"Miss, what's wrong?"
The female guard outside hurriedly asked, and she would break in at any time when she drew her sword.
Xue Li quickly covered his mouth and said, "No, nothing, I had a nightmare."
She closed her eyes, really wishing it was a nightmare.
But when I opened my eyes again, the rash and blisters were still there.
It was as if the itch of ants crawling inside the bones was getting worse.
Although she is domineering, she is not ignorant.
She knew that she must not let anyone know, otherwise there would be an uproar.
She is obviously pure and flawless, but it will definitely be passed down that she has a disease, and her future with Zhonglang will be over.
Omg?
What the hell is going on here?
What am I doing wrong?
Why is God punishing me like this?
I am obviously the most clean, and I am the most clean.
Why do you get such a terrible disease?
Next!
Xue Li didn't sleep all night, it was incomparable pain and suffering.
next day!
She changed her order directly, instead of returning to the capital, she went south to Wu'an City.
She is going home.
At this time, only the family can be trusted, and only the female doctor of the family can see a doctor for her.
Moreover, she didn't dare to ride a horse, it would kill people.
But even in a carriage, it was completely unbearable.
It seems that every journey is a torment.
Couldn't sleep at all during the day and night.
After just a few days, the whole person became haggard and lost more than ten pounds.
The whole person seems to be in hell.
Really excruciating pain.
………………
When Shen Lang saw Jin Mucong again, he felt that this fat mansion seemed to have matured a lot.
"Here, I gave it to you." Shen Lang handed over a pair of trousers.
"Thank you brother-in-law..." Fei Zhai instinctively took a look and said in astonishment, "However, I have already quit."
Shen Lang said: "How long have you been quitting?"
Jin Mucong said, "Seventeen hours."
It's accurate to the hour, you obviously can't quit.
Don't say it's you, even your brother-in-law and I, who are so determined, can't quit.
Shen Lang said: "This is Xue Li's."
Jin Mucong was startled, picked it up quickly, and looked at it carefully: "Really?"
Shen Lang said: "Of course."
Jin Mucong said, "Brother-in-law, you...you mustn't green me."
Damn, Shen Lang suddenly wanted to kill this fat house.
"Just kidding, just kidding..." Jin Mucong sneered, and put it in his pocket.
Shen Lang didn't know whether this gift cured him or hurt him.
However, this fat house looks quite stocky, and it should be very nutritious.
Then, the fat house once again worked hard to write.
Shen Lang said: "Fatty, what are you doing?"
Fat House said: "Copy books."
Shen Lang said: "What are you copying?"
The fat man said, "It's the nineteen strategies and one hundred and fifty poems you taught me."
Shen Lang said: "The dispute over Jinshan Island is over, this thing is useless."
People still know how to burn books after the college entrance examination, but you are still copying, you are really addicted.
Jin Mucong said, "Brother-in-law, if I don't work hard, I won't be able to get a daughter-in-law in the future."
Shen Lang said: "So what?"
Jin Mucong said: "So, I plan to take the imperial examination. I want to be a jinshi like Tang Yun."
Shen Lang said: "Fat man, don't scare me, you are going to inherit the Earl's Mansion in the future, and you have inexhaustible glory and wealth. Why should you fight over this single-plank bridge with these hard-working scholars?"
Jin Mucong said, "Once I am admitted to the imperial examination and become a jinshi, the girls will like me when they see that I am talented."
People take the imperial examinations for the sake of being an official, but you are for the sake of your sister?
Jin Mucong said: "So brother-in-law, hurry up and get me some more articles. It's better to get seven or eight hundred policy theories and thousands of poems. If this subject is not good, I will go to the next subject, I don't believe I can't hit it. Last time."
Shen Lang was immediately stunned by Fatty's perseverance.
"Fatty, you have such perseverance, why don't you make a fuss by yourself?"
Jin Mucong said, "Brother-in-law, how can a smart person like you talk nonsense? How can someone as stupid as me be able to write articles?"
Shen Lang was surprised, it seems that the fat house is really mature.
...
next day!
Tang Lun, the prince of Jin Haibo, came to the Earl of Xuanwu in person.
"Uncle Xuanwu, my family has officially handed over Jinshan Island to the Jin family in accordance with the contract. Please come and receive it!"
Shen Lang was overjoyed and said, "Jin Haibo really believes in people."
Then, Uncle Xuanwu was in high spirits and led two thousand private troops, two hundred smelting craftsmen, and eight hundred miners, and took dozens of large ships to take over Jinshan Island.
Tang Yun, the son of the Earl of Jinhai, personally accompanied him.
Along the way, Shen Lang was very enthusiastic about Tang Yun Shizi, completely trusting.
"Tang Yun Shizi, I really didn't expect that Ling Zun would be so decisive and wise. It seems that I really underestimated the heroes of the world before."
"More than 100 years ago, the Jin family and the Tang family became friends. After that, there were indeed some misunderstandings, but this misunderstanding has now been resolved, and the two of us should also clear the past."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Tang Yun sneered disdainfully, but nodded yes on his face.
Shen Langdao: "Now that the New Deal is in full swing, our two are old-fashioned nobles, and we should move forward hand in hand and unite as one. From now on, our two families will be friends again, how about forming a brother family?"
Tang Yun said, "Brother Shen is right."
Shen Lang said: "I heard that Brother Tang has a younger sister who is sixteen years old, knowledgeable, and beautiful. And my eldest son, Jin Mucong, happens to be unmarried. Why don't we have a good relationship here and continue our friendship more than a hundred years ago? ya?"
Tang Yun said, "Didn't Jin Mucong have a marriage contract?"
Shen Lang said: "It has been lifted."
Tang Yun was even more proud, the Wu'an Earl's Mansion finally released the engagement with your Xuanwu Earl's Mansion.
Your Jin family is no longer pushed by the wall, but pushed by the crowd.
"This matter is too big for me to decide, but I will go back and report to my father." Tang Yun said, "But I believe my father will seriously consider it."
Shen Lang said: "That's good, that's good, I look forward to the day when our two families can marry again."
At this moment, Jin Hui said outside: "Uncle, Jinshan Island has arrived."
In front is the wharf of Jinshan Island, which is usually used to transport iron ore.
The fleet of Count Xuanwu's mansion began to line up, preparing to land on Jinshan Island.
"All craftsmen, all miners are ready to land and officially take over the Jinshan Island mine and smelting workshop." Lord Earl ordered.
Then, several large ships docked at the pier first.
Hundreds of samurai first landed on the island to establish simple defensive positions.
Then hundreds of workers were absent from work, and a hundred craftsmen began to land on the island, preparing to take over the smelting workshop near the dock first.
Tang Yun, the mansion of the Earl of Jinhai, also took the opportunity to board Jinshan Island first.
And at this moment, the drum sound suddenly sounded.
Countless pirate warriors poured out from the smelting workshops on Jinshan Island.
Thousands of people!
In a short period of time, he surrounded the hundreds of warriors, hundreds of miners, and more than 100 craftsmen who landed on the island of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Then one of the leading generals at least rushed out.
I only saw him naked and majestic as a mountain, holding a big knife in his hand, rushing to the front of the warrior army in the Earl Xuanwu Mansion, and slashing it down.
In an instant, the two samurai were all cut in half.
Even though these samurai were actually hired a few months ago, Uncle Xuanwu was still stunned.
This murderer is the adopted son of Pirate King Qiu Tianwei, the fourth character of Raging Tide City, Qiuhao.
Shen Lang and Uncle Xuanwu on the boat seemed to be completely stunned by the scene in front of them.
"Brother Tang Yun, why is this?" Shen Lang said in shock: "Didn't your family hand over the entire Jinshan Island to my House of Earl Xuanwu? Why are there pirates in Raging Tide City?"
Tang Yun, who had already landed on the island, said innocently: "I don't know either. In order to cooperate with Jiaodao, we all evacuated from Jinshan Island three days ago. I never thought that the pirate king Qiu Tianwei would be so despicable, taking the opportunity to sneak attack and occupy it. island."
Then, Prince Tang Yun said loudly: "Pirates of Raging Tide City, listen to me, this island has been handed over to the Jin family by the Tang family, and now it is the foundation of the Jin family, so please leave quickly. "
"Hahahahaha..." Qiu Haomai, the righteous son of the pirate king, laughed loudly: "It's ridiculous, things that fell into our Qiu family have never been spit out!"
Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo said with trembling: "Let Qiu Tianwei speak out."
Qiu Hao said: "Count Xuanwu, twenty years ago, your father, Earl Jin Yu, was my adoptive father's defeated general, so you have no right to let him talk to you. Having me talk to you is already flattering you rubbish. "
Shen Lang said: "Boldly, my father-in-law is the noble Xuanwu of Yue after a hundred years."
"Bah!" Pirate King Yizi Qiuhao laughed loudly: "Twenty years ago, your Jin family let us be wiped out, such incompetent waste, still want to gain our respect? Your name is Shen Lang right. ?"
Shen Lang said: "So what?"
Qiu Hao patted his thigh and laughed loudly: "You have already died at the Earl of Xuanwu, Shen Lang, you are so white, tender and beautiful, and now you get through my crotch, I will give you a way to live in the future, let you become How is it, my little Xianggong?"
Shen Lang pretended to be stern and said: "Qiuhao, you are pirates, you took Jinshan Island in a grand manner, you are against the Yue Kingdom, are you not afraid of the monarch's anger?"
"Hahahaha..." Qiuhao said, "Your monarch wants you to die."
Then, he laughed loudly and said, "Uncle Xuanwu, do you want Jinshan Island? All right, lead your troops to fight. If we beat us, Jinshan Island belongs to your Jin family."
Uncle Xuanwu and Shen Lang saw that there were more than 5,000 pirate enemy troops on the island, two or three times as many as their own.
Moreover, the defense has been deployed.
Uncle Xuanwu hissed: "Qiuhao, I don't have the same knowledge as you today. You immediately exchange hundreds of warriors, hundreds of miners, and one hundred craftsmen from my family."
"Hahahahaha..." Qiu Hao said, "Dreaming in the daytime, I will laugh at the hundreds of warriors, hundreds of miners, and 100 craftsmen of your Jin family, thank you Uncle Xuanwu."
Uncle Xuanwu pointed at him and trembled: "You, you are shameless!"
And right now!
There was a rapid drumbeat on the sea.
A fleet appeared on the sea.
Hundreds of warships rushed towards the fleet of Count Xuanwu's mansion.
Shen Lang exclaimed: "It's a pirate fleet, this is an ambush, this is a trap."
"Run, run..."
Then, the fleet of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion escaped.
But the speed is still not fast enough, the pirate fleet will soon catch up.
Shen Lang shouted: "Throw all the useless things into the sea."
Immediately, countless grains, countless supplies, and countless iron tools were thrown into the sea.
In this way, the fleet of Earl Xuanwu's mansion was speeding up and escaped the siege of the pirates in Raging Tide City.
Uncle Xuanwu stood on the pier, pointed at Jinshan Island and roared angrily: "I hate it so much! I hate it so much! Qiu Tianwei will wait for you, wait for me, I will definitely play the monarch and ask him to send an army to come. beat you up..."
At this time, hundreds of warriors, hundreds of absenteeism, and 100 blacksmiths from the Count's House of Xuanwu on Jinshan Island were all disarmed, squatting on the ground and becoming prisoners.
"We are just short of absenteeism and blacksmiths. Thank you Uncle Xuanwu for sending us precious manpower." Qiu Hao laughed.
Uncle Xuanwu couldn't bear it any longer, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell back, completely fainting.
From the beginning to the end, the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei did not appear.
His adopted son Qiuhao walked into the most gorgeous house on the island, and immediately several beautiful men stepped forward to wait on him.
Then a beautiful figure came out, it was Zhang Chunhua.
Qiu Hao said: "How about Miss Zhang? This Earl of Xuanwu is completely vulnerable!"
…………………………
Inside the cabin!
Uncle Xuanwu was rinsing his mouth.
In order to stage a good show of vomiting blood, he really bit his gums just now, instead of using pig blood and duck blood instead.
Shen Lang said: "My father-in-law is good at acting."
Uncle Xuanwu shook his head helplessly. He disliked acting the most.
"Lang'er, isn't the cost of our acting a bit too high? Three hundred warriors, seven hundred miners, and one hundred craftsmen have all become prisoners of Raging Tide City."
Shen Lang said: "In order to lure wolves into the bait, there is always a price to pay. Besides, if our Jin family is not miserable, how can we look realistic, and how can the next strategy go on? For the sake of Tide City, what is this price worth? ?"
Moreover, these people were only taken prisoner. The big deal was that they were detained as coolies for more than a month, and their lives would not be in danger.
Shen Lang said: "Father-in-law, after all, you vomited blood. Next, you will continue to pretend to be sick and keep writing to the monarch, asking him to send troops to attack the pirates in Raging Tide City."
Earl Jinzhuo said: "The truth of this matter, do we really not even tell the confidant general of the Earl's House?"
Shen Lang said: "Of course not, the stakes are very important, and one more person who knows about it will have more danger of leaking secrets."
Shen Lang's second-step strategy is complete.
Contain a quarter of the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei's forces to Jinshan Island.
On top of that, it directly drives the game below.
………………
Good things don't go out, bad things travel thousands of miles.
The pirate king Qiu Tianwei dispatched troops to Jinshan Island, beat the private army of Count Xuanwu's mansion to the point of losing their helmets and armor, and captured thousands of them.
Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo vomited blood in public.
These news, like wings, spread throughout the country in just a few days.
Countless people are embarrassed.
Countless people cheered.
How long have the Kim family been proud of?
The battle for Jinshan Island had only been won for less than a month, so it was completely lost.
Really happy and sad.
Now not only has Jinshan Island been lost, but also a thousand people have been captured.
It really hurts.
Not only did the Jin family not eat meat, but they also had a few teeth broken.
After Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo returned home, he fell ill directly.
On the sickbed, he wrote several memorials to the monarch.
One is more bleak than the other, and one is more sad than the other.
Every memorial is like a cuckoo weeping blood, asking the monarch to send troops to exterminate the pirates and retake Jinshan Island.
The monarch was furious, and ordered to scold Qiu Tianwei, the pirate king, and ordered him to withdraw from Jinshan Island immediately, otherwise the consequences would be at your own risk.
But Qiu Tianwei ignored the monarch's will.
The monarch issued decrees to express condolences to Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo many times, and sent imperial doctors and countless supplements.
But regarding the issue of dispatching troops to destroy the pirate Qiu Tianwei, the monarch said that the war against the South was under way, and the treasury was unable to support the opening of two battlefields at the same time.
But please rest assured, Uncle Xuanwu, when the war in Nanwu Kingdom is over, he will immediately send troops to attack Qiu Tianwei and retake Jinshan Island.
Uncle Xuanwu wrote a few more memorials, and finally wrote a blood letter, asking the monarch to send troops.
However, the king never responded.
As a result, the House of Earl Xuanwu became the most desolate noble in the entire Yue Kingdom.
Completely precarious, like a candle in the wind, it may go out at any time.
In everyone's eyes, the demise of the Jin family is just around the corner.
The victory of the battle for Jinshan Island, instead of gaining vitality, hastened the demise of the Jin family.
...
It was at this time that Shu Tingyu, a messenger of Yinyuan, came to visit Count Xuanwu's mansion.
He formally claimed that astronomical debt from twenty years ago.
The original debt was 1 million gold coins, plus 20 years of interest, a total of 1.7 million gold coins.
But in the past 20 years, Earl Jin Zhuo has successively lost one million gold coins, and now there are 700,000 left.
Earl Jinzhuo has been completely lingering on the sickbed, almost dying.
Now the head of Earl Xuanwu's mansion is Jin Mulan and Shen Lang.
Mulan said sadly: "Messenger Shu, we have returned one million gold coins in the past 20 years, and we have done our best. Now the total gold coins in my family does not exceed 20,000, and these 700,000 gold coins are taken anyway. not coming out."
This is true. Now that the Earl of Xuanwu has emptied all the warehouses, they can't collect 20,000 gold coins, and even 10,000 gold coins can't be collected.
Because most of the gold coins were spent by Shen Lang.
Shen Lang said: "Yin Yuan will have a good relationship with my family for a hundred years, so can't it be regarded as a grace period for the past relationship? Even if it is a year?"
Shen Lang bowed down and said, "Messenger Shu, please Yin Yuan will give my family a year of grace. I, Shen Lang, thank you for your kindness and virtue, I beg you, I beg you!"
Shu Tingyu said, "I'm very sorry. I'm also very sympathetic to what happened to your mansion, but I can't help you."
Jin Mulan said sadly: "Shu Tingyu, do you want to force us to death? Do you want to watch my entire Jin family hang themselves?"
Shu Tingyu said with an expressionless face, "Within one month, pay back 700,000 gold coins according to the contract. Otherwise, our Yinyuan Society can only take back the Wangya Island you mortgaged according to the contract."
Jin Mulan said angrily: "We have already lost Jinshan Island, and now you are going to take our Wangya Island. I would rather die than hand over Wangya Island, unless you step on my body."
Shu Tingyu said: "The contract of the year was written in black and white, and it was clear. After a month, if I still don't pay 700,000 gold coins, I can only appeal to the monarch, ask the monarch to uphold justice, and take away Wangya Island from your family. ."
Then, Shu Tingyu said: "Uncle Shen Lang, you have always been very capable, why don't you go and raise money, maybe you can raise 700,000 gold coins within a month."
How much is seven hundred thousand gold coins?
All the income of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion, including taxes, salt, iron, and silk, is less than 70,000 a year.
In order to collect 700,000 gold coins, it would take 10 years for Earl Xuanwu to not eat or drink.
Xu Guangyun is rich, but all his belongings add up to only 200,000 gold coins.
This is an astronomical sum.
The annual tax of the entire Tiannan Province is less than 700,000 gold coins.
Wanting to raise so many gold coins in a month is a complete nonsense.
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, the loss of Wangya Island from the Earl of Xuanwu has become a foregone conclusion.
Once Wangya Island is lost, the Jin family will completely lose 70% of their financial resources, and the only way is to abolish the private army.
And without the private army, how can you protect the family fief?
So after the loss of Wangya Island, the Jin family even perished.
After Shu Tingyu left, Mulan took a long breath.
She obviously doesn't know how to act, but her husband forced him to act.
Every second she acted just now was a torment for her.
Shen Lang couldn't help kissing her and said, "Miss, you did a great job!"
Mulan said: "Husband, although we are actually acting, everything about them is true. I can't imagine earning 700,000 gold coins in a month, no matter what, is it really possible?"
Shen Lang said: "Miss, don't you believe in my ability?"
Mulan said: "Of course I believe it, but... this is too unbelievable. There are not many companies in the world who can take out 700,000 gold coins at once. The taxation of the entire Tiannan Province does not add up to 700,000 gold coins. It's more difficult than climbing to the sky!"
Shen Lang said: "Miss, how about we make a bet?"
Mulan said, "You say it."
Shen Lang said: "If I can earn more than 700,000 gold coins within a month, you will... take the initiative... sleep with me!"
...
With a sad face, Jin Hui returned to his yard.
The wealthy and arrogant girl he rescued has been living in the Earl Xuanwu Mansion for more than a month.
She almost saw the demise of a family with her own eyes and felt the same way.
In the past month or so, Jin Hui has been extremely fond of her, but respected her like a goddess.
Give her all the best, but never dare to approach, only dare to look at her from a distance.
According to legend, as long as I see you, I will be happy, which is the portrayal of Jin Hui.
He has done everything a licking dog can do.
It was under the care of Jin Hui's siblings that this arrogant girl with congenital heart disease gradually healed her inner wounds.
She felt very happy in this small yard.
However, this happiness seems to be over now, and the Kim family is about to perish.
Jin Hui stepped forward and said, "Miss Red Line, I... I'll take you home."
The wealthy and arrogant girl said in shock: "What? Take me home?"
Jin Hui said: "Uncle said, the Jin family is about to be in a disaster, we can't drag you down. You tell me where your home is, and I will send you back. You are an innocent person, and there is no reason to be buried with us. ."
The eyes of the wealthy and arrogant girl suddenly turned red.
She stared at Jin Hui and suddenly said, "Jin Hui, do you like me?"
Jin Hui's face was red, and he couldn't say a word.
The arrogant girl said again: "Do you dislike me being abused?"
Jin Hui shook his head desperately and said, "No, no, that will only make me respect you more and feel that you are more pure and flawless."
The proud girl said: "From today onwards, I will be your daughter-in-law, and this room will be our bridal chamber."
Jin Hui seemed to be instantly stunned by the huge happiness, and then quickly shook his head and said: "I, I am not worthy of you, my uncle said that you came from a wealthy family, and I am not worthy..."
Before Jin Hui could finish speaking, his mouth was sealed by this arrogant girl.
Then, this arrogant girl directly threw Jin Hui on the bed and put him to sleep!
Jin Hui is so powerful, he actually made the wedding candle earlier than Shen Lang.
…………
Mulan ran away, leaving Shen Lang alone in the study.
But as she ran, she nodded without a trace.
Shen Lang's heart was beating wildly, and it took a while to calm down.
Then, he looked east.
Once the chess game is up and running, it's really fast.
Everything went according to plan.
The only uncertain part of the plan now is Xu Qianqian in Raging Tide City.
The key, her role is very important, even the key to success or failure.
She hasn't heard anything yet, and doesn't know how her plans are going.
I don't know if she has become Qiu Yao'er's confidant.
Is it possible that I really want my Lord Lang to go out in person?
I'm really afraid of being pinched to death by that female devil, no, it was kicked to death.
I heard that this Qiu Yao'er is extremely hostile to men, especially beautiful men.
At this moment, Jin Zhong rushed in and said anxiously, "Uncle, someone came to collect the debt."
Shen Lang was stunned and said, "Didn't Yin Yuan Hui Shu Tingyu just leave?"
Jin Zhongdao: "It's Lin Mo from Jinxiu Pavilion. You said you owe him a thousand gold coins. Now that a few months have passed, there are a total of 1,300 gold coins with interest. Please return it immediately."
Shen Lang was really stunned.
When he killed Lin Zhuo before, Lin Mo fled that night.
For such a small person, Shen Lang did not specifically look for him.
I didn't expect that such a small person would just come to the door and slap in the face?
Is he crazy?
Wouldn't that be the case if the wall fell and everyone pushed it?
When did Shen Lang owe him a thousand gold coins?
It is said that Huluo and Pingyang were bullied by dogs, but now the Earl of Xuanwu has not completely perished. You, a small businessman, dare to bully your door. Isn't this courting death?
Among the first few enemies, Tian Heng, Xu Guangyun, and Viscount Zhu Lanting were better than Lin Mo.
Now that they are all dead, you Lin Mo not only did not die, but also jumped out.
Xiaoqiang!
Awesome, awesome!
Just for your tenacity, I will definitely give you a super lethal way to die.
...
In the parlour!
Shen Lang saw Lin Mo again.
The owner of Jinxiu Pavilion, the one who betrayed him first.
However, he did not come alone, and he was accompanied by an official, who seemed to have a large official position.
Seeing Shen Lang, Lin Mo did not hide the hatred in his heart. His son Lin Zhuo was killed by Shen Lang.
"Shen Lang, you sold me the golden dye formula and charged me a thousand gold coins. But you stole the formula from the Xu family. Now this thousand gold coins should be returned to me. Don't think you are Xuanwu. The son-in-law of the Earl's Mansion can repay the debt!"
What? Even a little guy like you can play tricks and tricks.
When did I take your thousand gold coins?
That is at this time.
Another enemy, Zhu Wenhua, rushed in, followed by City Lord Liu Wuyan and two unfamiliar officials.
"Shen Lang, what happened to you, you are suspected of murdering my father, Viscount Zhu Lanting, follow us to the Prefect's Mansion!"
Shen Lang smiled in his heart!
Interesting, more and more interesting.
This scene is so wonderful!
…………
Note: The first update was sent, with a full 7,000 words, written until eight o'clock in the morning, I went to sleep for a few hours, and continued to code words after getting up.
Brothers, I urgently need your firepower support, support me!
