Chapter 147 Yiyi Looking North
For Shen Yi, business or making money is a tool to help him do things in the future. Although it is a bit difficult to start now, he has to do it.

Because no one knows the importance of money better than Shen Yi.

Throughout the ages, from countless major events in the courts of the past dynasties to the rise and fall of ordinary businesses, there is a hidden line called economy behind it.

And if Shen Yi wanted to do something in this world and accomplish something at the same time, he naturally couldn't do without money, and he needed a lot of money.

Being an official requires money, running a country requires money, and training troops and fighting wars all require money.

Of course, the latter few things have nothing to do with Shen Yi now, but Shen Yi wants to be an official in the future, and at the same time make some achievements in his own office, and he can't do without money, so he will do it at this time. Start doing economic accumulation.

But no matter when, doing business can only be an auxiliary, so it is impossible for Shen Yi to put all his thoughts on Xu Fu and others. After explaining a few important things to Xu Fu, he returned to the Jin Palace I went to see my father.

In the next few days, Shen Yi slept soundly for a few days in the guest room of Prince Jin's Mansion, and did not go out.

Because I was really tired during this period, and the exam was very exhausting, so I needed a few days of rest.

In the guest room of Prince Jin's Mansion, both the bed and the quilt are the best things in Jiankang City, so they are naturally comfortable to sleep on.

On the morning of the fourth day, after three days of sleep, Shen Yi stretched out and got up, when he heard a noise outside his guest room. When he got closer, he heard that it was a group of servants from the palace. Saluting to the eldest son Li Mu.

The sound is close, so Li Mu, the son of King Jin, will naturally not be too far away. After Shen Yi pushed open the door, he saw that Li Mu was only ten steps away from the door of his own room. He tidied up his clothes, stepped forward He bowed to Li Mu and saluted: "I have seen His Royal Highness."

Li Mu stretched out his hand to help Shen Yi up, with a complicated expression on his face: "My family, you don't have to be polite."

Shen Yi didn't intend to be polite either. After he got up, he first looked up at Li Mu, and then lowered his head slightly again: "What's your Highness, just send someone over to call me. How dare His Highness come to you personally..."

Although a person like Li Mu does not have a position in Jiankang City, his status has been naturally superior since he was born, and he will not have nothing to do on weekdays, let alone come to Shen Yi's place when he is idle.

In fact, it has been nearly two months since Shen Yi lived in Prince Jin's Mansion. In these two words, apart from the one time with Eunuch Gao Ming, Shen Yi has only seen this Highness once or twice.

Shen Yi knew very well that he was not that important, so Li Mu came to look for him, of course there was something to do.

"It was originally my home, and there was nothing to do without work."

Li Mu looked at Shen Yi, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Shen, have you finished the examination? How did you get the result?"

"Thank you, son, for your concern."

With a calm face, Shen Qilang replied: "The test is not bad."

Shizi smiled at Shen Yi, then pointed to a pavilion not far away, and said, "Let's sit down and talk."

Shen Yi lowered his hands, followed behind Li Mu, walked into the pavilion and sat down. At this time, Jiankang had already entered spring, the weather was getting warmer, and the spring breeze was gentle, making it very comfortable to blow on his body.

After the two of them sat down, Li Mu looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Mr. Shen recently wrote another poem?"

Shen Yi was taken aback for a moment, lowered his head and thought about it seriously, then shook his head and said: "I have never written poetry, but if I insist on writing poetry, I finished the college exam a few days ago and got together with my classmates in the academy. After drinking too much, I read randomly. Two remaining sentences."

Prince Jin's son looked at Shen Yi with a slightly complicated expression.

"That's probably the two broken sentences."

Shen Yi frowned, looked at Li Mu, and asked, "Your Highness, what happened?"

"It should be yesterday afternoon..."

Li Mu lowered his eyebrows and said, "Two new couplets are hung at the entrance of a house in the east of the city."

He looked at Shen Yi, and said slowly: "The first couplet is, the spring breeze is green on the south bank of the river."

Hearing this, Shen Yi already understood what happened, he said helplessly: "Then the next couplet should be when Mingyue returned it to me."

Li Mu nodded slightly, and sighed slowly: "It seems that Mr. Shen wrote it."

He looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Mr. Shen, did your ancestors also come from the south?"

Shen Yi shook his head slightly: "It shouldn't be. According to Jiangdu's genealogy, my family has been from Jiangdu for several generations, but my grandfather's family seems to be from Nandu."

Shen Yi's mother died young, and his grandfather's family lived far away. Without the bond of his mother, he didn't have a particularly deep connection with his relatives on his grandfather's side.

"rare."

Li Mu clapped his hands and said, "It's not the descendants of Nandu who can write such poems..."

Shen Yi was a little curious, he asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, this couplet probably means missing the hometown in the south of the Yangtze River, not the north."

"This couplet also has a banner."

The prince looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "This banner is four words."

"Yiyi look north."

Hearing this, Shen Yi already understood the cause and effect of the matter in his heart. It was probably because Chen Changming, a "descendant of Nandu", was too emotional, so he engraved couplets and plaques on Shen Yi's poems.Hanging at the door of your house.

It is worth mentioning that if Chen Changming did it, it means that the family of Chen Changming has a house in Jiankang...

Proper little rich man.

"In Jiankang City, there are many descendants of Nandu, especially some old people in their 80s and [-]s. After seeing this couplet, they all cried secretly. Some sat at the door of this family, crying loudly."

"To this day, this couplet has slowly spread in Jiankang City."

Li Mu looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "No matter who it is, ask this family who wrote the couplets. This family only has four characters."

"Jiangdu Shen Yi."

Having said that, Li Mu stretched out his hand and patted Shen Yi's shoulder, his expression still complicated: "Young Master Shen, I'm afraid you will be famous again in Jiankang."

Shen Yi was silent for a while, and then said: "These two broken sentences are indeed from my mouth, but after all, the four words Yiyibeiwang are refreshing, and I can't completely say it's me..."

Before Shen Yi finished speaking, His Royal Highness shook his head, signaling Shen Yi not to continue.

"I don't mean to blame you, I just came here to make sure, Mr. Shen, you wrote these two poems very well."

Li Mu sighed: "It's so good that when my father and king met, they almost had a plaque hung in the main hall of the palace."

60 years ago when Sejong traveled south, about one million people followed Emperor Sejong from the north to Jiangnan, and resettled in Jiankang and near Jiankang.

Among the 100 million people, the largest number is the surname Li, which is the clan of Chen Guo.

In other words, among so many Nandu families, the Li family is the largest Nandu family.

The ancestors of Lord Jin were also in the north, and when they saw the sentence "When will the bright moon shine on me", King Jin would inevitably have some sympathy in his heart.

Speaking of this, Li Mu looked at Shen Yi and said slowly: "My father's cautious character has such an impulsiveness. If His Majesty the emperor in the palace sees this couplet..."

Speaking of this, Li Mu's tone was a little emotional: "But he is the emperor, for the sake of generality, he can't hang this couplet."

Shen Yi sat opposite Shizi, bowed his head and thought for a while, then shook his head slightly.

"Your Highness, I wrote these two broken sentences in a moment of anger because I was angry with some Qi people a few days ago. There is really no other meaning..."
