marquis of jingan

Chapter 893

Shen Yi had to go back to Jiankang.

One reason is that it will take more than a month for Li Mu to go to Yandu, plus the response time of the Northern Qi court, it is estimated that it will be autumn before the fight again, so Shen Yi can also go back to Jiankang to watch Look at the little girl who is only half a year old.

Of course, he was an imperial envoy, and he had no intention to return to Jiankang. This time, the emperor ordered him to go back to Jiankang.

In fact, the emperor's decree arrived a few days ago. The decree said that he should return to Jiankang after dealing with the affairs in Huai'an, and the emperor wanted to see him.

Although it was not stated clearly, it is not difficult to guess. The main reason is that the emperor wanted to hear Shen Yi's battle plan for the next stage, and by the way, discussed with Shen Yi the exact timing of the official Northern Expedition.

After arranging things in Huai'an, Shen Yi didn't hesitate, and rode back to Jiankang with a hundred followers.

For a distance of more than 400 miles, Shen Yi did not walk very fast. After running for three or four days, he arrived at the city of Jiankang in the afternoon of the fourth day.

After he returned to Jiankang, he did not enter the palace immediately, but went back to the Shen mansion first, and went to look at the empty mansion.

After a while, he came out of the Shen mansion and ran towards the Shen residence on Datong Street.

Compared with Shen's house, the Shen's mansion in front of him, even in Jiankang, can be described as a mansion.

Looking at this big house, Shen Yi sighed slightly, stepped forward, and just took two steps, he was stopped by two guards: "Sign up and pass it on!"

Master Shen was overjoyed. Seeing that these two people were indeed strangers, he thought about it and realized.

Most of them are internal guards.

And he is a newcomer in the inner guard, so he doesn't recognize him.

Shen Yi was not annoyed but happy, cupped his hands slightly, and said with a smile: "I am Shen Yi, this should be my new house."

Hearing Shen Yi's name, the two servants looked at each other, and one of them bowed his head to Shen Yi and said, "Young master, please go and report later."

Not long after, all the Shen family came out to welcome Shen Yi, including his father Shen Zhang.

Shen Zhang came to Jiankang after Shen Yi gave birth to his granddaughter. After staying in Jiankang for a while, he planned to return to Jiangdu. He also took Shen Zhang to live in Shen's residence.

At this moment, Shen Zhang was holding the hand of his eldest grandson, and Lu Ruoxi was holding his little daughter Shen Sangsang, and they went out to meet Shen Yi together. Master Shen didn't dare to neglect, and knelt down in front of the old father, bowing his head and saluting: "See you, father."

Before he could fully kneel on the ground, Shen Zhang helped him up, then reached out to pat the dust on Shen Yi's body, and looked up and down at his eldest son.

Even the little old man, who is already several dozen years old, couldn't help his eyes turning red at the moment, and he patted the elder son's arm: "Listen to Heng'er, you won the battle and offended the people of Qi, and the people of Qi are going to kill the elders of our family." Little life."

Speaking of this, the little old man sighed: "Father often thinks that our family lives in Jiankang, and we have never met Qi people. They even want to harm us, so naturally they will not let you go..."

The old father's eyes were full of worry: "It's hard for you."

In Shen Yi's heart, he was also quite moved.

What the old man said was right, everyone in Qi threatened his family, so naturally they would not let him go. In fact, if the inner guards hadn't been secretly protecting him, he would have died long ago.

The current Shen Yi has already entered the top five in the assassination list of the Department of Purity!
In the past few months alone, there have been as many as eight or nine assassinations against him!

Shen Yi forced a smile, and said, "Father, don't worry, there will definitely be no danger for the child with the masters of the inner circle following him."

The old father said a few words to Shen Yi, and suddenly said: "Yi'er, I know that I shouldn't cause trouble for you at this time, but I still have to go back to Jiangdu after a few days for my father."

"One reason is that your uncle is ill. There are only two brothers left in the Shen family. I have to go and see him as my father. Secondly, Henger's wedding is coming soon. My father will go to Jiangdu to take care of it for him. At home, we have to negotiate in advance."

Shen Yi was silent for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, my son will arrange it for you."

After talking to her father, Lu Ruoxi came over with her daughter in her arms, and handed her into Shen Yi's arms. Master Shen stretched out his hand to take it. Shen Sangsang was not afraid of people, and looked at him with wide eyes in Shen Yi's arms.

It's just that she's too young to speak at all.

Lu Ruoxi pulled Shen Yi's sleeve, and her eyes were a little red: "My husband is back, why didn't you say something in advance..."

Shen Yi said silently: "Your Majesty called me back, and it was about this time when I sent the letter back, so I didn't write a letter home."

He held Lu Ruoxi's hand, and said softly: "I'm not at home during this time, so it's hard for Madam."

The Shen family was threatened by the Qi people. What was even more frightening was that in the original Shen house, the inner guards found two chess pieces laid by the Qi people. It can be said that the young and old Shen family was once very dangerous.

Shen Yi is not at home, and Shen Zhang doesn't take care of the housework very much on weekdays, and the family affairs are almost entirely managed by Lu Ruoxi.

What's more, Shen Heng and Chen Youniang will get married in just over a month. As the eldest sister-in-law, she is also in charge of this matter, and she has really contributed a lot to the family.

After listening to Shen Yi's words, Lu Ruoxi couldn't bear it anymore, and burst into tears.

Shen Yi held her hand, and the family entered the Shen house together.

After a short rest, Master Shen took a good tour of his new home under the leadership of his eldest son Shen Yuan.

It was not until the evening that Shen Yi took a shower and began to change into official uniforms.

At this moment, he had already returned to Jiankang for half a day, and it was reasonable to enter the palace before the palace gate was closed. If he waited until tomorrow, the emperor might not be happy.

In the bedroom, Lu Ruoxi found out a set of python robes embroidered with four-clawed dragons, gestured at Shen Yi, and said softly: "The Ministry of Rites just delivered it last month. Your husband wears this to enter the palace?"

Shen Yi shook his head hastily: "Don't, if you wear it out, you'll have to be pissed off behind your back. I don't want to be a conspicuous bag."

"Let them talk if they want to talk."

Mrs. Shen snorted softly: "They want to wear it but they can't. Besides, this is what my husband earned with his life, so you should wear it well."

Shen Yi still shook his head slightly and refused.

"I'll wear it again when our son and daughter get married."

Mrs. Shen curled her lips: "I might not be able to wear it at that time."

She looked at Shen Yi, and said: "Then, the husband puts it on and let the concubine see it alone, okay?"

Master Shen pinched Madam's face, said with a smile: "It's too late, wait until I come back from the palace."

He clung to Madam Shen's ear and said with a smile: "When my husband comes back, Madam will put on this outfit for my husband to see."

Although Shen Yi is much stronger now, he is not fat, and his clothes can also be worn by Lu Ruoxi.

Lu Ruoxi's face turned red when she said these words, she lowered her head, and turned her face away shyly: "She is a daughter, how can anyone wear a boa robe?"

Master Shen narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"It's my daughter's home that has a python, so there is a smell."

Mrs. Shen turned her face away: "I won't tell you anymore, I'll let the censor hear it, and I have to sue you..."

…………

Because it was summer, it got dark slowly, and Shen Yi, who was dressed in a fourth-rank official uniform, managed to enter the palace before the palace gate closed before the sunset.

As soon as he entered the palace, he was led by several eunuchs to the Ganlu Hall, where he immediately met His Majesty the Emperor.

After Mr. Shen knelt down to salute, the emperor shouted a word of peace, then looked at the official uniform Shen Yi was wearing, and said with a smile: "Isn't Aiqing a third-rank servant? Why is she still wearing a fourth-rank official uniform?"

Shen Yi lowered his head slightly and said: "Return to Your Majesty, the minister's servant is empty and has no real responsibility, and the minister is not very old, so he might be jealous if he wears it out."

Hearing this, the emperor sat down on his soft couch, with a half-smile: "At your age, you won't be jealous of the fourth rank?"

"The monkeys on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed ten thousand mountains."

Master Shen bowed slightly and said, "I just try to ignore them as much as possible."

The emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then he clapped his hands and sighed, "What an ape on both sides of the strait can't help crying."

"What a light boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"Shen Qing used to be very talented in poetry, but since she was selected as a Jinshi, she has no good works. I thought Shen Qing was exhausted."

Shen Yi lowered his head slightly and said: "I work hard for the king's affairs, and I don't care about him."

The emperor nodded.

"Yes, Shen Qing has indeed been working hard for the king's affairs in the past few years."

He looked at Shen Yi, smiled and said: "Now, the current situation has reached the most critical moment, why does Shen Qing teach me?"

"The minister still said that just now."

Master Shen raised his head, glanced at the emperor, lowered his head again, and cupped his hands.

"The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying."

"The light boat has passed ten thousand mountains."
