by Haruki Murakami 16:30,Jul 14,2023


It took a long time before Governor Xuanwu calmed down, and said, "The matter of the Zhu Family courtship is very secret, even I don't know about it, why do you know? Who did you hear it from?"

That's right, the eyes of the few people present looked at Scott Shen, how could he know such a secret thing with his humble status?

Shen Lang said, "Xu Family daughter's new fiancé, Paul Zhang!"

"Paul Zhang?"Governor Xuanwu asked, "The new leader of the Defending Army of Xuanwu City ?"

"Yes, that's him." Shen Lang said, "I was married to Xu's Xu Family before, and Celestine Xu kicked him out of the house. Her new fiancé, Paul Zhang, said that the wedding would be held as soon as possible, because the Zhu Family wanted to propose to your family, and Hanson Zhu wanted to marry him. Miss Mulan Jin, he took me as a fool at the time and was so unprepared that he let it slip, and he also told Celestine Xu not to leak it afterwards."

At this time, the confidants of the Governor's Mansion Mansion whispered in the Governor's ear, apparently to inform Scott Shen's identity and background.

In Xuanwu City, Scott Shen was a celebrity.

When no one dared to join the Xu Family, he, Scott Shen, stepped forward and became famous in Xuanwu City at that time.

Everyone knew that there was a fool who became the Xu Family's door-to-door son-in-law. All of Scott Shen's family background has been dug out, including that he has been studying for nearly ten years but has not even completed the enlightenment course, and his brain IQ is quite problematic and so on.

"Just two days ago, the Xu Family announced that the son-in-law, Scott Shen, stole property from the family and molested the maid, so he was expelled from the Xu Family."The Governor's confidant finally said, his voice was a little louder, presumably to let Scott Shen hear.

Governor Xuanwu frowned upon hearing these words.

Whether Scott Shen stole the wealth of the Xu Family and molested the maids of the Xu Family is hard to say, the Governor tends not to believe it.

However, Scott Shen has been studying for nearly ten years, and he was sent home without even completing the enlightenment education in the school in the town.

Besides, in the eyes of everyone, the reason why Scott Shen was willing to join the Xu Family was purely for vanity. The Governor most dislikes young people who are lazy and greedy for vanity, so he has a very bad impression of Scott Shen.

If it were in a normal time, he would definitely have to educate him, but he couldn't care less about it now, because what Scott Shen told him was too important and directly related to the fate of the Governor's Mansion.

Moreover, he immediately judged that what Scott Shen said was basically true.

The Zhang family is a new aristocrat of the Yue Country, and their backer is the Zhu Family.

Paul Zhang's father, Zoey Zhang, had just served as the Prefecture of Nujiang County , and it was entirely because of the recommendation of Ralph Zhu , the Governor of Tiannan Province .

So it is not surprising that Paul Zhang knows the secret of the Zhu Family.

For Paul Zhang, the Governor of Xuanwu, Joe Jin, knew about it. Even the Prefecture of Xuanwu City were a little surprised at how short of money this family was. .

Governor can understand that the Zhang family has risen too fast, its foundation is unstable, and if it wants to continue to grow, it needs a lot of money, but everyone's eyes are on the Zhang family, so they are not greedy for money , then it is very necessary to find a super rich in-law.

Therefore, the marriage between the Zhang family and the Xu Family is a typical alliance of power and money.

"Immediately send a few teams to search the various official roads. Once you find someone from the Zhu Family, come back and report immediately." The Governor ordered, "Now the key thing is to know, where are the people who proposed to the Zhu Family?"

"Yes!" A confidant ran out, and he would personally lead someone to check on the members of the Zhu Family.

Then, the Governor said to Shen Lang, "Young man, I don't have a good opinion of you. But what you told is very important, and you have made great contributions. I will definitely give you a big reward. Tell me what you want, as long as it does not violate the laws of the country." As long as it does not violate the moral code, I can agree to everything."

Scott Shen's favor for the Governor immediately increased again.

This is called refreshing, and the matter has not been verified, and the reward is directly given.

Governor Earl already understood the meaning very well, no matter how much money or land Scott Shen wanted, he just had to say a number. And no matter what trouble Scott Shen has, Governor Earl is willing to solve it.

In other words, the Xu Family, Lin Family and Tian Heng's crisis to Scott Shen can be resolved in an instant.

All you need is for the Governor to send someone to pass a word, and the three families promise not to touch Scott Shen again.

However, Scott Shen wanted more than these.

Such an important bargaining chip is too cheap just to get rid of this crisis and to deal with the Xu Family and Tian Heng.

What he wants is to take the opportunity to stay in the Governor's Mansion, and then find a way to get close to Mulan Jin, keep showing off, keep showing off his presence, and finally marry... the goddess.

Scott Shen swore that with his talent and handsome face, he would be able to impress the goddess in half a month at most.

"I want to stay in the Governor's Mansion and ask for an errand."Scott Shen bowed.

He didn't mention the Xu Family and Tian Heng's plan to murder him, because there was no need to mention it, as long as he stayed in the Governor's Mansion and had a job, these two families would naturally not dare to touch his family.

The Governor's Mansion immediately frowned after hearing this. He had a bad impression of Scott Shen before. It's fine for a dignified young man to eat, be lazy, and not study hard. The key point is to become the Xu Family's son-in-law. This is greed for vanity , Huge unfilial piety.

Moreover, he felt that Scott Shen wanted to stay in the Governor's Mansion with bad intentions. In fact, the Governor's eyes were very sharp.

However, since he said it, he will definitely agree.

Moreover, Scott Shen is still young, even if he has any bad habits, he can be corrected under the strict discipline of the Governor's Mansion.

The Governor said, "Since you want to find a job in the Governor, I can promise you, and you have made a report, I will definitely not let you be a servant, but..."

The Governor's tone became severe, and he said, "However, you come to my Governor's Mansion to enjoy the blessings, and you will not be made to be lazy. Instead, you will be disciplined very severely. Can you bear this hardship?"

suffer? !

Forget it then, the last thing Scott Shen wants in this life is to suffer and toil.

But for the sake of the goddess, it is okay to suffer for a few days temporarily. Of course, it is only a few days, and it will be unbearable.

"Yes!" Of course Scott Shen agreed.

Then, Governor Earl stepped forward and squeezed Scott Shen's shoulder, shook his head and said, "Your physical fitness is too poor, and you are too old to practice martial arts. At this age, you have to study hard to have a future. From now on, you will study with Governor's Son." Well, your parents dote on you, but I, the Governor's Mansion, will not, so I must polish you well."

Scott Shen couldn't help being startled, isn't this the senior companion book boy in Flirting Scholar (movie title)?

"Okay, you are injured after all, go to rest first, and tomorrow you will study with the Governor's Son, I will send someone from your parents to inform, and then send a sum of Gold Coins there."The Earl said, "If you have any trouble, I will It will be resolved together.”

Look, the big man is so grand.

"Yes, Governor Earl." Shen Lang said.

The Governor's Wife said, "Rian Jin, go to the tailor in the mansion to measure Shen Lang's body and make some new clothes."

"Yes." The old servant said.

There was warmth in Scott Shen heart again, the Governor and Madam are really nice people.

"Governor, Madam, Miss, the villain will take his leave first."Scott Shen bowed and bowed, and then withdrew.

However, before he reached the door, a person rushed in. It was the Governor's confidant. He was just about to lead his troops to the official road to find out where the people of the Zhu Family were, and he came back in less than a quarter of an hour. .

"Master, something is wrong!" The confidant knelt down and said, "Our spies in Nujiang County just sent a letter from Feige, a certain important person from the Zhu Family has arrived in Nujiang City last night, and the direction is our Earl Xuanwu's Governor's Mansion. !"

"What?" the Governor exclaimed.

"What?"Scott Shen exclaimed in his heart.

This is fatal!

He has successfully carried out the first step and stayed in the Governor's Mansion.

In the next few days, he will perform the second step, constantly performing, and constantly playing with the sense of presence.

Then came the third step, finding a way to enter the Governor's Mansion.

That's right, it's a marriage.

Because the current situation is very simple, it is absolutely impossible for Mulan Jin to marry outside.

But the big man of the Zhu Family has already arrived in Nujiang City, and he will go to Earl Xuanwu's Governor's Mansion to propose to Mulan Jin tonight, which means that he has no time at all.

There is simply not enough time for continuous performance and presence.

Damn, don't give me half a month, don't give me three days, don't even give me a day!

In other words, Mulan Jin is getting married today, and Scott Shen only has two or three hours of time at most!

Otherwise, his goddess will belong to others, and his glory and wealth will also fly away.

No, the goddess is mine!
