"At first, I couldn't believe that the Marshal of China, the Emperor's son-in-law, the biological father of the future Emperor, would wear a Miao costume to fight for a woman with the Miao family. It's ridiculous! But, when you climbed the mountain of knives, I had to believe it! To have this kind of ability, and to look so similar to the famous Third Brother Lin, looking at the whole world, how many people could there be? When you light up the magical lamp and raise the flag, I completely understand that this method is the unique style of the legendary Lin San! How can it be fake? Third Brother has come to our Miao village, hahahaha — — "
His complacent laughter spread far away amidst the bonfires that covered the ground, and it ceaselessly drifted about in the forest between the mountains. Lin Wanrong glanced at An Biru and giggled. "Big Sister Master, you've seen it as well. Being outstanding is really a sin!"
"Then aren't you committing crimes every single day?" An Biru rolled her eyes at him, and she was indescribably charming.
Seeing the two of them flirting in front of him, Nie Yuanqing clenched his teeth and shouted, "Brother Alin is pretending to be a Miao and has bad intentions. He intends to cause chaos in Xuzhou and rebel against his superiors. Come on, take him down!"
"Yes sir!" The Xuzhou soldiers roared. They pushed through the crowd and rushed towards Lin Wanrong like wolves and tigers.
The governor wants to arrest Brother Lin? The Miao family didn't expect such a sudden change in the situation. They didn't know the real identity of Lin Wanrong. When they saw that the governor wanted to arrest him, they rushed in front of him and blocked the soldiers with their bodies.
"Get out of the way!" Zha Guo rushed to the front. His only eye flashed with excitement and fierceness. He waved the hatchet in his hand and shouted, "This is the governor's order! Do you all want to rebel? "
"Brother — —" Suddenly, a clear call came from the crowd. The Mitomichai of the Moon Reflection Dock roared. They stood in front of the soldiers like a mountain.
He looked at the delicate figure. Lin Wanrong's heart tightened, and he hurriedly shouted, "Elaine, get out of the way, get out of the way!"
"Brother, bring the Sage Nun away, quickly —" Elaine's eyes shone brightly as she held a gleaming hatchet in her hand. He bravely stood at the forefront of the troops, glaring angrily at the ferocious soldiers. He would rather die than take a step back.
Nie Yuanqing grinned and waved his hand, "All soldiers, heed my orders. I order you to quickly take down Brother Alin! If anyone dares to obstruct the officers from handling the case, kill without mercy! "
"Who dares to make a move?" Gao Qiu's eyes widened. He roared. He took out a shiny gold medal from his bosom and raised it up high in an awe-inspiring manner. "This is the gold medal bestowed by the Emperor! The Commander of the China's Loyal and Brave Army, Marshal Lin San of the Right Army, Lin Daren, was ordered to inspect Sichuan and Shu's Xuzhou. Cutting down corruption and investigating injustice was like the arrival of an emperor. Life and death in the hands of others, kill first and report later! "
He was the leader of thousands of guards in the palace. Everyone he knew was either rich or noble. His roar was like a wake-up call, imposing and imposing.
Under the illumination of the fire, the Imperial Gold Medallion shone with a golden radiance. The golden dragon on it was clearly visible. All the Xuzhou soldiers turned pale with fright and quickly retreated in horror. Even Zha Guo and his brother, who had been very arrogant just now, kept quiet out of fear. They didn't dare to make a sound.
All the Miao family members were shocked. Brother Alin was the Marshal of the Imperial Court? He also had the gold medal bestowed by the Emperor and could kill anyone. Kill first and report later? If that was the case, the prefectural magistrate was also under his control?
Thinking of Brother Alin's miraculous abilities and the words he had just said, all the Miao family members were filled with hope and cheered, "Brother Alin. You have to uphold justice for us — "
"Brother Alin, arrest Chief Zha Guo —"
"Brother Alin. Dismiss Official Nie — "
The young men and women of Yingyue Dock were dumbfounded. Brother Alin, who hung out with them every day. He actually dared to fight against the Great Marshal Hu? If that was the case, then most of the magical stories he told were true?
"I knew it, I knew it," Elaine cried and laughed excitedly. She grabbed Zi Tong's hand and murmured, "Brother is not an ordinary person, he is our hero! Now, the Miao family is saved. The Miao family is saved! "
The Miao family was saved, but you were not! Zi Tong shook her head helplessly. She was even more worried about the fate of her little sister.
Lin Wanrong waved his hands and the excited Miao family members instantly quieted down.
"Please rest assured, fellow villagers." He swept his eyes and said seriously, "Since I'm here, I will definitely punish evil and stubborn people, kill evil tyrants, and cut off corruption. I will return the Xuzhou Prefecture to a bright world! I want all the Hua Miao people in Xuzhou to live a happy and healthy life! This is my promise, and also Brother Alin's promise! "
"Brother Alin, Brother Alin —" All the Miao family members cheered and jumped up, dancing and shouting his name crazily. Even the Miao family elders on the stage were so excited that their faces turned red. They clenched their fists excitedly and stared at him attentively, for fear of missing a word he said.
"Little brother, do you think the days of our Miao family can really become as good as you say?" Sage Nun looked at him and said in a daze.
Lin Wanrong snorted. "There are so many Miao family members who trust Brother Alin so much, but you're the one who doubts him — Sister Master, tell me, should I spank you?!"
"Sure," An Biru looked at him and giggled, "Then let's find a time when the clouds are clear and there's only the two of us. Do you want to use needles or a whip?"
"Oh my god." Lin Wanrong stuck out his tongue when he heard this. Sister An must be a loyal reader of the Thirty-six Dongxuan Sanshou, just like me. This is good, we will have a lot of common topics to talk about in the future.
"Sister, these two things added together are not as satisfying as dripping wax!" He moved closer to Sage Nun's ear and smiled coquettishly.
An Biru's face turned red as she fiercely pinched his waist, "You're courting death! Who did you drip wax with? "
"Hahahaha!" Nie Yuanqing who'd been silent all this time suddenly roared with laughter. "Everyone in the world says that Third Brother Lin is intelligent and quick-witted, and that his plans are flawless. But in my opinion, it's really superficial and extremely childish. What's the use of saying it so nicely? What kind of place is Xuzhou? Do you think it's Jin Ling or the capital where there are people protecting you everywhere? Let me tell you, Xuzhou's surname is Nie, not Lin! Do you think that just because of a gold medal and your identity as the right road marshal, everyone will submit to you? What a joke! Are all the people in the world soft persimmons for you to bully? "
Lin Wanrong nodded and blinked his eyes, "Lord Nie means. This gold medal and official position. It's useless? "
Nie Yuanqing said proudly, "It doesn't matter what gold medal it is. It doesn't matter how high your official position is, when you come to Xuzhou, you have to stand aside! Money, soldiers, and power, that's everything! It's laughable that you think you're smart and dare to barge into Xuzhou alone. How ignorant! Lord Consort, you asked for it. Don't blame me! "
This Nie Yuanqing seemed to have a deep understanding of him. Lin Wanrong laughed and nodded, "What a good money, soldiers, and power. Respect, respect. Lord Nie really has a way! But how did you know I came alone? Didn't you see, Brother Gao? He's the commander of the guards in the palace. He's skilled in martial arts and can fight a hundred people alone! This Four Virtues is quick-witted and also my right-hand man — "
"Can these two even be considered human?!" The moment Nie Yuanqing said this, Old Gao and the Four Virtues were enraged at the same time, but the governor didn't take it seriously, "Strength depends on the blade! Lord Consort, don't tell me you're so stupid. I really feel sorry for the two princesses who are as beautiful as flowers and jade!
Lin Wanrong scoffed coldly, "What if we add in the tens of thousands of Luzhou Navy and infantry?"
His voice was ice cold. His expression was deep and indiscernible. Nie Yuanqing was stunned when he heard this. His expression changed and he laughed, "Marshal. Are you trying to scare me? I am the prefectural magistrate of Xuzhou. If Luzhou troops enter. They will pass through Xingwen under my jurisdiction. That Xingwen County Magistrate Wu Yuan is my trusted aide. You are my confidant. How can I not tell you about such a big matter?! Moreover, when this official left the residence a few days ago, the troops and horses in Luzhou were still quiet. Don't tell me they're fast — "
"It seems like Lord Nie isn't too stupid. You know that was a few days ago! "Lin Wanrong squinted his eyes. He laughed, "Coincidentally, I know that Xingwen County Magistrate Wu Yuan. Not only that. I also know that he has an only son called Wu Shidao. I also know that the counties under Lord Nie's jurisdiction have different amounts of silver handed over to the prefectural government every year. You have two books of accounts, one in the open and one in the dark! Also, there will be some personal letters in the Nie Manor. In the hands of the county magistrates — with all due respect, this county magistrate Wu is much smarter than you! "
Looking at the letter in his hand, the small regular script on the cover page was written by him. This Prince Consort Lin didn't seem to be so stupid. Could it be that he had prepared for this? Nie Yuanqing's expression changed, "What's the point of having an account book? I have the final say in Xuzhou! You don't have any soldiers or power, and you are alone. I can easily take you down … "
"Where is Cheng Zili?!" Lin Wanrong roared and cut him off.
"I am here!" A tall and muscular man stood out from the crowd and cupped his fists respectfully.
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Big Brother Cheng. If someone doubts the ability of the Luzhou Navy, then show him!! "
"Yes, Sir! My sons. Come out and take a look! " With his roar, more than 20 strong men from the Luzhou Navy who had sneaked in first stood out in unison. All of them were burly and had cold faces. The murderous aura they exuded made it obvious that they were experienced masters. How could the Xuzhou garrison be compared to them?
"Lord Nie, long time no see!" Cheng Zili sneered and looked at Nie Yuanqing.
Lord Nie had been in Xuzhou for a long time and was very familiar with the people in the surrounding prefectures. He had also met Cheng Zili a few times. At this time, when he saw the commander of the Luzhou Navy personally appear, he knew that something had happened.
"How dare you stop me with just a few dozen people?!" His eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "Xuzhou Prefectural Army, listen up! Capture Brother Alin immediately, dead or alive! If you can kill him, I will reward you with 10,000 taels of silver! "
There was a saying that there would be brave men under a high reward. These Xuzhou soldiers had lived under his despotic power for a long time and were already afraid of the prefectural government. At this time, when they heard the temptation of a high reward, they were ready to move.
"Who dares?!" Gao Qiu shouted angrily and stood in front of Lin Wanrong to protect him. His eyes were like lightning as they swept across the surroundings. "10,000 taels of silver, you need to be blessed to enjoy it! Attacking the imperial envoy of the imperial court and the marshal of China is a great crime of treason. Your entire family will be executed! Don't you want to live anymore? "
It was Lord Nie who pulled out his sword. His eyes were bloodshot as he said fiercely, "Brothers, don't forget the silver you have received! Let me tell you, this Lin San was specially sent by the emperor to rectify Xuzhou! If we don't kill him today, no one will be able to escape death! He has more than 20 people by his side and we have tens of thousands of soldiers. What do we have to be afraid of? Kill — "
This Lord Nie was indeed a ruthless person. He had tied everyone to the same boat. It had become a situation where everyone was bound together for good or ill!
The Xuzhou soldiers had obviously received a lot of benefits from him. After being bewitched by him, they immediately became anxious. They brandished their swords and spears and rushed over. "Kill him!"
Zha Guo and Nie Yuanqing were locusts on the same rope. Seeing the government officials make a move, Zha Guo and Nie Yuanqing were in the same boat. They saw that they had no way out. They waved the hatchet in their hands. They roared, "Kill Brother Alin and take back our Hmong village!"
The two groups of soldiers gathered together and in the blink of an eye, they rushed over with murderous intent.
"No one is allowed to touch our Brother Alin!" All the villagers of Yingyue Dock and the Hmong village roared in unison. They unsheathed their hatchet and stood in front of the raging Xuzhou soldiers! Both sides stared at each other angrily and pushed each other. A battle was about to break out.
"If that's the case. Then don't blame me for being merciless! "Lin Wanrong snorted coldly and waved his big hand.
"Screech!" A whistling arrow soared into the sky. It pierced the tranquility of the night sky.
"Kill!" There was an earth-shattering roar in the surroundings. The sound of rushing footsteps was accompanied by the loud swishing of long swords. It was as if there were ten thousand horses in unison. It reverberated in the valley! Countless people rushed over from all directions like a tide. The sound of swords was piercingly cold. The whole mountain was filled with endless little black dots. The burning torches were like the morning stars in the sky. There were countless of them!
The thousands of people who rushed at the front. The leader was a burly man with a beard. Before he arrived, his majestic voice was already echoing in everyone's ears, "I am Zhang Qun. I lead the Luzhou Navy's infantry battalion, a total of 20,000 soldiers to greet Marshal Lin! "
"Good!" Lin Wanrong shouted. His face was filled with murderous intent, "Brother Zhang, you came at the right time. Please lead the troops to protect all the Miao villagers. At the same time, clear the Xuzhou garrison. If you encounter anyone who resists, kill them all! "
"Roger! Brothers, protect Marshal Lin, protect all the Miao villagers! Charge with me! "
"Charge!" The sky was filled with murderous cries. The tens of thousands of Luzhou soldiers stirred up a cloud of dust. They rushed over at high speed. The bright blade reflected the radiance of the hot fire and the cold moon. It shone with a faint cold light. Cheng Zili and Zhang Qun were both Li Tai's old subordinates. How could the Xuzhou scattered soldiers compare to the Luzhou army that was trained?
This display of military might and grandeur instantly struck terror into the hearts of all the Black Miao and Xuzhou's garrison troops. Their legs turned to jelly. They had long since gotten used to flaunting their might. How could they be a match for the Luzhou Navy if they were to fight for real? Hearing Marshal Lin's order to kill. Who dared to resist? Before the soldiers could even reach them, someone had already surrendered. With one person taking the lead, everyone else obeyed. In a short while, the clanking sounds of swords and spears hitting the ground could be heard. The cries of people begging for mercy were loud and clear.
How could the Xuzhou garrison be of any use if they were to disperse at the slightest touch? Lin Wanrong shook his head and scoffed.
The surrounding Miao villagers saw the tens of thousands of soldiers descending from the sky. They immediately cheered. Could Sir Nie and Zha Guo still overturn the heavens now?
The Black Miao soldiers saw that even the official army had surrendered. They instantly widened their eyes and looked at Zha Guo and Zha Long helplessly. Their hearts trembled.
"Brother, what should we do?" Zha Long's legs were trembling in fear. He could not hold the hatchet in his hand steadily and his voice was trembling.
Zha Guo's face was pale. His only eye shone with a murderous light. He gritted his teeth in hatred, "Since we've chosen this path, there's no turning back. Let's fight! Brothers of the Black Miao, follow me and kill! "
One thousand against ten thousand, and the opponent was even a well-trained official army. This was obviously a death wish. Looking at the Xuzhou Navy's disdainful gaze and the cold blades in their hands, thousands of Black Miao soldiers followed behind Zha Guo and Zha Guo with trembling hands. However, they had long been deserted and could no longer be tolerated in the Miao Village. There was no other way but to charge forward and die.
An Biru held her little brother's hand tightly and hesitated to speak. Lin Wanrong shook his head and smiled, "Sister, what are you trying to say?"
Sage Nun blushed and sighed, "The Black Miao are also Miao people. They're all my clansmen! Although they've made a mistake, they were lured by Zha Guo and Zha Guo. How can we kill them all?! Our Miao family has always had a small population … "
"So sister wants to plead for them. This is not the style of the White Lotus Virgin!" Lin Wanrong was amused. An Biru rolled her eyes at him in embarrassment and pinched his waist hard.
"Don't worry." Lin Wanrong chuckled, "I won't kill people recklessly! I'll leave these Black Miao to you. You can do whatever you want! "
An Biru was overjoyed when she heard that. She widened her eyes and asked, "Little brother, are you serious?"
"If you don't believe me, I'll drip some wax on you!" Little brother smiled pervertedly as his gaze roamed all over her voluptuous body.
Sage Nun blushed and scoffed, "What wax! In the future, you're not allowed to read those evil books when I'm around! If there's anything you don't understand, I'll teach you personally … "
Lin Wanrong blinked his eyes in shock. It can't be. I'm the direct descendant of Dongxuan Zi's Thirty-six Sanshou. How did I end up being taught by Master and sister?
"You don't believe me?" An Biru rolled her eyes at him. She whispered into his ear, "Don't forget. I'm the White Lotus Virgin, the Miao Village Sage Nun! I've been searching for strange things and reading books since I was young. I've studied more than a hundred times more than you! It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to use them until I met you. You've finally come in handy. Hehe … "
She laughed lewdly. Her hand that was holding onto Lin Wanrong's was trembling slightly. Her face was as red as fire. It was the first time she said such hot words. Lin Wanrong was touched. This was Master's sister expressing her gratitude. However, her personality was different from others. The way she expressed it was also very unique. She looked lewd on the outside. However, there was a special feeling of gentleness. This was the tacit understanding between the two of them!
"Sister. Thank you! "Lin Wanrong leaned over and kissed her ear. He giggled, "I'll leave these Black Miao warriors to you! However, there's one thing you must remember. The culprit must be punished and the guilty must be investigated. This is only fair to the other Miao villagers. Only then will the masses be convinced! "
"Do I need you to teach me this?" Sister An held his hand. She laughed silently. She used to lead tens of thousands of people in the White Lotus Sect. She wasn't any worse than her little brother in terms of knowledge!
Seeing the Zha Guo brothers leading thousands of Black Miao warriors charging towards them. An Biru's pretty face turned cold. She said loudly, "All Black Miao Miduo. As long as you put down your machetes immediately, I promise in the name of the Sage Nun. You're still a member of my Miao Village, my brothers and sisters! "
The Sage Nun personally invited them. The temptation was indeed great. The thousands of Black Miao warriors couldn't help but slow down. Their faces showed signs of hesitation. Zha Guo roared, "There's no turning back. Let's go back. Will the Red Miao and White Miao let us go? Brothers, we have no way out. Kill with me … "
"Zha Guo. Do you know what you're doing? "An Biru shouted angrily," You're trying to destroy the Black Miao! Our Miao family has several branches. We're from the same clan, there's no difference between us. You're the one who forcefully dragged the Black Miao brothers out. You're opposing the other brothers and sisters. Today, you're pushing them to their deaths. You're going to be the Miao family's eternal sinner! Brothers, please come back. Please come back. My parents, wives, and children are all waiting for you in the stronghold. We're a family. There's nothing that can't be discussed! "
"Yes, the Sage Nun is right. We're a family. Come back! "The few elders of the Miao family shouted in unison. Their words were sincere.
The Black Miao warriors hesitated for a while. Finally, one of them threw down his machete and knelt down, crying, "Sage Nun …"
"Please forgive us, Sage Nun and elders!" With one person taking the lead, the others knelt down and cried. Zha Guo let out a long sigh when he saw his most trusted guards abandoning him. He swung his machete and used all his strength to slash his neck.
"Brother …" Zha Long followed beside him and hugged his shoulders desperately in shock.
An Biru shook her head coldly and said in disdain, "There's no coward in the Miao family! Zha Guo, you'd better wait for the villagers to punish you! "
With the Miao family's hatred for them, the outcome was predictable. Zha Guo threw down his machete and sighed dejectedly. He dared not raise his head anymore.
The garrison surrendered and the Black Miao repented. Everything happened in the blink of an eye under the pressure of tens of thousands of mighty soldiers. Everything was over before he could realize what was going on. Nie Yuanqing's face was ghastly pale and his legs were trembling. He clenched his teeth silently and retreated secretly.
Lin Wanrong was observant and alert. How could he let go of the culprit? He turned around and smiled coldly, "Why, Sir Nie, are you leaving now? Didn't you want to teach me how to be powerful? "
"I'll kill you!" Nie Yuanqing roared angrily and pounced at him with all his might.
Gao Qiu had been waiting impatiently for a long time. He dashed forward and punched his wrist. Sir Nie cried out in pain and the machete in his hand fell to the ground. Gao Qiu was about to capture him when a bright light flashed. A sharp dagger appeared in Nie Yuanqing's hand. His face was ferocious as he stabbed his lower abdomen.
"You want to die? Do you think it's that easy? "Old Gao laughed and kicked the back of his hand. The dagger flew out.
Nie Yuanqing's face was filled with pain but there was a sense of relief in his eyes. Lin Wanrong blinked and took a few steps forward. He punched Nie Yuanqing's face. Sir Nie groaned in pain. His jaw was dislocated and a black medicine bag fell out from between his teeth. He did not manage to bite through it.
Old Gao gasped. This bastard was really ruthless. Other than cutting his abdomen, he even bit poison. It was obvious that he was ready to end his life at any moment. It was pathetic to be an official like this!
"Ah, ah …" Nie Yuanqing could not speak anymore. He looked at Lin Wanrong while waving his hands and feet. His gaze was filled with hatred.
"It's not time for you to die yet." Lin Wanrong smiled coldly. "You've embezzled the blood and sweat of Xuzhou's people all these years. Where did it come from? Spit it out for me. Otherwise, I have a thousand ways to make you suffer a fate worse than death! "
"Ah, ah!" Sir Nie's eyes were filled with deep fear. His body curled into a ball. It was obvious that he had heard of Brother Lin San's methods.
"General Zhang Qun greets Marshal Lin!" Cheng Zili brought Zhang Qun over excitedly.
Lin Wanrong hurriedly helped him up. "Brother Zhang, no need to be so polite. It's all thanks to you and Brother Cheng that the matter was accomplished today! Please tell the brothers that I'll be holding a banquet in Yunlian County tomorrow. Drink to your heart's content with everyone! "
Marshal Lin was as straightforward as the rumors said. The bearded Zhang Qun nodded excitedly. "This general obeys! To be able to see Marshal Lin with my own eyes. It's an honor for all our brothers! "
Cheng Zili whispered, "Marshal Lin, how should we deal with the Xuzhou garrison?"
"They're rotten to the core. What's the point of coming here? "Lin Wanrong sighed." Investigate these people one by one. Great evildoers will be dealt with according to the law. Minor evildoers. Fine them with no money, remove their armor and return to the fields. Also, ask Brother Zhang to transfer four thousand elite troops from the Xuzhou infantry camp. Station in Xuzhou. Maintain law and order. Prevent Nie Yuanqing's faction from taking the opportunity to cause trouble! One thing must be noted. When the troops are stationed, they must not disturb the villagers, whether it's the Miao family or the Hua family. We must not offend them. Not only must we live in harmony with them. We must also make things difficult for our hometown. When the farming season is busy, help them plow and harvest. When the farming season is idle, pave bridges and build roads for them. This Nie Yuanqing has brought disaster to Xuzhou. The people's hearts must be won back bit by bit! "
The two of them had seen the chaos in Xuzhou today with their own eyes. They deeply agreed with Marshal Lin's words.
The surrounding villagers of the Miao family were already in an uproar. Zha Guo was imprisoned, and the prefectural magistrate, who had been evil for many years, was also taken down by Brother Alin. The two mountains that were pressing on their heads were completely razed overnight. How could they not be happy?
If Brother Alin's victory at the Flower Mountain Festival was enough to make people admire him, then when he eradicated the cancer in Xuzhou and returned peace to the Miao Village, that admiration had long turned into infinite love and respect. Capable, loyal, amiable, and caring for the people. Who wouldn't like such an elder brother?
"Brother Alin, Brother Alin —" The surrounding Miao family clapped rhythmically and shouted his name loudly. Cheers resounded through the mountains and fields.
"Marshal Lin," Han Nong walked to his side and murmured a few times. It was the first time he was called that, so he was not used to it. Thinking of the experience of beating him down the mountain the night before, the old man was amused and nervous. He said carefully, "Please say a few words to the Miao family!"
Lin Wanrong smiled and waved his hand. "Uncle, I'm not Marshal Lin. In Miao Village, I'll always be that Brother Alin! I only hope that the next time I go to Jadefall Dock, you won't chase me away! "
The Great Elder laughed. Lin Wanrong suddenly jumped onto the stage and waved his hands. "Fellow villagers —"
The crowd was silent at first, then burst into cheers. The applause rolled like a tide and lasted for a long time. He bowed three times in a row before slightly quieting down.
"First, I want to announce a piece of news." Lin Wanrong looked around and said loudly, "The Emperor has issued an imperial edict. Because of the birth of the imperial grandson, the whole of China will be exempted from taxes for three years! In other words, for three years, whether it's the Miao family or the Hua family, please do not worry about harvesting and grazing. You don't have to pay a single cent! "
"Wow —" The applause was like a tide, and the crowd was excited. Even shouting a thousand slogans was not as real as this good news.
"Secondly, the Miao family in Xuzhou has just gotten rid of the traitors and there are hundreds of businesses waiting to prosper. They urgently need construction funds to start farming. I will report to the Emperor to first allocate twenty thousand taels of silver for the Miao family's elders to discuss and build!"
Twenty thousand taels of silver was not a small amount. To the Miao village, it was like sending charcoal in the snow. All the Miao family members were blinking their eyes when they heard this. They were so excited that their hearts were about to jump out. In an instant, there was a thunderous applause.
An Biru secretly pulled him and said sternly, "Nonsense! The national treasury must be empty after the battle against the Turks. Twenty thousand taels of silver? Even if you want Xu Wei's life, he can't give it to you! Tell me honestly, do you want to pay for it yourself? "
As expected, nothing could be hidden from Sister An. Lin Wanrong bit her ear and chuckled. "If you want to pay for it from the national treasury, of course not. But when I raided Prince Cheng's residence, I made a small profit. There's still Xu Wei's Misty Rain Painting at home. I plan to sell it and ask Old Xu to draw a Hundred Birds and a Thousand Flowers Painting. I'll sell each bird and each flower. There are also some broken diamonds that the French people gave me in the past. Adding them together, there's about twenty thousand taels of silver. This is the pocket money that I've secretly saved up. Don't tell Qing Xuan and the others about it! "
An Biru's eyes were sparkling. She looked at him gently. "You've never been the one to lose out. What happened to you this time?"
"Who said that I'm losing out?" Lin Wanrong laughed lewdly. "Twenty thousand taels of silver is my betrothal gift to the Miao village! I'm going to marry their baby. I'm going to make a fortune this time! "
"You little thief!" The Sage Nun chuckled and poked his forehead with her finger. She was incomparably happy.
"En, en." Lin Wanrong hurriedly reminded her with a serious expression. The Sage Nun was in a daze and momentarily forgot where she was going. When she came back to her senses, she saw that all the villagers below the stage were staring at her with their eyes wide open. Clearly, they had never seen the Sage Nun in such a flirtatious manner. Even though An Biru was smart and experienced, she couldn't help but blush.
"The third matter," Lin Wanrong's old face was also a little hot. He hurriedly said loudly, "Due to Xuzhou Prefectural Magistrate Yuanqing's excessive donations, corruption, and rebellion, he has been temporarily imprisoned to await trial. In this period of time, other than military affairs and laws, the Miao family's affairs, big or small, will be temporarily discussed by the Sage Nun and the various Elders, and then reported to the Sichuan-Shan Governor's Office for implementation …"
"Hua —" The applause was so loud that the blue sky seemed to collapse. The various Elders on the stage were so excited that their hearts were about to jump out. This was Brother Alin fulfilling his promise step by step. Although the Elders Guild was temporarily acting on behalf of the Miao family's affairs due to the vacancy in the prefecture, it was already a huge step forward. For the first time, the Miao family had the right to speak in the prefecture. How could they not be overjoyed?
These three matters were one more exciting than the other. The magical Brother Alin had brought too many surprises to the Miao Village, and everyone was sincerely convinced by him.
"The last matter, which is also the most important matter —" Lin Wanrong's stiff face suddenly smiled, "— The Flower Mountain Festival's blind date is only halfway through. Brothers and sisters, what are you waiting for? Don't waste such a good time! "
All the Miao family members let out a burst of knowing laughter, and their cheers shook the sky. Tonight was really full of surprises. First, it was the wonderful duet between Brother Alin and the Sage Nun, followed by the destruction of the Xuzhou crooks. The climax came wave after wave, so much so that they even forgot the most important event. After Brother Alin mentioned it, the blind date continued in full swing. The Miao family members sang to their heart's content, and the beautiful song echoed in the night sky for a long time.
Lin Wanrong let out a long sigh of relief. When he turned around, Sister An had already disappeared without even saying goodbye. While he was puzzled, he suddenly heard a few anxious and angry shouts in the wind, "Let me go, let me go!"
The voice sounded a little familiar. Looking up, it was Cheng Zili and the others who stopped a girl from the Miao family, and the girl was shouting loudly.
He hurried forward and said with a smile, "Brother Cheng, this is my friend!! Zi Tong, are you looking for me?! "
Cheng Zili hurriedly let them go, and Zi Tong stared at him coldly, "I'm not looking for you, Marshal Lin. I'm looking for a cruel and ungrateful man from the Hua family!"
Isn't that me?! Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Zi Tong, don't mock me. Am I really that bad?"
"More than that, you're ten times, a hundred times, and a thousand times worse than what I said!" Zi Tong gritted her teeth and looked at him with hatred. After a long time, she sighed, "Brother Alin, Elaine is gone!"
