Chapter 1578: Feng Lianyi’s Hidden Agenda II

Feng Lianqing paused. He couldn’t help but think of Feng Lianyi’s behavior some time ago. He pursed his lips and answered honestly.

“Master, Feng Lianyi… She had caused trouble some time ago.”

Tian Ya stopped in his tracks and frowned. His smile slowly disappeared.

“What happened?”

“Actually…”

After a moment of silence, Feng Lianqing finally told Tian Ya everything that Feng Lianyi had done.

When he surrept.i.tiously raised his eyes, he saw that Tian Ya’s old face had suddenly turned cold.

“Master…” Feng Lianqing felt uneasy. “That was Lianyi’s first mistake, so can we give her another chance? I have asked her to apologize, and she listened to me, so I guess she’s already changed. After all, everyone makes mistakes, and the most important thing is that you learn from it and are willing to change.”

He would not deceive his master, so he could not lie just for Feng Lianyi’s sake.

But, Feng Lianyi was his childhood friend, and they had grown up together. So he would naturally speak up for her.

Since Feng Lianyi was willing to change, what was the harm in giving her one more chance? The most detestable kind of person was one who knew his mistakes but refused to change.

Tian Ya’s face remained cold as he looked at Feng Lianqing. “You know… Nothing can be accomplished without norms.”

Feng Lianqing understood what Tian Ya was trying to say. He trembled and bit his lips. “But Master, Lianyi didn’t mean it this time, she did it because of me… If Master wants to punish, then just punish me.”

Tian Ya sneered. “Lianqing, I know you don’t like to lie, so you told me the truth. Do you think I’m a fool? If she did it for you, she could have taken all the blame on herself; maybe I could still believe that she really wanted the best for you. But now, why did she let an innocent man take the blame?”

He was the emperor in Liu Yun Kingdom, and the rules there were strict, especially to those courtiers who were not allowed to make any mistakes.

Now he was General Tian Ya of Wu Shang City.

The rules for the army were more strict. Otherwise, how could he control so many people?

If it was someone else who had made such a mistake… He might still forgive that person.

But this time, that person was Feng Lianyi. If he did not strictly punish his men, how can the people respect him as a general?

“Lianqing, I have no children here…” Tianya’s gaze was stern. “So, I am raising you as an heir, and sooner or later, I will have to leave this place and go home. But you… You are too soft and too easy to forgive people. A soft heart man is not suitable for the position that I hold today.”

A person who was too soft was easily pinned down by those around him. As a general, he needed to be thick-faced and selfless.

This was what he had taught the people of the Nalan family back then.

Now Feng Lianqing wanted him to defend somebody who had violated the law?

Ridiculous! How could he do such a thing!

“Lianyi has to be punished…” Tian Ya sighed. “Do you know why I’m strict with Lianyi but soft with that girl, Yue’er?”

Feng Lianqing looked up in surprise, “Because of love and responsibility?”

After all, Lianyi was from General Manor, and Helian Yue was the Helian family’s young lady, so naturally, Master would not be too strict with Helian Yue.

“What love and responsibility, that’s all bulls.h.i.+t!” Tian Ya smiled coldly. “Feng Lianyi seems like a straightforward and harmless girl, but in reality, she must be strictly disciplined. She was quite innocent when she was young, but we can see her real character as she grows up. So, if she is not strictly disciplined, she will start acting recklessly.”
