History's Strongest Son-In-Law Living With The In-Laws - Chapter 276

Chapter 276: Master lang is popular and the Crown Prince is recruiting?

Translator: 549690339

As the ruler of a country, was it against the rules to head to another country’s territory?

Of course!

!!
And it was a sensational act.

Generally speaking, if the two kings wanted to meet, they would build a high platform on the border of the two countries.

The central axis of this platform was the border between the two countries, and the two kings were still within their own territory.

Of course, there was another situation, which was a state visit. The monarch of one country would enter another country.

When Emperor Jiang Li was still in power, many crown princes and even monarchs visited the DA Qian Kingdom.

However, after Jiang Li’s death, the atmosphere in the eastern countries changed.

Even the Crown Prince rarely visited other countries, let alone the Kings.

Ning yuanxian was practicing his calligraphy.

Moreover, he was practicing writing in a very angry manner.

That was because he had heard what Shen lang said.

The monarch’s calligraphy is not bad, but it’s not noble enough. I’ll teach him a new kind of calligraphy one day, and it’ll definitely be noble.

This time, ning yuanxian was indignant.

Little brat, you’re talking big.

Shen lang, I acknowledge your talent in poetry.

But in terms of calligraphy, how can you compare to me?

I, ning yuanxian, am a first-class calligrapher. I have my own style of calligraphy. I’m afraid there is no other calligraphy in the world that is more noble than mine. You, Shen lang, are still wet behind the ears and know nothing.

After he finished writing, ning yuanxian felt that the more he looked at it, the better it looked.

She wanted to grab Shen lang and let him open his eyes to take a good look.

When he took out Shen Lang’s words, the monarch said in disdain, ” Shen Lang’s calligraphy is too frivolous. It’s not worth mentioning at all. I don’t know where he got his confidence from. He actually dared to criticize my calligraphy. He’s really shameless and doesn’t have any self-awareness.

The head eunuch, Li Sun, did not say anything. Since the king was in a good mood, he did not have to flatter him.

To Li Sun, the monarch’s handwriting was better than Shen Lang’s.

However, none of them could be considered great calligraphers. At most, they were good-looking.

The monarch’s words were extremely noble, and he wished every word had been sculpted.

On the other hand, Shen Lang’s handwriting was crazy. When he was patient, his handwriting was even more exquisite than the emperor’s. When he was impatient, his handwriting could not even be called crazy grass. Half of the ten words had to be guessed, as if he was scribbling.

In short, the calligraphy skills of this father and son were about the same, and neither of them could reach the next level!

Of course, no one dared to tell the truth. They all bragged about the emperor’s calligraphy, which made ning yuanxian feel smug. He really felt that he was a calligraphy master, so he especially liked to give others words.

On your mother’s birthday, I’ll give you a piece of calligraphy.

Your family’s Prince is getting married? I’ll give you a piece of calligraphy.

Your family has only had one son for three generations, and now you have a grandson? Come, come, come, I’ll bestow you with a piece of calligraphy.

Did the monarch favor these officials so much? Not necessarily, he just felt that his handwriting was good and liked to show off.

Some of the people who received it hung it up happily. After all, this represented the emperor’s favor.

However, some old ministers who were the pillars of the country were very helpless, such as the Prime Minister, Lord Zhu, who was a calligraphy master with extremely high attainments.

Moreover, the king had deep feelings for him. No matter what his family did, he had to bestow words to him.

You have to hang up the calligraphy that the monarch gave you, or you’re looking down on the monarch.

As a result, the entire Hall was filled with ning yuanxian’s calligraphy. There were dozens of them.

When others saw this, they would have thought that Minister Zhu’s calligraphy appreciation level was so low. Why was the room full of such gorgeous calligraphy?

However, the monarch still felt good about himself and often went to the hall of the Zhu family to appreciate his own calligraphy. He also said that calligraphy was also a stroke of luck and that he could not write many good words now. If he wanted to see it, he could only come to the Zhu family. The Zhu family really benefited.

Zhu Xiang felt very helpless. He actually wanted to say,”since Your Majesty likes it so much, you can take them all back.”

Of course, he could only say this in his heart.

Minister Zhu had a deep relationship with ning yuanxian. Ning yuanxian was not only his student, but also his son-in-law. He had watched him grow up. On the one hand, ning yuanxian was his King. On the other hand, ning yuanxian was like a nephew to Minister Zhu. Ning yuanxian was his hope.

Every time he saw ning yuanxian being so narcissistic, Minister Zhu was both helpless and amused.

send this piece of calligraphy to Shen Lang as well. Go and slap his face. Ning yuanxian said.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” The great eunuch Li Sun thought helplessly.

At this moment, little eunuch li rushed in and said in a trembling voice, ” “Your Majesty, Wu Wang is here.”

The king of Yue, ning yuanxian, was stunned. He suspected that he had heard wrong.

Did this person not follow the rules? Even if the Emperor came to visit, he would first send a diplomatic mission to receive them in advance, and then be invited by the other party’s Emperor, and then choose an auspicious day to visit.

You, Wu Qi, came over just like that?

Do you think this is a market?

However, despite his surprise, ning yuanxian was still very happy, even full of surprise. This was a great diplomatic victory.

Under normal circumstances, it was the monarch of the lower state who visited the higher state.

Twenty years ago, after the incident in Yanzhou, the Wu Kingdom suffered a great defeat. However, the old king of Wu did not take the initiative to visit the Yue Kingdom. He still built a high platform on the border and the two kings held negotiations.

The result of the negotiation was, of course, humiliating to the Wu State.

The Wu State had ceded nine counties.

Overjoyed, ning yuanxian instinctively summoned all the officials in the palace, and even gathered an Army of tens of thousands. First, he wanted to show off King Wu’s might, and second, he wanted to witness this glorious diplomatic victory.

…………………

The young king Wu was already mentally prepared to be humiliated.

Ning yuanxian’s vanity was well known. The failure of the border hunting competition had made him lose face.

Now that the Yue country had won a great victory, and Wu Wang had a favor to ask of him, he naturally allowed ning yuanxian to do as he pleased.

Wu Qi had come to see the king of Yue with the mentality of enduring hardships to taste courage.

Since ning yuanxian was so vain and prideful, then Wu Wang might as well be satisfied to the extreme.

I, the Emperor of a country, have personally come to compromise with you, so you, ning yuanxian, should not be insatiable.

The young king Wu had already decided that he would do anything that would not humiliate him.

For example, being ridiculed by tens of thousands of people in Yue country.

Another example was to personally strike the king of Yue.

Or he would personally pour wine and tea for the king of Yue.

He, Wu Qi, could lower his attitude to the lowest.

But when it came to negotiations, he would definitely not give in.

The compensation is fine, but it must not exceed 500000 gold coins.

They definitely could not cede land, not even half a County.

Wu Qi had already decided that if ning yuanxian did not agree, he would not leave the palace.

I can even stay here for a few months.

Anyway, I’m the Emperor of a country. You can’t drive me away, right?

However, after entering the king of Yue’s Palace, everything was different from what King Wu had imagined.

In a hurry, the king of Yue, ning yuanxian, had a solemn welcome ceremony, but there was absolutely no intention of bullying.

The king of Yue, ning yuanxian, personally came out to welcome the hundreds of honor guards and more than a dozen important ministers.

After Wu Wang recovered from his shock, he quickly stepped forward and bowed, ” “Nephew Wu Qi pays his respects to the king of Yue.”

However, before he could bow, he was stopped by ning yuanxian.

Wu Wang, you must not. Although you are younger than me by a generation, you and I are both rulers of a country. We can only be considered as equals. it’s really funny, ” ning yuanxian said. King Wu’s name is the same as my uncle Wang’s.

The King of Wu was called Wu Qi, and ning yuanxian’s uncle was called ning Qi.

“Wu Qi pays his respects to brother Wang.” Wu Wang immediately bowed again.

Ning yuanxian said, ” good, my brother is truly a young hero. Two days ago, I sent an envoy to invite you to pay a visit to the State of Yue. My brother, you’ve come today. I’m really overjoyed. How was your journey? ”

Wu Wang replied, ” I’ve just received brother Wang’s invitation. I’ve been looking forward to meeting you again. Thank you for your concern. The journey has been smooth.

Damn it, when did ning yuanxian invite Wu Qi?

And listening to the conversation between these two, it was as if Wu Wang had come from thousands of miles away.

In fact, it’s only a dozen miles. Don’t you know if it’s easy to walk?

“Brother, you’re a guest. Please go first!” The Prince of Yue said.

Wu Wang took a step back. you’re my brother. Of course, you go first.

The two of them continued to decline humbly. Finally, the Prince of Yue held the arm of the Prince of Wu and said,”Since that’s the case, let’s go together!”

After that, the two kings entered the palace!

………………

Next, the king of Yue held a welcome banquet for the King of Wu.

The two of them only talked about poetry and songs, not about state affairs.

The King of Wu praised Shen Lang’s talent in poetry a few times, while the king of Yue belittled Shen lang a few times.

It was as if two parents were chatting.

Parent a kept praising Parent B’s son. your child is really amazing. He got first in the class.

no, no, I only got 98 points. I don’t know how I lost the other two points. I’m really like a pig’s brain. I’m not promising.

In short, the guests were happy at this banquet.

Then, the two of them changed to another Palace and changed into solemn clothes that were not meant for the court.

The negotiations officially began.

There were very few people. Ning yuanxian and Wu Qi only brought two people.

King Wu was silent for a moment,”brother, how can we get Bian Xiao to retreat?.”

He was very straightforward.

“What can King Wu offer?” ning yuanxian asked.

Wu Wang said: ” make a public apology. From now on, Yue country will be my brother and Wu country will be my brother. The war reparations will be 200000 gold coins.

Ning yuanxian did not say anything, but the minister of rites of Yue State sneered.

How ridiculous, you can even come up with such conditions?

King Wu, you’ve taken over the Leizhou islands of Yue State and sent 30000 troops to attack our raging tide city without declaring war.

Not only that, but you also personally led 30000 troops to the South and approached Shangye city, as if you were going to have a decisive battle with my country, forcing His Majesty to personally lead the Army.

Fortunately, our Yue country is strong and blessed by the heavens. Otherwise, I’m afraid we would’ve been destroyed.

If the one who lost this time was our Yue country, I’m afraid that you, Wu Wang, would demand an exorbitant price. Not only would you want us to acknowledge that Leizhou archipelago belongs to you, but you would also have to cede at least five counties.

Now that your Wu country has lost, you’re only willing to pay 200000?

How ridiculous, was there such a good thing in the world?

In your dreams!

The minister of rites of Yue country laughed and was about to start scolding.

However, ning yuanxian raised his hand.

“King Wu, I don’t want you to pay any compensation, nor do I want you to give up your land. Bian Xiao can withdraw his troops.” Ning yuanxian said.

“Then what does brother Wang want?” Wu Wang asked in surprise.

an Alliance, ” ning yuanxian said. from now on, the Wu and Yue countries will be brothers. No one is older or younger; they are all equal.

Wu Wang was shocked.

This result was even more difficult for him to imagine.

But he soon understood.

The main enemy of Yue State was not Wu State, but Chu State.

After two defeats, Wu country had temporarily lost its threat to Yue country.

However, the Chu country was still overbearing.

With the current situation, it would be easy to form an alliance between Wu and Chu to resist the Yue.

Therefore, ning yuanxian cut in ahead of time.

He didn’t want the King of Wu to give up his land, nor did he want compensation. He only wanted an Alliance agreement.

In fact, this Alliance agreement might not even be true.

King Wu, ” ning yuanxian said. I know that you and your son have always regarded the incident in Yan Zhou as a great humiliation. There’s not a day that you don’t want to take back the nine counties, not a day that you don’t want to wash away the shame. Brother, you don’t have to be so patient. Let us join forces and defeat Chu first. Then, you can take away the nine counties from Chu.”

Then, ning yuanxian brought a map and pointed at the territory of Chu State, ” “Brother, circle out the nine counties you want on this map.

His words were so overbearing that it seemed as if he had already defeated Chu State and was going to split the spoils immediately.

Wu Wang fell into silence.

Of course, he knew that the so-called Alliance agreement was fake and was just a political stance.

As for the division of Chu between the two countries, that was even more nonsense.

To Yue country, the most important thing now was to quell the chaos in Nan ou country, properly govern Tianxi province, and recuperate.

Yue country needed a peaceful external environment.

This was the so-called ‘quit while you’re ahead’.

The current state of Yue was not in a period of expansion.

Moreover, the proposal of the king of Yue did provide a possibility for Wu and Yue to join forces to attack Chu State.

Of course, he was still very far away from this goal. He didn’t know how many changes would happen in the process, but at least it was a good start.

When the king of Yue had the upper hand, he had displayed a very high attitude, as if he was going to subdue the enemy without fighting.

The king of Yue needed a stable external environment, so did the King of Wu.

This time, he had experienced such a huge failure, and he needed to recover from the aftermath.

Moreover, the transition of power in the country might also have some turbulence.

If they had won this time, everything would have been fine, but they had lost.

It would take a very long time for King Wu to regain his supreme authority.

The Yue country needed to recuperate, so did the Wu country.

Therefore, Wu Wang only thought for a moment before he extended his hand and said, ” “Brother Wang, from now on, the Wu and Yue countries will be brothers.”

“From now on, the Wu and Yue countries will help each other!” Ning yuanxian said as he held Wu Qi’s hand.

The two kings were really Swift and decisive.

They quickly signed the Treaty.

Of course, when Wu Wang saw the cover of the covenant, he cursed in his heart.

Because this Alliance agreement was one in the open and one in the dark.

On the surface, the Alliance agreement was to form a Brotherhood between the Wu and Yue countries.

The secret was called the secret agreement between Wuyue and Chu.

King Wu could imagine that even though it was a secret agreement, as long as it was signed within a month, it was guaranteed that it would spread throughout the world.

Sigh, just sign whatever you want.

The King of Wu helplessly signed the so-called secret agreement between Wu Yue and Chu.

This kind of show-off operation had also happened many times on earth.

For example, during World War II, Germany and the Soviet Union had even signed a secret covenant, but they still ended up in a fight.

The next day!

The Wu and Yue countries built a high platform on the border. In front of the civil and military officials and tens of thousands of soldiers, the two emperors signed the “Wu Yue Alliance treaty” and then announced it to the world.

The Wu and Yue countries had officially formed an alliance.

The world was shocked!

It was too unexpected and too sudden.

&Nbsp; weren’t you fighting to the death just now? now, you’re actually so good to each other. You guys changed so quickly.

The messenger of Chu received the announcement from the two countries before he even arrived in Yue State. He almost vomited blood.

Half of the envoy Group returned to Chu country and requested for King Chu’s decree. The other half continued on their way to Yue country.

However, the future of this diplomatic mission was really worrying.

Ning yuanxian had acted too quickly.

Originally, Chu State wanted to join hands with Wu State and ruthlessly extort Yue State in diplomatic affairs.

Who knew that ning yuanxian would directly cut him off.

As the saying goes, what you can’t get on the battlefield can’t be obtained on the negotiation table.

This time, Chu State was definitely in trouble.

………………

On the third night after Shen lang left the White Night Prefecture, he received his first guest.

The Prince of the Earl of Wu an, Xue Pan, and there was also a stunning beauty by his side.

The reason why she was called a little beauty was because she looked to be at most seventeen years old. She was very shy and always kept her head down.

Shen lang looked at Xue Pan.

It was as if this person had a different face. He looked at Shen lang with an intimate gaze as if the two of them were close friends.

A few months ago, Xue Li went to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to break off the engagement.

Xue Pan had followed the yin Yuan Association to force the Jin family into a corner.

Not only that, but twenty years ago, the Earl of Jin Yu had borrowed one million gold coins and hired an Army of ten thousand men and an entire fleet to encircle and annihilate the pirate Qiu Tianwei. In the end, the entire Army was annihilated, bringing disaster to the Jin family.

In terms of enmity with the Jin clan, the Xue clan was even greater than the SU clan.

Furthermore, the Xue family owed the Jin family a huge debt of gratitude. The Xue family had betrayed them without any reason. The most shameless betrayal had almost killed the Jin family.

As for the SU family, it was only when Mulan broke off the engagement that the two families officially fell out.

However, the reason why Shen lang sought revenge from the SU family first …

One reason was that su jianting had attacked the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and injured his mother-in-law.

The second reason was that the monarch hated su Nan.

But the Xue family was different.

The Earl of Wu an, Xue che, was the king’s most trusted aide, and he was in charge of intelligence matters in the world.

Yan nanfei was also a member of the Xue clan. On the surface, he was one of the six grandmasters of the State of Yue and the sect master of the southern sea Sword sect.

However, the southern sea Sword sect seemed to be a branch of the black water platform.

In addition, the Xue family and the Zhong family were absolute allies, and third Prince Ning Qi was also present. The Xue family didn’t appear to be famous on the surface, but they were actually very powerful and deeply rooted.

The SU clan was powerful on the surface, but it was also powerful in reality.

But the Xue family kept a low profile, like an iceberg. They could only see a little bit of the water, and the rest of it was under the water.

Shen lang had to destroy the Xue family.

However, in terms of difficulty, it might be slightly higher than the SU clan.

Previously, Xue Pan had been cold and arrogant in front of the Jin family.

And today, although his face was a little reserved, it was full of smiles.

“Congratulations, brother-in-law, for your immortal contribution.” Xue Pan said.

Shen lang smiled and did not say anything.

“Younger brother-in-law, you will definitely pass by lang County on your trip to the capital, right?” Xue Pan asked.

That was for sure.

At this moment, third Prince Ning Qi was leading thirty thousand troops to defend lang County. He had originally intended to block the SU Nan rebel army.

There was definitely no need for that now, as the SU clan’s rebel army had been completely annihilated.

Shen lang nodded.

“His Royal Highness the third Prince wishes to invite you to a meal, so he specially sent me here to invite you,” Xue Pan said.

“Must I go?” Shen lang asked.

“Of course not, it’s entirely up to brother-in-law’s own will. It’s just that His Highness the third Prince is really thirsty for talents,” Xue Pan said.

The last time when Shen Lang’s diplomatic mission was successful, the third Prince had also sent people to win him over, but his attitude was very perfunctory.

This time, they were very sincere, sending Xue Pan, the true direct descendant.

Xue Pan said, ” younger brother-in-law, I know that what I did before was not glorious. But there is no other way. Our Xue family has to completely obey His Majesty’s will. We will do whatever His Majesty asks us to do.

Then twenty years ago, when your Xue family betrayed my Jin family, was it also the emperor’s will?

“Of course I know that it’s hard for brother-in-law to let go of my Xue family, but take it slow. There’s one thing that brother-in-law might need to know.”

“Is it about ku Huanhuan’s assassination of my father-in-law?” Shen lang asked.

“That’s right, then does younger brother-in-law know the true identity of bitter joy?” Xue Pan said.

“I’d like to hear the details,” Shen lang said.

his name is Zhuo Yichen, ” Xue Pan said. he’s Zhuo Zhaoyan’s adopted brother. That’s why he’s the crown prince’s man. It was the crown prince’s will to assassinate Marquis Jin Zhuo.

“There’s such a thing?” Shen lang exclaimed.

“It’s absolutely true,” Xue Pan said.

Shen lang trembled and said, ” this is too scary. This is simply shocking. Ku Huanhuan is actually working for the Crown Prince. This news is too shocking. The Crown Prince actually sent people to assassinate my father-in-law? From now on, he and I are irreconcilable.”

“Younger brother-in-law Shen, both of us have a common enemy, why don’t we stay in a trench first?” Xue Pan said.

Then, Xue Pan said, ” I know that my younger sister, Xue Li, is not sensible and has brought great harm to the Jin family. However, the marriage between the Xue family and the Jin family can still continue. Mengmeng, come over.

The little beauty walked over.

“This is my younger sister, Xue Meng. She’s my younger sister from the legal wife and my father’s favorite daughter.”

Shen lang looked at the girl carefully.

In terms of looks and gentleness, the girl in front of him had indeed surpassed Xue Li.

Xue Pan said, ” Prince Jin mucong is talented and famous throughout Yue country. He is a match made in heaven with my sister, Xue Meng. How about we let the two of them become husband and wife? ”

Shen lang looked very tempted and smiled. “Miss Xue Meng, Jin mucong is not as handsome as I am. Are you really willing to marry him?”

These words were truly shameless.

“I’ve already secretly visited brother fatty,” Xue Meng said in a low voice,”I’m Chenchen, I like him quite a bit.”

that’s great, ” Shen lang said. however, I can’t make the decision. I have to report this to my in-laws.

“Of course, of course,” Xue Pan replied. The third Prince is waiting for you. Brother-in-law, you must pay him a visit when you pass by lang County.”

“I’ll try, I’ll try!” Shen lang said.

“Then I’ll take my leave,” Xue Pan said.

“Brother Xue, take care!” Shen lang said.

“Brother-in-law Shen lang, goodbye!” The beautiful lady said.

“Goodbye, sister Xue Meng,” Shen lang said gently.

The little beauty waved at Shen lang again.

Xue Pan left with his sister.

………………

The next day, Shen lang continued his journey!

That night, he booked the entire resting point.

Even though he had booked the entire resting point, the officials in the resting point had treated him as if he didn’t exist. They avoided him like a venomous snake.

But this time, every time he passed by a place, the local officials would come to flatter him.

Even before they reached the resting point, the officials had already come to welcome them. Their solicitousness and ingratiateness were something that even the governor could not enjoy.

After Shen lang had his dinner, he returned to his room.

The sword King, li qianqiu, was staying next door. Before Shen lang entered the room, the sword King said in a low voice, ” “There’s someone in your room, and it’s a woman.”

Shen lang was stunned.

Could it be my Mulan baby?

He pushed the door open.

As expected, a woman was standing with her back facing him. Her back view was enchanting.

“Young master Shen is here? I’ve been waiting for a long time.” The woman turned around.

She was the crown prince’s mistress, Zhuo Zhaoyan.

“Xue Pan has already gone to see young master Shen.” “But I believe that young master Shen did not agree to anything,” Zhuo Zhaoyan said gently.

“Miss Zhuo, what’s your intention?” Shen lang asked.

“His Highness the Crown Prince admires young master Shen very much,” Zhuo Zhaoyan said. I know that young master Shen and his Highness the Crown Prince had some misunderstandings before, but misunderstandings can be resolved, can’t they?”

Shen lang said, ” ku Huanhuan tried to assassinate my father-in-law. Can such a huge misunderstanding be resolved? ” The Crown Prince regards my wife Jin Mulan as his exclusive property. Can such a huge misunderstanding be resolved?”

“Of course you can.” Zhuo Zhaoyan said gently, ” I’ll represent the crown prince’s apology to you. I’ll present it to you. Young master Shen, please don’t disappoint this kind gesture!
