Chapter 2405: Shen Lian, the commander of Jin Yiwei
Chapter 2405: Jinyiwei commanded Shen Lian
Lancelot and Gawain were able to defeat Yuan Xiaozhi and others through their combined efforts. When they were weak, they were attacked by Ying Hao. Both of them were seriously injured with just one move of "Double Dragons Leaping to the Sea".
Just when they were about to despair and thought they were going to die, Ying Hao unexpectedly sat down cross-legged and made a breakthrough in luck on the spot. This also gave Lancelot and Gawain a little hope.
Although they don't know who Ying Hao is, the opponent must have such strength and his status in the Qin Dynasty is not low. If they take advantage of the opponent's breakthrough and hijack him, they may be able to use him as a basis to escape from the city.
Both Gawain and Lancelot were seriously injured, Gawain was unable to move, and only Lancelot still had the ability to move.
Lancelot endured the injury and climbed out of the hole with difficulty. After using his martial arts to soothe the injury, he ran towards Ying Hao with his sword in hand.
When Shen Lian saw this, he gritted his teeth and stood in the middle of the road.
After all, he was a former secret agent. Although he did not recognize Ying Hao, he recognized Jiang Juan and Xiong Kuohai.
These two generals are both personal guards of the emperor. The identity of the person who can be protected by them is naturally obvious.
The person who just took action was actually His Majesty the Emperor?
Shen Lian's heart was full of shock. Although he didn't understand why the emperor appeared here, his majesty was making a breakthrough now. As the banner of the Imperial Guard and the former Black Ice Platform, he had to risk his life to protect him.
Shen Lian gathered all his strength and looked at Lancelot with his sword, but he easily avoided it and then backhanded him, forcing Shen Lian to block. Then he was blasted away by the sword and knocked down a stone wall.
Without the help of a master, Shen Lian couldn't even take the injured Lancelot's sword.
"Second brother."
Seeing that Shen Lian was injured, Jin Yichuan roared and rushed towards Lancelot, but before he could even get close, he was knocked away by Lancelot with a palm from the air and fell next to Shen Lian.
"I told you not to take action." Shen Lian said with a bitter smile.
"Second brother, we have sworn not to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. How can I, as a younger brother, watch you die?" Jin Yichuan said while coughing up blood.
"Don't worry, none of our brothers will die."
Shen Lian was categorical. Although he didn't know why the emperor appeared this time, he knew that there must be more than two generals guarding the emperor, and there must be secretly guards at the level of a grandmaster or even a grand master.
Lancelot, who was seriously injured, wanted to kidnap His Majesty the Emperor? It was nothing more than a dream.
As expected by Shen Lian, after Lancelot approached Ying Hao fifty steps, before Jiang Juan and Xiong Kuohai took action, a sound came from his ears.
"Alien, stop."
This sound can only be heard by Lancelot, and it goes straight to the brain, deafening and heart-stopping.
Lancelot looked around and saw no one else. He was shocked, but he was unwilling to give up and leave his life and death in the hands of others, so he continued to move forward.
But he had just taken a step when an extremely tyrannical aura rushed towards him, preventing him from moving forward and getting closer to Ying Hao, making it impossible for him to take the second step.
Lancelot was horrified in his heart. This aura was as strong as the vast ocean, making him feel extremely small, which showed how powerful this man was.
Can people really have such strong power?
"You don't even want to show your face, and you just want to stop me with your momentum? Your Excellency is too arrogant."
Lancelot roared unwillingly, mobilized all his strength, and wanted to take the second step, but this step was unexpectedly difficult. The pressure from all directions made his bones crack, but he was not allowed to take this step.
On the roof of a three-story building not far away, Kong Xuan and Pei Ju stood at the top. They were both guards secretly protecting Ying Hao.
When Kong Xuan saw that this alien wanted to continue moving forward under the pressure of his own momentum, a look of amusement suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Pei Ju asked with a smile: "Kong Xuan, do you think this alien race can take the second step?"
"It's impossible. It might be possible if he wasn't injured, but he was injured by His Majesty's sword. Unless he breaks through, he will never be able to step forward..."
Before Kong Xuan finished speaking, Lancelot, who was enveloped by his momentum, actually broke through after letting out an unyielding roar. He then took the second step and broke through the pressure of Kong Xuan's momentum.
, rushed towards Ying Hao quickly.
[Ding dong, Lancelot breaks his own bottleneck, and his force is permanently 1. Current: Commander 80, force 105 (1), intelligence 63 (3), politics 64 (3), charm 95 (2); equipment: indestructible
Sword of Lake Light;】
"It actually broke through."
A look of surprise appeared on Kong Xuan's face, and then he said with a sudden look on his face: "So that's it, this person was already on the verge of a breakthrough, and this time he made a breakthrough with the help of my pressure.
I really didn’t expect that I, Kong Xuan, would be used by an alien race."
On the other side, Jiang Juan and Xiong Kuohai saw Lancelot resume his actions and immediately geared up to capture him.
But when Lancelot came within thirty steps, Kong Xuan and Pei Ju fell from the sky.
Kong Xuan stretched out his right hand that was surrounded by Gang Qi, caught Lancelot's stabbing sword with his fingers, and asked: "With your skill, you should not be an unknown person. Please give me your name."
"I am the son of the King of France, the eighth lineage of Jesus Christ, the Knight of the Lake of the Round Table, Lancelot."
Lancelot gritted his teeth and said, then he gathered all his fighting energy into his hands and stabbed with all his strength, but he still couldn't shake Kong Xuan in the slightest.
"Knights of the Round Table?"
Pei Ju looked thoughtful. He seemed to have heard this word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Kong Xuan said at this time: "It seems that you are also a soldier. If you die at the hands of me, Kong Xuan, it will not be considered an insult to you."
After saying that, Kong Xuan loosened his fingers and let the sword stab him. However, when he was about to touch his forehead, he jumped out of the way and stabbed Lancelot's throat with the sword.
This process happened so fast that Lancelot could not avoid it, but just when he was about to die, Pei Ju suddenly shouted: "General Kong Xuan, please show mercy."
Pei Ju had already remembered, the Knights of the Round Table, weren't they the army of the Phoenix Marquis' country? So the two foreigners were subordinates of the Phoenix Marquis? So he quickly spoke to stop them.
When Kong Xuan heard this, he quickly changed his goals.
boom……
Several walls behind Lancelot were all pierced by Kong Xuan's finger. Although he himself was not hurt in any way, he was frozen in place, not even daring to move.
Kong Xuan first knocked Lancelot out with a knife, and then looked at Pei Ju with a puzzled expression. He didn't understand why Pei Ju stopped him at the critical moment. But after listening to Pei Ju's explanation, he understood that it was possible for these two aliens to
It's one of our own.
After capturing Lancelot and Gawain, Kong Xuan and Pei Ju, one on the left and one on the right, guarded Ying Hao to ensure that the early breakthrough would not be disturbed until half an hour later.
[Ding dong, the host breaks its own bottleneck, the force is permanently 1, currently: commander 101, force 107, intelligence 100, politics 103, charm 108;]
"call……"
After Ying Hao let out a long breath, he opened his eyes and saw Kong Xuan and Pei Ju, both looking at him with concern on their faces.
"Will your Majesty's breakthrough go smoothly?" Pei Ju asked quickly.
Ying Hao stretched out his right hand, Gang Qi gathered in his palm, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, dear, I have successfully broken through to the half-step Grand Master level."
Hearing this, Pei Ju secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was envious of the emperor's talent. He did not have such a high level of cultivation at the emperor's age.
Seeing that there were no Gawain and Gawain around, Ying Hao couldn't help but become a little nervous and asked quickly: "By the way, where are the two aliens? You won't kill them, right?"
His breakthrough was too sudden and he didn't have time to make any explanation. If Kong Xuan killed Gawain and the others, wouldn't he suffer a huge loss?
"No, those two aliens were very skilled, and they were with the Knights of the Round Table of the Phoenix Marquis. Their subordinates thought they might be related to the Phoenix Marquis, so they just knocked them unconscious and have been sent to the Imperial Hospital for treatment." Kong Xuan said.
.
"It's good that I'm not dead."
Ying Hao breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Ask Phoenix Marquis to return to the capital immediately to claim someone."
"promise."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Xiaozhi brought Zhan Zhao, Ye Liuyun, Shen Lian and others over, and together they saluted Ying Hao and said, "See your majesty, see the commander."
Your Majesty refers to Ying Hao, and the commander is Pei Ju.
When Pei Ju served under Jia Xu, he served as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, that is, the commander. Later, he broke through and became the grand master, so he resigned from the position of commander.
At this time, Ying Hao not only wore contact lenses to cover his trademark double pupils, but also changed his appearance. He was not his original appearance, but Yuan Xiaozhi and others still recognized his identity.
Apart from His Majesty the Emperor, who else could have the two Grand Masters under their personal protection?
Yuan Xiaozhi knelt down to plead guilty and said: "I am guilty of underestimating my position, please punish me."
"Oh? What is Yuan Aiqing's crime?"
"I underestimated the strength of these two alien races and almost killed all my brothers. Instead, I relied on His Majesty's intervention to survive. I am guilty of serious dereliction of duty and am willing to die to apologize."
After hearing this, Ying Hao smiled and helped Yuan Xiaozhi up, and said: "Yuan Aiqing, in order to arrest these two people, you summoned four masters and many first-class masters. This is enough attention.
You will be defeated, not because you don't pay enough attention, but because of the error in intelligence. It is not your fault. Just pay attention next time."
"His Majesty……"
Yuan Xiaozhi was so ashamed that he was even ready to die as an apology, but after hearing Ying Hao's words, he was immediately moved to tears, and this tough-minded man actually choked up.
After Ying Hao comforted Yuan Xiaozhi for a few words, his eyes fell on Shen Lian again.
"Isn't this Shen Lian?"
Shen Lian suddenly showed a look of surprise when he heard this, and immediately knelt down and saluted excitedly.
"Shen Lian, a humble official, is here to meet His Majesty."
Shen Lian did meet the emperor a few times when he was No. 5, but there were many people traveling with him at that time, and he was not prominent among them, so he never expected that the emperor would still remember him.
Jin Yichuan and Ji Ying were also stunned. They couldn't believe that His Majesty the Emperor would know Shen Lian, the seventh-level general banner, and the image of Shen Lian in their hearts became more and more tall and mysterious.
Ying Hao pointed at Shen Lian's clothes and said with a smile: "Shen Lian, why are you still just a general? As long as the secret agents at the same time as you are still alive, the lowest is fifth grade, why do you keep getting better and better? Yes? If I remember correctly, you have made a lot of contributions."
I still have a good impression of Shen Lian and Ying Hao in "Xiu Chun Dao".
His character prototype is Shen Lian, a minister of the Ming Dynasty. He was upright and hated evil. He wrote "Qingxia Collection" and had his own biography in "History of the Ming Dynasty".
Today's Shen Lian may not be strong, but his ability is absolutely top-notch. With such a talented person with both civil and military skills, Ying Hao will naturally put him to good use.
"System, detect the attributes of Shen Lian and Yuan Xiaozhi."
[Shen Lian: Commander 79, military force in the mid-term, intelligence 76, politics 93, charm 82;]
[Yuan Xiaozhi: Commander 82, Half-step Master of Martial Arts, Intelligence 73, Politics 82, Charm 88; Equipment: Golden Cross Sword;]
Seeing this, Ying Hao couldn't help but secretly nod. The officials who ascended to high positions in the Ming Dynasty were not too low in political attributes, such as Shen Lian and Yuan Xiaozhi.
Yuan Xiaozhi became the commander of the Jin Yiwei at the age of 28, while Shen Lian fought with the powerful minister Yan Songzheng. If his political attributes were not high enough, it would be impossible for him to reach that position.
After hearing Ying Hao's words, Shen Lian looked embarrassed and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer.
Could it be said that while he has made many meritorious deeds, he has also made many mistakes?
Or did you offend your boss and get benched?
Criticizing a Shangguan in front of the emperor, whether right or wrong, will definitely give the emperor a bad impression.
"Your Majesty, I have committed a serious crime and am still in the process of performing meritorious deeds, so I have not been allowed to be promoted."
Shen Lian still told the truth. After all, the former commander Pei Ju was here, and he must know his true identity.
"Dedicate one's crime to meritorious deeds?"
Ying Hao really didn't know this. After all, the Qin Dynasty was so big and there were so many officials. It was impossible for him to pay attention to everyone, let alone Shen Lian, the seventh-grade general banner.
Pei Ju leaned close to Ying Hao's ear and told Ying Hao everything about Shen Lian's mistakes.
After hearing this, Ying Hao smiled and said: "It's just a young girl who left. What the Imperial Tutor did is too trivial to make a big deal out of a trivial matter. To be punished so heavily for a trivial offense, if things go on like this, won't it chill the heart of the meritorious officials?"
Let's do this, I'll make the decision, let Shen Lian balance your merits and demerits, and restore the official position to his original position.
Pei Aiqing, what was Shen Lian's rank before he was demoted?"
"Reporting to your majesty, I am from the fourth rank." Pei Ju replied.
Jin Yichuan felt numb when he heard this. The second brother was actually a fourth-rank official before? He couldn't be dreaming.
"It's just from the fourth rank, so let's move up to half a rank. Shen Lian also has merit in escorting this time, so he will be promoted to the fourth rank of Jin Yiwei Zheng to command the affairs." Ying Hao said.
Shen Lian was overjoyed when he heard this. He had been on the bench for many years, but he didn't expect that an official would be reinstated. No, it would be a better day.
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. Shen Lian will go to pieces to repay His Majesty's kindness." Shen Lian thanked him.
Yuan Xiaozhi and Ji Ying on the side were also stunned. One of them was from Siping to the fifth level, and they were both higher than Shen Lian, who was the seventh level general.
But now Shen Lian has jumped from the seventh rank to the fourth rank to command the general affairs, crossing six levels. This is a unique thing in Jinyiwei.
