Translator: 549690339
(Congratulations to chekun Pao for becoming the new alliance master of this book. He’s shedding tears of gratitude and begging for monthly votes.)
The entire Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was already spotless.
The haze of the past had dissipated, and now it had completely become a sea of joy.
The dead had already passed away.
Although uncle Xuanwu was not there, su Peipei, the Countess, decided to make up for the new year.
All the servants and maids in the palace of the Earl cheered.
They happily stuck red paper and set off firecrackers.
The Spring Festival not long ago had been too depressing because of the war.
Now, he could finally go all out and have fun.
Furthermore, every servant and maid would receive a red packet.
Everyone had three red packets.
The Earl of Xuanwu and his wife, Shen lang and his wife, and Shen Wan and his wife.
Shen Lang’s parents had been living in a huge mansion outside the castle and had more than ten servants.
In the end, su Peipei insisted that the old couple also give red packets to all the servants in the palace of the Earl.
The meaning was clear. In the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, the two of you were also masters.
As for the money for the red packet?
Shen lang had a lot of money.
............
The servants in Shen Lang’s courtyard were all dressed up. They were all wearing beautiful silk jackets.
“It’s snowing, it’s snowing.”
Bing-er suddenly cheered.
The maidservants looked up and saw that it was indeed snowing.
Moreover, the snow had come down very suddenly.
The weather was clear not long ago, and there were no snow seeds.
Suddenly, heavy snow began to fall.
The snowflakes were as big as goose feathers, and they fell from the sky. It was a beautiful sight.
Then, all the servant girls rushed out and happily played around in the courtyard.
The snow was even heavier in the previous round.
However, the palace of the Earl was in great danger, so no one was in the mood to enjoy the snow.
It was snowing heavily this time, so he could have a good time.
An elderly lady said as she looked at the snow outside while she was embroidering a Kasaya on Shen Lang’s shoes.
“This snow won’t last long.”
It was freezing cold outside, but Shen Lang’s room was as warm as spring.
The fragrance was pleasant.
Mulan was the most beautiful Mulan.
Shen lang was the most reckless Shen lang.
Even though it was daytime, red candles were lit in the room.
The bedsheets and blankets were all red. They had been used for the wedding night.
The injuries on Shen Lang’s body had already healed.
Therefore, Mulan had to fulfill her promise.
In beautiful words, Mulan wanted to make up for Shen Lang’s wedding night.
This was the first time he had seen such a beautiful Mulan.
“Wifey, don’t pity me just because I’m a peerless handsome man, come!”
“Sure!” Mulan replied.
Instantly, the air was filled with flames and wine.
It was like a raging fire.
It was too beautiful to take in!
It was like the snow outside, flying freely.
Ten minutes later, the snow stopped.
Bing ‘er looked at the sky and said, ” how come it is so fast? how come the snow stopped when it just started? ”
“Yes, the clouds in the sky have opened.”
“Aiya, the sun is already out.”
that’s too fast. How can there be snow like this? ”
The Auntie who embroidered the Kasaya for Shen Lang’s shoes said, ” I told you, it hasn’t been snowing for long. There are no snow seeds or clouds. It’ll be gone in a while.
..................
In the Imperial Palace of the capital.
The monarch’s anger was like this inexplicable snow, fierce and severe.
The entire Hall was covered in dark clouds, with lightning and thunder.
No one dared to breathe too loudly.
No one dared to make a move.
No one dared to fart, and if they did, they would hold it back.
All of the palace maids and eunuchs felt their necks cold and itchy, as if their heads would be removed at any time.
The snow continued for three minutes.
It stopped!
The monarch suddenly smiled. I’m a little hungry. Go and get a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
“Yes!”
The head eunuch left without a trace.
A moment later, he brought over a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
There were about nine thumb-sized balls.
The monarch would get sick of anything he ate, so nine pills was the most.
If there was too much, he would have to finish it, and when he got tired of it, he would be angry.
After he finished eating, it was just right, but he still wanted more.
“Jin mucong, the Crown Prince of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, how is he in the Directorate?” The monarch said.
“He’s a simple-minded person,” the head eunuch said.
The monarch said,”he has never left his home since he was young. It’s not easy for him to study alone in the capital.” Remember, it must be hot and with rice wine. I know that they have rice wine in their glutinous rice balls.”
The head eunuch smiled. Your Majesty, you have a good memory. I heard that not only rice wine is needed, but dried Osmanthus is also needed.
The monarch laughed. then add more. This child is an honest man. Don’t let those people from the Imperial College bully him.
“Yes, no one is more merciful than Your Majesty,” the head eunuch said.
The king’s anger was like the inexplicable snow in the sky.
They came quickly and left even faster.
He was really unpredictable.
..................
In the afternoon.
The governor of Tiannan province, Zhu Rong, appeared in the palace.
“I’m guilty, I’m guilty!”
Zhu Rong knelt on the ground, not moving.
“What crime is the governor guilty of? this is clearly a great victory.” Chou Tianwei had gathered above the eastern sea region and had no regard for the law. The people of the world had been suffering for a long time. If it wasn’t for the war of the South, I would have sent my Army to kill him. Now that Zhang Ji and uncle Xuanwu have joined forces to exterminate this thief, it’s a good thing.”
Zhu Rong laid his entire body on the ground and said with a trembling voice, ” “Yes!”
The monarch said, ” uncle Xuanwu’s Memorial is here as well. He said that he is willing to cut 2000 private troops. He didn’t mention his own contributions at all and only mentioned Zhang Ji’s great contributions. This man is a gentleman. You’ve gained a new piece of land for our Yue country. From now on, our Eastern Sea will be at peace.”
Zhu Rong closed his eyes in pain and said,”Yes.”
“I heard that Zhang Ji’s son died in the battle of raging tide city?” the monarch asked.
“Yes,” Zhu Rong said.
The monarch said, ” it’s a pity that a young talent has died so young. Send an imperial edict to Zhang Ji and comfort him. Zhang Jin will be conferred the title of Eagle general.”
“Yes,” Zhu Rong replied.
Zhang Ji and uncle Xuanwu joined forces to exterminate the pirate Qiu Tianwei, ” the monarch said. they have made great contributions. His mother is conferred the title of third-rank wife of imperial decree.
“Yes!” Zhu Rong said.
the monarch said, ” count of jin hai, tang lun, colluded with the pirates and invaded the country. he has no respect for the monarch. he is disloyal and unfilial. ” ask the black water tower to cooperate with zhang ji and exterminate his family.”
“Yes!”
............
The governor of Nujiang, Zhang Ji, and the thousand-man commander of the black water tower rushed into the palace of the Earl of Jinhai with thousands of Warriors!
Shakedown!
Annihilate the clan!
Apart from Tang Lun, almost no one else in the family knew about this.
Those who dared to disobey would be killed without mercy.
The king gave an order,
strip the tang family of all their titles.
He took back all the fiefs of the Tang Clan.
Disband all private armies.
No matter if it was male or female, old or young, more than seven hundred people from the Tang Clan were loaded into the prison van and escorted into the capital.
The Crown Prince, Tang Yun, was exonerated because he had done a meritorious deed in reporting the incident.
However, because he failed to stop his father from committing a heinous crime, he was deprived of all his achievements.
At this point!
The palace of the count of Jinhai, which had been passed down for more than 300 years, was destroyed!
The Tang family was no longer in the list of Yue country’s nobles!
............
As for the governor, Zhang Ji, he had received three edicts from the monarch.
The first decree praised Zhang san’s efforts in exterminating the Pirates, Qiu Tianwei. Hearing that his son, Zhang Jin, had died in battle, the Emperor was very sad and conferred Zhang Jin the title of Eagle general.
The second decree conferred Zhang Ji’s mother with the title of a third-rank imperial concubine.
For the third edict, Zhang Ji had made great achievements in Nujiang County. He had promoted the new policies very well and had made great contributions. As such, Zhang Ji was removed from his position as governor of Nujiang and was instead appointed as the right physician of the Censorate.
Each of the three edicts was more important than the last.
From the looks of it, Zhang Ji seemed to have become a rising star in the political scene, causing countless people to be envious and jealous.
Generally speaking, there was only one official at the Censorate, a rank three official.
However, there were times when a meritorious official needed to be rewarded, but there was no particularly good position for the time being. Thus, they would specially get the right physician of the Imperial Censorate as a transitional use.
This was a lower third rank official position.
Zhang Ji had been promoted from rank 4 to rank 3, becoming a Central high-ranking official in Yue State.
It was really hot.
In an instant, countless people came to visit, and the place was like a market.
............
In the study of the palace of the Earl of Jinhai, there were only Zhang Ji and Tang Lun.
“Duke Zhang, you’re on the rise now while I, Tang Lun, am facing a calamity. The fate of the world is truly unpredictable,” Tang Lun said.
Zhang Ji laughed bitterly and did not say anything.
“Can I commit suicide?” Tang Lun asked.
“No,” Zhang Ye said, shaking his head.
“You can’t even commit suicide?” Tang Lun asked with tears streaming down his face.
“No way!” Zhang Ye said.
Of course not!
Thunder, rain, and dew were all Jun’s grace. What would it be like if you, Tang Lun, committed suicide?
Wouldn’t that make you look like you’ve been wronged, and you’d die with hatred?
Of course, he had to be punished and executed.
“Duke Zhang, my son Tang Yun has no one to rely on now. Please take care of him on account of the fact that we once fought side by side,” Tang Lun said.
Zhang Ji smiled bitterly and did not say anything.
“Lord Tang, please be on your way.” Zhang Ye said.
Then, the Warriors of the black water unit came in, changed Tang Lun into prison clothes, shackled him, and escorted him into the prison carriage.
Two hours later!
More than 1000 Warriors of the black water tower and 1000 soldiers of the Supreme Court escorted more than 700 prison carts out of Jinhai city and headed for the capital.
No matter if it was male or female, old or young, the Tang clan’s direct descendants, close or near, they were all captured in one go.
Instantly, the sound of crying shook the sky!
Countless commoners gathered on the streets.
“Alright!”
“Good catch!”
“The Tang Clan has committed heinous crimes and should have been arrested long ago.”
“The monarch is wise!”
Countless pieces of mud and rotten vegetable leaves fell on the prison van.
Tang Lun, the count of Jin hai, was covered in filth, but he didn’t move and let the people vent.
............
On a building.
Zhang Chunhua’s voice trembled when she saw this. “Father, is Tang Lun that infuriated?”
Zhang Ji shook his head. although he doesn’t love the people like his children, he wouldn’t blame the people of Jinhai city. The Jinshan Island has huge profits every year. The taxes on the Tang family’s fief are not high.
“Then why do these people hate him so much?” Zhang Chunhua asked.
Zhang Ye said,”the human heart is like water, how deep is it?” The hearts of the people were like smoke, how chaotic. Since ancient times, the human heart has always been the most unreliable thing. When the people see important figures suffer, it’s only natural for them to gloat over their misfortune.”
Zhang Chunhua said,”it’s really a relief to see the Tang clan’s destruction!” Fortunately, the king’s eyes are bright and he knows that you have done a great service, so he has issued three edicts in a row to reward father.”
Zhang Ye smiled and did not say anything.
“Everyone’s talking about the position of governor of Yan Province, and father’s basically guaranteed to take it. It’s just that you need to transition to the position of imperial censor doctor you. Your daughter here wishes father a high promotion.”
Zhang Ji looked at his daughter with tender eyes and suddenly said,”Chun Hua, how’s your studies going?”
not bad, ” Zhang Chunhua said. other than throwing moon breeze in the toilet, I’m pretty good at other books.
I’ve asked Governor Zhu Rong to send you to the sky-Sea Pavilion to be a scholar’s attendant. You’ll study there for a year or so. Is that alright? ” Zhang Ye said.
“Father, why?” Zhang Chunhua’s expression changed drastically. What’s going to happen?”
Zhang Ye said,”go on, go on!” Since you were young, you’ve never been obedient for small matters, but you’ve never disobeyed for big matters. This is a big matter!”
“I don’t want to leave my father’s side.” Zhang Chunhua’s tears gushed out.
Zhang Ye said: ” go on then. Go now. We’ll leave immediately!
............
Dozens of Warriors from the Blackwater tower rushed into the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
The Countess, su Peipei, received the chiliarch of the Blackwater station.
“Countess, I heard that the third son of the Earl of Jinhai, Tang Yan, is in your residence?” the Tang family has committed a rebellion, ” Qian Hu said. they colluded with the Pirates to invade your family’s Jinshan Island. The king is furious, so he wants to arrest the entire Tang family.
Su Peipei said, ” thank you for your kindness. Tang Yan did come to my house before. However, my Lord, you know that he has a great enmity with our family. He once had a battle with my daughter, Jin Mulan, so we directly expelled him.”
“It’s true,” the thousand-man commander of the Heishui station said with a frown.
of course it’s true, ” su Peipei said. why would I cover for the enemy? ”
For a moment, the thousand-man commander of the black water unit had nothing to say.
Su Peipei said, ” it’s been more than 20 days since the Spring Festival, but as long as it’s not the first month of the Lunar New Year, it’s still considered the new year. Please accept these red packets as money for tea. You’re still working hard for the country on the New Year’s Eve.
A servant came forward with a plate of gold coins.
The thousand-man commander of the black water unit quickly stood up and said, ” “I don’t dare, I don’t dare!”
In the end, they did not accept the gold and left.
..................
In the book collection Vault of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Shen lang was writing furiously while the martial arts fanatic Tang Yan was in a daze. Occasionally, he would use his fingers as a sword and stab out. Then, he would reflect on how he did it and how he should adjust and change.
Finally, Shen lang had completely deciphered the ancient manual that the sword King Li qianqiu had given him.
There were over 200 pages.
The name of this sword technique was “there’s snow under the sky.”
Shen lang was so focused on analyzing and returning the paper to its original state that he did not have the time to understand it in depth.
However, from the name, it didn’t seem particularly impressive.
In fact, no one would know if any secret manual was awesome or not before it was analyzed and cultivated.
For example, the meteoric sword technique.
He was unrivaled in the world after the first sword King mastered it.
Only then did this set of sword techniques become world-famous and overpowered.
After all, these were ancient secret manuals that had not been practiced.
It was hard to say if he was awesome or not.
This was a bit like stone gambling. After cutting it open, it could be a priceless ice seed, or it could be a worthless glutinous seed.
However, the sword King Li qianqiu was very powerful. He could tell whether this secret manual was powerful or not just by comprehending a little.
For li qianqiu to take a fancy to this manual, it must be quite powerful.
here, it’s all analyzed. Take it away!
After Tang Yan took it, he left directly.
There was no farewell, no thanks.
When he saved the Countess, su Peipei, he did not need anyone’s gratitude.
Even now, he still didn’t know that something had happened to the palace of the Earl of Jinhai.
“Hold on!” “I’ll give you a set of clothes,” Shen lang said.
“Alright!” Tang Yan nodded.
After a while, Tang Yan put on the clothes that Shen lang gave him.
The clothes were so strange. Why was his face covered as well?
Tang Yan left!
the Masters of the black water station will definitely find him, ” su Peipei said. will they send people to catch him? ”
Shen lang shook his head and said, ” that won’t happen. It’s rare for people to be confused when it comes to Tang Yan. If the Warriors of the black water tower went to catch him, wouldn’t they be wronged if they were treated as robbers?”
“Didn’t you tell him to go to the sky-Sea Pavilion?” su Peipei asked.
Shen lang said, ” he won’t go. Other than li qianqiu, he won’t listen to anyone. He will definitely go back to the sword Island. However, I left a letter for senior Sword King and asked him to send Tang Yan to sky-Sea Pavilion to avoid trouble.”
Seeing Tang Yan’s disappearing back, the Countess su Peipei said, ” I don’t know why, but I suddenly miss Jin mucong when I see Tang Yan’s back.
“Me too,” Shen lang said, stunned.
“It’s been more than a month, and I’ve almost forgotten about him,” the Countess said.
Ugh!
The Countess asked,”lang ‘er, what does the king mean?” I really don’t understand.”
Shen lang sighed too.
This monarch was really fickle in his emotions and was too good at causing trouble.
The Countess said,”when will he give the decree to our family? when will he give our family the title of raging tide city?” Only then can it be considered a great success, and the dust has settled!”
“Soon!” Shen lang said.
However, this monarch was truly hard to fathom!
..................
The Zhang family’s old residence!
Zhang Ji had stepped down from his post as Governor and was about to enter the capital to serve as the right physician of the Censorate.
Almost all of Nujiang County’s influential officials were present to send him off.
All the officials shed tears to express their reluctance.
Countless bootlickers flew around.
Zhang Ji’s posture was like he was on fire.
It was too red.
It was too popular!
It was like a Golden Path in front of him.
Many officials had even changed the way they addressed him in advance.
If he had some moral integrity, he would even be called Doctor Zhang.
And those without moral integrity would directly call him Governor Zhang.
Because in their view, the so-called right doctor of the Censorate was just a transition. The position of governor of Yan Zhou was almost certain.
Zhang Ye also accepted everyone’s flattery with a smile.
When he was the governor, he rarely smiled and never accepted any invitations. He was a cold-faced and ruthless official.
But now, they seemed to be very intimate and concerned about each other.
As a result, many officials were even more excited, and even the words ‘Department Zhang’ were mentioned.
What he meant was that from now on, everyone would be a political group.
We’re all officials of the Zhang Department, and we only follow Lord Zhang’s lead.
Zhang Ye smiled and did not refute!
After midnight, the banquet ended.
Everyone left!
Zhang Ji went to the backyard and came to the memorial tablet of his beloved son, Zhang Jin.
His entire back was down.
All the smiles disappeared.
After a long while, Zhang San let out a beast-like roar.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
“I, Zhang Ji, have always been loyal. Why are you doing this to me?”
......
The next day, Zhang Ye rushed to the capital to take up his post!
They had not arrived yet.
Someone from the Censorate submitted a Memorial.
Zhang Ji embezzled a huge amount of ink.
The king ordered a thorough investigation.
As expected, they found out that Zhang Mo had embezzled tens of thousands of gold coins when he was the governor of Nujiang.
The monarch was furious!
Before Zhang Ji had even taken up the post of Imperial Censorate, he had already been taken down by the court of judicial review!
Escorted into the capital!
