Divorce her scumbag husband, marry the war king, and the hot wife gets rich through her spatial abil

In early October, a message was sent from the capital to the north: the current emperor had granted the entire Zhengyi County to the Xiao family's territory.

The Xiao family held the power of life and death over the territory under their jurisdiction, and all land taxes were determined by the Xiao family.

In other words, Zhengyi County belongs to the Xiao family, and all tax revenue is controlled by the Xiao family.

Moreover, a messenger was dispatched at breakneck speed to deliver the imperial decree. Of course, the eunuch delivering the decree did not stand; he knelt down to deliver it to Xiao Nan.

Xiao Nan sat in the chair, reached out, and the imperial edict flew into her hand. She opened it and glanced at it.

She knew this was the new emperor's attitude towards the Xiao family. He didn't dare to bestow any official title upon himself; he just wanted her to know his intentions.

She glanced at the palace eunuchs and said calmly, "Go back and tell your emperor that I accept his sentiments. Tell him to remember one thing: the Dragon Kingdom is protected by the Xiao family, and no one in the world dares to covet the Dragon Kingdom. Focus on making the country prosperous and the people strong. Only when the people are rich will the country be strong."

"Yes, the slave will leave."

Before he arrived, the emperor repeatedly instructed him not to show off in front of the mistress of the Xiao family, otherwise even if he died, the royal family would not pursue the matter.

In other words, he dared to act arrogantly and was killed by the Xiao family. Once he's dead, he's dead.

As soon as the new emperor's men left, Xiao Nan threw the imperial edict aside. Then, after thinking for a moment, she gave the steward an order.

The magistrate of Zhengyi County arrived. He carefully knelt before Xiao Nan and formally performed three bows.

Although Madam Xiao held no official position, he had to treat her with respect based on the emperor's attitude towards her. Moreover, she was the true master of Zhengyi County, and she had the right to kill him without asking any questions.

Xiao Nan glanced at the county magistrate before him and said coldly, "You're a corrupt official; you dare not embezzle big sums, but you can't keep up with the small ones."

One sentence almost scared the county magistrate to death.

"Madam Xiao, it is I, it is I."

"Alright, if you keep talking, I won't be able to resist killing you. I know everything about you."

"I, I will never dare to do it again. I will only obey your orders."

Xiao Nan pointed a finger, and a beam of black light entered his brow. "I have placed a prohibition on you. If you do not work for the benefit of the people and continue to be greedy, you will die suddenly overnight without a burial place. Your family will be thrown into a mass grave with you after your death."

These words were like a vengeful ghost emerging from the deepest abyss of hell, chilling the magistrate to the bone.

He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I dare not, I dare not. From now on, I will only obey your orders."

"Hmm, after you return, issue a decree to all the people of Zhengyi County that from today onwards, each household will only pay 10% of the grain tax to cover the expenses of your county government. I will not take a single penny from you."

"You don't want it?"

“Yes, now that this county belongs to me, I cannot let the people suffer.”

"What about the merchants?"

"Ten percent of the usual tax revenue goes to the county government. We need to recruit more yamen runners with high martial arts skills. If you allow bandits to run rampant in the county, I will exterminate your entire family."

"Yes Yes"

"get out."

"Yes Yes"

Once everyone had left, Xiao Nan called over the butler and asked, "Have there been many tourists visiting the manor lately?"

"Quite a bit."

"Normally the courtyard gate is kept closed, and no one may enter or leave unless it is an important matter."

"The orchard has been walled up and a caretaker has been hired. Tourists can buy things through them, and the money earned will be handed over to the accountant every month."

"Is he a reliable person?"

"Yes, a servant of the Mu family, just like me."

Thinking of Murong Yunpeng, Xiao Nan asked, "How is Yunpeng?"

"He's been recuperating in the capital recently; his health isn't very good."

"Why didn't they leave any descendants?"

"Yes, he had descendants, but the woman was someone he met while traveling, and he did not marry her."

"Why?"

"The woman didn't want to get married, and he didn't want to marry either. They were just lovers for one night."

"Heh, how strange,"

"I heard about this from Manager Liu. He and the master have a good relationship."

"Well, logically speaking, now that I'm back, he should come too."

"Well, I heard that the master is too embarrassed to come see you because of the late Emperor Emeritus."

"What's this?"

"The master forbade us to say that he, he is sick, and it seems that he is about to die."

"What? Why didn't you say so sooner?"

He forbade anyone to tell anyone.

Xiao Nan waved his hand, dismissing him, and immediately spread his divine sense, heading straight for the capital.

At the Murong residence, she saw him lying on the bed, looking sickly and pale, as if he were dead.

If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he wouldn't even look like a living person.

At this moment, a group of people arrived outside his mansion. They were Yunpeng's brothers and sisters, with their children, hoping to get a share of his wealth before he died.

Meanwhile, a boy of about sixteen or seventeen in the mansion was leading a group of people who were staring at these people.

This little boy must be Yunpeng's child. She looked closely and realized he really was his son.

Yes, that's good. Otherwise, he would truly be childless.

She originally wanted to teach these people a lesson, but then she remembered that the mysterious hammer hadn't appeared for a long time, so she communicated with Longlong. It suddenly flew out and appeared above the group of people's heads in just a few breaths.

This hammer was enormous, like a mountain, so heavy it was hard to breathe.

Its appearance caused a dramatic change in the faces of the people in the capital. Some were happy, and some were afraid. Those who were happy were kind-hearted, while those who were afraid were guilty.

When the Murong family members saw the hammer, their legs went weak, and they crawled away as fast as they could.

Longlong didn't let them go just because they left. Instead, he smashed the leader of the troublemakers to pieces.

The capital had been peaceful for over a decade, but without the deterrent power of the mysterious hammer, it seemed that some thugs and hooligans had reappeared on the streets.

They heard the news and all hid.

At this moment, Longlong's voice came out, cold, sinister, and bloodthirsty, making people's whole body tremble.

"This hammer is back, huh? If you want to try what it's like to slap some mud, then keep jumping around."

After intimidating the people of the capital, Longlong disappeared instantly.

The servants and young master of the Murong family were too shocked to utter a sound. Only some of the older people, after recovering from their shock, quickly closed the door, pulled the young master aside, and explained the secrets of the divine hammer to him.

At this moment, Xiao Nan had already appeared beside Yun Peng's bed.

She was treating Yunpeng's illness, and by the time little Yunpeng came to see his father, Yunpeng's complexion had returned to a rosy hue.

He opened his eyes and his eyes immediately welled up with tears when he saw Xiao Nan.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."

“Why don’t you come to me when you have something to do? He is him, and you are you. You can’t forget your sister-in-law just because of him.”

"You still recognize me?"

"Of course, the friendship between us is something that Meng Fei cannot stop."

"Thank you for your pregnancy, sister-in-law."

"What a joke! I often work within my own sect, and I'm even counting on you to secretly help my good-for-nothing children from the Xiao family."

"Look at what you're saying, they're much more successful than me."

"They're no match for cunning."

“Sister-in-law, you have saved my life several times. The affairs of the Xiao family are my affairs.”

"Yes, I have already taken care of your health. You can live for another hundred years or so without any problem. Now that you have a successor, you should train him well."

"You know everything?"

"Yes, I only heard about such a big thing from the housekeeper."

"He, he's such a chatterbox."

"If you don't speak up, you'll lose your life."

"hey-hey."

"Take good care of your health and raise your child well. If you have time, come to my place for a recuperation period. Your son is coming soon. I'm leaving now."

"Sister-in-law, it's me!"

"Don't mention it, there's plenty of time in the future. I'm off."

Xiao Nan disappeared in a flash. At this moment, Xiao Yunpeng also pushed the door open and came in. When he saw his father looking at him, he rushed over.

"Father, you're awake! You're finally awake!"

Yunpeng reached out and patted his little head: "It was your aunt who saved your father. You must remember that."

"Which auntie? I haven't seen her."
