Chapter 676: A Tangible Reward

The good mood of Shen Xi's day starts with a sunny morning.

When he opened his eyes on Xie Yun'er's fragrant pillow, the first thing he saw was not Xie Yun'er's flowery face, but an innocent and cute little face with big eyes.

Yin Wen woke up early in the morning and found that Shen Xi was not around, so he looked everywhere after getting dressed. The little girl was simple-minded, and when she pushed the door of the west chamber and entered it, she stood by the bed and looked at Shen Xi and Xie Yun'er, who were sleeping on their pillows, and pouted.

Xie Yun'er, who woke up, was embarrassed to continue lying on the bed and was looked at by the little girl with aggrieved eyes, so she quickly dressed and "gave up" Shen Xi to Yin Wen with understanding.

Originally, Xie Yun'er wanted to help her move a chair to sit on, but the little girl went to get a stool and moved it to the side of the bed, and then picked up the peach blossom fan that Xie Yun'er treasured on the table, and sat on the edge of the bed facing Shen Xi is fan.

So when Shen Xi woke up, he felt cold, and before he opened his eyes, he was still thinking, could it be that Wushan was in a stormy last night, and he didn't even cover the quilt and fell asleep, so it was so cold?

When I opened my eyes, I realized that someone was "doing it".

Shen Xi's thoughts couldn't help but go back to more than two years ago, it was the middle of summer, and when he was taking a nap, Yin Wen insisted on fanning him despite the fact that he was also very hot......

This is a well-thought-out little girl!

She doesn't know how to please others, she only remembers to use the original method, so this scene looks funny, but when she thinks about it, there is a warmth.

"Put down the fan, this is the cold winter wax moon, where is the big winter fan?" Shen Xi said, got up from the bed, found himself wearing underwear, happily sat on the bed and stretched his arms, and then twisted his waist from side to side...... Because of the fatigue of the journey, and the fact that it was a little intense after reuniting with Xie Yun'er after a long absence last night, I felt a little sore back at this time.

"Uh-huh."

Although Xiao Nizi didn't quite understand why Shen Xi was dissatisfied, she obediently put the fan down, and soon she found a better way to please Shen Xi.

Shen Xi sat on the edge of the bed, and Yin Wen consciously pinched his waist and beat his legs for him.

"Xiaowen's skills are really good, I learned it from my grandmother?" Shen Xi asked with a smile.

"Uh-huh."

Yin Wen was praised and nodded happily.

Yesterday, I was still crying looking for my mother, but at this moment, only Shen Xi was left in my eyes, and it seemed that it didn't matter if I had grandparents or not.

"What an easy and satisfying girl, it's time for me to get up, and enjoy your craft in the evening. Would you like to help me get dressed? Shen Xi asked with a smile.

"Uh-huh."

Yin Wen almost didn't say anything else, and his little head was very diligent.

On weekdays, Shen Xi dresses by herself, except for Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai who will help tidy up when she wears court clothes, and the second daughter is used to Shen Xi coming by herself at other times.

Occasionally, Shen Xi needs to get up early, and Xie Yun'er will get up to help Shen Xi tie her belt and fulfill her wife's responsibilities.

Shen Xi couldn't help but enjoy the feeling of being taken care of carefully when he saw Yin Wen being so diligent, and he felt that this also made Yin Wen more aware of his position at home.

Xiao Nizi doesn't need to learn from others, just take care of herself, and at the same time do something to take care of the "future husband......

Yin Wen is now more like a girl in the room, but she has a special identity, even Xie Yun'er doesn't dare to treat her as a maid, Shen Xi is the head of the family, his love for Yin Wen is obvious, no one dares to risk angering Shen Xi to bully Yin Wen, and she is also a pitiful little girl who is harmless to people and animals.

Yin Wenqin is one thing, but asking her to help Shen Xi dress seems a little clumsy, because she has never seen the style of the official uniform before, and Shen Xi's dress seems very "awkward" to her.

"Won't? I'll teach you, you see...... Okay, tie it up. ”

Shen Xi got dressed, turned around and held Yin Wen's little hand, Yin Wen was ashamed and happy, his eyes were foggy, and he occasionally looked up and peeked at Shen Xi with a little thirst.

Shen Xi believes that even if she wants to pick this interpretation flower now, not only will she not refuse, but she will take the initiative. It's a pity that Shen Xi doesn't want to destroy the current harmonious way of getting along, he treats Yin Wen as a little lover and slowly cultivates his feelings, and at this time he has her, and he has a sense of guilt that everything he does is to possess her.

Waiting for Shen Xi and Yin Wen to walk out of the room, Xie Yun'er by the ancient well heard the footsteps, glanced back, and asked with a smile, "Xianggong came out?" ”

Xie Yun'er's room was occupied, so she had to go to the courtyard to direct the maid to do things, Shen Xi brought back a lot of clothes that had been changed on the way, all of which needed to be washed, and at the same time, Yin Wen's room also needed to be cleaned up and added some things.

"Busy?"

Shen Xi stepped forward with a smile and took Xie Yun'er's hand, and Xie Yun'er quickly withdrew her hand shyly.

"The girls are watching."

Xie Yun'er had a touch of red on her face, mainly because she felt shy about the "intense" after yesterday's long-term reunion, and she originally said that she would leave the first day to Lin Dai and give Lin Dai a chance to get pregnant, but Xianggong was still occupied by her.

Yin Wen looked up at Shen Xi and the eldest sister in front of him, and didn't understand why they were so intimate.

"Didn't Xianggong say that he was going to take Dai'er out? This girl hasn't been out of the room yet, I guess she's angry, Xianggong is going to coax her, Dai'er has been dressed up carefully these days, just to let Xianggong see her most beautiful side when he comes back......" Xie Yun'er said good things for Lin Dai.

"Wait for the afternoon, I'm going to Zhan Shifu in the morning, come back early in the afternoon, and take her out when the time comes." Shen Xi turned to Yin Wen and said, "Xiaowen, you have to listen to Sister Yun'er at home, and wait for me to come back, do you know?" ”

When Xiao Nizi heard this, she immediately pounced, and her little hand wrapped her arms around Shen Xi's waist...... Her attachment to Shen Xi has surpassed that of her relatives.

"Xiaowen, the master has something to do, you can't pester him, you know? The master will come back in the afternoon, be obedient, and go inside to see the new clothes that my sister has prepared for you......"

For Yin Wen, whether it is dim sum or new clothes, it is not as important as Shen Xi, she is no longer at an age where she doesn't know anything, she knows who is good to her and who is her future dependence.

In the end, Shen Xi was ruthless, pulled Yin Wen's hand away, and went out.

……

……

Shen Xi drank a bowl of mutton soup on the road, and when he arrived at Zhan Shifu, Shen Xi found that there was basically no change in the past two months, the people were still those people, and the things were still those things.

The officials of the Hanlin system are the most difficult to promote and change in the entire Ming officials, because every promotion level, that is the difference between heaven and earth, most people are silently remembering in their hearts the three-year examination, the nine-year examination evaluation period to live, a promotion to nine years, in these nine years can not have any major mistakes, otherwise it is likely to be three years after three years, nine years after nine years and then nine years.

If you don't make a good transfer to a place, your previous hard work will be in vain.

Wang Hua is still in the position of the right concubine, theoretically he is Shen Xi's boss, but in terms of status, the two are no longer up and down.

Shen Xi is now a Hanlin attendant, an East Palace speaker, and a Japanese speaker, and Wang Hua is just a Hanlin attendant, except for the right concubine who is half a grade higher than the right Yude, the other two are exactly the same, and Shen Xi is still a "new upstart", he has just made a great contribution to the border pass, and most of them will be promoted after he comes back, and he may not know who will give whom when the time comes.

"Shen Yude, thank you for taking care of the children's ......"

When Wang Hua saw Shen Xi, he hurriedly came up to express his gratitude to Shen Xi.

In fact, Shen Xi had never seen Wang Shouren at all along the way, let alone taken care of him. Although Shen Xi and Wang Shouren did the same trip, Wang Shouren set off in advance, and the grain and grass were robbed by the Tatars and should have returned to Beijing one step earlier, but the follow-up grain and grass of the imperial court had been sent to Xuanfu and Datong, Wang Shouren as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, could not get out, and now he was stranded in Datong Town and did not come back, but Shen Xi, who set off late, returned to Beijing first.

"Wang Shuzi is polite, colleagues should take care of each other. Besides, Ling Lang and I hit it off at first sight, and we appreciate his talent and ability, and I hope to get closer to him in the future. ”

Although Shen Xi's words sounded like polite words, they were from the bottom of his heart.

Shen Xi does have respect for Wang Shouren, and hopes that this master of mind can hone more at the border pass and grow into such a prodigy in history who is both civil and military.

After Shen Xi saw all his colleagues, he returned to his desk and sat down, he just wanted to sort out his lecture case in preparation for the crown prince in the future, Xie Qian strode into the official room, after entering the door, he still lowered his head and looked at the military merit roster sorted out by the cabinet in his hand, and waved his hand to let the people who came forward to salute get out of the way.

"Shen Xi, come out!"

Xie Qian was not polite at all, and called Shen Xi by his name.

Shen Xi glanced left and right, feeling helpless in his heart...... Even the ass didn't sit hot, and the troublemakers came.

When Shen Xi followed Xie out of the door of the official room, the people in Zhan Shifu couldn't help but be envious.

Being able to have a good relationship with the cabinet scholars is equivalent to one more shortcut to promotion, but Shen Xi is the one with the shortest days and the least seniority in Zhan Shifu.

Regarding the criticism behind it, Shen Xi has long been surprised after hearing too much, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, his situation is like this, since he was the champion, there has been no shortage of jealousy and disobedience around him.

"Elder Xie Ge, is there something wrong?"

Shen Xi tentatively asked Xie Qian, who was looking down at the military merit roster.

"What did you do when you had nothing to do? Is this your military exploit? Xie Qian glared at Shen Xi, extremely stern.

Hey!? If you don't give me credit, you will put on a face for me as soon as you come, and I don't owe you any money, let alone provoke you, why?

"Xie Ge Lao misunderstood, this is the Border Pass Newspaper, Liu Shangshu personally wrote it, when will it become my own report?" Shen Xi asked in surprise.

Xie Qian's face was covered with black clouds, and he scolded: "You mean that the old man wronged you? Look, you just went to the border to send cannons, and your name is on the roster of this meritorious service, you are a civil servant, and you are serving in the Zhan Mansion, but you are making military merits, doesn't this make Your Majesty embarrassed? ”

Shen Xi couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this...... Xie Qian is obviously looking for trouble, but at least it's not a big deal.

Shen Xi knew on the road that Liu Daxia didn't give him much credit, but he didn't report the lowest fourth class, but reported a painless third class, tied with hundreds of generals and colonels, and Shen Xi didn't take it too seriously...... It's good that I didn't avenge my grievances, why do you think I'm at fault?

Shen Xi's face turned cold: "Xie Ge wants to complain, so he went to Liu Shangshu, but the student has never mentioned asking for credit." ”

Xie Qian pointed at Shen Xi, the nameless fire just now was finally in the past, in fact, he mainly wanted to give Shen Xi a "dismount", so that Shen Xi realized that your meritorious service was not a good thing, but it made the court feel embarrassed, and suppressed Shen Xi's heart, and then talked about rewards.

"You went to the border this time, and it was obviously the tolerance of the military department, why did you get to the ground and report that your kid was the emperor's errand? Fortunately, Your Majesty agreed, otherwise you would have been guilty of deceiving the king......"

Shen Xi slandered again: Why is the emperor not stupid? How much face I earned for the emperor this trip, don't you know?

“…… But your identity is not very good to give you an official and a knight, after all, you have been promoted too fast in the past two years, and you need to slow down, yesterday Ma Shangshu asked for merit for you, and the British Duke helped you to say the item, and finally agreed that you will not be promoted for the time being, Your Majesty will give you a house, ten slaves and maids, and the Ming diary will be rewarded by the palace. ”

Xie Qian finally made his intentions clear.
