Xie Yun'er obviously didn't want to leave, but she insisted on leaving Beijing, Shen Xi felt that she probably had obsessive-compulsive disorder, which was the result of a typical feudal ideology, in order to repay her kindness and take care of the overall situation, she had to sacrifice her personal happiness and be mean to herself in order to be at ease.

When sending Xie Yun'er away, looking at Xie Yun'er's reluctant and tangled look, Shen Xi wanted to say, "Lady, your masochism is very serious." ”

Before Xie Yun'er left, she had lived a loving husband and wife life with Shen Xi for a period of time, and when she left, Shen Xi suddenly felt a little unaccustomed.

There are many things that you don't think about without experiencing them, and once you experience that wonderful taste, you will form a certain habit, just like an addiction, and it will be difficult to calm down.

In order to adapt to Xie Yun'er's life after leaving, Shen Xi can only rely on work to anesthetize himself, but the problem is that Shen Xi's current work is too leisurely.

I only go to teach the prince a lesson on the fourth and ninth days, and even if I add a lecture at other times, it won't take much time.

When he was in Tingzhou, he could still pass the boring time by helping Hui Niang run a business, or writing and printing this publication, but now he doesn't even have any spiritual sustenance.

Officialdom is a place that is as hard as the imperial examination!

It took Shen Xi more than three years to complete the road of the imperial examination for more than ten years or even decades, and ascended to the sky in one step. But after entering the officialdom, he is still at the bottom of the food chain, and he wants to climb up often, but there is no shortcut like the imperial examination, he can only polish it little by little, and when those old guys are boiled to death, it will be his turn to take the position...... The most important thing in officialdom is seniority.

Shen Xi spent a few days sorting out the theory of mind, and his reputation was not yet to the extent of writing a book for himself, so he had the right to pass the time.

Xie Pi admired Shen Xi's theory of mind, and would visit Shen's house as long as he had spare time, on the one hand, to discuss psychology, and on the other hand, to have a relationship with Shen Xi.

Even Shen Xi felt that Xie Qian's son was a little too enthusiastic, with Xie Qian's status in the court, there was still a seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, and Xie Pi really didn't need to get too close to him as a six-grade petty official.

After September, the weather gradually cooled, Shen Xi gave Zhu Houzhao a lesson step by step, talking about popular history, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Yuan and Ming dynasties, Zhu Houzhao listened so-so.

Although Zhu Houzhao didn't really want to go to class, Shen Xi's class was more interesting than others, so it was okay at the beginning and insisted on taking class.

Wang Wei talked to Shen Xi, to the effect that he should follow the rules when teaching, and no longer mention some irrelevant learning content to the prince, such as promoting weaving and jujuing, which greatly reduced the interest of Shen Xi's lectures. Zhu Houzhao heard a lot about the history in the back and felt that it was not very interesting, so he asked Shen Xi what was interesting, every time Shen Xi was silent at this time, and the result of continuous disobedience to the prince was that Zhu Houzhao ignored Shen Xi.

After his interest in Shen Xi's history class waned, Zhu Houzhao began to skip class again, and Shen Xi had no good way to deal with it.

This is not allowed, that is not good, the slightest transgression is a violation, which seriously restricts Shen Xi's hands and feet and the enthusiasm of the lecture. Fortunately, Shen Xi also figured it out, anyway, it's a mess, so there's no need to be so serious. Since others have no problem with the bear child, Shen Xi feels that he doesn't need to be reckless.

It is true that once or twice with fun things can hook the heart of the bear child, but this ultimately belongs to drinking to quench thirst, the emperor's patience is limited, once the emperor is unhappy one day, the punishment for demotion is light, and it is a direct "make it to never be used" then woo hoo lament.

Now Zhu Houzhao is not interested in playing crickets, but he is very addicted to kicking and jujuing, and Shen Xi is very suspicious that Zhu Houzhao will have a "second high" around him in the future.

Autumn passed in a hurry, the first snow in early winter came early, the weather gradually became cold, and Shen Xi had to change into heavy winter clothes when he went out.

When he first arrived in the capital, Shen Xi didn't have time to walk around the city, but now he has leisure, as soon as Xie Yun'er leaves, Lin Dai is still making a small temperament, and it is not very interesting to be bored at home, and there is nothing to do when he goes to Zhan Shifu, so Shen Xi will go to all parts of the capital to take a look and appreciate the customs of the Ming Dynasty.

But even if the capital is prosperous, it makes people feel tired of shopping for a long time, Shen Xi summed it up, the Beijing division is nothing more than a lot of people, many shops, many yamen, Zhengyangmen in the chessboard street, the lamp market, the city god temple market, the inner city and Chongwenmen and other downtown areas, Shen Xi walked a few times, found that it was just so, much worse than the commercial pedestrian streets and department stores in later generations.

In the back, Shen Xi doesn't like to go out very much, at most in the teahouse around the Jiaozhong Fang, find a relatively secluded window seat, and move the place to write the case from the study at home to the outside, just like going to a café to write in the future.

Everyone else is busy begging for a living, but Shen Xi has evolved into an idler, before the age of fourteen, life seems to have run out, sometimes Shen Xi thinks about it himself.

On this day, Shen Xi just came out of the house, and saw an official sedan chair coming to the door of his house from a distance, and when the person in the sedan chair appeared, Shen Xi almost couldn't recognize it, but it was an old acquaintance Hong Xun.

At this time, the flood was full of red light, looking radiant, without the decadence of the past, the new official took office, and even the previous wretched spirit on his body was gone.

"Shen Gongzi, long time gone." When Hong Xun came down, he greeted Shen Xi.

Judging from Shen Xi's turbid face, he shouldn't know the relationship between him and Xie Yun'er, otherwise he would be a rival in love.

Shen Xi saluted: "Young Master Hong, this is ...... Which one has a secretary and a yamen? ”

Hong Xun returned the salute and said with a smile: "Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses, deputy commander." ”

Shen Xi grinned, congratulated two sentences, but he was thinking in his heart, it was really different if there was a shade, he worked hard to get a champion, and he came out to be an official to be a six-grade Hanlin cultivator, and he was a six-grade examiner, and he directly put the deputy commander of the five-city Soldiers and Horses Division of the seventh-grade.

Even if you are a seven-grade official, you have to take an official sedan chair when you go out, is this a sincere show of martial arts? I'm a six-grade Zhan Shifu official, and I haven't mixed up with the official sedan chair yet.

Hong Xun heard Shen Xi's congratulations, his face was somewhat embarrassed, his official came from the ancestral shade, and there was an essential difference between him and an official like Shen Xi who came out of the normal imperial examination, not one or two points.

Since Shen Xi had gone out, Hong Xun did not force himself to sit in Xie Mansion, but accompanied Shen Xi to a large teahouse at the intersection of Andingmen Street and Shuntianfu Street, and after finding a seat at the window on the second floor and sitting down, Hong Xun sighed with emotion: "My father originally wanted me to go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to provide for my errand, but I ...... Now there is no official vacancy there, so I have to go to the Terracotta Division first. ”

Shen Xi nodded.

Anyway, these yamen of the Jingshi army were all opened for these second ancestors, and it is necessary to say that the commanders and deputy commanders of the soldiers and horses of the five cities have been concurrently served by the county kings or people with lords in all dynasties, that is, there are too few princes and nobles in the Hongzhi Dynasty, so Hong Xun has the opportunity to enter and serve, and the starting point is very high.

"In the future, I will be responsible for arrest and inquiry, and I will ask Shen Gongzi to take care of it." Hong Xun added.

Shen Xi smiled and asked, "There is only a Wenchen in the next place, and he works in the Qingshui Yamen like the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Mansion, how can he help Hong Gongzi?" ”

Hong Xun's tone revealed some helplessness: "As a court official, it's always good to be able to help some." ”

Shen Xi could see that Hong Xun was not confident in serving as the deputy commander of the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division, and he should have felt that with his ability, he was not enough to be qualified for this errand of the seventh grade.

However, as far as Shen Xi knows, the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division is only a functional yamen under the military department, and what he does on weekdays is just to assist the Jingxian Yamen, saying that he has the duty to arrest and punish treacherous evils, but more is to dredge the canals, fight fires, coordinate public security and other trivial matters, the deputy commander of the Hongturd Hall is equivalent to the deputy chief of the police department in the capital in later generations, these trivial matters are not his turn to do it himself, at most he is a supervisor, there is no difficulty at all.

Shen Xi chatted with Hong Zhuo about some official matters, and then asked, "Hong Gongzi came here today, won't he just want to tell him that you are an official, right?" ”

Hong Xun's face was a little gloomy: "On weekdays, when there is not much to do, I want to come over for a walk, does Shen Gongzi have any news from Tingzhou?" ”

Shen Xi shook his head, he naturally knew that Hong Yun was asking Xie Yun'er, he wouldn't tell Hong Yun about Xie Yun'er's visit to the capital, it was purely asking for trouble.

Hong Xun sighed lightly, and did not continue to dwell on this issue, it could be seen that he cared about Xie Yun'er very much. But the more he cared about it, the more uncomfortable it made Shen Xi feel...... My own lady is always remembered by others, and my heart is very uncomfortable!

Shen Xi said: "When will Gongzi Hong become a father?" ”

At the mention of the child, Hong Xun's face improved: "It's almost time, when the time comes, Shen Gongzi must come over to drink a glass of water and wine." ”

Shen Xi nodded, thinking, I don't even know where your house is, what are I going to do when you give birth to a son?

Hong Xun took out an invitation card from his arms, "Shen Gongzi, this invitation was sent by an acquaintance, saying that it was to invite you and me to a banquet together, and today I will come over and deliver the invitation to you by the way." ”

What acquaintance will invite him and Hong Xun at the same time when he sends an invitation?

After seeing the name of the invitation, Shen Xi was relieved, not to mention, this person does have some "friendship" with him and Hong Xun, this friendship is simply unforgettable, it was the violent beating of Hong Xun in the capital city of Tingzhou, which made Hong Xun return to Beijing miserably, and was noble for the evil party.

Only then did Shen Xi remember that Gao Mingcheng had already gone to the household department, and he would definitely take this precious grandson with him. When Gao Chong came to Beijing, he naturally had to pay homage to the head snake first.

Gao Chong was not familiar with the place in Beijing, and knew that the Hong family was a noble family, so he actually took the initiative to invite Bing to release his previous suspicions, which made Shen Xi feel unexpected.

However, what Shen Xi didn't expect was that Hong Xun actually accepted the invitation and forwarded the invitation to him.

The chief examiner of the Shen Xiting Prefecture Examination was Gao Mingcheng.

Gao Ming City arrived in the capital, Shen Xi was supposed to visit as a student, but Shen Xi really didn't want to be too involved with this big stolen official, because Shen Xi knew that Gao Ming City's limit was approaching, and the emperor did not treat Gao Ming City for the time being, and it was the emperor who took care of his own face, but Emperor Hongzhi did not know his mistakes and did not change, under the principle of overkill, Gao Ming City would be cleaned up sooner or later.

"Tingshui Building? Where? Shen Xi had read the invitation, and he had some impressions of the place where the noble invitation was, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Hong Xun thought for a while and said, "It is said that it is a family opened by people from Tingzhou...... The place of Fengyue, with Shen Gongzi's age, should not have been visited...... I have sent someone to inform Mr. Gao and ask him to change places. ”

Shen Xi glanced up at Hong Xun, did this guy forget how badly he was beaten by Gao Chong in the first place? There is no barrier to the title of "Gao Gongzi"!

After Hong Xun's reminder, Shen Xi remembered that this Tingshui Building was the green building opened by Yu Niang, at that time, Zhou Fatzi gave him an invitation to invite him to "visit", Shen Xi naturally didn't want to take the initiative to have anything to do with Yu Niang, if Yu Niang was ordered by Liu Daxia to ask him to do something, he would never be invited, and would naturally come to find him.

"Gao Gongzi? But at the beginning...... The grandson of Kochifu? Shen Xi's tone was not very friendly and asked.

"Exactly." Hong Xun nodded slightly, "Now that the Gao Zhi Mansion has been transferred from the governor of Henan to the household department as Langzhong, Gao Gongzi has entered the country to study, and when he sees Shen Gongzi in the future, he will still call you Mr." ”
