Chapter 580: Destroy it with your own hands! How big is this!
Li Yuanchang stared at Shen Lian. His eyes seemed to be nailed to Shen Lian at this moment.
He said: "When did you come back? You can't have that much time to investigate!"
Li Yuanchang really couldn't accept it.
Ten years!
For ten years, no one found out the truth.
But why was Shen Lian able to find out in a short time!
Therefore, he felt that maybe Shen Lian had been eyeing this case for a long time.
He didn't want to believe that Shen Lian investigated this case just a few days after returning.
With Shen Lian's ability to recognize people, he could easily see through Li Yuanchang's thoughts.
He looked at Li Yuanchang calmly and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the King of Han guessed wrong this time. I will only be back for three or four days."
"I really don't have much time to investigate. The time you left for me to frame Master Bai is only so little, so I don't have more time to devote to your case."
Li Yuanchang's eyes widened: "You... how could you, how could you find this place!"
"It's been ten years. No one has found this place for ten years. How could you find it?"
Shen Lian glanced at the somewhat crazy Li Yuanchang and said calmly: "How can I find it? It's all thanks to you!"
"If you hadn't framed Lord Bai and wanted to kill Lord Bai, I really wouldn't have paid much attention to this case!"
"But you should never, never..."
Shen Lian's eyes were cold, his tone became colder, and he said: "You shouldn't take action against Lord Bai, you shouldn't frame Lord Bai!"
"Lord Bai devoted his whole life to the law of the Tang Dynasty."
"He has never had a stain in his life!"
"But because of you, he almost died having betrayed his lifelong faith."
"This is unforgivable!"
Li Yuanchang took two steps backwards.
He looked at Shen Lian and felt that Qin Wenyuan in front of him seemed to be filled with an aura that made him extremely frightened.
Shen Lian's tone did not fluctuate much!
But it made him feel tight inside, and he subconsciously stepped back.
Shen Lian said: "In this world, good and evil will always be rewarded in the end!"
"It's not that I won't report it, the time has not yet come!"
"Do you think you can bury everything in ten years?"
"As long as it is a case that I know about, as long as it is a case that I investigate, as long as there are still people who expect the truth, let alone ten years, even fifty years, or even a hundred years..."
Shen Lian said calmly: "Me too, I will let the truth come out!"
"This world deserves more truth!"
Li Yuanchang's mouth trembled up and down, he wanted to say something.
But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
He actually found himself unable to refute.
Shen Lian’s faith is very firm!
Shen Lian's pursuit of the truth left him speechless!
Li Yuanchang lowered his head, his voice was hoarse and full of weakness: "You are more skilled, I lost to you, I accept it."
Shen Lian said calmly: "You didn't lose to me, you lost to your own ambition. If you had no ambition, if you weren't so vicious and killed so many people, I wouldn't have the chance to come to you."
"So, don't talk like you're disappointed."
"When you do these evil things, you should wake up."
Li Shimin looked at Li Yuanchang and asked in a cold voice: "Why do you do this? Why have I done anything wrong to you?"
Li Yuanchang just laughed when he heard Li Shimin's words.
"Your Majesty, don't you know why I do this?"
"After all, that's what you gave me!"
"You can seize the throne, then I..."
Li Yuanchang said: "Why not?"
Shen Lian sent Bai Yanguan out of the palace and separated from Bai Yanguan.
Official Bai Yan has restored his reputation and all the accusations against him have been cleared.
Therefore, it is time for Bai Yanguan to return to the Ministry of Justice and continue working.
Bai Yanguan was banned from home for many days, and many matters of the Criminal Department were put on hold.
And because Li Shimin has always believed in Official Bai Yan, he has not arranged for officials to replace Official Bai Yan. Therefore, the backlog of matters in the Ministry of Punishments needs to be handled by Official Bai Yan himself.
Therefore, Bai Yanguan is also very busy.
Shen Lian sent Bai Yanguan out of the palace and ordered people to send Bai Yanguan to the Ministry of Punishment.
But he did not leave the palace, but turned around and walked towards the palace.
Shen Lian was going to see Li Shimin.
He came back for many days because he wanted to clear official Bai Yan's suspicion and catch Li Yuanchang without alerting others, so he had to hide his traces.
Therefore, I never went to see Li Shimin.
Now that I have finished my work, I can go see Li Shimin.
He also needed to report many things in Nanzhao to Li Shimin.
In this way, Shen Lian walked through the palace corridor and soon arrived in front of Zichen Hall.
As soon as they arrived here, a guard said to Shen Lian: "Master Shen, Your Majesty has an order. If Master Shen comes, you don't need to announce and just come in directly."
Li Shimin predicted that he would come, and Shen Lian was not surprised.
After all, this palace is Li Shimin's palace. If Li Shimin doesn't even know his whereabouts, it would be too unqualified.
He nodded slightly and said, "Thank you very much."
After saying that, Shen Lian walked directly to Zichen Hall.
When he reached the door, a guard opened the door. Shen Lian walked in without any hesitation.
The last time I came to Zichen Hall was last year.
This time, when he came back, looking at the familiar decorations, Shen Lian felt that things were different.
He walked to the front of the palace, bowed his hands to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty."
Li Shimin was correcting the memorial. When he heard Shen Lian's words, he raised his head.
Before he raised his head, Li Shimin's expression was still very bad.
After all, being stabbed in the back by your younger brother who you take good care of is definitely not a pleasant thing.
But the moment he saw Shen Lian, the gloominess on Li Shimin's face seemed to disappear with the wind.
His old smile returned to his face.
He looked at Shen Lian and said with a smile: "You are finally willing to come to me. Even if you go to Changle, you won't come to me. You really can do that!"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, have you guessed it?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Shimin snorted and said: "Apart from Chang Le who can hide it from me, bring you to the palace, and help you investigate the situation in Hanfang Palace, who else can do this? a little?"
"Although my ability to solve crimes is not as strong as yours, I can still do it with some simple reasoning."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "After all, this matter is of great importance, and His Highness the King of Han is hiding too deeply and thinking too deeply. I am worried that there are people watching from His Majesty's side."
"If I come to see His Majesty and he finds out about it, he will probably alert the enemy."
"If he escapes directly because of this, wouldn't we lose more than we gain?"
"That's why I didn't come to see Your Majesty immediately. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Li Shimin waved his hand casually and said: "I am not stupid enough to blame the heroes of the Tang Dynasty."
"I understand what you mean. I watched him grow up. I put a lot of thought into him. I gave him everything I could, but in the end... I still didn't see him through, and I was still attracted by him. Being betrayed, I was really close to causing cracks in the Tang Dynasty."
"For so many years, I haven't penetrated his essence, so your worries are not unreasonable."
He took a deep breath, then I looked at Shen Lian and said, "What are you going to do with him?"
Shen Lian said calmly: "According to the law, the three departments will conduct a joint trial and jointly convict. There is a high probability..."
He looked at Li Shimin and said: "I will kill him."
Li Shimin was silent for a moment and did not continue the topic.
He asked Shen Lian: "You have come back from Nanzhao. How is the situation in Nanzhao?"
Shen Lian said: "Your Majesty, the alliance army has been victorious. When I returned, they had pushed through nearly half of Nanzhao's territory."
"Nanzhao is completely unable to resist the alliance army."
"So, no surprise, the alliance army will definitely win this battle."
"And this battle has also made the alliance army feel emotional. In the future, this alliance of countries will be more stable, and my position in the Tang Dynasty will also be more stable!"
Li Shimin nodded slightly.
He showed a smile and said, "This is the best news so far."
Shen Lian also laughed and said, "Yes, this is indeed something worth being happy about."
"After this battle, the Tang Dynasty's position among the countries has been completely stabilized."
"And with the status of the alliance of nations, Datang has truly become the most powerful superpower in the world!"
"It is definitely not a dream for all nations to come to the DPRK in the future."
Li Shimin's eyes lit up after listening to Shen Lian's words.
His greatest hope in this life is to make the Tang Dynasty have the magnificent scene of all nations coming to court!
If these things can happen, then he can be sure that he will leave a mark in the history books.
This is something that emperors of all dynasties, even Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han, could not do!
And he did it!
This political achievement is enough for him to make up for the stain of the Xuanwu Gate Incident in the history books!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin finally felt much better.
The sadness caused by Li Yuanchang's betrayal finally felt better.
He looked at Shen Lian and smiled even more: "You kid, you always surprise me all of a sudden. I don't even know what to say about you."
Shen Lian chuckled and said, "Isn't your Majesty happy?"
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Of course I am happy. You have done so much for me, how can I not be happy?"
He looked at Shen Lian and said: "This is a great achievement. I don't know how to reward you. What reward do you want? I promise you that no matter what reward you are, I will satisfy you."
Shen Lian shook his head and said, "I am very satisfied with the current situation."
"Your Majesty trusted me and allowed me to become the Duke of the Tang Dynasty at such a young age. No matter what case I handle, Your Majesty will spare no effort to believe in me and support me."
"All this moved me very much."
"As the saying goes, if you treat me like a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman, so I don't ask for any reward."
Shen Lian's words were not polite.
But he really doesn't want any reward.
He also had his own personal purpose in going to Nanzhao.
Li Shimin was already very kind to him.
Not only did he make an exception to make him the Duke of the Tang Dynasty and give him enough trust, but he also gave her perhaps his most precious daughter.
Moreover, when Shen Lian was a child, Li Shimin secretly took good care of him.
For Shen Lian, these are all things that Shen Lian needs to remember.
Shen Lian considers himself not a kind person, but he is also a contented and grateful person.
Li Shimin has been very good to him, so he will naturally not be greedy anymore.
However, Li Shimin was a little dissatisfied.
He said: "You have done meritorious service, and you are not allowed to refuse rewards."
"It's not been easy for you these past few years. You grew up alone and suffered so much hardship. Now your life is better, so don't say no to me."
He thought for a while and said: "I will think carefully about what you lack. When I think of it, I will give it to you directly. Don't refuse."
Shen Lian smiled bitterly and said, "Why do you still buy and sell by force, Your Majesty?"
"snort!"
Li Shimin glanced at him and said, "My precious daughter is going to marry you. If I don't reward you with anything more, I'll let my precious daughter endure hardships with you."
Shen Lian naturally knew that Li Shimin was joking.
Princesses have always been supported by the palace. Even if they get married, they still receive monthly stipends. How can they endure hardships?
Li Shimin said: "Okay, don't get involved in this matter with me."
He waved his hand, narrowed his eyes, and his tone became serious again, saying: "Have you ever found the Beidou Society's home base in Nanzhao?"
Li Shimin knew that Shen Lian went to Nanzhao in person, with the purpose of attacking the power of the Beidou Society.
So he wanted to know that Shen Lian was back now, but there were results.
Then, he saw Shen Lian nodded.
Shen Lian looked at him and said, "It's been solved."
"We found the Beidou Society's home base in Nanzhao, and made a big fuss there."
"Then we left there, but not long after, I heard it was empty."
"Everyone from the Beidou Club has left!"
"I guess they knew that Nanzhao couldn't protect them at all, so in order to avoid huge casualties, they fled directly."
Li Shimin nodded slightly.
He said: "Assuming they escaped early, otherwise no one would be able to escape once the army arrives."
Shen Lian said: "There is no way around this. Beichen is very cunning and decisive. He will not wait until the army approaches. I went there alone and my power is limited. I can only disgust him and destroy his plan." , but apart from that, there is no way to annihilate them."
"But your majesty can rest assured that Nanzhao is of great significance to the Beidou Society. Now that they have to give up Nanzhao, it will be a huge blow to them!"
"Moreover, I have already obtained a lot of clues. I believe that one day..."
Shen Lian's eyes flashed and he said calmly: "I will destroy it myself!"
Li Shimin nodded slightly when he heard Shen Lian's confident words.
He said: "I believe you."
"But don't worry, the Beidou Club has been an organization for many years. It took them hundreds of years to achieve the strength it has today."
