After returning to the inn and having a drink with Zhao Wenqing and others, Shen Yun began to prepare to return to his hometown.

There are not many people in Beijing who know each other on this trip, and Ying Qian and Cen Shiwang look at these people, so they naturally bid farewell to each other earlier. Cen Shiwang's place was too far away, so he had no plans to return to his hometown, so he specially asked Shen Yun to bring a letter from home.

And the rest, there are only Fan Chun and Su Mo.

In Shen Yun's eyes, Su Yun is a person who has come and gone without a trace, although he knows that his family background is acceptable, but until now Shen Yun does not know where he lives. So now I can only say goodbye to Fan Chun alone.

Shen Yun could see the time, and waited until Fan Chun returned home, and then rushed over. After the prince Zhongyun had a hearty conversation with Shen Yun, he also recently had the intention of asking for release, so he was not surprised that Shen Yun was assigned to Anhua County, but said with some regret: "Back then, the eldest brother and his father resisted the invasion of Western Xia in Gyeongju, and they had quite a lot of political achievements. If Big Brother is here, he can tell you many things. ”

In an era when information transmission is extremely slow, it is naturally excellent to be able to get some news earlier. However, after some small talk, when Shen Yun was about to leave, Fan Chun suddenly reminded: "You have to be careful when you go, Li Gyufu, the prefect of Gyeongju, is a person who is extremely happy and self-serving, and if he encounters a war in the future, everything should be cautious." ”

Fan Chun has been in the center for a long time, although his official position is not large, but he is extremely familiar with what the chief officials of the state capitals in the world look like. Even if he hadn't met before, he could tell what the person's personality was.

Hearing Fan Chun's reminder, Shen Yun's heart slammed. It seems that the life of Gyeongju is not so easy this time.

Sioux House.

Scholar Su was helplessly persuading his little sister.

Since coming back, he was asked what kind of dispatch Shen Yun had received, and then he accidentally leaked his mouth. Her little sister has been clamoring to see Shen Yun. However, when has this been, a daughter's family, running over to find a young junior, no matter how you think about it, it feels a little unruly.

Of course, Su Shi is not the kind of person who is quite important to etiquette, otherwise he would not take Di Yao for granted in the imperial examination papers. As far as Confucianism is concerned, Yao Shunyu is an ancient benevolent monarch, an example of the emperors of the world, and there must be no rudeness.

But after all, men and women still have to pay attention to one point.

Su Shi asked helplessly: "Little sister, what is so good about that Shen Yun, teaching you to be so obsessed, is to ignore even the common etiquette." ”

was asked by Su Shi, and Su Xiaomei was also ashamed. But he soon regained his normal color, and said very naturally: "What the eldest brother said is a little wrong, Shen Sheng and I mostly talk about learning when we meet, just like the eldest brother and your group of friends." Moreover, until now, Shen Sheng has never known that I am my daughter's family. So, he and I are gentlemen's friends, where is there any personal relationship that the eldest brother said. ”

"Really?"

Seeing Su Xiaomei nodded, Su Shi said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to find a matchmaker and talk back to my little sister. Now it seems that there is no need for my eldest brother to break the bank. Thinking about your dowry, I'm worried about my eldest brother. I'm frustrated with your second brother, it's good to be able to maintain the family's livelihood, if you want to marry, alas, ......"

was pestered by Su Shi's nonsense, Su Xiaomei finally put out her thoughts and immediately went to find Shen Yun. However, he immediately asked Su Shi about the situation in Gyeongju.

Wen Tingyun once said: "The rooster is in the month of Maodian, and the track is frosty." "This is for the inn in the deserted village, and in Kaifeng Mansion, the time when the city gate is open is still in Chenshi, so there is no need to get up so early. On the morning of April, it was already dawn.

Zhao Wenqing and the others did not get permission from the ministry, so only Shen Yun returned to Qinzhou on this trip. Of course, although there are some sorrows and farewells now, after all, the field is proud, and people are a little more energetic when they say goodbye to each other.

Sitting in the front hall, Zhao Wenqing and a few people specially asked for some good dishes. After pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the three of them took out the letter from their arms at the same time and handed it to Shen Yun: "Since Dengke, he has been a member of the Heavenly Family, and his actions are naturally quite restricted. I can't wait for Brother Shen to get the Holy Favor, so I can only ask Brother Shen to tell your relatives and friends in your hometown. ”

Shen Yun knew that this letter to his family was full of joy after entering the department, as well as thoughts of his relatives in his hometown.

Although the good news has already been transmitted to their respective homes, in the end it is not the same as the letter written by me.

Shen Yun solemnly put the three letters in his arms, and then took out another letter from his sleeve: "Four brothers, I am in Beijing, and I don't know much, except for a few, there are only two brothers, Fan Zhongyun and Brother Su. I have already met Fan Zhongyun yesterday, but Brother Su had a meeting, but I don't know where he lives. Parting was in a hurry, leaving only a letter. If Brother Su visits, please apologize to him on my behalf. ”

Shen Yun said sincerely, but he saw the four of them smiling at the corners of their mouths, shook their heads at the same time, and then said in unison: "This kind of thing, it is inconvenient for me to do it for me." If you have anything to say, Brother Shen might as well tell Brother Su in person. ”

Shen Yun only thought that these were four people making himself happy, and shook his head helplessly: "If I have a doppelganger, I will leave one to wait for Brother Su to come." However, the holiday is urgent, but I don't know when he will come. ”

"At this time, I wonder if Brother Shen can wait?" A familiar voice sounded from behind him, which made Shen Yun surprised for a while, and then stood up and turned around with a smile: "I don't want to talk about Brother Su, Brother Su is here." Come and sit down, I also said that the next time we meet, I don't know when it will be. ”

Su Mo smiled, and bowed his hand to the few people present, and then said: "Since this is the case, then I am not welcome." I heard that Brother Shen was going to return to his hometown in the near future, so he came before. I don't want to almost miss it. ”

Before Shen Yun could answer, he heard a few people present say, "It's okay, it's okay, Brother Su sit down." The passenger ship back to Qinzhou will depart at noon, and I will wait for a few hasty chats before sending Brother Shen out of the city. And Su Mo has already discovered that except for Shen Yun, everyone else really knows that he is a woman disguised as a man.

Since he was recognized, Su Mo did not panic, but sat next to Shen Yun with a calm face, asked for a wine glass, poured the wine and raised it to Shen Yun: "Brother Shen is in a hurry to say goodbye, Su Mo will not say much, a glass of water and wine, and wish Brother Shen a smooth trip." In the future, Shi Eun has a smooth road and is making steady progress. ”

As soon as Su Mo finished speaking, he heard Zhao Wenqing shake his head and interject: "Brother Su's previous sentence, I think Brother Shen will not only accept it, but also like it very much." But in the latter sentence, I'm afraid that although Brother Shen will accept it, he won't like it. ”

Shen Yun was about to raise his glass, but when Zhao Wenqing said this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Why did Brother Zhao say this?" ”

"I see that you go to Gyeongju, which is obviously an extremely difficult place, but you are willing to do it. Moreover, the recent turmoil in the DPRK and China is indispensable, but you are willing to leave. Alas, if you want me to say, Brother Shen, in your heart, I'm afraid that you don't have any thoughts about the rise and fall at all. ”

Zhao Wenqing is still upset with Shen Yun. And I don't understand Shen Yun so indifferently, so I take this opportunity to complain. For such a frank person, even if he complained, Shen Yun could only smile: "What did Brother Zhao say, in fact, it was good for me to go to Gyeongju." After all, many senior officials in the DPRK and China have entered the center from the northwest, and along their footsteps, there is also a different scenery. ”

This explanation has been said countless times in the past few days, and Zhao Wenqing and the others are tired of hearing it. I won't say much about it here.

It's just that when Su Mo heard Shen Yun's words, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said: "Brother Shen is going to the northwest, and you must pay attention to the Xixia Liang clan." The war against the Great Song was caused by them for many years, and after each attack, they would send envoys to negotiate peace with the Great Song, and the princes of the court and China would often agree. ”

Speaking of this, Su Mo was a little worried: "The money and food to be paid for the peace talks are all drawn from the state capitals on Shaanxi Road, among which Gyeongju is the most. Therefore, every year, the Ministry of Officials goes down to check the merits, and the ratings of Gyeongju officials are very low. In the future, Brother Shen's career is only afraid that it will really be ruined. ”

Shen Yun actually didn't know.

It's just that since the officials have made a decision, and Zeng Gongliang said that, they understand that this is a test for themselves. If he can pass the test, it will be a smooth road from now on, just like Wang Anshi back then, he made outstanding political achievements in the local area, Wen Yanbo wrote directly that as long as he came to Beijing, he could take up the post of the pavilion without passing the examination of the pavilion.

But once it can't be passed.

Hehe, in the eyes of everyone in the court, he is just a nominal person. At that time, maybe even Zhao Ji will have doubts about the cabinet system he said.

Nodding, Shen Yun replied very cautiously: "I naturally save this." The current situation in Gyeongju needs someone to solve it, and I think I can give it a try. Shen Yun didn't say too much, but there was no intention of trying it in his words. Anyone can see that Shen Yun has the meaning of breaking the kettle.

After saying this, Shen Yun suddenly laughed: "You can rest assured." It is expected that there is no difficulty. ”

After a few more small talks, they called the carriage and hurried to the docks.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Shen Yun and Su Mo sat in one car, but the other four people crowded on the other.

The wharf in Bianjing is always so lively, and when a few people got out of the carriage, they saw that all kinds of boats were congested for miles. Fortunately, the passenger ship to Qinzhou happened to dock on the shore, and the boatman kept soliciting guests. It also saves you a long time to wait.

After saying goodbye to Zhao Wenqing and Su Yun, Shen Yun was about to board the ship, but at this time, Zhao Wenqing suddenly came up, handed Shen Yun a note, and then instructed very seriously: "Brother Shen, this note must be opened after you board the ship and leave." I will definitely surprise you when the time comes. ”

Zhao Wenqing has always been steady, but suddenly chattering so much aroused Shen Yun's curiosity. However, since they said that they would open the boat after opening, Shen Yun was not in a hurry, and stood on the deck and handed over to a few people, until a few people got in the car and went back, then turned around and walked into the cabin to arrange their accommodation.
