"How would you solve this issue?" Yi Zhi asked.
Shen Lian responded, "We have to get rid of her. But she is very good at hiding and it would not be easy to track her down."
Yi Zhi felt a sense of relief. Shen Lian said 'it would not be easy' and not 'it is impossible'.
He asked, "What should I do?"
Shen Lian said, "Guard the nation and console the people. Continue doing what you have been doing and I will take care of the rest."
Yi Zhi retreated after receiving the advice. It was a good thing that Shen Lian did not interfere with his administration. In that way, he could show his aspiration and use this opportunity to cultivate. It was killing two birds with one stone and also fulfilling Shen Lian's promise to him.
