Chapter 589: Two Promotions a Year (Second Shift)
Shen Xi had just returned to Beijing, and Xie Qian was about to have another problem.
To resist is the fire screen of 50,000 Tatar cavalry, this is not a small fight, the Mongols are brave and good at fighting horses, if it is 35,000 cavalry, it is good to say, even if there is a 18,000 can deal with it, 50,000 at once, there may be a chance of winning in a head-to-head duel, but people are mobile and flexible to fight and run, even the military department Shangshu Ma Wensheng has no good countermeasures.
The emperor thought about it, didn't you Xie Qian enter the good strategy of resisting the enemy before, but now that others can't do it, I will count on you.
Xie Qian carried the emperor's expectations, and looked at Shen Xi carefully for two days, but he had no clue, but fortunately Shen Xi came back at this time, and Xie Qian pushed this problem to Shen Xi.
But Shen Xi didn't have any particularly good ways to deal with this, because he knew very well the situation of the Ming frontier's defenses, the fire screen was menacing, and the purpose was clear that it was to rob, maybe this side was ready to meet the enemy, but as a result, the army ran away after grabbing, and the army couldn't even see people's horseshoe dust in the past.
Counting on the two-legged one to chase the four-legged one?
However, due to the disparity in status, Shen Xi could only receive Xie Qian's errand, and simply had two days off before he returned to Zhan Shifu to work, and in these two days, even if he tried his best, he had to come up with a countermeasure for Xie Qian that could barely fool him through.
In fact, Emperor Hongzhi didn't expect Xie Qian, a civil servant, to be a blockbuster in military affairs, as long as this countermeasure was relatively Zhouzheng, the errand would be dealt with.
Shen Xi is in the dust at this time, the family needs to settle down, and he has to take care of Zhang Lao Wu and others, when he returned home, Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai had already cleaned up their rooms, and when it was time to eat in the evening, the two wives looked at him with blank eyes, and now the obvious problem, where to spend the night at night, he needs to make a proper explanation.
"Xianggong should accompany Dai'er, she just entered the door, and she is more attached to Xianggong."
Xie Yun'er showed her eldest woman's demeanor at this time, and took the initiative to be humble, but this was a bit against her will, in order to rush from Nanjing to the north, she basically didn't have time to love Shen Xi'en, and now it is rare to return to her own place in the capital, but she wants to push her husband to others, which is not a good feeling in her heart.
Shen Xi nodded and said, "That's it, I'll accompany you tomorrow." ”
"Hmm."
Xie Yun'er saw that Shen Xi agreed so happily, and felt a little lost in her heart.
In Xianggong's heart, Dai'er is more important!
Xie Yun'er, who has always been broad-minded, can't help but think crankily about emotional issues, she knows that she will have to sleep alone tonight...... That unforgettable taste she tasted when she was in Tingzhou Mansion, a woman who has tasted the joy of fish and water, obviously has a husband by her side, but it is really difficult to endure it, not to mention that Xie Yuner is no longer in her teens, and she can't always be calm and deal with some things.
At night, Xie Yun'er really had insomnia.
She reminded herself over and over again: "I just returned to the capital, I should rest more, don't always think nonsense, I originally robbed Dai'er of the position of his wife, and I want to compensate her more." ”
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, so she simply got up and lit a candle to read a medical book, wanting to calm her mind, but she couldn't get into the book.
After all, it was Shen Xi who was "considerate", just when Xie Yun'er wanted to go out to blow the wind and calm down, she suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps, if nothing else, it should be Shen Xi coming this way, Xie Yun'er happily greeted the door, and after seeing Shen Xi, she was a little embarrassed: "Why did Xianggong come over?" ”
Shen Xi didn't have any more words, what he wanted to do now was to be a domineering man, and he wanted Xie Yun'er to know who was the head of this family.
When he got to the bed, Shen Xi mentioned it slightly: "I put Dai'er to sleep first for my husband." ”
"Then Xianggong still has to rest more......"
Xie Yun'er originally wanted to say that it would be good for Xianggong to come over and have this heart, but unfortunately she couldn't say the rest of the words.
I don't know how long it took, when the candle tears rippled, Shen Xi got off the bed, because it was the height of summer, he just casually put on a coat, tied his clothes and took it to the table, and used candle tears to make up for the inclined side of the candle, the candlelight became dim, and after sitting down, he put the four treasures of the study and began to write at the desk.
"The husband is tired and busy with business?" Xie Yun'er got up and leaned on the head of the bed, and asked Shen Xi with a smile, she liked to see Shen Xi's back when he was doing things seriously.
"Hmm."
Shen Xi replied, but couldn't help yawning, "There are Tatars in Beiguan, Scholar Xie asked me to write a countermeasure for him, I am just a civil servant, not a military general, I can only write down the things in my head, and I should deal with official affairs." ”
Hearing Shen Xi say things so simply, Xie Yun'er smiled lightly, and said with pride: "Xianggong is a capable person who works hard, Xianggong has made such a great contribution in Quanzhou, I want to come to Your Majesty to promote Xianggong." ”
Shen Xi sighed: "It's good if you don't demote me......"
Shen Xi had just come back and was busy until the middle of the night, Xie Yun'er had been with him, Shen Xi wanted to polish the pen and ink, so she worked for her to add fragrance to her red sleeves, and the husband and wife enjoyed this silent warmth.
It took Shen Xi two hours to write his military affairs strategy, after all, he did not delay the matter for a long time when it came to the peace of the border passes and the well-being of the people in Beijing and Shanxi.
However, Xie Yun'er, because of the fatigue of the journey, coupled with the previous entanglement with Shen Xi, and the strong sense of happiness of getting along with each other, unconsciously lay on the table and fell asleep, until Shen Xi pushed her, she became confused, and fell asleep on the bed with Shen Xixiang's help.
After lying down, Xie Yun'er's hair was slightly unkempt, and her sleeping appearance did not look peaceful and tranquil, but had a somewhat simple posture, which was completely different from the ladylike image she usually maintained.
Shen Xi couldn't help but smile, he didn't know how embarrassing Xie Yun'er's sleep was before, maybe only after becoming husband and wife, would he know each other as well as he does now.
……
……
The next day, Shen Xi went to the cabinet very early and handed over his military affairs to Xie Qian.
Xie Qian looked at it briefly after getting it, and his face was a little puzzled...... It was hard for him to imagine that Shen Xi would write a long essay of two or three thousand words in one night, and he couldn't help but think, this kid wouldn't be simply fooling things, if he wanted to make me feel that the number of words was too much, it would definitely work?
Xie Qian said angrily: "Your Majesty is anxious to ask, you have listed so many terms, how can the old man read it for a while?" ”
Only then did Shen Xi know that Xie Qian was going to digest his military affairs strategy, and then simply summarize it and then go to Emperor Hongzhi to give advice, Shen Xi hurriedly said: "Does Xie Ge need the student to explain in detail?" ”
Xie Qian glared at Shen Xi angrily, he was busy with business, and he didn't have much time, but he wanted Shen Xi to explain to him, where did this make his old face go?
"No need, the old man himself thinks that you go back first, if there is any news, I will send someone to your house to inform you." Xie Qian said a word, casually taking Shen Xi's military strategy into his arms, and seemed to disdain. But when Shen Xi turned around and took a step, he glanced back, quickly took out the question, and carefully read and comprehended the content as he walked.
With a person like Xie Qian, who is almost militarily blind, it is really difficult for him to digest all of Shen Xi's military policies.
Maybe in the sage articles and votes, Xie Qian is not a little higher than Shen Xi, but when it comes to miscellaneous matters, Xie Qian's attainments are far less than Shen Xi from the era of information explosion, and these miscellaneous things are exactly where Xie Qian can use Shen Xi, if he doesn't understand, he can hand it over to Shen Xi to do, and he feels satisfied.
Shen Xi had just handed over the military affairs policy to Xie Qian in the morning, and the official who had promoted him from the Ministry of Officials in the afternoon was delivered.
To Shen Xi's surprise, after the trip to Quanzhou, he finally got the reward he deserved, from the original Zhengliupin Zhan Shifu Right Chunfang Right Zhongyun, promoted from the Wupin Right Chunfang Right Yude, still the Hanlin Academy revised, the East Palace lecturer.
Two promotions a year, from the sixth rank to the fifth grade, Shen Xi's promotion speed can be said to be quite fast, after all, this is in the capital Yamen, or in the Hanlin system, which is known for its difficulty in promotion, Wang Hua, who is also the champion of the Ming Dynasty, was promoted from Hanlin to the right Yude, but it took more than ten years.
Because there is only one person in the establishment of the right edict of Zhan Shifu, Shen Xi knows that his promotion means that Wang Hua has also been promoted, and when he went to the ministry to hand over to Shen Xi, he asked by the way, and learned that Wang Hua has been promoted to the right concubine of the right spring fang and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
In addition to him and Wang Hua, many official positions and ranks under the Hanlin system have changed, mainly slightly promoted, but except for him, they are all in the position of Hanlin official for three or eight years, and there is no one like him who is promoted twice a year.
Wang Wei, the top boss who has always been concerned about Shen Xi, was transferred from the position of the original Zhan Shifu Shao Zhan Shi and was promoted to the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, but he stepped down as the speaker of the East Palace and was still the Japanese speaker.
This means that when Shen Xi teaches the prince's knowledge in the East Palace in the future, he no longer needs to be ordered by Wang Wei'er, except for Wang Wei, other East Palace speakers really don't have such a big opinion on him.
Shen Xi took his official uniforms and seals from Wupin and returned home, dressed under the service of Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai, and stood in front of the mirror, with a very beautiful feeling.
Shen Xi didn't expect that he had grown up unconsciously, and he was no longer the little little man who only had a brain before, as if he was a man who stood up to the sky.
Xie Yun'er said happily: "I said that Your Majesty will promote the master, Dai'er, and instruct the kitchen to prepare a table of good wine and food, and celebrate the master's promotion tonight." ”
Unconsciously, Xie Yun'er began to call Shen Xi "master" again.
Lin Dai nodded in response, and hurriedly went to inform Hong'er and Lu'er, who were preparing to cook.
Because Shen Xi gave Ning'er to Xie Duo, no one responded to the cooking before, so Hui Niang and the Zhou family discussed and sent all the girls except Xiaoyu to go north with Shen Xi, so that Shen Xi's life in the capital could be taken care of.
In this way, Hong'er and Lu'er are responsible for food, laundry, sweeping and other chores in the mansion on weekdays, and as for manual work, they are handed over to Xiu'er and Zhu Shan to do, and if there is really anything, Yunbo and Tang Hu will help.
Shen Xi's mansion in the capital finally has the appearance of a wealthy mansion.
As the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion, Yun Bo is only in charge of the purchase of goods, and the financial power falls into the hands of Xie Yun'er.
In Zhou's words, my Hanwa'er will do big things in the court in the future, and as for those bits and pieces of housework, they will be handed over to Yun'er and Dai'er, if they can't do it well, don't want me to recognize them as daughters-in-law!
