Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister-Chapter 856 - 466: Not Much, Just Everything!
Imperial City.
Within the Three Judicial Departments.
Cai Kun looked gravely at Zhan Tian, who wore a relaxed expression above him.
Eighty percent of the officials, along with the top families of the Imperial City, were protesting against the actions of the Three Judicial Departments, which had severely affected the stability of Great Yu.
Yet, this man was not worried at all; in fact, he was quite smug.
"Look at you, all worried..."
Zhan Tian picked his ear, then flicked his little finger, sending a bean-sized bit of earwax flying in a perfect arc. "Much better..."
He was very satisfied.
Then he continued to look at Cai Kun, "It’s nothing major. I’ve got your back, what are you afraid of?"
"Elder Zhan..."
Cai Kun was truly weary, it sounded easy when he said it.
He hardly managed any of the affairs of the Three Judicial Departments. Ever since Wu Yue entered the Library Pavilion, everything had been pressed onto him alone.
Now, the pressure faced by those brothers in the Three Judicial Departments outside was something he couldn’t feel.
Some had even begun to hint at threats.
If they continued to ignore it, there might indeed be chaos.
"You’re not out there, you wouldn’t know the pressure our brothers in the Three Judicial Departments are under; we really can’t continue like this."
Cai Kun painstakingly persuaded.
But how could Zhan Tian’s temperament be so easily changed?
It would also mean slapping his own face.
"Nonsense, I’m telling you, no one is allowed to slack off, or don’t blame me for being ruthless."
Zhan Tian’s eyes glared wide, and he no longer seemed as casual as before, revealing a trace of ferocity.
"Let them be cheap with their words, this time, let them hurt, unless Emperor Yu speaks, it won’t be so easy."
This tone was something he wanted to expel.
It was also to establish authority, to let these people know the meaning of reverence.
Of course, the reason Zhan Tian was so fearless was that he was entirely in the right; who dared to speak a word against eradicating Hidden Kill?
And it wasn’t just this.
"How much longer will it take?"
Cai Kun knew the old man’s temperament; since he said so, further persuasion would only be wasting words.
He only hoped the time would not be too long.
"Let them hurt! Hurt to the core!"
With that, a fierce light flashed in Zhan Tian’s eyes.
...
In the Prince’s Mansion.
"Your Highness, we can’t continue like this; now the monthly profit is only about fifty percent of what it was before."
Pang Zhuo looked anxiously at Qin Tiandao.
If it wasn’t for no other way, he wouldn’t dare disturb him.
It’s known that many of Your Highness’s enterprises were secretly managed by the Pang Family.
Now that the Three Judicial Departments were acting this way, it was not only damaging the Pang Family’s interests but also Qin Tiandao’s.
For this reason, he dared to come here.
"Is the impact that significant?"
Qin Tiandao furrowed his brow, his expression turning unpleasant.
As the Eldest Prince of Great Yu, to draw the support of the court officials and those great families, it wasn’t enough to rely on words; the key was still money.
Moreover, he secretly supported many people, which was no small expense.
He knew the actions of the Three Judicial Departments would have an impact, but he didn’t expect it to be this large.
"Your Highness, those inns are okay, but the pleasure quarters, I don’t know if they’re being deliberately targeted, are key inspection points for the Three Judicial Departments, several times a day."
"You know these places are for enjoyment; being constantly watched, how can there be any fun? Initially, it was nothing, but over time, business naturally suffers."
Throughout history, what place is the most profitable? The pleasure quarters definitely rank at the top.
Facing beautiful women, those high officials and young masters are very generous.
The gold-spending places are indeed no joke.
A pleasure quarter, with good business, could generate as much as an inn in ten days to half a month.
Most of the enterprises Qin Tiandao entrusted to the Pang Family were pleasure quarters spread across the Great Yu Hundred Mansions.
One can imagine the loss caused by the disruption of the Three Judicial Departments.
"Should Your Highness go and see Zhan Tian?"
Pang Zhuo tentatively asked.
But he was met with a look as if he were a fool.
This matter had justifiable grounds for Zhan Tian’s actions, and being a prince of Great Yu, there was no reason to oppose it.
Besides, Zhan Tian, that stubborn old man... he wouldn’t show him any favor.
"You should go back first. This issue isn’t just affecting me; those others are also affected, no rush, the Three Judicial Departments won’t hold on for long."
Having touched so many people’s interests, even Zhan Tian couldn’t withstand it.
"But...."
Pang Zhuo was still not resigned; after all, each day was an astronomical loss.
"Enough!"
Qin Tiandao’s tone grew heavier, and an invisible majesty suddenly appeared, pressing Pang Zhuo not to speak further.
He slowly approached the throne and sat down, "Let it be."
"Yes!"
Though unwilling, upon reflection, he gave in.
"Zhan Tian seems to be playing for real this time."
After Pang Zhuo left, Mr. Wu slowly spoke. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"That’s his nature. With the Three Judicial Departments being ridiculed like that, if he doesn’t regain face, then he isn’t Zhan Tian."
He was quite familiar with this pillar of Great Yu.
"So that’s it?"
Mr. Wu looked at him in surprise; he hadn’t seemed so relaxed earlier.
"Heh!"
Qin Tiandao chuckled, then slowly said, "Heartache is to be expected, but on second thought, if I’m affected, those few are even worse off."
Moreover, in comparison to his few brothers, his background was more substantial.
Actually, the more impatient ones shouldn’t be him.
"By the way, what Pang Zhuo just mentioned, was the fact that all Molan Mansion’s enterprises were swallowed by some force just a coincidence?"
Qin Tiandao looked at Mr. Wu.
In a short time, all of Molan Mansion’s industries, whether pleasure quarters, inns, or hotels, had been dismantled by a certain force.
