Chapter 116

Although Lin Zhuo was marrying a wife and not marrying into the family, the wedding ceremony had to be held at Count Chingan House.

Of course, the Lin family would also hold a ceremony, but the scale would be much smaller.

This time, the person sent by Count Chingan House to the Lin family to discuss the marriage was one of Wu Youyou's uncles, named Wu Zhaoyin.

This person's status was not high, but his seniority was relatively high.

After he arrived at Xuanwu City, he was immediately received with a high standard of reception.

Not only did Lin Mo find Xu Guangyun, but he also invited Castellan Liu Wuyan.

Zhang Jin and Lin Zhuo were not present, because they were juniors, and this kind of marriage discussion could only be carried out between the elders.

Of course, the so-called discussion was completely one-sided.

After receiving the warm hospitality, that night, Wu Zhaoyin stayed at the Lin family.

The next day, before dawn, a soldier suddenly came to the Lin family, saying that Lord Lin Zhuo had something to discuss with Wu Zhaoyin.

Wu Zhaoyin was old, and his sleep was relatively light. The night before, he drank wine and recited poems, and with great difficulty, he was woken up in less than four hours. Of course, he was not happy.

However, Lin Zhuo said that he had something important to discuss, so he did not delay. After washing up, he unhappily took a car to Shioyama Chihose.

When he rushed all the way to the destination, the sky was already bright.

"What important matter does your lord have? Why did he call me here before dawn?" Wu Zhaoyin said angrily.

However, he found that the soldier who came to report the news had already disappeared.

So, he became even more angry, and directly rushed into Shioyama Chihose.

Then, he saw the incomparably eye-piercing scene in front of him.

Lin Zhuo and Wang Lian were actually entangled together, and there was not a single one of them left.

Instantly, he was completely stunned and could hardly believe his eyes.

Lin Zhuo, are you crazy?

There was nothing strange about messing around with rabbits, but you actually messed around in the military camp?

Do you still have any respect for Count Chingan House?

Do you still want your reputation? Don't you have any face?

For a moment, Wu Zhaoyin pointed at Lin Zhuo, his whole body trembling, unable to speak.

"Aiya, my eyes are going blind. I, I'm still a child, why do you want me to see this scene? "

At this moment, an exaggerated voice sounded out from the side. One could tell that it was Shen Lang, because he was putting on an act.

Shen Lang came with Jin Zhong and the others!

The scene in front of him was really like a scanning scene in a hotel.

…

Lin Zhuo's brain was about to explode.

When he first opened his eyes and saw Wang Lian's sinister smile, he was already stunned.

When he saw Wu Zhaoyin again, he really wanted to faint immediately.

This was his fiancée's uncle. Although he did not have much power in Count Chingan House, his seniority was very high, and he was a very conservative person.

"Lin Zhuo, do you still have any face for what you've done?"

Finally, Wu Zhaoyin roared.

Lin Zhuo only felt that his whole body was ice-cold, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

At this moment, he did not care about shame anymore.

His future was the most important, and his fate was the most important.

Instantly, he immediately got rid of Wang Lian's entanglement, and knelt in front of Wu Zhaoyin, saying, "Uncle, please listen to my explanation, please listen to my explanation, I was framed …"

"Sir, please uphold justice for this student." Unexpectedly, Wang Lian was faster than him. He directly knelt in front of Wu Zhaoyin, hugged his legs, and cried, "These few days, Lin Zhuo has been sending people to look for me. I thought it was something important, so I came to see him yesterday evening. Who knew that this beast would get me drunk and then molest me. "

"My Lord, although I, Wang Lian, was stripped of my scholarly title, I was also a High Scholar, and I used to be the registrar of Xuanwu City."

"Lin Zhuo, I'm going to sue you, I'm going to sue you!"

Instantly, Lin Zhuo was completely stunned.

Before he could say anything, Wang Lian actually bit him first?

Shen Lang said, "Wang Lian, although I am your enemy, I am a righteous person. But I'm a righteous person, and I can't bear to watch such a tragedy. I support you in suing him. Don't worry, someone will kill you. I will let Xuan Wu Mansion send soldiers to protect you, and you can go to Taishou Prefecture to sue them. You can go to the governor's palace to sue them. In short, they will give you an explanation. "

"If a prince breaks the law, he will be punished the same as a commoner, let alone a mere Deputy Thousand Households." Shen Lang said righteously, "I don't believe that there is no justice in this world. I don't believe that a High Scholar's dignity can be trampled on like this."

At this point, Lin Zhuo finally reacted.

He instantly looked at Chen Lang with resentment, and then he said in a hoarse voice, "Chen Lang, you tricked me?"

Shen Lang laughed coldly, "What does this have to do with me? You were the one who told me to come and apologize to you yesterday, so that you would release the innocent soldiers of Xuan Wu Mansion. I came here early in the morning, but I didn't expect to see such a horrible scene. "

Then, Shen Lang said, "Guards, protect High Scholar Wang Lian. No matter how much he offended me, he is still a distant relative of Xuan Wu Mansion. I can't let him be trampled on like this. Wang Lian, I will bring you to Taishou Prefecture to file a complaint. "

Then, Shen Lang waved his hand.

Jin Zhong and the others took out a cloak and wrapped it around Wang Lian. They were about to bring him to Taishou Prefecture to file a complaint.

"Wait!" The person who spoke up to stop them was Wu Zhaoyin from Count Chingan Mansion.

At this point, he could tell that Lin Zhuo had been framed. This was all part of Shen Lang's plan.

Shen Lang said, "Elder, what can I do for you?"

Of course, Wu Zhaoyin couldn't let Shen Lang bring Wang Lian to Taishou Prefecture to file a complaint. Although they weren't married yet, Lin Zhuo was Wu Youyou's fiancé.

If Shen Lang brought Wang Lian to file a complaint, then this matter would be blown out of proportion. It would create a huge scandal, and it would greatly damage the reputation of Count Chingan Mansion.

"What do you want?" Wu Zhaoyin asked directly.

Shen Lang said, "More than a dozen soldiers of Xuan Wu Mansion were detained by Captain Lin Zhuo for no reason. I am here to ask for them."

"In your dreams …" Lin Zhuo was about to blurt out.

But Wu Zhaoyin said directly, "Release them."

Lin Zhuo was startled, but he didn't dare to disobey. He ordered all the soldiers of Xuan Wu Mansion to be released.

After a while, these people appeared in front of Shen Lang.

Although these people looked haggard and had wounds on their bodies, at least they weren't in danger.

The most important thing was Jin Jianniang. Her clothes were still intact, and it seemed that she wasn't humiliated.

But just like before, when she saw Shen Lang, she immediately blushed and didn't have a place to put her hands and feet. It was really hard to tell that she was a powerful knight.

What a sin. It was really annoying to be so handsome because there were countless women who secretly liked you.

"Sir Lin Zhuo, goodbye." Shen Lang said, "This Wang Lian is too pitiful. I was worried that you would kill him, so I brought him along."

Next, Shen Lang took away the cavalrymen of Count House and Wang Lian.

This wasn't his style, right?

He had never suffered a loss before. Now that the cavalry of the Black Tortoise Earl Manor had been detained and even whipped, Shen Lang actually left just like that? He didn't even plan to retaliate fiercely?

This was because Shen Lang was afraid that it would ruin the more exciting story that would follow.

After having sex with Wang Lian, the terrible virus in Lin Zhuo's body still needed time to take effect. If he said he would kill your whole family, he must do it.

… …

After Shen Lang left with Wang Lian and the others.

Everyone in the hall had left without a single soul.

Lin Zhuo quickly found a piece of clothing and put it on, then knelt in front of Wu Zhaoyin.

"Uncle, I was set up by someone …"

Wu Zhaoyin directly stopped him from defending himself.

"Lin Zhuo, being framed is more shameful than you openly calling Lord Rabbit. Do you understand?"

This sentence revealed the difference in thinking between civilians and nobles.

In the eyes of nobles, it didn't matter if your private life was messy. It didn't matter even if you played with men, as long as you were powerful enough.

However, being framed by others was incompetence, which was the greatest sin.

"Why would you be framed by someone? Because you were arrogant. Since you became the husband of our Wu family, you seemed to be high in the clouds. You thought that you could do whatever you wanted because you had a big backer. Look at what you did after returning to Xuanwu City. The first thing you did was to show off to your friends. "

"If you didn't want to show off so much, how could Wang Lian have succeeded?"

Wu Zhaoyin's words could be said to hit the nail on the head.

It made Lin Zhuo recall what he had done these days. It was really shameful and uneasy.

He used to be a very shrewd person. How could he suddenly become so careless?

"Young man, your eyes should look at your feet, not at the sky. Otherwise, you will fall down."

"Of course, it's okay for young people to suffer a little setback. Now falling down can at least make you alert. At least you won't die if you fall from this height. " If you fall from a higher place in the future, you will be smashed to pieces. "

"Playing with Lord Rabbit is nothing. There are many aristocrats. The key is that you showed incompetence this time, which made us very disappointed. How can we believe that you can take on heavy responsibilities in the future? How can we believe that you can become the representative of Count Chingan House in Xuanwu City, and even in Nujiang County? "

Lin Zhuo immediately kowtowed and said, "Uncle, please teach me."

Wu Zhaoyin said, "Such a thing happened. It's not a big deal, but it's not a small one either. Whether your marriage with Youyou continues or not depends entirely on her father. Do you know what you should say when you see him? "

Lin Zhuo kowtowed again and said, "Uncle, please teach me."

Wu Zhaoyin said, "After you see the master, don't make any excuses, and don't say that you were framed. You only need to protrude four words, know shame and be brave! You desperately reflect on your own complacency and let Shen Lang take the opportunity to frame you. What you need to do is to reflect on your shortcomings and magnify them ten times, a hundred times. You need to show that you are more distressed and disappointed than anyone else. Even take the initiative to break off the engagement with Youyou, so that you still have a chance to live. "

Lin Zhuo suddenly gasped in amazement.

Count Chingan House was really amazing. This uncle did not hold any important position, but he was also an expert.

Wu Zhaoyin continued, "If this still can't change the master's mind, then you should pull out your sword and commit suicide. Say that you would rather die than tarnish the reputation of Count Chingan House. At this time, you must be decisive and ruthless. You must really cut your own throat, but remember to avoid the main artery. You have to practice with the wooden sword dozens of times. "

Lin Zhuo said, "Father-in-law is a military bigwig and has seen countless people. No matter how realistic my performance is, he will definitely see through me, right?"

Wu Zhaoyin sneered, "Of course he will see through you. How can you really commit suicide? It's precisely because he will see through you that you have to perform. "

Lin Zhuo kowtowed and said, "Please advise, Uncle."

Wu Zhaoyin said, "He can see through your act, but this also shows another characteristic of you. You are shameless enough and good at acting. What is the most important thing for a political mission? It's acting! "

"Also, your act of committing suicide was very realistic. You directly cut your own throat. What does this prove? You are ruthless enough to be so ruthless to yourself. Of course, you will be even more ruthless to your enemies. You are good at acting and so ruthless. How can the master not look at you in a different light? He will feel that you are a person worth nurturing. When that time comes, your marriage with Youyou can continue. "

An expert, truly an expert.

Lin Zhuo was full of admiration.

Who would have thought that this uncle, who was not well-known, would be so unfathomable.

Could it be that everyone in the nobility is this amazing?

Shen Lang, just you wait. When I get over this, I will definitely return the humiliation today ten times over.

At this moment, Wu Zhaoyin said lightly, "Get ready to go to Jing 'an City to meet the master. Also, tell your father to pay me more, triple! "

…

Inside Xuan Wu Mansion.

Shen Lang said, "Father-in-law, this Wu Zhaoyin looks very amazing."

Lord Count frowned slightly.

He personally felt very uncomfortable with the word 'amazing'.

However, he now understood that in this world, only others could adapt to Shen Lang. It was not Shen Lang who had to adapt to this world.

Lord Count was aware of this son-in-law's awesomeness.

Sigh!

What a pity. Why is he not my son?

But it is not a pity.

He is my son.

In the end, he is a good boy, and a very good boy.

"This Wu Zhaoyin is of course amazing." Lord Count explained, "Twenty years ago, he competed with Chingan for the position of the prince."

As soon as these words came out.

Shen Lang and Xuanwu looked at Jin Mucong not far away.

This fat otaku was still copying books.

Sigh!

Shen Lang and Xuanwu sighed at the same time.

If Lord Count had a second son, this fat otaku would have nothing to do with it.

Count Chingan House has two outstanding sons who are fighting for the position of the prince at this age, but you are still copying homework?

And you, this fat otaku, Jin Mucong, became the prince with your eyes closed. This world is really unfair.

Feeling the two eyes, Jin Mucong shrank his neck and said weakly, "Why are you looking at me?"

Shen Lang asked, "How did Wu Zhaoyin lose?"

Xuanwu said, "He couldn't have a child."

Ah!

So miserable! If he couldn't have a child, no matter how excellent he was, he couldn't be the ruler.

Then Shen Lang was a little worried about himself. He had been reading books on the wall all this time. Would his body be overdrawn and he wouldn't be able to have a child in the future?

Bah bah bah!

Jinx, jinx!

At this moment, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

Why is it noisy again?

After a while, Jin Zhong came in to report.

"Master, son-in-law, the local people of the fief are here to see you."

Did you hear that? Jin Zhong directly said master, son-in-law, there was no prince.

However, Jin Mucong didn't care at all.

When it came to important matters, he didn't wait for others to ignore him. He ignored himself first.

I don't care about your matters. My world is only copying homework.

…

Count Xuanwu and Shen Lang arrived outside the Count House's castle.

Suddenly, dozens of elders in front of them knelt down.

"Greetings, Lord Count …"

Xuanwu quickly helped the oldest local people up and said, "You are all older than me. How can you greet me like this? Get up, get up!"

Dozens of local people stood up.

Xuanwu said, "Elders, why are you here to see me?"

One of the local people said, "Thanks to the Count House's care, the mulberry leaves are growing well this year. The silkworms are not suffering from any serious diseases. This year's cocoon harvest is 20% more than last year's."

Count Xuanwu said, "That's a good thing. After selling the cocoons, everyone's lives will be more comfortable."

The local people said, "Who said it wasn't? Everyone is very happy. They feel that they can live a good life this year and are thanking the Count House for their kindness. Who knew that after we sent the cocoons to Xuanwu City, they would not accept them. "

Not accept?

The cocoons were harvested well in previous years, but this year they said they would not accept them?

The entire Xuan Wu Mansion had a hundred thousand people, and 70% of them relied on silkworm farming for a living.

The annual income from silkworm farming was much higher than that from rice farming.

Most of the farmers' fields and hills were used to plant mulberry trees and raise silkworms. The money from selling the cocoons was used to pay taxes to Xuan Wu Mansion, some was used to buy food, and the rest was used for household use.

Because the Count House's taxes were not high, the farmers' lives were good. They were better off than the other farmers in Xuanwu City.

Two years ago, many farmers spent a lot of money to buy better mulberry saplings. This way, they could produce more leaves.

Now they are not accepting the cocoons?

This is going to be a big problem.

This is equivalent to nearly a hundred thousand farmers' half a year of labor wasted. Without money, how are they going to pay taxes to the Count House? How are they going to buy food? How are they going to feed their wives and children?

The whole family is counting on selling the cocoons to survive.

The Count House's annual income comes from the silkworm tax. Once the tax is cut off, the Count House will face a serious financial crisis.

Moreover, Xuan Wu Mansion has to pay the Yin Yuan Association's debt every six months. Without this money, the financial chain will be broken.

The most important thing is that the hundred thousand people don't have money to buy food. It will be a big mess.

The Count said: "Xu Guangyun doesn't accept the cocoons, but the Splendid Court's Lin Mo also doesn't accept it?"

The local people said: "Yes, these two families don't accept the cocoons produced in our Xuan Wu Mansion."

The Count said: "In the past, there were also silk merchants from other counties who came to collect the cocoons. Moreover, they also competed to be the first to bid. Did they not come this year?"

The local people said: "No, none of the silk merchants from other counties came. They can only sell to the Xu family or the Lin family. But these two families deliberately targeted us. They publicly ordered that they are not allowed to accept our cocoons. Not only did they refuse to accept it, but they also said that no silk merchant in the entire Tiannan Province will accept our cocoons. "

This matter is very serious.

There are insects inside the cocoons. If they are not processed within a certain period of time, the insects inside will turn into moths and fly out of the cocoons. When that time comes, the cocoons will be half destroyed.

This is an economic attack on Xuan Wu Mansion. The Xu family and the Lin family are only the manipulators. Behind them are Zhang Chong and Zhu Jung. Otherwise, there will be silk merchants from other counties.

The village elder said, "The Xu Clan's Patriarch and his daughter even publicly announced that if we want them to collect the cocoons from our fief, we have to let the young master personally go and talk to her. Otherwise, our cocoons will rot at home and we will starve to death."

Shen Lang's eyes suddenly shrunk. This again?

Lin Zhuo was just half dead because of me, and he is not far from death. You, Xu Guangyun and Xu Qianqian are still playing this game?

But this is also part of the plan.

Just in time!

It will be New Year in a few months. Shen Lang can kill this fat pig of the Xu family to celebrate the New Year.

Shen Lang said with a smile: "Okay, I will go and talk to the Xu family now."

Immediately, dozens of local people knelt in front of Shen Lang and said: "Thank you for saving our lives, son-in-law."

…

Shen Lang came to the Xu family to negotiate with Xu Guangyun and Xu Qianqian.

The ex-wife didn't say any nonsense and directly stated the conditions. After being tortured by Shen Lang again and again, she seemed to have become colder and stronger.

"Shen Lang, you want us to accept the cocoons of the farmers in Xuan Wu Mansion?"

"The conditions are very simple. You hand over the formula of the purple and rainbow dyes for free. In this way, we can consider buying the cocoons produced in your fief at a lower price. Yes, lower the price."

"Otherwise, the cocoons of your 100,000 people will rot at home and they will starve to death. How about you find a way to transport these cocoons to the State of Yue for delivery? But you don't have the official documents to export such a large number of goods, so it's better to let them rot at home. "

"Shen Lang, when you unscrupulously offended us, you should have thought that this day would come."

…
