Shen Xi flipped through the Four Books and Five Classics in the study, frowning and thinking deeply from time to time, in fact, he was figuring out what topics he would try in Shuntianfu Township this time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is not only a champion Hanlin official, but also a lecturer in the East Palace and a lecturer in Japan, and the question must always be a little level, not a truncated question, but it can not be too simple, but also pay attention to the "rule of etiquette and music" recommended by the Hongzhi Emperor, to meet these conditions, the question is not simple.

Fortunately, there was a long time for Shen Xi to think, and he could completely combine the excellent eight-strand essays of the Ming and Qing dynasties that he knew.

Just when Shen Xiwu and I forgot to fall into some kind of fantasy thoughts, Zhu Shan hurriedly pushed open the door of the study and walked in, and said in a panic: "Master, it's not good, someone in front of the backyard door carried a sedan chair and put it there, saying that it was someone from the Shouning Marquis Mansion, and they sent someone over." ”

"Giving it away?"

Shen Xi thought to himself, this is because he turned away the people who gave gifts from the Shouning Marquis Mansion, Zhang Heling was unwilling, so he changed the gift to give it to others?

It's the back door, and it's still a person, this way of giving gifts is really unique.

"Close the door and refuse to accept it." Shen Xi said angrily, "Don't bother me here in the future, you have to learn to use your own brain." ”

"But sir, it's a woman who sent it, and it's very beautiful, standing in front of the door with a baggage, very ostentatious, saying that she will live in our ......house for a long time in the future."

Shen Xi thought to himself, this matter is really rare, who the Zhang brothers want to woo, it is understandable to send a beauty, but what kind of person is he, a fifteen-year-old Hanlin official, who has already married a wife and a concubine in the family, and there are still one or two people waiting to enter the house, so he simply and directly sent him a woman, sincerely wanting to make his family restless?

Shen Xi had a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

Because this is not the first time that the Zhang brothers have sent him a woman, the last time was when he was hunting in Nanhaizi, Zhang Yanling directly invited him to a tent with a woman, although in the end Shen Xi did not have anything to do with the woman, but if the matter was publicized, it would have a great impact on his reputation.

When Shen Xi came out, it happened that Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai also came out of their respective yards, and they had just learned about the situation in the backyard from the maid.

"Xianggong, why did the Marquis of Shouning Mansion send a girl over?" Xie Yun'er looked puzzled, she didn't believe that Shen Xi was involved with anyone outside.

Lin Dai next to her pouted: "Do you still need to say it?" He must have provoked a woman outside! ”

"Dai'er, how did you talk to the master?" Xie Yun'er complained, and asked Shen Xi again, "Xianggong, but you want to go to the backyard to take a look?" ”

Shen Xi really had to go and see it at this time, so he nodded immediately, and went to the backyard with Xie Yun'er and others, only to see a woman standing at the door of the backyard, half a head shorter than Lin Dai, slightly plump, but her body was a little attractive, but it looked a little ordinary in appearance, at best, Shen Xi gave her an eighty points, her lips were jade, with a bit of a woman's style between the corners of her eyebrows, and her face pretended to be pitiful.

Although Shen Xi was not very impressed, he could vaguely identify that it was the woman who "spent a good night with" with him in the autumn of the thirteenth year of Hongzhi.

"Lord Shen, please take in the little girl, the little girl has nowhere to go, woo woo ......"

When the woman saw Shen Xi, her face was full of sadness, and she knelt down head-on, and she didn't kowtow, but just wiped her tears with a handkerchief, not to mention that she really squeezed out a few tears.

Shen Xi thought to himself: "What an acting school!" ”

"Xianggong knows her?"

Xie Yun'er's eyes suddenly became sad, her father-in-law had a woman outside, and she was found at the door, as a wife who respected Shen Xi very much, how could she not be sad?

Shen Xi didn't answer, but said solemnly: "This girl, although we have a relationship, we don't seem to have a relationship. You shouldn't come to my house for help even if you're in trouble, right? ”

The woman said: "The little woman also knows that taking the liberty of disturbing will definitely make Shen Gongzi embarrassed." But the little girl really has nowhere to go...... It was Uncle Jianchang, he bought the slave maid, and he wanted to use the slave and maid to envelop Lord Shen, Lord Shen is a righteous man and a gentleman, but Uncle Jianchang ...... Woo, he broke his promise, did not let the concubine leave, and insulted me in every way, and even asked me to pretend to be a female Taoist priest who practiced divination and sent me to the palace...... Woo, it's bright in broad daylight, and the little woman really doesn't want to say ......"

In one sentence, Shen Xi felt the seriousness of the problem.

Zhang Yanling is not a big deal to find a female Taoist priest to enter the palace, but the problem is that the female Taoist priest entered the palace just for divination and practice?

"This is not the place to talk!"

Shen Xi didn't want to know too deeply, if this woman really had anything to do with Emperor Hongzhi, then Zhang Yanling would have a reason to blackmail him, in fact, Zhang Yanling had already shown an attitude by sending this woman to his mansion, and even what this woman said was probably instructed by Zhang Yanling.

Shen Xi turned his head, his face was gloomy, and Xie Yun'er asked in a low voice, "Xianggong, how can this be good?" ”

"Settle people down, something...... It is only possible to think in the long run. ”

Shen Xi never thought that Zhang Yanling would make such a trick.

Sending people here is not so much to threaten him, but rather to say that Zhang Yanling specially used it to "disgust" him...... You are a dignified uncle, as for such a small belly chicken intestine and my little Hanlin official?

But the more powerful the person, the more difficult it is to offend, people just want to disgust him, but Shen Xi has no way.

The woman entered the courtyard, and as soon as the courtyard door was closed, she rushed to Shen Xi with an arrow and cried, "My lord, the little woman's words are not finished yet." In fact, Jian Changbo sent the little girl into the palace and got the blessing of His Majesty......"

"Enough!"

Shen Xi interrupted the woman's words sharply, "What did you do when you entered the palace, I don't want to know, you are just a guest in my mansion now, if you talk nonsense, I guarantee that you will not be able to get out of this gate." ”

The woman behaved aggrieved, the corners of her mouth curved downward, and she seemed to be very sad, but she thought in her heart: "I didn't plan to go out in the first place!" ”

Shen Xi asked the maid to go to the side courtyard to find a side room to settle the woman, while he entered the study with Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai, and before he sat down, Xie Yun'er had already hurriedly asked: "Xianggong, the woman's origin seems to be very simple, she is ...... Your Majesty."

"That's exactly what worries me. There are some things that I have to explain to you clearly, so that you don't think too much. ”

Shen Xi explained the incident in the paddock last year, when she heard that Shen Xi had nothing to do with this woman, Xie Yun'er trusted Shen Xi and nodded again and again, but Lin Dai didn't think so, is there a cat in the world that doesn't steal?

“…… As for what Jian Changbo will do with her afterwards, I don't know anything, but now it seems that Jian Changbo is likely to send this woman to the palace again, tempting His Majesty and succeeding. Shen Xi sighed.

"Uncle Jianchang wants to make the prime minister bear the infamy of disloyalty and injustice? Xianggong has nothing to do with her, and the person was sent to the palace by Jianchangbo, what does it have to do with Xianggong? ”

Xie Yun'er spoke completely from Shen Xi's position.

Shen Xi sighed: "It's good if things are so simple, but now that Jian Changbo has sent people over, he is obviously putting pressure on me to obey my relatives and party in everything and follow their orders." ”

Xie Yun'er gritted her jade teeth with hatred: "The relatives are really annoying and hateful, they are trying to frame the father-in-law." ”

"It's not that simple, there are some things that are unfounded, but if you leave people in the house if you are so unclear, you may be in big trouble." Shen Xi said, "The most important thing now is to send people away, and you have to hide it from your relatives." ”

Although Shen Xi spent the night with this woman, his words were unfounded, and could not be used as evidence that Shen Xi robbed a woman with Emperor Hongzhi, and Emperor Hongzhi was obviously not very rare about this woman, otherwise he would definitely find a reason to leave people in the palace, or let Zhang Yanling help raise them outside the palace, if nothing else, he could be summoned into the palace to adjust his mood, Zhang Yanling did not dare to send it to his mansion.

Xie Yun'er and Lin Dai were full of worries, Shen Xi comforted her, but she made up her mind that she must not compromise, but fortunately, when she saw this woman, Shen Xi had already expected what Zhang Yanling would do next.

As long as people are in the house, Zhang Yanling deliberately publicizes the matter, even if Emperor Hongzhi has no idea about that woman, and the matter is finally verified to be true, he will hate Shen Xi and even condemn him......

Of course, this is a practice of killing 3,000 enemies and self-inflicting 800, if the courtiers know, Zhang Yanling will not be able to eat and walk around, but if the two sides really tear their faces, it may not be that the other party will really make this decision.

This kind of major event related to her husband's official reputation and future, Xie Yun'er didn't ask too much, and everything was up to Shen Xi.

Shen Xi didn't dare to make too direct movements, because at this time, his mansion must have been stared at by the people sent by Zhang Yanling, and now that the people have sent it, the next step is to put pressure on him to compromise, and if he refuses to give in, he will tell Emperor Hongzhi about the matter through a certain channel.

For the sake of the present plan, it is necessary to send people away as soon as possible, and it must be done in absolute secrecy.

"Zhang Yanling, you underestimate me too much, you can send a woman to the palace, can't I let a woman evaporate from the world?"

Shen Xi couldn't care about anything at this time, what Zhang Yanling did to him was to endanger his life and the safety of his family, and he had to use all means to resolve it.

But in order to paralyze the other party, he also had to pretend to be scared and frightened, close the door of the mansion tightly, and even the maids and servants were not allowed to enter and leave the mansion, and only when the other party relaxed did he have the opportunity to send people away quietly.

……

……

In Jianchangbo's Mansion, Zhang Yanling was holding a copy of "Golden Vase Plum", sitting on the Taishi chair in the study leisurely sipping tea and reading, and the servants came in to report the situation.

"Someone sent? Very good, tomorrow I will find a few officials from the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Mansion to visit him and let him know that he is afraid. Zhang Yanling sneered, "As long as this woman is in his mansion, this kid will be a frightened bird, I want to see why he is so majestic with me." ”

The servant asked with some surprise: "Master, that Shen Xi is just a petty official from the fifth grade, why should you be angry with him?" ”

"What do you know, the official of the East Palace of Zhan Shifu, and the emperor's daily official, although he is from the fifth grade, the future is unlimited. If he can't be used by me, I must not keep him, so as not to endanger my Zhang family. Hmph, I think I am a little clever and talented, and I have the emperor's appreciation, so I dare not take my Zhang family in my eyes? ”

Zhang Yanling's eyes were almost bursting with fire, and it was Shen Xi who directly drove back the gift-giver from the Shouning Hou Mansion, which angered Zhang Yanling.

Zhang Yanling was angry, and there was another reason, that is, his eldest brother admired Shen Xi very much.

Zhang Yanling wanted to prove that he was more far-sighted than his brother, and he was not willing to be just an earl, he wanted to further become a marquis, and even hold the position of military power......

This is the youthful and enthusiastic Zhang Yanling's heart is extremely inflated, since his sister became the queen, everything has been smooth, he does not allow others to suppress him, and he doesn't want to be an uncle who only relies on nepotism to ascend to the throne.

"But sir, who will you let go tomorrow? Those officials of the Zhan Mansion may not give you face......"

"Just do what I tell me, I can't dispatch them, just go in the name of the Hou Mansion, these people don't give me face, don't they even give Shou Ning Hou face?"

The servant did not dare to say anything, and hurriedly went out to find someone to pass the word.

In fact, the matter is not a big deal, just need to spread the news of Shen Xi's son's full moon, and find a few officials from the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Mansion system to go to Shen Xi Mansion to congratulate them, isn't it a normal thing to have a friendship between colleagues?

Zhang Yanling used this to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, so that Shen Xi could see the situation clearly and sell himself to take refuge.
