(Congratulations to Langli Langlang for becoming the new leader of this book. I'm so grateful! I'm begging for monthly votes.)
Political correctness was a scary word.
No one could violate it.
No matter what you thought, you could not violate it in public, or you would die.
No matter how high your status was, no matter how powerful you were.
Once you touched it, you would be blown to pieces.
For example, in medieval Europe, anyone who dared to question the Emperor would die.
How many scientists were burned to death in that dark era?
European emperors and kings all needed to be crowned by the Emperor.
Another example was racial discrimination in the United States.
No matter how much you looked down on people of color, in public, no matter if you were a superstar or the president of a country, you could not say that you looked down on black people.
No matter who said it in public, their career would be completely ruined.
Another example was Confucianism in ancient China after the imperial examinations.
No one could deny it, anyone who dared to deny it would be doomed.
Even with the extreme centralization of power in the Qing Empire, the emperor had to confer the title of Duke Yan to the Kong family.
And in the world where the Great Yan Dynasty was located, the imperial examinations had been implemented for hundreds of years.
Although civil and military existed side by side, at least in the officialdom, civil officials accounted for 60% of the official positions.
Martial arts were still flourishing, because scholars also practiced martial arts.
For example, Zhang Chong's martial arts were actually quite good, but he never had the chance to show it.
After the destruction of the ancient world, this world's civilization was built entirely on ancient books.
The Four Books and Five Classics were the civilization of the entire eastern world, the sacred scriptures of the entire eastern civilization.
After the imperial examinations were implemented, a large number of civil officials grasped power. Just like in China's history, they had to desperately raise the status of the Sage for their own interests.
In ancient China, after the Song Dynasty, Confucius was no longer a human, but a god.
In China before the mid-nineteenth century, no one could defile Sage Confucius, anyone who touched it would die.
Of course, Confucianism did not reign supreme in the Great Yan Dynasty. But Confucianism had already occupied an absolute leading position among many theories.
So, in the State of Yue, what was the most sacred building that could not be violated?
It was not the palace, nor the royal mausoleum.
It was the temple!
The Sage was enshrined there.
They were no longer humans, but the gods of the Great Yan Dynasty.
Among them, Sage Confucius was a supreme god.
Every year on the first day of the new year, the Monarch would come to the shrine to pay his respects.
The temple was the equivalent of the pyramids in Egypt, the Capitol Hill in America, and the Independence Monument.
If someone were to set fire to the Sacred Temple, what would the consequences be?
The entire State of Yue would be shaken.
All the civil officials had to fight.
How could this be?
How dare they burn the Sacred Temple? Aren't they trying to dig out our roots?
How dare he blaspheme a Saint?
He had committed a heinous crime.
Imagine what Egypt would do if the pyramids were blown up.
If the Capitol Hill and the Independence Monument were hit, how would the US react?
At that time, who would care about Jin Mucong's rape of an innocent girl?
Everything had to make way for it.
All the impeachment memorials from the scholars could only have one purpose, and that was to give the scholars an explanation.
The Monarch would also express his anger.
However, would the Monarch really be infuriated?
Not necessarily!
Every year on the first day of the new year, he would come to the Sacred Temple to pay his respects to Sage Confucius.
This Ning Yuanxian did not like Confucianism from the bottom of his heart.
However, there was no other way. The emperor of the Great Yan Empire already had the tendency to respect Confucianism alone. The other countries could only follow him.
Even if they wanted to pretend, they had to pretend to respect the Sage.
Did these scholars really care about the Sacred Temple?
That might not be the case.
It was just a signboard, a signboard to promote and get rich, and a signboard to attack those who did not.
Did these officials really think of Confucius as a Sage?
It was just for their own benefit.
However, no matter what, the Sacred Temple was burned. These scholars would be infuriated and grieved, as if their ancestral graves had been dug up.
Then, who would burn the Sacred Temple?
They definitely could not let Princess Ning Yan burn it. She could not bear the consequences.
This was absolute political correctness. Anyone who touched it would die.
Who would burn it?
Let the Qiang Kingdom's envoy burn it!
This was the most vicious of Shen Lang's plans.
… …
The Qiang Kingdom!
A small country to the west of the State of Yue.
It was less than one-sixth the size of the State of Yue, and its population was only a few hundred thousand.
However, they were very brave and skilled in battle.
They were extremely valiant and powerful.
Although their weapons and equipment were average, their individual strength far surpassed that of the State of Yue's soldiers.
The Qiang Kingdom was sandwiched between the Sand Barbarians, the Chu Kingdom, the State of Yue, and the Western Region.
It was a battlefield of hundreds of battles.
Moreover, the Qiang Kingdom did not understand the concept of political compromise. They disliked everyone and would fight anyone they wanted.
Over the past hundred years, they had fought the Chu Kingdom, the Sand Barbarians, the State of Yue, and the other countries of the Western Region.
They would fight anyone they saw, and they would fight the heavens, the earth, and the air.
After fighting for hundreds of years, their territory did not increase or decrease.
The population had been maintained at this level, but it could not increase or decrease.
Once the population decreased, they would start plundering.
Everyone said that warmongers would die, but that was because a country could not afford to raise an army and could not afford to fight.
However, this did not exist for the Qiang Kingdom. Everyone was a soldier.
It just so happened that the Qiang Kingdom was a land of bitter cold. There was no point in fighting, and it would only increase the burden.
Neither the State of Yue nor the Chu Kingdom wanted to take over this land.
It was also good to have such a small bandit country cut off from the Western Region and the Sand Barbarians.
That was why the State of Yue had been using conciliatory policies towards the Qiang Kingdom.
In other words, they were using money to buy peace.
So what did the Qiang Kingdom have to do with Su Nan?
It was very important!
The Qiang Kingdom did not have a good relationship with anyone, but they had a good relationship with the Su Clan.
Of course, this also had to do with the Su Clan's strategy.
The Qiang Kingdom was number one in the Su Clan's strategy!
The Su Clan lost money every year when trading with the Qiang Kingdom.
They almost completely monopolized the Qiang Kingdom's cattle, sheep, and wool.
Then, the Su Clan sold grain, alcohol, silk, tea, and bricks to the Qiang Kingdom every year.
Some people had estimated that the Su Clan lost at least thirty thousand gold coins from trading with the Qiang Kingdom every year.
However!
This was in exchange for huge amounts of political resources.
The Su Clan was indispensable if they wanted to deal with the Qiang Kingdom.
Moreover, the Su Clan's territory bordered the Qiang Kingdom.
It was because of this political resource that the Su Clan was able to stand tall.
The Qiang Monarch ignored everyone except for Su Nan.
Su Nan's younger sister and daughter were both married to the Qiang Monarch.
The elder daughter was married to the Qiang Monarch, while the younger daughter was married to the Qiang Crown Prince.
Yes, it was that messy.
The real situation was even messier.
Currently, a group of envoys from the Qiang Kingdom were in the capital of the State of Yue.
What were they doing here?
Extortion!
The South Kingdom had rebelled. Prince Jin had let go of the past grudges and led the Sand Barbarian army into the country to fight against the State of Yue.
The war was in a stalemate.
The Qiang Kingdom saw that their chance had come again.
Therefore, they sent envoys to the State of Yue to extort them.
They demanded three hundred thousand gold coins, three thousand women, countless grains, silk, and tea leaves from the Monarch.
The conditions were very nice.
As long as you give us these things, we will immediately send troops to attack the Sand Barbarians.
The Monarch had only one reaction.
Like hell I'll believe you!
The Qiang Kingdom and the Sand Barbarians do fight each other, and they've fought countless times, but it's all because of personal feelings.
Neither side wants the other's territory.
The Sand Barbarians are poorer than the Qiang Kingdom.
Ning Yuanxian firmly believed that as long as he gave them the money and resources, the Qiang Kingdom would dispatch five hundred soldiers to kill a few dozen Sand Barbaric people. Then, they would come back to the Yue Kingdom to claim the credit and ask for more money.
The Monarch, Ning Yuanxian, had already seen through this plan.
Even though the South Kingdom was in a stalemate, the State of Yue had an overwhelming advantage in terms of military strength and national power.
We don't need the Qiang Kingdom's help at all. The best you can do is not cause trouble.
Your only use as a troublemaker is to attack the Chu Kingdom when the Yue and Chu Kingdoms go to war in the future.
Since they couldn't extort any money, the Qiang Kingdom's envoys stayed in the State of Yue.
All foreign envoys usually stayed in the Ministry of Rites' Office.
But the Qiang Kingdom's envoys didn't want to stay in that godforsaken place, so they stayed in brothels for the past few months.
They moved in from one brothel to the next.
There was good food, fun, and a good night's sleep.
It couldn't get any better.
Of course, they wouldn't give them money. The Qiang Kingdom would only ask for money, not give it.
This was like a tyrant prostitute.
That wasn't true. Someone was there to pay.
Who was it?
The Su Family!
They were the Qiang Kingdom's diplomatic experts, and the Qiang Kingdom's people were good friends.
But these envoys didn't just prostitute themselves, they also liked to beat and kill people.
At this critical moment, the State of Yue could only swallow their anger. Every time the Qiang Kingdom's envoys caused trouble, it would be reduced to nothing.
The South Kingdom didn't need the Qiang Kingdom's help in the war.
But they couldn't let them cause trouble.
This was a crazy country that would jump at the slightest provocation. If they sent troops into the South Kingdom to help Prince Jin fight the State of Yue, it would be troublesome.
The Qiang Kingdom wouldn't do something like that.
The Qiang Kingdom had done too many things that harmed others without benefiting themselves.
Thus, everyone tried not to provoke them.
As time went by, the Qiang Kingdom's envoys were hated by everyone in the capital.
Wherever they were, everyone stayed far away from them.
If they couldn't provoke them, they could hide.
This made the Qiang Kingdom's envoys furious.
They had no choice. The Su Family had to send someone to play with the Qiang Kingdom's people.
There weren't many Qiang Kingdom envoys, only a dozen or so in total.
There were always two people accompanying the Su Clan at all times.
Over the past few months, the Qiang Kingdom's envoys had killed people and caused trouble, which had already infuriated the citizens.
If these madmen from the Qiang Kingdom went to burn down the Holy Temple …
That would completely ignite the rage of the State of Yue's officials.
This is burning away our faith!
The entire capital would explode, and countless people would scream for blood.
When that happened, no one would care about Jin Mucong anymore.
And the Su Family would be the target of their anger.
The Su Family was supposed to watch over these evil wolves, but instead of keeping an eye on them, they went to burn down the Holy Temple.
How should the Su Family be punished?
The Monarch looked furious, but he was actually very happy inside.
I've always disliked you, Sage Confucius, and I've knelt to you every year.
Furthermore, he could finally openly reject the Qiang Kingdom's blackmail.
Not only that, but he could also use this opportunity to beat Su Nan up.
Killing three birds with one stone.
For Shen Lang, it was killing two birds with one stone.
Second, he could completely reverse the situation in the Imperial Court and turn the public's attention away from the Kim family.
Second, he could drag the Su Family down with him.
Dragging the Su Family down wasn't as simple as making Su Nan suffer the Monarch's wrath.
This was Shen Lang's first move to destroy the Su Family, and it was also the most important one.
If he wanted to destroy the Su Family, he had to use the Qiang Kingdom.
Therefore, even if the incident with Jin Mucong hadn't happened, the Holy Temple would still have to be burned down, and the Qiang Kingdom's envoys would have to do it.
He hadn't expected that something would happen to Jin Mucong, so the plan had to be brought forward.
Therefore, letting the Qiang Kingdom's envoys burn down the Holy Temple was Shen Lang's most vicious plan.
In his heart, he was even more proud of this than taking over the Raging Tide City and the Battle of Cliff Island.
This was because it was the least likely to happen by chance and had the least flaws.
The output was very small, but the results were shocking. It was truly a big move.
The reward and the effort were not proportional at all.
Compared to that, what was Shen Lang's massacre in the Ten Thousand Year County Government?
A perfect vicious plan!
Marquis Su Nan, I'll let you enjoy the wisdom of Shen Lang taking one step and watching three or four steps ahead.
… …
Princess Ning Yan was very pleased!
She had been angry with the Qiang Kingdom's envoys for a long time. If not for her father's repeated warnings not to provoke them, she would have beaten them up a long time ago.
These barbarians were too arrogant. They ran amok in the capital every day and did all kinds of bad things.
There could only be one scourge in the capital of the State of Yue.
And that was Princess Ning Yan.
A few days ago, the Qiang Kingdom's envoys had gotten into trouble again. They had injured more than ten innocent people on horseback.
Two of them were seriously injured, and the other three had broken bones.
The Qiang Kingdom's envoys didn't care at all. Instead, they became angry and accused the State of Yue's citizens of blocking their way. They then whipped the citizens who had surrounded them to seek justice.
They didn't care even after they had injured someone and continued to indulge in debauchery. Meanwhile, the officials of the State of Yue continued to make big things small and small things nothing.
Today, it was their turn to dine and dash at the Spring Breeze Brothel.
They were the only customers in the entire Spring Breeze Brothel.
That was because the brothel they went to would be cleared out.
All the girls with high social status would hide and find burly women to serve them.
Actually, the Qiang Kingdom's warriors didn't mind at all.
Those delicate girls looked okay, but they were not fun to sleep with.
These burly women were more fun.
Everyone was on par with each other.
The Qiang Kingdom's warriors, accompanied by a dozen burly women, were drinking excitedly.
In the end, the tigress Princess Ning Yan charged in.
"Were you the ones who injured and killed innocent people in Xi City a few days ago?" Ning Yan said angrily.
The leader of the Qiang Kingdom's warriors said, "So what if we were? The government doesn't even care. Why do you have to be so nosy? Why don't you come sleep with us? "
The Qiang Kingdom's warriors stared at Ning Yan with burning eyes.
She was too beautiful, too spicy!
She was the most beautiful woman they had ever seen.
They couldn't help it. The tigress' strong thighs and the curve of her waist had completely struck the Qiang Kingdom's most passionate hearts.
She was the epitome of their beauty standards!
However, someone quickly recognized that she was Princess Ning Yan.
Although they were crazy, they didn't dare to touch the princess of the State of Yue.
At this point, the two people sent by the Su clan to accompany the Qiang Kingdom's warriors stepped forward and were about to greet Princess Ning Yan.
In the end, Princess Ning Yan slapped them to the ground and knocked them unconscious.
Then, the Su clan's warriors who were hiding in the dark were about to report to the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
Before they could leave, they were stopped by Princess Ning Yan's warriors and knocked to the ground.
The tigress Ning Yan pointed at the Qiang Kingdom's warriors and said, "You have injured and killed more than ten people of the State of Yue, but our countries do not kill envoys. I will not bully you either. Let's have a duel and take turns fighting. I will take on more than ten of you alone. "
The Qiang Kingdom's warriors were enraged.
You are just a woman. How dare you say you can take on more than ten Qiang Kingdom warriors?
This is a great humiliation to us.
Even if you are a princess, we will still beat you up. After all, you were the one who initiated the duel.
And so, the duel began!
… …
One by one, the Qiang Kingdom's warriors charged forward.
And then...
They were all taken down by the tigress.
In less than fifteen minutes, the duel was over!
Princess Ning Yan had really defeated more than ten of them alone.
Reality proved that her reputation as the scourge of the capital was not undeserved.
Although Ning Yan's martial arts talent was not as good as Ning Han's, she had been taught by a famous master. Her martial arts skills were really strong.
Of course, she could not compare to Chou Yao 'er. She was a perverted demoness.
Ning Jie was a top-notch expert and Zuo Ci's junior, but she might not be a match for Chou Yao 'er in a real fight.
However, this tigress princess's martial arts skills were stronger than Mulan's.
There was no other way. Mulan had to practice martial arts and be busy with military affairs at the same time.
She was not like a tigress. She had been focused on martial arts since she was young and had high talent.
Most importantly, she had big breasts and no brains.
There were people in this world who were both intelligent and skilled, but they were still relatively rare.
Only those with simple minds would have high martial arts skills.
Look at the Big Fool, Tang Yan, and Sword King Li Qianqiu.
None of them were smart. In other words, they had used all their intelligence on martial arts, so their emotional intelligence was very low.
Grandmaster Zhong Chuke was too smart, so his martial arts skills could not compare to Li Qianqiu's.
A woman like Mulan, who was good at martial arts, kind, smart, beautiful, and had a devilish figure was very rare.
It was very rare. She was simply an angel.
Back to the main topic.
More than a dozen warriors from the Qiang Kingdom had been defeated by Ning Yan.
It was a great humiliation.
Of course, Ning Yan did not use too much force. She did not even break their bones. She only beat them up until their faces were swollen.
Then, the tigress princess took off her gloves and waved her hand. "Sigh, your Qiang Kingdom warriors are not good enough."
It was as if after Chen Zhen defeated the Japanese samurai, he waved the dust off his collar and said, "You Japanese are the sick men of East Asia."
That kind of disdain and emphasis was simply infuriating.
Of course, this dialogue was also taught by Shen Lang.
The tigress instinctively felt that this dialogue was very cool. She would use it often in the future.
Then, she left, leaving the group of Qiang Kingdom warriors with an extremely hot and exaggerated view of her back.
She felt really good.
The best thing in the world was to show off and slap people in the face.
Shen Lang was the one who had designed the script for her from the beginning to the end.
… …
After Princess Ning Yan left!
The dozen or so Qiang Kingdom warriors got up, extremely embarrassed and angry.
Legend had it that the barbarians were very straightforward. Would they submit to you just because you defeated them?
That was all a lie.
This group of villains was more treacherous than the last.
If you defeated him, it would only make him hate you even more and think about how to kill you.
What kind of straightforward man was that? Straight from the throat to the stomach? That was all written in books.
This group of Qiang Kingdom warriors was typically short-tempered and narrow-minded.
It was simply too humiliating for a dozen warriors to be defeated by a woman.
They must take revenge. They must take revenge.
But the other party was the princess. They could not possibly kill her.
In their anger, the group of Qiang Kingdom warriors drank even more fiercely.
Then …
Their drinks were drugged.
Sigh!
Master Lang's deadly weapon, the world's most powerful hallucinogen, was about to appear again. He had created another batch.
It was a tried and tested method!
Who drugged them?
Of course, it was the sturdy women who accompanied them.
Princess Ning Yan might lack other people, but she definitely did not lack sturdy women.
Do you remember the female warrior who wanted to pull off Master Lang's pants?
She was eight feet tall and had a waist circumference of eight feet. She had also started to have a crush on Master Lang.
Ning Yan had hundreds of such female warriors by her side.
Of course, they were not that strong. For example, there were quite a few strong and beautiful women who accompanied them this time.
If you don't believe me, you can look at the muscular models. There are also beauties.
They drank the strong hallucinogen.
The Qiang Kingdom's warriors seemed to have opened the door to a whole new world.
It was too wonderful.
It was too heavenly.
Who would have thought that the State of Yue would have such good wine?
Why did they only taste it now?
The Qiang Kingdom warriors were not very intelligent to begin with. Now, their intelligence had dropped to the bottom. The people sent by the Qiang King had to be stubborn. Smart people were not good enough.
How could they describe what the Qiang Kingdom warriors were feeling right now?
I am the only one in the world.
I don't want the sky to cover my eyes. I don't want the earth to bury my heart.
Oh! No, it shouldn't be that artistic.
It should be: I am too awesome. This world can no longer contain me.
Just now, they had been defeated by a single woman.
They had to take revenge. They had to take revenge.
But how?
The Qiang Kingdom was going to do something big.
Do something as important as the heavens!
Attack the palace?
Or rape that princess? And then kill her?
At that moment, the muscular beauty beside them suggested an idea.
"Sirs, what is the most sacred place in the Qiang Kingdom?"
The Qiang Kingdom warriors replied, "The Snow Mountain Temple, of course. The Qiang Kingdom's god lives there."
The muscular beauty said, "Then what will happen if someone burns down your Snow Mountain Temple?"
The Qiang Kingdom warriors replied, "Of course we'll kill their entire family, their entire country, and their entire tribe."
They had often heard of killing nine entire tribes, and they had felt that it was quite impressive. As such, they had privately expanded to killing a hundred tribes.
The muscular beauty smiled charmingly. "What a coincidence. We also have a Snow Mountain Temple in the capital. Its status in our country is the same as that of your Snow Mountain Temple. "
The Qiang Kingdom warriors glanced at each other.
Their hearts were connected.
They had a brilliant idea.
They would burn down the State of Yue's Snow Mountain Temple!
They would take revenge for the humiliation they had just suffered.
How dare you people from the State of Yue look down on us? How dare you refuse to pay us?
We want revenge. We want to do something big.
Although these warriors were not very smart, they would never do something like this when they were sober.
At that moment...
They were already on cloud nine.
They were the only ones in the world.
What else did they not dare to do?
A drunkard would dare to lift a woman's skirt.
Not to mention a bunch of ferocious people who had ingested the most powerful hallucinogen.
What else did they not dare to do?
Thus, after asking for directions, the Qiang Kingdom warriors headed toward the Snow Mountain Temple.
In an instant, these muscular beauties disappeared without a trace and could no longer be found.
What a coincidence.
For some reason, after leaving the brothel, there would always be someone leading the way at the crucial juncture.
Otherwise, the Qiang Kingdom warriors would not have been able to find the Snow Mountain Temple. They only remembered the way to each brothel.
How could a sacred place like the Snow Mountain Temple be so heavily guarded?
Bullsh * t!
Angkor Wat was not heavily guarded. The Pyramids were not heavily guarded. The Capitol was not heavily guarded either.
The Snow Mountain Temple in the capital of the State of Yue was not heavily guarded either.
This place was specially built for the monarch to worship. It was also a place for countless scholars to come and pay homage to.
There was only one day every year when the Monarch was coming.
The rest of the time, it was guarded by a dozen or so old soldiers.
There were only a few large statues in the Snow Mountain Temple. It was not like other temples with golden statues and incense money.
There was not a single gold coin in the Snow Mountain Temple. Even thieves would not come here to steal.
Usually, there was an old man who lived in the Snow Mountain Temple. He was a fourth-rank official.
The Qiang Kingdom warriors easily destroyed the dozen or so old soldiers guarding the Snow Mountain Temple.
Then, a huge fire.
They set the Snow Mountain Temple on fire!
This was the Snow Mountain Temple of all the scholars in the world.
This was the Snow Mountain Temple of the founders of the Eastern civilization.
This was the Snow Mountain Temple of the Eastern Sages.
A huge fire burned brightly.
The Qiang Kingdom warriors trembled with excitement.
Awesome!
Too awesome!
Burning down someone else's Snow Mountain Temple was awesome.
Then, they unbuckled their belts and peed in front of the fire.
The fire in the Snow Mountain Temple lit up the night sky.
The entire capital was completely shaken.
It was a magnitude 10 earthquake.
This was equivalent to the bombing of the Independence Monument on Capitol Hill.
It was definitely going to pierce through the sky!
Shen Lang's evil plan!
It was officially a success!
The Su Family's first misfortune was about to begin!
Tomorrow, the entire court of the State of Yue would be stirred up by a shocking political storm.
