Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

——Five years later

The world is settled and the people live in peace.

Jiang Xuan hadn't had a good rest for three whole months. Seeing Chen Xuyan with a refreshed face, he was furious.

"You seem to be quite comfortable traveling outside, and you have completed the main mission." There was resentment in his tone.

It was as if Chen Xuyan had done something that was hated by everyone.

"It wasn't all in vain. I collected a lot of geological information for you." Chen Xuyan took out the information he had collected and organized from the space.

In order to collect this information, he often borrowed the power of props. Fortunately, hard work pays off and his first impression was indeed accurate.

Five years ago, it was a devastating earthquake that allowed Jiang Xuan to truly win over the people, while Yan Chaowen suffered a complete defeat. Some people in Longxi fled, but many remained attached to the Yan family, thanks to the Yan family's long-standing prestige in Longxi. After Yan Guiyuan's death, Yan Chaowen forcibly assembled an army to fight Jiang Xuan, but by then he had completely lost the support of the people.

The result was naturally a complete defeat.

Yan Chaowen's temper was also incredibly strong. Although he had been defeated, he wasn't completely defenseless due to the Yan family's years of accumulated prestige. Jiang Xuan would have had no chance of completely conquering Yan without going to great lengths, even if it took years. Yan Chaowen could have even taken advantage of Jiang Xuan's personal relief efforts to cause trouble, but he chose not to.

He followed Zhou Yusheng's example and chose to commit suicide.

Yan Chaowen was arrogant and could not accept such a complete failure. He was too ashamed to face the people of Longxi who had always supported him. Everything he had said was wrong. He felt that he had no face to live in this world.

With the Yan family leaderless, Yan Chaowen's sister, Yan Chaomu, stepped forward, proclaiming the Yan family's submission to the imperial court and even killing all her cousins ​​who opposed her. This incident still astonishes the world, and her opinions are polarized. Some describe her as courageous and resourceful, making the greatest contribution to preserving the Yan family's rule in Longxi, while others call her heartless and ruthless, brutally killing her own family just to survive.

Jiang Xuan accepted her surrender and agreed to her request for self-government in Longxi, but she had to accept the supervision of the deputy sent by the court.

Yan Chaomu also agreed.

It can be considered a peaceful transition.

Jiang Xuan frowned and asked, "Will there be another big earthquake?"

The main system didn't even mention this plot on its own initiative. It really wanted to trick him and couldn't bear to see him live a peaceful life.

"Yes, it should be two years later." Chen Xuyan calculated the specific time.

The big earthquake five years ago seemed to open Pandora's box. The geological plates have become more and more active. The increasing frequency of small earthquakes in recent years is proof that this is not simply releasing energy, but accumulating energy.

This place happens to be a densely populated area, and we must find a way to relocate most of the population here, but this is not an easy task.

Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "It seems we have to follow the example of our ancestors and carry out a population migration. I just don't know if it can be completed within the next two years."

Population migration is not an easy matter, especially in ancient times when family unity was most valued. It was a very difficult decision for a family to decide which family to let leave.

"Isn't this simple? Create a 'god' and let this god predict a major earthquake. It would be best if you were the one to choose this god, and then let your clone do it, right?" Chen Xuyan thought he had given him a good idea.

Jiang Xuan gritted his teeth and asked, "Why me again? What are you doing?"

"What should I do? I've already gathered such important information for you, what else do I need to do? Of course I don't need to do anything."

"Besides, isn't this your main task?" Chen Xuyan reminded.

He has done so many things out of kindness, so shouldn't he do the rest himself?

Jiang Xuan threw the teacup at Chen Xuyan, but Chen Xuyan dodged quickly. "It's not that hard to break your defense, is it? I've recruited a lot of talented people for you. Aren't these people enough for you?"

"I have to go first. I have a lot of things to do at home."

Chen Xuyan grabbed the hem of his official uniform and quickly ran out of the inner hall. The palace maids and eunuchs in the outer hall had obviously heard the noise just now. They all lowered their heads, pretending that they didn't see Chen Xuyan.

I don't know why, but every time Lord Chen enters the palace, he always makes the emperor furious, yet he always leaves the palace unscathed. But the emperor has a bad temper. If it were anyone else, they would have been beheaded countless times.

It seems that Lord Chen is truly the emperor's favorite, and he is the only one who has this luck.

——Outside Chen Mansion

Wang Zhaowen, who thought he was dressed well, was still begging for a meeting at the door.

Chen Zhao, who had just returned from work, asked, "How long has he been waiting at the door?"

The housekeeper shook his head helplessly, "He's been here for a day. The master said to just leave him alone, and he'll leave naturally."

Chen Zhao, however, felt that he would not back down easily. He looked at the two guards behind him and said, "Ask the Jingzhao Yin to come and take the man away. Our family has nothing to do with this kind of random person."

Back then, his aunt was pregnant and waiting for him in Xianshi County. When he and Yandi went to pick her up, she was even reluctant to leave and wanted to stay in Xianshi County to wait for him. It was not until Yandi persuaded her to save the fetus that she agreed to leave. No one could have imagined that Wang Zhaowen, the beast, had already climbed up the social ladder.

He had long since married the daughter of the Shangshu's second wife in the capital, and had another son and daughter. He even reached the sixth rank through the influence of his wife's family. Poor aunt at home often missed him so much that she lost her appetite and cried while holding her children.

This beast even allowed the vicious woman to send people to Xianshi County to wipe out the roots. She asked people to find a few ruffians to try to force her to marry her, and finally tortured and killed her, trying to completely erase the evidence of her aunt's existence.

Fortunately, my uncle sent people to Xianshi County early in the morning to protect my aunt until she was taken away by them.

Minister He's family had long been liquidated, exiled to Lingnan. He had committed many immoral acts to enrich the Dugu family, and everyone blamed him for his actions. However, he died on the way to Lingnan, leaving him with nothing. Wang Zhao's official position was ill-gotten, and he was completely stripped of his position. He immediately divorced He Wannan, leaving behind only their two children.

Wang Zhaowen met Wu Yuewan by chance on the street three years ago. After finding out her identity, he started to pester her again. Seeing this, Liu Xun directly cut off all his escape routes. Now he is living a life where he can't even make a living.

Look, two years have passed, and he still came to my door without knowing the consequences.

Wang Zhaowen thought that the capital was now in peace and the emperor could distinguish right from wrong. Even if he died, someone would definitely take the opportunity to report the Chen family, so he bravely came again.

Seeing a carriage of considerable importance about to drive into the Chen family's house, Wang Zhaowen hurriedly shouted, "Let me in! I want to go in and find my wife!"

Chen Zhao, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but become even more annoyed. "Don't wait for someone to catch you, just take him over directly."

If people continue to let him yell like that, it will be bad for the Chen family's reputation.

As soon as Chen Zhao returned, he rushed to the garden. There was a beautiful corner in the garden with a chess table. Liu Xun loved to stay here. Now he didn't know when his brother would be back. He had no choice but to consult his uncle when he encountered problems.

It was a good thing that everyone else in the family went to the suburban estate to escape the summer heat, otherwise there would have been another quarrel today.

Liu Xun saw him sitting across from him in a rage, and calmly handed him a cup of tea. "Calm down, why are you fighting with someone like that?"

Wang Zhaowen was just a despicable and shameless villain, but the Chen family was in trouble because they were favored, and their every move was being watched.

Don't act rashly.

"I wish I could put a sack on him, knock him unconscious and kill him like I did before." Chen Zhao felt that the anger in his heart was difficult to suppress.

He did all the dirty work Jiang Xuan ordered him to do, and over time his temper became difficult to get along with, and he could only calm down when he was with his family.

Liu Xun looked up at him in surprise, "Oh? You have this kind of experience? How come I didn't know about it?"

Chen Zhao lowered his head in embarrassment. "It happened a long time ago, not worth mentioning."

"But how should we handle this Wang Zhaowen matter? The Jingzhao Yin has been trying to smooth things over. It's clear he's being manipulated by someone to make the Chen family look bad."

"We can't just let him bully us all the time?"

If you stand too low, you will be bullied, but if you stand too high, you have to be careful everywhere, otherwise you will be plotted against one day and you won’t know how your whole family will die. He has seen many such things in Beijing in recent years.

Although the family seems to be getting more and more adept, they are actually under a lot of pressure. Even Qu Fei is now very sensible in doing things.

"Bullying? Who bullied you?" Chen Xuyan appeared beside them with a bowl of shaved ice.

Chen Zhao looked at him in shock, "When did you come back?"

Chen Xuyan sat on the stone bench and said, "I came back with you. I'm right behind you."

"Don't worry about Wang Zhaowen. Tomorrow I will go to the palace and ask the emperor to sentence him to death. You will oversee the execution."

Liu Xun hesitated for a moment, "Will the emperor agree?"

"Of course he will agree." He saw that the shaved ice in the bowl was almost melted, so he simply poured it all into his mouth and drank it all in one gulp.

Chen Zhao looked at him with a complicated expression. "Don't act rashly, or else people will accuse you of being treacherous. As a minister, you must recognize your own status. If we ever lose the emperor's trust, we'll be plunged into an abyss from which there's no return."

"Then don't kill him?" Chen Xuyan asked back.

"This?" Chen Zhao touched his nose awkwardly.

Since he could kill Wang Zhaowen openly, he naturally would not object.

Liu Xun stretched out his hand and wanted to say something, but then felt it was a bit unnecessary and retracted his hand.
