Chapter 156: chapter 156: a huge incident!
Translator: 549690339
“Miss, what’s wrong?”
The female guard outside hurriedly asked, and she unsheathed her sword, ready to charge in at any moment.
!!
Xue Li quickly covered her mouth. no, nothing. I just had a nightmare.
She closed her eyes and really hoped that this was a nightmare.
However, when he opened his eyes again, the blisters and rashes were still there. The strange itch that felt like ants crawling in his bones was getting more and more serious.
Although she was domineering, she was not ignorant.
She knew that she must not let anyone know, or else it would cause a huge uproar. Otherwise, her and zhonglang’s future would be over.
Oh my God? What was going on? What did I do wrong? Why did the heavens punish me like this?
I clearly love cleanliness the most. Why did she contract such a terrible disease?
Next!
Xue Li didn’t sleep the entire night. He was in extreme pain and suffering.
The next day!
She immediately changed her order. Instead of returning to the capital, she headed south to wuan city.
She wanted to go home.
At this time, only her family could be trusted, and only the family’s female doctor could treat her.
Moreover, she didn’t dare to ride a horse anymore, as it would kill her. But even in the carriage, he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.
It was as if every part of the journey was a torment, and he couldn’t sleep at all during the day and night.
In just a few days, he had become Haggard and lost more than a dozen pounds.
He felt as if he was in hell.
It was truly agonizing.
………………
When Shen lang saw Jin mucong again, he felt that this fat otaku had matured a lot.
“Fatty, what are you doing?” Shen lang asked.
“Copying books,” fat otaku replied.
“What are you copying?” Shen lang asked.
“It’s the 19 policy papers you taught me, the 150 poems,” fat otaku replied.
the battle for the Jinshan Island is over, ” Shen lang said. this thing is useless.
People burn books after the college entrance examination, but you’re still copying. You’re really addicted.
“Brother-in-law, if I don’t work hard, I won’t be able to get a wife in the future,” Jin mucong said.
“So?” Shen lang asked.
“Therefore, I plan to take the imperial examination. I want to be a scholar like Tang Yun,” Jin mucong said.
Shen lang said, ” fatty, don’t scare me. You are going to inherit the palace of the Earl in the future. You will enjoy endless wealth and glory. Why should we fight with these poor scholars for this single-log bridge?”
“Once I get into the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, the girls will like me when they see my talent,” Jin mucong said.
Other people take the imperial examination to become an official, but you’re doing it for your sister?
Jin mucong said,”so, brother-in-law, quickly get me more articles.” It would be best to write 700 to 800 policy papers and a few thousand poems. If I can’t do this, I’ll go for the next one. I don’t believe I won’t be able to do it once.”
Shen lang was shocked by Fatty’s determination.
“Fatty, if you have such perseverance, why don’t you make an article yourself?”
Jin mucong said,”brother-in-law, why is a smart person like you talking nonsense?” How can such a stupid person like me write such a story?”
Shen lang was shocked. It seemed like fat otaku had really matured.
……………………
The next day!
Tang Lun, the son of the Earl of Jinhai, came to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu in person.
uncle Black Tortoise, my family has already followed the contract and officially handed over the gold Mountain Island to the Jin family. Please head over to receive it!
Shen lang was overjoyed,”Jin Hai Bo is really a trustworthy person.”
Then, uncle Black Tortoise was in high spirits. He led 2000 private troops, 200 smelting craftsmen, and 800 miners to take over the gold Mountain Island on dozens of large ships.
Tang Yun, the son of the Earl of Jinhai, personally accompanied them.
Along the way, Shen lang treated Prince Tang Yun with great enthusiasm. He was completely honest with him.
“Prince Tang Yun, I really didn’t expect your father to be so decisive and wise. It seems that I’ve really underestimated the heroes of the world.”
“More than a hundred years ago, our Jin family and the Tang family were on good terms. After that, there were indeed some misunderstandings, but this misunderstanding has been resolved now. It’s time for our two families to put aside the previous enmity.”
When Tang Yun heard Shen Lang’s words, he sneered in his heart but nodded his head in agreement.
Shen lang said, ” now, the new policies are in full swing. Both of our families are old-school aristocrats. We should move forward hand in hand and be United. From now on, our two families will be on good terms again and become brother families. What do you think?”
“You’re right, brother Shen,” Tang Yun said.
Shen lang said, ” I heard that brother Tang has a younger sister. She’s 16 years old. She’s well-read, beautiful, and generous. Since my son Jin mucong is not married yet, why don’t we form a good relationship here and continue the friendship from more than a hundred years ago?”
“Doesn’t Jin mucong have an engagement?” Tang Yun asked.
“It has been removed,” Shen lang said.
Tang Yun felt even more pleased. The palace of the Earl of Wu an had finally called off the engagement with the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Your Jin clan is no longer a fallen man being pushed by everyone, but a fallen man being stepped on by everyone.
“This matter is too big, I can’t make the decision, but I’ll go back and report to father.” “But I believe father will seriously consider it,” said Tang Yun.
Shen lang said, ” that’s good. That’s good. I look forward to the day when our families can be connected by marriage again.
At this moment, Jin Hui said, ” “Son-in-law, we’ve arrived at the gold Mountain Island.”
in front of them was the dock of jinshan island, which was usually used to transport iron ore.
The fleet of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu started to line up and prepare to land on the gold Mountain Island.
all craftsmen and miners, get ready to land and officially take over the gold Mountain Island mine and smelting factory. The Earl ordered.
Then, a few large ships took the lead and docked at the dock.
A few hundred Warriors took the lead to set up a simple defensive position on the island.
Then, a few hundred people who were absent and a hundred craftsmen began to land on the island, ready to take over the smelting factory near the dock.
Tang Yun from the palace of the Earl of Jinhai also took the opportunity to land on the island.
And at this moment, the drums suddenly sounded.
Countless Pirate Warriors poured out of the smelting factory On Gold Mountain Island.
A few thousand people!
In a short period of time, they had surrounded the hundreds of Warriors, miners, and craftsmen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Then, the leader of the group rushed out.
He was bare-chested and looked as majestic as a mountain. He held a huge blade in his hand and rushed to the front of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s warrior formation. He slashed down.
In an instant, the two warriors were cut into two.
Even though these Warriors had been hired a few months ago, uncle Black Tortoise’s face still twitched.
The murderer was the adopted son of the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei, the fourth most powerful man in the Furious tide city, Qiu Hao.
On the boat, Shen lang and uncle Black Tortoise were completely stunned by the scene before them.
“Why is brother Tang Yun doing this?” Shen lang was shocked,”didn’t your family hand over the entire Gold Mountain Island to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu?” Why are there Pirates from raging tide city?”
Tang Yun, who had already landed on the island, said innocently,”I don’t know either. In order to cooperate with the handover of the island, we all withdrew from the island three days ago.” I didn’t expect that the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei would be so despicable to take the opportunity to attack and occupy the island.”
Then, Prince Tang Yun loudly said, ” Pirates of raging tide city, listen up! My Tang family has already handed over this Island to the Jin family. It’s now the foundation of the Jin family. You should leave quickly.
“Hahahahahaha!” The adopted son of the Pirate King, Chou howmai, laughed out loud. what a joke! The things that have fallen into our Qiu clan’s hands have never been returned!
“Get Qiu Tianwei to come out and talk,” said Jin Zhuo, the Earl of Black Tortoise, while trembling.
Qiu Wu said, ” Earl of Xuanwu, more than 20 years ago, your father, the Earl of golden universe, was defeated by my foster father. So, you have no right to let him talk to you. It’s already an honor for me to talk to you.
Shen lang said, ” How dare you? my father-in-law is the descendant of a hundred-year-old aristocrat. He is the Earl of Black Tortoise of Yue country.
“Bah!” The Pirate King’s adopted son, Chou Hao, laughed out loud. “Twenty years ago, your Jin clan was completely annihilated by us. Such useless trash still wants to earn our respect? Your name is Shen lang, right?”
“So what if I am?” Shen lang said.
Qiu Wu slapped his thigh and laughed. the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is already doomed. Shen lang, you are so fair and beautiful. If you crawl between my legs now, I will give you a way out in the future and let you become my little husband. How about it? ”
Shen lang pretended to be fierce and said, ” Qiu Hao, you are all Pirates. You have seized the gold Mountain Island openly. You are going against the Yue country. Aren’t you afraid that the king will be angry? ”
“Hahahaha!” He howled, ” “Your King can’t wait for you to die.”
Then, he laughed out loud and said,”uncle Black Tortoise, you want the gold Mountain Island?” If you can defeat us, then the gold Mountain Island will be your Jin family’s.”
Uncle Xuanwu and Shen lang saw that the island was densely packed with Pirates. There were more than 5000 of them, which was two to three times the number of them.
Moreover, the defense had already been set up.
Uncle Black Tortoise said with a hoarse voice,’Qiu Wu, I won’t lower myself to your level today. Immediately bring back my family’s several hundred Warriors, several hundred miners, and one hundred craftsmen.”
“Hahahahahahaha!” Yingluo howled in hatred, ” stop daydreaming. I will gladly accept the few hundred Warriors, miners, and craftsmen of your Jin clan. Thank you, uncle Black Tortoise.
Uncle Black Tortoise pointed at him and trembled,”you, you are shameless!”
And at this moment!
A series of rapid drum beats sounded on the sea.
A fleet appeared on the sea.
More than 100 battleships headed toward the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fleet aggressively.
it’s a pirate fleet! Shen lang exclaimed. this is an ambush! A trap!
“Run! Run! Run!”
After that, the fleet of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu escaped.
However, they were still not fast enough, and the pirate fleet would soon catch up.
“Throw all the useless things into the sea,” Shen lang shouted.
In an instant, countless rations, resources, and weapons were thrown into the sea.
Just like that, the fleet of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu increased their speed and escaped the siege of the raging tide city’s Pirates.
Uncle Black Tortoise stood on the dock and pointed at the gold Mountain Island as he roared, ” “I hate it, I hate it! Just you wait, Qiu Tianwei, I will definitely report this to the monarch and ask him to send an Army to suppress you.”
At this time, the hundreds of Warriors, absent, and blacksmiths from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu on the island had all been disarmed and were now prisoners.
we happen to be lacking in missed work and blacksmiths. Many thanks to uncle Black Tortoise for sending us such valuable manpower. Qiu Wu laughed.
Uncle Black Tortoise couldn’t hold it in any longer. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward, completely unconscious.
From the beginning to the end, the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei did not appear.
His adopted son, Chou Wu, walked into the most gorgeous house on the island. Immediately, a few beautiful men came forward to serve him.
Then, a beautiful figure walked out. It was Zhang Chunhua.
“How is miss Zhang?” Qiu Wu asked. The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is completely vulnerable!”
……………………………
In the cabin!
Uncle Black Tortoise was currently gargling his mouth.
In order to put on a good show of vomiting blood, he had really gritted his teeth just now and did not use pig’s blood or duck’s blood to replace it.
“Good acting skills, father-in-law,” Shen lang said.
Uncle Black Tortoise shook his head helplessly. He hated acting the most.
lang ‘er, isn’t the cost of our acting a little too high? a whole 300 Warriors, 700 miners, and 100 craftsmen have all become prisoners of raging tide city.
Shen lang said,”in order to lure the wolf, one has to pay the price.” Besides, if our Jin clan isn’t miserable enough, how can we make it look real? how can we continue with the next strategy? For the sake of raging tide city, what is this little price worth?”
Furthermore, these people were only captives. At worst, they would be forced to do manual labor for a month, and their lives wouldn’t be in danger.
Shen lang said, ” father-in-law, you have vomited blood. You still have to pretend to be sick. You have to keep sending letters to the king and ask him to send troops to attack the Pirates of raging tide city.
“Are we really not going to tell the trusted general of the palace of the Earl about the truth of this matter?” Earl Jin Zhuo asked.
Shen lang said, ” of course not. It’s a big deal. The more people know, the more dangerous it is for the secret to be leaked.
The second step of Shen Lang’s strategy was a success.
One-fourth of the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei’s forces were tied up at the gold Mountain Island.
The most important thing was that it directly pushed forward the next game.
…………………………
Good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
The Pirate King, Qiu Tianwei, sent troops to the Jinshan Island, defeated the private army of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, and captured thousands of people.
The Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, vomited blood in public.
As if the news had wings, it spread throughout Yue country in just a few days.
Countless people wrung their hands.
Countless people were celebrating.
How many days had the Jin family been proud of themselves?
They had won the battle of the Golden Mountain Island for less than a month, and now they had completely lost it.
It was really a tragedy.
Now, not only had they lost gold Mountain Island, but they had also captured a thousand people.
It was really a serious injury.
Not only did the Jin clan not get to eat the meat, but they even had a few of their teeth crushed. This was really satisfying, really satisfying!
When Black Tortoise Bo Jin Zhuo returned home, he immediately fell ill.
On the sickbed, he wrote a few memorials to the monarch.
Each one was more miserable than the last.
Every Memorial was like a Cuckoo crying blood, requesting the king to send troops to destroy the Pirates and take back the gold Mountain Island.
The king was furious and ordered the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei to leave the island immediately. Otherwise, he would bear the consequences.
However, Qiu Tianwei ignored the emperor’s decree.
The king had sent many edicts to express his concern for the Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, and had also sent the Imperial physicians and countless tonics. This kind of concern was unprecedented.
However, regarding the matter of sending troops to exterminate the Pirates, the king said that the war in the South was in progress, and the National Treasury was unable to support the opening of two battlefields at the same time.
However, uncle Black Tortoise could rest assured that once the war in the South beating country was over, he would immediately send troops to attack Qiu Tianwei and take back the gold Mountain Island.
Count Xuanwu sent a few more memorials and finally, a blood letter, asking the monarch to send troops.
However, the monarch did not respond.
Hence, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu became the most miserable aristocrat in the entire Yue country.
It was like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment.
In everyone’s eyes, the Jin family’s destruction was right in front of them.
Not only did the victory of the battle of the gold Mountain Island not bring them any hope of survival, but it also accelerated the destruction of the Jin family.
……
It was also at this time that the yin Yuan Association’s Messenger Shu tingyu came to visit the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
He was officially demanding payment for the astronomical debt from twenty years ago.
The original debt of one million gold, plus the interest for twenty years, totaled one million seven hundred thousand gold.
However, in the past 20 years, Earl Jin Zhuo had gradually lost a million gold coins, and he was left with 700000 gold coins.
Count Jin Zhuo was already completely bedridden and was on the verge of death.
Jin Mulan and Shen lang were the ones in charge of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Mulan said sorrowfully,”emissary Shu, we’ve already done our best to pay back a million gold coins in the past 20 years.” Right now, my entire family’s total gold coins do not exceed twenty thousand. No matter what, I can not take out this seven hundred thousand gold coins.”
What he said was true. Even if the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu emptied all their warehouses, they would not be able to gather 20000 gold coins. They might not even be able to gather 10000 gold coins.
Shen lang had spent most of the gold coins.
Shen lang said, ” Yin Yuan Association has been on good terms with my family for a hundred years. Can’t you give us some more time on account of our past relationship? ” Even if it’s a year?”
Shen lang bowed and said, ” emissary Shu, please extend the deadline to my family for one year. I, Shen lang, thank you for your kindness. Please, I beg you!
I’m very sorry, ” Shu tingyu said. I’m also very sympathetic to your family’s encounter, but I can’t help even if I wanted to.
Jin Mulan said sorrowfully,’Shu tingyu, are you going to force us to our deaths? Are you going to watch my entire Jin clan hang themselves?”
Shu tingyu said expressionlessly,”within a month, pay back 700000 gold coins according to the contract.” Otherwise, our hidden essence society will have to follow the contract and take back the gazing Cliff Island you pawned.”
we’ve already lost gold Mountain Island, ” Jin Mulan said angrily. now you want to take back our gaze Cliff Island. I’d rather die than hand over the island unless you step over my dead body.
the contract from back then, ” Shu tingyu said. it’s written clearly in black and white. If you can’t return the 700000 gold coins in a month, I can only appeal to the king and ask him to uphold justice and take away your family’s gaze Cliff Island.”
Then, Shu tingyu said, ” young master Shen lang, you have always been very capable. Why don’t you go and raise the money? you might be able to raise 700000 gold coins in a month.
How much was 700000 gold coins?
The total income of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, including taxes, salt, iron, and silk, was less than 70000 Yuan a year.
To gather 700000 gold coins, the Earl of Xuanwu would need a full ten years without eating or drinking.
Xu Guangyun was extremely rich, but his entire fortune only added up to a little more than 200000 gold coins.
This was an astronomical figure.
The annual tax of the entire Tiannan province was less than seven hundred thousand gold.
It would be a fool’s dream to collect so many gold coins in a month.
Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, it was a foregone conclusion that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu would lose the gazing Cliff Island.
Once they lost hope Cliff Island, the Jin family would lose 70% of their financial resources, and they could only disband their private army.
And without the private army, what could they rely on to protect their family’s land?
Therefore, after losing gaze Cliff Island, the Jin family was considered to have perished.
After Shu tingyu left, Mulan let out a long sigh.
She clearly didn’t know how to act, but her husband forced her to act.
Every second of acting just now was torture for her.
Shen lang could not help but kiss her and said, ” “Wife, you acted really well!”
“Husband, although we’re just acting, everything about them is real.” To earn 700000 gold coins in a month, I can’t even imagine it. Can you really do it?”
“Wife, don’t you believe in my abilities?” Shen lang said.
Mulan said,”of course I believe it, but Yingying’s idea is too unbelievable. There are only a few families in the world who can take out 700000 gold coins at once.” The entire Tiannan province’s taxes added together do not even reach seven hundred thousand gold coins. This is even harder than ascending to the heavens!”
“Wife, how about we make a bet?” Shen lang said.
“Go on,” Mulan said.
“If I can earn more than 700000 gold coins in a month, you will eat me!” Shen lang said.
……
Jin Hui returned to his own courtyard with a sorrowful expression.
The arrogant girl that he had saved had been living in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu for more than a month.
She had almost seen the process of a family’s demise with her own eyes and felt the same way.
In this one month, Jin Hui had been extremely in love with her, but he also respected her like a goddess.
He gave her the best of everything, but he never dared to get close to her, only daring to look at her from a distance.
Legend has it that as long as I see you, I’ll be happy. That’s Jin Hui.
He had done all that a bootlicker could do.
It was under the care of the Jin siblings that this proud girl with a congenital heart disease gradually calmed down.
She felt that she was very happy in this small courtyard.
However, this happiness seemed to be coming to an end now, and the Jin family was about to be destroyed.
“Miss Hongxian, I’ll send you home,” Jin Hui said.
“What?” the tsundere girl was shocked. You’re sending me home?”
Jin Hui said, ” son-in-law said that the Jin family is about to face a great disaster. We can’t drag you down. Tell me where your home is and I’ll send you back. You’re an innocent person and have no reason to be buried with us.”
The arrogant girl’s eyes immediately turned red.
She looked at Jin Hui and suddenly said, ” “Jin Hui, do you like me?”
Jin Hui’s face turned red and he couldn’t say anything.
“Do you despise me for being defiled by others?” the tsundere girl asked again.
no, no! Jin Hui shook his head. no, no! That will only make me respect you more. I will think that you are even more pure and innocent.
“Then from today onwards, I’m your wife. This room will be our nuptial chamber,” the tsundere girl said.
Jin Hui seemed to be stunned by a huge happiness. Then, he quickly shook his head and said, ” “I, I’m not good enough for you. Guye said you’re from a rich family, I’m not good enough for Yingluo.”
Before Jin Hui could finish, his mouth was sealed by this tsundere woman.
Jin Hui was impressive. He actually consummated his marriage earlier than Shen lang.
…………
Mulan ran away, leaving Shen lang alone in the study room.
However, as she ran, she nodded without a trace.
Shen Lang’s heart beat wildly, and he only calmed down after a while.
Then, he looked toward the east.
Once the go arrangement started, it was really fast.
Everything was going according to plan.
The only uncertain part of the plan was Xu Qianqian.
Most importantly, her role was very important. It could even be the key to success or failure.
There was still no news from her, so he wondered how her plan was going.
He wondered if she had already become Chou Yao ‘er’s trusted aide.
Do I, master lang, really have to do it personally?
I’m really afraid of being kicked to death by that She-Devil.
It was said that this Qiu Yao ‘er was extremely hostile to men, especially beautiful men.
At this moment, Jin Zhong rushed in and said anxiously, ” “Son-in-law, someone is here to collect a debt.”
“Didn’t Shu tingyu of the hidden origins sect just leave?” Shen lang asked in shock.
Jin Zhong said, ” it’s Lin Mo from the splendid Pavilion. He said that you owe him 1000 gold coins. Now that a few months have passed, it’s a total of 1300 gold coins, including principal and interest. Please return it immediately.
Shen lang was stunned.
When he killed Lin Zhuo, Lin Mo had escaped that night.
Shen lang did not go out of his way to look for such a small character.
He didn’t expect that such a small figure would come to his door and slap him in the face.
Was he crazy?
Even if a wall is down, everyone would kick it, so what?
When did Shen lang owe him 1000 gold coins?
It was said that when a Tiger fell into the sun, it would be bullied by dogs. However, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had not been completely destroyed yet, and a small-time merchant like him actually dared to bully them. Wasn’t he courting death?
Among his first few enemies, Tian Heng, Xu Guangyun, and Viscount Zhu Lanting were all more impressive than Lin Mo.
Now that they were all dead, not only did you not die, but you also jumped out.
A cockroach!
Awesome, awesome!
Just based on your tenacity, I’ll definitely give you a super unique way to die.
……
In the living room!
Shen lang saw Lin Mo again.
The owner of the splendid Pavilion, the one who had betrayed him first.
However, he didn’t come alone. There was an official beside him who seemed to hold a high position.
When he saw Shen lang, Lin Mo did not hide the hatred in his heart at all. Shen lang was the one who killed his son, Lin Zhuo.
“Shen lang, when you sold me the formula for the gold dye, you received 1000 gold coins from me. However, you stole this formula from the Xu family. Now, it’s time to return the 1000 gold coins. Don’t think that you can renege on your debt just because you are the son-in-law of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu!”
What? Even a small character like you can point at a deer as a horse.
When did I take your 1000 gold coins?
It was also at this moment.
Another enemy, Zhu Wenhua, rushed in. Behind him was city Lord Liu Wuyan and two unfamiliar officials.
Shen lang, you’ve been exposed. You’re suspected of murdering my father, Viscount Zhu Lanting. Come with us to the governor’s mansion!
Shen lang laughed in his heart!
Interesting, this is getting more and more interesting.
This scene was so wonderful!

[ note: the first chapter is over 7000 words. I wrote until 8 am. I went to sleep for a few hours and continued to write after I got up. ]
My brothers, I urgently need your firepower support!
