"Yes!"

Soon the servants laid out the four treasures of the study. Without a second thought, Wan Lianxing picked up his pen and wrote an imperial edict, then handed it to the people around him and said, "Post it on the street for everyone to see!"

When the person who took the imperial edict saw it, his legs instantly went weak and he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, why did you write an edict of repentance? This...this..." The servant only saw the three words "edict of repentance" and dared not read any more. He could not think of what fault the emperor, who was diligent in state affairs and loved his people like his own children, could have committed to require a edict of repentance!

Sui Dan was the first to rush forward and snatch the imperial edict from the man's hand.

Seeing this, the usually heartless Sui Dan was a little shocked. "It really is a confession of guilt... Sui Cong, you are really impressive. You forced the emperor to write a confession of guilt right after you came back! You can brag about it in front of us for the rest of your life. If I had known that I would run away from home with you that day, is my name on this confession of guilt too?"

The follower has a good relationship with Sui Dan, but no matter how he looks at Sui Dan, he thinks Sui Dan is a fool. He was driven away by Wan Lianxing, not running away from home. One is active and the other is passive, there is a big difference between the two!

Ever since Wan Lianxing ascended the throne, he has had outstanding political achievements, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and he has never made any mistakes. As for the edict of repentance, today is the first one!

The attendant was also a little surprised. He thought Wan Lianxing would first use some sweet words to coax him, and if that didn't work, he would use some tough measures to suppress him. This confession of guilt was beyond the attendant's expectations. She was curious about how Wan Lianxing repented, "What does it say?"

"Write about how he has wronged you as a brother, and how you have been forced to wander outside and suffer all kinds of grievances. Anyway, these are the words of the emperor condemning himself. If you don't believe me, read for yourself!" Sui Dan handed the edict to his entourage.

When the followers saw the edict of confession of guilt, the anger in their hearts was extinguished at once. Wan Lianxing's words were earnest and his attitude was sincere. Every sentence he said expressed his guilt towards his followers. Not a single word was perfunctory. It was so sincere that it was impossible for the followers not to be moved.

He stuffed Wan Lianxing's confession into his arms and said sternly, "Wan Lianxing, I'll keep this confession for you. If you do something that hurts your brothers again, I will announce this confession to the world and let everyone in the world see how treacherous you are."

Wan Lianxing knew that the follower felt wronged and resented him. Back then, the follower could not tolerate Huang Chenming and instigated Sui Dan to kill Huang Chenming to silence him. Now, looking back at today, the fault was also on the follower. However, thinking about the years of brotherhood, Wan Lianxing always felt guilty for the angry words he said to drive the follower away. "Follower, I know you resent me and blame me in your heart, but don't worry, I will compensate you for all the grievances you have suffered! If you break this oath, the court will be in turmoil and the country will be in danger!"

Wan Lianxing not only wrote a confession of guilt, but also swore on his country and the people, and also wanted to compensate his followers. However, the followers did not want any compensation. They only wanted Wan Lianxing to admit his mistakes. "I don't need any compensation from you! But you have to recognize your mistakes!"

In order to appease the resentment of his followers, the flexible Wan Lianxing showed his utmost sincerity, first decisively wrote a confession of guilt, and then swore an oath. No matter who was right or wrong in the past, Wan Lianxing believed that it was his own fault. He wanted to make it known to the world so that his followers would be willing to stay by his side. He, Wan Lianxing, never treated anyone who followed him unfairly or wronged him, let alone the followers who worked hard for him.

But the follower still felt it was not enough, so Wan Lianxing had to say: "I was wrong, I apologize to you for what happened that year!"

There were not only a few of them in the room at this time, there were also other ministers and soldiers. Many people didn't know the origin of this follower. Seeing Wan Lianxing confessing his sins and swearing an oath, and finally humbled himself and told his followers that he was wrong, it was weird, too weird!

For a moment, the strange atmosphere in the room made everyone nervous and cautious. They wanted to escape from here and didn't want to hear anything they shouldn't hear. However, curiosity was at work, and their eyes kept roaming around Wan Lianxing and his attendant. They also wanted to see if this man could force the emperor into this state. It was well known that Wan Lianxing loved talents, but to make Wan Lianxing give in again and again, could this dead-eyed attendant have any great ability?

Thinking about how Zhao Guangyi's head was taken without anyone noticing, everyone nodded silently in their hearts. The follower was definitely a capable person. No wonder Wan Lianxing could humble himself again and again. This was indeed an attitude of seeking talents.

At this time, Sui Xin, who was sitting on the side, couldn't stand it anymore: "Sui Cong, you can do it. We all know that you are wronged and you are unhappy, but we won't bring up the past again. If we do, you will be unreasonable. Don't you know how much the emperor has loved you for so many years?"

Suiying agreed after hearing what he said, "That's right. The emperor is biased. He has been leaning towards you for so many years. Let's not talk about anything else. Let's just talk about how many times the emperor has whipped us. As for you, when has the emperor ever punished you severely? You left in anger and it's been four years since you left. Now you're finally back. Look how hard the emperor has forced us. We have to confess our sins and swear an oath. In the end, we have to bow our heads and admit our mistakes in front of so many people. The emperor is here, and we brothers are here. If the emperor is gone, who will spoil you and coax you? Don't be like a nagging woman. It's enough to be like this. We all know what happened back then. Suixin is right, and you are wrong. Now I have a chance for you to redeem yourself and make meritorious service. Hurry up and go to the enemy's camp to see how many ferocious beasts there are."

The attendant looked at Suiying, who was covered in gauze all over his body, and looked like a dumpling. It seemed that this person's only good thing was his mouth. The attendant was somewhat gloating, "Suiying, the wolves, tigers and leopards should bite your mouth the most!"

"why?"

"The only thing that's superfluous about you is your mouth!"

Suiying rolled his eyes and immediately fought back: "Oh, you think I'm too sharp-tongued, but the emperor appreciates my mouth the most."

Yes, how could the emperor not like him? Suiying said what Wan Lianxing liked to hear, and often he could speak for Wan Lianxing. Some things that Wan Lianxing was not convenient to say could be said through Suiying's mouth. How could you say that this person was inseparable from Wan Lianxing?

His followers were straightforward. They did things willingly without asking anyone to say anything. If it was not his own wish, no one could force him to do it. All the things like making up for one's crime with merit, rewards and punishments, and rules were meaningless in the eyes of his followers.

All his life, he regarded fame, wealth and power as dirt; these things were worthless in his eyes.

The reason he appeared here was because he was concerned about these people. Half a month ago, he got some news from the palace of Dalang Kingdom. This news was very unfavorable to Wan Lianxing, so he rushed from Bian Jing to deliver a letter to Wan Lianxing.
