Chapter 195 A Windfall

Little Wang didn't want to bother with Yu Laoer, this bull-like guy. He wore his new jacket out and came back in the evening with several holes in it. If someone didn't know, they would think he had gone to plow the fields.

Yu Laoer felt aggrieved. He took the foot washing water out and poured it out, then came back to continue dealing with the affairs of the West District.

When spring comes, he will definitely resign!

Whoever wants to be the district chief can be him. He doesn’t want to be the district chief even for a day!

……

……

On the day of Xiao Shen and Lu Qingqing's wedding, Wu County defeated the Yuan family and annexed the three prefectures occupied by the Yuan family. The county magistrate of Wu County, Chen Qinyu, proclaimed himself king and called himself "King Chen".

Beijing.

"A woman is the king! This is really against the will of heaven! It's the most ridiculous thing in the world!"

"Why didn't Marquis Anyuan attack directly? Why did he allow that woman to do whatever she wanted?"

"Women should stay in the back house to take care of their husbands and children. How can they come out and show their faces in public? It's really immoral!"

A group of old scholars were discussing in a teahouse, and when they got excited they even slammed the table.

Someone whispered, "What can we do if the person above doesn't do anything?"

After thinking about it, several people felt that it was indeed the case. Since the new emperor ascended the throne, apart from issuing an order to raise food and grass for Marquis Anyuan, he also married the daughter of the Minister of Revenue.

"No! I have read the books of sages for so many years, and I absolutely cannot allow a woman to cause chaos in the government!" An old scholar with gray hair stood up and bowed to the others, "I have decided to sit quietly outside Chengtian Gate and ask His Majesty to send Marquis Anyuan to attack that evil woman!"

As soon as the old scholar finished speaking, the others responded and stood up and left the teahouse.

There were more and more people along the way, most of them were students wearing student uniforms.

By the time they arrived at Chengtian Gate, there were already thousands of people who wanted to sit in silence.

They don’t care whether today is the new emperor’s wedding day or not.

Chengtian Gate was surrounded by people.

When Lu Qingqing's carriage arrived at Chengtian Gate, it was blocked by onlookers and scholars sitting in silence, and could not enter the palace at all.

When Xiao Shen in the palace heard the news, he was so angry that he smashed a teacup.

War consumes food and fodder. In recent years, there have been constant natural disasters and poor harvests. The aristocratic families have been playing games with the new emperor and are unwilling to give in even a little.

Emperor Yuwen was obsessed with seeking immortals during his lifetime. When he ascended the throne, there were hardly any good things left in the national treasury, as they had been almost all wasted by Emperor Yuwen.

If he had silver and grain in his hands, would he still tolerate that woman Chen Qinyu growing stronger and stronger and becoming the king now?
Xiao Shen was so angry that he hated Chen Qinyu who was ungrateful, the aristocratic family who controlled him, and even more so, Xiao Liancheng who was so stingy!
The damnable King Huai, who claimed to be his uncle, actually refused to send troops to support Xiao Zheng on the grounds that "monks do not participate in worldly disputes". He was even more unwilling to provide silver and food, and just stayed in his King Huai's Palace, as good as dead.

Now these lowly people dared to go against him. On the wedding day between him and his beloved woman, they ran to Chengtian Gate to cause trouble and prevent Qingqing from entering the palace.

How courageous! Do you really think he dare not touch them?
They are just a bunch of untouchables. What Da Yu lacks the least is untouchables!
Xiao Shen closed his eyes and raised his hand to call the secret guards.

"After tonight, none of those people will be left alive."

The secret guard lowered his eyes, took the order and left.

However, today's problem still needs to be solved, and Lu Qingqing is still blocking outside!

"Come here, draft the decree." Xiao Shen's eyes were gloomy.

On the day when Chen Qinyu proclaimed himself king, Emperor Yuqing issued a manifesto, angrily accusing Chen Qinyu of being disloyal and unfilial, and ordered him to return to the capital to stand trial, otherwise he would send troops to attack.

As a result, that very night, Xiao's army lost a city.

Chen Qinyu slapped Xiao Shen hard in the face with her behavior.

At the morning court the next day, an official submitted a petition, suggesting that Xiao Shen issue an edict to marry Chen Qinyu as his concubine.

Xiao Shen hesitated for only a moment before agreeing.

Chen Qinyu is a woman of extraordinary talent, and she has food and soldiers. If he takes her into the harem, he will be even more powerful and have more bargaining chips to deal with the aristocratic families in the court.

……

...Wu County.

Chen Qinyu raised his hand as soon as he heard the eunuch who announced the imperial decree finish talking nonsense.

Kang Da beside him drew his bow and shot the arrow out.

The arrow pierced deeply into the young eunuch's feet, and he collapsed to the ground in fear.

He was just a few inches away from losing his life. No wonder no one was willing to come and pushed him out without any backing.

"Go back and tell Xiao Shen that I, Chen Qinyu, don't like pretty boys. Tell him to clean his neck and wait for me to kill him!"

Chen Qinyu's voice came from afar, and the little eunuch rolled and climbed onto the carriage.

After the carriage had gone a long way, he was surprised to find that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

How terrible! This is a female demon!
……

……

After hearing the words of the eunuch who delivered the imperial eunuch's order, Xiao Shen smashed another teacup.

Returning to the bedroom, he took out a wooden box from the secret compartment.

"Chen Qinyu, since you are so shameless, I can't keep you here."

……

……

Su Rile's private vault arrived as expected. If Su Qi'er hadn't been right next to her, Pan Yingying would probably have been grinning from ear to ear.

There were boxes of gold items, various gemstones, as well as many calligraphy and paintings and antiques, totaling 33 boxes.

Su Qi'er thought that after giving these things, Pan Yingying would at least keep him for a meal.

Unfortunately, that didn't happen, Pan Yingying was busy going back to her room to count money.

She wouldn't starve to death if she skipped a meal, but if the money wasn't counted, she wouldn't be able to eat.

After sending the people away, Pan Yingying went to the warehouse to put the 33 large boxes into the space, and Yu Chaosheng helped her into the house.

The two men counted and recorded the items in the house. There were 10 boxes of gold items, 5 boxes of gold ornaments, 7 boxes of gems, and the rest were all calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and precious medicinal materials collected by Su Rile.

Without saying a word, Pan Yingying sold all 11 boxes of antiques, calligraphy and paintings to the system.

How can wild vegetables worth a few cents and wild animals worth dozens of taels of silver be as valuable as antiques, calligraphy and paintings!
However, Pan Yingying quickly forced herself to stay awake. She must not get carried away, otherwise Yu Chaosheng would be in trouble.

She scooped out a large handful of gems from the box, found a few small cloth bags to pack them, and asked Honglian and Lumei to deliver them to Xiao Wang and the three female members of the Pan family. Finally, she asked Hong Er to deliver the last small cloth bag to the Lin family's courtyard.

When they took their things and left, Pan Yingying turned around and saw Yu Chaosheng already admiring himself in front of the dressing mirror.

Batian followed at his feet, curiously staring at Yu Chaosheng in the mirror as he gestured with the colorful gemstone necklace.

Upon seeing this, Yu Chaosheng rummaged through the box of gold jewelry for a long time and found a gold belt inlaid with various gems.

Pan Yingying felt that the owner of the belt must have a big belly, otherwise how could it fit so perfectly around his neck.

Putting on a gorgeous golden belt, Batian imitated Yu Chaosheng, walking back and forth in front of the mirror, turning his head and shouting "Ah" to Pan Yingying from time to time.

Pan Yingying found it funny and took out a Polaroid camera from the space and started taking pictures with it.

Pan Yingying: "My son is so handsome!"

Tyrant tilted his head up to 45 degrees and bared his teeth. This was the most perfect angle for him.

Thank you to all the kids who voted for Qizai.

But I still asked for a wave.

Especially the monthly pass.

The next chapter will be published a little later. I have been learning writing methods these days, so I write slowly.
