Chapter 127
After hearing Shen Yi's answer, the two inner guards stood up, looked at Shen Yi, and smiled: "In this way, the matter is clear, let's find a place, the young master writes out this poem in its entirety, and our brothers hand it in." , explain the whole story to the superiors, and the errand will be finished."

The other inner guard also smiled and said, "Master Shen, please, our brothers will go find you pens, inks, papers and inkstones."

"No need."

Shen Yi took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve, on which the poem had already been copied, he handed the paper over, and said, "I have already copied it."

The two inner guards took it over and took a look, only to see that five words were added after the original two poems.

"Mingyue people heartbroken."

In this era, there are not many people who can read, and even fewer can understand the deep meaning of poems. Even those who work in inner guards can at most know some characters, and it is impossible to have deep literary attainments. He looked at it carefully, then put the paper into his bosom, smiled at Shen Yi and said: "Then our brother will hand in this thing."

Shen Yi took a deep breath, took a step forward and said, "I will definitely cooperate with the two big brothers if you have any requests. I can now work with the two inner guards."

The two looked at each other, then shook their heads in unison at Shen Yi and said, "Young Master Shen misunderstood, the superior only asked us to investigate this matter clearly, and did not let us arrest anyone."

The inner guard smiled at Shen Yi and said: "Besides, since Mr. Shen is a scholar, the inner guard can't take people easily. Anyway, the young master will take an exam in the capital and will not leave the capital in a short time. You don't have to go back with us today. Just need to leave an address."

As he said that, the inner guard glanced at the rented yard behind Shen Yi, and asked, "Does the young master live here?"

Shen Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes, I live here."

Actually, he doesn't live here.

But where he lives is somewhat sensitive.

Because he is now living in the Prince Jin's Mansion, that is, the emperor's uncle's house. Originally, this matter was purely because of poetry, but if it was involved in the Prince Jin Mansion, it might cause some misunderstandings if it was passed to the emperor's ears by the inner guards. .

What's more, that Prince Jin didn't know about Shen Yi's residence in Prince Jin's mansion. If Prince Jin was somehow involved, not only would the matter become complicated, but the Prince Jin who had never met might also be involved. not happy.

The two inner guards nodded, and one of them cupped their hands at Shen Yi, and said, "That's all for today. Don't run around here, sir, maybe someone from above will ask you for questioning."

Shen Yi cupped his hands to return the gift, and asked, "I don't know the names of the two elder brothers?"

Hearing this sentence, the two inner guards were a little surprised.

Because scholars have always looked down on people.

This kind of contempt is not limited to a certain class, but looks down on any class other than scholars. Some scholars who are a little bewildered even look down on the emperor who does not study, thinking that the emperor is illiterate.

The industry of inner guard is naturally also within the range that scholars look down upon.

Normal scholars, even if they have contact with inner guards, rarely ask for their names.

Asking for the name means that there is some friendship.

The two inner guards looked at each other again, then smiled slightly, and saluted Shen Yi with fists together.

"A lowly name is not worth mentioning, but it's a big deal in Xia Qi."

Another taller inner guard also clasped his fists, and his voice was like thunder: "I'm Zhao Ge."

Shen Yi lowered his head slightly and said: "These two big brothers have been busy these few days. When this matter is over, if the younger brother is still free, he must invite the two big brothers to dinner."

"Good to say."

Qi Dayou smiled heartily, and said: "Our Da Chen, there is no precedent for being convicted of speech, even if there is, it will not be a serious crime. Mr. Shen has a brilliant literary talent, and he will go to high school in the future. My brother will definitely come to congratulate him."

After speaking, the two inner guards turned and left.

Both of them were tall, and soon walked into a corner and disappeared from Shen Yi's field of vision. After walking into an alley, Qi Dayou stopped, looked back at his partner, and said, "We are right Mr. Shen, who knows too little about it, just report it like this, and the higher-ups will probably ask us to check his heels."

"Ah."

Zhao Ge nodded and said: "Before you report him, you need to find out his background."

…………

at night.

Deqing Hall of the Imperial Palace.

The Deqing Palace is the emperor's palace, and the Deqing Palace is brightly lit at the moment.

His Majesty the Emperor did not sleep peacefully, but sat in front of the table, which was full of papers.

This is the document recently sent by the Council of the Ministry of Education.

After the official opening of the court on the Shangyuan Festival, His Majesty the Emperor, who has turned 16, has slowly begun to take over the affairs of the court. The prime ministers don't know whether they want to train the young emperor or give the little emperor a chance. Dismounted, or accumulated too much official business during the half-month holiday of the Chinese New Year, there are hundreds of documents sent over every day in the past two days, and at first glance, it seems that they are all things that need to be dealt with by the emperor. Very "reasonable".

Just like that, the little emperor, who just started working in the new year, already had a lot of urgent documents piled up on his desk, forcing His Majesty the emperor to work overtime late at night.

But this is not surprising.

In fact, every emperor who wants to make a difference, or a "Mingjun", working overtime is the norm.

Without the attribute of "workaholic", it is difficult to be a serious and wise ruler. Even if he was a wise ruler at the beginning of his ascension, he will slack off after a few years.

Of course, His Majesty the current emperor is still full of energy, lying on the table, carefully reading through the books one by one.

The great eunuch, Gao Ming, came in with a bowl of hot soup, placed it carefully in the little emperor's hand, then slightly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, drink some hot soup to warm your body."

Hearing this, the little emperor put down the document in his hand, frowned and said, "There are too many broken things."

While picking up the hot soup, he snorted and said, "It's likely that the old men in the meeting hall deliberately made things difficult for me. In just a few days, I have piled up so many documents here!"

Gao Ming glanced at the hundreds of documents piled on the table, and sighed inwardly.

As the chief eunuch next to the emperor, he was very aware of the usual workload of the prime ministers. In fact, the few prime ministers in the Zhongshu Provincial Assembly Hall did not make things difficult for the emperor, but just sent all the documents that should be sent.

Seeing His Majesty the emperor who was frowning, Gao Ming suddenly thought of the news that the inner guard had just sent him. He bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the court affairs cannot be dealt with in one day. It is late at night today, and the rest It’s not too late to deal with it tomorrow.”

"No, most likely there will be work for tomorrow."

His Majesty the Emperor looked at these documents and said, "If I can't handle these things well, how will I recover the rivers and mountains in the future?"

Eunuch Gao knelt down beside the emperor, lowered his head slightly, and said with a natural smile: "Your Majesty is a generation of British lords, and he will definitely regain his homeland in the future."

Speaking of this, Eunuch Gao seemed to suddenly think of something, and said: "By the way, Your Majesty, the inner guard has already investigated the matter you asked the inner guard to investigate last time."

"Inside guard?"

The little emperor frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Obviously, he had completely put that matter behind him and completely forgotten about it.

"The matter of the poem at the Shangyuan Poetry Club."

Eunuch Gao reminded with a smile: "Your Majesty, please find out who wrote that poem."

"Oh."

The little emperor patted his head: "I remembered."

He looked at Gao Ming and asked, "Have you checked it out? Who wrote it?"

"It's a boy student named Shen Yi, from Jiangdu Prefecture, who came to the capital to take the exam."

The emperor nodded casually: "Then it's up to you to do this, and in my name, reward him with something."

Eunuch Gao lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this Shen Yi...seems to live in Prince Jin's residence."

"Ok?"

The emperor raised his head, glanced at Gao Ming, and frowned slightly.

"Uncle Prince Jin's residence?"
