Chapitre 200: Chapter 200
The world was shocked when Zhang Chong was imprisoned!
After a short period of consternation, countless impeachment memorials flew toward the palace like snowflakes.
For a time, Zhang Chong changed from a minister of the country to a villain.
More and more crimes were piled on his head, which were simply too numerous to list.
And the most frightened were the officials of Nujiang County, especially those who attended Zhang Chong's farewell banquet.
They were in a constant state of anxiety.
Those who had once called Zhang Chong 'Lord' over and over again were completely in a daze, wishing that they could just slit their own throats and commit suicide so that they wouldn't have to suffer this boundless fear.
Every day, there were rumors.
It was said that Zhang Chong was going to be beheaded.
It was also said that Zhang Chong committed suicide in prison.
Some people even said that Zhang Chong provided a long list of all the officials of his corruption group.
Soon, the Black Water Group would come to arrest him.
Suddenly, these officials were really scared.
There was a scribe who served Zhang Chong. He couldn't bear the huge pressure and directly hanged himself.
Because he was the first to start calling him lord.
The death of this scribe was like a catalyst, which made the officials of Nujiang County report and expose Zhang Chong's crimes one after another.
Those who were qualified to submit memorials did so, and those who were not qualified to submit memorials submitted the report to the Imperial Censorate.
At this time, people finally saw what it meant to be pushed when a wall was down, and stepped on when a person was down.
The City Lord of Xuanwu, Liu Wuyan, also wrote a memorial to report Zhang Chong, but he hesitated for a long time and did not submit it.
It was not because he was particularly smart, nor was it because he was particularly loyal to Zhang Chong.
It was because he was deeply involved in the struggle between the Kim family and Zhang Chong, so he could see it a little more clearly.
There were more and more memorials impeaching Zhang Chong in the country. In the end, it was simply to the point where the people's anger could not be appeased without killing him.
However, these memorials always sank into the sea.
Until one day, an official's impeachment memorial broke the situation.
A registrar of Nujiang Taishou Prefecture wrote a letter in blood.
He bit his finger and wrote this impeachment memorial.
It was truly touching. Not only did he expose Zhang Chong's hideous crimes, he also reflected on why he didn't expose it earlier. Instead, he pretended to be polite and courteous, and actually became an accomplice of Zhang Chong's exploitation of the common people.
Not only that, but he also took the initiative to hand over the 235 gold coins.
At the end of the memorial, it even begged the Monarch to sentence Zhang Chong in a just and proper manner, so as to uphold justice for the hundreds of thousands of people in Nujiang County.
Of course, these hundreds of thousands of Nujiang County citizens were extremely dumbfounded.
What? Is this any of our business?
As soon as this memorial was presented, many officials gasped in surprise.
Sure enough, there are outstanding people all the time. You really know how to act.
Then, everyone quietly waited for the result, to see whether this excellent registrar could succeed in his speculation.
In the end, he succeeded.
The Monarch reacted.
You are a good registrar. Not only did you expose Zhang Chong, but you also exposed yourself and took the initiative to hand over the embezzled money.
Since you have already confessed, how can I disappoint your good intentions?
A few days later, the Black Water Platform's knights entered Nujiang County and captured this excellent registrar.
Less than three days after entering the Supreme Court's prison, this excellent registrar committed suicide.
He cut his wrists and committed suicide.
The amount of blood that flowed was enough to write millions of words in blood.
As a result, all the officials in the world were jittery.
All the impeachment memorials against Zhang Chong stopped.
It was as if nothing had happened, as if this person had never existed.
…
That excellent registrar must have been very desperate before he died.
However, Master Lang was also very desperate.
He didn't want to live anymore and felt that life was meaningless.
The first three minutes was still acceptable.
But the second, third, fourth, fifth …
It was all like this!
Mulan found all kinds of reasons for him.
For example, the weather was too cold, too hot.
The bed was too soft, the outside was too noisy, the outside was too quiet.
Even the fengshui of this courtyard was not good.
He also tried all kinds of methods, took countless tonics, and practiced all kinds of martial arts many times.
None of them worked!
In the end, Shen Lang simply didn't dare to touch Mulan.
There was no smile on his face at all.
This kind of thing should have instantly spread throughout the entire courtyard, the entire Count House, and even the entire Xuanwu City.
However, it didn't.
All the maidservants in the courtyard knew, but no one outside the courtyard knew.
No one said it out.
Mulan was very distressed and kept comforting Shen Lang. That kind of thing didn't matter at all. She didn't like it at all.
She liked Shen Lang as a person, not in that aspect.
Besides, it was good to be able to have children. Why did he need to be so strong?
Of course, this couldn't comfort Shen Lang at all.
He was almost depressed. He felt that his whole life was gray.
Sigh! Why did I transmigrate?
If a man can't do that, what fun is there in life?
Mulan was really distressed.
One day, her mother-in-law, Su Peipei, called Mulan over and whispered a few words to her.
That night, Xiao Bing crawled into Shen Lang's bed naked.
Suddenly …
Master Lang displayed his prowess and killed Lil Bing, causing her to be utterly defeated.
Thanks to the recent tonics and crazy training, Master Lang's combat power was very strong.
That night, Shen Lang rushed to Mulan and said excitedly, "Wife, look, look, this is not my problem at all. It's your problem. Look at me, I'm very awesome when it comes to Xiao Bing."
Mulan felt sour and jealous, but she forced a smile and said, "Yes, it's all my problem. Husband is very powerful."
Thus, Shen Lang's illness of being a bachelor was cured without treatment.
From then on, he lived a shameless and happy life.
It was harmonious and happy.
But for some reason, he actually lost weight.
In order to restrain his mischief, Mulan often went out to busy with military affairs. She also sent Xiao Bing out to do all kinds of things, just to prevent Shen Lang from indulging himself like this.
...
Time flowed like water, the years flew by.
The Monarch's decree regarding Raging Tide City still hadn't come down. It was as if they had completely forgotten about this matter.
One day, Xuanwu and Jin Zhuo returned from Raging Tide City and met with Shen Lang alone. They told him a very important matter.
"Lang'er, why don't we hold a wedding for you and Mulan?"
Shen Lang was massaging the back of his waist when he heard this. He said, "Hold a wedding ceremony and have another wedding night? No, no! "
When the father-in-law heard this, he immediately felt that it was unbearable.
After all, he was an experienced person and understood Shen Lang's words.
Earl Jin Zhuo said, "It's like this. After all, the reputation of a son-in-law isn't good. So I want to change it a little. Let Mulan marry into your Shen family. Then, we'll invite the guests and get married at your house."
Xuanwu of course had good intentions.
Even if Shen Lang didn't mind, he was worried that Shen Lang would.
"No, no." Shen Lang said, "Father-in-law, I'm very happy being a son-in-law. Please don't make me a formal son-in-law."
Ugh!
Count Xuanwu was speechless.
What, what was wrong with him?
In some ancient dynasties in China, marrying into the family was a crime. They were even banished to the army.
Although there was no such rule in the Great Yan Dynasty, and son-in-law could also take the imperial examinations.
But before they could become a Jinshi, the family of the woman would be very tactful and dissolve this unequal marriage, officially marrying the daughter into the man's family.
After all, son-in-law was still looked down upon. If he really became a Jinshi, the imperial court would also lose face.
Shen Lang said, "First, I don't want to be an official. This status of son-in-law is my protective shell. Second, when any enemy hears of my status, they will inevitably look down on me. The more they look down on me, the better. "
This was called a reason?
Count Xuanwu tried to persuade Shen Lang again and again, but he was unwilling to get rid of this status.
He had no choice but to personally go to Shen Lang's house and ask for forgiveness from his parents.
Then, he rushed back to Nu Tiao City again.
Because Nu Tiao City was the core of the Kim family's lifeline.
After Jin Zhuo Count took over the city, he was very busy.
Shen Lang even suspected that his father-in-law came back this time not to talk about getting rid of the son-in-law, but to solve his personal problems.
It was very suspicious.
Because the next morning, he woke up late.
Of course, his mother-in-law woke up even later, but she did this every day.
… …
The days passed one after the other.
The Kim family began a large-scale migration of commoners, moving the people from their fiefdom to Leizhou Island.
Because the taxes of the Xuan Wu Mansion were too low, and Count Jin Zhuo loved the people like his own children, many refugees entered the Kim family's fief every year.
This fief of more than a thousand square kilometers had a total of 100,000 citizens. It could be said to be overcrowded.
Fortunately, they were growing mulberry trees and raising silkworms to make money. If they were just growing grain, the fief wouldn't be able to feed 100,000 people.
Therefore, they moved 20,000 people to Leizhou Island.
That island was a full 5,000 square kilometers, and the arable land was more than twice the original fief.
When Qiu Tianwei had ruled Leizhou Island, this large piece of land had been practically abandoned.
Pirates didn't know how to farm, and they didn't like it.
But 20,000 people going to Leizhou Island to cultivate was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.
At this time, the Heavenly Association's usefulness showed itself. They brought in a steady stream of war refugees from all over the place, becoming the new citizens of the Kim family.
This kind of migration required money, and the amount was astronomical.
After all, you couldn't just let these people move their entire family to Leizhou Island just for show.
Therefore, they had to pay for settling down and build houses. Tens of thousands of people had to migrate, and they had to pay hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
This money was borrowed by the Heavenly Association, and there was no interest and no deadline for repayment.
Huang Tong was originally a fat man, but during this period of running around, he had become a skinny man.
Shen Lang had originally thought that he would be more handsome after losing weight.
He hadn't expected that he would actually be uglier.
Sigh!
Huang Tong's fantasy was shattered.
He had always thought that he wasn't handsome because he was too fat, but it turned out that wasn't the case.
In short, the construction of Leizhou Island and Raging Tides was in full swing.
It would probably take about two to three years to see results.
After the Xuan Wu Mansion obtained Raging Tides, not only did they not make a fortune, but they instead owed a debt of nearly two million gold coins.
Some people said that after taking down Qiu Tianwei's mansion, did you not have money?
Weren't pirates the wealthiest?
Didn't he have a treasury?
He did!
After taking down Raging Tides, the first thing Shen Lang did was to open the treasury.
In the end, there was … 300,000 gold coins.
Shen Lang knew that before the war, Qiu Tianwei had thrown out a large sum of gold coins as a starting fee.
But a dignified pirate king shouldn't only have this little money.
Shen Lang felt that Qiu Tianwei definitely had other treasure vaults.
In the end, An Zaitian told him that there wasn't!
Qiu Tianwei really only had this much money.
Because he had to support more than 10,000 pirates, and this castle was simply a bottomless pit. All the money he had gotten over the years had been invested in this castle.
Shen Lang was puzzled. Raging Tides was full of trade, and there was money everywhere. He would make a fortune by collecting taxes.
In the end, after investigating, he found out.
All the business in Raging Tides, Qiu Tianwei had a share, but he had no control.
All the control was in the hands of the Yin Yuan Association.
Wangya Island was completely deserted.
Because the entire mine was filled with seawater and countless corpses.
After more than half a month of cleaning, all the corpses were fished out, and then a big pit was dug and buried.
But the seawater in the big pit couldn't be discharged, so it could only wait to evaporate and dry up. Who knew how long that would take.
But fortunately, they had already obtained Jinshan Island.
The iron ore there was of a much higher grade, and all the smelting workshops in Xuan Wu Mansion had been moved there.
… …
Xu Qianqian went home and began the difficult journey of starting a new business.
It could be said that she had nothing now.
No money, no workshops, and even all the shops had been forcibly sold to pay off the debts.
Even most of the Xu family's mansion had been burned down, and all the servants had run away.
So, she came to Xuan Wu Mansion again.
However, the person she wanted to meet was not Shen Lang, but Jin Mulan.
The purpose was simple, to borrow money!
To be honest, Xuan Wu Mansion was now poorer than her.
She had no money at all.
But Xuan Wu Mansion was in debt of nearly two million gold coins.
Of course, the mirrors of Tiandao had already started to be sold.
It was just that it was still in the stage of promotion. Every mirror was a super luxury and was used for auction.
In order to show off, the price was simply raised to the sky.
But no matter how much money they made, the Kim family only had the money to sell the glass.
It was actually a lot of money, but there were more places to spend money. Whether it was training soldiers, maintaining the route, or immigration, it was a bottomless pit.
But Jin Mulan still lent the money to Xu Qianqian.
Fifty thousand gold coins!
… …
The decree of the Monarch still hadn't come, and Zhang Chong was still in the Supreme Court's prison.
Raging Tide City seemed to have been forgotten by the Monarch.
But if his decree didn't come, the Kim family couldn't legitimately rule Raging Tide City.
All that was left was this last shiver.
Even a vengeful person like Xuanwu couldn't help but go home to ask Shen Lang again.
The envoys of the Wu State had already come in more than ten waves.
Every time he called out a price, it would be higher than the last.
"Their latest offer is to send troops to help us eliminate Chou Hao and take over the Leizhou Islands for us." Xuanwu said, "The condition is that we lead the Leizhou Islands to rebel against the State of Yue, and the Monarch of the Wu State agrees to confer me the title of Marquis Xuanwu."
Xuanwu didn't mean to rebel against the State of Yue when he said this.
He just asked Shen Lang if he should leak this news.
Should he leak that the Kim family was negotiating with the State of Wu to make Ning Yuanxian nervous?
"No, don't." Shen Lang said, "This is more or less the last resort. Unless we have no other choice, we can't use it."
Once the Xuan Wu Mansion leaked this news, it would be suspected of treason.
Jin Zhuo said, "What does the Monarch mean? This has been dragging on for almost two months. "
Shen Lang said, "First, he is waiting for the war situation in the South Kingdom. Second, he is waiting for our reaction. "
… …
Two days later!
Shocking news came from the capital that had been silent for a long time.
After two months of trial, the original Jin Hai Count House was convicted of treason.
The Tang family had more than 700 people, of which 358 were beheaded in public, and 385 were sent to be slaves.
The original Jin Hai count, Tang Lun, was chopped in half!
The capital's execution ground, blood flowed like a river, heads rolling.
The commoners watching the execution were excited at first, but later they vomited and had nightmares at night.
The Monarch's butcher's knife killed everyone until they lost their courage.
After that!
Finally, an imperial decree came to the Xuan Wu Mansion.
But it wasn't an imperial decree conferring the title of Marquis Xuanwu, nor was it an imperial decree conferring Nu Tiao City to the Kim family.
"The Leizhou Archipelago will be divided into Nu Jiang Prefecture, Nu Tiao City and Sky Wind City will be established, and Jin Shiying will be conferred the title of Nu Tiao City Lord!"
None of the previous imperial decrees that the Monarch gave to the Xuan Wu Mansion included the word 'Emperor'.
This time, the imperial decree conferring Jin Shiying instead included the word 'Emperor'.
There was also an imperial decree sent to Sky Wind Island to confer the title of Sky Wind City Lord.
This imperial decree made Xuanwu and Jin Zhuo dumbfounded.
Then he was furious!
Monarch, what is the meaning of this?
Jin Shiying is clearly my retainer, and you actually overstepped your authority and conferred him the title of Nu Tiao City Lord?
Isn't this a plot to sow discord?
After receiving this imperial decree, Jin Shiying hurriedly returned to the Xuan Wu Mansion and swore to the heavens that he would not accept the imperial decree and would not assume the position of Nu Tiao City Lord. He could commit suicide.
Of course, Xuanwu would not let Jin Shiying commit suicide.
There were two paths in front of him.
Obey the imperial decree or defy it!
In the end, Xuanwu chose to accept the imperial decree.
Because Shenlang nodded his head.
Thus, Nu Tiao City and Sky Wind City officially became the territory of the State of Yue and became two cities under the jurisdiction of Nujiang County.
Jin Shiying was directly promoted from the Count House's private army to the Nu Tiao City Lord.
That night, Jin Shiying knelt in front of Shenlang.
"I, Jin Shiying, am an orphan. I grew up in the Kim family and have completely regarded Xuanwu as my father."
"I am very in love with Mulan, so much so that I haven't gotten married yet."
"I am also unreconciled to the fact that son-in-law married Miss Mulan, and I even complain in my heart."
"But my loyalty to the Kim family can be proven by the heavens and earth!"
"From today onwards, I will follow son-in-law's lead. Xuanwu is my lord, and you and Jin Mucong are my young masters. "
"Jin Shiying greets young master."
"In the future, no matter what orders young master has, Jin Shiying will go through fire and water. Even if I die, I won't frown."
"If I break this promise, I will be like this."
Jin Shiying suddenly broke the sword in her hand, and blood immediately gushed out of her palm.
… …
After the Xuan Wu Mansion accepted the imperial decree and made Jin Shiying the Nu Tiao City Lord, they quietly waited for the Monarch's reaction.
Now, the Nu Tiao City should be conferred to the Kim family.
Now, it should be promoted to the Jin Zhuo Count.
This last shiver should be completed!
Of course, Shenlang's last shiver was completed.
Mulan panted and praised sweetly, "Husband, you're so amazing. I almost fell apart because of you."
Shenlang clearly knew that his wife was flattering him, but he still accepted it.
He was really going all out.
Mulan was really a super rouge horse, very difficult to control.
In terms of physical strength, Mulan could easily kill ten Shenlang.
But fortunately, she loved Shenlang too much, so her love surged every time, so she could barely fight on par with him.
Shenlang smelled the fragrance of his wife's hair and said softly, "I really can't bear to leave my baby."
Mulan was stunned, then climbed up and said, "You want to leave me? Impossible, no. "
Shenlang: "If I'm not wrong, I'll be entering the capital in the next few days."
…
The next day!
The Monarch's decree once again came to the Xuan Wu Mansion.
"Summon Shenlang to see the Monarch, immediately, no delay!"
