History's Strongest Son-In-Law Living With The In-Laws

Chapter 90: Truly awesome and shocking!

Translator: 549690339

Jin Zhuo, the Earl of Xuanwu, was very depressed.

He had just received the guest list for Zhang Jin and Xu Qianqian’s engagement ceremony.

The situation was not looking good.

Governor Zhang Lin had finally revealed his fierce fangs.

There were already signs of them attacking the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu from all directions.

A few guests that the Earl felt should not be attending were also present.

The first one was Tang Yun, the son of the Earl of Jinhai in the North.

Your uncle Jin hai and my uncle Xuan Wu may have some conflicts, but that is also a conflict between us old aristocrats.

Now, you are openly standing on the side of the new political party. What do you mean by this?

The second one was the second son of the North-guarding Marquis, Nangong ping.

This North Garrison Liege, Nangong ao, was a famous general of the Yue country and was the commander of the army in the North.

He was a noble, in between the new and old noble.

First of all, he had a fief, but it was not very big, only 800 square kilometers.

His ancestor was only a third-class Earl. After Nangong ao joined the Army, he fought wars everywhere and made great contributions. The king then promoted him to a Marquis.

The North-guarding Marquis had always been a neutral party.

He was impartial between the old nobles and the new political party.

And now, he actually sent his second son to attend Zhang Pu’s engagement.

This was a very bad sign. It meant that the North-guarding Marquis’s stance had shifted.

The third guest was the last person the Earl of Xuanwu wanted to see.

The messenger of Yin Yuan Association.

What did Yin Yuan Association do?

It was one of the largest money houses in the entire Great Yan Dynasty. It held an astronomical amount of wealth and its business was spread across more than ten countries.

For the past few hundred years, the yin Yuan Association had a very good relationship with the old aristocratic families, and they had a very close relationship with each other.

It could be said that the hidden faction was the most solid backing for the old nobles.

Previously, the yin Yuan Association and the new political party had drawn a clear line and had almost no interest in each other.

And now, Yin Yuan Association actually sent an envoy to attend Zhang Jin’s wedding?

What kind of signal was this?

Could it be that Yin Yuan Association was also going to change their stance?

To the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and the entire aristocratic family, this was a disaster.

The most important thing was!

The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was also in the hands of the yinyuan Association.

The previous Earl of Xuanwu owed a huge debt, and the debtor was the yinyuan Association.

Not to mention the fact that the yinyuan Association would go to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to collect their debts, even if they disclosed the financial situation of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, it would be a huge disaster.

After hesitating for a long time, the Earl looked for Shen lang and said with a gentle tone, ” Lang ‘er, don’t go to Zhang Pu and Xu Qianqian’s engagement.

Shen lang immediately rejected her.

“How can I not go?” Shen lang said, ” she is my ex-wife after all. Once husband and wife, a hundred Days of Love.

As a man, there was a point of pleasure that many people had never experienced before.

Attending an ex-girlfriend’s or ex-wife’s wedding, and bringing a wife who was more beautiful and noble than her.

Not only that, but he was even more handsome and radiant than his ex-girlfriend’s groom.

“Lang ‘er, speak properly.” The Earl said.

Shen lang said, ” father-in-law, I have prepared for a long time for her engagement. I wrote a book for her and even made a suit for her. If I don’t go, won’t my clothes be in vain? Wouldn’t that book have been written for nothing?”

The Earl said, ” Xu Qianqian cried the whole day. Xu Guangyun smashed the house. How did you write your book for nothing? ”

It’s more than that?

In just a few days, Xu Qianqian and Xu Guangyun had become notorious. They were almost drowned by rumors and saliva.

The Earl’s expression was serious as he said, ” lang ‘er, the situation is not looking good. Zhang Ji has woven a huge net and is coming towards the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu from all directions. The so-called engagement ceremony is just a rehearsal. Once you go, you will be the target of everyone and you will suffer a great loss.

“the earl of jinhai from the north also sent people over?” shen lang said seriously.

The Earl nodded.

“Our creditor is here too?” Shen lang asked.

This time, the Earl was really surprised.

“Not only that,” The Earl said, ” there’s another important person. His arrival will deal a fatal blow to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

This was what made the Earl the most disappointed.

Shen lang squinted his eyes. Another important figure? It would make the palace of the Earl fall into an absolute passive state!

Who was this person?

This should be a flag-like big Shot, but this time, he had changed his stance.

He couldn’t help but search his mind for the big shots around him.

“North-guarding Marquis, Nangong ao, has he sent someone?” Shen lang said, ” then it definitely won’t be the Prince. It can only be the second or third son.

Then, the Earl looked at Shen lang in disbelief.

He had just received the list and had not shown it to anyone.

Was there really such a smart person in this world?

This was completely different from reciting the ” Jin family’s instructions ” in one night. This was merely a super-strong memory, but this was wisdom.

Uncle Black Tortoise passed the name list over.

Then, he looked at the map on the wall and sighed. lang ‘er, I’m really feeling a little exhausted. My eyes are blurred, and I feel like a building is about to collapse.

Shen lang was stunned. His father-in-law had never been so dejected before.

A powerful man would never show his weakness in front of others.

All along, although Jin Zhuo’s talent was not high, he had always played the role of a strong and determined Earl of Xuanwu. He allowed everyone in the palace of the Earl to be protected under his wings.

And now that the storm was brewing, he really felt that it was a little difficult to support himself.

He actually showed his weak side in front of Shen lang.

Shen lang was shocked.

I can’t do that. I still have to live off a woman and enjoy wealth.

I’ve only had a good life for a little more than a month, and the better and more satisfying days are coming.

The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu could not fall. Furthermore, it had to become stronger and stronger.

No, he had to make his father-in-law pull himself together.

......

Shen lang closed his eyes and entered the Zhuge Liang mode. It was the ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ version and not the ‘Records of the Three Kingdoms’ version.

After opening his eyes, Shen lang revealed a calm smile as if everything was under his control.

“Father-in-law, actually, everything in front of you is very clear, not blurred at all. Although it’s a little dangerous, as long as we know ourselves and our enemies, it won’t be difficult for us to win. Why are you so pessimistic?”

The Earl said, ” it’s hard to know yourself and your enemy. Zhang Ji’s methods are extremely vicious. He’s bold and unconstrained. It’s impossible to figure him out. Last time, in Dongjiang County, the Earl was forced into a dead end by him before he could figure out what was going on. Then, he killed the Earl with one strike and became Zhang Ji’s stepping stone to his meteoric rise.”

Shen lang sneered, ” otherwise, Zhang Ji’s next move might seem confusing, but it’s actually clear and simple. I can see through it with one look. Let me analyze it for you.

“Really?” the Earl asked.

“Of course,” Zhuge lang nodded.

“Everyone, back off and call old master Lin over,” the Earl said.

After a while, the Earl’s most trusted aide, Master Lin, arrived.

Then, the two of them waited for Shen Lang’s analysis.

Oh no, it was a performance!

......

“Father-in-law, Master Lin, the main opponent of the palace of the Earl is Zhang Ji,”

in order for me to live off a woman and enjoy wealth, I often put myself in Zhang Ji’s position and think of ways to destroy the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

cough, cough. the Earl reminded Shen lang to be careful with his words and not be too ruthless.

Shen lang said,”you can only play the game with the chess pieces in your hands.” We should do what the enemy is most afraid of.”

“What is the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu most afraid of? First, you’ll be isolated and without protection. You’ll feel like you’re surrounded by enemies.”

“The palace of the Lanshan Viscount has already handed over his fief and military power. The palace of the count of Jinhai and the new political party have joined forces to kill us. It seems that the entire aristocratic faction in Tiannan province only has one Jade pillar that can hold up the sky, and that is the palace of the zhenbei Marquis.”

“The North-guarding Marquis, Nangong ao, is a major military figure with nearly 100000 troops. His family also has 800 square kilometers of land and 2000 private troops.”

the king’s new governance is like the sun. The residence of the count of zhenbei is like a big tree that blocks the scorching sun for us. To a certain extent, the residence of the Earl of Xuanwu is under the protection of his shadow.

although the Northguard Marquis has always been neutral and barely dealt with the old nobles, and he didn’t even send anyone to my wedding, it doesn’t stop him from sheltering our family, because his family has a land and a private army.

this time, Zhang Ji directly removed this Jade pillar and shifted North-guarding Marquis ‘position to the new political party. In this way, the entire Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu will become the largest and oldest aristocratic family in Tiannan province. We will be exposed to the new governance of the king alone.”

The Earl of Xuanwu nodded. This was what he felt. When he found out that the count of zhenbei had sent his second son to attend Zhang Jin’s engagement party, he had been terrified.

The North-guarding Marquis left, leaving the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu standing alone in the storm.

Shen lang said calmly, ” father-in-law, you can’t rely on others. You can only rely on yourself. The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is destined to fight alone in Tiannan province.”

North-guarding Marquis does have 800 square kilometers of territory and 2000 private troops, but that’s nothing compared to the military power of 100000 soldiers. That’s why he’s on the wrong side.

“However, Zhang Ji’s move was a feint.” he wants us to make a wrong judgment, ” Shen lang said. he wants us to invest our strategic resources in the northern Garrison Marquis ‘residence, and he wants us to do our best to change the northern Garrison Marquis’s position.

“However, we can not invest any resources. If the North-guarding Marquis wants to change his stance, then let him be!”

next, the second thing we fear the most is to have our money cut off. Shen lang said, ” I know that the palace of the Earl doesn’t have any profits or savings. Instead, we have a huge debt. Once you lose your silver, the consequences will be too horrible to imagine.”

after completing the first two steps, if I were Zhang Ji, I would use my most fatal move to completely cut off the arm of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu and end the life of the palace!

and the third step of this killer move is the battle of Gold Mountain Island, to finish it in one battle.

if I’m not wrong, the king is about to issue a decree. He wants to settle this once and for all and completely determine the ownership of the gold Mountain Island.

Zhang Ji and Zhu Rong have been planning for the battle for the gold Mountain Island for more than half a year. So, to a certain extent, it seems that we are destined to lose the gold Mountain Island.

the moment we completely lose the gold Mountain Island, our creditors will feel that we have the ability to repay the debt without any compensation. They will make up their mind to publicly ask for the debt. When the debt crisis of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu breaks out, what should we do? ”

“It’s impossible not to repay the debt, even the monarch will take the opportunity to put pressure on you. I don’t know how much our debt is, but if I’m not wrong, it’s definitely impossible to pay it off.”

“Also, the collateral for this debt is gaze Cliff Island, right? This debt contract should be due soon, right?”

The Earl looked at Shen lang, speechless.

He had not revealed any of these secrets.

His wisdom was truly close to that of a demon.

“To borrow an astronomical debt, you must have something as collateral. The previous Earl couldn’t use his land as collateral, so he could only use gazing Cliff Island.”

“The four main sources of income for the palace of the Earl are the grains and silk from our fief, and the salt and iron from the gazing Cliff Island,” Shen lang said.

“The salt and iron from gazing Cliff Island accounts for more than 60% of the total income of the palace of the Earl. At that time, our creditors will ask the king to make a decision and demand the island.”

“Once we lose gazing Cliff Island, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu will not only suffer from serious injuries, but our arms and legs will also be cut off. We’ll lose sixty percent of our financial resources, and our only choice will be to disband the Army.”

as an old noble, without an Army, they are like wolves without their claws and teeth. They are like meat on a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered. If we lose the Army, we will not be able to protect our fief. By then, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu will be finished.”

“If I were Zhang Ji, I would use these three steps to destroy the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.”

“Please advise me, father-in-law, please advise me, Master Lin!”

After he was done acting cool, Shen lang bowed slightly.

the earl was completely stunned.

He was really enlightened.

After Shen Lang’s analysis, the fog in front of him seemed to have been cleared.

The Earl and Master Lin looked at each other and exchanged looks of shock.

There was really an aura rising from the soles of his feet and rushing to his brain.

It was unbelievable!

How could there be such a smart person in this world?
