office to join forces with the Supreme Court to go to the Ningming government’s residence to arrest the criminal, bitter joy. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!
“Yes!”
........................
In the palace!
The king summoned Shen lang.
Shen lang, you’re really gutsy and lucky to have found 11 people with special bloodlines.
actually, the ban on this matter has been lifted a long time ago, ” Shen lang said. now, even the Prince of the great Yan Empire is looking for people with special bloodlines!
The monarch waved his hand and didn’t want to talk about this matter anymore.
The matter of Jiang Li’s remnant had been deeply engraved in his heart.
Shen lang, I have a bet with you. As long as the 11 beggars have their names on the gold roll, I will give you 2000 private soldiers.
“Your Majesty, it’s not for me. It’s for His Highness Ning Zheng’s private army,” Shen lang quickly said.
Ning yuanxian frowned. He just didn’t want to talk about Ning Zheng.
“You must accept your loss. You’ve won.” The monarch said,”I will keep my promise. Have you taken a fancy to my Army?” Imperial Army? The border Army? No matter which elite troop it is, as long as you have your eyes on them, I will transfer them to you and make them under Ning Zheng’s command.”
“Your Majesty, I want to recruit my own soldiers,” Shen lang said.
Ning yuanxian was stunned and asked,”recruit soldiers by himself?” Or are you going to set up a stall to recruit soldiers like you did before?”
Shen lang said, ” that’s right. I want to use the highest pay to recruit an unprecedented Army. I want to create an invincible army in the shortest time possible! I want this Army to become the most powerful Army in the State of Yue. No matter which battlefield they go to, they will strike fear into the hearts of all enemies.”
“What a big mouth, what a big mouth.” The monarch said disdainfully,”do you know how long it takes to train soldiers?” You’re very powerful, but you only succeeded this time because you found 11 people with special bloodlines. There are fewer and fewer people with special bloodlines in the world now. If you want to recruit and train soldiers from scratch, there are two thousand of them. How can you train them to be the number one invincible army in Yue country? You’re talking big and dreaming.”
Then, the monarch waved his hand and said, ” don’t waste your time. You’ve started recruiting and training soldiers from scratch. How many years will it take for an Army to be formed? ” I’ll transfer 1000 soldiers from the Imperial Army and 1000 soldiers from the border Army to you. It’s decided. Don’t waste any more time.”
Shen lang said, ” four months. In four months at most, I can make them the strongest army in Yue country. At that time, these 2000 people will be able to defeat 4000,8000, or even 10000 people on the battlefield.”
The monarch’s eyes narrowed.
Shen lang said,”Your Majesty, I’m serious!” I’ll give you another Military Order. I’ll start recruiting and training soldiers from scratch, and within four months, I’ll train them into the strongest army. At that time, I’ll ask you to check and accept it. ”
The monarch sneered,”how?” A martial arts performance? Are you just putting on a show?”
Shen lang said,”King Chu has already formed an alliance with the king of the south beating country. Therefore, he will definitely not admit defeat during the negotiation.” However, it’s impossible for us to truly have a decisive battle with the Chu State. Thus, His Majesty has decided to hold a border hunting competition.”
Hunting at the border? This was also a way to resolve the conflict between two countries. It could be considered a small-scale war.
Previously, the king of Yue and the King of Wu had a hunting competition at the border, and he had lost.
In fact, it was the loss of that border hunting competition that led to the beginning of a series of crises in the State of Yue.
“How do you know how to hunt?” the monarch asked.
Shen lang said,”use the 2000 new soldiers that I trained to fight against the 5000 soldiers of Chu.” If we win, the Chu country will concede and not only will we withdraw all our troops, the King of Chu will also apologize to you, pay a compensation of 500000 gold coins, and cede 23 fortresses!”
“What if we lose?” ning yuanxian asked in surprise.
Shen lang said, ” Your Majesty, apologize to the King of Chu. Admit that the Chu country has occupied 23 of our fortresses. Also, pay 200000 gold coins to the Chu country.
After he said that, ning yuanxian was instantly enraged and was about to kick Shen lang.
“You stupid child, do we have any enmity? How dare you trick me like this? do you treat national affairs as child’s play? Are you dreaming if you think that the 2000 new soldiers you trained can defeat 5000 elite soldiers of Chu? Do you think national affairs are your testing ground?”
Of course, Shen lang could not let him kick him, so he quickly dodged.
The monarch didn’t hit him, so he chased after him and kicked him.
Therefore, Shen lang ran in front while the monarch chased after him.
The head eunuch Li Sun was once again helpless when he saw this.
Your Majesty, you do have martial arts, and it’s very high. On the other hand, Shen lang was a weakling. If he really wanted to kick him, he would be dead with one kick. What was the point of chasing after him?
And at this moment!
Little eunuch li rushed in.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”
Her Highness, Princess Ninghan, has returned!
Ning yuanxian was stunned, then surprised, and then overjoyed.
Ning Han was back?
His most precious daughter had returned?
Even his greatest pride had returned?
How many years had it been? He had not seen his daughter for more than ten years.
Even though Ning Han was not by his side, she was in the core of the world’s highest power. Even if she was not in Yue country, she would still help him, her father.
“Quick, quick, let Ninghan in.”
“No, I will personally go and welcome my daughter.”
Shen lang, you stupid child, come with me and meet Ninghan.
