Chapter 025 Laiyan Rebellion
In this thick book of history, those who can be passed down from generation to generation are all so-called great figures. Whether they are famous for generations or have been infamous for thousands of years, at least they have left a rich and colorful mark on the pages of history.
As for the little people, they are of course forgotten existences. However, when we read the history, we often find that the fuses of some far-reaching major events were actually ignited by these inconspicuous little people.
Tang En is undoubtedly a small person now, and he is also a negative character in public opinion. He will not know what kind of storm he killed Vinson in order not to expose his identity, which brought to Lai Yancheng.
One day in the autumn of 554 of the Bran Gregorian calendar, the citizens of Laiyan City lived their usual life. The civilians were always busy for food and clothing, and the nobles were busy for fun. They would not know that this day would become the beginning of the "Laiyan Rebellion" in the future.
There was no sign of turmoil in the Laiyan tabloid that day, and even an exciting news was announced.
The Laiyancheng government decided to expand the terminal in Nangang. The number of expansions was 24, plus the previous 76, which made up exactly 100.
This move is undoubtedly a joy to everyone. For civilians, jobs can be increased. For merchants, the speed of incoming and shipment can be increased. For nobles, this is a naked interest.
Although the nobles had long been heard, the government orders had not been issued yet, and everything was still unknown, so they just made some preparations. Now the government orders have been announced in black and white, and some powerful nobles are naturally ready to do a big fight.
However, before they could completely digest the news, a more explosive news came. The Delk family declared war on Clark and Charles family on the grounds that they hired murderers.
The aristocratic circle in Laiyan City has been calm for too long, and the battle between three powerful viscount families suddenly aroused the strong interest of the nobles.
Among them, the behavior of the Delk family made them puzzled. They declared war on two families with similar strength at the same time. Isn’t this self-destruction? Could it be that Viscount Delk lost his mind because of the loss of his son?
The obvious comparison of strength makes no one optimistic about the Delk family.
However, something that shocked the nobles who were about to watch the fun came again.
The Viscount Andrew family urgently declared war on Clark and Charles.
The Viscount Archil family announced urgently that they would declare war on Clark and Charles families.
The Viscount Chester family...
Viscount Quinier family...
In just one hour, the four Viscounts family submitted a declaration of war to the Clark and Charles family.
The situation that was originally not optimistic about 1-on-2 instantly turned into a crushing situation of 5-on-2.
The aristocratic circle was restless, and the onlookers immediately jumped up and down to inquire about what happened? Is this going to start the battle between the nobles in Laiyan City?
The nobles watching were so shocked, let alone being in it? Viscount Clark and Viscount Charles were completely stunned when they saw the four letters of declaration of war that had just been handed over on the table, which had obviously not dried. How could this person who had no grudges in the past be beaten up...
The two of them came to their senses in a panic and ordered the butler to prepare a heavy gift and send it to the four families who later participated in the war to find out what was going on?
But after a moment, their housekeepers came back with gifts. This made the two of them feel sad, knowing that things were not good.
Then the news from several housekeepers made the two widen their eyes.
The reasons for the four families are the same, they claim to be an ally of the Delk family, and in view of your shameless behavior towards the eldest son of the Delk family, you can no longer bear to declare war on you.
"This is a fucking conspiracy!" The two of them were angry. They declared war like the Delk family for their eldest son to be assassinated. How come they became the murderers of Vinson in the end?
Also, when will your five families form an alliance? You must know that your five families form an alliance and grandson declares war.
No matter how much you scold, things will always have to be faced. This is the moment of life and death of the family. Viscount Clark and Viscount Charles gathered together immediately.
"Is it the assassin you invited?"
"Is it the assassin you invited?"
…………
They were relatively speechless, but this also made the two know that it was not the other party's hornet's nest. Then the two scolded Delk, who was so shameless, and the thief called to catch the thief.
The two of them also knew that verbs would not help solve the problem. After a few words, they quickly discussed countermeasures.
Now the strength of the two sides is very different, and the methods are obvious. Either surrender quickly or attract a few powerful allies to strengthen their momentum.
What? You said that you will start a war and avenge your eldest son's assassination?
Please, what a joke! In this case, let alone the eldest son is not dead, even if the eldest son is killed, he cannot mention revenge. The survival of the family will always be the first priority. After all, if the son dies, he can still be reborn. If the family is gone, it will be completely finished.
However, the two of them were quite hesitant about these two choices. Needless to say, the first one is related to the glory of the family. As for the second one, which nobleman should be found to help the boxing. The low weight is useless, and the high weight is delivered to the door by myself. I don’t know what it is like to be blackmailed...
Before the two of them could finish their trade-offs, the situation was developed rapidly, but it had already concluded the matter.
A housekeeper of the Clark family staggered in and said, "The master is not doing well, but the big thing is not doing well..."
"Bastard, why are you panic?" Viscount Clark was upset. Seeing that his housekeeper was so ungraceful, he gave up his face in front of outsiders and immediately scolded him angrily.
"But……"
"But what! Let's sort out your outfit first. What you wear on your head is a hat, not a shoe!"
"Yes, yes!" The butler quickly smoothed his clothes and put his hat on his face.
Viscount Clark nodded with satisfaction: "Well, let's talk. What's the matter?"
The housekeeper said slowly: "The gang supported by our family was attacked and suffered heavy losses."
"What!" Clark stood up suddenly, "Who did it? Idiot, why didn't you tell me earlier."
"..." The butler was speechless.
The family-supported gang? Charles raised his eyebrows, and of course he knew what this meant.
As mentioned above, the docks in Nangang belong to Brandland in name only. Although in Laiyan City, everyone agreed that a certain family manages a dock. Of course, such taboo things cannot be done explicitly. Therefore, families with control of the docks support a local gang to manage them.
The Clark family also belonged to the later nobles, and they had no wharfs. Now that they formed a gang, they naturally had the intention to compete for the wharfs this time. Now that the gang has been destroyed, why don’t he be anxious?
"Idiot, why are you still standing here? Why don't you notify the family guards and go to rescue them."
"Yes, yes..." The butler started to walk out in response.
"Bastard, you're leaving, run away quickly!" Seeing the butler doing this, the Clark family jumped up and kicked him.
"Yes, yes..." The housekeeper rolled and crawled out again.
"Ouch!" Unexpectedly, before the miserable butler ran out of the door, he was hit by the person coming in, and the two of them suddenly turned into a rolling gourd.
"Master, something is not good!" The man who came in shouted at the top of his voice, regardless of who he hit.
"Tell me!" This time, if it were Charles, who looked as if he was ashen, he had an unknown premonition at this time.
"Our family's fabric shop in West City was smashed..."
"What!" Being prepared does not mean not getting angry. Charles slapped the table and stood up suddenly: "Bastard, who did it?"
"They can't see clearly. They come in with masks and smash things when they see them, beat people when they see them, and left in a few minutes."
"Bastard, it's so crazy. Have you reported to the official?"
"Not yet!"
Viscount Charles stared at her eyes wide and shouted, "Then why are you stupid guys still standing there? Why don't you go quickly?"
“Yes, yes…”
"Master, something is wrong! Our Dongcheng winery was smashed!"
...
"Master, something is wrong! Our hotel in Xicheng was smashed!"
...
Viscount Clark and Viscount Charles heard the "Master" and felt like they heard people crying, and their hands and feet were cold.
Charles' legs trembled and sat back on the chair.
Viscount Clark was old and even worse at this time. His old face turned red, he took a few quick breaths, rolled his eyes, and fell down.
"master!"
"Master, call the doctor."
…………
After a while of rushing, a bowl of big tonic soup was poured in, which finally opened Viscount Clark's eyes again.
The awake Viscount Clark was stunned for a moment and waved his hand powerlessly: "Surrender."
"Oh!" Viscount Charles sighed, without objection.
Now, no matter how stupid the two of them are, they know that these things are not coincidences, but the joint attack of the five major families. Faced with such open conspiracy and naked crushing, there is nothing to think about except surrender.
In the afternoon of the same day, less than half a day passed before the declaration of war. The Clark family and the Charles family announced their surrender and were willing to bear the responsibility for Vinson's death.
The aristocratic circle was silent at this time, and the aristocrats no longer had the mood to watch the excitement at first. The methods of the five major families were clear and clear, quick, accurate, and cruel, and did not give you any reaction time in a storm. This behavior made the aristocrats feel cold, and no one knew whether they would become the next target.
Although the nobles have to be famous for their wars, the reason is not easy to think about? Which powerful nobleman has not had any conflicts with others for so many years? The reason is to get a lot of money from adults and old debts.
While the citizens of Quanlai Rock City were excited to expand the pier, the aristocratic circle was silent. This deadly quiet was like the atmosphere before the storm, which was suffocating.
