Chapter 209: Shen Lang’s face-smacking of concubine su! Every move was fatal!
Translator: 549690339
It was endless fun to fight against the heavens.
Fighting with the earth, the joy was endless.
It was endless fun to fight with others.
The king, ning yuanxian, could not do this.
However, he could clearly feel the endless joy of fighting with others.
Marquis su Nan was an old fox, an extremely cunning old fox.
On the surface, he was the king’s Lackey who protected the king’s will without any bottom line.
But that was only on the surface.
The monarch had completely felt how difficult it was to deal with su Nan in private and how needles were hidden in cotton.
He was even a little angry.
On the surface, the SU clan’s strategy was to protect everything about the monarch.
In fact, the Qiang Kingdom was the first and the most powerful.
Since a few decades ago, the SU clan had started carrying out this strategy and had been operating for a long time.
The Qiang Kingdom and the SU family had finally become an inseparable Alliance.
The SU family had also monopolized the diplomatic strategy between Yue country and Qiang country.
What was this?
He’s threatening us!
In reality, this was no different from the Jin clan’s strategy of ruling across the sea. In fact, it might even be worse.
Even though Jin Zhuo was stubborn, he was an upright person. He never beat around the bush and was an honest man.
Of course, it was because of this that the monarch had placed the butcher’s knife on his head.
Damn it, how could there be any logic in this world?
Now that Jin Zhuo had already taken down raging tide city, the king was extremely angry, and even wanted to send troops to destroy it.
However, after calming down, he still put his interests first.
As long as he kept an eye on Shen lang, Jin Zhuo would definitely not rebel.
On the contrary, it was hard to say for concubine su.
If the new policies were to take action against the SU family, su Nan would not rebel on the surface, but the Qiang country would enter the borders and plunder, causing smoke to rise.
The Western Army of Yue State was already under great pressure to deal with Chu State. If the Qiang state were to rebel again, the Western Army would be exhausted and Chu State would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Therefore, no matter what, the new government could not make a move on the SU family. Instead, at the critical moment, they had to invite su Nan back from Zhenyuan city to be the great general and the junior guardian of the crown Prince.
Many people thought that the king had invited su Nan back because of the new governance.
Actually, that was not the case.
It was because Jin Jun’s plot had been unraveled, and the rebellion in Nan ou was imminent.
At that time, the Qiang Kingdom was also ready to make a move. The king of the Qiang Kingdom had said several times that he wanted to enter the territory of Yue country to plunder.
The entire Southwest was in turmoil.
There was no other way. For the sake of the war situation in the Nan ou Kingdom, the king could only invite the old Bodhisattva, su Nan, back.
After that, the Qiang Kingdom quietened down as expected. They symbolically robbed a few times, and they even robbed on the SU clan’s territory.
Against Qiang country, su Nan was just that useful.
Otherwise, the king would have really wanted to send him far away.
This person was too difficult to deal with!
On the surface, it was extremely soft and loyal.
In fact, it was slippery.
Every time he entered the capital, he would be able to weave a dense net of power.
Originally, there were only two forces in the Imperial court, the crown prince’s faction and the third Prince’s faction, one civil and one military.
After su Nan came to the capital, he had formed a neutral faction in a short period of time with a few big shots. In an instant, he had formed a tripod among the Three Kingdoms in the Imperial court.
After that, the neutral faction continued to grow and benefited from both sides.
Both the Crown Prince and the third Prince were trying their best to win the support of the neutral faction.
Not only that, su Nan had claimed that he would only support the monarch and support whoever was on the throne.
As a result, the entire neutral faction was like the direct line of the monarch.
Could the king deny it?
Of course not!
Su Nan was a Fox exploiting the Tiger’s might, and ning yuanxian, this Tiger, had really allowed him to take advantage of the situation.
Before the rebellion in Nan ou, the soldiers of the Qiang Kingdom were ready to make a move. They said that the cattle and sheep would be reduced in production and that they would enter the Yue Kingdom to plunder.
Was this not su Nan’s plan?
Even a ghost wouldn’t believe it!
So on the surface, the title of the crown prince’s junior Guardian and Army-guarding great general was bestowed by the monarch.
However, to a certain extent, wasn’t it su Nan who fought for it?
This time, su Nan had finally revealed a flaw.
Of course, the monarch had to pick up a knife and cut his flesh ruthlessly.
So why would he meet su Nan in advance and accept his apology?
If you ask for forgiveness in private, should I forgive you or not?
It would be better to wait until the entire court was in a state of frenzy and the whole incident had completely fermented, rising to a huge political crisis.
The bigger the ruckus, the bigger the crisis your su clan will face.
I can only let you bleed more if I cut you.
At this moment, an extremely beautiful and luxurious woman walked in.
Su Nan’s younger sister, Su Fei, was also the biological mother of Ning Zheng and Ning Jing.
“Chenqie pays her respects to Your Majesty.”
The monarch said gently, ” it’s cold in spring. The ground is cold. My dear concubine, please get up! It’s not even daybreak yet, why are you up so early?”
Concubine su replied,”although I didn’t read much, I still respect Saints. I also know that the Holy Temple is the faith of the people.” I heard that the Holy Temple was burned down by the villains of the Qiang Kingdom and thought that His Majesty must have suffered greatly. Thus, I felt uneasy and came to take a look.”
The king looked at the ground.
Everything in the study room was smashed.
Many precious porcelain and jade items were all smashed.
There was also the red sandalwood table, which had been cut countless times by the king’s sharp sword.
This was his most precious desk.
He had even beaten his most trusted eunuch ten times, leaving him badly mangled.
He had no choice. He had to vent his anger and let everyone see it.
Then, Su Fei stopped talking.
It was obvious that she wanted to plead for her brother, su Nan, but the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, so she could not speak.
If he didn’t speak, he could at least use his eyes.
The monarch said, ” don’t worry. Young master su has worked hard and achieved many things. How can I blame him? ” You can rest at ease!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty. I shall take my leave now,” concubine su said.
After leaving, Su Fei’s eyes suddenly flashed with a few traces of gloominess.
The response he got from the monarch was not good, because he was trying to avoid it.
The intention of concubine SU’s visit was obvious. She wanted the king to meet Marquis su Nan in advance and not after the court session.
Why?
There was still two hours before the court session, and the political consequences of the burning of the Holy Temple had not yet completely erupted.
Hence, su Nan had to pay a smaller price for confessing in advance.
Ning yuanxian was the ruler of a country. It was not appropriate for him to take the initiative to ask su Nan for anything, and he could not directly participate in the game.
Therefore, by asking for forgiveness in advance, su Nan could get through this crisis with a smaller price.
And once the court session began!
All the officials in the world would be frantically impeaching him, and the matter of the Holy Temple burning down would rise to an uncontrollable situation.
It would turn into a huge crisis.
At that time, the anger of the officials would become a weapon in the hands of the monarch.
The Qiang Kingdom had committed a sin, and the SU clan had suffered. This was something that could not be helped.
‘The key is that the SU clan sent people to keep an eye on the dozen or so envoys and Warriors of the Qiang Kingdom.
Now that these people have burned down the Holy Temple, can you say that your su clan is innocent?
Now that the monarch did not meet su Nan in advance, it meant that he was sharpening his knife, ready to rip off the SU clan.
If concubine su wanted to survive this crisis, she would have to pay a huge price.
How could the king, ning yuanxian, be so mean and heartless?
Not only to the Jin clan, but also to the SU clan!
Only after seeing through the king’s intentions did concubine su feel uneasy.
Even though she was already married to the king, he would never forget that he was a woman of the SU clan.
Concubine su was the one he truly relied on.
Only when concubine su was powerful would her position in the harem be high.
Looking at concubine Bian, she wasn’t considered beautiful, and her health wasn’t very good. She hadn’t even given birth to a child.
Under normal circumstances, he would have long been thrown into the cold Palace.
However, she was still the king’s favorite concubine. Every month, the king would stay at the Queen’s place for 13 days, concubine Bian’s place for 10 days, and the other concubines would take turns to stay for the remaining seven or eight days.
What was the reason?
Wasn’t it all because of how powerful Duke Bian Xiao was?
..................
Outside the palace!
At this time, the sky was just starting to brighten.
The aged Marquis su Nan knelt on the ground. He was not straight at all, and instead, his back was hunched even more.
His white hair was swaying in the wind.
His entire body was trembling, as if he could fall down at any moment.
His son, su jianting, knelt straight beside him.
Shen lang and Ning Zheng did not kneel.
The fifth Prince, Ning Zheng, was supposed to kneel because he was used to it. He would kneel for a whole day and night.
The last time he pleaded for the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, he had to kneel for two to three days.
However, since Shen lang did not kneel, he had no choice but to not kneel.
Otherwise, Shen lang would appear to be very rude.
uncle! Shen lang went forward and bowed. my nephew-in-law, Shen lang, greets uncle.
Su Nan nodded his head and did not say anything.
It wasn’t because he was rude, but because he was here to ask for forgiveness from the king, so he couldn’t speak.
The first thing he said must be to admit his guilt to the monarch, otherwise it would be disrespectful and insincere.
If it was any other time, Marquis su Nan would definitely warmly invite Shen lang to the Zhenyuan Marquis ‘residence as a guest.
On the contrary, su jianting used to be very good at posturing.
For example, when he went to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to fight with Mulan for the first time, he had a really good grasp of his tone and was really good at acting cool.
At that moment, he did not bother to put on an act with Shen lang. He stared at him coldly and said, ” “Get out of the way.”
Anyway, there was no one else here, only Shen lang and the useless Ning Zheng. There was no need to act.
Marquis su Nan sighed in his heart.
This son of his was still not experienced enough.
Acting had to be done at all times.
There were people who wanted to act, but there was no one who wanted to act. Only then would it appear real, and there were no flaws.
I, su Nan, have been acting all my life.
He was acting as the king’s dog, an extremely loyal dog.
After acting for a long time, everyone in the world would think so.
The monarch could only think so.
Countless people were scolding Marquis su Nan, saying that he was the shame of the old aristocratic families, a lowly Lackey, and so on.
Not only was he not angry, but he was also very happy.
Not only did he allow others to scold him, but he also paid the Imperial Censorate to scold him.
According to modern sayings, my character setting is considered a success.
Standing under the king’s glory, he became one of the Giants in the neutral faction.
“Get lost!” Su jianting said in a low voice.
Shen lang still did not leave.
This is the square in front of the palace gate. You, su jianting, don’t dare to use force.
Shen lang walked closer and said in a low voice, ” “Uncle Su Nan, you probably heard it already? There are rumors that I said I would kill you when I met His Majesty in the palace yesterday.”
Was it not?
Shen lang shook his head and said, ” rumors. They are all rumors. You must not believe them.
Su jianting couldn’t help but say coldly, ” “It’s too late to change your mind now.”
Shen lang said, ” I clearly said that Xi Jue wanted to kill your entire family. He wanted to exterminate your su clan. Why did the rumors only say that I wanted to Kill Uncle Su Nan? The person who spread the rumor was too careless. At least you finished it. ”
As soon as he said this, su jianting’s face turned green, and he was about to explode.
He wanted to pull out his sword and tear Shen lang into pieces.
How dare you, Shen lang, be so arrogant and domineering?
Did he eat a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gall?
However, this was in front of the palace. If he dared to draw his sword and kill, wouldn’t that be a rebellion?
Marquis su Nan finally turned around and looked at Shen lang. He was slightly stunned.
The legendary Shen lang, who was so intelligent that he was almost demonic, actually looked like this?
Was he that cheap?
Was he so cheap on the surface?
Was he that direct?
Su jianting said in a hoarse voice,”Shen lang, were you the one behind the burning of the Holy Temple?” If you still have some backbone, then tell me the truth.”
Then, su jianting stared at Shen Lang as if he would be seen through if he lied.
“It’s me. I’m the one who did this.” “I don’t have a backbone, but I can still tell the truth,” Shen lang said.
Su jianting’s eyes suddenly opened.
His hand instinctively went to his waist to pull out the sword.
He did not expect Shen lang to be so daring.
This was such a big matter, yet you still dared to admit it.
this is my scheme. I burned the temple to save Jin mucong and to frame the SU clan. I poked a hole in the sky. Shen lang said, ” su jianting, I’m very honest in front of my enemies. What can you do to me? ” What can you do to me?”
Prince Ning Zheng’s lips twitched.
He had heard about Shen Lang’s character, but it was his first time seeing him in such a despicable state. He was not used to it.
“Good, you’ve finally admitted it.” Su jianting said coldly, ” now that the truth is out, do you have the courage to face the monarch? ” Do you have the guts to admit that you’re the one behind this in front of all the officials?”
Shen lang said, ” of course not. I don’t have the guts. I told you long ago that I don’t have any backbone. Why don’t you report me to the king?”
F * ck!
You animal, I can’t wait to tear you into a thousand pieces, a thousand pieces!
However, what made Shen lang gasp in amazement was that Marquis su Nan was not angry. Instead, he looked at him with admiration and respect.
Motherf * cker!
This person was truly an old fox!
Not only could he endure it, but he could also see everything clearly. He was also as calm as a poisonous snake and did not get angry at all.
Zhang Ji was as sharp as a sword.
And this su Nan was like a pool of poisonous water, invisible and formless.
He was another top opponent.
However, Shen lang was excited.
I, Shen lang, will only appear powerful when I encounter a powerful opponent.
It was interesting to crush, but it was even more interesting to defeat a strong enemy.
At this moment, the officials came to court one after another.
The first to arrive was an old acquaintance, the governor of Tiannan province, Zhu Rong.
The crown prince’s loyal fan.
“Long time no see, Governor Zhu Rong. How have you been?” Shen lang hurried forward.
Zhu Rong was stunned. Why was she so familiar with him?
I don’t think we’re that close, and we were even enemies before.
Zhu Rong nodded and then entered the palace.
Shen lang said, ” Governor Zhurong, the main culprit behind the burning of the temple is the SU family. Later, in the court, you must remember to impeach Marquis su Nan. It’s best if you drag all the officials under the Crown Prince to impeach him as well. I, Shen lang, am a scholar. My internal organs have been destroyed by the burning of the Holy Temple, but I am not qualified to enter the Imperial court. Therefore, I can only ask the governor to seek justice for all the scholars in the world!”
Governor-General Zhu Rong stopped in his tracks.
He looked at Shen lang in disbelief.
Did I hear it wrong?
Shen lang, do you think the palace is a wet market?
You’re still treating it like you and the school of Hanshui town, asking a Minister to criticize another Minister in public.
Was this child’s play?
At this moment, another official came over.
He was the younger brother of the Marquis of Zhenxi, the champion general, the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Zhong E!
The third Prince’s loyal supporters.
The highest authority in the Imperial court of Yue State was the minister’s desk.
The Bureau of Military Affairs was the highest military organization in Yue country, in charge of the entire country’s military and political power.
There was only one Messenger Shu, Duke Weiwu, Bian Xiao.
However, he had never taken up the position, so this position was actually empty.
There were as many as four deputies of the Bureau of Military Affairs.
Marquis su Nan’s true official position was the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs.
North guarding Marquis, Nangong ao, was also the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs. He was ranked after su Nan and before Zhong E.
Shen lang went forward and said, ” Earl Zhong ‘e, how are you? I am Shen lang from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
The Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Zhong ‘e, couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Shen lang from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu?
Are we close?
You’re just a live-in son-in-law, and you’re trying to make connections with me? Do you have any self-awareness? Do you know how high the heavens are?
Besides, my family and the Jin family are considered enemies.
That was because the Zhong family of the Marquis of the West and the Xue family of the Earl of Wu an were both direct descendants of the third Prince and absolute allies.
The Xue clan and the Jin clan were mortal enemies.
Of course, that kind of family was also the enemy of the Jin family.
Shen lang did not mind at all. He cupped his hands and said, ” “Earl Zhong ‘e, the main culprit behind the burning of the Holy Temple this time is Marquis su Nan. In a while, remember to impeach him in the court. You must impeach him, bring all the officials of your faction to impeach him! I, Shen lang, am a scholar. If the Holy Temple is burned, my five internal organs will be destroyed.”
Then, the Earl of Zuan ‘e was also stunned.
Was Yingluo a lunatic?
How dare they collude in front of the palace?
Who Do You Think You Are? What kind of status was that?
A mere son-in-law, an ant-like figure, dared to do this? Was he not afraid of death?
He wanted to lose his temper. If it was anywhere else, he would have ordered Shen lang to be beaten to death.
However, this was the palace, and it was not his place to make a move.
If the monarch knew about this, he would immediately send people to capture Shen lang. Even if he was not beaten to death, he would at least beat him half to death.
This was simply seeking death.
What happened next was even more shocking.
Every time an official came to the court, Shen lang would approach them.
He then shouted loudly,”the Holy Temple was burned down by the SU family. Marquis su Nan is the main culprit. You must impeach him in the court later. Bring everyone to impeach him.” I, Shen lang, am also a scholar, but my holy temple was burnt down.”
This was not a discussion of national affairs at all, but more like a rumor.
He pulled whoever he saw.
You even asked your entire family to come along.
You’re the one who recommends people.
Su jianting really couldn’t bear it anymore and really wanted to make a move.
He could not do anything. Therefore, he called for the guards in the palace to capture Shen lang and beat him up.
However, didn’t he notice that the palace had no reaction to Shen Lang’s actions?
At this moment, Marquis su Nan was shocked.
Shen lang was really vicious.
And there was no bottom line at all.
Other people could not see his sinister heart, but count su Nan could see it clearly.
Shen lang was trying to make the fire bigger!
This was a reminder to the officials on the side of the Crown Prince and the third Prince to not miss this opportunity.
The king’s butcher knife was about to draw blood for the SU clan. Why didn’t you all seize the opportunity to catch the knife for the king?
Of course, both the Crown Prince and the third Prince wanted to win su Nan over.
If one side was to impeach su Nan, they would definitely not do it.
However, if both sides were to impeach each each each each each other, there would be no problem.
If he wanted to offend su Nan, he had to offend both of them.
If he didn’t want to offend them, he wouldn’t offend anyone.
Besides, compared to currying favor with su Nan, currying favor with the king was probably more important.
Shen lang was reminding the officials of the two factions to cater to the emperor’s wishes.
You don’t understand the king’s heart, and you still need me to remind you.
Originally, this incident was a crisis that was neither big nor small for the SU clan.
Now that Shen lang and the monarch were working together, they wanted to make this crisis bigger and bigger. They wanted to make a big hole in concubine SU’s body and bleed her blood.
How vicious.
Good move.
So powerful!
Marquis su Nan gasped in amazement.
Shen Lang’s intelligence was close to that of a demon, and he could finally feel it.
He was alone in the capital. He had just arrived yesterday and had already stirred up a storm.
No wonder Zhang Ye lost.
No wonder the Jin family was able to take over raging tide city.
This was really troublesome!
A small crisis was about to be turned into a big crisis.
............
The king had sent a eunuch to call Shen lang half an hour ago.
The chief eunuch had just been flogged, and his body was badly mangled.
Therefore, the young eunuch came to the palace and summoned Shen lang.
However, when this eunuch arrived at the palace gates, he heard him stirring up trouble outside, instigating the ministers to impeach Marquis su Nan.
He was overjoyed.
Shen lang, you’re seeking your own death.
Isn’t this a good chance for me to flatter him? everyone knows that the monarch doesn’t like the Jin family and Shen lang.
So, the eunuch went back to complain.
He reported Shen Lang’s disgraceful actions in front of the palace to the monarch.
The first was to please the Emperor, the second was to please the Crown Prince, and the third was to please concubine su.
It was killing three birds with one stone.
this is really an eye-opener for me. This Shen lang is just a live-in son-in-law, but he treats the front of the palace as a wet market. He would not let go of any official he saw and even clamored for every Minister to impeach Marquis su Nan. He even asked his entire family to be impeached.
such a clown’s behavior. He has no respect for Your Majesty at all. This servant can’t stand it, so I came to report to Your Majesty.
The eunuch was overjoyed. Shen lang was done for.
The Crown Prince and consort su should be rewarding me greatly.
The monarch’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and a murderous intent surged in his heart.
Of course, it was not for Shen lang, but for this young eunuch who had just been favored.
Then, the monarch shouted angrily,”this little live-in son-in-law is actually so bold and presumptuous?” Impudent, impudent!”
“Please calm down, Your Majesty,” the eunuch said.”I’ll immediately bring people to capture this bastard.”
Those who knew ning yuanxian would know.
When he was angry, he wasn’t angry.
When he was smiling, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
“I want to see what Shen lang is up to!” The monarch raged.
After that, he did not call Shen lang and allowed him to perform outside the palace.
They waited until Shen lang found dozens of officials like a pyramid scheme and asked them to impeach su Nan.
The monarch was finally furious and could not take it anymore.
“Someone, bring that live-in son-in-law in and tie him up!”
“Impudent, impudent!”
“Does he really think that I don’t dare to kill?”
The young eunuch was overjoyed. He wanted to bring his Warriors to capture Shen lang and torture him.
However!
The eunuch beside him was a few steps ahead. Even though he was badly beaten, he was still very fast.
He brought four Warriors to the palace and brought Shen lang into the palace!
In his eyes, the young eunuch who had been lucky enough to advance was already a dead man.
What a fool, you can’t even guess the emperor’s true feelings, and you still want to stand by the emperor’s side?

With tears streaming down his face, he begged for monthly votes and support. He really needed it!
