marquis of jingan

Chapter 298
Shen Yi and this Northern Qi princess had old grudges.

At the beginning, Princess Qi didn't know why she was going crazy, she insisted on drawing Shen Yi to the Qi people, and wanted to label Shen Yi, which forced Shen Yi to turn against Chen. At that time, Shen Yi had no choice but to use Actual actions prove that he is a loyal minister of Chen Guo.

This "practical action" is good for everything, but it hurts the dignity of some Izumo princesses.

It would be fine if the conflict between the two people stopped here. After that, Shen Yi's contribution to the newspaper department of the mansion gradually became impossible to hide. These Qi people have a lot of eyeliners in Jiankang, and most of them can find out about this matter .

Well, as far as the present is concerned, most of the articles that slander the people of Qi in the Di Baosi are written by Shen Yi.

Why is Emperor Beihu in such a hurry to marry a daughter...

And the soon-to-be-published Northern Qi Married Daughter Seeking Peace and the like.

To be honest, these words were not Shen Yi's original intention, he just followed the meaning of the palace and the meaning of the Di Baosi, and then modified it a little.

However, these principles obviously do not make sense to women.

The Izumo princess in the sedan chair had fierce eyes, as if she wanted to eat Shen Yi.

Shen just glanced at her, then lowered his head and stopped looking at her.

Mainly because this scenario is not allowed now.

Fortunately, the sedan chair quickly entered the palace gate, and Shen Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the sedan chair gradually going away, Shen Yi secretly prayed in his heart.

Now it seems that Princess Izumo's entry into the palace is already very difficult to stop. I only hope that His Majesty the Emperor can control the upper body and control the lower body, and don't engage in foreign romances and suddenly fall in love with this Northern Qi princess...

Even if he falls in love, I hope he can keep calm, and he must take the medicine that should be given to the girl, and don't let her conceive any prince...

Thinking that ten years later, there might be a prince born in the palace who is his natural enemy, Shen Yi felt a headache.

But these things, he can only think about it, because he basically has no ability to control the affairs of the palace.

While Shen Yi was thinking wildly, two officials from the Ministry of Rituals and two eunuchs had already stepped forward to lead a group of Jinshi into the palace and walked towards Qionglin Garden.

After arriving at Qionglin Garden, Shen Yi took a look and saw that dozens of tables had already been set up. There were two prime ministers from Zhongshu Province, three hall officials from the Ministry of Rites, and a group of people who read papers during the palace examination. official.

After being greeted by several young eunuchs, all Jinshi took their seats one by one.

Among them, the No. [-] Scholar sits at a table for one person, and the No. [-] Tanhua sits at a table for two people. The other second-class and third-class Scholars sit at a table for every six people.

This banquet was uniformly arranged by Guanglu Temple, and the standard of reception was quite high. Even Shen Yi, who had seen many things in the world, ate some novel dishes at this banquet that he had never eaten before.

After having a lunch at noon, there will be performances arranged by the palace in the afternoon, mainly the dancers and singers sent by the Jiaofang Division to play music and dance in Qionglin Garden, or sing some small songs, which are quite charming.

At this stage, relatively speaking, there is much freedom. These newly promoted Jinshi do not need to sit according to the number of seats, but sit in twos and threes with familiar friends or fellow villagers, and feel the happiness of the ruling class together.

At the same time, there are also some officials in the imperial court who will come down to chat with these newly promoted Jinshi. The people you want to get acquainted with are, first of all, the three top scholars from Sandingjia, and apart from the three top scholars, the most popular It will belong to someone Shen.

Because he is young.

Shen Yi is only 17 years old this year. In terms of age, he is the youngest among Jinshi Jinshi. At this age, he must be praised as a child prodigy.

Among Jinshi Jinshi, apart from Shen Yi, the youngest Jinshi is 22 years old this year.

Because of his young age, Shen Yi has not married a wife yet.

These officials in Jiankang City began to struggle to introduce marriages to Shen Yi. One head of the Ministry of Rituals patted his chest in front of Shen Yi and said that he would introduce a granddaughter of a prime minister to Shen Yi. Come out to have a blind date with Shen Yi Yunyun.

Shen Yi declined one by one.

It's not because of anything else, it's purely this kind of behavior of "catching a son-in-law under the list", which is full of too much transactional nature.

It is undeniable that if Shen Yi, a new official with no political background, can find a powerful father-in-law at this time, his future official career will be much smoother, but Shen Yi doesn't want this kind of smoothness.

Everyone has aspirations.

After staying in Qionglin Garden for an afternoon, it finally reached the evening. When the Qionglin Banquet was about to end, Da Chen Tianzi, who hadn't shown up all day, finally showed up, came to Qionglin Garden, and briefly said a few words to the scholars .

The general meaning is to let these newly promoted scholars work harder so that they can be officials in the future and contribute to the country.

Jinshi masters knelt on the ground, thanking His Majesty the emperor for the banquet.

Shen Yi had no choice but to kneel on the ground and kowtow along with these kowtowers.

His Majesty the Emperor was obviously not very interested. After saying this, he turned his head and left.

As soon as His Majesty the Emperor left, the Qionglin Banquet officially started. After eating the last meal, if the newly promoted Jinshi present wanted to enter the palace, unless the Emperor summoned them, they would have to stay for at least seven days. Eight or ten years have passed.

After all, only a fifth-rank Beijing official is eligible to enter the palace to participate in the court meeting.

Shen Yi sat on his low table, watching the performance of the dancers in Jiaofangsi, and chatting with Sun Li beside him. Sun Li was extremely shy, and it was probably the first time he saw a dancer dancing. Now she lowered her head, her face was a little blushing, she dared not raise her head, and dared not look at the dancers of the Jiaofang Division.

Shen Yi laughed at him, and Sun Li blushed, bowed his head and said in a muffled voice, "This...these are poor girls..."

Shen Yi respected Sun Li with a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Brother Sun misunderstood, not only are there official prostitutes in Jiaofang, there are also singers and dancers who specialize in performances for the palace.

Chen Guo's Jiaofang Division is to some extent equivalent to the Royal Song and Dance Troupe.

It's just that the Royal Song and Dance Troupe is also responsible for managing the eunuch's female relatives who have committed crimes, and is also responsible for managing official prostitutes.

Sun Li just raised his head, glanced at the women on the stage, and then couldn't move his eyes away. He raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and murmured: "I heard people say that the women in the Jiaofang Division are all pitiful. Tight..."

Seeing his appearance, Shen Yi asked curiously: "Brother Sun is never married?"

Sun Li shook his head.

"One heart in the field, but not a family."

It's no wonder, Shen Yi was smiling, and was about to continue talking to Sun Li, when a little eunuch appeared behind Shen Yi at some point, the little eunuch bent down, and said, "Mr. The letter came in, saying that something happened at home and asked you to go back."

Hearing this, Shen Yi first frowned and looked at the little eunuch, then turned his head and said "Excuse me" to Zhao Sun Li, and followed the little eunuch, leaving Qionglin Garden.

After leaving Qionglin Garden, Shen Yi turned his head and glanced at Qionglin Garden behind him, who were singing and dancing, and drinking wine, and then looked at the little eunuch in front of him, and asked, "Little Eunuch, is Eunuch Gao looking for me?"

The little eunuch stopped, a little surprised: "How does the young master know?"

Shen Yi smiled dumbly: "There are so many Jinshi, I have never heard of anyone whose family members can send letters in. Some of these Jinshi are from Jiankang officials and eunuchs. None of them can make it, and my family members can't make it."

Obviously, the excuse that the family sent a letter is just an excuse, an excuse for Shen Yi to escape from Jinshi without being suspected.

Master Shen lowered his eyebrows and said, "Lead the way ahead."

The little eunuch nodded quickly, and led the way with his head lowered. After walking around the palace several times, he finally came to the entrance of a main hall. Shen Yi looked up, and there were three words written on the plaque of the main hall.

Ganlu Temple...

The emperor's study!
Shen Yi was taken aback, and just about to say something, the expressionless Gao Minggao eunuch had already walked in front of Shen Yi. He led Shen Yi into the Ganlu Hall, and said slowly: "Your Majesty has something to ask for you."

Shen Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.

Soon, Shen Yi met His Majesty the Emperor who was the same age as him in the Ganlu Hall.

His Majesty the Emperor had already changed out of his formal attire. He was wearing ordinary blue clothes. He was sitting on a chair in the Ganlu Palace like an ordinary rich man. His hair was slightly disheveled and he looked a bit embarrassed.

After Shen Yi walked in, he was about to kneel down and salute immediately. The little emperor glanced at him and let out a foul breath: "There is no need to salute, just find a place to sit by yourself."

Shen Yi nodded sensiblely, before he could find a place to sit down, he heard the little emperor's voice.

"I'm very upset."

Shen Yi raised his head in astonishment, looked at the emperor, and was stunned.

You are upset... what does it matter to me?

He hesitated for a while, and was about to speak to the emperor when he heard the emperor's voice again.

"In two days, I'm going to Jiming Temple to offer incense. You will make an appointment with Master Gu for me to play the pipa for me at Jiming Temple."

The emperor closed his eyes and leaned on the soft cushion behind him, looking very tired.

"She plays the pipa very well, it can calm people down..."
