chapter 521. Unify the royal family of Zhonghai

Seeing this, the heads of the Xiao family and the others also bowed to Mu Chen and said: "We pay our respects to the great commander!"

"Putong!"

Putong!

... ""

Another series of kneeling sounds rang out.

Even though Murong Wudi and the other leaders of the royal families were all much older than Mu Chen, just the word "great commander" was enough to make them pay their respects to Mu Chen.

As for the younger generation of the royal families, Murong Feng and the others, they had yet to react.

Each and every one of them was stunned.

"Feng'er, what are you still standing there for?" Murong Wudi immediately scolded, "Hurry up and greet the commander!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Murong Feng immediately came back to his senses. He also knelt down in front of Mu Chen and said, "Murong Feng, greetings to the chief commander!"

"Great General!" Murong Wudi said sincerely, "The princes of Zhonghai, led by Murong Feng, are notorious for offending you. They deserve to die ten thousand times over!"

"You only cut off two of his arms and left him with his dog life. That is already a great favor!"

"We offended you again tonight. We know that we have committed a great crime and we cannot escape death. Before we die, I only have one small request."

"You still have a request?" The corner of Mu Chen's mouth rose slightly, "Speak!"

"I only hope that the chief commander will show mercy again and let the Mu Rong family continue their bloodline." Mu Rong Wudi gave Mu Chen three kowtows in a row, "I will not refuse it even if it means death!"

"I beg the commander to show mercy again, we will not give up until we die!"

The patriarch of the Xiao family and the others also agreed.

After all, they also wanted to leave behind a bloodline for their family.

"I originally planned to kill the few of you. However, since your attitudes are so sincere, I changed my mind. I won't kill your grandsons, let your family continue their incense offerings, and at the same time, I won't kill you bunch of old fellows!"

Mu Chen nodded slightly and said, "However, if you cause such a commotion, it would not make sense for me to not punish you all!"

Murong Wudi immediately expressed his stance, "No matter what kind of punishment it is, I will accept it willingly!"

"Don't say it so seriously." Mu Chen smiled and said, "You old bones, I guess physical punishment won't be able to take it. " So I have decided! "

"From today onwards, all of you from the royal family of Shenhai Island will be under my leadership. Do you have any objections?"

Murong Wudi and the others looked at each other and nodded. "We are willing to follow the Great General and pledge our loyalty to the Great General. We are willing to listen to the orders of the Great General!"

Becoming the commander's subordinate was a great honor for the royal family of Zhonghai.

"Of course, submitting to me is not that simple." Mu Chen continued, "You must show your sincerity. For example, you must hand over half of your income every year as the military expense of the Great Xia Army."

These Zhonghai royal families were extremely money-sucking.

Murong Wudi's family alone could earn more than 100 billion annually. However, because of their high status, they did not pay much tax, and the Central City Government did not dare to ask about it.

If these Zhonghai royal families took out half of their income, as Great Xia's military expenditure, it would greatly increase the living standards of the soldiers and the overall combat level of the army.

"Yes, we are willing!" Murong Wudi did not even think about it and directly said, "Not to mention half of our income, even if you take away our family property, we will give it to you with both hands!"

To Murong Wudi and the others, it was a great gift for them to be able to keep their lives after offending the commander.

Besides, they could also become the commander's subordinates.

In the eyes of Murong Wudi and the others, a hundred billion worth of assets was nothing.

On the other hand, Sun Zhengyu had a bitter smile on his face.

Originally, Murong Wudi and the others had wanted to get closer to him. Now that Mu Chen had subdued them, he would have more dealings with them in the future.

It had taken him fifty years to unify the entire royal family of Zhonghai.

He didn't expect that before Mu Chen arrived in Shenhai Island, he would unify them in just one night.

"Right!" Mu Chen looked at Murong Wudi and the others and suddenly thought of a problem, "It's said that the Chu Family is also a royal family in Zhonghai. Why didn't you see the head of the Chu Family?"

Logically speaking, the head of the Chu Family should have followed Murong Wudi's order.

However, Mu Chen did not see Chu Renxiong.

"Reporting to the chief commander, we did not inform the Chu Family about our arrival." Murong Wudi quickly explained, "Commander, do you think we should..."

Murong Wudi tried to figure out what Mu Chen was thinking.

"No need!" Mu Chen waved his hand and said, "I'm just asking."

"As for the Chu Family, we don't need to worry about them for now. He can do whatever he wants!"

"Yes, Great General!" Murong Wudi immediately understood.

After all, he was an old fox who had lived for a hundred years. From Mu Chen's words, Murong Wudi could guess that Mu Chen and the Chu family had some conflicts.

Murong Wudi's reply was equivalent to leaving the Chu family alone.

One should know that in the entire royal family of Zhonghai, only Murong Wudi had the right to obey.

"It's late at night, we won't disturb the Grand Commander-in-Chief's rest!" Murong Wudi said.

"Alright." Mu Chen nodded and said, "It's been a long night. You old guys must be tired. All of you should go back to Zhonghai."

Therefore, Murong Wudi and the others quickly retreated.

When Murong Wudi and the others returned to Shenhai Island, Chu Zhi Ming was rushing towards the provincial capital.

The more Chu Zhi Ming thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Although he didn't know what was going on with Xiao Wu Yue and Murong Feng, Chu Zhi Ming had a feeling that something big was going to happen.

However, he didn't know anything about the Crown Prince and the others. That would be terrible.

Naturally, he ran into Murong Wudi and the others.

"Head of the Mu Rong family?"

He saw that Murong Wudi had really come to the provincial capital personally. Chu Zhi Ming was incomparably shocked, "You really came to the provincial capital?"

"Chu family's brat?" After seeing Chu Zhi Ming, the Xiao family's patriarch and the others felt a sense of alienation.

After all, no one wanted to stand on the opposite side of Mu Chen.1

Chu Zhi Ming also clearly felt that the atmosphere was very strange.

In any case, the Chu Family was ranked in the top ten of the royal family in Zhonghai. When these family heads saw Chu Zhi Ming in the past, they were all very kind, but now, Chu Zhi Ming felt an inexplicable coldness.

He faintly felt that these family heads seemed to be deliberately distancing themselves from him.

"Chu Family kid, why did you come to the provincial capital?" Murong Wudi sat in the car and glanced at Chu Zhi Ming. He was clearly a bit impatient.

If not for Mu Chen's reminder, Murong Wudi would have even wanted to destroy the Chu family right now.

"Patriarch Murong, my Patriarch is worried that something big will happen. "Master Murong, my master is worried that something big will happen, so he sent me here to see what's going on!" Chu Zhi Ming replied.

"That's right, something did indeed happen." At this time, Murong Feng walked over and said: "Moreover, something big happened!"

"Xiao Wuyue has been castrated into a eunuch!"

"The other members of the Crown Prince's Party all had one of their legs broken!"

"And me, two of my arms were cut off!"
