Chapter 668: A Trip to Shenjiazhuang

Shen Lian said angrily: "This little beast brought it on himself. The scholarly family does not say that they work hard and make progress for the country and the people, but they feel sorry for themselves for the children's private feelings. You said that if the two are happy, it's okay, then Xia Nuxia clearly has no thoughts about him, he still has to stalk him, and it doesn't break my Shen family's style! It's not that the big thing is imminent now, I will punish this unfilial son first! ”

It's no wonder that Shen Lian is unhappy. He worked hard for two or three years in the side court to collect many incriminating evidence from Yang Shun. In addition, there has been another thing in the recent past, which is enough to turn things around. Originally, it was agreed with the Loyalty and Righteousness League that everyone would cooperate with each other, and they would try to plot to support the dynasty. Who knew that Shao Jing first got an overseas strange book, and he was busy going to Huguang to find his master Liang Ruyuan for advice, but he left and left the original plan. Then, Xia Zisu, a good hand in the Loyalty Alliance, disappeared after refusing Shen Gon's proposal. Long Xueyin, the wife of Shao Jing, who was tired, was busy with a few heroes of the Loyal and Righteous League, looking around, but now she is not in the village. Although there are still a few people here, such as Huo Zhenbei, the head of the Yanmen faction, after all, the presiding power is a little weaker.

Not to mention, there was news that the Son of Heaven had sent a messenger to investigate Yang Shun's case this time, but the messenger was Yan Hong, the eldest grandson of the Yan Mansion. This Yan Hong heard that he had done the Andingmen murder case two years ago, and that he had smashed the White Lotus Sect and the Mongolian Iron Cavalry in Jinan, and that he had killed the Japanese in Jiangnan this year, and that he was a hero of the young generation. However, according to the relationship between relatives and relatives, this Yan Hong wants to call Yang Shun his uncle, is he willing to seriously investigate Yang Shun's sins? Thinking of this, Shen Lian couldn't help but feel a little worried.

When Shen Lian was thinking about it, a family member suddenly came to report: "Master, there are twenty people outside the village who have come to ask to see you." Leader. It is said that the imperial court sent Yan Hong, who inspected Shanxi. Yan Xiqing! ”

Shen Lian was taken aback. After pondering for a moment, he sneered: "Please come in quickly, the study welcomes guests." ”

It stands to reason that Shen Lian has already been reduced to the people, and Yan Hong is a dignified official of the imperial court, and he has the honor of being a messenger. If you are an ordinary person, you should have gone out to greet you a long time ago. But Shen Lian is arrogant by nature, and he has always looked at the Yan family unpleasantly. How can you be inferior to him? is willing to say a word, which is already a big face-giving.

Yan Hong and the others were outside, and when they heard that their family members came to report "please come in", Yan Fu had already said angrily: "What kind of person is this surnamed Shen, who dares not to come out to greet him in person?" ”

Yan Hong said lightly: "Yan Fu, look at my father-in-law, Lu Dadudu's face, don't worry about him about this." "Let's just lift the placket and step into the village.

This Shenjiazhuang is not very big, and there are not many houses. After a while, I arrived at Shen Lian's study. Shen Lian personally greeted him at the door of the study. Yan Hong looked at this person. He is about fifty years old and wears a green cloth jacket. Medium stature, clear face, three locks of beard, can be called clear eyebrows, dignified appearance. It's just that maybe he has experienced a lot of wind and frost in Biansai, or maybe he has suffered from eating disorders caused by worrying about the country and the people, but there are a lot of wrinkles on his face, and his hair has long been gray.

Shen Lian looked at Yan Hong, he was a young man in his early twenties, he did not wear an official uniform this time, but was dressed as a rich son, wearing a crown of hair and more than ten pearls on it. Tall, with sword eyebrows and bright eyes, and a smile, he is really a handsome boy. Although Shen Lian had a deep opinion on the Yan family, he couldn't help but secretly praise that this Yan Hong's demeanor and appearance were much stronger than his father Yan Shifan.

After two face-to-face shots, Shen Lian said lukewarmly: "Yan Xiqing, Yan Dagongzi, come to the village, I don't know what to do?" ”

Yan Hong said urgently: "Ah, Mr. Shen." The lower officials were ordered by the Heavenly Family to patrol and proclaim the great. Mr. Inzhi is a generation of famous Confucians, and he is also an old man in Jinyiwei, so he must come to pay his respects and ask for guidance. ”

Shen Lian said: "So, please come in." "Let Yan Hong go to the study. Yan Hong made a look, and everyone in Jinyiwei stayed outside the study, and only Zhang Qingyan, who was dressed as a man, followed. Zhang Qingyan painted his face yellow at the moment, pretending to be a brocade guard Xiaoqi, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, without saying a word, only observing words and colors on the side.

The servants of the Shen family put the tea on the table, and Yan Hong took it up and took a sip. To be honest, the taste is really not very good, but fortunately, it is indeed tea, which is more decent than the legendary "circle tea" that Kou Zhun Hairui tore up with an old straw hat circle. He swallowed a bite and smiled.

Shen Lian said early: "Young Master Yan, Ming people don't say secret words. Although Shen had also been in Jinyiwei, he had no friendship with Yan Song and Yan Shifan. Childe didn't come this time just to drink my bland and tasteless tea, right? ”

It stands to reason that calling grandfather and father by name in front of their grandson is a big rudeness. Yan Hong was secretly angry in his heart, but he didn't move, and said with a smile: "Mr. really has eyesight. To tell you the truth, this time I was ordered to investigate Xuanda, and I heard rumors that Yang Shun, the governor of Xuanda, had done something that was not so good for the stage. I think that since Mr. is an old man in Jinyiwei, this insight into treacherous skills is naturally extraordinary. You've been in Biansai for many more days, as far as you know, how is this Yang Shun an official? ”

Shen Lian's heart moved, and he smiled: "How about Yang Shun as an official, you are the eldest grandson of the Yan Sect, is there anything else you don't know?" The filial piety he sends to the Yan Mansion every year is not a few, right? Could it be that I still sent it from you? ”

Yan Hong said: "Yang Xuanda sends filial piety every year, and there are indeed not a few. ”

Shen Lian said: "That's it." How much can he proclaim the governor's fortune in a year? Is it enough to give a small change? Now that he can move this mountain of gold and silver to your Yan Mansion, will it still be his own waist bag to pay homage? Of course, it is the looted people's fat and people's ointment, and the blood of the soldiers drunk. ”

Yan Hong said: "If this is the case, then this matter can also be evil, Xuanda is the gateway to the country, and it is a matter of peace and well-being. ”

Shen Lian sneered: "Listening to the words of the eldest prince, it is awe-inspiring and upright. What Yang Shun did in the side court, I don't believe you, Yan Mansion doesn't know. But after all, he is the godson of your grandfather Yan Song, could it be that you still want to kill your relatives in righteousness? ”

Yan Hongxin said, surnamed Shen, even if you give a little good face, we can discuss. Like you, who slaps your face every word, it's no wonder that the dignified Jinshi of the country has mixed up in such a field. He didn't care about this madman in general, and only said with a straight face: "Mr. Shen, I, Yan Hong, am a layman, how dare I kill my relatives and Yunyun with righteousness?" It's just that my Yan Mansion has always been favored by the Heavenly Family, and I have also enjoyed countless benefits from the country. That Yang Shun is indeed my grandfather's adopted son, and I want to call him uncle. But if he really messes up the side court, I won't tolerate the adulterer. If you talk about intimacy, then Liu Cai, the governor of Shandong, is not still my grandfather's son. But since he was corrupt and perverted the law in Jinan, causing millions of people to fall into misery, I also cut him off. ”

Shen Lian was shocked when he heard Yan Hong mention the words "Shandong Liu Cai", and then listened to Yan Hong's words, he was stunned for a moment, and Fang smiled: "In this way, Yan Qin sent here to really want to investigate and deal with the Yang Shun thief and remove this great harm for the soldiers and civilians of the border court?" ”

Yan Hong said unhurriedly: "I didn't come this time to investigate anyone, nor did I want to protect anyone. I was just ordered by the Heavenly Family to see what the Xuanda Side Court was like. If the officials here are clean and the people are smooth, then they will naturally repay the heavenly family and let the heavenly family rest assured. But if there is really any hidden danger here, I am deeply favored by the country, and of course I will not bend the law and sit back and watch a group of rats and dogs and thieves disturb the Ming frontier. You must know that my wealth and wealth are all given by the heavenly family, and if it disturbs the Ming Dynasty, then I Yan Mansion and I Yan Hong will not be good. I Yan Hong understands the truth in this. ”

Shen Lian nodded: "Yan Qincha is a straight person, with your heart, Shen also admires it." ”

Yan Hong said: "Don't dare to be." Mr. Shen, I came to visit you this time, but I sincerely asked for advice. To tell you the truth, I also heard rumors in the capital that on the side of Xuanda, Governor Yang Shunduo had inappropriate behavior. However, the officials and generals who went to Xuanda to ask many parties said that Yang Xuanda was an official, and there was nothing wrong with it. When we had to collect any evidence, we found nothing. Because of this, I came to visit and asked Mr. Shen to give Yan some pointers for the sake of Governor Lu. If Yang Shun is really fine, then of course it is good, but I am afraid that the investigation is unclear and will live up to the grace of the heavenly family. (To be continued......)
