Chapter 725: Wax Lance Head

Zhang Yanling thinks that he is meticulous and seamless, but in fact, he lacks a sense of the overall situation, acts radically and narrowly, and blindly wants Shen Xi to "get acquainted", and the result is that the plan is full of mistakes and omissions. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhu Youzhi has a very strong affection for Empress Zhang, and the reason why Zhang Yanling succeeded in sending women into the palace twice before and after is mainly because he arranged an identity for women at the beginning that the emperor would not be nostalgic for, Zhu Youzhu felt more exciting and fun, but he didn't care too much about the situation of these women.

At the same time, Emperor Hongzhi was very worried that Empress Zhang would know about this, and kept hiding it, lest it leak a little news.

In this case, if Shen Xi "evaporates the world", even if the matter is stabbed to Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi will not blame Shen Xi, but will anger Zhang Yanling, who has bad intentions and wants him to not come to power.

After a busy night and a more complete and detailed response plan, Shen Xi finally breathed a long sigh of relief, but to his surprise, early the next morning, colleagues who had worked together in the Hanlin Academy and Zhan Shifu came to visit together to celebrate Shen Xi's son's full moon.

Even if you can't come because of something, let someone send a gift to show your gratitude.

"Shen Yude Tianding, why don't you tell us? We came over early to congratulate...... Fortunately, I didn't miss the time, today happens to be Ling Gongzi's full moon bar? ”

Zhu Xizhou was very enthusiastic, because Shen Xi was the best friend of him in the Hanlin Academy, so he became the representative of the court, "This wine tonight must be eaten." ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "It's rare for you to come to my house, welcome." Tonight, I booked a few tables of banquets at the wine shop at the mouth of the alley, and I had a good chat with you. ”

Shen Xi rarely socializes with his colleagues on weekdays, mainly because he is much older than others and has no common topics. But now that he has a son and becomes a father, it means that he is already an adult, and there are naturally more things to talk about.

Now that Shen Xi is in the ascendancy, even if he doesn't have much interaction with others, many people want to find opportunities to get close to him, after all, this is a potential stock worth investing in.

This time, Shen Xi took the initiative to set up a banquet, which was undesirable for most people.

After everyone congratulated, Shen Xi personally sent the guests out, and Zhu Xizhou said with some emotion: "Shen Yude has been the champion for two years now, and he has served as a lecturer in the East Palace, a lecturer in Japan, and presided over the Shuntianfu Township Test, which is really envious of us. ”

Shen Xi said politely: "I am only a shallow learner, and there are many places that need to be learned from your predecessors." ”

Shen Yude was polite. Tonight's wine, let my brother come and invite, do you think? ”

Zhu Xizhou's family background is also average, and he actually offered to be the host, or he wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Shen Xi.

"Don't work Brother Zhu to break the bank, the dog is full of moon, and it should be entertained by a banquet below!"

Shen Xi sent the guests to the carriage and the official sedan chair to leave, on the surface the clouds were light and breezy, but he had noticed that there were people watching at the main gate of the Shen Mansion, such as the hawker who was looking around with apricots on his shoulder, where was there a fruit seller in such a quiet alley? And that merchant, what the hell do you only have some rotten cloth in your burden? Are you selling things or throwing out garbage?

Shen Xi expected that these people were all sent by Zhang Yanling, in order to keep an eye on Shen Mansion's every move and prevent Shen Xi from sending people away.

Shen Xi saw off guests at the front door, and at the back door of Shen Mansion, the door opened a crack, Zhu Shan first poked his head out to take a look, and found that there was no one in the alley, so he opened the door widely, and then he and Xiu'er carried a sack that seemed to contain human-shaped things, and sent it to the carriage that drove out of the side door, and then the two jumped into the car and prepared to drive away.

As a result, the carriage only drove a few steps, and more than a dozen people rushed out of the corner of the street in the distance, and even stopped them with the car.

"What?"

Among these people, half of them were wearing soapy clothes, and when they came up, they shouted at Zhu Shan, who was driving.

Yun Bo, who was standing at the door, saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to defend: "Several officials, this is the family of Shen Yude of Zhan Shifu, please make it convenient." ”

"What's convenient, we are ordered to arrest the rebels, no matter which yamen you belong to...... What you carried into the carriage just now, now open the curtain for us to check!" ”

The yamen was almost indiscriminate, and came over and lifted the curtain directly, and the curtain opened, and there was a "Ah! There was a scream, and in addition to Xiu'er, there was also a woman sitting inside, but it was Lu'er...... At this time, Lu'er sat upright, and an open sack was at her feet, revealing white cotton.

Yun Bo hurriedly said: "A few officials, this is the daughter of the Shen Mansion, you can't make a mistake!" ”

"Make-a-time? We suspect that she is a rebel. ”

A group of yacha shouted loudly, dragged people down from the carriage, and a few people dressed in household clothes came behind them, first checked the sack to make sure that it was all cotton, and then looked at Lu'er again, and shook his head, meaning that this is not a "chaotic party" to be arrested, and the yacha just waved his hand to let people leave.

"It's really strange, I saw that the sack was filled with people, how did it turn into cotton in a blink of an eye?" These families are all from Jianchangbo Mansion and look at each other.

Yacha was a little puzzled: "Several, since Uncle Jian Chang wants to arrest the rebellious party, why don't you go into the mansion to get people, instead of waiting outside?" ”

"We are also acting on orders, if you want to know why, it will be clear if you ask the lord, but who dares!?"

Even if it is a person from Jianchangbo Mansion, he doesn't know what the origin and background of the woman sent into Shenxi Mansion is. Zhang Yanling didn't dare to publicize the matter of Emperor Hongzhi's women outside the palace, if the emperor's reputation was damaged, Zhang Yanling would not be able to bear it even if he was the queen's younger brother, and the end would be very miserable.

Zhang Yanling sent the woman to Shen Xi's mansion, not really to make a big deal about it, but the main purpose was to threaten Shen Xi with this and force Shen Xi to comply.

Shen Xi sent off the guests and returned to the study, and it was not until after lunch that he left the mansion and went to Zhan Shi's mansion, and there were people staring at him all the way.

……

……

The Shen family's side was calm as usual, and Zhang Yanling was thinking about how to deal with the woman who was dedicated to the emperor.

After taking people into Beijing, Zhang Yanling took a sneak look and found that she was indeed a ******** beauty. Zhang Yanling was already widowed and sick, and he was itchy for a while, and he had the heart to pick this flower, but he was afraid that he and the emperor would share a woman and expose it. Now that the person is placed in another courtyard, Zhang Yanling is like an ant on a hot pot, restless.

"Sir, the ladies asked, how many courtyards are you going to stay in tonight?" Just after noon, the people in the house had already passed the news of the inner house to Zhang Yanling.

Zhang Yanling has a lot of women, and his idea is that I want to live more freely and faster than the emperor, the emperor is just a queen, but I have a group of wives and concubines, and I enjoy all the beautiful blessings.

In the Earl's Palace, more than ten wives and concubines each have their own courtyards, and whichever courtyard he stays in, which courtyard will leave a door for him and light a red lantern, because Zhang Yanling will often return late, and people are drunk and don't argue about things, this red lantern is the most eye-catching symbol.

"Benjue has something to do tonight, so he won't come back." Zhang Yanling said impatiently.

"Yes, yes...... Master, you should be careful when you go out, I heard that it is not peaceful outside, and now Shuntianfu is arresting the rebels everywhere. ”

The person who spoke was an old servant of the Zhang family, who was now in his sixties, and cared about Zhang Yanling as if he were his own child. Hearing that the servant who bought vegetables came back to tell Zhao that there was a government messenger near Jinggongfang, he warned Zhang Yanling.

Zhang Yanling naturally knew what was going on, in fact, the Shuntian Mansion dispatched the officials, and it was he who took out the letter of worship and asked the government Yin to help. He waved his hand, pulled the person back, and continued to ponder what to do with the beautiful woman.

After a long time, Zhang Yanling finally made up his mind, so that people called his henchmen, and after explaining it, the whole person was much more relaxed.

……

……

Shen Xi came to Zhan Shifu and prepared a lecture for the next day to enter the palace to give a lecture to the prince, unlike in the past, when others ignored him, he seemed to be the most popular figure in Zhan Shifu.

As the chief examiner of the township examination, a group of colleagues always expressed their closeness to Shen Xi intentionally or unintentionally, and then pretended to inadvertently ask Shen Xi what books he was reading recently, what he had learned, and took the opportunity to speculate on what kind of exam questions Shen Xi would have.

At this banquet in the evening, Shen Xi was not prepared to be light, even those who did not come to his house in the morning to congratulate him on his Tianding, he also sent invitations.

In the evening, Shen Xi packed up his things and was about to go home, when Zhang Yanling, the uncle of Jianchang, sent an invitation, inviting Shen Xi to come to the house of Jianchang to have a "banquet", and specially explained that it was a "family banquet".

"Moving so fast? I'm afraid that I don't understand the seriousness of the problem, and I want to intimidate me so that I can show my loyalty to you, right? ”

Shen Xi took the invitation into his arms, he didn't plan to go to Jianchangbo Mansion at all, no matter what attitude Zhang Yanling had towards him, he had only one attitude towards Zhang Yanling...... Courteously stand.

No matter whether the Zhang brothers coerce him or lure him, in short, he can't label himself as a relative.

When I returned home, I had just entered the study, and before I could sit down, Yun Bo had already entered the room to report.

"Master, the wine shop has been contracted, a total of thirty-six taels of silver...... It's a lot of money. ”

Yun Bo is used to being diligent and thrifty, this time Shen Xi invited eight tables of banquets at a time, and pointed out the big fish and meat, Yun Bo saw the number after getting the bill, and couldn't help but feel sorry for his master.

"It's okay, the value of this silver is spent, the child is full moon, even if it costs a little more, it doesn't matter, don't we still have a shop with income?"

Although the plaster shop doesn't make much money, now that its reputation has opened, it has an income of twenty or thirty taels of silver a month, plus Shen Xi's money, it is not difficult to feed the family. Shen Xi is no longer in a state of sitting on empty food, and it is necessary to spend some money to entertain colleagues and enhance the relationship.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the people invited by Shen Xi came one after another.

Zhu Xizhou, Wang Zhan, Lun Wenxu and other colleagues from the Hanlin Academy basically came, and even Sun Xu, who was already the head of the household department, also made a special trip to congratulate Shen Xi.

How many people go to the banquet will bring some gifts, and there is a hustle and bustle in the wine shop, and the sound of congratulations is endless. The shopkeeper of the wine shop is very attentive, he knows that the people who go to the banquet today are basically Hanlin officials, and he doesn't know who will be the supreme minister in the future, if he hates these people, he will wait to close the business.

……

……

The wine shop was boiling, the wine and food were on the ground, and the people who went to the banquet were all full of oil, but the people in charge of Jianchangbo Mansion were tired and hungry, smelling the aroma of wine and food in the night sky, and swallowing vigorously.

"People are eating and drinking, but here we are drinking the northwest wind. Anyway, people are in the wine shop, why don't we find a place to rest and pour some tea? ”

A servant of Jianchangbo's Mansion couldn't help but complain.

came out and stared at Shen Xi for a day, first staring at the gate of Shen Mansion, and then followed Shen Xi to Zhan Shi's Mansion, they were exposed to the scorching sun outside the gate of the official office for a long time, and then followed Shen Xi home, and finally arrived at the wine shop of this banquet, at this moment, not only was he hungry, but his throat was about to smoke.

"No, no, the lord has an order, before this kid visits our Jianchang Bo Mansion tomorrow, he can't lose people. Whenever this kid has any trouble, he must inform the lord as soon as possible. ”

"This kid...... What exactly was done? Why did the lord bother so much? ”

"Who knows? The lord didn't explain it carefully, but he heard that he sent a woman to the Shen Mansion...... This kid is a little blessed, and the lord doesn't give women to anyone easily. I heard that the girl is very beautiful, tsk, a flower is inserted in the cow dung, this kid is a wax gun head at all, and it is estimated that the woman is not powerless, it is better to send people out to the brothers to enjoy. ”

"Hahaha......"

A few people laughed, but they didn't dare to laugh too loudly, so as not to be discovered by Shen Xi, who was sitting by the window in the restaurant. But they didn't understand any anti-tracking skills, and their every move was exposed to Shen Xi's field of vision.
