Chapter 85: Great sage Shen, you’re too awesome!
Translator: 549690339
City Lord Li Fang was really stunned!
Young man, I just didn’t want you to disappoint me, but Yingying didn’t expect you to be so outstanding and fierce.
I’ve been an official for so many years, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a vicious young man like you.
The moment he made a move, it was to end his life.
Shen lang said to Wang Shiming and the rest, ” “Did you all see that? This is a rebellion case, and you idiots still want to take the blame for others? you might still be thinking that someone will send money to your families after being exiled to Southmountain Island. Don’t be naive, Yingluo.”
Shen lang laughed,”you will be killed before you even reach Southmountain Island.”
what will happen to your elderly parents after you die? ”
“What about the young and charming wife? What about my young and beautiful sister?”
Zhu Wenhua was about to explode from anger.
Shen lang, f * ck your mother.
There should be a limit to your venomous slander.
However, Wang Shiming and the other two were obviously shocked by Shen Lang’s conspiracy theory.
One of the lackeys finally couldn’t help but shout, ” “It’s young master Zhu Wenhua. He spent money to hire us to burn chunse square. We really didn’t know that it was the ‘new policy edict’. He told us that the books were all Shen Lang’s.”
“Master Shen, I just read your book today. It’s so well written. I’m a big fan of yours. Please don’t hurt your own people.”
yes, yes, young master Shen, I also bought your book, and I even bought two of them. Because when I just got to the school, I found that some illustrations had been torn off, so I had no choice but to buy another book.
“We’re on the same side, please don’t hurt anyone by accident.”
Shen lang was stunned.
I thought that I was the only one who was so shameless. How could you brainless scholars be so shameless?
However, it was fine as long as he was willing to acknowledge Zhu Wenhua.
“Are you sure it was Zhu Wenhua who ordered you to burn the emperor’s ‘new policy edict’?” Shen lang asked.
“Yes, yes.” “It’s Zhu Wenhua,” one of the lackeys said.
Shen lang said,”is he unhappy with the new policies?” After all, his family has just lost their fief and military power.”
The lackeys were stunned. They had never heard Zhu Wenhua mention this before.
Shen Lang’s gaze turned cold.
“Yes, yes. Zhu Wenhua has always been dissatisfied with the new policies.” The lackeys nodded their heads vigorously.
shameless, extremely shameless! Zhu Wenhua pointed at his lackeys, his heart filled with rage.
Usually, you guys eat and drink my food, and are as obedient as sheep.
Now, you dare to slander me? You actually dare to bite me back?
city Lord, ” Shen lang said, ” now that we have the witness and material evidence, we can make a case.
City Lord Li Fang was speechless. She waved at Shen lang and said, ” “Young master Shen, come here!”
Me? That won’t do.
I care about my reputation the most. I am the son-in-law of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. You want me to go over?
Shen lang stood still.
City Lord Li Fang smiled helplessly and walked toward Shen lang.
Uncle Shen lang, you and I have known each other for half a day. your ” endless moon and wind ” is amazing, ” Mayor Li Fang said. it’ll be my pillow. I’ll read it ten times, twenty times.
Shen lang did not speak.
He knew what Li Fang was going to say next. If he spoke first, he would lose the initiative.
City Lord Li Fang continued,”when will the second volume be out?” I’m really itching for it. ”
Shen lang revealed an impeccable smile.
City Lord Li Fang was even more speechless. The pretty boy in front of her was even more cunning than she had imagined. He was indeed the author of ” endless wind and moon.
“I would like to apologize to young master Shen,” Mayor Li Fang said.”I could have stopped Zhu Wenhua from leading his men to burn your books.” But I really want to know, how capable is a person who can write such an amazing book? If you can’t even handle this small crisis, then I’ll be too disappointed.”
but I really didn’t expect this situation. City Lord Li Fang exclaimed.
He was telling the truth.
Zhu Wenhua only wanted to burn Shen Lang’s books, but Shen lang wanted to kill him and drag his entire family down with him.
This desire for revenge, this power for revenge, was truly a little frightening.
“Mayor Li Fang, you’re wrong.” Shen lang said. Zhu Wenhua didn’t burn my book, he burned the king’s ‘new policy edict’. This is a rebellion, and I’m just passing by to apply some lubricating oil. Look, it’s even rose-scented. This matter has nothing to do with me. ”
Shen lang was certain that Zhu Wenhua incited the scholars to go against the new policy and planned a rebellion.
Mayor Li Fang said helplessly,”young master Shen, I know that you want to kill this Zhu Wenhua, and you even want to drag the Zhu family into this.” But Yingluo can’t.”
Shen lang ignored him.
City Lord Li Fang immediately made her words more clear, ” “The Viscount of Lanshan, Zhu Lanting, has just handed over his fief and military power. He has been praised by the king as a model for the aristocrats. If Zhu Wenhua went against the new governance, it would be a slap to the monarch’s face. Do you know what the consequences will be if the king really punishes the Lanshan Viscount?”
What consequences?
Of course, it was the old nobles who were celebrating.
Zhu Lanting, The Viscount of Lanshan, handed over his fief and military power, but he was still killed by the monarch.
Therefore, everyone had to fight to the end. They must not hand over their military power and fiefs.
Mayor Li Fang said, ” so, let’s not talk about the fact that you framed Zhu Wenhua. Even if he really resented you and secretly opposed the new government, the most he could do was to have Viscount Lanshan put him under house arrest. He wouldn’t have actually punished him.
Of course, Shen lang knew about this.
When Zhu Lanting handed over his fief and military power, he became the role model of the old noble families. He had a political amulet.
To put it bluntly, as long as he didn’t really rebel, the monarch would definitely not punish him.
That was because the new policies had not succeeded yet, and the military power and fiefs in the hands of many old nobles had not been handed over.
Zhu Lanting was one of the flags of the monarch.
so, young master Shen, it’s impossible for you to pin the crime of rebellion on Zhu Wenhua, ” Li Fang said. I don’t dare to accept this matter, and I can’t arrest Zhu Wenhua either. Otherwise, it’ll put the Emperor in a difficult position. It’ll be a huge political mistake.
“So, young master Shen, you should withdraw your magical power! I really can’t do anything to Zhu Wenhua.”
Shen lang grinned and said,”of course, I know that. Therefore, you can just watch the show from the side.” If you don’t want to be overshadowed by Viscount Zhu Lanting, we’ll have to cooperate.”
you’re asking for a sky-high price, ” Mayor Li Fang said. and you’re paying back the money on the spot? ”
Shen lang revealed an impeccable, handsome smile.
City Lord Li Fang’s heart trembled.
Were there any male vixens in this world? There probably was! Otherwise, why would my mind be swayed?
......
At this moment, Zhu Wenhua had calmed down a little.
He quickly understood that it was impossible for Shen lang to pin the crime of rebellion on him.
Since the moment the Zhu family handed over their fief and military power, his whole family had a political pardon.
As long as he didn’t seek death, he would be fine.
Shen lang, you are indeed as cunning as a ghost. Zhu Wenhua sneered. but you’re from a lowly background, after all. You don’t understand high-level politics at all. It’s the most childish act of you to try and frame me for going against the new policy. Even if I did do something wrong, city Lord Li Fang and the other Lords would try their best to deny it and cover up for me,”
you’re just a mere Shen lang. You can’t do anything to me. You can’t even hurt me.
because my Zhu family has already stood on the king’s side. How could anything happen? ”
Shen lang, you lowly person, you know nothing about the power of politics!
Shen lang glanced at Zhu Wenhua and did not even have the intention to reply.
It was like playing chess. You had already thought of the next move, or even the next two or three moves, but the other party was still proud of this move.
idiot, you don’t know anything. You don’t know what you’re going to suffer next. Shen lang was speechless.
The way he looked at Zhu Wenhua was as if he was an idiot.
“I’m a little tired. Let’s talk when your father comes.” Shen lang waved his hand and said,”someone, give me a chair.” &Nbsp;
Instantly, two warriors from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu brought out a chair, and Shen lang lay on it comfortably.
hahaha! Zhu Wenhua laughed.”You still want my father to come see you? Who Do You Think You Are? You’re just a live-in son-in-law of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. Your status is just a little higher than that of a servant. Even if Prince Jin mucong were here, he wouldn’t have the right to make my father see him, let alone you.”
And at this moment.
The sound of horse hooves rang out on the street.
A soldierly middle-aged man brought a dozen Warriors with him as he flew over.
He was The Public Enemy of the old noble families, The Viscount of Lanshan, Zhu Lanting.
“Father, you, why are you here?” Zhu Wenhua was shocked.
City Lord Li Fang stepped forward, bowed, and cupped her hands, ” “Greetings, Lord Viscount.”
Zhu Lanting cupped his hands in a slightly arrogant manner.
Although his rank was lower than the Earl of Xuanwu, he was already standing beside the king and could be considered as a banner of the aristocrats.
Hence, it was normal for them to look down on city Lord Lanshan.
“Nephew Shen lang?” Viscount Zhu Lanting smiled warmly and said, ” your wedding was too rushed. I didn’t even have time to attend it. As neighbors for a hundred years, I’m really rude.
Then, Viscount Zhu Lanting opened his arms toward Shen lang, performing the etiquette between aristocrats. They held each other’s arms and half-hugged each other.
However ...
Shen lang lay on the recliner lazily and said, ” “Viscount Zhu Lanting, I don’t know you very well. Don’t act like we’re close.”
......
