章節 21: Chapter 21
Following the order of the Count Lord, the Count House sent out dozens of people to announce the news of Jin Mulan's marriage. They also sent out wedding invitations, inviting the celebrities of Xuanwu City to attend the wedding that night.
Suddenly, the entire Xuanwu City was boiling. Countless young men beat their chests and stamped their feet.
She was the daughter of the Count House. She had a noble status, high martial arts skills, a beautiful face, and a devilish body.
She was a real goddess. She was the number one goddess in the entire Nujiang Prefecture. Countless people adored her.
Xu Qianqian, who was born into a rich family, needed to build up her reputation everywhere. She wanted to become a famous lady in Nujiang Prefecture.
However, Jin Mulan rarely showed up. The title of famous lady was a compliment to Xu Qianqian, but it was a humiliation to Jin Mulan.
She was the daughter of a wealthy family. What famous lady? She was a famous lady. Her whole family were famous ladies.
Xu Qianqian had a lot of pursuers. Jin Mulan was more beautiful than her. Her body was even hotter. However, no young man in the entire Xuanwu City dared to pursue her.
They were ashamed of themselves!
Everyone thought that a beauty like Jin Mulan should at least marry into a marquis's family.
All the men in Xuanwu City could only dream of her. They could only fantasize about her in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, the princess of Xuanwu City was going to marry someone. It was really bad news.
They couldn't afford to have such a goddess. However, she couldn't get married either. It would be best if she stayed single for the rest of her life.
On this day, countless young men in Xuanwu City were drunk. They pulled out their swords and started to fight.
"Who is it? Which man wants to marry my princess? I will kill him! I will kill him! "
"Goddess, how can you do this? How can you get married? You have betrayed us! "
However, those with a little bit of fame and power in Xuanwu City smelled something strange.
Who was the daughter of the Count House, Jin Mulan, going to marry? The name of the groom was not mentioned on the wedding invitation, and there had never been any news about it.
What was even stranger was that the wedding was going to be held tonight. It was too rushed.
This kind of hundred-year-old noble wedding was very grand and complicated. First, they would send a team of important people to propose marriage, and after both sides agreed, the engagement would proceed.
After the engagement, both families sent gifts to each other, held a few big banquets, and held a few hunts. This let everyone in the noble circle know that these two families were going to have a marriage alliance.
Then, both sides waited for the Monarch's blessing.
Under normal circumstances, the Monarch was more than happy to add flowers to the brocade. Not only would they send blessings, but they would also give gifts to both parties.
After receiving the blessings of the Monarch, they would ask the Magician and the Astronomer to calculate an auspicious date suitable for both families. Finally, the wedding would be held in the main hall.
After so many twists and turns, the wedding would take at least a year and a half.
How could they announce it on the same day and get married on the same day?
…
At this time, the entire Earl's Mansion was also making preparations for the wedding that night.
Countless food, fruits, and wine were prepared. The whole manor and castle were decorated with lanterns and streamers. All the servants were rewarded with money and new clothes. Even all the horses and hounds were given extra meals.
Although it was rushed, and it was to find a son-in-law, the whole wedding had to be grand, because it was a show for the Zhu family.
Although Shen Lang was the protagonist of this wedding, it seemed that everything had nothing to do with him. In his guest room, he just ate, slept, slept, and ate.
…
Because the name of the groom was not mentioned in the wedding invitation, this wedding had nothing to do with Tian Heng.
Although he was the leader of the underworld, he could not reach the level of the Xuan Wu Mansion. Basically, it was impossible for him to attend the wedding.
Of course, as the leader of the militia in Xuanwu City, he would definitely send a congratulatory gift. But whether the Count House would accept it or not was another matter.
Tian Heng did not care about this, because the people behind him were not in the same camp as Count Xuanwu.
In fact, he was very grateful to Shen Lang. Originally, the Xu family was only willing to give him 100 gold coins. But after Shen Lang made the new formula of the golden dye, everything changed. He got more than 1,000 gold coins.
Not only did the Xu family give him gold coins, but the Lin family of the Splendid Court also gave him 500 gold coins as a reward.
Because the Lin family and the Xu family cooperated, Lin Mo's son would get great benefits in the military selection examination and the appointment after the military selection.
Therefore, the Lin family also had to thank Tian Heng.
Shen Lang made the new formula of the golden dye, which was a great benefit. The three forces would work together to kill Shen Lang and then reap the benefits.
The dirty work would be left to Tian Heng!
After sending Tian Xianzhi to kill Shen Lang's family, Tian Heng did not take it seriously anymore.
Shen Lang was just like an ant, not worthy of his death.
In order to show his attitude, the assassin Tian Xianzhi of the Black Man Gang brought more than ten people to Maple Leaf Village and surrounded the front and back of Shen Lang's house.
Tian Xianzhi looked at the broken mud wall and sighed in his heart, "Weakness is the original sin!"
Then, he waved his hand lightly and said, "Under the order of the governor, Shen Wan and his family hid their land and evaded taxes. Arrest them immediately, and kill anyone who resists!"
"Do it!"
Following Tian Xianzhi's order, the warriors of the Black Man Gang, dressed in civilian clothes, drew their knives and rushed towards Shen Lang's house.
Although they were a gang, they were still very meticulous in doing things. They would not directly rush into the house and start a massacre, but they would arrest the whole family in the name of the government. At that time, Shen Lang would have no choice but to hand over the formula of the purple and rainbow dye.
Of course, even if Shen Lang was willing to hand it over, his whole family would not be able to escape.
This gang leader really had an official identity. The warriors under him all had the identity of the civilian army of Xuanwu City, and Tian Xianzhi really had the arrest warrant in his hands. Everything was legal.
"Bang, bang …"
The main door of Shen Lang's house was extremely fragile, and it flew out directly.
However, after rushing through the door, what he saw shocked Tian Xianzhi.
There was no panic, no screams.
Shen Lang's father was lying on the bed, coughing and holding a hatchet in his hand.
Shen Lang's mother stood in front of the bed, holding a kitchen knife in her hand. As for Shen Lang's brother, he suddenly sat up, holding a walking stick that he had just made.
The three of them did not beg for mercy. They just stared coldly at the warriors of the Black Man Gang.
Shen Lang was not at home, so their weakness was not there. Instead, they appeared to be fearless.
When Tian Xianzhi saw this, he could not help but be slightly startled. He smiled and said, "Old man, what are you doing?"
As he spoke, he took out the iron ruler and walked towards Shen Lang's father. The smile on his face was still as warm as ever.
Shen Lang was not at home, but Tian Xianzhi did not care. As long as he captured this family, Shen Lang would definitely appear. It would be difficult for him to escape even if he had wings.
Shen Lang's father said, "We are all useless people. It doesn't matter."
Tian Xianzhi said, "Are you going to resist arrest with a knife? This is tantamount to rebellion. In that case, I'm sorry, your nephew can only make a move. " "
After saying that, his iron ruler casually chopped towards Shen Lang's father's arm.
If this hit, Shen Lang's father's arm would definitely be smashed into pieces.
At the same time, the warriors under him also pounced towards Shen Lang's mother and brother.
At this moment, Tian Xianzhi suddenly felt the hairs on his back stand up. He immediately turned around and saw a figure standing outside Shen Lang's house.
It was an ordinary middle-aged man. He did not even hold a knife in his hand. However, the aura from his body made Tian Xianzhi feel a prickle in his back.
This was an expert.
"By the order of the City Lord, we are here to arrest those who are hiding in the fields to evade taxes. Unrelated people, please leave immediately." Tian Xianzhi shouted.
Outside Shen Lang's house was the servant of the Count House, Jin Zhong. In fact, he had been here for a long time. He just deliberately waited for Tian Xianzhi to break the door before he appeared. This was the way he did things.
After hearing Tian Xianzhi's words, Jin Zhong said, "Oh, we should not disturb the City Lord's official business. However, my master has invited Mr. Shen's family to attend the wedding. If I don't invite them back, I will not be able to answer to my master. Could you please pass the message?"
When these words came out, Tian Xianzhi secretly felt that something was wrong. This was because the other party was very polite and very calm.
He had seen too many people and killed too many people. He deeply knew that the more powerful a person was, the calmer they were. On the contrary, people without a background liked to talk tough and bluff.
Tian Xianzhi said, "May I ask who you are?"
If the other party really had a powerful background, then he would think about it. However, if the other party did not have a powerful background, then he could not blame Tian Xianzhi for being ruthless. Anyway, he was doing this in the name of the government.
"Jin Zhong." The middle-aged man said.
When these words came out, Tian Xianzhi's face changed.
He had heard this name before!
Of course, Jin Zhong was not a big shot. In Xuan Wu Mansion, he was not a very capable person. However, in Tian Heng's dictionary, he was a person that absolutely could not be provoked. This was because he was the trusted servant of the Count House Count.
And what was even more frightening was that the master behind him was Count Xuanwu, Jin Zhuo.
Tian Xianzhi felt that his breathing was a lot heavier. Cold sweat broke out on his back. Even his hair was standing up.
He forced himself to calm down and asked, "Is your master inviting Shen Lang's parents to attend the wedding?"
"Yes!" Jin Zhong said lightly.
Tian Xianzhi immediately thought of Shen Lang's beautiful face. After they parted in the early morning yesterday, Shen Lang disappeared.
He did not expect that the other party had a relationship with the Count House. Things were not good.
Tian Xianzhi, who lived on the edge of a knife all year round, immediately felt a dangerous atmosphere. He was not sure how close Shen Lang was to the Count House.
He hoped that it was not too close. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble.
