After Shen Yi returned to the palace, he had a meal with his father and talked about what happened to the little maid in the morning. After making sure that there was no problem, he returned to the guest room to rest.
After returning to the guest room, Shen Yi used the wood block sent by the little maid to light the stove in the room, and the room suddenly became warm.
These exquisite fire charcoal are actually just low-end accessories for the guest rooms of the Jin Palace.
As long as you stay in the guest room, just say hello, and someone will bring a bucket full of bath water. And if Shen Yi is willing, he can also find a little girl like the little maid in the morning to come over and "warm the bed."
After all, it is really too cold in the twelfth lunar month.
Of course, Mr. Shen currently neither understands the services of Prince Jin's Mansion nor has any intention of doing so. After lighting the stove, he made some hot water himself, washed briefly, lit a lamp, and dug out Mr. Lu I started to carefully read through the few "examination materials" that Mr. Qin gave him before I said goodbye.
After all, the main purpose of his coming to Jiankang this time was to take the exam. He should study his studies when he should, and he could not put the cart before the horse.
Shen Yi's foundation is very solid. He is already familiar with books such as the Four Books and Five Classics, and does not need to carry them with him. Therefore, this time he only brought these examination materials and some annotations of the great sages of the past dynasties on the classics.
At this time, in the cold winter of January, Mr. Shen was lighting the stove in the Jin Palace and reading at night, which was quite romantic.
While Shen was studying in the guest room in the backyard, a sedan slowly stopped at the main entrance of the front yard of Prince Jin's Mansion. After the sedan stopped, a middle-aged man who looked about forty years old and dressed in purple stepped out. The sedan came out, and after the middle-aged man got off the sedan, he strode towards the gate of Prince Jin's Mansion.
At this moment, the main door of the palace was still not open, but the side door had been opened. Several people at the entrance of Prince Jin's palace and the concierge bowed respectfully after seeing the middle-aged man.
"I've met the prince!"
This middle-aged man is none other than Jin Wang Li Rui of the Chen Dynasty.
This prince of Jin was the brother of the late emperor, who was less than one year younger than the late emperor. When the late emperor died of a sudden illness six years ago, many ministers in the court thought that the prince was young and wanted to invite Jin Prince Li Rui to take charge of the court. , became the new emperor of Dachen.
However, the late emperor left an edict to pass on the throne, and the Empress Dowager Sun had a tough attitude. For the sake of his own power, Prime Minister Yang Jingzong did not want an adult prince to ascend the throne. Therefore, the matter ultimately failed to happen, and Da Chen's throne was still the same as that of the time. The nearly ten-year-old prince succeeded.
Facing the salutes of these servants, Prince Jin showed no expression as he walked into his palace. As soon as he reached the front yard of the palace, a young man in purple robe greeted him.
The young man looks to be eighteen or nineteen years old, with a delicate appearance and a certain nobility that cannot be concealed.
"Father, you are back..."
This young man is none other than Li Mu, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty.
Although Prince Jin is younger than the late emperor, he gave birth to children earlier than the late emperor. This prince of Jin is more than three years older than Da Chen today. It is also for this reason that when the imperial power was handed down six years ago , only Prince Jin will become a popular candidate.
And there is a reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince welcomes his father here.
This afternoon, Jin Wang Li Rui was summoned to the palace by the emperor. He stayed in the palace compound for a whole afternoon before returning to the palace. His father was interviewed by the emperor. Naturally, there was something going on. That's why the eldest son, Li Mu, was so concerned and knew that his father was.
After my father came home, he immediately came over to greet me.
Prince Jin raised his head and glanced at his son. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "Let's talk in the study."
The prince bowed his head respectfully: "Yes."
As a result, the father and son stepped forward and came to the study room of Prince Jin's Mansion. At this time, the stove was already lit in the study room. After entering the study room, Prince Jin took off his robe, threw it aside, and sat down on his own
on the chair.
After sitting down, Prince Jin closed his eyes and took several deep breaths before slowly calming down.
Li Mu lowered his head, poured a cup of tea for his father, and then asked: "Father, why did your Majesty come to you?"
"For the sake of his pro-government affairs."
Prince Jin lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "The little guy has reached the age of sixteen, and it's time to take over Chaogang Sheji. Last year, he secretly and overtly told Yang Jingzong to get out. This year, he is also old.
, naturally we must prepare to completely take over the government."
Li Mu also sat down. He looked at his father and asked, "But what does this have to do with you?"
After Prince Jin "lost the election" six years ago, he fell into silence. He spent most of the past six years in the palace and no longer held any official positions.
If the land of the Three Jin Dynasties had not already fallen into the hands of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the imperial court would probably have asked him, the King of Jin, to go to the Jin Dynasty and go to Tibet.
Therefore, logically speaking, the affairs in the court have nothing to do with His Highness the King of Jin. However, today the emperor invited him to the palace again.
long time.
"Originally, it has nothing to do with being a father."
Prince Jin sat on the chair, glanced at his son, and said slowly: "But today, the emperor invited my father to come over and said that as my father is a member of the clan, he should take on some responsibilities for the court..."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understood. He looked at his father and said slowly: "Your Majesty... wants you to serve as an official. I wonder what kind of job it is?"
Prince Jin lowered his eyebrows slightly and uttered three words.
"Jiankang Yin."
Although Jiankang Yin still has Jiankang in his name, Jiankang is now the actual capital of Dachen. This so-called Jiankang Yin is actually Jingzhao Yin.
The actual position of this errand is a third-grade official, but the real power is not small. Not only can he take charge of all matters in the capital, but he can also control the various prefectures in the capital. In other words, several prefectures, including Jiangdu Prefecture, are under the jurisdiction of Jian Kangyin.
.
This is a very important position. uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com Generally, someone who sits in this position must be a confidant of the emperor or a confidant of the person in power.
For example, the current Jiankang Yin is a student of Yang Jingzong and Yang Xiangguo.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince frowned, looked at his father, and whispered: "Father, why is he so generous all of a sudden?"
Prince Jin narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "What else could it be? After the emperor's brother left, Old Man Yang has controlled the government for too long. Now that he wants to eliminate Old Man Yang's power, it will not happen overnight, especially
For the position of Jian Kangyin, he needs someone who can sit in the position and no one will gossip about him."
"It was obvious that being a father was the right choice."
His Royal Highness sat opposite his father. After being silent for a while, he whispered: "Father, six years ago, the child was thirteen years old and he was ten years old. He will not forget the things that the child remembers. Logically speaking, he should not tell his father
That’s why the king is so relieved.”
Prince Jin frowned at first, then sighed slightly.
"Such a long time has passed, and my father has already given up on that thought. No matter whether he is really generous this time, or he is testing my father, anyway, my father has already accepted it. When the new year starts, my father will do this.
Jiankang Yin."
Having said this, Prince Jin raised his head, looked at his son, and said in a low voice: "After all, our surname, Chen, still needs to be Li, not Yang."
"The only thing I worry about as a father is..."
Prince Jin sighed again: "He is still too young. After Old Man Yang retreats, I don't know if he can control himself and not use force with Beiqi."
"If he can't help it."
Prince Jin lowered his eyebrows slightly: "Not to mention the loss of life, I'm just afraid that the country will be unstable."
