My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 71: Dashang is such a waste
Ying Zhong was not only really talking, he was really crying.

In just a blink of an eye, his robe was stained with two tear marks.

Around the court, a group of officials looked at Ying Zhong with different expressions. Some of them were inevitably envious, but most of them were contemptuous.

Especially Bigan at the top.

The more sadly and sincerely Ying Zhong cried on the ground, the more disgusted and nauseated Bigan looked at Ying Zhong.

Because now almost everyone in the court knows the real cause of Ji Li's death.

But the Jili incident was the last major thing done by Tai Ding after all. Even if Bigan hated this kind of thing, he did not stand up and say anything.

So, at this moment, the court became a battlefield for senior actors. They came and went, competing with each other to praise Ji Li, and then one after another accompanied Ying Zhong in crying.

The farce finally stopped after this group of ministers had been crying and praising for a long time, and Ji Li's body finally fell into Zhong Su's hands.

The longer Zhong Su stayed in the court, the more he disliked the atmosphere there.

As for the reason, there is only one.

unreal.

It was not until this moment that Zhong Suli understood why Nuwa was like that.

It was not until this moment that Zhong Suli understood part of the immortals' thoughts, and even more so the real thoughts in the hearts of the Twelve Golden Immortals who were unwilling to go to heaven.

Since we can live without worries, live without scruples, live freely and freely, and live truly without fear.

Then which immortal would be willing to enter such a chaotic court?

The reason behind this is just like the fact that children in the future will become less and less fond of celebrating the New Year and visiting relatives.

Immortals are far more reluctant to deal with others than mortals.

With this thought in mind, Zhong Su brought Ji Li's body back to his mansion and decided to bid farewell to Yindu.

Before he left, he explained the request of the head of the Yin family to Emperor Yi.

In the past month, the head of the Yin family has been living a miserable life.

He originally planned to discuss the matter of his children's marriage with Zixian, who was His Royal Highness, so the chips he prepared were actually only to deal with Zixian, who was His Royal Highness.

But on the first day he returned to Yindu, Tai Ding died.

Soon after, Emperor Yi ascended to the throne smoothly and quickly. By the time Zhong Su finally had time to hand him a letter of appointment, Emperor Yi's throne could not be more secure.

As for now, in Zhong Su's mansion.

Jiu Gong, smiling, held the food prepared for him by the old servant of the Zhong family, and together with Ting Xin, who was holding Zanhua and smiling non-stop, put the package on Hu Jiao's back.

The old servant of the Zhong family had a sad conversation with Zhong Su and expressed his concern for him.

At this point, everyone in Yindu, including the Zhong family’s servants, understood Zhong Su.

Back then, people in Yin capital only knew that Zhong Sulu was a playboy who was neither good at literature nor martial arts.

But now, everyone knows that Zhong Su is a true hermit, and he is completely different from Qigong practitioners like Wen Zhong. He is a Qigong practitioner who is truly devoted to mountains and rivers and has no political ambitions at all.

The old servant of the Zhong family didn't even know whether he would be able to see his master again after he left this time.

So he chatted with Zhong Su for a long time, talking about the past of the Zhong family, the ancestor Fu Yue, and Zhong Su's grandfather and father.

Until the old servant said goodbye with tears in his eyes, Zhong Su put all the clam spirits into the bracelet, rode on the white tiger, took Xiaojiu and Tingxin with him, and left the capital that had been bound to the Shang Dynasty for more than 500 years.

When they were leaving, they happened to see the Yin family's team outside the city gate.

The head of the Yin family was also surprised to see Zhong Su leave Yindu so quickly, so he came closer and chatted with Zhong Su just like he did when he came.

As they chatted, Zhong Su couldn't help but ask about the purpose of the head of the Yin family coming to Yindu, that is, the matter of his daughter and Emperor Yi's legitimate son.

When he heard Zhong Su ask this question, the head of the Yin family's face fell and he shook his head helplessly.

"I have to thank you, Master. Without you, I would not have been able to play to the king alone. However, I am sorry to disappoint you that I failed to secure this good marriage for my daughter!"

Having said that, the head of the Yin family approached Zhong Su mysteriously and continued to speak to him in a low voice.

“If my prediction is correct, then our Great Shang will probably have to go to war with Xiqi.

Because I heard behind the scenes that the future queen chosen by the king for Your Highness will probably be the daughter of the Duke of Dongbo or the Duke of Beibo.

If there were no powerful princes in the territory that needed to be suppressed, why would the king allow nobles of the level of the Four Marquises to continue to expand their influence?

Your Majesty wants military strength and stability, but I only have money. It is not shameful for me to lose to the Four Marquises!"

After saying this, the head of the Yin family shook his head.

“It’s a pity, if the war wasn’t imminent, I would have been able to ascend to the position of uncle of the emperor.

In terms of wealth, no other big businessman can compare with me. Even if the four marquises are rich in their respective countries, what I have earned is the gold and jade of the whole world!
How can their small territory be compared with my world!"

After he finished speaking, the head of the Yin family showed a hint of dissatisfaction, and this look made Zhong Su unable to help but think deeply.

Now Zhong Suli didn't even need to calculate to know that there was something wrong with the mentality of the head of the Yin family.

The most important thing is that Emperor Yi’s grandchildren were all named Yin.

However, the daughter of the Yin family did not marry into the royal family. In other words, Zishou’s two sons with the surname Yin could have the surname Yin, but they did not inherit the clan fiefdom of their maternal grandfather.

and so……

How did Yin become the fiefdom of Zishou's two sons in the future?

And what will happen to the original owner of that fiefdom, the current head of the Yin family, in the future?
Thinking of this, Zhong Su shook his head and spoke softly to the head of the Yin family.

"Master Yin, every drink and every bite has its own destiny. If you get it, it's lucky. If you lose it, it's also lucky.

In any case, don't blame others. Since you have failed, you need to keep a low profile in the future."

"Haha, I am a businessman, and a leader among businessmen. How could I not be low-key? But thank you for your reminder, Master."

Faced with Zhong Su's persuasion, the head of the Yin family smiled indifferently, and then walked with Zhong Su all the way to Chentang before finally parting ways.

After leaving Chentang Pass and passing Youhun Pass, Zhong Su finally returned to Sanshan Pass.

Kong Xuan hadn't seen Zhong Suli for more than a month, but he was even less used to it than Zhong Suli.

Seeing Zhong Su returning, Kong Xuan immediately pulled Zhong Su to drink heavily.

While drinking, Hu Jiao, Xiao Jiu and Ao Tingxin told Kong about their experiences.

Hu Jiao opened her paws and described the funeral scene in a careless manner.

"Master Kong Xuan, you don't know, that scene was so big that it frightened Xiao Hu.

A total of more than 9,000 people were buried just like that, without feeling any pity at all. The Shang Dynasty was really generous!
If these people were given to Xiaohu, he could last for at least ten years if he saved on food.

It’s a pity that the master doesn’t like people to eat people. The last time they ate people, they were the black slaves from the South Barbarians that you, Master Kong Xuan, brought for us as snacks. They were so chewy~~~~”

As he spoke, Hu Jiao couldn't help but recall the past, but as he was recalling, Zhong Su coughed lightly.

Hearing the sound, Ao Tingxin quickly stretched out her little foot and kicked Hu Jiao.

Hu Jiao was startled and immediately fell to the ground and said to Zhong Su.

"Master, please forgive me. Ah Jiao has gotten carried away. Ah Jiao shouldn't be so greedy. Master has given us a lot of magical herbs...

Gillian really doesn't like eating, and people are not as good as magic grass. Xiaohu just thinks... Dashang is really too wasteful.

After all, they are human beings and meat. Even if we eat them, it is better than burying them and letting them rot in the ground.

That’s what I thought!”
