Chapter 76: The Return of the Three Qing Dynasty and the Two Great Burials
Gathering in the blessed land of the Holy Mountain.
Dongsheng Dynasty.
Huai'an Sixteenth Prefecture, Zhongding Prefecture, and Yaocheng.
Zhuang Ming, who fled in embarrassment that day, returned here again, and things are different now!
But on the way, the gentleman from Zhongding Mansion came to see him secretly, with a very respectful attitude.
Of all the officials in the Sixteenth House of Huai'an, no one dared to accuse him of being a traitor, and no one dared to order his arrest.
Even over there in the capital, everything was silent.
——
"Son..."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Zhuang Ming looked at Xue Qing and others and nodded slightly.
Xue Qing was very smart. He understood his instructions that day and used his seal to summon all parties immediately.
This time, the losses suffered by Zhuang's Trading Company were not too great, less than half of what was expected. It can be said that Xue Qing took the greatest credit.
What's more, this time, Xue Qing was also imprisoned, but he still asked his wife to protect Shuang Ling with all her strength, and went to Zhongwang Mountain to assist Shuang Ling in refining the incense.
"You and your wife have done a great job this time. I will definitely reward you heavily after this incident is over."
When Zhuang Ming said this, his eyes went beyond Xue Qing and fell behind him.
Behind Xue Qing, there were two coffins.
In the coffins are Qian Yang and Yin Ming.
At this moment, his two breaths are still among the two ancient corpses.
However, the ancient corpse was too severely injured, its meridians were broken in many places, its internal organs were shattered, and its entire body was not well connected. It was extremely difficult to drive it.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Ming suddenly sighed.
These two ancient corpses have been used by him since his youth.
In the past six years, the young dragon has not yet matured. The reason why he was able to create such a huge business is closely related to these two ancient corpses.
Even though it is not a living being, it still functions like two arms.
Even though he was able to transform into a dragon now, and the strength of the two ancient corpses was no longer so important, he still couldn't help but sigh.
——
Zhuang Ming came between the two coffins.
A dragon swam out of his sleeve.
Xue Qing and others suddenly looked surprised.
This dragon is pure white, only two feet long and two fingers wide, and looks like a small snake.
It's just that the head is like a cow or a horse, and there are two claws under the belly, which makes it look very magical.
Is this the legendary dragon that defeated more than 20,000 Zhennan troops?
What is the real confidence that the young master dares to fall out with King Chen this time and dare to fight against the imperial army?
In the past, they had admired the young master to the extreme for his uncanny calculations, insight into everything, and almost demonic wisdom. However, this time they realized that... the young master was not a miraculous figure, but a real god.
Xue Qing and others became more and more respectful, as if they were gods.
Zhuang Ming closed his eyes slightly and moved the dragon.
Jiaolong opened his mouth slightly.
The invisible breath came from the eyebrows of Qian Yang and Yin Ming, passed through the coffin, and was swallowed by the dragon.
What he used at that time was to convert three pure things into one spirit.
It took six years for the young dragon to turn into a dragon, and now all the three pure energies have returned to their proper place.
In a daze, the dragon seemed more magical, more agile, and more perfect.
"Transport Qian Yang and Yin Ming back to Qianlong Villa."
Zhuang Ming opened his eyes and said softly: "Remember the merits, remember their names, draw their portraits, and send them to the pavilion... and bury the two bodies behind Zhongwang Mountain."
Xue Qing hurriedly responded: "Yes."
Zhuang Ming exhaled, holding a coffin with each hand, and said silently in his heart: "The two seniors have been dead for many years, but in the past six years, they have been driven by the younger generation and have not been able to live in peace. Now that they are buried in peace, it is not a bad thing."
Thinking of this, Zhuang Ming said slowly: "According to the customs of the Dongsheng Dynasty, the two seniors have extremely high status. In terms of etiquette, there should be guardians at the tomb. When it is time to be buried, I will choose the guardian for you. people."
——
"Sir, there is no movement in the capital so far."
Liu He bowed and said: "The ban imposed by the Sixteenth House of Huai'an on Zhuang's Trading Company has been lifted, and our manpower has been released. In addition, Mr. Bai was captured while working in Xuancheng and was imprisoned at that time. This morning
He has also been released and is on his way back to Qianlong Villa."
Zhuang Ming nodded slightly and said, "It's fine as long as it's okay."
Liu He added: "There is also another piece of news. The head of the Qian family in Xuancheng was busy working to unblock Zhuang's firm as soon as possible yesterday evening. He slipped and fell to his death."
"He's quite smart."
Zhuang Ming sneered, with a bit of ridicule.
The head of the Qian family in Xuancheng initially joined forces with Song Tianyuan to defeat his layout in Xuancheng. Later, he set up a trap and was not allowed to come to Qianlong Villa to plead with him.
At that time, Zhuang Ming did not hide his intentions and bluntly stated that he wanted to use the Qian family to reshape the situation in Xuancheng, but the head of the Qian family was still not enough to make up for the crime.
The Xuancheng plan can only be regarded as leaving a glimmer of hope for the Qian family, but the head of the Qian family himself cannot escape death.
But later, although the turmoil was calmed down, after Song Tianyuan died, King Chen came again.
Under the general trend of King Chen, Zhuang's trading company was in a worrying situation. Zhuang Ming had a headache and had no time to pay attention to the head of the Qian family.
And the head of the Qian family, seeing the situation that the Zhuang Company was in, was not in a hurry to die.
It was not until yesterday that the Zhennan army besieging Zhongwang Mountain was defeated, King Chen was captured, and the capital turned a blind eye. Perhaps the head of the Qian family felt that the situation was settled and he calmly went to his death.
"He should have sacrificed his life to apologize, but now that he died for our Zhuang Company, he can be regarded as a meritorious official."
Zhuang Ming smiled and said: "He used his life to connect his Qian family and Zhuang's Trading Company again... At least on the surface, he is still a hero of Zhuang's Trading Company. We can't treat the Qian family badly, but
That’s fine, cooperation will benefit both sides.”
Liu He hesitated and said, "Will he leave the truth secretly?"
Zhuang Ming waved his hands and said, "He didn't dare to say it."
The head of the Qian family actually died as an apology.
If this truth is known to the Qian family, it is inevitable that some people will feel resentful. No matter how deep the new Qian family head is, can he really be able to face Zhuang Ming without any leaks?
Once the dissatisfaction in his heart was revealed, how could Zhuang Ming turn a blind eye?
The head of the Qian family was willing to die and was extremely calm, so he did not dare to take this gamble.
He could only bury the truth and die for Zhuang's Trading Company.
Use his life to secure a future for Qian.
"Now everyone in the Qian family thinks that he died for our Zhuang Company. Our Zhuang Company cannot turn a blind eye to this. You send someone to send some gifts to express your condolences. In addition, treat the Qian family in Xuancheng a little more in the future.
With courtesy, they will also have a greater sense of belonging to us..."
Zhuang Ming laughed and said: "Of course, you and I both know the truth. If in the future, the Qian family relies on pampering, there is no need to show any mercy."
Hearing this, Liu He responded and made a statement.
Zhuang Ming nodded slightly and was about to continue talking when he stopped, stretched out his hand to caress the dragon, and said leisurely: "Go and get someone."
Liu He was startled for a moment and said, "Pick someone up?"
Zhuang Ming chuckled lightly and said, "Someone is coming from the capital."
——
There were about a hundred people coming from the capital.
These hundreds of elite soldiers came to escort the imperial edict.
The person in charge, with a complicated look on his face, came to Qianlong Villa and respectfully asked for the imperial edict and spread it out.
Zhuang Ming sat in a wheelchair with a calm expression.
Behind him, everyone in Zhuang's Trading Company also looked calm and did not kneel down to receive him.
The man's eyes were slightly focused, as if he couldn't see him, and he only spoke loudly.
"The emperor is destined to be supported by heaven, the edict says."
"Chen Wang You said that he planned to rebel and support his troops to respect himself. The evidence is conclusive. Now the family property will be confiscated and the three tribes will be wiped out!"
"Zhuang's Trading Company saw through the rebels and defeated their plans, which is a great achievement."
"I will grant Zhuang Ming, the 13th Mr. Zhuang's Trading Company, the title of Holy Dragon True Monarch. He will occupy a first-grade position and be rewarded with thousands of taels of silver, thousands of pieces of silk and satin, and hundreds of jade beads."
——
Zhuang Ming sat on the chair, received the imperial edict, and said calmly: "Zhuang has inconvenience on his legs and feet. He cannot kneel to receive or greet you. It is rude."
After he finished speaking, he tilted his head slightly and said, "Reward."
Liu He nodded and took out ten taels of silver.
Zhuang Ming looked as usual and weighed the imperial edict.
To ordinary people, this imperial edict is as important as a mountain and should be treated with utmost respect.
But he regarded it as an ordinary letter and rolled it up.
The material of this imperial edict is not bad, it is made of fine silk, with jade as the shaft, on the back are auspicious clouds and auspicious cranes, and on both sides are silver dragons flying.
——
"Where is King Chen?"
Zhuang Ming put down the imperial edict and asked like this.
Liu He responded: "Still helping."
Zhuang Ming thought for a moment and asked, "Are you still awake?"
Liu He nodded and said: "He is in a trance, but not crazy yet."
Zhuang Ming pointed to the imperial edict and said, "Send the imperial edict to King Chen for review."
Liu He agreed, took the imperial decree, and left immediately.
