Chapter 935 Empowerment
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Shen Ling turned his head to look at Shen Yi, he shook his head slightly, then sighed: "Lao Qi, I understand what you mean, but I have father and brother above me, even if it's my turn to take care of the family affairs. "

The previous generation of the Shen family had nine brothers, Shen Hui's family had two sons, the eldest son of his family was also the eldest among his peers, Shen Ling was the second in his family and the third among his peers.

When Shen Hui was the county magistrate in other places, the eldest brother of the family went with him, and he had been the noble son of the county for many years, while Shen Ling was left in Jiangdu to look after the house and take care of some of the few remaining properties of the family.

Therefore, Shen Yi is not very familiar with that elder brother.

Shen Yi pulled Shen Ling to sit down. At this moment, the third sister-in-law had made some small dishes and put them in front of the two brothers. Shen Yi poured a glass of wine for Shen Ling, and then said slowly: "Third brother, among the brothers in the family, Besides Xiaojiu, we are the only brothers who have the best relationship, and the family members in Jiangdu, I can only trust you, third brother."

"Some things, you have to take care of them if you don't want to."

Master Shen offered a toast to Shen Ling, and then said in a deep voice: "Let the uncle take care of it, the Shen family will become the next Fan family sooner or later, when a "Shen Dongcheng" comes out from our family, he will kill me too."

For Shen Yi, the Shen family...

In other words, for Shen Yi at this stage, there is no help at all.

Not only is there no help, but it may even become Shen Yi's trouble.

Because this Shen family in Jiangdu is very likely to evolve into the next Fan family!It can even be said that there are already some prototypes of the Fan family!
If in the future, a "Shen Dongcheng" appeared in the Shen family in Jiangdu, it would really drive Shen Yi to death.

But now, Shen Hui, the head of the Shen family in Jiangdu, is a standard snobbery, and he is the kind of snobbery who thinks he is proficient in the world.

With him continuing to take charge of the Shen family in Jiangdu, the Shen family will definitely use their power to bully others.

Coincidentally, when Fan Dongcheng was bullying others, his backer was the servant of the Six Departments. Now Shen Yi is half of the servant of the Six Departments. The situation is surprisingly the same.

Shen Ling clinked a glass with Shen Yi, smiled wryly and said, "It's not that I don't want to care."

Shen Yi interrupted him, and said slowly: "Third Brother, don't worry about this matter. As long as you nod your head, I will naturally have a way for you to take care of things. At that time, no matter whether it is the uncle or the eldest brother, there will be nothing to say."

Shen Ling was silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "Old Qi, how dare I disobey my father..."

"It's not disobedience."

Shen Yi said in a deep voice: "It is to lead our Shen family back to the right path!"

"The Fan family in Jiangdu was so beautiful back then, where is the Fan family now?"

"If you don't hold your body and don't discipline yourself, no matter how beautiful it is, it will be temporary."

Shen Ling took a deep breath and said, "Well then, Qilang, tell me, what is the regulation?"

"A few days ago, when I returned to Jiankang, His Majesty gave me five thousand acres of land."

Shen Yi paused, and said, "Five thousand acres of land in Jiangdu."

"These lands are good fields. Next year, the Ministry of Household Affairs will distribute them to the local government to take our family members to measure them. When the time comes, third brother, you will go there for me. The annual income of these lands will also be taken care of by you, third brother." .”

Shen Ling scratched his head: "There are naturally a lot of these lands, but if you only manage the land, you may not be able to manage family affairs."

"It's natural."

Shen Yi said with a smile: "Besides these lands, there are other things that need to be handed over to the third brother, but we will have to wait until tomorrow."

That night, Shen Yi and Shen Ling drank wine for half the night, and were finally arranged to rest in the wing.

That night, Shen Zhang also came to look for Shen Yi. The father and son communicated, and Shen Zhang agreed to go back to Jiankang with Shen Yi tomorrow.

There was finally no grudge between father and son.

The next day, before Master Shen woke up, Shen Ling, who had the best relationship with him, entered his room and woke him up.

"Lao Qi, there is a guest coming to visit you."

At this time, in the entire Shen family, except for Shen Ling, no one dared to disturb Shen Yi, the servant of the Ministry of War, to sleep.

Shen Yi opened his eyes, rubbed his eye sockets, stretched his waist, looked at Shen Ling, and said with a smile: "Third brother got up early."

He asked, "Is the magistrate from Jiangdu here?"

"Ah."

Shen Ling nodded, and said: "The magistrate of Jiangdu and the magistrate of Jiangdu County have come, except for these two local officials, some officials of the government office are now in the front yard, and my father is drinking tea with them. "

Shen Yi yawned and stood up, put on his coat, and said, "In that case, I'll go see them."

After getting dressed, he pulled Shen Ling's sleeve and said with a smile, "Third brother will go with me."

In this way, the two brothers soon came to the main hall of the Shen family. In the main hall, Shen Hui was sitting in the main seat. The head of the Shen family, whose hair was mostly gray, was in good spirits, chatting and laughing happily with the prefect of Jiangdu.

The prefect of Jiangdu, surnamed Zeng, has been in Jiangdu for more than a year. He looks only about 40 years old, quite young.

The new county magistrate of Jiangdu County is not very old, probably about 30 years old, and both of them are officials of the young and strong faction.

In addition, there are officials like the Tongzhi of the government office, a total of seven or eight people, all sitting in the main hall.

After Shen Yi came in, Shen Hui was still sitting on the main seat, with a smile on his face: "Lao Qi is awake."

He looked at Zeng Zhifu, and said with a smile: "Master Fu, this is the seventh son of my family, Shen Yi."

Hearing this, Master Zeng and a group of Jiangdu officials got up one after another, and bowed to Shen Yi, everyone bent down and bowed their heads deeply.

"My next official Jiangdu prefect Zeng Ming, pay my respects to Minister Shen!"

"Xiaguan Jiangdu Tongzhi..."

"Xiaguan Jiangdu County magistrate..."

All the parents and officials bowed down to Shen Yi with a respectful attitude.

There is no way, although Master Shen does not have a real position as the Minister of the Ministry of War, but his rank has already risen, and he is a real third-rank Beijing official.

The Beijing official has been promoted to at least two levels, which means that Shen Yi is now no different from the second-rank chief constitution of a province, and even has a higher status.

But Shen Yi didn't put on airs either, he didn't bow his head, but cupped his hands symbolically, and said with a smile: "My lords, be polite."

He looked at Zeng Zhifu, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has good eyes and ears, I just went home last night, and I was caught by His Majesty today."

Jiangdu is a rich place, and those who can be parents' officials here, without exception, are from the court. However, Shen Yi is now qualified to be the "backstage" of these local officials, so there is no need to be too polite to them.

Zeng Zhifu was terrified, lowered his head slightly and said: "Don't dare, I just heard about it, so I went to the Lord Minister's house to have a look, and after asking, I found out that Lord Minister is back, so I dared to visit."

"Fu Zun misunderstood."

Master Shen still had a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "This is not my house, but my uncle's house. There is still some distance from my house to here, but there is no one living in the house, and it is deserted, so I stayed here with uncle yesterday. One night."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, Zhifu Zeng was thoughtful, but he didn't answer.

Shen Hui, who was on the side, looked a little unsightly.

But in front of so many officials, he didn't like to get angry, so he just kept his face dark and bowed his head to drink tea.

After chatting with Shen Yi for a few gossips, Zeng Zhifu finally remembered the business, he slightly lowered his head and cupped his hands and said: "My lord, you are a famous person in our Jiangdu Prefecture. Although the official is not from Jiangdu Prefecture, now that you are the official of Jiangdu's parents, you also feel that pleasure."

"The lower officials have the guts to invite my lord to have a meal together with my colleagues in Jiangdu, so as to welcome my lord."

Shen Yi said with a smile: "There is no problem with eating, but where is Fu Zun going to eat?"

Zeng Zhifu was overjoyed, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty has already booked a banquet, at noon today, at the Moon Tower..."

Shen Yi shook his head slightly, and said: "There is a Taibai Building by the Yudai Lake, the food is good, go there and eat."

It's not that Mr. Shen is picky, but there are quite a few people who want to kill him now, so when he goes out to eat, he has to choose a place at random, otherwise it will be a bit unsafe.

Zeng Zhifu naturally had no objection, and nodded repeatedly: "I will listen to you, my lord."

"That's settled then."

Shen Yi smiled and said: "Don't disturb your colleagues' work, I will send you out, and we will have a good talk at noon."

Naturally, these people did not dare not to agree, and they all left Shen's residence respectfully.

Shen Hui and the others also followed Shen Yi and sent them away.

Because Shen Yi slept late, it was not too long before noon. Standing at the gate of Shen's house, in front of his uncle Shen Hui, Shen Yi turned his head, looked at Shen Ling, and said with a smile: " Third brother, I haven't been back to Jiangdu for a long time, and I'm not too familiar with Jiangdu, so you can go to Taibailou with me later for dinner?"

Hearing this, Shen Ling's heart moved slightly.

Only then did he understand what Shen Yi said last night.

It turned out that as early as last night, I, my seventh brother, had already made up my mind to introduce myself to the local officials in Jiangdu!

Shen Ling glanced at his father, seeing that his father didn't respond, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll accompany Ziheng to go there later."

Shen Yi glanced at Shen Hui with a half-smile, then pulled Shen Ling's sleeve and smiled.

"Then it's hard work, third brother."
