Today is Teacher's Day, and I wish you all a happy holiday.

Shen Lian is known to have a crazy temperament. He was originally a Jinshi and worked as a magistrate. But because he often spoke profligate and attacked the ministers, he was demoted to the brocade guard. It seems that such a national dynasty jinshi, a noble civil official, has been degraded to a heavenly eagle dog, which can be regarded as a heavy punishment. Lu Bing cherished his talent and made him a cronie, so he went to the Yan Mansion for a banquet and took him with him, as if he was a close secretary. It's just that Shen Lian's kung fu is too bad, or he is proud of it, and he is even more proud of his talents, and he is seriously unpleasant to the Yan father and son who are sycophants and slander the courtiers, and they are still arrogant and rude when they arrive at the Yan Mansion, and often openly contradict Yan Shifan. What a hegemonic figure of the Yan family's father and son, Shen Lian was so offended, if it weren't for Lu Bing's face, there would be a hundred of them killed fifty pairs. After that, Shen Lian didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he impeached Yan Song for ten crimes. Of course, the Yan family wants to take action against him now. Lu Bing only saved his life, but his official position was dismissed, and he was sent to the security guard to open up the wasteland and repair the Earth King.

Shen Lian's behaviors not only made his position depreciate again and again, but also won a good reputation with his iron bones. And in the Ming Dynasty, this reputation was by no means a useless thing. After Shen Lian reached the ground, someone took the initiative to provide him with a house, and someone also cultivated the field for him, and there was no shortage of firewood and rice, and his life was very leisurely.

And Shen Lian often hangs the poor and asks about the sick, and opens a free school, so that children from poor families have a place to study; Go deeper into the border passes, talk with soldiers and border people, and rely on the identity of the Jinshi of his own country to take the lead in affairs. This behavior further enhanced his reputation.

Shen Lian is both civil and military, in addition to being able to write with a pen, he can also shoot a bow and arrow on a horse. Martial arts. He made three straw men. A wooden sign is inserted on it. wrote the names of "Li Linfu", "Qin Hui", and "Yan Song", and put Yan Song and the two traitors side by side, and often rode horses and shot grass for fun.

If this kind of behavior is placed in the Qing Dynasty in the later generations, it will be a nirvana. However, the laws of the Ming Dynasty were not strict in this regard, and the attitude of the people was relatively relaxed, so the general attitude of this kind of thing was left to him. Therefore, Yan Song was embarrassed to pull down his face, and directly started to clean up this madman, and he couldn't see it. Always shoot grass people and don't really put themselves to how long and short they are.

Yang Shun said all these things, and said: "That Shen Lian was originally a criminal official, and he didn't want to repent, but peeked into the military situation at the border, who knows what he is going to do?" There are people below him who are fascinated by him, and they are willing to help him. Therefore, every time I go to the border, there are always many people in front of and behind him to protect him, and I can't help it. If the eldest prince intends to deal with him, he can make a fuss about it. He is guilty of colluding with Mongolia and spying on military intelligence. I don't think it's bad. ”

Yan Hong said: "Uncle is right. It is useless for such a fanatic to remain in the world. Naturally, he will be spended, and it will not be in vain for me to run to Datong. ”

Yan Ru coughed at this time and asked, "Eldest prince, the student heard from his subordinates that the people who sent the Qin Dispatch arrested a lot of single merchants in the city. I don't know why the eldest prince came, but some merchants offended the eldest prince? If you don't have to work for the old man, the students will come forward and discipline them one by one. ”

Yan Hong said: "It's not. It's just that my beloved concubine Sun is pregnant, and these hundreds of brocade clothes under my hands will coax and beg for rewards. If you say that you don't appreciate this kind of thing, it will not be very glorious. If you say reward, where will the money come from? Isn't it possible for me to pay for my own purse? In this Datong city, the vassal king can't move, and the uncle's business can't move, thinking about it, or to catch the watch and force them to hand over flowers and donate; Either they will arrest these merchants and scare them so that each of them will come up with a sum of money to buy their lives. ”

After Yang Shun and Yan Ru listened to the report, they also analyzed what they were going to do. These merchants have traveled a lot from south to north, and they are everywhere at the border gates, could it be that Yan Hong really wants to find out something from them? Now that I heard Yan Hongyi say it, I realized that it was for this reason, so I smiled and said: "The eldest prince really has a way to make money, admire and admire." These merchants are the masters who value money as their lives, and it is difficult for them to spit out money if they don't give them some power. If you need any torture tools, or people who need to be executed, the eldest prince can just come and get them, and we have them. ”

Yan Hong chatted with them for a few words, then got up and said goodbye, saying that he was going back to interrogate those merchants, and when he got out of the governor's yamen, Yan Ru whispered: "The eldest prince, one exposure is not worth ten colds." That Tao Songzhai got the favor yesterday, I am afraid that it is going to stir up the fire, and the eldest prince has to walk around more, so as not to make the beauty anxious. As for this reward for the three armies, it is actually not interesting, so it is better to leave it to the big commander and the small one to do. In the head of the water, five points are given to the Jin merchants, and the other five points are two points of filial piety to the elders, one point of filial piety to the elders of the small pavilion, and the other two points, you and the handsome can cut the account with a knife to ensure that they do not suffer losses. ”

Yan Hong smiled slightly, and said to Yan Ru: "Mr. Yan, I naturally receive my uncle's kindness." But this reward, to tell you the truth, it was the Heavenly Family who asked me to come by name. If you don't do it yourself, it's always hard to account. Rest assured, the little nephew has also been calculating in the capital for a few years, and the proportions in this are reasonable. Seeing that Yan Hong insisted, Yan Ru couldn't persuade him anymore, so he turned around on his own.

Yan Hong returned to his house, went to the backyard first, picked up one or two of the arrested merchants, and pretended to ask about them. Those merchants were arrested inexplicably, originally because it was Yang Shun's officers and soldiers who robbed them. When he heard that it was actually the Jinyi Guard who was personally led by the imperial court, he suddenly scattered one by one. Seeing Yan Hong, let him go south and north, see a lot of knowledge, and can't help but tremble and flatter. Yan Hong was not tepid, and only asked about some customs. The merchants naturally told the truth. asked about the customs and customs, and Yan Hong asked about his life outside the Xuanda Senesei. This question, but I know that the family members of the original military family are laughing, which is quite common in Xuanda. When asked about the business done back and forth, the merchants had hard mouths and tricks, and compared them inside and out, Yang Shun opened the border market privately, and the matter of indulging the Mongols to trade and make money basically did not run. After asking, he took him back to prison, but he didn't let go.

That night, Yan Hong weighed again and again, Yang Shun had done so many things, and he naturally couldn't stay in the position of Xuanda. However, as instructed by his father Yan Shifan, the evidence of Yang Shun's illegal deeds should still be carefully collected and taken back to Yan Shifan, which can be regarded as strengthening the bond on Yang Shun. But according to Yang Daye, due to Yan Ru's methods, these evidences are not so easy to obtain. Since this is the case, I have no choice but to go to Shenjiazhuang. Whether he can turn enemies into friends with Shen Lian, Yan Hong does not have great expectations. However, if Shen Lian really had evidence of Yang Shun, it would be better to get it. One is to complete Yan Shifan's task, and the other is that Yang Shun's evidence is indirectly unfavorable to Yan Mansion, and if it falls into the hands of Shen Lian for a long time, it will not be a good thing.

Thinking of Shen Lian, Yan Hong couldn't help but think of Xia Zisu, and remembered what Zhang Qingyan said that Xia Zisu and Shen Lian's second son used to be on the same boat in Jiangnan. Thinking of this, Yan Hong's heart was furious. If you really want to go to Shenjiazhuang, you have to ask about it.

Early in the morning of the third day, Yan Hong visited Yang Shun and told him that he was going to lead the troops out of the city under the pretext of patrolling the border fortress. Yang Shun was stunned: "Virtuous nephew, you are too bitter to be a Qincha." Now that it's winter, the weather in the side is not fun. This is catching up with heavy snowfall, and I am afraid that the road will go south. If you want me to say, you still stay in Datong Mansion. What news do you want, uncle, I have been in Shanxi for several years, but there is still something I can't get? ”

Yan Hong snorted and said, "Don't hide it from my uncle, my nephew and I will be comfortable." It's just that the Heavenly Family sent me out this time, and made a special trip to instruct that I must check the situation of the Biansai Fortress thoroughly, and the Heavenly Family may call me to inquire when I go back. If I don't go on this trip myself, who knows what the Heavenly Family asks? Take the news given by my uncle, but seeing is believing, hearing is false, and it is difficult to ensure that nothing is lost. ”

Yang Shun said again: "In that case, let me make Mr. Yan Ruyan accompany the virtuous nephew." He was originally from the Northland, and he didn't boast about the castles that were everywhere here, but he knew everything about it. I'm relieved to have him by your side to guide me. ”

Yan Hong said with a smile: "My nephew is here, I believe in the reins, and there is no certain plan, in short, I will not go to the Tartar realm." Yan Ru is the right and left hand of his uncle, and his uncle is in charge of the border defense, and there are many things, if he leaves, he is afraid that Yu Xuanda's affairs will not be smooth. And Mr. Yan is by my side, and I am afraid that my uncle is waiting for someone here, and I am afraid that it will not be pleasant to wander around. Uncle just don't worry about me.
