Chen Xi was able to continue studying with Li's consent. Zhou was very happy and knew that the next day, Li would leave the county town and return to Taohua Village. Zhou went to the street to buy some gifts for Li to take them back. Dingdian,...

Li did not hold a grudge against Zhou, and did not mention the matter of coming to the city to settle the score with Shen Mingjun and his wife, but said that he was visiting the three grandchildren.

After Li went to the dormitory to see the eldest son of Shen Yongzhuo, who was the eldest son of Shen Yongzhuo, and encouraged him, he did not follow Shen Mingjun home to spend the night that night, but took Shen Mingxin to the lobby of Shen Family Hutong in Ximen to spend the night. Although the old generation passed away one after another, since Li came to the city, as the person with the highest seniority in the youngest family, it would be bad if he didn't visit the Shen family's house.

Chen Xi went home from school the next day, and Li had already returned to the countryside. Zhou came back from the tailor's shop very early and sewed clothes for Chen Xi at home.

"Yanba, your grandmother allows you to study, you must work hard. If your studies decline in half a year, I will see that I won't deal with you!"

Zhou was very happy, but there were many words that threatened his son, which was considered an urge to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi was timid and quickly helped Zhou's thread the needle and handed the cloth head on it, acting extremely well-behaved.

When Shen Mingjun came back in the evening, he stretched his face.

Zhou quickly stepped forward to inquire, and Shen Mingjun looked worried: "When I was about to finish work, the master came over and said that the officials could not find the old Taoist priest Xiaolang mentioned, so I would take Xiaolang to the county government tomorrow. We may have to move to another place to live. The master said that a distant relative came from the provincial capital and wanted to live here."

Yi's family, who was originally happy, suddenly became sad and dismal.

The Wang family is rich, and logically speaking, it should have made friends with officials and officials to attract them as a supporter.

But when the chief clerk of Xia went to the Wang family to receive the silver from the doctor of the Ministry of Works, Chen Xi saw that Wang Changnie was very perfunctory towards the chief clerk of Xia. At that time, he thought that he had lost the silver. Later, after warning Chen Xi and his son not to get too close to the government, he confirmed that the feeling at that time was not an illusion.

Later, when I inquired, I found out that the Wang family had caused trouble. Because of business matters, Wang Changnie's eldest son, Wang Lingzhi's brother, is still in prison in Wuchang Prefecture, Huguang.

Furthermore, the yard was originally because of a carpenter hanging, and Wang Changnie felt it was unlucky, so he allowed the Shen family to live in a while for a while to accumulate some yang energy. Now he feels that it is almost done, so he feels that outsiders have taken advantage of it in vain. It is estimated that some distant relatives are just an excuse, because there are many vacant wing rooms in the Wang family mansion, so where can they be placed?

Of course, it is not impossible to continue living. Just take out real money and silver, but this is not something Shen Mingjun can afford.

"What should we do if the head of the family? It would cost a lot of money to find a place to live in the city! The family had not had much surplus, and now they still have to support the study of a naive kid. Where can I have the money to rent a house?"

"I'll go outside the county town tomorrow to see. There are many idle houses in the city wall, and the rent may be cheaper than in the city!"

As the pillar of the family, Shen Mingjun was bound to blame himself for not being able to make his wife and children live a good life. In fact, he could make money to support his family when he worked in the Wang family, but he wanted to hand over the monthly money to his mother. All he gave to his wife was the change rewarded by the owner on weekdays. Even if Zhou worked in the tailor shop, it would be difficult for his family to stay in the city.

Chen Xi didn't say anything, but he saw everything.

The next day, Shen Mingjun took Chen Xi to the county government office.

When I arrived at the county yamen gate, the yamen runner politely led the two of them through the side door. When I came to the study room on the left side of the lobby, I saw the chief clerk Xia. The chief clerk looked very ugly. In the past few days, I went around in the city and still couldn't find the old Taoist priest who wrote the playbook and the book in Chen Xi's mouth. The chief clerk Xia suspected that he had been deceived by Chen Xi.

"Please pay tribute to Lord Xia."

Shen Mingjun came up and kowtowed Chen Xi. Xia Zhuan was a ninth-rank official from the court. When the people saw the officials, they would naturally kneel down.

The chief clerk Xia no longer had the same kindness as before and said coldly: "Young Master of the Shen family, we have met again. But I wonder if the old gentleman you mentioned had ever looked for you?"

Chen Xi widened his eyes and shook his head. When the chief clerk Xia heard this, he looked stern.

The official position was crushed to death, and Doctor Lin put pressure on the Han County Magistrate, and Han County Magistrate passed the pressure on the Xia Chief Archive. The Xia Chief Archive naturally applied the pressure to the people below, but even if the yamen broke their legs, they could not find anyone. He could only blame the culprit on the initiator, that is, Chen Xi.

The chief clerk Xia did not talk to Chen Xi anymore, probably because he felt that talking to a child would damage his identity. He said to Shen Mingjun in an official voice:

"Let me say that, the county magistrate is urging him tightly. The Queen's birthday is about to be around, and the prince is about to be one year old. The doctor named him and wanted to present the playbook to the palace to celebrate the two nobles. If you can't find someone and can't get the new playbook, you will have to recite this responsibility."

The empress in the mouth of the chief clerk of Xia is Empress Zhang, the wife of Emperor Hongzhi.

During the reign of Emperor Hongzhi, he favored Empress Zhang and had no other concubines in the harem. The crown prince was Zhu Houzhao, the Emperor Zhengde who was later famous in history for his injustice. Zhu Houzhao can be regarded as born with a golden key in his arms. As the eldest son of Emperor Hongzhi, he was named the crown prince only five months after he was born.

It is now the fifth year of Hongzhi, and Zhu Houzhao turns one year old in September.

Chen Xi felt unhappy after hearing this.

Originally, listening to operas is just for fun, and it cannot be used as a meal. But now Lin Zhongye, a doctor at the Ministry of Works, actually wanted to use the Southern Opera Book to offer to the palace to flatter and invite favor. The original author of the old Taoist priest could not find it, so he pushed the matter to his father and son. This is really the word "official".

Shen Mingjun did not dare to speak, but Chen Xi argued: "Master Xia, what does it have to do with the Queen and the Prince's death with us?"

Children's words are free and ruthless, and Chen Xi relies on this point. As long as the words are not too ruthless, no one should be concerned about a child.

But the chief clerk of Xia was obviously forced by the superiors and said sternly: "It didn't matter, but if you send the playbook and cause such big setbacks, it would matter. If there were no playbook you presented and those storytellers spread the Yang family generals so much, Doctor Lin would not force the county magistrate, and I wouldn't come to ask you today."

"Young Master of the Shen family, you are a little bitch. Look for this old man for me. If you find someone, you will naturally not treat you badly!"

Chen Xi said nothing anymore. Since the chief clerk Xia decided to put the blame on him, he had no way to refuse.

On the way home, Shen Mingjun's face was dark. He had never seen the old Taoist priest Chen Xi mentioned at all, so where did he find it? Besides, his son said before that person had left Ninghua and went to the provincial capital. If the person could not be found, offending the government would be a trivial matter, and the father and son might even have to go to jail.

Chen Xi was a little angry. He had a deep understanding of the darkness of this world. Anyone who is an official is a master, and there is no pressure to bully others. Unfortunately, he is just a child and has no fame and can only swallow his anger.

"Dad, go to work, I'll go to school now." When I was almost home, Chen Xi said to Shen Mingjun.

Shen Mingjun said goodbye to his son absent-mindedly.

Chen Xi had no intention of going to school. He had to hurry up and write the book. He could not let his father get sued. The officials bullied others by relying on their power. He could only try every means to solve the problem.

However, before writing the playbook, he decided to go to the calligraphy and painting shop to see if the fake paintings sold were sold. Many things have happened in the past two days, and he has no time to care about this.

When I arrived at the calligraphy and painting shop, I hanged it on the wall with all my paintings.

Just when Chen Xi was extremely depressed, the shopkeeper came over: "This time someone came to ask, and asked about the price. I didn't dare to make a decision, and now I'm just asking what you mean."

Chen Xi thought that someone should know the background of Wang Meng's landscape paintings, so he wanted to see if he could find a bargain. Originally, the shopkeeper didn't think that the painting could be sold, and there was not even a psychological price, so he made an excuse for the owner to be in office. Now he did it himself and just wanted to make him think about it.

"The gentleman who painted me said that even if he sold a few taels of silver, it would be fine."

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded: "If it's only a few taels of silver, it shouldn't be difficult to sell it. You can wait for the money tomorrow."

"Thank you, the shopkeeper."

Chen Xi bowed respectfully to the shopkeeper and then left.

In fact, the Wang Meng landscape paintings on the market are at least 100 taels of silver, and it is not surprising that the rarest ones are even sold for thousands of taels. With Chen Xi's fake level, outsiders can't tell the truth at all.

But now the family is in urgent need of money, so Chen Xi doesn't care about too much anyway, the fake paintings only take him some time, and at most it's enough to make a few more paintings later.

When Chen Xi returned home, he started writing a script.

He knew not many Peking Opera repertoire, and he had to be familiar with it and close to historical facts. After thinking about it, only Dingjun Mountain, which comes from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, is more suitable.

In order to hurry up, Chen Xi saved as much as possible when writing the playbook, and only retained the essence of the original work. After writing the whole article, it only took a few turns to the play, but the total number of three or four thousand words is already considered an amazing masterpiece for Southern Opera.

Because Lin Zhongye, a doctor at the Ministry of Works, wanted to use this playbook as a birthday gift, Chen Xi finally added some birthday greetings. After writing the playbook, Chen Xi read it through and confirmed that there were no mistakes before he stopped. His handwriting was very mature, and ordinary people could not tell that it was written by a child, and they were not worried that the Xia Zhuan was in trouble.

"Yanwa, why are you at home? Didn't you go to study?" Chen Xi had just finished writing the playbook when a sound came from the door. It turned out that Zhou and Lin Dai were coming back.

It was just noon at this time, and Chen Xi hid the playbook behind him like a conditioned reflex.

Zhou suddenly raised his face, "What is hiding? Take it out!"

Chen Xi had to honestly hand over the plan to Zhou. Zhou opened it and read it, but she couldn't read it, so she could only read it.

"It's so good to write, it's neatly crafted. Who wrote it?"

Chen Xi smiled apologized and said, "Of course, the old man wrote three playbooks. When he thought it was not good, he threw them next to him. I picked them up. I went to the county government with my father before, and the government asked us to find the old man to make a playbook. I took it out to make up the numbers. In this way, the people in the government should not make things difficult for us anymore."

Zhou did not doubt his son, so he pinched Chen Xi's face and praised: "It's still a silly boy. If the old man didn't leave this book, we would probably be in trouble. Maybe the old man had expected this to be prepared for us. The old man is really a master, and he has made it for us."

Chen Xi pretended not to understand: "Mom, do you think this was left by the old man on purpose?"

"What else? Do you think it's so coincidental that the old man is not much or too much, just write a lot of money? If you meet the old man again in the future, be sure to bring him home. Mom should thank him very well."

Chen Xi stuck out his tongue and honestly agreed.
