Ruthless enough!

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were amazed one by one.

Now they finally know how ruthless a woman is, many people gloated and looked at Duke Lion, asking you to offend a woman, now you know how powerful a woman is.

What is the territory is the lifeblood of a nobleman.

The nobles who owned the territory could do whatever they wanted in their own territory, issue laws, adjust taxes, and even pull up a large number of soldiers, and the powerful nobles did not even pay attention to the emperor's orders.

However, if the territory is lost, the nobles are left with only one title of nobility.

Other than that, nothing.

The Zhang family's territory has been operated for generations, and it has long been built into an impregnable wall, even if it is the order of His Majesty the Emperor, it is not easy to use the order of the Zhang family.

Now, Duke Isabel wants the territory of the Zhang family, which is digging the roots of the Zhang family.

Once the territory is lost, the Manchu Dynasty can be sure that within three generations, the Zhang family will lose the position of duke, if there is no major improvement, it will continue to decline, thus losing the title of nobleman and becoming a commoner.

Since the establishment of the Crown Empire, how many famous nobles have been reduced to mediocrity step by step, and even cut off their inheritance and disappeared into history.

Therefore, territory is the foundation of an aristocracy.

Of course, the Lion Duke also knew this, but it was precisely because he knew that when he heard that Isabel wanted his own territory, his face was gloomy and almost dripping.

"Duke Isabel, you want the Zhang family to be doomed. ”

"It's just one of each other. Duke Isabel said, "Crown Cup, if I lose, the Isabel family should have become your bag." ”

She smiled slightly and continued: "It's a pity, the sky doesn't follow people's wishes. ”

Duke Lion took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "I have one more question. ”

"Speak. ”

"Where is my son. ”

"I don't understand what you're saying. Duke Isabel shook his head and said indifferently.

"The other day, I signed a document for my son, exactly like this piece of paper, and since this paper has fallen into your hands, then you must return my son to me. ”

"I don't understand what you're saying. Duke Isabel still said the same thing, but he couldn't help but think of Zhang Xuan, a boy who was so angry that he imprisoned the son of the old lion.

She knew that the heirs of such big families had magic arrays on their bodies, and once they died, the magic arrays would collapse, and the Lion Duke would know that his son was dead.

Now, when the other party asks for a son from him, it means that his son is not dead.

It is quite possible that he was imprisoned.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. The Duke of Lion said, "I can give you the territory, but I have only one request, to give me my son." ”

Duke Isabel said indifferently: "It seems that you really don't believe me, but it doesn't matter, I can accept any magic test, I haven't touched your son, and I don't know where your son is." ”

After a pause, she said: "There are some things that I will not do, this is the tacit understanding of our nobles. ”

Killing the other party's heir is something that you really can't do, and once you open your mouth, the consequences are too serious.

Today you kill my heir, tomorrow I kill your heir, will the empire have a future?

The emperor is going to go crazy.

That's the bottom line, Duke Isabel won't do it.

The Lion Duke glanced at the other party a few times, and suddenly asked, "Who gave you this thing?" ”

Duke Isabel said indifferently: "Didn't you lose to me." ”

"Female fox. The lion duke's heart itched with hatred, but he didn't say anything, and said: "I still say the same thing, my son will give me, and the territory will be given to you." ”

Duke Isabel shook his head, "If you want to say that, I don't want the territory, give me eighteen magic spar veins, and none of them will be missing." If you don't pay it back after the deadline, double it!"

The Lion Duke threw a mouse, and finally flicked his sleeves and said: "The territory is given to you, and I will send the contract of the territory to your mansion in three days." ”

After that, he bowed his head slightly and said to His Majesty the Emperor: "Your Majesty, the minister is unwell and wants to retire first, and I ask Your Majesty for approval." ”

The emperor sighed, looked at the Lion Duke, who had lost a mess in this game, and said softly: "Since Aiqing is unwell, let's go back first." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The Duke of Lion turned around and left.

After Duke Lion left, His Majesty the Emperor looked at Duke Isabel and said: "This time, Isabel Qing won a big victory, and Yu is also happy for you to arrive, but I hope Isabel Qing will not be too embarrassed Zhang Qing, he is not young." ”

"Minister, you have always been considerate of each other. Duke Isabel smiled and said.

"That's good. ”

His Majesty the Emperor said: "Now that the matter has come to light, you should retreat, you are tired and want to rest." ”

"Minister, retire. ”

After Duke Isabel left the palace, he was immediately surrounded by the Manchu civil and military forces.

After the defeat of the Zhang family, Duke Isabel's status in the empire naturally rose, and this group of ministers naturally had to stammer.

In particular, those ministers who are not nobles have become the top of the Empire because of their outstanding political achievements, but only in their generation, and if there are no outstanding talents among the descendants, they will be beaten back to their original form once they abdicate.

It is completely different from the nobles who have been nobles for generations and have territories.

Duke Isabel, in particular, is one of the best.

They are a group of people, and they will naturally understand this.

......

At night, when Zhang Xuan heard the news, he jumped up excitedly.

"What a job it did. He couldn't help muttering to himself, it has been more than half a year since he came to this world, and he knows very well what will happen to a nobleman who has lost his territory.

That's why he was so happy.

The more miserable the Zhang family was, the more excited he became.

After all, he and the Zhang family already have a great hatred, basically unable to resolve it, when Zhang Qiming hired the Thousand Transformations Witch to assassinate Zhang Xuan, if he didn't have a game store, he would be dead now.

In other words, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhang Xuan died once.

So between the Zhang family and Zhang Xuan, there is actually a murderous feud, even if Zhang Xuan is magnanimous, it is impossible to forgive the Zhang family, so he gave the Zhang family a big gift with his backhand.

Now that he heard that the Zhang family was unlucky, Zhang Xuan was naturally happy, but in the bottom of his heart, Zhang Xuan actually had some regrets.

Because the Duke of Lion is not dead.

For Zhang Xuan himself, this is very dangerous, if the lion of the Zhang family knows that this matter is related to him, he may kill Zhang Xuan desperately.

So for Zhang Xuan, only a dead lion duke is a good lion duke.
