Chapter 186 The appearance of a traitor!

Shen Yi went to a private school.

He was educated at a young age in a private school in Jiangdu City. His father Shen Zhang took him to find the private school when he returned to Jiangdu. Shen Yi was educated at the age of seven and studied in the private school for six or seven years. Enter Ganquan Academy to study.

The gentleman who taught Shen Yi back then was about the same age as the old man in front of him, and the scene in the private school may be the same as the private school Shen Yi attended back then!
Shen Yi took a deep breath, took out the letter written by Zhao Shilang again, and after confirming the address, he mustered up his courage and walked towards the old man who was shaking his head.

Zhao Shilang, as the top boss in the court, should not coax him to play no matter what...

With this in mind, Shen Yi came to the old man, bowed slightly to the old man, lowered his head and said, "Dare to ask, is it Mr. Gu?"

The old man looked over 60 years old. Hearing this, he glanced up at Shen Yi, then stood up from the chair, stretched himself, turned around and told the students to read by themselves, and then walked out. After walking outside, the old man Looking Shen Yi up and down, he shook his head slightly: "Are you over sixteen?"

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously: "Yes, it's not long after the sixteenth."

"That would be a pity."

The old man lazily said: "This old man doesn't accept students over 16 years old. Where did you come from?"

Obviously, the old man misunderstood.

Shen Yi was not angry either, he smiled at the old man, and asked, "Old man, is your surname Gu Ba?"

"nonsense."

Old man Gu gave Shen Yi a blank look, and said angrily, "You've come here, and you still don't know what the old man's last name is?"

Only then did Shen Yi reach out, and took out the "letter of introduction" written by Zhao Changping from his bosom, handed it in front of old man Gu, lowered his head slightly and said, "Sir, this is a letter from my uncle to Mr., please read it."

Old man Gu frowned slightly, but still reached out to take the letter. After pulling out the letter paper, he read it up and down, then put away the letter, looked at Shen Yi silently, and asked, "So it was Zhao Zhi who asked you to come here."

Zhao Changping's original name was Zhao Zhi, and Changping was his nickname.

It's just that Zhao Shilang has been on the rise these years, and not many people dare to call him by his first and last name in person. Even if it is the word Changping, others will probably add a word, or Brother Changping, or Duke Changping.

And the fact that the old man in front of him can directly call "Zhao Zhi" means that no matter what his abilities are, at least his seniority must be higher than Zhao Shilang.

Shen Yi lowered his head and said, "Uncle Zhao sent the junior here."

"It seems that you are going to take the provincial examination. Tsk, I can't see that you are already a student at your age."

"Just a fluke."

Old man Gu put away Zhao Changping's letter, put it in his arms, then looked at Shen Yi, and said slowly: "Zhao Zhi has become a big official over the years, so I have to give him some face, boy, you can come with me."

After all, the old man turned and left, and Shen Yi could only follow behind him, all the way into the little old man's study room, the old man sat on the chair, ignored Shen Yi, but picked up a few pieces of paper, picked up a brush and started brushing write.

Shen Yi was a little curious, so he stepped up and saw this Mr. Gu writing a few lines of chic words on the paper.

A gentleman is cautious.

A gentleman is poor.

A gentleman asks for himself.

The old man handed the three pieces of paper to Shen Yi, and said lightly: "Three essays, go back and write them first, and send them to the old man in three days. After the old man has read your essays, I will prepare a topic for you."

To be honest, three articles in three days is not particularly intensive, but it is not too low. Compared with Shen Yi's homework intensity in Ganquan Academy last year, it is a bit higher. With a rather capable appearance, he could only lower his head to accept the three pieces of paper, and said: "Okay, I will come to see you again in three days."

"rare."

Mr. Gu looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "It's rare for such a young student to not be impetuous and willing to settle down to study. From your accent, you should be from Jiangdu Prefecture, a student from Ganquan Academy?"

Shen Yi bowed his head to admit it, and said, "Yes, this junior is a student of Ganquan Academy."

"Then it's no wonder Zhao Zhi treats you so hard."

Old man Gu smiled at Shen Yi, and said, "Zhao Zhi is quite old-fashioned. It's rare to see him take care of someone like this. Since he came from an academy, it's not surprising."

Old man Gu waved his hand and saw off the guests, saying, "Mr. Shen, as a disciple of this old man, three essays in three days is easy, and you have to write three decent essays in three days, otherwise you, a student, this old man will never be able to write." won't teach."

Shen Yi took another deep breath, bowed his head and said, "This junior understands."

Although the three quality essays are not easy for Shen Yi, they are not particularly difficult either.

After getting the "homework", Shen Yi did not leave Dayifang, but continued to stay in Mr. Gu's private school, watching the group of children shaking their heads reading for a while, until he was sure that they were indeed elementary school children, Shen Yi got up and said goodbye to Mr. Gu and left.

Mr. Gu didn't ask to stay either, he just let Shen Yi leave with a "huh".

Shen Yi walked all the way to the entrance of the private school, and then looked back at the private school that didn't even have a name, and murmured in his heart.

"I thought it was either a well-known Confucian in Jiankang, or a Jinshi in the mid-term examination, but I didn't expect it to be just a private school teacher... But Mr. Zhao is a high-ranking man, so he shouldn't be so boring as to lie to me as a junior..."

Thinking of this, Shen Yi obediently took the three pieces of paper and left, and went home to do the questions.

No matter what, it's always good for someone to ask questions. Compared with Shen Yi's self-study, the efficiency is somewhat higher.

At this time, the time has entered May in the sixth year of Hongde, and the weather in Jiankang is getting hotter and hotter. Because it is too hot outside, Shen Yi didn't delay after leaving Dayifang, and went straight home to "do his homework".

………………

While Shen Yi was obediently doing his homework, in the study of Yang Xiangfu in Jiankang, a middle-aged man stood in front of Yang Xiang with his hands down, bowed his head respectfully, and said, "Master Xiang, this is about the case. The temple met with His Majesty, and then sent another manuscript to the palace, and then the palace began to prepare the palace newspaper..."

Yang Xiangguo sat in his seat and said absent-mindedly: "It's this Shen Yi again. Since he entered Jiankang, a series of many things seem to be related to this Jiangdu scholar."

At this time, in Yang Xiangguo's study, there was still a middle-aged man about 40 years old standing, who looked shrewd and capable, with a bit sinister eyes.

He bowed his head respectfully to Yang Jingzong, and said, "Father, if you don't like this person, my son will drive him out of Jiankang for you."

According to the address, this middle-aged man is Yang Jingzong's son.

The most famous second generation in Jiankang City, even Chen Yu, the prefect of Jiangdu, had to do everything possible to please Mr. Yang!

Yang Xiang looked up at his son and frowned: "He is already in the emperor's heart, why do you drive him out of Jiankang?"

"Jane is in the emperor's heart, hey..."

Young Master Yang's tone was somewhat disdainful: "Your Majesty is young, what do you know?"

Yang Xiang squinted his eyes, looked Mr. Yang up and down, and said slowly: "Being a father is about next year, and he will retire and return to his hometown. Now I don't know how many people in Jiankang City have already turned away from our Yang family. , Nizi, if you still don’t know how to restrain yourself, your arrogance today will become a butcher knife around my Yang family’s neck tomorrow!”

Mr. Yang looked at his father and said with a smile: "Father, you are too cautious, even if you don't become the prime minister..."

After arguing halfway, he saw Yang Jingzong's gloomy face, so he quickly stopped talking, lowered his head and said: "Father, what you said is true, my child has remembered it..."

Old Yang Xiangguo nodded silently. He stood up from his chair, looked out of the window, and said slowly: "Although this Shen Yi is young, he can figure out His Majesty's thoughts and blindly flatter and invite pets..."

Yang made his own evaluation to Shen, whom he had never met.

"I already have the appearance of a traitor..."
