章 122: Chapter 122
Three days ago!
The Monarch suddenly decreed that the Marquis of Zhenyuan, Su Nan, would be reinstated as the Great General of the Army, and conferred the title of the Crown Prince's Junior Protector.
Marquis Su Nan accepted the decree to express his gratitude and rushed to the capital.
Marquis Zhenyuan's statement dealt a fatal blow to the Xuan Wu Mansion!
The New Deal Party celebrated!
…
In the mansion of the Northern Marquis.
Zhang? The governor and the Marquis of Northern Town, Nangong Ao, were having a secret discussion.
Nangong Ao, General of the North.
He was one of the five giants of the State of Yue's military and a top-notch martial artist.
He was more than 1.9 meters tall and was as majestic as a mountain. He was tall and slender. When he sat, he was like a pine tree. When he stood, he was like a spear.
When his eyebrows were furrowed, they were like silkworms, but when they were raised, they were like two sharp blades.
His eyes were sharp and domineering.
His entire body was filled with a strong aura that made people want to avoid him.
"The Governor is worried that once Xuanwu is cornered, he will lead his army north to join the Wu Kingdom." In order to prevent such an outcome from happening, the governor has sent a memorial to the Monarch to increase the number of defenses at the border between the Wu and Yue Kingdoms. "
Nangong Ao said: "Once the Monarch gives the order, the Great General of the North will do as you say."
Following that, Marquis Zhenbei Nangong Ao said, "The commander of this rebellion is General Zhu Lin?"
"It should be him. After all, the General's Mansion is relatively close to the The South Kingdom. There's no need for him to travel far." "Marquis, your heir is twenty-five years old this year, right?"
"Yes."
Zhang? He said, "I have long heard that Crown Prince Nangong Xie has the bravery of ten thousand men. Compared to you in the past, you are not inferior."
"You flatter me."
There were a few experts among the younger generation of the Southern Heaven City's aristocrats.
In terms of swordsmanship and martial arts, Tang Yan, the Martial Maniac of the Jin Hai Count House, was the best. As the direct disciple of the South Sea Sword King, he was usually not at home but traveled around the world with his teacher.
In terms of horse-riding skills and the ability to lead troops, the Crown Prince of the Northern Marquis, Nangong Xie, was undoubtedly the best.
Zhang? He said, "Crown Prince, you are so valiant and your military skills are top-notch. Great General Zhu Lin wants you to give up your treasure and let Crown Prince lead an army into the The South Kingdom to quell the rebellion and be the vanguard."
Although the new policies of the State of Yue were getting more and more intense, it was still relatively peaceful on the whole, so it was getting harder and harder to get military merits.
Zhu Xi's suggestion to let the heir of the Northern Marquis, Nangong Xie, lead the army and be the vanguard was clearly to give him credit.
However, Marquis Zhenbei understood the hidden meaning in his words.
"My son is leading the army, is he leading the northern army or my family's private army?" Nangong Ao directly asked the essence of the question.
If he were to lead the northern army, it would be the State of Yue's army.
If it was a private army, it would be a strong political signal.
Northern Marquis took the lead in sending his family's private army to the The South Kingdom to quell the rebellion. Aren't you old nobles following suit? Do you still have any patriotism?
Therefore, if the Crown Prince of the Northern Marquis led his family's private army into battle, he would be the instigator.
Countless old nobles would bear a grudge against him.
Previously, when Zhang Jin and Xu Qianqian were engaged, Marquis Zhenbei had sent his second son, Nangong Ping, to attend.
This was the signal that his position was shifting towards the new political party.
Now, the new political party actually wanted him to take a step further and completely stand against the old nobles.
Marquis Zhenbei was silent.
Zhang? The governor said, "Second Young Master Nangong Ping has been an imperial censor for two years."
"Yes."
Zhang? The governor said, "One of my registrars has been sick for a long time. This position has been vacant for three months. I wonder if the Marquis can give it up again?"
The position of imperial censor sounded noble, but it did not have any real power. It was only a secondary seventh-rank.
For commoners without backing, this was the top position. But for the children of the rich and powerful, this position was just for show.
And in Taishou Prefecture, the highest registrar was a fifth-rank, and the lowest was a sixth-rank.
This was equivalent to a promotion of three ranks in a row.
Marquis Zhenbei Nangong Ao frowned and pondered for a moment. He nodded and said, "I will have the family's private army ready to go south to quell the rebellion."
He was not attracted by these two conditions.
The reason why he agreed was because of the decree of the Monarch three days ago.
Marquis Zhenyuan Su Nan was reinstated as the General of the Army.
This was like the first domino to fall, even though the State of Yue did not have such a word.
For Xuan Wu Mansion, this was a fatal blow.
For Marquis Zhenbei Nangong Ao, this was a dangerous signal.
Who was the biggest old noble in the State of Yue?
Duke Wei Wu Mansion, Marquis Zhenxi Mansion, Marquis Zhenyuan Mansion.
Xuan Wu Mansion could only be ranked in the top five.
Duke Wei Wu Mansion's fief was in Yanzhou. That place was too complicated and could not be moved.
Marquis Zhenxi Mansion's fief was connected to Chu in the west. It was the backbone of the defense against Chu and could not be moved.
Therefore, the first to bear the brunt of the new policy should have been Marquis Zhenyuan Mansion.
Marquis Zhenyuan Mansion's fief was three thousand square kilometers and had a private army of more than five thousand. It could be said to be the leader of the old noble.
Not only that, Shen Lang's mother-in-law, Su Peipei, was the daughter of the first wife of Marquis Zhenyuan Mansion.
When the wind of the new policy blew, Marquis Zhenyuan Su Nan tentatively resigned due to illness. In the end, the Monarch really agreed.
Therefore, the powerful Marquis Zhenyuan returned home, far away from the center of power, and looked a little lonely.
Not only that, he was also worried that the Monarch would cut him first with the new policy. Therefore, he was especially low-key and took the initiative to cut his private army from seven thousand to five thousand.
Unexpectedly, the Monarch's first attack was on Dongjiang Count House.
Now, the second attack of the new policy was on Xuan Wu Mansion.
Marquis Zhenyuan, who had been estranged for seven years, was once again reinstated as the General of the Army.
This was to tell Marquis Zhenyuan Su Nan not to support Xuan Wu Mansion. It would be good if he was obedient. Did he want the military power of tens of thousands of troops?
Moreover, this was also a deterrent to Marquis Zhenyuan. If Nangong Ao was not obedient, he could be replaced at any time.
Roping in one, beating one, threatening one.
Three birds with one stone. The Monarch played this method very well.
It was under such circumstances that Nangong Ao agreed to Zhang Xu's request. Zhang Xu's request.
"I will take the initiative to ask the Monarch to send the family's private army to the The South Kingdom to quell the rebellion." Nangong Ao said, "As for Xuan Wu, I believe he is righteous and will not do anything against the Monarch. But if he loses his mind, my army can go south at any time to quell all possible hidden dangers and rebellions. "
Zhang Xu? Immediately got up and bowed, "Thank you for everything, Marquis. I am extremely grateful. "
He was overjoyed.
Marquis Zhenyuan Nangong Ao was willing to be the knife in the Monarch's hand.
Next, the Monarch could be said to be murderous with this knife.
Which old aristocrat is not obedient? Directly issue a decree to let your family's private army go to the The South Kingdom to quell the rebellion.
And once these private troops go to the The South Kingdom, and under Zhu Lin's command, only God knows what will happen to them. This battlefield will dry up the blood of the old aristocrats.
Even a rebellion can become a political tool in the hands of the monarch.
And with Marquis Zhenyuan Nangong Ao's statement, it almost cut off any possibility of Xuan Wu armed resistance.
Xuan Wu Mansion's 3,000 private army is powerful, can it be more powerful than Marquis Zhenyuan's tens of thousands of troops?
Therefore, the success of the negotiation with Marquis Zhenyuan Mansion meant that the overall situation was half settled.
… …
Next, Nujiang Prefecture Governor Zhang Xu Met with Shu Tingyu of the Yinyuan Association.
"After the battle of Jinshan Island, Xuan Wu Mansion will completely lose Jinshan Island. Is your association sure that you will collect all the debts from Count Jin Zhuo and take back Wangya Island?" Zhang Xu said.
The envoy of the Yinyuan Association Shu Tingyu said, "Yes."
Zhang Xu hesitated for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Master Shu, may I ask, your association has been cooperating with the old aristocrats of the State of Yue for many years, why did you suddenly change your position?"
Shu Tingyu's steamed bun like face was still full of smiles, but his eyes were full of sarcasm.
"These old aristocrats only know how to protect themselves. Everyone knows that if the lips die, the teeth will be interdependent. But when the Dongjiang Count House was destroyed, who helped? Now that Xuan Wu Mansion is in trouble, who helped? "Shu Tingyu said," Marquis Zhenyuan is the leader of the old aristocrats, and the in-law of Xuan Wu. What happened in the end? When the Monarch issued the decree to rise, Marquis Su Nan couldn't wait to receive it. "
"Although the Marquis of Zhenyuan and Earl Xuanwu had a conflict, as the leader of an old noble family, the Marquis of Zhenyuan's residence did not send a single person to attend Jin Mulan's wedding. Of course, Jin Mulan got married in a hurry, but did Marquis Zhenyuan react in any way in the months after the wedding? Did he send any gifts? "
"These old aristocrats are like a plate of loose sand. If we, the Yinyuan Association, put our chips on these people, we will lose our lives."
Zhang? He smiled slightly.
It could be said that the old aristocrats were so vulnerable, Marquis Zhenyuan was the main culprit.
A snake can't be without its head. As the leader of the old aristocrats, you became a turtle, of course, you will be defeated by the Monarch.
Everyone knows that if the lips die, the teeth will be interdependent, but it is another matter to do it.
If everyone understood the principle of righteousness, the State of Qin during the Warring States Period would not have been able to destroy the other six states.
Shu Tingyu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said, "Governor, the new policy is not only for the old aristocrats."
This sentence was meaningful.
Zhang? Instantly understood.
Once the Monarch purged the old aristocrats, what would happen next?
Civil and military power would be divided.
At that time, the governor and governor would no longer have military power.
The county system was imperative, the centralization of power was unprecedented, and more power was in the hands of the Monarch.
But Zhang? But he pretended not to understand.
Because that was at least a decade later. At that time, he would have already entered the central. Even if he did not go on the stage to pay his respects, he would at least be the chief officer of the six ministries.
As the saying goes, after I die, I don't care what the flood is.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Zhang Jin's voice came.
"Father!"
Zhang? He frowned and said, "Come in."
Zhang Jin came in and whispered in Zhang's ear. He was about to whisper in Zhang's ear.
Shu Tingyu, the envoy of the Yinyuan Association, was about to go out.
"No need, just say it in public." Zhang?
Zhang Jin said, "Xu Guangyun's big workshop was burned down."
Zhang? His face twitched slightly.
Why did he let his second son, Zhang Jin, marry the daughter of a rich businessman?
It was because he wanted money.
After destroying Xuan Wu Mansion, he needed at least 100,000 gold coins to seek the position of commander-in-chief in Yanzhou.
The Xu family had to pay for all this money.
Now, the Xu family's big workshop had been burned down?
This was really bad news.
At this moment, Shu Tingyu, the envoy of the Yinyuan Association, suddenly said, "Zhang? Sir, I have a sister who is 18 years old this year. She is as beautiful as the moon. "
The meaning was very clear.
Zhang? If you want to seek the position of commander-in-chief in Yanzhou, the Yinyuan Association can help. We have money.
But some money is easy to take, and some is not.
Zhang? He pretended not to understand at all.
"Goodbye." Shu Tingyu did not say much and directly left.
…
"Father, just now, Shu Tingyu means …" Zhang Jin said.
Zhang? He waved his hand and said, "It's not easy to take their money. Don't take it unless you have to."
Zhang Jin said, "The Xuan Wu Mansion is about to be destroyed. Father's management of the commander-in-chief in Yanzhou will soon be put on the agenda. If the Xu family is in trouble and can't take out the money, it will delay father's plans."
Zhang? He said, "Do you like Xu Qianqian?"
Zhang Jin was silent for a moment, then nodded.
Zhang? He said, "She is a powerful woman. Although she is the daughter of a businessman, she can be a good wife to you."
Zhang Jin said, "But father will need a lot of money soon."
Zhang? He said, "We have to give the Xu family a chance. On the surface, the Xu family's big workshop has been burned down, but the most valuable thing about them is the Xu Xiu name, the channels, connections, and reputation they have built up over decades. As long as they survive this crisis, the golden signboard will not fall, and the burned workshop can be rebuilt. "
"As for the gold coins I need, as long as the Xu family's signboard is not falling, we can let them borrow money from the Yinyuan Association." Zhang? He said, "Don't do things like breaking the engagement easily. It's too damaging to your character."
Zhang Jin said, "Yes!"
Zhang? He sighed and said, "But if the Xu family can't survive this crisis and completely fall, then they have no value. No matter how excellent Xu Qianqian is, she can't be our daughter-in-law. I really hope there won't be a day when I, Zhang? Although I am a ruthless official, I don't like to see blood. "
Zhang Jin said, "Father, how about I go back to Xuanwu City?"
Zhang? He said, "No, the Xu family is just a small matter. The siege of Xuan Wu Mansion is a big matter. The next trip to Jin Hai Count House is very important. You can't be absent."
"Yes."
Zhang? He said, "Compared with Jin Mulan, who is better in martial arts?"
Zhang Jin said, "I don't know, but Tian Heng was killed by me in one move. I believe he is not worse than Jin Mulan."
Zhang? He said, "When you go to Jin Hai Count House to compete with that martial arts fanatic, you must do your best. You must determine how good Tang Yan's martial arts are. This is very important. You can't be careless."
"Yes!" Zhang Jin said.
Zhang? He said, "Calm your mind and prepare to go all out. Don't be distracted by Xu Qianqian's matter. If you are lucky, she will naturally become your wife. If not, then … there's nothing you can do. "
…
What should I do if I have a heart disease?
Go to the telephone pole to find the old military doctor?
Lin Zhuo's heart was filled with panic, but he also felt lucky.
Maybe it's not plum blossom?
Maybe it's just heat?
Or maybe it's just some other heart disease that won't kill people?
So Lin Zhuo disguised himself, completely covered his face, and went to a very private medical center.
Then he saw an old military doctor.
It was really an old military doctor. This doctor used to be in the army, but he retired and opened a medical center when he was old.
The doctor carefully examined Lin Zhuo's family jewels.
Lin Zhuo waited for the judgment of fate.
"Doctor, is this plum blossom?"
Lin Zhuo's voice was almost trembling.
He was too scared. He was in a constant state of anxiety.
The doctor shook his head.
Lin Zhuo was overjoyed!
God really saved me.
He was pulled back from hell.
I, Lin Zhuo, swear that I will never go out and fool around in the future. If I violate this oath, I will cut off my family jewels.
Of course, most men's oaths were bullsh * t.
The old doctor Youyou said, "Not only plum blossom, but also cauliflower, and there is a rash, not only on the family jewels, but also in the anus, so sometimes you should be very itchy and unbearable."
A thunderbolt hit Lin Zhuo's head hard.
"Is it true?
"No way!
"Maybe this doctor is wrong?
"Definitely not.
"I, Lin Zhuo, still have a bright future. How can I get this kind of disease?
"I still have a lot of things to do, such as killing Shen Lang, and making great contributions in destroying the Xuan Wu Mansion.
"For example, watching Jin Mulan, the princess of Xuanwu City, enter the Musical House.
"How can I die before I finish these things?
"This doctor must be wrong. He must be!"
"This doctor looks so serious, but his medical skills in this aspect must not be good."
Next, Lin Zhuo went to find three more doctors.
They all looked more wretched.
And they were specialized in treating venereal diseases.
All the doctors had the same judgment.
"And they were very shocked."
"Your Excellency, what on earth do you do? Are you a rabbit? I have never seen a person infected with seven or eight kinds of diseases. It's really an eye-opener! "
Lin Zhuo trembled and said, "Are you sure there are plum blossoms?"
What he was most afraid of was this kind of disease that could kill people.
"Yes, 100% sure." The wretched doctor said, "I specialize in treating diseases in brothels. Although plum blossoms are rare, I have seen at least 200, if not 300. I can't be wrong."
Lin Zhuo was really desperate, shivering all over, and said, "Then, is there any cure?"
The wretched doctor said, "There is no cure."
Lin Zhuo said, "Can't I cut … cut it off?"
The wretched doctor said, "The poison has attacked the heart, but it will attack the family jewels first. It's useless to cut it off."
"After going back, you can eat and drink. You don't have much time!"
…
In the Xuan Wu Mansion.
Shen Lang was painting Mulan.
Now it was like a storm was brewing. The siege on the Xuan Wu Mansion was getting fiercer and fiercer, and the noose was getting closer and closer.
The final battle of Jinshan Island was very close.
However, there was no tension in Shen Lang.
He was still leisurely.
Most of the time every day was eating, drinking, and having fun.
Not only did he eat, drink, and have fun, but he also dragged others with him.
What is a genius?
I, Shen Lang, spend the time of others working on drinking tea and having fun.
Of course, this time it was not Shen Lang's initiative to paint, but Mulan's initiative.
Because she saw the portrait of Xiao Bing.
But this woman was too conservative, unwilling to take off her clothes, and unwilling to stroke her hair coquettishly.
Master Shen lost a lot of space to play.
"Sweetheart, can you stick your butt back a little more?"
"That place of yours is the most beautiful in the world. It must be protruding. It must be curved and explosive. Explosive or not?"
"My wife, your name is not good. Why don't you call yourself Jin Mulan? It sounds like a block of wood. How about Jin Mulan?"
At this moment, Jin Zhong's voice sounded outside.
He was outside the yard and absolutely did not dare to come in.
He dared to come in before because he would not see anything he should not see.
But since Young Master Shen moved in, most of the time there were things that should not be seen in this yard.
"Miss, Su Jianting, the Crown Prince of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, requests to see you. Master wants you to go."
Shen Lang frowned.
Because this time, Jin Zhong did not mention Shen Lang.
What did this mean?
Count did not want Shen Lang to meet Su Jianting, the Crown Prince of Zhenyuan Marquis.
Who was this person?
And Mulan was originally embarrassed and sweet because of Shen Lang's teasing.
At this moment, after hearing Su Jianting's name, her face suddenly changed dramatically and was full of coldness.
Su Jianting and the Marquis Mansion, these two words were a taboo in this family.
This Su Jianting was not only Mulan's cousin.
Moreover, the two were betrothed before they were born.
But eight years ago, Mulan was only thirteen years old at that time.
The two families tore up the marriage contract.
Since then, the relationship between the two families was completely cold and almost broke off.
Today, this cousin of hers actually came to visit once again!
Master Jin told us that all the cousin of the female lead was not a good thing.
Shen Lang only glanced at Mulan's expression, then without saying anything, he stepped on the stool and wrote three words on the wall.
Su Jianting!
The first on the list of enemies!
