Chapter 52: The entire ethos of Wu Country has been led astray i

Translator: 549690339

Everyone in Wu Country knows that the current Emperor of Wu loves to go on frequent inspection tours.

During his ten-year reign, after spending the first two years consolidating the royal power and authority, he has made a tour every year for the following eight years.

Of course, every ti he returns from a tour, there’s always a new concubine in the palace.

An unexpected incident occurred during the tour three months ago.

ng Chong took a completely new approach to his vengeance. He didn’t throw himself into martial arts training, nor did he join the bandits in the mountains to gather forces from the underworld for revenge. He didn’t even take the route of serving in the governnt.

After all, the ng Family, led by Tian Ping, is one of the great families, and there are plenty of officials in the court of Wu country related to the ng Family.

ng Chong ca up with an even more ruthless way to exact revenge!

He seized the opportunity of the Emperor of Wu’s tour to launch an assassination!

The Emperor was in his carriage, preparing to indulge in so intimate activities with a newly selected beauty, when he heard a loud roar.

“Tian Ping ng Chong, here to slay the profligate, incompetent, and brutal dog emperor!”

The sudden roar frightened the Emperor of Wu to the point of weakness.

He was absolutely livid.

ng Chong was fierce. He rampaged with a large cleaver, piercing through layers of guards – he even managed to escape successfully!

The Emperor of Wu was livid. After investigation, he found out that the culprit who attempted the assassination was the legitimate lineage of the Tian Ping ng Family!

Banishnt! Total banishnt!

Punishnt to the ninth degree!

It must be punishnt to the ninth degree!

The Emperor imdiately issued a decree, his army marched directly into the ng Family ho and arrested everyone!

The whole ng Family was just dumbfounded.

They didn’t know what had happened, but suddenly they were criminals of high treason!

Once they knew the truth, they cried out in profound injustice!

What an enormous wrong!

The ng Family had just banished ng Chong, and then he went to attempt to assassinate the Emperor?

This was ng Chong’s way of revenge?

Everyone in the ng Family was struck dumb. What on earth was this? Who the hell takes revenge in such a way?

Are you out of your mind?!

This is a capital cri that incurs punishnt to the ninth degree!

The entire court of Wu Country was unsettled due to this assassination attempt, officials were fearful and cautious, anyone associated with the ng Family was thrown into prison.

This is a capital cri punishable by execution up to the ninth degree of kin!

The repercussions were expanding. If punishnt to the ninth degree were implented, it seed like it might even affect so mbers of the imperial family.

In the end, the sentence was total banishnt!

Upon investigation, it appeared that this assassination attempt was actually ng Chong’s revenge against the ng Family.

Though that was the case, the Emperor of Wu wouldn’t excuse the ng Family.

If this precedent were set, wouldn’t others with ulterior motives simply banish a person from their family before committing a treasonous act against the emperor? If the act failed, wouldn’t they avoid involvent?

Where would be the dignity of royal authority?

Where would be his dignity as the Emperor of Wu?

Total banishnt is a must!

This precedent cannot be set!

As a result, the entire ng Family was executed!

On the day of execution, with cries up to heaven and down to earth, they lanted how unjust this was and cursed at ng Chong. How dare he exact revenge in such a way?

News of this spread throughout Wu Country. Everyone was dumbstruck. Who takes revenge in such a way?

What kind of mind could conceive such a ruthless thod of revenge?

The most ridiculous thing was that ng Chong, the culprit of the assassination attempt on the Emperor of Wu, actually escaped…

The Emperor of Wu issued a reward for his capture!

Caption: Ten thousand Gold!

After hearing the reason, Li Xuan found his view towards ng Chong had changed.

This bald youth sure thinks differently.

“Didn’t you just say that there was a bounty of ten thousand Gold on his head? Why did you say earlier that the Wu Country offered a hundred thousand Gold?”

Li Xuan suddenly noticed sothing wrong.

ng Chong said that he had a bounty of ten thousand Gold on his head, and he had been hiding and fleeing all the way to Qi Country to seek refuge.

However, Shi’er had said the reward was a hundred thousand Gold!

Shi’er’s face twitched, he looked at ng Chong with a sort of awe – this natural bald youth had invented such a unprecedented thod of revenge.

H

Sir, the thing is, ng Chong’s thod of revenge has set an example for others…”

Shi’er looked at ng Chong peculiarly, recounting what had happened after ng Chong had attempted to assassinate the Emperor of Wu.

ng Chong’s unprecedented thod of revenge had spread across Wu Country, naturally becoming a big topic of conversation.

Unexpectedly, it led to a trend throughout the whole Wu Country.

In Wu Country, a servant of the forr Minister of Personnel fell in love with a woman. However, she was taken by force by the son of the Minister.

The servant sought justice, but instead, his parents were killed, and he was brutally beaten, suffering tornt every day.

The Minister’s son, sowhat sadistic, would frequently beat the servant and repeatedly claim the woman he loved right in front of him.

He wouldn’t kill the servant.

Only torture him!

Upon hearing of ng Chong’s actions, the servant was inspired.

He suddenly understood what he needed to do in order to seek revenge.

He managed to escape when no one was watching and hid himself. He made a bow and stole a knife.

After the assassination attempt on ng Chong had cald down, the Emperor of Wu went on another tour, completing the one he couldn’t finish last ti.

But!

He was assassinated again!

The servant from the Minister of Personnel’s residence had dared to attack him!

“The tyrant must die!”

With this roar, the Emperor of Wu was enraged.

The servant was killed!

Upon investigation, he was found to be a servant from the Minister of Personnel’s household.

Execution!

The whole household had to be executed!

The Minister of Personnel and his entire family cried out that they had been wronged!

However, the Emperor’s authority could not be challenged, even if the revenge was sought by a servant.

Better to kill wrongly than let anyone escape!

This precedent could not be set!

The entire household of the Minister of Personnel was executed!

Word of this spread, and the culture of Wu Country began to twist.

The Emperor of Wu once again attempted a tour, trying to complete the previous two failed ones. However, he was assassinated yet again!

The assassin was the nephew of the Prince of the Warriors!

His mother had been insulted by the Prince of the Warriors and was driven to suicide.

So, he decided to follow ng Chong and seek revenge!

The Emperor of Wu was in distress!

Execution!

Execution of the entire household!

The household of the Prince of the Warriors was also executed.

The officials of the imperial court were in turmoil.

All these were consequences of ng Chong’s actions!

Everyone advised the Emperor of Wu to stop touring and to just stay within the palace!

If he toured again, there would be no telling which other high-ranked officials might be executed!

The Emperor ended up feeling pressured to stop his tours.

Just when it seed like things were calming down, another high-ranked official was assassinated.

A servant from a powerful rchant’s house, feeling humiliated, took it upon himself to assassinate the official!

The rchant’s family was imprisoned, and their entire estate confiscated.

If the officials can’t be assassinated, then the ministers will be assassinated!

The entire culture in Wu Country had been led astray.

The way hoowners looked at their servants was full of vigilance. If they treated their servants kindly, wouldn’t their authority be rendered aningless? It was unheard of for them to treat these lowly people well.

They couldn’t possibly be associated with such people, could they?

If they spoke harsh words and mistreated their servants, they feared the servants might retaliate with assassination.

The ministers, too, were uneasy. They feared assassination while going out and worried that a servant might get a crazy idea to take up arms in their own ho.

If they let go of their pride and treated their servants well, wouldn’t their authority be worthless?

Where would their dignity as a lord lie then?

The servants of the rich families in Wu Country were also suffering. They were afraid that their masters might suspect them of wanting to seek revenge, and be beaten to death to prevent them from attempting assassination.

The whole atmosphere in Wu Country had been led astray.

All this was because of ng Chong!

In Wu country, a popular saying had begun to spread: “Want to seek revenge? Follow ng Chong!”.

This was truly a disaster!

The Emperor of Wu increased the bounty, swearing to capture ng Chong and have him executed by quartering!

All the officials were very supportive, and they were willing to contribute their own wealth to increase the reward.

They raised the bounty to an astonishing one hundred thousand taels of gold!
