Shen Mo introduced Wu Qiang into the mansion, and he didn't have time to sit down. Wu Qiang took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is what our Qianhu wrote to adults. ”

One look at the cover. It was to let himself open it personally, silently suppressed the panic in his heart, tore open the cover and looked at it, his face turned pale, and he stumbled and said: "Teacher, it's all in vain!" ”

What was on that letter that could make Shen Mo so frightened? It's all because of what was said above, his teacher Shen Lian is in danger!

said Mr. Qingxia Shen Lian. Because of the experience of Jinyiwei, he saw the Yan father and son running rampant, making the court shoot wolves, and the sky was angry and resentful. He is also a jealous and hateful character, although he knows that he is invincible. But he also has to learn from Zhang Zifang Bolang to beat the first emperor, although it is futile, but it is also good to set an example with everyone. With hatred, the above table prepared the ten major crimes of Yan Song's father and son in recruiting power and accepting bribes, being extremely vicious, and bullying the king and misleading the country, and begged to thank the world.

At that time, the strict party was in full swing. The time is not yet ripe for the reversal of strictness, and Shen Lian willingly wrote the book, which is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and the result is that the holy decree came down. reprimanded him for slandering the minister, selling his reputation and reputation, wearing brocade clothes and beating him a hundred, and sending it out to the people outside the country. Fortunately, with Lu Bing's care, a hundred sticks came down, and it didn't hurt the muscles and bones, but no matter how powerful Lu Bing was, he couldn't change the holy decree, and Shen Lian was still canceled from his hometown, except for Shen Xiang, who was far away in Shaoxing. The whole family was sent to Xuanfu for the people.

Naxuan was one of the nine sides against the Mongols, because it was harassed for many years. The eyes are full of sores and diseases, and the people are vicious, which is very different from the prosperous Beijing and the picturesque Jiangnan. At that time, it was rainy for days, the sky was dark, Mrs. Shen was pregnant again, the family of four had no relatives, nowhere to stay, wanted to rent a private house to live, and there was no acquaintance guidance, I didn't know where to settle down, I was at a loss, and I was a wolf.

It's on the go. I saw a person wearing a straight shirt, stepping on a pair of rain boots, and holding an umbrella. After seeing Shen Lian for a moment, he said loudly: "The official is surnamed Shen?" From Beijing? ”

Shen Lian took a look at his temperament. Suddenly feeling quite familiar, he couldn't help but whisper: "I'm Shen Lian, you are."

The man was surprised: "The old man and the villain, Jinyi, Wei Xuan, the great thousand households are Yongkang." This is not the place to speak, and the Han family is not far from here. Please take shelter from the rain and make plans again. "Shen Lian didn't want to have anything to do with Jinyi Wei anymore. But Nian Yongkang was very attentive and only obeyed. After walking a short way, I arrived at Nian Yongkang's residence. He bowed to the middle hall, bowed his head, and said, "Meet the boss." ”

Shen Lian hurriedly helped him up and said, "I'm just a grass farmer, don't kill me with a thousand yields a year." ”

Nian Yongkang said with admiration: "The boss is not afraid of power, and he risked his life to impeach the thief. It is a loyal minister and righteous man in the world, and the name has long spread among the brothers, and it is really a blessing to see it today! Then he bowed down again.

Shen Lian helped him up again and again. He taught his two sons to return the gift to Nian Yongkang for himself. Nian Yongkang also asked his wife to welcome Mrs. Shen to the inner house to settle down, slaughter pigs to buy wine, and entertain Shen Lian's family.

Shen Lian actually didn't want to live in his house, although he was forced to commit to Jinyiwei at the beginning, but as a scholar, he had an instinctive dislike for the factory guard, and now he finally had to escape from the cage, and he really didn't want to have anything to do with these people anymore. But this year, Yongkang's enthusiasm was difficult, and he didn't know how to lift it again, so he had to make do with it.

Early the next morning, he got up and went out, Nian Yongkang wanted to accompany him, but he politely refused, and only took his second son Shen Xiang out. The two of them wandered around the streets and alleys of Xuanfu, asking around if there was a house to rent. Who knew that there was a house, but the rent was frighteningly expensive, even more expensive than in Beijing.

At noon, the two of them ate a bowl of whistle noodles outside, and when they checked out, they were startled again, and asked them for thirty yuan. Shen Lian was in a hurry at that time, but he was not familiar with the place, so he had to pay according to the order, but he really couldn't figure it out. Why is everything so frighteningly expensive in this remote Xuanfu?

The two of them turned for a day. touched his nose and had to go back to Nian Yongkang's house, Nian Yongkang was still hospitable, which made Shen Lian quite embarrassed, and he was not so resistant to him. After eating and serving tea, Nian Yongkang asked, "What is the boss doing when he goes out today?" ”

Shen Lian sighed and said: "I want to find a house, settle the old man who wants to think that the rent of your place is extremely high, much more expensive than the house I rented in Beijing." Paused again: "And the price is also high, I really don't know why?" He actually has money on him, and what Shen Mo gave at the beginning has not been spent, and Lu Bing has a rich Cheng Yi to offer. But considering that his sons will study in the future, and he has no money, he still has to live a careful life.

"The old man doesn't know." He asked the right person, Nian Yongkang said with a smile: "Xuanda is the place where our Ming Dynasty and the Mongolians meet, those Mongolians continue to use my Ming Dynasty's salt, iron, tea cloth, and all livelihood supplies, and the horses, cattle, sheep and donkeys they raise are also urgently needed by the Ming Dynasty." Although the official mutual market is open from time to time, the private private trade has never stopped for a moment, and countless Shanxi businessmen have flocked to Xuanda, opened businesses here, bought and sold, and made a fortune! Said a little proudly: "Don't look at the dilapidated city of Xuanfu, but compared to wealth, I'm afraid that even Suzhou and Hangzhou dare not say that they are rich in the world." ”

"I really can't see it." Shen Lian said in amazement: "With so many rich people living here, the pity must be rising." ”

At this time, Nian Yongkang said: Xiao Ke has other places to go, if the boss doesn't dislike this

Shen Lian excused himself again and again: "Isn't this a dove occupying a magpie's nest?" It's not a gentleman's doing. He also said: "Don't be afraid of the jokes of thousands of households, the rice here is too expensive, and the empty land will fall into the mountains." I think I'd better go live in the country. In fact, he listened to what Nian Yongkang said, and felt that the copper smell here was too heavy, and he was afraid that his two sons would "go astray", so he didn't want to live in Xuanfu.

Nian Yongkang persuaded for a while, but when he couldn't persuade him, he had to say: "That's it, this is forty miles to the southeast, it is Baoan Prefecture, and it is also the territory of Xuanfu. It's a good place to go at a very different border, and there is no trade, so the price is much cheaper. ”

Shen Lian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then work hard for thousands of households, find a place to live on behalf of the old man, you can hide yourself, and you can't be extravagant." Afraid that he would mistakenly think that he was stingy, he paused and said: "The rent price is based on respect." "The smell of the reader is vividly displayed.

Nian Yongkang intended to stay with him for a few more days, but he didn't hear from him for several days, just a banquet to entertain. Shen Lian saw that his two sons took the opportunity to play and slack off, and their studies were delayed, so he was so anxious that he urged again and again, and Nian Yongkang finally couldn't stand it, so he told him that he had found a house.

Shen Lian was about to move, and Nian Yongkang was reluctant to say: "Little Kemu is an old man, and I wish to be taught by you every day." You can't stay for another two days? ”

These days, he is warm and generous, and he has long been moved by Shen Lian, and he no longer holds the original prejudice, so he smiled and said: "Less than forty or fifty miles, let's get married, and we can move around often in the future." Nian Yongkang was overjoyed when he heard this, and kowtowed to Lao Shen happily, and then hurriedly paid for the next person to prepare the car, and wanted to personally send Shen Lian's family to Baoanzhou.

After the luggage is loaded. Shen Lian counted it. found that there were two more cars, and when he was surprised, Nian Yongkang said: "The boss left Beijing in a hurry, and he must not have prepared all his household belongings, these are all pots and pans, and the household goods that are often on fire can be purchased in the same way." Seeing him so considerate, Shen Lian felt warm in his heart. Shen Lian's family came to Baoan Prefecture under the escort of Nian Qianhu, and sure enough, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, much more refreshing and beautiful than that of Naxuan Mansion. Shen Lian liked it at first sight. Nian Yongkang led him into the city and entered a house with convenient transportation, although it was not too big, but it was very exquisite. There is also some Jiangnan charm, and even Mrs. Shen, who is from everyone's background, is very satisfied.

Shen Lian asked Nian Yongkang how much the rent was, Nian Yongji only said that it was borrowed by a friend, and he didn't want money, Shen Lian insisted on giving him fifty taels of silver, which was two years' rent, if he didn't collect it. didn't let him come to the door, and Nian Yongkang had to accept it.

Shen Lian's family lived here, and every day, they wrote, urged Shen Xiang and Shen Bao to study hard, and drank a little wine with Nian Yongkang from time to time. Mrs. Shen meditated on the baby. It seems that you want to live peacefully.

But in such a small place, there is not much population movement, and I saw a family suddenly move in. They were all curious to inquire about its origin, and finally found out that it was Shen Cheng, who impeached Yan Lao Thief, and Shen Gong deprecated it here! The villagers and gentry felt a sense of honor, and when he admired it very much, they all rushed to come to visit. There are those who send rice and firewood to help each other's lives, and there are also those who bring wine and delicacies to invite Shen Gong to eat, and there are even many people who come to say goodbye, of course, not to Shen Lian, but his two sons of Fang Shaoai.

Seeing that there were so many people supporting him, Shen Lian quickly forgot his sorrows, mingled with his neighbors, and opened a school. The children of the professor security guards, no matter how thin or thick they are, treat them equally, which makes the villagers admire; The more next year. The security guard sent a lot of water, he scattered all the wealth, set up a porridge factory to relieve the people, and led the strong men to dredge the river and build water conservancy; In the late autumn, there was Altan Khan's routine plunder, Zhizhou was afraid, he led the virtuous and righteous to defend the city, the Mongols saw that the city head was heavily guarded, and the defenders were like rainbows, and they were unwilling to attack, so they took a detour, and Baoan Prefecture was safe and sound.

Since then, Shen Gong's prestige has been great, even far beyond the security of Zhizhou, and even there are entangled lawsuits between the neighbors, not looking for Zhizhou but looking for him to make a decision, and there are big families from near and far who have come to see each other, and also ordered his children to worship him as disciples. For a time, the name of Shen Gong was like thunder in Xuanfu, and even the Mongolians knew that Shen Gong was a sage.

However, Shen Lian was not happy, because the Ming Dynasty was always under the control of the Yan Party, and there were no happy ten miles of rivers and mountains, and there were minions of the Yan Party wreaking havoc everywhere, and Xuanfu Datong was no exception. He was proficient in only two things in his life, namely flattery and embezzlement. As for leading troops to fight, attacking cities and plundering land? I'm sorry, but I don't owe it. This bastard governor is as timid as a mouse, and he does not dare to strike a shot when the captives come; Internally, he is emboldened, conniving at his minions to kill the people and ordinary soldiers, anyway, as long as the bribes are in place, the elder of the small pavilion will protect him.

Shen Lian saw that the traitorous ministers were in charge and Li Min was hanging, and he hated Yan Song and his henchmen to the core, but he had no choice but to use wine to drown his sorrows, and he couldn't help but scold Yan Thief at one time. The partial-life people suffered deeply from the strict party, and when they saw him quoting scriptures and classics, they scolded and scolded him, but they felt drenched and happy, and they were extremely enjoyable, and they applauded and agreed! There are also those who dare not speak, and everyone scolds him for being disloyal and unjust, no different from the strict party.

Shen Lian scolded happily, and he was used to it in the future, if he didn't scold Yan Dang every day, he wouldn't be able to eat and sleep well, and he wouldn't be able to live this day. scolded Yan Song bluntly and hoarsely, cai

Gradually, he became unscrupulous, he taught his disciples to shoot arrows, but instead of using ordinary targets, he tied three straw men with his own hands. Wrapped in cloth, one wrote "Tang traitor Li Linfu", one wrote "Song traitor Qin Xuan" and the other wrote "Ming traitor Xiang Song" and then placed it in the distance, if the disciple shot Li Linfu, he scolded loudly: "Li thief look at the arrow!" , the same is true for Qin thieves and strict thieves. The northerners are straight, they just feel that they are having a good time, and they don't know that all this has long been known, and they report to Yang Shun that Yang Shun knows that Yang Shun hates him and wants to find a reason to do him, but when he inquires, this person is Lu Taibao's teacher, and he immediately lost his curse, so he could only plug his ears and let him scold him."

At this time, it was the time of the annual Kou to enter the country, this time it was Yingzhou that was robbed, Yang Shun was still cowardly and cowardly, guarding more than 100,000 soldiers in Xuanda, and did not dare to go out of the city to rescue "His theory is that as long as the city is not lost. The court was so foolish, and as a result, more than 40 forts were broken in a row, and countless people were captured and countless finances were lost!

It wasn't until I was satisfied and left, he sent troops to transfer generals, pretending to pursue for a while, and didn't even see the shadow of a prisoner, if this was transmitted back to the capital, it would be a crime of fear of the enemy and losing the opportunity, and he would lose his head, a good Yang Shun. Not afraid of danger, on the one hand, he bribed the prison army Yu Shi Lu Kai with a lot of money, and on the other hand, he secretly ordered the soldiers to arrest the civilians who left their hometowns because of avoiding shoe captivity, beheaded more than 300 people, and used them as several captives, and sent them to the military department to report their merits!

is such a despicable and shameless person, who has lost his conscience and thundered in the sky, and he was listed as a general with great merit by Xu Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of War. requested the imperial court to add the title of crown prince, and was successfully approved"

Lamentable! Amusing! Shameful! However, if you want people not to know. Unless he does nothing, Yang Shun's evil deeds have deceived those blind court officials, and he can't deceive the people who have suffered deeply! At that time, I don't know how many new graves were added, and I don't know how many unjust ghosts were crying. Shen Lian saw it in his eyes and hated it in his heart, secretly collected information and sent it to his own students in the capital! But I really can't get rid of my hatred, so I wrote a happy scolding letter, and I didn't let people send it on my behalf. Since he wore a green coat and a small hat, he went to the governor of Xuanfu to deliver it in person.

When Yang Shun came back, he stopped the delivery of the letter, and Yang Shun didn't dare to snub this "noble protégé." The grass people, without saying a word, accepted the letter, and invited him to sit in for a while, Shen Lian did not refuse, and followed him into the governor's office.

After watching the tea, Yang Shun asked, "What happened to Mr.?" ”

Shen Lian said: "If you read the letter, you will know." ”

Yang smiled and opened the envelope. I took out the letter paper and opened it to see that it was three poems. One of them said: "There is a high sky in the clouds. The general of the Cypriot is already working.

Don't behead the people, pity the unjust blood stained frost knife"

Eryun: "What does it mean to kill a concubine?" The solution is successful, and the bones are dry. Listen to the stormy night on the battlefield, and the souls call each other to find the head.

The third way: "I was originally trying to survive to avoid captivity, but who knew that avoiding captives would be born!" I knew that the captives would be on leave, and I regretted that I would not follow the captives properly! ，

Yang Shundeng's face swelled like a pig's liver, and he trembled with anger and said, "How dare a madman? Fanatic"

Shen Lian suddenly got up. Pointing at Yang Shun's nose and scolding: The common people met me to answer. It was plundered, leaving only one life. It was already terrified and miserable; Then when I met my Ming officers and soldiers, I finally breathed a sigh of relief and ran over to cry, but I never imagined that what was waiting for them was the butcher's knife of my own people! These poor people. They didn't lose their lives with the captives, but they were killed by the officers and soldiers they fed, and they never looked away! If you turn into a ghost, you will curse that you will not die well! ”

Yang Shun was scolded so embarrassed and annoyed, he opened his mouth and shouted: "Come on" "People, before the word is spoken, so, poof, spurt out a mouthful of blood, and sit down."

The guards had already heard the movement, and at this time they rushed in and grabbed Shen Lian. Shen Lian was tied to his arms, and he scolded more than once: "You, a wicked obstacle who has lost all your conscience, actually killed my Ming civilians and risked merit, did your conscience let the dog eat it?" Or your mother didn't give birth to something like that for you at all, and you have been dragged out of the country, and you can still hear the scolding.

The reason why Shen Lian came alone was to not hurt the innocent, as for himself. Speaking of which, since the impeachment of Yan Song in the capital, he has long since cared about life and death."

But after a few days, he was let out, and the one waiting for him at the door was Nian Yongkang.

Yang Shun was scolded by him for a serious illness, and almost went straight to the ghost gate, and then the sores healed, but as long as he closed his eyes at night, he saw countless headless souls surrounding him, asking him to be headed, and the whole person couldn't sleep at night. It's so haggard that it can't be done, it's a skinny monkey, and now there's only a handful of bones left.

He didn't reflect on his crimes, but thought it was the result of Shen Lian's curse. The hatred for Shen Lian has reached the point of no return!
