The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 224 Choice is greater than effort
Shen Lian was shocked when he heard the words, raised his head and shouted: "Master Hou, Shen Lian follows Lord Hou wholeheartedly, without any intention of resentment. This heart can be learned from the world. If you go against your will, you will be struck by lightning!"

Indeed, God did not make a click, and there was a burst of winter thunder.

Jiang Chuan never believed in oaths, and the oaths were used to break them from the moment they were uttered.He smiled slightly, walked up to Shen Lian and helped him up.

Shen Lian only felt as if his wrist was being grabbed by an iron hand, and he was brought up involuntarily. He couldn't help being surprised at the strength of this young Marquis's arm. He didn't expect that he looked so gentle, but he had such strength.

"Shen Lian, I called you here today, not to listen to your swear. In fact, I don't care what a person thinks in his heart. I only care about how he does it. Mr. Bai told me that you did a good job. I hope you continue Keep going and do it with your heart. It doesn't matter if you didn't know me before. Then I will tell you now. "

Jiang Chuan asked Shen Lian to sit opposite him, and watched him speak slowly and pleasantly, as if the two of them were chatting about family affairs, but there was a fine layer of sweat on Shen Lian's forehead.

"I'm actually very simple, you don't have to bother to guess. If you treat me well and work hard, I will use you and trust you. But if you don't work hard and have many selfish thoughts, then I can't stay. You. You also know that the Ming Dynasty is precarious and troubled times are approaching. Everyone is waiting and watching, looking for a big tree to sit next to. This is also human nature. Many times, choices are often more important than hard work. The sooner you die."

I, Jiang Chuan, don't hide it from you, I also want to take a bite of the fat meat of Daming Jiangshan, and I even want to swallow it all.I will give you one last chance today, you think about it carefully, think about it slowly, and let me know when you think about it.If you feel that following me is not the best choice, then tell me clearly, I will not force you, and I will let you go.If you are willing to follow me sincerely, as long as you don't die, I will give you a great fortune until the day when I rule the world, which is definitely something you have never thought about in your life.That's it, you think about it now. "

Jiang Chuan's voice was always calm, with a smile on his face, but Shen Lian felt his whole body trembling, and his thick brocade robe was already wet with sweat.

He felt that the young man in front of him who was always smiling was putting more pressure on him than the commander of Jin Yiwei, who had always been dark-faced.

He smiled wryly in his heart, this Marquis of Wu'an looked easy to talk and gave himself two choices, but Shen Lian knew that he had no choice at all.If he chooses the first one, he believes that his head will appear in front of this one before tonight.

As a thousand households of Jin Yiwei, he knows too many vicious plots, dirty and cold-blooded things, and he is used to seeing the other side of those high-ranking officials and nobles, princes and generals who don't know.

So he knows the cruelty and determination of these people better than ordinary people.

In fact, from the day he was controlled by the Black Ice Platform, he had no choice.If you want to leave, you can only be in the form of a corpse.

"Shen Lian wishes to follow Master Hou in this life, before and after death, please Master Hou to learn from you." Shen Lian knelt heavily on the ground with a plop, and said loudly with his forehead against the cold blue brick, with an expression of incomparable loyalty.

Jiang Chuan chuckled, helped Shen Lian up and said, "Don't kneel down at every turn, what I want to see is what I want to see."

"Shen Lian must do his best to be loyal to Lord Hou!" Shen Jian said hastily.

"Okay, tell me about the situation of these big guys in Datong." Jiang Chuan waved his hand, motioning him to sit down and talk.He knew that talking to a smart person like Shen Lian didn't need to be very clear, just a little mentioning would help him understand.

He also knew that if Shen Lian really naively thought that he would let him go, then he would die when he walked out of this room.

People who are too naive are not suitable for this troubled world, let alone intelligence work. Death is good for everyone.

Now, it seemed that Shen Lian did not disappoint him, and also saved his own life.

Shen Lian carefully put half of his butt on the chair, brewed and sorted out his thoughts, and then spoke in detail.

Jiang Chuan closed his eyes and didn't ask any questions, as if he was resting with his eyes closed. Shen Lian didn't dare to stop and continued talking.

As he said that, Jiang Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, which startled Shen Lian, thinking that what he said was wrong.

"You just said that half a year ago, the prefect of Datong, Mu Zuo, and the guard of Datong led a team to Heiniu Mountain to suppress the bandits, but they returned in a complete defeat?" Jiang Chuan asked slowly, tapping his fingers on the table.

Shen Lian didn't know why he would suddenly ask this, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Report to Lord Hou. There is such a thing. At that time, my subordinates reported it to me after they knew about it, and I asked the people below to investigate carefully After a while, I learned that the bandits had already won the victory, but I didn’t know how to kill a group of troops out of thin air, with strong combat power, and repelled the officers and soldiers. Later, the magistrate Muzuo didn’t say anything about it, and Datong’s garrison He was also demoted."

Hearing what Shen Lian said, Jiang Chuan suddenly laughed. He didn't expect that the team of bandit suppressing officers he met when he first crossed over was indeed led by the prefect of Datong. This matter is interesting.

"Master Hou, is there anything wrong with this matter?" Seeing Jiang Chuan's mysterious smile, Shen Lian asked cautiously.

"No, I just suddenly remembered a past event. You continue to talk." Jiang Chuan waved his hand and said lightly.

Shen Lian didn't ask any more questions, and continued to talk about all kinds of situations he knew, even telling about Li Yongnian hiding in the golden house outside and raising an outside room, Jiang Chuan was a little bit tongue-tied.

When drinking with Li Yongnian yesterday, the old boy got drunk and talked in his sleep. Obviously, he couldn't even satisfy his wife, and he even thought about setting up a private room outside.

Since it was an outside room, he obviously didn't dare to bring him into the house. It seemed that Li Yongnian was still a henpecked master.

Jiang Chuan was a little surprised at Jin Yiwei's energy as he listened.Originally thought that Jinyiwei had fallen to the ground, but I didn't expect to collect so much news, of course, it was basically aimed at the civil and military officials in Datong, ordinary people who are interested in paying attention to you.

This is also the duty of Jin Yiwei, to monitor all officials, thinking that the emperor is the eyes and ears.

It seems that Jin Yiwei will continue to use this gossip spirit in the future. This information may seem useless, but it will come in handy when the time is right.

It took Shen Lian almost half an hour to finish speaking, and he had sorted it out.If you talk about it in detail, it is estimated that you may not be able to finish it in one day.

Shen Lian also said that if Jiang Chuan is interested, he can go to the document library of the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office to check the contents in more detail.

　First update today, more updates tonight.
