Chapter 159: Inhumanity
The people in Shenjia Village were overjoyed, and each of them was happier than during the Chinese New Year.
God knows, let alone the top scholar, there is not even a single Jinshi in their entire county, let alone this small mountain village of Shenjia Village.
Now, this small mountain village of Shenjia Village has produced a top scholar, and he is the top scholar who has won the top three places in the imperial examination.
Their Shenjia Village is famous throughout the country!
The new county magistrate was also very happy. He had not expected that such a good thing would happen to him just after taking office.
Therefore, the newly arrived magistrate Wen waved his hand, and the county government provided manpower and money to set up a memorial archway for the top scholar and a memorial archway for the Jinshi degree in Shenjia Village.
Not only that, Wenzhi County vigorously developed the county's economy and agriculture in accordance with the previous county plan, focusing on the area connecting Shenjia Village and Dashan Village.
Because Wuxi County produces salt, the salt produced is transported to all parts of the country, which has greatly developed the county's economy.
People throughout the county are living better and better.
In the capital, after taking the Qingxin Mingmu Pills given by Shen Mingzhu, Madam Su drank the Lingquan water handed to her by Shen Mingzhu. Not long after, the old lady's eyes suddenly became able to see again.
This made everyone in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion very happy, and they said they had met a god.
Since the elixir was given by Shen Mingzhu, the Su family believed that Shen Mingzhu was a fairy who brought blessings to their family, and they all thanked Shen Mingzhu very much.
Especially the old lady, who had been blind for so many years and thought she would never see her precious daughter again in this life, but she never expected that her daughter would come back.
Her granddaughter also helped her regain her sight. Old Madam Su once again hugged Su and cried with joy, unable to stop.
A large family surrounded Shen Mingzhu, praising her to the sky and giving her all kinds of jewelry, gold, silver and money.
This made Shen Mingzhu very happy. She didn't expect that just because she wanted her grandmother to be able to see again, she could get so many benefits.
She only spent one thousand taels of silver to buy the Qingxin Mingmu Pills, but now she has obtained more than a dozen boxes of jewelry and more than 100,000 taels of silver.
The system was overjoyed, "Host, hurry up and exchange more health pills and recovery pills for your grandparents!"
"Your grandfather and your uncles look healthy on the surface, but in fact their bodies have been drained out and they have become ill from overwork. If they are not treated, your grandfather and uncles will not live long."
Shen Mingzhu was stunned, thinking that her grandfather and uncle had been leading troops in wars all year round, and they must have many chronic diseases.
When she thought about how good the people in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion were to her, and for the sake of so many treasures, Shen Mingzhu exchanged a dozen health pills and recovery pills for the Su family.
The Duke of Zhenguo was shocked to see that his wife's eyes had really recovered. For his wife's eyes, he had invited countless famous doctors, but none of them could cure his wife. How could his granddaughter cure his wife's eyes with just one pill?
The Duke of Zhenguo was so excited that he held Shen Mingzhu's hand, not knowing how to thank Shen Mingzhu. In the end, he gave Shen Mingzhu an iron plate.
It is said that this is the military token, and Shen Mingzhu can mobilize the three armies with this token.
Shen Mingzhu was holding the iron plate with a tiger head and was stunned: "Is this a tiger talisman?"
"Yes, this is half of the tiger talisman. The other half is in my hand. With this half of the tiger talisman in your hand, you can mobilize half of the Daqian Dynasty's army."
The Duke of Zhenguo explained that this was the Su family's trump card and asked Shen Mingzhu to keep it well. Even the emperor wanted to take back this iron plate.
The unexpected gift frightened Shen Mingzhu.
What is Grandpa doing? Are you trying to scare her to death?
Half of the entire Daqian Dynasty’s army, what are they doing?
Shen Mingzhu felt that her little heart could not take it anymore.
She pinched her leg with her hand and felt the pain, then she realized that she was not dreaming.
She really had a tiger talisman in her hand that could mobilize thousands of troops.
Her grandfather is so rich and inhumane!
This, this is too shocking!
No, since ancient times, hasn't the army been the lifeblood of the entire country? How could Grandpa hand it over to her so carelessly?
Not only Shen Mingzhu, but even Shen Laosan was stunned with shock.
The father-in-law of his time was simply too horrible! What kind of grandfather was this? He actually gave his granddaughter an army.
It would be better for him to be well behaved in front of his father-in-law. This father-in-law is even more difficult to deal with than the one in his previous life.
Shen Laosan shrank his neck and was so scared that he tried to reduce his presence.
Shen Mingzhu blinked her big eyes and looked at the Duke of Zhenguo in disbelief.
Not only Shen Mingzhu was shocked, but even Shen Lao San and Su Shizi, everyone in the Su family was so shocked that their eyes widened.
Tiger Tally! This is half of the military management rights of the Daqian Dynasty. Did my father just hand it over to a little girl like Shen Mingzhu?
How old is the little girl? How can her father treat her like this?
What Prince Su was thinking at this time was that if the officials outside knew that his father had given the army's tiger talisman to Shen Mingzhu, it would definitely bring disaster to Shen Mingzhu.
Seeing that everyone looked incredulous, the Duke of Zhenguo warned them:
"No one is allowed to spread the news of the tiger talisman. If I find out who spreads it, you should know the consequences."
At this time, the Duke of Zhenguo showed the majesty of a superior, which frightened everyone in the Su family so much that they nodded in agreement.
When Shen Lao San opened his mouth to refuse, the Duke of Zhenguo glanced at him coldly:
"You don't need to say more. Since I gave the tiger talisman to Zhuzhu, it proves that in my heart, Zhuzhu has the same status as the prince of the Zhenguo Duke. I also believe that Zhuzhu has the ability to manage the tiger talisman well."
The Duke of Zhenguo remembered very clearly that when he asked the Imperial Master to come to his house to treat his wife's eyes, the Imperial Master once said:
"Coming from the southwest, descending from the sky, the Golden Phoenix returns home, and the blind regain their sight. This is a blessing for the Su family and Daqian."
For the past twenty years, he has been pondering the meaning of the national teacher's words. Now, his granddaughter, Shen Mingzhu, cured his wife's eyes with just a sugar pill.
The granddaughter and her family came from the southwest. My wife's eyesight had recovered, which was exactly what the national teacher said.
But the Duke of Zhenguo could not understand why the golden phoenix fell from the sky and returned to the palace.
Guifu means to return home. Golden Phoenix, Golden Phoenix, Golden Phoenix returns home.
Instantly, the Duke of Zhenguo understood the meaning of the Imperial Master's words, and then he thought about how the Imperial Master had always been very smart and had never made a mistake.
What's more, the Duke of Zhenguo made this decision because he felt his granddaughter's inner strength, which was stronger than his own, as well as her extraordinary temperament and wisdom.
The Duke of Zhenguo looked at Shen Mingzhu, who was holding the tiger talisman without panic and was calm and composed, and felt that he had made the right decision.
He believed that since the emperor could confer the title of Lady of the County on Shen Mingzhu, his granddaughter must be no ordinary person.
He wanted to entrust the entire fate of the Duke of Zhenguo and even half of the Daqian Dynasty to this golden phoenix.
