Chapter 379 Reporting to the court

Chapter 379 Reporting to the court
The Shen family is not a top family in Jiangdu. Before Shen Yizhong Jinshi, even uncle Shen Hui's family was at most a lower-middle family, while Shen Zhang's family could only barely be called a noble family.

After all, Shen Zhang himself is no longer a soldier.

But now, the Shen family mansion is very lively.

Because the Shen family gave birth to Shen Yi, who was the first Imperial Academy of the Shen family in Jiangdu for more than 100 years, and also the first second-class Jinshi.

Counting forward from the Shen family, that is to say, Shen Yi's great-grandfather was the highest official, and he became a member of the Sixth Division. Into the Imperial Academy.

But now, Shen Yi not only won the Jinshi, but also entered the Hanlin Academy.

For the Shen family, this is naturally a supreme honor.

And, more than honorable.

As a Hanlin, as long as Shen Yi doesn't risk his life, his future achievements will surely surpass his great-grandfather's. As long as he rises step by step, even if he can't be a prime minister, it shouldn't be difficult to be a servant or a third-rank official.

After all, Shen Yi is still very young.

In other words, the Shen family will definitely become an official family in the future. Even if most people cannot directly gain the favor of Shen Yi, at least there is a clan member with a high-ranking official, so they don't have to be afraid of being bullied by officials in Jiangdu.

So this time when Shen Yi got married, there was a lot of noise.

Almost all the members of the Shen family in Jiangdu Mansion, who could come, gathered in the Shen family's mansion to help arrange the marriage.

As the groom's official, Shen Yi had his hair combed and put on a red wedding dress by a few maids early in the morning.

This is the advantage of having a large number of people. Shen Yi, the groom, doesn't have to worry about himself at all, just like a puppet, he can just be manipulated by others.

After tossing about for about an hour, Shen Yi finally changed his clothes, then rode on the big horse and set off to meet the bride.

In the wedding reception team, the third elder brother Shen Ling and the younger brother Shen Heng were accompanied, and Shen Yi was riding on a horse, looking thoughtfully at the mighty wedding reception team.

After a while, Shen Yi looked at Shen Ling who was following behind him, and asked, "Third Brother, how many people from our Shen family are here today?"

Shen Ling was smiling all over his face at the moment, he was taken aback when he heard the words, then thought about it, and said: "Today is a day of great joy for our Shen family, everyone who can come is here, our family has settled in Jiangdu since the time of Liezu, When the great-grandfather made his fortune, there were 300-200 people in Jiangdu, but today there are probably [-] people who came to help."

Having said that, he smiled and asked, "Why did Ziheng suddenly ask this?"

Shen Yi, who was riding on a tall horse, smiled, and didn't say anything more, but just responded.

"Nothing, just ask casually."

Shen Yi didn't think how big the Shen family was at first, in his opinion, even if counting several uncle's family members and daughters-in-law of the Shen family, there would not be more than twenty people in total.

But now... after someone Shen suddenly rose to the top, he realized that the Shen family is actually very big and has many people.

The appearance of him, Duke Hanlin, caused the Shen family to change from a scattered family to a big one.

With such a big family, there are advantages and disadvantages.

For example, if Shen Yi wants to support others to do things, as long as they are members of the Shen family... most of them will try their best to help him, but at the same time, when he enjoys his rights, it is inevitable.We must also bear corresponding responsibilities.

It's all right that he's a small official now, but if he becomes a big official in the future, his family will inevitably pull his tiger's skin, just like the Fan family.

Shen Yi was distracted for a while, then came back to his senses, looked at Shen Ling at the side, and suddenly smiled: "Third brother, will you go to Jiankang with me after the new year?"?
Shen Ling stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "Qilang, if you want to go for my brother, I will go with you for my brother."

"Ah."

Shen Yi looked forward and said with a smile: "Third brother will stay with me in Jiankang for a few years, and when uncle gets older, you will come back..."

To avoid this kind of thing from happening, the family needs a family member who is of the same heart and mind as Shen Yi, so that the Shen family will not do evil in Jiangdu, will not run amok in the countryside behind Shen Yi's back, and will not drag Shen Yi down before Shen Yi has fully grown up. into the abyss.

Ganquan Academy is not very far from Jiangdu, so when the two brothers talked, Ganquan Academy was already close at hand.

Originally, when Master Lu's daughter married, she should not have left the court from Ganquan Academy, but Master Lu did not own real estate in Jiangdu, and he was very prestigious in the academy. Today I left the pavilion from the academy.

Because it is a gentle place like the academy, and Shen Yi's Hanlin status is here, no one dares to make things difficult for him. Shen Yi entered the academy smoothly, and kowtowed to the complex-looking Master Lu in accordance with the requirements of the officiant. He nodded and called his father-in-law.

Master Lu stretched out his hand to help Shen Yi up, and said a few polite words.

Then he let out a long sigh: "Qingque is in the embroidered building, you welcome her down."

Shen Yi kowtowed again, then went up to the Xiulou smoothly, and knocked on the door of the Xiulou.

"Junior Sister, I'm here to take you home."

Shen Yi's tone was gentle.

The door of Xiulou opened slowly, and Lian Er, who was also wearing new clothes, came out with a smile, and stretched out her hand to Shen Yi to ask for money.

"Grandpa, I won't let you pick up Miss if you don't have some money!"

She was already very familiar with Shen Yi, and knew Shen Yi's temper, so she dared to joke with Shen Yi.

Shen Yi took out four or five red envelopes from his bosom in one breath, and handed them to Lian'er, all of which were scattered silver coins pressed into cakes.

"I prepared a lot early in the morning, but no one stopped me when I arrived at the academy. I'll give it to you, give it to you."

After taking the happy money, Lian'er opened the door with a smile on her face. After all, she was getting married in a gentle family, so it shouldn't be too noisy.

After Shen Yi entered, he extended his hand to Junior Sister Lu, and said with a smile, "Junior Sister, father-in-law is still waiting for you to salute below."

"Um…"

Junior sister Lu, who was covered with a hijab, blushed, followed Shen Yi downstairs, walked up to Master Lu, and bowed respectfully.

Lu Anshi gave four words of exhortation, every word of exhortation, Miss Lu bowed down and kowtowed once, after the four words were finished, both father and daughter burst into tears.

Finally, under the auspices of the officiant, all the etiquette was completed, and Miss Lu got into the eight-carried sedan chair with the help of the maid.

After getting on the sedan chair, Shen Yi turned his head and kowtowed to Master Lu, then turned around and got on the horse.

According to the rules, he has to go home with the bride first, and then welcome the bride at home.

The speed of riding a horse must be faster than that of a sedan chair. It didn't take long for Shen Yi to return to the Shen family's mansion, and then waited for the sedan chair to get off at the door, and stepped forward to carry the bride into the new house.

After entering the new house, Shen Yi was about to go out to meet the guests.

As for the wedding, it was in the evening...

…………

On this day, there was an endless stream of guests from the Shen family.

Regardless of whether they are related or not, they all came to the Shen family mansion to congratulate them, including Shen Yi's classmates in the academy, as well as the new recruit Chen Changming, and Sun Li, a Jinshi from Jiangdu who met in Jiankang.

However, another Jinshi from his hometown did not come, because he was still in Jiankang and never came back. He just sent a letter and congratulated him from afar.

Apart from Shen Yi's friends, almost all the country gentry from Jiangdu also gathered at Shen's house to congratulate Shen Yi.

And even more important were Zhang Jian, the magistrate of Jiangdu, and Zheng Yuan, the new magistrate of Jiangdu.

These two people are serious Jiangdu parents and officials, and they are the indisputable masters of Jiangdu.

Among them, Zhang Jian's status may be higher than that of Zheng Yuan. Firstly, it is because Zhang Xianzun's blue sky light spreads all over Jiankang these days. Not the same.

The bosses of the two levels of the county government's yamen came, and many officials at the gate of the yamen also came. Shen Yi greeted the guests at the door, and thanked these officials one by one.

Finally, Zhang Jian was welcomed.

This once handsome county lord now has a tired face, and even looks pale. It is obvious that he has been really tired these few days.

Shen Yi bowed his hands to Zhang Jian, and said, "Brother, you have worked hard."

Zhang Jian waved her hand and said with a helpless smile, "It's not hard work, it's all right after a while."

He patted Shen Yi on the shoulder, and said helplessly: "I can't stay long, I guess I have to leave after a meal, there are too many things in the yamen, some things I am not present, the people below dare not do it, and they may do something wrong .”

After all, the Fan family was involved, and it was normal for many people in the county government to dare not handle the matter.

Shen Yi nodded silently, and sighed: "It's hard for senior brother, when senior brother returns to Jiankang next year, I will treat senior brother to drink ten meals!"

"Haha... Brother Wei remembers your words!"

Zhang Jian grinned, then moved closer to Shen Yi, and whispered in a weary tone: "About the Fan family's memorial, the county government has already reported it to the imperial court..."

 The process and etiquette of the wedding are too complicated. I checked it for a long time. If I wrote it step by step, it would take several chapters, so I simplified it as much as possible!

  No hydrology ha!
