In the end, Shen Xi did not inform Xie Yun'er about seeing Hong Xun, otherwise it would affect the harmony between the husband and wife.

After the family moved to the Xie family's old house, Xie Yun'er's mood improved, but she is currently in a state of idleness, and she just counts the family's accounts every day.

Shen Xi saw that Xie Yun'er, who had been busy for seven or eight years before, was almost sick now, or should really find something for her to do. But as the wife of an official of the imperial court, she is not suitable for coming out to show her face, and it is not suitable to open a pharmacy to sell dog skin plasters after all.

Seeing August, the weather is gradually cooling, Shen Xi's small life is comfortable, and he finally doesn't have to sweat every day when he is on an errand in the East Palace.

On this day, Shen Xi sent the booklet of the prince's living life to Zhan Shifu, but saw that there were a lot of people in Zhan Shifu, and they were all greeting a court official.

Shen Xi fixed his eyes, but it was an old acquaintance Xie Qian, as a cabinet scholar, Xie Qian was the object of compliments and scolding of others wherever he went.

Shen Xi thought to himself, didn't you come to me?

Shen Xi originally wanted to hand in the record book and go out quietly, so that he would not have to meet Xie Qian, and he would not cause trouble for himself.

But Xie Qian's eyes were sharp, maybe he had intended to wait for Shen Xi, and when he saw Shen Xi, he greeted him from afar: "Isn't this Shen Zhuangyuan?" ”

There was no way, Shen Xi could only step forward to salute.

The smile on Xie Qian's face was a little cunning, he looked Shen Xi up and down, and nodded: "It's only been a few days, and Shen Zhuangyuan looks a little stronger again." ”

Shen Xi was suddenly disgusted...... This is to look at people, not animals, and praise people for "strong"? But in front of the cabinet scholars and colleagues, he could only count the courtesies, and was about to turn around and leave under the pretext of going home, but was stopped by Xie Qian and said, "There is something to trouble the people of Zhan Shifu to deal with." ”

The officials of the Zhan Mansion suddenly became cautious, the cabinet scholars would never come to gossip, they had already guessed that Xie Qian was coming, but Xie Qian didn't say it before, and others couldn't ask, but now they finally knew what the reason was.

Xie Qian took out a booklet from his arms and asked the people present, "Who can understand this?" ”

The booklet was small and thick, not like the style of the Ming Dynasty's notebook, not even like a book, Shen Xi looked at it carefully, if he added a red holster outside, he could pinch it out and raise his arms and shout.

The people from Zhan Shifu read the booklet, but no one said why, which made Shen Xi feel a little surprised...... What's in there?

Someone asked, "Why didn't Elder Xie Ge go to the Hanlin Academy to ask?" ”

"I went there last month, and I passed it on from beginning to end, but no one knew it, didn't you come to Zhan Shifu for advice? Could it be that in my Ming Dynasty, there is no one who even knows this state script? Xie Qian's face was not very good-looking.

Shen Xi probably understood what was going on.

It seems that the envoy of the Dayan Department submitted a classic, and no one knew what the text was on it, which sounded a little strange, to say that the classics were nothing more than recorded in Mongolian, usually the Mongols themselves would be accompanied by a Chinese translation, even if they did not translate, the scholars in the Ming Cabinet would also translate the corresponding text into the emperor. But now he has encountered the dilemma that the Mongolian classics cannot be translated.

Shen Xi's official quality is not high, and the booklet has not been delivered to Shen Xi for a long time.

However, Xie Qian took the initiative to take the booklet, looked around, and finally presented it to Shen Xi alone, and asked, "Shen Zhuang is young and erudite, have you ever seen the content on it?" ”

Shen Xi took it and opened it, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, to say that this text is not unfamiliar to him, isn't it English? The Ming Dynasty now has trade contacts with Mongolia, Tibet and Persia, but has no contacts with European countries, and only a handful of people in the entire Ming Dynasty know English.

In fact, this is not a "national letter", but a part of the excerpt from the Christian Bible, and some editors' experiences during their missions.

Shen Xi raised his head and looked at the officials of Zhan Shifu present, some people wondered why Xie Qian asked him alone, Shen Xi was a little embarrassed at this time, if he said that he knew it, it seemed to be a little arrogant, and if he didn't know it, it would be to shirk his responsibility, which made him feel like he was riding a tiger.

Xie Qian seemed to see something, took the booklet back, put it in his sleeve, and then said to the people present: "If no one knows, the old man will go...... Shen Zhuangyuan, you come out with me. ”

is almost a copy of the Hanlin Academy, on the surface it is for Shen Xi to send it off, but in fact, it has something to explain. However, Shen Xi happened to finish his official business, and he could also go home while sending Xie Qian out.

When he went out, Xie Qian didn't have anything to say, and when he arrived at the gate of Donghua Gate, Xie Qian thought thoughtfully: "Shen Xi, the canons of the last years of Hongwu that you presented before, Your Majesty is very satisfied with it, and is ready to let you continue to take care of the revision of the "Daming Huidian", what do you think?" ”

What an honor it is to be appreciated by the emperor!

But Shen Xi doesn't think so, he is now working hard enough with the prince, it is rare to work for a day and rest for a day, if he takes care of repairing books, his life will be too busy and boring.

Shen Xi hurriedly refused: "If you go back to Xie Ge Lao, I am afraid that the students will have more than enough heart and not enough strength." ”

Xie Qian glanced at Shen Xi coldly, which probably means that if someone else has the emperor's order, which one will do a good job without sleeping at night? Now it's just for you to squeeze out a little rest time to fix the book, and just push it off! At the moment, he said angrily: "It's okay if you don't repair the book, then you tell the old man, what is written on it?" ”

Shen Xi said: "If the students really know, will Elder Xie Ge be exempted from the errand of repairing the book in the next place?" ”

Xie Qian was surprised and looked at Shen Xi carefully.

This kid actually dares to talk to an inner university scholar about the conditions, doesn't he want to live? Or do you want to be belittled and hit the cold bench?

Shen Xi knew how to grasp the measure.

If you want to say that you do personnel when you meet people and do ghost things when you meet ghosts, Shen Xi almost saw through Xie Qian's character...... Among the three scholars in the cabinet, Liu Jian and Li Dongyang belong to the kind of old-fashioned and mean people, and they will never be allowed to talk to them about the conditions, but when they arrive at Xie Qian, they "discuss everything".

Xie Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Then it depends on how much you know...... To tell the truth, this is a thing offered by the Mongolian envoys, saying that it is a classic of practice that can prolong life, and the old man has found a lot of people these days, and none of them know the words on it. If you don't know him, don't come nonsense, this is not a record of the prince's daily life, if there is a deviation, be careful that your head is not protected. ”

Listening to Xie Qian's words, Shen Xi probably understood, some time ago, the prince's reading was spot-checked by Emperor Hongzhi had been reported to the cabinet, Xie Qian was cunning and cunning, how could he not know that Zhan Shifu dealt with the emperor?

Shen Xi said: "The students do know the words above, if Xie Ge is accommodating, the students will know everything." ”

Xie Qian stroked his beard and asked with a smile: "The well-educated Hongru is at a loss, you kid actually knows?" Okay, go home with the old man and translate the content above, Your Majesty is in a hurry to read the content...... If you speak, I will be the first to spare you. ”

Xie Qian didn't take Shen Xi to other places, but to his house, obviously wanting to fight for merit!

Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youzhu wanted to read the classics of longevity, but others couldn't translate it, but he Xie Qian found someone to translate it, which is a lot of credit.

Following Xie Qian back to the mansion, Shen Xi was somewhat awkward, going to Xie Qian's mansion for no reason would always make people think that he was cursing up with the powerful.

But since Xie Qian insisted, he couldn't refuse, so he had to give an order to Tang Hu, who was waiting outside Dong'an Gate, and he took the official sedan chair with Xie Qian to Xie's mansion.

In front of Xie's house, Xie Qian and Shen Xi got off the sedan chair one after another. Xie Qian entered the door in a hurry, and the door was a little surprised: "The master is back?" ”

"I won't stay long, send someone to clean up the study." Xie Qian commanded in a cold tone.

As a cabinet scholar, and a few years old, Xie Qian does not take care of his family much, although a diligent bachelor like him is a good courtier, but not necessarily a dutiful husband or a kind father or grandfather, the more loyal a minister often neglects his family.

Menzi hurriedly said: "The little one will go and inform the lady......"

"I told you to tell someone to clean up the study, can't you hear me?" Xie Qian's eyes widened, and he jumped up in anger.

Menzi was shocked and hurried to inform people. Xie Qian took Shen Xi all the way past the main courtyard, and said as he walked: "The humble house is simple, don't be surprised." ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, if such a yard is called simple, then his home is a complete kennel.

Xie Qian is a cabinet scholar in the end, he lives in the capital is an official mansion, although it is not decorated with splendor, at first glance it looks ordinary, but it is much more spacious than the courtyard of ordinary people, Shen Xi initially observed, this is a duplex with Jiangnan garden style courtyard, north and south to four directions, east and west also have their own side courtyards, including gardens, rockeries, fish ponds, pavilions and other buildings, compared to the current Shen Xi to live in the Xie family's old house, at least more than double.

When he thought of the architectural pattern, Shen Xi naturally thought of the pond of fish next to the rockery in the backyard of Xie Mansion, I wonder if that group of fish has grown up a little now under his "feeding"?

Xie Qian took Shen Xi to the study, and before he entered the door, he saw a beautiful girl standing at the door of the study with a book of "Women's Training" in her arms, and she seemed a little scared when she saw Xie Qian.

"Why are you here?"

Xie Qian glanced at the girl curiously, the girl lowered her head, and couldn't reply.

But it is said that this girl, with a bookish atmosphere, melon seed face, is beautiful, and in her bright eyes, the dark eyes are extremely flexible and extremely intelligent, and she looks like she is only twelve or thirteen years old, but she has turned all beings upside down.

Shen Xi knows that this is the real Miss Qianjin who is raised in the boudoir, on weekdays, she is definitely not out of the door, and when the flowers and bones mature, from one door, to another with a sedan chair, she will be isolated from the outside world by a high wall for the rest of her life, and giving birth to children, husband and children is all she has in life.

"Alright, you go back to the inner courtyard first."

Xie Qian looked a little anxious, and asked why the girl was here, and beckoned to Shen Xi again, "What are you doing, come in!" ”

Shen Xi was urged, so he had to go to the study.

That day, the fairy-like girl raised her head slightly, looked at Shen Xi carefully, her eyes were as clear as blue waves, perhaps it was Shen Xi's arrival that caused the girl's curiosity, and she paid attention to him for a long time, and her beautiful little face was full of novelty.

Shen Xi didn't know the identity of the girl, it was estimated that she was Xie Qian's daughter, or granddaughter, after all, he didn't know much about Xie Qian's family structure.

Entering the room, Xie Qian took out the booklet in his arms again, but he didn't let Shen Xi directly translate and record the text, but asked Shen Xi to tell him the general meaning.

Shen Xi took the booklet, looked up, and just saw that the girl was still in the yard, looking at the study from afar, Shen Xi was a little strange, could it be that the young lady of this wealthy family had never seen the living, and was curious about him, an uninvited guest?

Or, have the two met before?

This feeling made Shen Xi feel a kind of discomfort in his back!

Shen Xi quickly reined in his mind and said the general meaning of the booklet, Xie Qian frowned: "This is the Laoshizi Longevity Sutra?" ”

After all, the content of the scriptures is different from ordinary books, Xie Qianguang listened to the content translated by Shen Xi, and knew that Shen Xi did not seem to be open-mouthed, but this scripture was too obscure after all.

But how to say it still has to be sorted out, after Shen Xi roughly translated the full text, and then explained the content one by one, he said a word, Xie Qian recorded a sentence, and in less than an hour, a thousand words of "Bible" hymns and preaching notes were recorded.

Xie Qian held the written things and was confused.
