Chapter 211 Pretending to be calm!
In fact, Shen Yi didn't want to move.

Because although the courtyard he lives in is not big, it is more than enough for three people, and there is no urgent need to move, and after Zhao Shilang's teaching, he no longer wants to get too involved with the palace.

After all, the two maids around him are from the palace, if they go to live in the mansion in the palace, it will be difficult to separate them from the palace.

Of course, there is no need to worry about security issues.

Because if His Majesty the Emperor wanted his life, he didn't need to be so troublesome. He only needed one sentence, and the hidden guards in Jiankang City could kill Shen Yi easily and without any trace.

Gao Ming was right.

Since the emperor wanted to show favor, Shen Yi, a small student, had no room to refuse.

He could only send Gao Ming out of the house.He watched Eunuch Gao's sedan chair leave.

After Gao Ming left, Ping'er, who had a somewhat eccentric personality, immediately surrounded her and grabbed Shen Yi's sleeves, her face full of anticipation: "My lord, are we going to move to a big house?"

Just now when Shen Yi and Gao Ming were talking, the two servant girls were waiting on the side, so they naturally listened to the conversation between the two.

Shen Yi glanced at the little girl, and sighed slightly: "Don't think about moving for now, at least we have to wait until we return to Jiankang, since you two want to go back to Jiangdu with me, then pack up quickly After the results are released tomorrow, I will go to bid farewell to the elders of Jiankang. If I don’t win, we will leave immediately and return to Jiangdu after the people from the palace come. Go back again."

It is usually the job of the chief envoys of the provinces to hold a deer-ming banquet for new recruits, but the vicinity of Gyeonggi is under the jurisdiction of the Jiankang Mansion, so the deer-ming banquet is also in charge of the Jiankang Mansion.

But Shen Yi doesn't want to pay attention to these messy things now, he just wants to go back to Jiangdu as soon as possible.

Things in Jiankang City are too complicated, Shen Yi needs to leave the chessboard temporarily, and then calmly re-observe the situation with the eyes of an outsider.

The two little maids responded, and hurried down to pack their things.

And Shen Yi returned to his room, lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

There are two reasons.

The first reason is that tomorrow morning, the Jiankang Township Examination will release the results, and the results of his hard work for half a year will be announced.

The more important reason is that, as a student, Shen Yi is now deeply trapped in the vortex of the political situation, and even for a while, it is difficult to extricate himself from it.

Originally, Shen Yi was very confident that he could have both sides in the imperial court, go smoothly like Wei Xiaobao, and then make a fortune, but when the matter developed until now, Shen Yi suddenly realized his naivety in politics.

This is Shen Yi's shortcoming.

He has never experienced court, and although he knows the interests of people, he is not sensitive to politics, and even takes it lightly.

He tossed and turned in his own bed, thinking hard for a long time, and when he finally closed his eyes and fell asleep, it was already the middle of the night.

If you go to bed late, you won't wake up early.

So the next morning, Shen Yi was woken up by the little maid Ping'er.

Ping'er sat beside Shen Yi's bed, first stared at the sleeping Shen Yi for a long time, then gently pushed Shen Yi, with a soft voice: "Young master, the list is released today."

Shen Yi was not a heavy sleeper. After being pushed, he woke up in a daze. After being dazed for a while, he saw Pinger sitting beside his bed, so someone Shen rubbed his eyes, and then Looking at the already bright sky outside the window, he said in a daze, "What time is it?"

Ping'er sat beside Shen Yi's bed, and said softly: "Young master, it's almost time. People watch the rankings and get up before dawn. How can you be so tired and lazy?"

Shen Yi let out a "huh", looked at the sky outside the window again, lay back on the bed, and closed his eyes.

"Since you can't catch up, then there is no need to rush. If you hit the mark, someone will come to announce the good news in a while."

After all, he will lie down and continue to sleep.

When Ping'er heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled: "Then, Sister Qing'er and I need to prepare some money, and when the good news arrives later, we can save it for the reward."

"Go and go."

Shen Yi closed his eyes, feeling extremely sleepy: "Young master is really sleepy, no matter whether you hit or not, don't make any noise."

Because she slept too late last night, after saying this, Shen Yi fell on the bed and fell asleep soundly.

The two little maids had no choice but to give up on waking Shen Yi up, and continued to pack things in the yard and do some of their own things.

When it was close to noon, Shen Yi's courtyard door was knocked by a hasty knock.

The two little maids looked at each other. Although they were a little scared, they still came to the gate of the courtyard. The two little girls first glanced out through the crack of the door, and then asked cautiously, "Who?"

"Is Junior Brother Shen at home?"

Outside is the voice of a young man.

Ping'er glanced outside through the crack of the door, and after confirming that there were a group of scholars outside, she boldly lowered the latch, opened the courtyard door, and saw a young man outside the door.

Qing'er was more courageous, stepped forward and saluted, "Master, my young master is taking a nap, may I ask..."

Qing'er looked at the young scholar, then at the five or six scholars behind him, and asked in a low voice, "May I ask who you are?"

The young master looked at Shen Yi's two maids, and said with a smile: "Please inform me, my surname is Chen and my name is Changming."

After Chen Changming finished speaking, an older student from Ganquan Academy behind him burst into laughter and said, "I said why Junior Brother Shen hasn't been seen for several months, so it's Jinwu Zangjiao!"

Someone else joked: "Junior Brother Shen succeeded in the first test, but still pretends to be sleeping at home, it's really hateful!"

Even the honest Chen Changming couldn't help but echoed with a smile: "Indeed, Junior Brother Shen is too dishonest, he probably went to see the list early in the morning, and now he's back home pretending to be sleeping, and wants to come out pretending to be calm. "

When several scholars were joking, Shen Yi, who had simply put on his clothes, was brought out by two maids. Shen Yi lowered his head to fasten his clothes, then looked up at the students in front of him, bowed his hands one by one, and smiled He asked, "Why are you brothers blocking my door?"

Chen Changming had a better relationship with Shen Yi, and immediately stepped forward, patted Shen Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, Master Shen, at this time, he is still playing tricks with us seniors!"

Hearing the title "Master", Shen Yi was overjoyed.

He understood that he had probably won the exam.

Because it is an unwritten rule to call someone a master.

Just when Shen Yi was about to ask how many places he got in the provincial examination, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums, followed by a loud and clear voice.

"Happy news! Happy news!"

The sound stopped abruptly, and with the sound of two gongs, it became loud again.

"Congratulations to Mr. Shen of Jiangdu Prefecture, No. 7 in the Jiankang Township Examination of High School!"
