Lord Count's eyes became gentle, "Lang'Er, you can't do it. Times have changed. Under the new policy, we, the old aristocrats, are in a precarious situation. We are afraid of being caught if we make a mistake. In the past three years, three aristocrats have lost their fiefs, titles, and even one of them lost his life. "
Lord Count's face was full of grief.
He just wanted to protect the foundation of his ancestors, what was wrong with that?
He continued, "If it were in the past, I could have easily taken care of people like Tian Heng. But now, even I can't get rid of him, let alone you. After all, he is an official of the imperial court. Aristocrats are not allowed to interfere with local affairs. If they break the rules, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
At this time, Shen Lang deeply felt the helplessness in Lord Count's heart.
Whether this new policy was good or bad for the State of Yue, at least it was against the interests of Shen Lang.
Lord Count said in a serious tone, "Lang'Er, I promise you, I will take down Tian Heng in half a year at most, and I will seek justice for you!"
With the power in Lord Count's hands, it was not difficult to kill Tian Heng.
The difficult part was how to comply with the laws of the country and how not to be caught red-handed. That was extremely difficult.
However, the Count still agreed to Shen Lang's request.
Shen Lang's expression was serious, "Father-in-law, Tian Heng, the Xu family, and the Lin family have a grudge against me. I must take revenge myself. Otherwise, I won't be able to lift my head for the rest of my life. By marrying into the Count's household, these three families won't dare to harm a single hair on my head. This is already a huge advantage. "
Shen Lang paused for a moment, then continued, "I haven't made any contributions to the Count House, so I don't have the right to waste any resources of the Count House, especially the political resources. If I need you to avenge me, then I don't deserve to be the husband of Mulan. I should just go home and eat my parents' food. "
Hearing this, the Count was pleased.
He felt that Shen Lang had finally opened his heart to him for the first time.
"I appreciate your thoughts." Lord Count said, "But you really can't beat them. Kid, Xuanwu City is no longer our territory. It belongs to the imperial court. It belongs to Liu Wuyan and Zhang Jin. Both of them are the backers of Tian Heng. You can't defeat him. "
Shen Lang: "Would they dare to kill me? You dare to hit me? "
"Who dares?" The Count said coldly, "We can't cause any trouble now, but we still have two to three thousand soldiers. If anyone dares to harm the people of my Count House, then they will be annihilated by my family's army. "
Shen Lang bowed and saluted, "Father-in-law, I promise you here that I will definitely make Tian Heng break his own arms and legs in a legal situation. Moreover, I will not leave behind any evidence that can be used against him. Please believe me."
The Count said, "What's your plan?"
"I can't say it." Shen Lang said, "Some things can only be done."
In fact, Shen Lang didn't dare to say it. He was afraid that his father-in-law would beat him up.
The Count said, "Do you know what will happen if you lose?"
Shen Lang said, "My reputation will be ruined. I will be laughed at every step I take in Xuanwu City."
The Count hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "You are a man with a mind. If you want to go, I can't stop you."
Shen Lang said, "Thank you, father-in-law."
The Count said, "Remember, don't violate the law. Don't leave any evidence behind. Don't worry about winning or losing. It doesn't matter if you lose once. It doesn't matter if your reputation is ruined. "
Shen Lang bowed again and said, "I will listen to father-in-law's words. Also … I will win. Even if Tian Heng has the backing of the City Lord's Mansion and the Governor's Mansion, I will definitely make him suffer a crushing defeat this time. "
"I'm going." Shen Lang said.
When the sun rose, he left the Count House in a carriage and went to Xuanwu City.
…
What should he do to deal with people like Tian Heng? What strategy?
To be honest, it was very difficult!
The earl had said that it was difficult to defeat Tian Heng in accordance with the law of the country and without leaving any evidence.
Yes, Tian Heng had committed a lot of crimes. God knows how many lives he had taken. These crimes were enough to send him to the guillotine.
However, the Count House couldn't interfere with local affairs.
Arresting Tian Heng and putting Tian Heng on trial were the powers of the mayor of Xuanwu City.
Unless Tian Heng committed a crime in Xuan Wu Mansion, it would be easy to take him down.
However, people weren't that stupid.
That's why the Count said that Shen Lang couldn't win against Tian Heng because he had the support of the mayor of Xuanwu City and Zhang Jin.
Shen Lang had thought of many methods and stratagems that were extremely mysterious and complicated. There were even some stratagems that looked as gorgeous as Zhuge Liang from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, giving off the feeling that his intelligence was close to that of a demon.
However, all of them were useless.
The more complicated the strategy, the higher the chance of failure.
What was the best method to use?
Simple and crude was the best!
And the method that Shen Lang was going to use to deal with Tian Heng was simple and crude enough, even shameless!
…
Tian Heng ran a lot of businesses, including gambling houses, brothels, lending, and so on.
Which one was the most profitable?
Of course, it was the gambling house. It was a business that made money every day, accounting for more than 60% of his income.
His luxurious life and his hundreds of brothers, to a certain extent, depended on the income of the gambling house.
In the entire Xuanwu City, Tian Heng had opened five gambling houses, which was a complete monopoly.
Others wanted to open a gambling house? Before Tian Heng's brothers came to visit, the mayor's people came to seize it.
The Riches Square was the name of Tian Heng's gambling house.
It was magnificently decorated, with a total of three floors. Inside, there was food, drinks, entertainment, and everything else.
Even the pawnshop and brothel were opened in the gambling house.
Therefore, Shen Lang's way to deal with Tian Heng was very simple, which was to go to his gambling house to win money. Keep winning, keep winning, and keep winning!
Win far beyond Tian Heng's bottom line, beyond the endurance of his backer.
For a person like Tian Heng, what was the most important?
Loyalty?!
Don't joke, of course it was money!
Only money could let him bribe the mayor's office and the guards.
If you have money, you have a backer. If you don't have money, you don't have a backer.
Shen Lang was sure that the mayor of Xuanwu and even the governor of Nujiang took money from Tian Heng's gambling house.
Once Shen Lang won more than the psychological defense of these big shots, everything would be beyond Tian Heng's control.
If it was before, before Shen Lang won 100 gold coins, his hands and feet would be broken, and he would be thrown into the river to drown.
But now, he had the identity of the son-in-law of the Count House to protect him. It was not a problem to win as much money as he wanted in Xuanwu City.
The only thing he was worried about was whether he would be beaten by his father-in-law.
Of course, what Shen Lang had to do was not only to win money. The performance after winning was more important. He had to put everyone in it.
…
The Count House sent a total of four warriors to protect Shen Lang.
He was dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, a jade crown on his head, and sat in a gorgeous carriage. As soon as he entered the city, he became the focus of everyone.
Countless people were pointing at him and whispering.
In Xuanwu City, Shen Lang was already a legendary figure. Even if he was notorious, he was still a legendary figure.
An ignorant and incompetent trash first became the son-in-law of the wealthy Xu family. After he was kicked out, he became the son-in-law of the Count House in less than three days?
Wasn't he awesome?
He had reached the sky in a single bound!
So when they saw Shen Lang, who was dressed in a luxurious manner, countless people were so jealous that they wanted to vomit blood. They turned around and spat!
"This trash is really arrogant. He just became the son-in-law of the Count House, and he swaggered around like this."
"Yeah, yeah. Look at his clothes. It's enough for my family to eat for three years."
"Shameless to the extreme, shameless to the extreme. He doesn't study hard, nor does he farm. He just wants to live off a woman. The Count House is really blind. He chose this trash to be his son-in-law. "
"You see, he will be kicked out of the Count House in half a month at most. He is too arrogant!"
Hearing these words, Shen Lang was completely indifferent. He even changed to a more comfortable position in the carriage.
…
In front of the Riches House, Shen Lang got out of the carriage and walked into the gambling house.
The four warriors of the Count House behind him couldn't help but change their expressions.
The son-in-law is going to gamble?
How, how could this be?
The Count House was very strict. Even a playboy like the heir of a rich family didn't dare to step into the gambling house. Otherwise, the Count House would break his legs.
Who would enter the gambling house?
Prodigal son!
As for you, Shen Lang, you are merely the son-in-law of the Earl's Mansion. You should be cautious and behave yourself, but in the end, not only did you wear embroidered clothes and swagger through the streets, you even openly entered a casino.
However, the four warriors of the Count House only had the power to protect Shen Lang. They didn't have the power to advise him.
Most importantly, they didn't want to advise him.
How could a trash like Shen Lang be a good match for Miss Mulan?
If he wants to die, then let him be!
It's best if he loses badly, then the Count House will break his legs and kick him out of the house.
In the eyes of these warriors, only Jin Shiying House is the best husband for Miss Mulan.
Because Jin Shiying House is their idol and the adopted son of the Count House.
…
At this time, Tian Shijiu, one of the adopted sons of Tian Heng House, was watching the gambling house of the Riches House.
Seeing Shen Lang come in, Tian Shijiu was stunned at first, then he was ecstatic!
What is a gambling house?
It's a devil's den!
Shen Lang actually took the initiative to step into the Black Cloth Gang's devil's den. Isn't this courting death?
"Aiyo, isn't this the Count House's son-in-law Shen? Welcome, welcome! "Tian Shijiu said," Servants, serve tea. Serve good tea. "
Very quickly, the servant brought a pot of the best tea.
Shen Lang sat down and slowly tasted the tea.
"Son-in-law Shen, are you here to take a look or to play a few rounds?" Tian Shijiu asked.
Shen Lang said, "Since I'm here, of course, I want to play a few rounds."
"Welcome, welcome!" Tian Shijiu was very excited.
His adoptive father, Tian Heng, and Shen Lang had already become enemies. He was worried that he couldn't find a way to kill Shen Lang. The other party is the son-in-law of the Count House. Who would dare to touch him?
He didn't expect that Shen Lang would take the initiative to send himself to death!
Let him lose tens of thousands of gold coins and then hand over the IOU to the Count House. Shen Lang will be completely finished. If it's light, he will be kicked out of the Count House. If it's heavy, he will be kicked out of the Count House with his legs broken.
As for the possibility of Shen Lang winning?!
Tian Shijiu never thought of this possibility.
