Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 420 Everyone’s thoughts

Two hours later, Lord Liu left with a grim face!

There were fifty thousand disaster victims, and Commander Wang demanded one third of his food and fodder!

He really suffered a big loss this time!

However, saving a life is also a win!

At the same time, Jiang Chen's series of actions in Jiangnan were also known to all forces.

Among them, the Eight Wise Kings were the first to know.

"Haha, that's interesting!"

"This Jiang Chen, holding my nephew's sword, really gave those people in Jinling a hard time!"

"Execute first and report later, the Emperor has given special permission!"

“It’s really extraordinary!”

In the hall of the palace, the Eighth Wise King smiled coldly.

“Your Highness, Jiang Chen is here with ill intentions. Should we be on guard?” A middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a long gown, persuaded the Eighth Wise King.

This person was none other than Yao Chao, the top strategist under the Eighth Wise Kings!

It is said that this person was once a famous talent in the Jiangnan region.

He also went to the capital to look for ways to become an official in the court as he wished.

But he didn't expect that the imperial court only wanted children from aristocratic families.

So, he came back and followed the Eight Wise Kings.

"Haha, this Jiang Chen must be a smart man. He will definitely pacify Jinling County first, and then take care of Yangzhou County!"

"By the time he arrives in Suzhou County, I'm afraid the drought will have passed."

"By then, it will be too late!"

"What's more, there is the Holy Mother Church and the remnants of the previous dynasty in Yangzhou. It's not certain whether Jiang Chen can survive!"

The Eighth Wise King smiled coldly.

In his opinion, Jiang Chen might not be able to hold on until Suzhou.

But Yao Chao looked worried.

He always felt that this Jiang Chen was no simple person and might be their biggest enemy!

So...it's better to be cautious.

……

On the other side, Yangzhou.

"Haha, Jiang Chen is here, how interesting!"

"The court actually uses him!"

"It seems that God is helping us!"

After hearing the news that Jiang Chen had arrived, Miss Yang said with a smile on her face.

"Little sister, you don't want to win over Jiang Chen, do you?"

"Now that Jiang Chen is being promoted, he may not necessarily follow us!"

The young master looked worried.

If Jiang Chen came by himself, he would definitely not be afraid.

However, Jiang Chen still has two thousand guards.

Those guards are all elite!

"Haha, big brother, don't worry. I have been in contact with Jiang Chen for a period of time. I know Jiang Chen's character. He is also dissatisfied with the court."

"We may be able to win them over."

"What's more, if it doesn't work, we still have Su Yue!"

Miss Yang smiled confidently.

"Su Yue!?"

"Are you planning to give Su Yue to Jiang Chen!?"

"No, absolutely not!"

"That concubine was not selected, but Su Yue can also enter the palace. We...we..."

The young master hurriedly stopped him.

Although he said nice things.

But everyone knew that he couldn't bear to part with Su Yue.

“Brother, if Su Yue is exchanged for Jiang Chen, it must be worth it!”

"What's more, if Jiang Chen swears to death not to follow us, we can still let Su Yue assassinate him. Isn't that... not good?"

"The imperial envoy, Marquis Jingyuan, died in Jiangnan. What a huge blow this is!"

Miss Yang couldn't help laughing as she spoke.

"This……"

The young master looked helpless.

Although he likes Su Yue.

But no one allowed him to touch Su Yue.

Could it be that Su Yue’s initiative wasn’t his?

At the same time, in the Yangzhou branch of the Holy Mother Church.

……

"Master, this court destroyed our Luzhou County branch and is the enemy of our Holy Mother Church!"

"Now that they have sent Jiang Chen to Jiangnan, they must be here to deal with our Holy Mother Church!"

"This Jiang Chen must not be allowed to stay!"

"Yes, Master, we can't leave Jiang Chen behind!"

"He must be killed!"

"Yes, let's teach the imperial court a lesson and let them know that we, the Holy Mother Church, are not to be trifled with!"

"That's right!"

The Virgin Mary Church members spoke angrily.

But the leader said nothing.

The leader was wearing a white robe and a white veil covering his face, looking extremely holy.

Her bright big eyes looked at the Saint Xuanxuan beside her.

"Xuanxuan, you have come into contact with Jiang Chen. I wonder...what do you think of him?"

As soon as the leader said this, everyone looked at the saint!

“Master, fellow captains, in my opinion, Jiang Chen has deep feelings for the people, which is in line with the teachings of our Holy Mother Church!”

"In fact, we can consider recruiting him into the Holy Mother Church!"

"Think about it, everyone. If the emperor's confidant is from our Holy Mother Church, wouldn't it be easier for us to accomplish our future great things?"

"As for the Luzhou County branch..."

"Haha, Captain Li deserves to die!"

"He took matters into his own hands and launched a rebellious speech, causing our Holy Mother Church to be hunted down by the imperial court. This is simply harming us!"

Miss Xuanxuan expressed all her thoughts in one breath.

Upon hearing this, all the helmsmen fell silent.

If we can win over Jiang Chen, that would be the best.

As for Captain Li...

He really deserved to die.

If it weren’t for Captain Li, they wouldn’t be so passive!

……

"Okay, Xuanxuan is right. We can try to win over Jiang Chen first."

"As for Captain Li, he really deserves to die!"

"The court's insider has reported that Captain Li has confessed in prison."

"It is said that he has secretly joined the remnants of the previous dynasty, so he deliberately provoked the court in order to make our Holy Mother Church fight against the court!"

"So...he deserves to die!"

"What!?"

"Captain Li has joined the remnants of the previous dynasty!?"

"How can this be!?"

"It's very likely! Otherwise why would he do this!"

"He deserves to die!"

"That's right! Damn it!"

Everyone yelled angrily.

After seeing this situation, the leader looked at Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan nodded and followed the leader to the backyard.

"Xuanxuan, are you confident in winning over Jiang Chen?"

"Does this Jiang Chen have any shortcomings?"

The leader asked Xuanxuan with a smile on his face.

"Master, then... Jiang Chen has a shortcoming, which is... he is lustful."

"As for winning him over, it should be possible."

"I have met him in Luzhou County. He treats the people differently from other officials."

"Besides, he also comes from an ordinary family!"

Miss Xuanxuan told everything.

However, when it comes to Jiang Chen's lust, Miss Xuanxuan feels a little embarrassed.

"Haha, this Jiang Chen is from the common people, he is indeed different from other officials!"

"What he did in Jinling was also for the people!"

"As for lust..."

The leader felt helpless.

The most beautiful person in the Virgin Mary Church is Xuanxuan.

Does Xuanxuan have to sacrifice herself?

"Xuanxuan, you decide for yourself. It's best to win her over. If not, such talents cannot be left to the court. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Disciple understands!"
