Yan Wang was originally a little afraid of Su Chen, but she did not expect that she and her mother would hear that Su Chen wanted to destroy Yan's Dock and capture two maids as soon as they entered the city lord's manor. This made Yan Wang afraid and ran over to question Su Chen.
"Greetings, Madam. Greetings, Princess."
Wang Meng had also been informed by Zhao Kuan that the Ruler's wife and daughter were here. He looked at the angry young princess and felt a little awkward.
He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. This was the ruler's family matter and he didn't want it to affect the ruler and his wife.
Wang Meng, go and do your work."
Su Chen did not expect Jing Li and Yan to come over at this time. What happened just now might have caused them to misunderstand, but Su Chen did not know how to explain it now.
"Yes, Ruler!"
When Wang Meng heard this, he quickly ran out. He saw that Madam Jun's face was cold. If something happened, he would only make the Ruler feel awkward.
"Su Chen, do you think you can face my mother?”
"What the hell, girl, why do you make me sound like a heartless man? I'm just looking for some maids for you and your mother.”
"Why don't I believe what you said? Are you lying to me?”
"No. How about this? If I bring back those two maids, I'll leave them to you.”
"That's more like it. Then it's settled. Those two maids will belong to me in the future.”
"Yes, yes, it's yours. Now let's go and see our home.”Su Chen smiled as he picked Yan up and pulled the salamander's hand into the room.
Shocked Salamander followed Su Chen with a red face. She was also helpless against Lord Wu Xiang now, but when Shocked Salamander saw how happy Yan Xiang was, he did not break free.
more than a month later
Gusu City had already returned to its former liveliness. Moreover, Su Chen had also abolished many exorbitant taxes. This made the people of Gusu City express their gratitude to Lord Wu Xiang.
Without those exorbitant taxes, Gusu City became more and more prosperous. Some merchants also came to Gusu City to start their businesses. Now, the population of Gusu City was also increasing rapidly.
Su Chen had also produced distilled liquor in the past month. This kind of high-grade liquor was very popular as soon as it was launched, which also gave Su Chen some extra income.
Lord Wuxiang's Mansion
Su Yan watched Su Chen fiddle with his items and asked," Dad, why hasn't your soaps succeeded yet?"”
"We still have to wait a while. Don't be anxious.”
Su Chen rolled her eyes at Su Yan and was a little speechless. This was the sixth time Su Yan had asked this question. Was Su Yan a little too lively now? He was not like the gentle and quiet Yan in the anime.
Over the past month, Su Chen had finally settled the little girl, Yan. However, Su Chen had not settled the Startling Salamander yet. The Salamander was too cold. Su Chen did not know what to say to the Salamander every time he spoke to her.
Every time, the Terrifying Salamander would say yes," Okay, I understand, I understand." Su Chen felt that he and the Terrifying Salamander seemed to be on two different channels. This made Su Chen not know how to take down the Terrifying Salamander.
Su Chen did not dare to attack the Startling Salamander at night. With the strength of the Startling Salamander's grandmaster level, he was afraid that he would be discovered before he even started the night attack.
"Princess, you should go and study."
A'Zhu came to Su Yan's side and bowed,
A'Zhu looked at Lord Wu Xiang beside her and was a little afraid. She knew that Lord Wu Xiang had almost completely eradicated the Murong family.
There were still martial artists chasing after Murong Fu in the game, and A'Zhu knew that this was Lord Wu Xiang's idea.?
Now that she and Ah Bi had been captured, they were handed over to the young princess, Su Yan, even though they were unwilling to serve the young princess here.
However, after being threatened by Su Chen, they had no choice but to become the maidservants of the young princess. Otherwise, they would really be sent to the brothel by this hateful Lord Wu Xiang.
Su Yan looked at Su Chen and asked expectantly,
"I know, Dad. Can I not study? I know how to write those words."
"Go ask your mother. If she agrees, I'll agree.”Su Chen smiled and said to Su Yan,
Su Chen couldn't wait for this little girl to leave. His soap would take more than two hours to form. If Su Yan stayed here, he would be annoyed to death by this little girl.
"Forget it then. I'll go and study.”
"Who is it? There's an assassin, quickly protect the ruler and the princess!"
At this moment, more than ten masked men in black suddenly appeared. These masked men rushed towards Su Chen. The surrounding guards immediately surrounded Su Chen and Su Yan to protect them.
" Kill this dog official and get rid of evil for the people."
"Go, kill Lord Wuxiang!"
"Kill this tyrannical dog official.”
.......
These masked men shouted and charged at Su Chen. They acted as if Su Chen had killed their parents and shouted angrily as they fought with the guards.
Su Chen pulled Su Yan and looked at the assassins expressionlessly. This was the fourth time this month that someone had tried to assassinate him. Su Chen still had not found out who was trying to kill him.
However, Su Chen suspected that it was the Murong family's doing. Su Chen knew that Murong Fu's father was not dead. That old man had been hiding in the dark and plotting something.
Su Yan wasn't afraid of these assassins. She was used to being chased. However, these assassins weren't very strong. Su Yan felt that they might have been used by someone.
A'Zhu hid beside Su Chen and looked at the assassins. She was also feeling very complicated. Ever since Su Chen came to Gusu City, the people here were living better than ever. Moreover, there were no harsh taxes here.
The commoners only needed to pay some taxes, which was much less than other cities. In fact, the taxes paid by the commoners here were only one-tenth of those in other main cities.
If Su Chen was killed by these assassins, the next city lord might not treat the people as well as Su Chen.
However, A'Zhu thought about how Su Chen had massacred the people of the Murong family. A'Zhu also thought that these assassins could kill Su Chen. Now, A'Zhu did not know whether Su Chen should be killed or not. Her heart was also very chaotic.
"Prepare the crossbows, fire!"
At this moment, the guards immediately raised their crossbows and fired at the assassins under the command of the guard commander.
Swoosh swoosh
"Capture him alive."
After a rain of arrows, the dozen masked men were all shot to the ground. A few of them were still alive, so Su Chen immediately ordered the guards to restrain the surviving assassins.
"Yes, Ruler!"
Su Chen looked at A'Zhu's changing expression and asked coldly,
"A'Zhu, I wasn't killed. Are you very disappointed?”
When A'Zhu heard Su Chen's words, she said nervously,"No, no, I..." I never thought of it that way."
"These assassins better not be led by you and Abby. Otherwise, you should know how I will deal with you.”
