From prince to god

Chapter 370 Three punishments;

Thinking of this, Ling Zhou couldn't help thinking about it.Could it be that my father wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to abolish the preferential policies for the aborigines?

Or, do you want to use this incident to let those aboriginal residents recognize themselves?

Let them recognize who is Lan Ling's master?
In fact, think about it, it is possible.

Those favorable policies for the aborigines may not cause problems in the short term.

Even if you wait another 100 years, there will be no problem.

But if it goes on for a long time, I am afraid it will not be good.

This is like educating a child in a family. If you keep whipping him, maybe he will be obedient and motivated.But if you get used to it for a long time, you will inevitably have a rebellious mentality.

There is even the possibility of the opposite, the possibility of hitting the parents.

How many unfilial sons, even the rebellious sons who beat the elderly, didn't they come from childhood?
Thinking about it, he stretched his waist and stopped thinking about it.

Forget it, if it's really like what I think, and clean up some scourges, that's fine.

He will not stand up for the aborigines.

Although Lanling founded the country, the aboriginal residents contributed a lot.

Soon, the car drove into a road, and at the end of the road was a huge luxury building complex.

This complex of buildings is probably second only to the royal palace in terms of scale.

Here is the Xia Family Mansion.

At this time, the square in front of the Xia family's mansion was already full of people. At a glance, there were a total of 300 people, all of whom were from the Xia family.

The Xia family was a big family before Lanling founded the country.Later, following the royal family all the way, the family that has developed for a hundred years has so many members.

Those who attended the family meeting yesterday were all immediate family members and a small number of important collateral members.The ones gathered here this time are the direct and collateral families of the Xia family.

As far as this is concerned, only those with status are qualified to appear here.

Some Xia family children with low status are not qualified to come here at all.

As the convoy approached, Lanling's unique welcome song sounded.

Under the leadership of Xia Lianbo, all members of the Xia family greeted him in an orderly manner.

The convoy stopped and the butler opened the door.

Brother Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin walked out of the car gracefully with warm smiles on their faces.

"His Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, welcome to your arrival."

Xia Lianbo led a group of Xia's family members, bowed and bowed respectfully, saluting and saying hello.

"Patriarch Xia, please get up."

Ling Zhou stretched out his hand gracefully and said.

Today everything is centered on Ling Zhou.

Only then did the members of the Xia family straighten up.

Later, at Xia Lianbo's invitation, Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin walked into the Xia family mansion.

It has to be said that the Xia family is indeed a big family that has been passed down for a hundred years, and the mansion reveals luxury everywhere.It can be said that the level of luxury is second only to the palace in Lanling.

Of course, unless the Xia family had the heart to rebel, they would not dare to build their own house like the palace.

This point, the Xia family handled it very well.

"This time, the princess and I came here to be guests. At the same time, it is also for yesterday..."

In a huge hall of the Xia family, Ling Zhou stood in front, looked at the hundreds of Xia family members, and said a lot of polite words.

There are appeasement and beating in these words.

Of course, these words are not what Ling Zhou said, but the manuscripts driven out by the royal think tank, which were read out by Ling Zhou in this way.

For Ling Zhou, this was not difficult at all.With his memory, the manuscript has already been printed in his mind.

But no matter what Ling Zhou said, the 300 or so members of the Xia family, whether it was Xia Lianbo who had lived for more than 70 years, or some juniors of the Xia family, were like children, bowing their heads and pretending to listen carefully.

Moreover, every time Ling Zhou's voice changed, the expression of everyone in the Xia family also changed accordingly.

The atmosphere in the hall was completely controlled by Ling Zhou.

"Although what happened to the Xia family was done by the third wife of the Xia family. The royal family has a generous heart and will not implicate the entire Xia family. But capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped."

Ling Zhou looked at everyone in the Xia family and said calmly.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in the Xia family changed.

Sure enough, it is not so easy to pass the test, the royal family still punishes the Xia family.

Just, what will the punishment be?
Many Xia family members were in a state of anxiety, for fear that the punishment of the royal family would affect themselves.

"Punishment: The Xia family donates one-half of the total assets to fund our country's charities, subsidize the government, and build the six major districts."

Ling Zhou said in a low voice.

Although the six major districts of Lanling are already a modern city, many places still need to be built, which requires money.

One-half of the property?
This is going to hurt the Xia family!

"Yes."

When everyone in the Xia family was surprised, Xia Lianbo, the old man of the Xia family, agreed without hesitation.

Compared with family inheritance, what is the loss of half of the family property?
If the prince came over and only comforted the Xia family, and then easily let the Xia family go, then he would not be able to feel at ease.

That way he would feel that the royal family hadn't dealt with it yet, and had to wait for the queen to settle the score.

This is not being mean.

This is reality.

"Well! Within one week of the Xia family's limit, calculate the total value of the Xia family's property. It is up to the Xia family to decide whether to donate cash or donate to the company for auction."

Ling Zhou said in a low voice.

"The Xia family is willing to contribute funds to our country's charity and urban construction in our country."

Xia Lianbo said without hesitation.

The golden egg is lost, as long as the chicken that lays the golden egg is still there, there will be a chance to earn back the lost golden egg in the future.

But if the company is lost, it will be a real blow to the Xia family.

Of course, paying such a big price all at once, paying half of the total assets, and it was still funds, was not a small amount for the Xia family, and it was enough to hurt the bones.

But as long as the company is still there, as long as there is no major crisis, there is still a chance to recover.

Ling Zhou nodded, and said: "Afterwards, the royal family will send a financial team to assist the Xia family in statistics."

"Yes."

Xia Lianbo responded.

He knew that this financial team, to put it bluntly, was here to monitor their Xia family.

But it doesn't matter anymore, he has reached this point, and he is no longer in the mood to cheat.

Otherwise, if it is found out, it will really be over.

"Also, punishment: The Xia family writes a confession letter, signed by all members of the Xia family, and hangs it outside the gate of the Xia family as a warning. The deadline is three years, and it can be removed after three years, and hung in the Xia family's ancestral temple to warn future generations."

Ling Zhou said the second punishment.

As soon as the second punishment came out, there was another bang on the scene.

This second punishment is not weak at all compared to the first one.

The confession book has been hung outside the gate of the Xia family for three years. It can be said that in the next three years, any guests who come and go to the Xia family can see this confession book. It is an absolute shame for the Xia family!
"Yes."

Xia Lianbo responded.

It's just that it was much more difficult for him to answer this time.

But there is no way, the Xia family is weak and can only cope.

"Third, punish..."

As he spoke, Ling Zhou glanced around at everyone in the Xia family.At this moment, the members of the Xia family were in various states, some were sad, some were unyielding, and some seemed relieved.

"Third, penalty: From now on, within three years, all direct members of the Xia family are not allowed to go abroad. Those who violate the order will be dealt with by the sanctioners of [Zilan Second Team]."

Ling Zhou's face turned serious, and he said indifferently.

Following his words, six young men and women dressed in black walked out from the side of the hall at some unknown time.

He looked indifferent, looking at everyone in the Xia family as if looking at a dead person.

Many timid people in the Xia family couldn't help but tremble.

The gazes of these six people were too terrifying.

Is this the legendary giant nemesis [Punisher]?

"Yes."

Xia Lianbo replied again.

This time, he was relieved.

If you can't go abroad, you can't go abroad.

As for the six sanctioners, they couldn't scare him.

After all, he is an old guy who has been around for a lifetime, and he has come through the most difficult time in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.At that time, the Xia family was still very small.

It can be said that the Xia family has developed and grown under his hands.

Before the founding of Lanling, the Xia family was also a rich family, but at most they were considered landowners.Back then, the main island of Lanling was sparsely populated, with only a few fishing villages and tens of thousands of people living there.

The Xia family's ability to become a world-class family today is naturally inseparable from the support of Lan Ling Jianguo and the royal family.

"Okay, let's stop here about the third house of the Xia family. Also: Children under the age of 15 and over 6 years old in the Xia family can enter the 'royal training camp', and the royal family will train them for three years."

Ling Zhou finally said.

When he said this, there was another commotion at the scene.

But different from before, everyone in the Xia family at this time had a strong look of joy on their faces.

The royal training camp is a special institution of Lanling Kingdom.

Only those who can enter the 'royal training camp' will be able to enter the power center of the kingdom in the future.

Many high-level officials in the Lanling Kingdom today have been in the royal training camp when they were children.But it is not easy for one's own child to enter the royal training camp.

In the century since the founding of Lan Ling, no more than 60 people have entered the royal training camp.

"Yes, thank you for your generosity, the Xia family is willing to follow in the footsteps of the royal family forever."

Xia Lianbo saluted again.

The other Xia family also saluted.

Ling Zhou smiled, exchanged glances with his sister, and then left the hall under the bow of about 300 members of the Xia family.

Leaving the hall, Ling Zhou looked at the Xia family mansion, and said with a smile: "Sister, this is a big deal, can you give me some sweetness?"

Ling Lanxin smiled, turned her head to look at the hall, and said: "The Xia family cannot do without Lan Ling, even if we whip them at will and don't give them any sweets, they still have to stay in Lan Ling honestly. The reason why Giving them sweets is just to make the Xia family work harder for the development of the kingdom."

Ling Zhou nodded, he naturally understood these principles.

Any family power that wants to collide with the state machine is courting death.

Although the Lanling Kingdom is not a big country, its land area including territorial waters is only 12 square kilometers, and its population so far is only about 300 million.

But even so, no family can collide with it.

Ling Zhou nodded, stretched his waist, looked around, and said with a smile: "The environment here is pretty good."

"Your Highness, if you like, you can stay longer."

At this time, Xia Tian walked over holding a little girl's hand.

Ling Zhou turned his head to look at the other party, and smiled, "That's not necessary, let's wait for a chance later."

"His Royal Highness is always welcome."

Xia Tian laughed.

Afterwards, Xia Tian took Ling Zhou, Ling Lanxin and a group of people to stroll around the Xia family compound.

On the way, Xia Tian hesitated and said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, there is one thing that I don't know whether I should mention it or not."

"Well! Tell me."

Ling Zhou said while admiring the surrounding scenery.

"That's right, it's about an uncle of mine."

Xia Tian hesitated and said.

"You're talking about Xia Jiang, right? He has other arrangements, so the Xia family doesn't care about it."

Ling Zhou said.

The royal family sanctioned the third house of the Xia family, would there be any omissions?

Not to mention a direct descendant of the third family of the Xia family in the United States, even some illegitimate children were dug out and sent to [Purple Orchid Team [-]] for investigation and sanctions.

"Ok."

Hearing what Ling Zhou said, Xia Tian had no choice but to nod, not daring to make any more demands.

"Princess, can I participate in the royal training camp?"

On the side, the little girl who came with Xia Tian pulled Ling Lanxin's sleeve and asked in a low voice.She is Xia Li, Xia Li's cousin.

"Naturally."

Ling Lan smiled heartily.

"Then Xiaoliang and Xiaoyue can do it too?"

Xia Li asked happily and expectantly.

This time, Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin were taken aback.

Who are Xiaoliang and Xiaoyue?
On the side, Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat.

He frowned and wanted to speak to stop his sister.

But after thinking about it, he suddenly stopped what he was going to say.He understood that the Xiaoyue and Xiaoliang mentioned by his cousin were referring to Lingyue and Lingliang brought back from China by Ling Lanxin and his brother.

He also wanted to see what attitude the prince and princess had towards the pair of children surnamed Ling.

I believe that even if the prince and princess don't like it, they won't care about a little girl.

"It's Lingyue and Lingliang! They said they were brought back from Huaxia by the prince and princess. They and I are still classmates."

Xia Li said as if she was childish.

Ling Zhou and his sister looked at each other, thinking of the two younger sisters brought back from Huaxia Ling's house.

On the side, Xia Tian looked at the expressions of Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin, and sighed in his heart, knowing that what his grandfather said was right, the royal family did not plan to train those younger brothers.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense."

Xia Li scolded Xia Li.

Xia Li rolled her eyeballs blankly, looking aggrieved.

Afterwards, Xia Tian quickly changed the topic.

Soon, they finished visiting the Xia family compound, returned to the front yard, chatted with Xia Lianbo and other high-ranking members of the Xia family, and then led everyone to leave the Xia family with hundreds of members of the Xia family seeing them off. .

Seeing the motorcade disappear into the street, the members of the Xia family returned to the compound.

Afterwards, Xia Lianbo ordered the whole family to start counting the family property from now on, without any falsification, and to make a property report in a realistic manner.

At the same time, he ordered to go down and make a confession book and hang it outside the gate of Xia's house.And told the Xia family not to leave Lanling within three years.

Afterwards, Xia Lianbo brought his son and grandson to a small hall.

Came to the small hall, Xia Tian reported the previous matter.

"Oh, I hope Xia Jiang's family is okay."

Xia Lianbo sighed.

"Uncle Jiang went to the United States very early. Uncle Jiang didn't know much about the third grandpa. It should be fine."

Xia Tian pondered and said.
