Chapter 1394 My Son’s Kindness and Righteousness
The West won and the East lost.
The loser has to pay war reparations, or in other words, Lei Zhen’s ransom.
This amount of compensation is an astronomical figure, and it is difficult to describe its exact value in monetary terms because it involves many industries.
"Hubby, I want to go home with you to give birth to the baby."
"ah?"
"Give me all these things. I will be responsible for bearing children for you from now on. One a year, at least enough to form a football team for you."
Stephanie doesn't want to be queen anymore, she wants to have children.
Such a large amount of compensation was given to the vampires, not to herself. Instead of giving it to others, she might as well put it in her own pocket. After all, it was her own thing.
As for the title of Queen...
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it. Power and other things are just empty talk.
"The child must be born, but your attitude is wrong. I was counting on you to support me." Lei Zhen was speechless.
"hug!"
Stephanie lifted her skirt, exposing her thighs.
This action made people laugh and cry, so Brother Zhen didn't hug her, but he didn't stop hugging her.
"Baby, I need you to rule the West for me!"
"I know, that's why I was just joking, haha."
Stephanie was shaking with laughter. She was indeed joking. The position of queen was certainly more important than compensation. Having one's own power was better than anything else.
"Is it settled then?" Lei Zhen said with a smile.
"Hubby, why are you doing this?" Stephanie frowned. "For you, it's like completely abandoning your Western industry. It's a huge loss."
She was not very clear about how big Lei Zhen's industry in the West was, but she knew the value of the things he looted from the blood clan headquarters.
Now that everything is being handed over to others, it is really hard to understand.
"I've already opened up the Plateau Continent and made concessions to Western powers. What's the point of giving up this little bit of industry?" Lei Zhen hugged her and said softly, "First, I'm planning something bigger. Second, this is a sign of my love for you. I have to give you something, not just let you make one-sided sacrifices."
Everything about love is sincere and it is not about money at all.
So when he said the second half of the sentence, the relationship between the two people was completely sublimated, all the grudges disappeared without a trace, and finally turned into true love.
"Hubby, I want to smother you to death!"
"Come on, smother me to death, I like it!"
“…”
To be able to develop into true love, it must be filled with various routines and ways of playing. It is impossible to use only the missionary position. That is the job of an old couple.
Control, combining hardness and softness.
Lei Zhen has the ability to destroy Stephanie, and he must also satisfy her ambition.
The carrot and stick approach is the best way to control people at any time, in the East or the West, making them unable to leave and afraid to leave.
Finally, I completely compromised in enjoyment and chose loyalty.
…
Lei Zhen is back, safe and sound.
When he faced the clan leaders, tears welled up in his eyes and he bowed deeply to everyone to express his gratitude.
"My fellow clan leaders, thank you for everything you have done for Dongfang. You have demonstrated the meaning of protection through your actions. On behalf of Dongfang, I, Lei Zhen, express my sincere gratitude to you!"
What else can I say?
In order to save him and protect the honor of the East, families big and small emptied their family assets, reaching the point where every family was in mourning and passers-by were crying.
Nothing to say, really nothing to say!
"Thank you, thank you!"
“Thank you for everything you have done, and thank you even more…”
Lei Zhen choked up and couldn't continue speaking. It was obvious that he was very emotional.
As a last resort, Lu Xiaoqi and Xiang Zhenhai stepped forward to support him, but he pushed them away again.
"I, Lei Zhen, swear that I will avenge this!"
"All warriors deserve rewards, all deserve honor, and all deserve to be admitted to the Guardian's Hall of Heroes! All widows and orphans should be supported by us..."
After the thanks came the rewards. For this purpose, a Hall of Heroes was specially built to place the spirit tablets of all those who died in the battle in it for future generations to remember and commemorate them.
In addition, Lei Zhen took care of all the widows' lives for the rest of their lives.
For this purpose, a school was established where all descendants of heroes can study for free. In the school, they not only learn cultural knowledge, but also learn about family heritage and so on.
He rewarded each family according to their merits and promoted many of them at once.
Those who should join the Public Opinion Research Bureau join the Public Opinion Research Bureau, those who should join the Imperial Uniform Guard join the Imperial Uniform Guard, and so on. In short, nothing that should be given is lost, which is enough to show their sincerity.
Is it still useful if I only give this much?
So many families were destroyed and fell into decline. Many were even usurped and replaced by people below them.
"What? The Hu family was actually replaced by the people below?"
"How dare they! Hundreds of Hu family heroes died defending the East. How dare these people? Pass on my order, kill without mercy!"
Upon hearing this news, Lei Zhen was furious.
He immediately ordered that all those who usurped the throne be killed in order to protect the interests of the Yinglie family.
"The Pang family was exterminated in revenge?"
"Kill them all, you bastards! Kill all of these bastards who dare to challenge the heroes, leaving no one alive!"
“…”
On the one hand, it talks about protection, and on the other hand, it talks about maintenance. In a short period of time, there are only more than a hundred families left among the hundreds of families. The family alliance that once existed has come to an end at this point.
It is so weak that it cannot be any weaker. It cannot even make a wave if it wants to.
The same was true for several large families. The hardest hit was the Northeast Lu family, whose strength plummeted. Even though Lu Xiaoqi knew Lei Zhen's tactics, he had no choice but to accept it.
He knew that the ideal state for the emperor was for the big families to be balanced and the small families to be weak.
Various usurpations of the throne and various vendettas, things that should not have happened, happened frequently. Maybe the people below did not know what was going on, but Lu Xiaoqi and the others knew clearly.
His family was destroyed by a usurper seeking revenge, and Lei Zhen avenged them.
It not only made the family disappear, but also became his own reputation, and at the same time fundamentally stabilized the family situation.
As for what the remaining one hundred or so families will do and where they will end up, that will depend on time. Eventually, a large number of them will gradually disappear or die out.
New families will also rise, and the decline of one family will accelerate the demise of the old family.
This move is very ruthless!
Lei Hongwu had to give a thumbs up and admit that he was not as good as his son.
"That's cruel. Luckily the third child is a girl, otherwise you would have been thrown to death by the legs."
The old father was filled with emotion. Even though he was once the king of spies, he still felt guilty when facing his son who killed hundreds of thousands of people at will.
"Just kidding, can I really do that?" Lei Zhen smiled and said, "Dad, there's something I want to tell you, but I don't know..."
"Son, just tell me if you have anything to say." Lei Hongwu quickly expressed his opinion.
"We must seize the time to establish schools. Education is the foundation of everything."
"Son, you are really dark!"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm being righteous!"
"Yes, yes, yes. My son is kind and righteous. If it were someone else, who would care about these things..."
