Chapter 272: The king is taking in Lord Lang as his son-in: law and conferring the title of count Zhenyuan!
Translator: 549690339
No matter if it was Wu country or Yue country, they would not be charged for their words.
He still remembered that the Imperial Censorate official who was not afraid of death was the one who exposed the affair between Shen lang and Princess Ning Yan in public. As a result, Princess Ning Yan was placed under house arrest in zongzheng temple and had not been released until now.
This was a complete slap to the royal familyâs face.
And this Imperial Censorate official was not charged in public, but was later charged with corruption.
It was as if the Censorate was born with the power to criticize others.
If you were to be caned for insulting someone and not die or be crippled, then congratulations, youâre going to be popular and become an idol in the officialdom.
Perhaps some of these young imperial censors were feeling indignant and heartbroken over the deaths of their people.
But more people just wanted to be famous.
He wanted to stand out.
In their eyes, there was no risk at all.
Shen lang had committed the crime of murder.
Although he had made a great contribution and eliminated the main force of the SU clanâs rebel army ...
However, he was the one who led the Qiang Kingdomâs cavalry into the country. This was a grave crime. The great disaster from a hundred years ago was still vivid in his mind.
Besides, the rebellion in Tianxi province had been quelled, and it was time to kill the donkey after it had been worn out.
Shen lang, this idiot, killed the governor of Tianxi province and attacked the Imperial courtâs Army. Wasnât he seeking his own death?
Shen lang, you put your head in front of us. How can we not kill you?
Therefore, these young imperial censors rushed to the palace in the North and were determined to kill Shen lang!
However, at this moment, a group of Warriors rushed out like wolves and tigers. They held these young imperial censors down and directly pulled off their pants.
He raised the board and was about to hit.
The young imperial censor was startled, and then he shouted, â âYour Majesty, weâre pleading for the lives of the people!â
âYour Majesty, you canât trust a cunning man!â
âMy fellow colleagues, weâve studied for ten years for this day.â
we would rather die than to kill the traitor, Shen lang.
âFor the peace of the world, for the Justice of the people, cry, cry, cry, cryâ
This group of imperial censors thought that it was just a beating and a flogging, so they took the opportunity to shout slogans wildly.
However, he didnât expect that when the board came down, something was completely wrong.
âKa-Chak, ka-Chak!â
The staff came down.
His entire pelvis was instantly crushed and fractured.
The second strike broke his thigh bone.
After the third strike, his lumbar spine was broken, and he couldnât feel anything below his waist.
This group of young imperial censors couldnât help but be scared out of their wits.
âYour Majesty, please spare me!â
âYour Majesty, please spare me! Please spare me!â
âYour Majesty, we were wrong.â
The head eunuch Li Xun was very cold as he flipped his palm down.
A few Warriors immediately swung their wooden staffs at the young imperial censors âheads.
He was instantly killed!
The entire place was silent!
Li Jing waved her hand, and the bodies of the four young imperial censors were dragged out like dead dogs.
..................
âYour Majesty, heâs dead!â
âYes.â Ning yuanxian was carefully eating a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
After these four young imperial censors had been killed, he was not as angry as before.
His entire person also seemed to have calmed down.
As a King, he had seen too many of such things.
The entire imperial court, and even the entire world, was like this.
Most of them were idiots who were blinded by greed.
It was just that her acting skills were too poor, which made people furious.
âShen lang, that bastard, deserved to be beaten up.â The king, ning yuanxian, said, â âHeâs just too arrogant. Whatâs that word he used? To describe an idiot?â
Li Jing waved her hand.
The scribe left the room, because what happened next was a private conversation, not a public one.
âThat word is stupid,â Li Jing said.
âYes, thatâs the word.â The monarch said, â Shen lang is too arrogant. Liang Wannian is an idiot. He deserves to die. Canât you just bear with it? â Why did he kill her in public? And he even killed Liang Wannianâs useless Army of several thousand. When others framed him, he didnât even bother to argue and killed them directly. He even acted as if what could he do even if he did it? This bastard is too arrogant.â
Li Xun laughed. but this has also solved one of His Majestyâs problems. His Majesty wonât have to worry about how to kill Liang Wannian anymore.
Ning yuanxian laughed coldly,âheâs a headache?â Iâll kill that dog Liang Wannian with my eyes closed.â
Then, ning yuanxian ate a few more tangyuans.
great, I originally wanted to reward this bastard, but thereâs no need for that. When he comes back, heâll be whipped a few times. Without my decree, he killed a governor of a border. Itâs a great sin. âGo and give him a new decree,â ning yuanxian said.âJust say that he killed Liang Wannian under my orders.â
âYes,â Li Sun bowed.
but this bastard probably wonât be grateful to me, â ning yuanxian said. he probably doesnât want any reward at all.
it should be, â Li Jing said. he said it very clearly. He went to Tianxi province for revenge and to destroy the SU clan. He didnât go there to make a contribution.
âSon of a b * tch, what a b * stard.â Ning yuanxian put the bowl of tangyuans on the table and said, â he doesnât care about my reward at all. Heâs so powerful, so capable!
Speaking of this, ning yuanxian could not help but get angry.
For a genius like Shen lang, what drove him was revenge. Fame and fortune did not attract him at all. He was happy being the live-in son-in-law of the Marquis of Xuanwu and did not seem to be motivated at all.
âYour Majesty, there are still rumors going around saying that su Nan had monopolized the Foreign Affairs of the Qiang country before he rebelled,â Li Jing said. Now, not only has Shen lang monopolized the diplomatic affairs of the Qiang country, but the entire Army of the Qiang country has to listen to his orders. Therefore, Iâm afraid his ambition is even greater.â
hahaha! ning yuanxian laughed as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.
Such words were simply not worth refuting.
itâs good that this bastard is ambitious. Iâm afraid of other peopleâs ambitions, but Iâm resentful for this bastardâs failure. Ning yuanxian said, â order this bastard to come back as soon as possible. Donât provoke Zheng tuo first. This is not Liang Wannian. Zheng tuo has already taken over the Zhenyuan Marquisâs residence. He has 20000 troops in his hands. It will be very difficult to deal with them. I will slowly plan out the situation.
the urgent matter at hand is to pacify Tianxi province and make Chu State lose all hope. Then, we will negotiate with Wu State.
get Shen lang back quickly. Donât let him suffer.
âThen what about his reputation?â Li Jing asked.
Now, Shen Langâs reputation could be said to be pointed at by thousands of people, and countless people wanted to kill him.
âDoes this bastard care about his own reputation?â ning yuanxian asked.
Li Jing nodded at this.
He was a scumbag who wanted to go to a brothel in secret, but he had no guts. Many people thought that he was not good in bed. Why would he care about his reputation?
It wonât!
His skin was already thicker than the city walls.
âLi Sun, what do you think about Ning Yan marrying Shen lang after the divorce?â ning yuanxian suddenly asked.
The head eunuch, Li Jing, lowered her head and said, â âThis servant doesnât dare to say.â
Ning yuanxian waved his hand and said,âforget it, forget it. Letâs not talk about this.â Order that bastard Shen lang to come back quickly and leave Zheng tuo to me. â
âYes!â Li Jing said.
At this moment, a warrior of the black water tower rushed in.
âYour Majesty, eldest Princess ning Jie has sent a secret letter!â
The monarch was stunned. Why was there another secret document? And there were two of them.
He opened the first letter.
The monarch couldnât help but be shocked as he looked at the contents in disbelief.
On the second day after the SU clanâs main force was defeated, su Nan led the entire clan to escape to the Western Region. Twenty-five hours later, Shen lang led the Qiang Kingdomâs cavalry to chase after them, but they could no longer catch up.
However, Shen lang made use of su Nanâs greed and used the gold from the kingâs palace as bait. Su Nan was tricked.
The entire su clan had been killed by Shen lang, and their heads had been sent over.
The SU clan was exterminated!
He watched it over and over again.
The monarch was truly shocked.
Su Nan had escaped. Of course, he felt regretful.
Moreover, he was well aware of su Nanâs abilities. If he was allowed to rise in the Western Region, he would cause a lot of trouble in the future.
But the kingdoms of the Western regions were completely beyond their reach.
He did not expect the entire su clan to be killed by Shen lang.
It was hard for the monarch to imagine what the final battle between Shen lang and su Nan would be like.
However, it would definitely be extremely exciting.
All this time, bad news came one after another.
Good news was hard to come by in succession.
He did not expect to receive two pieces of great news in a row in just a few days.
Shen lang, this little rascal.
It was really powerful, so powerful that it was boundless.
Then, ning yuanxian opened another secret document.
This time, he was so scared that he trembled again.
Shen lang led 2000 Qiang cavalrymen to attack Marquis Zhenyuan and Zheng tuo.
In an instant, ning yuanxianâs scalp went numb.
Was this little rascal crazy?
Marquis Zhenyuanâs mansion was impregnable.
Zheng tuo had a total of 20 thousand troops inside.
Zheng tuo wasnât a good-for-nothing like Liang Yongnian. His current status was indeed inseparable from ning yuanxianâs promotion, but it was also his knife and spear that had earned him his position.
Moreover, the Army under his command was the true elite of the Western Army, and it could not be mentioned in the same breath as Liang Yongnianâs useless Army.
The Marquis Zhenyuanâs mansion was guarded by Zheng tuo. Not to mention two thousand people, even twenty thousand, fifty thousand, or even eighty thousand people would not be able to take it down.
The Marquis Zhenyuanâs castle was one of the most difficult castles to attack in the world.
No matter how one looked at it, Shen lang was seeking his own death by attacking with 2000 people.
This bastard was crazy.
This bastard was really useful, but Yingying couldnât control him at all.
âThis little bastard, canât you just let me rest for a few days? Iâve already said that Iâll deal with Zheng tuo.â Ning yuanxian said angrily.
Li Sun couldnât help but glance at him, then said, â âYour Majesty, perhaps young master Chen also wants to settle the chaos in Tianxi province once and for all. After su Nanâs Army was destroyed, Zheng tuo became the only unstable factor.â
âItâs too risky, too risky,â ning yuanxian said while trembling. He had taken the risk because he was forced to, but now that the situation had been decided, why did he still take such a big risk? Zheng tuo will really kill him, believe me, Zheng tuo is ruthless, he will definitely take the chance to kill him!â
Li Jing said, â Your Majesty, youâre being overly concerned. Su Nan was so powerful but he could not kill young master Shen. No matter how powerful Zheng tuo is, he canât be compared to su Nan.
Ning yuanxianâs body trembled with anger.
The overall situation had clearly been set, but in the end, there were unexpected side effects.
âSend a decree to Zheng tuo as soon as possible, and confer him the title of count Zhenyuan.â calm him down first, â ning yuanxian said. then, get that little bastard Shen lang to come back. We donât have to take any more risks with such a good situation.
Li Sun trembled.
Uncle Zhenyuan, this would give Zheng tuo countless fantasies.
Zheng tuo was originally a noble of the new style. He didnât have a decent family fief or a decent private army.
As for count Zhenyuan, he was once su Nanâs title, Marquis Zhenyuan.
Zheng tuo would think, what did the king mean by this?
Are you trying to make me replace you and give me the SU clanâs territory?
The key was that Zheng tuo was extremely eager for it.
Even if he knew that ning yuanxian had other intentions, he would still take the bait, because this was the result he wanted the most.
âYour Majesty, itâll take at least five days for the decree to reach the Dukeâs residence,â Li Sun said in a low voice.âIt might be too late by then.â Young master Shen is very powerful, so I donât think he will fight an unprepared battle.â
âThis bastard!â Ning yuanxian cursed angrily,âhow much of a surprise can he give me in a quarter of an hour, and how much of a shock can he give me in the next?â Why did he have to take risks in such a good situation? Did he really have to use 2000 people to attack the Marquis Zhenyuanâs residence? what if he lost? Iâm dead, Zhenzhen!â
âQuickly pass the decree, pass the decree.â
With a wave of his brush, ning yuanxian drafted the decree to confer Zheng tuo the title of count Zhenyuan.
Then, he wrote a decree for Shen lang. There were only three simple words: Get back here!
hurry, send it to the Marquis Zhenyuanâs mansion as fast as possible. Send it within five days. If you are late by two hours, I will take your heads!
âYes,â the warrior of the black water unit kowtowed.
Li Shen sealed the two secret edicts as fast as she could, stamped them with wax seals, and then handed them to the Warriors of the Blackwater tower.
The warrior of the black water tower rushed out.
Next, the entire Blackwater station would use all their manpower and force to send the decree as quickly as possible.
Ning yuanxian was furious. He smashed the unfinished glutinous rice ball on the ground and stepped on it a few times.
when Shen lang is back, lock him up so that he wonât cause any trouble!
âWhere did he get his trouble-making skills from? Who would believe that heâs the son of a farmer?â
âZheng tuo deserves to die, he deserves to die, he deserves to die!â
Li Sun stepped forward and silently cleaned up the broken bowl!
He sighed in his heart.
He knew his masterâs character the best.
Although he was extremely loyal, to be honest, this Emperor was really mean and ungrateful. Not to mention others, he didnât even care about his own children.
The only people that this King truly loved were concubine Bian, the Crown Prince, the third Prince, Princess Ning Han, and a few others.
It was also because of the guilt in Princess ning Mengâs heart that she felt a little more pity for her.
He was truly concerned about Shen lang now.
Otherwise, with his personality, why would he give in to Zheng tuo?
He wanted to tear Zheng tuo into pieces, but for Shen lang, he gritted his teeth and gave Zheng tuo the title of uncle Zhenyuan. He wanted to stabilize Zheng tuo and prevent him from killing Shen lang.
It was really fate between people.
If she liked him, she liked him a lot. If she hated him, she hated him a lot.
Zhang Ji had made such a great contribution, and the king was very touched. However, after the battle at white cloud County city, the kingâs concern for Zhang Ji had suddenly faded.
Even though the Emperor was still concerned about Zhang Ji, Li Sun could still feel the change in the emperorâs mind.
Li Sun also understood.
His Majesty was really confused by his concern.
Master Shen was such a cunning person. If he wasnât confident, why would he fight Zheng tuo?
It sounded ridiculous.
Shen lang had 2000 men and 20000 men to attack Zheng tuo. Furthermore, he had an indestructible Marquis Zhenyuanâs residence.
However, a wicked man like young master Shen, what else could he not do?
