Peerless Xuantian Record

Chapter 626
It is true that Yan Song was able to achieve the position of chief assistant. He said with an aggrieved face: "Your Majesty, there is actually some quarrel between Shen Lian and my son. And today's incident may also be related to yesterday's incident at the market restaurant. related..."

Shizong became interested as soon as he heard it: "Oh? Let's hear it."

Yan Song said: "Yesterday my son and some family members went to the market for a stroll, but I didn't want to see Shen Lian molesting a singing girl in a restaurant. raving......"

Shizong said with anger on his face: "This Shen Lian actually molested women in broad daylight, saying, what did he say at that time? I want to hear how crazy his words are."

Yan Song said: "At that time Shen Lian said, 'Yan Shifan, don't think that your Yan family can take care of everything with the support of the emperor. Others are afraid of you, and I, Shen Lian, don't take it seriously.'"

"Presumptuous..." Sejong was already furious, and he said angrily.

Seeing this, Yan Song laughed inwardly, but he continued without showing any signs of expression: "At that time my son said: 'Shen Lian, as an official of the imperial court, you did such a vile thing in broad daylight, you really disgraced the imperial court. Ashamed of the emperor's grace, aren't you afraid that I will report this matter to the emperor?...' But who would have thought that after hearing this, Shen Lian would say even more outrageous things, ministers, ministers dare not say..."

Shizong said gloomyly: "Speak, I would like to hear what outrageous things Shen Lian can say."

Yan Song said: "He, he said that the emperor now only knows how to ask immortals to ask, he doesn't even care about the affairs of the court, so how can he have time to take care of his affairs..."

"Crack..." Sejong threw the teacup in his hand to the ground and roared, "Boldly sinking the chain, you are so rebellious, how can you stand up if I don't kill you?"

Yan Song said loudly: "The emperor calms down, it's not worth being so angry about this person."

Sejong looked at Yan Song and said kindly: "Aiqing, I misunderstood the slander earlier, and my tone was a bit harsh, don't take it to heart..." Then he got up and left the dragon chair, and helped Yan Song, who was kneeling on the ground, up .

Yan Song said with tears in his eyes: "It doesn't matter if the old minister suffers some grievances, the emperor will be satisfied if he understands the loyalty of the old minister."

Shizong sighed: "It would be great if all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were as loyal to the emperor and patriotic as Aiqing..."

Yan Song said: "Your Majesty, how do you think about Shen Lian?"

Shizong said: "Shen Lian's words are not disrespectful to me, if I don't punish him, how can I convince the public?"

Yan Song said: "Yes, Your Majesty, kill him as an example..."

"Kill him..." Sejong fell into deep thought, before raising his head for a while and said: "Shen Lian has been in Jinyiwei for many years and has helped Lu Bing do a lot of things. For Lu Bing's sake, the death penalty can be avoided. But the crime of living is hard to forgive, so I will punish him with a hundred sticks and send him to live outside the Yongguan Pass."

Although Yan Song really wanted to use this to kill Shen Lian, but because Shizong said so, he didn't say any more, and cupped his hands and said: "The emperor is wise..."

Immediately, Shizong drew up an imperial decree to punish Shen Lian. . . . . .

On the day when Shen Lian left the capital, Lu Bing came to the gate of the city early to see him off. Seeing Shen Lian who had not healed from the rod punishment, Lu Bing couldn't help but shed two lines of tears, and said sadly: "Brother, why are you bothering?" Woolen cloth?"

Shen Lian held his head up and said in a clear voice: "It is the law of heaven to sweep out the traitors..."

Lu Bing sighed, shook his head slightly, and said, "Brother, it's a long way to go. I've already taken care of the escorts for you, and they won't make things difficult for you."

Shen Lian clasped his fists gratefully and said: "My lord, Shen Lian will keep your kindness towards Shen Lian in mind, take care..."

"Take care..." Looking at the back of Shen Lian turning away, Lu Bing murmured: "Brother, I'm not as good as you..."

At this time, Shen Lian's ears echoed Yue Wanying's words back then: "Your personality is not suitable for rolling around in the officialdom, and it is entirely by luck that you can get to where you are today. Good luck..."
