marquis of jingan

Chapter 279 Promoted!
Gao Ming cautiously stood beside the emperor, bowing slightly.

"Your Majesty, Shen Yi has now passed the general examination..."

The emperor frowned.

"As I said, no one can interfere with this scientific expedition."

The emperor glanced at Gao Ming, and said, "The inner guards can't be idle either. We must strictly investigate cheating in scientific examinations. This year, all Jinshi I will admit must be genuine."

Gao Ming bowed his head respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, the people of Qi in the north have become more and more restless recently. Some troops have already arrived on the banks of the Huai River in batches, and they seem to be stepping up shipbuilding..."

Hearing this news, the little emperor frowned deeply.

"I'm not afraid of beating me. If they could come over, they would have been here decades ago. I will give orders to the Huaihe Navy to make them guard against death and not let the people of Qi cross the Huaihe River."

Gao Ming nodded, he glanced at the little emperor again, and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager seems to want you to get married as soon as possible. Recently, the Kunde Palace has been looking for girls from rich families in Jiankang. It is estimated that there are twenty or thirty posts and portraits sent to Kunde Palace by the major families of Jiankang..."

When the matter of the wedding was brought up, the little emperor couldn't help but feel a headache. He put down the ink pen in his hand a little irritatedly, and said: "The queen mother just wants me to be the queen sooner, and then bring the Qiren princess into the palace so that we can get married." people."

His Majesty the emperor snorted, and said: "My mother still treats me like a child, thinking that I can't handle the affairs of the country, and that I'm no match for the people of Qi!"

He looked outside the palace, lowered his voice, and said angrily: "That princess of the Qi people has hooked up with the spies of the Qi people, can such a person be welcomed into the palace!"

After Princess Izumo of the Northern Qi Dynasty arrived in Jiankang, she had contact with the spies buried in Jiankang in the Northern Qi Dynasty. Although she could not be the leader of these spies, she did have correspondence with these spies.

These, of course, cannot be hidden from the eyes of the inner guards.

Gao Ming lowered his head slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, this princess from Qi came to Jiankang, and she is not familiar with the place where she lived. There is no chance to communicate with the outside world.”

The little emperor looked at Gao Ming, and said with a sneer, "After marrying into the Li family, she will be Li's wife from now on, right?"

Gao Ming hastily bowed his head, not daring to speak.

The little emperor glared at Gao Ming, and said in a muffled voice, "What you said is exactly the same as what the queen mother said!"

"The queen mother summoned you to Kunde Palace, didn't she?"

Gao Ming was trembling, knelt on the ground, and said: "Your Majesty, slave... I also think that what the Empress Dowager said is reasonable, slave..."

"This servant is absolutely loyal to His Majesty..."

"OK OK."

The emperor waved his hands impatiently, and said in a muffled voice: "It's the same thing every time. If you don't bother me, you will be too. Get up and get out. Now I'm annoyed, and I don't want to see you!"

Eunuch Gao scrambled and retreated towards the outside of the hall.

The little emperor raised his head, looked at the embarrassed Gao Ming, and said lightly: "I've been a little bored in the palace recently, and I'm going to go out of the palace for a walk, you can make arrangements. In addition, since this Shen Yi is asking for a reward, I also arrange for him to meet him." When I see me, I will ask him face to face what he wants."

Gao Ming had retreated more than ten paces away, with a bitter face, he lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager does not allow you to leave the palace..."

The little emperor glanced at Gao Ming, and said angrily, "Are you from my side, or from Kunde Palace?"

"No matter how ignorant you are, you won't be serving in the Ministry of Internal Affairs tomorrow. I'll transfer you to Kunde Palace to serve your mother!"

Eunuch Gao took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, "I understand."

After all, he retreated respectfully.

The reason for Gao Ming's reaction is not surprising.

It's not that he has a low EQ, nor that he can't recognize his master. In fact, in the past six or seven years, because the emperor was young, the affairs of the outer court were discussed by several ministers and the queen mother, while the affairs of the inner court were basically The empress dowager has the sole authority to deal with it. Even the emperor himself obeys the empress dowager and never dares to refute.

And it wasn't until this moment that eunuch Gao Minggao realized one fact.

His Majesty the Emperor, who I brought up since I was a child, had grown up as a ten-year-old child, and became the emperor of the Great Chen Kingdom.

…………

Shen Yi pretended to be crazy by drinking, and after playing tricks at Neiwei's den, he managed to meet Gao Ming.

Overall, meeting Gao Ming this time was considered a success.

Because Shen Yi went to Gao Ming this time, the biggest need was to send someone from the palace to protect him. This goal has been achieved, and eunuch Gao also promised to send someone to protect him secretly.

That is to say, no matter what benefits the palace gives, they can be regarded as extras, and they are all earned in vain.

After solving the personal safety problem, Shen Yi's next life will be much easier. He doesn't have to worry about private retaliation from Mr. Yang, Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Fan. Really wrote a residence report.

The content of this edition of the Mansion Newspaper is still very strong. After it is published, some people in Jiankang City will definitely be unhappy.

Therefore, after Shen Yi finished writing the manuscript, he did not send it out immediately, because the palace did not send anyone to protect him.

Or…

He hasn't found out that someone is secretly protecting him.

For this reason, Shen Yi deliberately went to the street to hang out. After two or three days of walking, he didn't find anyone following him. Until one day, when Shen Yi was wandering in the street as usual, he bumped into the tall Qi. Dayou, Captain Qi of the inner guard grabbed Shen Yi's sleeve and pulled Shen Yi to the side of the road.

Qi Dayou dragged Shen Yi to a big tree by the side of the road, and smiled wryly, "Brother Shen, why do you wander around the street every day without buying anything?"

Hearing these words, Shen Yi knew that the "bodyguard" promised by Eunuch Gao had been fulfilled!

He was overjoyed, and immediately said with a smile, "I want to see if there is someone secretly protecting me."

Qi Dayou glanced at Shen Yi, full of helplessness: "Brother Shen, if you, a layman, can spot the stalking of the inner guard, he will not be able to do the inner guard anymore."

"However, you have been wandering around for the past few days, and you have exhausted the brothers. You don't know, following people a little bit is much harder than walking normally!"

Shen Yi blinked and asked, "How many people protect me?"

With a straight face, Qi Dayou shook his head and said, "I can't say anything about the inner guard."

Shen Yi didn't ask any further questions, but took out the manuscript from his arms, handed it to Colonel Qi, and said with a smile: "Since someone is protecting me, then I can rest assured, this is the manuscript that my younger brother gave to the newspaper department, please trouble Qi." Eldest brother hand it over to the Dibao Secretary for me!"

After saying this, Shen Yi bowed his hands to Qi Dayou, took his leave and left.

At this moment, Shen Yi, who was walking on the street, felt that his courage grew a lot. He thought of the last time Zhang Jian invited him to dinner and met Zhao Zhuo's restaurant by chance.

The restaurant seems to be called...Yue Yuelou?

There, it should be the place where the second generation often eat together.

Shen Yi is a man of hard work, so he immediately went to Zhao's house, took Zhao Jizhou with him, and went to Yaoyuelou for dinner. Not long after sitting down, Zhao Er had two glasses of wine, and when he complained to Shen Yi, he said There is a big news.

He drank a glass of wine and said in a muffled voice, "Ziheng, you may not know that Chen Yu, the prefect of your Jiangdu, has been promoted to be a member of the Ministry of Officials!"

Hearing this news, Shen Yi couldn't help being a little surprised.

Good guy, the local prefect has been directly promoted to a Beijing official!
