Chapter 188 The Advantages and Disadvantages of Fame
This time, Shen Yi stayed in Mr. Gu's study for about an hour.

Mr. Gu's lectures were very detailed. He not only pointed out some mistakes and omissions in Shen Yi's essay, but also pointed out some directions for writing the essay and some details to pay attention to, which made Shen Yi extremely admired.

After explaining the mistakes and omissions, he gave Shen Yi a few more policy topics, and Shen Yi was still limited to hand them in within three days.

After Shen Yi put away the topic of the Three Strategies, he admired the old man in front of him very much. Before leaving, he couldn't help but bowed his hands to the old man and said: "Mr. Childhood education?"

"A Confucian who studies Confucian classics?"

Mr. Gu smiled dumbly, and said: "You are young, how do you know that this old man can be compared to a great Confucian?"

Shen Yi lowered his head slightly and said: "My teacher Ji Zhonggong is the head of the Ganquan Academy and a great Confucian in Jiangzuo. Although it is disrespectful to talk about elders, listening to Mr. Lu's lectures is no different from listening to Mr. Lu's lectures, so the students said Your knowledge is comparable to that of a great Confucianist..."

"Jizhong...Lu Anshi."

Mr. Gu nodded, thoughtfully: "Yes, Lu Anshi and Zhao Zhi are friends, and you are Lu Anshi's disciple."

He smiled and said: "Your teacher, I met him in the early years. He was a little dazed when he was young, and he didn't look very smart. I never thought that in ten or twenty years, he would become a great Confucian."

Speaking of this, Mr. Gu looked at Shen Yi with his hands behind his back, with a look of sadness in his eyes: "The old man doesn't dare to be a great Confucian or a Confucian, the reason why he is here to teach and learn..."

He sighed, and said, "It's just returning home without face."

"All right."

He looked at Shen Yi, and said: "It's nothing, you can go back first, and then..."

The old man glanced at Shen Yi, frowned and said: "It seems that Zhao Zhi didn't make it clear to you. I came to the old man to ask for advice. I want to bring a pot of wine. You didn't bring it the first time, and you didn't bring it this time. Come again next time." ..."

He stretched out three fingers with a serious face: "At least three jugs of wine, otherwise the old man won't say a word to you."

Shen Yi smiled hoarsely, nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, sir, ten jugs of wine are also required."

"That's good."

Old man Gu smiled casually: "The old man still has those children to teach, so I won't send you off, you can go on your own."

Shen Yi bowed his hands again and left Old Man Gu's private school.

After walking out of the private school, Shen Yi put a few pieces of paper with policy topics in his sleeves. After hesitating for a moment, he walked towards the Prince Jin's Mansion in Beicheng.

After arriving at Prince Jin's Mansion, he did not go through the main entrance, but entered Prince Jin's Mansion through the back door unimpeded. After arriving at Prince Jin's Mansion, he first went to visit his father Shen Zhang.

During this period of time, Shen Yi was alone outside, but he actually caused a lot of troubles, including the incident that he met the emperor and splashed the princess of Northern Qi's tea, but he didn't tell Shen Zhang.

Firstly, he didn't want Shen Zhang to worry, and secondly, it was useless to tell him, which would only increase his troubles.

However, Shen Yi hadn't visited Shen Zhang for more than a month because of being stuck in the mud.

Shen Zhang, who was on business in the palace, was very happy to see his son, so he was about to let go of his errands and take his son out for dinner, but Shen Yi did not refuse. At noon, the father and son went to a restaurant on the street outside Jinwang's mansion.

Shen Zhang has always been frugal, but this time he was very generous. He ate eight qian for this meal. Even in Jiankang, he can be called a luxury.

When he was almost finished eating, Shen Yi stopped his chopsticks and smiled at Shen Zhang: "Father, my son recently found a gentleman in Jiankang. The husband is very knowledgeable and teaches well. If my son is lucky this year Some, maybe they will be hit."

Shen Zhang paused with his chopsticks, then looked up at Shen Yi, a little unhappy: "Apprenticeship is a big deal, and it's fine in Jiangdu Prefecture. Since it's in Jiankang, why didn't you inform Weifu? Weifu should go buy some Things, ready to repair, come to the door and thank this gentleman.”

"I don't have a serious apprenticeship. I was introduced by an elder in the academy."

Shen Yi smiled and said, "Father, don't worry, I'm not being rude."

The Shen family is poor.

But the poor family is also a "family", and it can be regarded as a noble family. Even though Shen Zhang's lineage is already very down-and-out, they still pay attention to etiquette.

Shen Zhang nodded, and said, "In this case, as a father, I will not interfere with your affairs. Remember to respect your husband and treat him as an elder."

Shen Yi nodded and replied with a smile: "Understood."

After the father and son finished their meal and left the restaurant, Shen Zhang looked in the direction of Prince Jin's mansion, then looked back at his son, and asked, "Is Yi'er going somewhere this afternoon?"

"some."

Shen Yi lowered his head and said with a smile: "A few days ago, the prince went to his son's residence and invited him to have dinner, but the son was going to visit the teacher that day, so he postponed it until today. In the afternoon, the son went to ask the prince to see the prince, and in the evening, we will be together with him. Go out and have a meal."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, Shen Zhang's face changed. He turned his head and stared at Shen Yi with wide eyes, and he couldn't speak smoothly: "Yes...it's the Prince Jin's Mansion..."

Shen Yi smiled and nodded: "It's the son of Prince Jin."

Shen Zhang widened his eyes again.

"Since you have made an appointment with your son, after you arrive at the Prince Jin's mansion today, you should go to see your son!"

He blew his beard and stared: "I haven't explained it to my father, our father and son just came out of the Jin Palace, let the son know, and say that our Shen family is not polite!"

Shen Zhang has been working in Prince Jin's Mansion for more than ten years.

In his eyes, Jin Wang's family is aloof and inviolable existence!

But in Shen Yi's eyes, Jin Wang's family...although they are remarkable, they are not particularly remarkable.

Whether it's family power or friendship value, Li Mu, the heir of the Jin Dynasty, is a little worse than Zhang Jian, who was born in a prime minister.

Besides, Shen Yi has even met the emperor... let alone a prince?
So, he smiled at his father and said, "Father, no matter how important the son is, it's not as important as your old man, is it?"

"Don't worry, I will go to see the prince later."

Shen Zhang looked at his calm and breezy son, and after calming down a little, he sighed slowly: "Forget it, you are growing up and reading a lot, so being a father may not be able to teach you, you just look at it yourself." Just do it."

Shen Yi nodded with a smile, and accompanied his father back to the backyard of Prince Jin's Mansion, then he left from the back door of Prince Jin's Mansion, and after a long walk, he came to the small gate of the main entrance of Prince Jin's Mansion, and handed a greeting to the concierge of Prince Jin's Mansion.

"Thank you for your trouble, Jiang Du Shen Yi is begging to see your son."

……

About an hour later, Shen Yi and his eldest son Li Mu sat opposite each other at the Yueyue Building by the Qinhuai River.

Li Mu looked at Shen Yi who was sitting in front of him, and said with a smile: "You and I have a long relationship, and until today, we have really sat down and had a meal with Qilang."

Speaking of this, he said with emotion on his face: "Speaking of it, Qilang may not believe it. You are now in Jiankang City, but you are a famous celebrity. Many people heard that you lived in my house before, and they all inquired about me. Here, I must treat you to a meal."

Shen Yi shook his head very humbly: "My son is joking, Shen Yi has no achievements and no reputation, how can he be a celebrity in Jiankang?"

Li Mu smiled: "You even beat the princess of Northern Qi, and you are still safe and sound. How can you say you are nameless?"

Pointing to his nose, he said with a smile: "If I hit Princess Qi Ren, I would probably be in prison in the Zongfu now."

Having said that, Prince Jin smiled.

"However, this matter may not be all good for Qilang."

Shen Yi stopped his chopsticks, looked at Li Mu, and asked, "Where did your son start talking about this?"

Li Mu picked up his wine glass, touched Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Cui Yu, the prime minister of the Cui family in Jiankang, was dismissed because of Qilang you just two years ago. Hong, I'm looking for you everywhere in Jiankang City right now, looking for trouble with Qilang."
