Chapter 885 Heavy Resistance
The emperor got angry, Gao Ming and others naturally did not dare to neglect, there were many internal guards guarding near the Shen residence that night, and early the next morning, Lu Sheng, who was the commander of the internal guards, went to the Shen residence on Datong Street in person. .

To be precise, it was the former Cheng Shilang's mansion, the former Cheng Mansion.

To be precise, Lu Weishuai brought nearly [-] internal guards to the mansion at midnight the night before, and made a field survey of the mansion.

Almost every inch of the land in the mansion has been turned over by them, and they almost didn't clean up the land.

In the early morning of the next day, these inner guards finally stopped, and after making sure that there was nothing arranged by the Northern Qi Cleaning Department, Lu Sheng asked someone to help the Shen family move.

And this commander-in-chief of the inner guard, who was always on the lookout, did not leave just yet, but waited for the arrival of the Shen family in the Shen residence on Datong Street.

When it was almost noon, some important belongings of the Shen family were basically moved here, and Mrs. Shen, Lu Ruoxi, also brought her family to this "Shen mansion".

Counting it, it has been half a year since this mansion belonged to the Shen family, but so far, Lu Ruoxi has never visited it once.

Because of some changes in the family, Shen Heng also took a day off from the Imperial Academy to move with his sister-in-law, nephew and niece.

When the family came to this strange new home, they saw a middle-aged man standing tall and straight in the front yard, but his appearance was not very eye-catching. After hesitating for a while, Shen Heng stepped forward and bowed his hands: "Dare to ask?" Who is this brother?"

"My lord, Lu Sheng."

Lu Weishuai looked at Shen Heng and asked, "Is it Shen Hanlin?"

Shen Heng has never met Lu Sheng, but he has heard of Lu Sheng's name. In fact, most of the officials have heard of the name of Lu Weishuai. After all, the inner guard is also secretly monitoring these officials to a certain extent.

Hearing this name, Shen Heng was startled.

This seemingly inconspicuous middle-aged man who forgot what he looked like when he turned his head turned out to be the leader of the Great Chen Neiwei!

To put it a bit exaggerated, the person in front of him is the hand of the emperor hiding in the dark, the hand holding the knife!

He hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Marshal Wei."

"Don't dare."

Lu Sheng clasped his fists in return, and said to Shen Heng: "Shen Hanlin, starting today, Lu has been ordered to check the identities of all the servants in the Shen family."

"Following up, if someone from the Shen family enters the mansion again, the young master will have to wait for the internal guards to verify the facts before letting them enter the mansion."

Shen Heng was stunned for a moment, a little confused.

But his mind was active, and he quickly reacted.

He guessed well last night, as expected, someone was going to attack his family. After thinking about it, he clasped his fists and said, "The Shen family will naturally cooperate with Marshal Wei."

Lu Sheng nodded silently, thanked him, and then the commander-in-chief of the inner guard paused, and then said: "Furthermore, His Majesty asked Shen Hanlin to come to the palace to meet the saint when he is free today."

Hearing this, Shen Heng's scalp tingled even more.

He is not like his brother.

His eldest brother, Shen Yi, has entered the palace countless times. Seeing the emperor is no different from eating and drinking. No.

I can't help feeling nervous.

At that moment, he bowed his hands to Lu Sheng, turned his head and confessed to his sister-in-law, and without daring to delay, he went into the palace in the Shen family's carriage.

Because the emperor said hello in advance, Shen Heng came to Ganlu Hall smoothly, but at the moment the emperor was meeting other people, Shen Heng waited for more than half an hour outside the Ganlu Hall before Eunuch Gao came out and picked him up go in.

Seeing Shen Heng's hand pinching the corner of the official uniform, and his nervous lips turning white, eunuch Gao found it quite interesting, and said with a smile: "Shen Hanlin's personality is quite different from Shen Shilang's. When I met the saint next time, I looked and talked as usual, and there was no change in my face."

Shen Heng smiled wryly: "My father-in-law made fun of me, the next official is much less courageous than my elder brother."

"This is true."

Eunuch Gao said calmly: "In the entire imperial court, there are not many people who are as bold as brother Ling. Before he passed the Jinshi examination, he dared to throw concubine Qi up."

By the time he spoke, Shen Heng had already entered the inner hall, and when he arrived in front of the emperor, he knelt down in a panic, bowed his head and said, "My humble minister Shen Heng, long live my emperor..."

The emperor looked up at Shen Heng, then waved his hands: "There is no need to be polite, stand up and answer."

Shen Heng stood up cautiously and stood with his hands down.

"Did Lu Sheng tell you about your family's affairs?"

Shen Heng bowed his head: "Weichen... I know a little bit about it..."

"Ah."

The emperor put down his pen and sighed: "Last night, the inner guards started to check Shen's house, and today, they have already discovered that there is something wrong with two servants in your family."

"Qi people have infiltrated Jiankang for more than 60 years, and they are really pervasive."

The emperor breathed out and said, "Your elder brother was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Hongde, and you were a Jinshi in the tenth year of Hongde, and they both ordered the Imperial Academy. This is a good story in this dynasty. I value your family very much."

"Shen Yi is on the front line and has made many contributions. His family in Jiankang is naturally well protected. However, whether it is an internal guard or an officer or soldier of the court, they are all outsiders after all. It is not good to visit frequently, let alone live in your house. "

"Therefore, you still need to pay attention to your family members. When you encounter something that is not right, you need to inform the inner guard in time."

The emperor took a look at Shen Heng, and said: "Your brother is serving the country, he is not in Jiankang, Shen Qing, you should take up the burden of the family and pay more attention."

The emperor paused, and added: "Especially your father, sister-in-law, and two nephews and nieces."

"And yourself."

The emperor became rambunctious: "You should pay attention to it on weekdays, and pay more attention to everything."

Shen Heng hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "On behalf of the eldest brother, on behalf of the whole family, I kneel down to thank the Holy Son of Heaven for his kindness!"

The emperor got up, helped Shen Heng up, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and said: "The Shen family has one family and two imperial schools, Shen Qing, you will also be the pillar of the court in the future."

"That's all I've said, you go on your own."

Shen Heng saluted respectfully, and left the Ganlu Hall respectfully.

After Shen Heng left, the emperor stretched his waist, and walked out of the Ganlu Hall with his hands behind his back, looking at Shen Heng's back, thoughtful.

"Tell me, this old ninth of the Shen family, how capable is Shen Qi?"

He was asking Gao Ming.

Eunuch Gao stood behind the emperor, lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Shen Hanlin is only good at reading and writing articles. Even if his articles are in the Imperial Academy, they are also of the highest class..."

"As for the rest of the skills, it has not yet been revealed."

"Well... well-written articles are rare skills."

The emperor nodded, and suddenly smiled: "The Shen family has produced two talented people, so luck is good."

After saying that, he looked back at Gao Ming and asked, "Are there any documents coming from Huai'an today?"

This morning, Shen Yi sent another document, mainly to report to the emperor about the upcoming battle plan.

Gao Ming shook his head slightly: "Your Majesty, Shen Shilang has no documents to come back, but the internal guards in Huai'an are sending documents one after another. If Your Majesty wants to see..."

The emperor narrowed his eyes: "You can see those things yourself."

Eunuch Gao lowered his head and dared not speak.

The emperor put his hands behind his back and asked again: "Then Haman, the servant of the Northern Qi Dynasty, still lives in the guild hall of the Ministry of Rites?"

"Yes."

Eunuch Gao lowered his head and said, "Now I'm still living in the guild hall of the Ministry of Rites, I often go...to the Qinhuai River..."

The emperor snorted.

"Dog skin plaster, I can't shake it off."

The result of the emperor's reply to Haman was that he should think about it again, but the Minister Ha didn't pay attention to the adult world. If he didn't agree or refuse, he still stayed in Jiankang and waited for the news.

In other words, he had figured it out, but he didn't want to leave.

Eunuch Gao hesitated for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "Do you want this servant to invite him away?"

"It's useless."

The emperor shook his head, and said: "After sending this Haman away, maybe there will be a Wuman, these people from Qi..."

Speaking of this, the emperor was a little annoyed: "It's really disgusting!"

Originally, last year, under the "instigation" of Master Shen, the emperor had made up his mind to cut off the Zhao Clan.

If it had been according to the original plan, Shen Yi would have fought a few good battles this year, and the emperor would have been able to replace Zhao Lu and transfer him back to Jiankang if he found a reason.

However, with the delivery of the "Reconciliation Agreement" from the Northern Qi Dynasty, the number of peacemakers in Jiankang City increased overnight.

Up to now, the emperor wants to replace Zhao Lu and fully use the "hawk" Shen Yi, but there are already many obstacles.

Eunuch Gao was silent for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, now we can only look at Minister Shen."

"Yeah, I can only look at him..."

The emperor laughed at himself: "But it can't all depend on him."

"It all depends on Shen Qi, I'm afraid we won't be able to understand the situation until he hits Yandu, those old things in the imperial court!"

Speaking of this, the emperor snorted and said, "Gao Ming, go and call Zhou Fu."

Zhou Fu is the chief official of the Ministry of Officials, the official minister of heaven.

And this year is the year of the Ministry of Officials' investigation, and it is a big year for the officials in the court.

For the sake of Beijing investigation, the emperor has met with officials of the Ministry of Officials many times.

At this time, the Tianguan Shangshu was summoned again. Obviously, His Majesty the Emperor had some new ideas in his heart, and wanted to reflect them in this Beijing investigation.

Eunuch Gao nodded respectfully.

"Slave, let's go..."
