In the next few days, Jiankang City was very quiet, and there were no changes that Shen Yi expected.
According to Shen Yi's estimation, he had insulted the Princess of Northern Qi in the face. Even if Northern Qi's hidden personnel in Jiankang did not come to trouble him, the Rites Yamen might come to him.
It is even possible that the imperial court's internal guards will send people to look for him.
But in the next few days, not only did no one from the inner guard come to see him, but there was no movement from the Ministry of Etiquette. Even after Princess Izumo suffered a loss, there was no reaction at all, as if what happened that day had not happened at all. Live the same.
Of course, this incident still had a small-scale impact.
For example, the story that Shen Yi spilled Princess Izumo's tea that day was spread by the waiters at the teahouse. For a while, the words "Jiangdu Shen Yi" became popular on the streets of Dongshi.
small book booth
Other than that, there are no more disturbances.
While Shen Yi was recuperating at home, the candidates for the Hongde Sixth Jiankang Rural Examination were finally decided.
The doctor from the Ministry of Rites failed to be selected, but Cao Qian, the former number one scholar, successfully became the examiner of this year's Jiankang Township Examination.
For a time, the price of Cao Zhuangyuan's collected works soared in Jiankang City, and there were even queues to buy in front of many bookstores.
Because of Zhang Jian, Shen Yi learned about the two candidates for the provincial examination early. Therefore, whether it was the collected works of the doctor in the Ministry of Rites or the first scholar in the past, he had a lot of them at home, and he did not have to compete with those candidates for books.
However, after learning the news, Shen Yi also dug out Cao Zhuangyuan's collected works among a pile of books at home and began to read them carefully.
There is no way. The exams in this era are all "liberal arts" exams. It can even be said that they are all Chinese exams. Chinese exams mean that there are no standard answers, which means that the subjective consciousness of the examiner can determine too many things.
Even Shen Yi, if he wanted to take the imperial examination, had to study hard to understand Cao Zhuangyuan's profound knowledge.
It is worth mentioning that this former top pick seems to be very young. He is only 26 or 27 years old this year. Many scholars at this age are still struggling in the examination stage, but Cao Qian has already won the top pick, using the words "Full of Future" To describe it, it seems a bit bleak.
Just when Shen Yi was studying the collected works of Cao Zhuangyuan at home, an inconspicuous sedan stopped at the door of his small courtyard. After the sedan stopped, a small attendant next to the sedan came to the door of the courtyard and knocked on Shen Yi's door. 's courtyard gate.
At this moment, Shen Yi still had the gauze bandaged on his head. After hearing the knock on the door, he came to the door of the courtyard with the gauze on his head. After taking a look through the crack in the door, he found two people standing outside the door. A young man with a fair face and no beard.
Although the two young men were wearing plain clothes, it could be seen that their bodies were slightly bent subconsciously. It was obvious that they were used to bending over.
Adding the two characteristics together, it is not difficult to guess the identity of these two people.
Shen Yi hesitated for a while, then stretched out his hand to open the courtyard door. He first looked at the two young men, then looked at the sedan behind them, and said, "Who are you two?"
"Is this Mr. Shen?"
A young man looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "My godfather has something to do with Mr. Shen."
After saying that, the two young men made way out of the way, and the sedan curtain behind them slowly opened, and out came a white-faced middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.
There is no need for middle-aged people either. If you consider the names these people call each other, their identities will be easy to guess.
More importantly, Shen Yi recognized this fair-faced middle-aged man.
He had met in the Jin Palace before.
Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, then immediately stepped forward, raised his hands to the middle-aged man and said, "Eunuch Gao."
Gao Ming, who had just stepped off the sedan, shook his head slightly and said, "I came here in plainclothes so as not to attract attention. Mr. Shen, there is no need to be polite. Let's go in and talk."
Shen Yi nodded quickly and introduced Gao Ming sideways into his small yard.
It was getting hot now. Shen Yi took Gao Ming into the house.
A bowl of herbal tea was prepared for him. After pouring the herbal tea, Shen Yi looked at Gao Ming and smiled cautiously: "I don't know what you are doing when Eunuch Gao comes here."
The people around the big boss are the most untouchable.
Just like the chairman's secretary is not easy to mess with, it's the same truth.
After all, people follow the big boss every day, and sometimes an inconspicuous word can determine your fate.
The influence of this inconspicuous eunuch in front of him in the court may be as great as any of the ministers in the council hall except Yang Jingzong!
Gao Ming lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then looked up at the gauze wrapped on Shen Yi's head, and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Shen's home, why is Mr. Shen so polite? Sit down and talk."
Only then did Shen Yi sit down.
After Shen Yi sat down, Gao Ming asked: "Is Mr. Shen's injury okay?"
"It's much better already."
Shen Yi lowered his head slightly: "Thank you for your concern, father-in-law."
Gao Ming nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It's much better. Mr. Shen is the best talent in Chen Shicai in the past twenty years. If he hurts his head, it will be a huge sin."
Hearing him rambling, Shen Yi felt a little curious.
This Eunuch Gao cannot be said to be the internal minister of Da Chen, but he can at least be said to be half the internal minister. He must have a lot of things to deal with on weekdays. Why are you so free today? Not only did he come to express his condolences in person, but he also Are you talking about these gossips in front of yourself?
However, there was a huge disparity in status between the two parties. Gao Ming could only say something, and Shen Yi would listen and respond. After finishing the routine, Gao Ming waved his hand and signaled the two young eunuchs to leave.
The two young eunuchs quickly lowered their heads and exited the main hall of Shen Yi's house.
After the two young eunuchs left, Gao Ming looked at Shen Yi and said calmly: "Young Master Shen is so talented, uukanshu www.uukanshu.com Do you dabble in Buddhism on a daily basis?"
Shen Yi shook his head slightly: "Father, I am a Confucian scholar. I read the books of sages and Buddhist scriptures. I don't have the energy to get involved at the moment."
Most of the famous Confucian scholars in the past dynasties were people who were proficient in the three religions and had profound knowledge. However, these great Confucian scholars who were "proficient in the three religions" either retired and returned home to enjoy the blessings, or they simply did not serve as officials, so they had a lot of time and energy to devote. On the path to Buddhism, for young people like Shen Yi, only the books of sages are the only way to reach the heavens.
"Scholars should read books by sages, but they should not be stupid in reading. When appropriate, they should also go out for a walk and read some miscellaneous books, so that they can integrate knowledge."
Gao Ming looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "Master Shen is not a healthy person. He may not know that there is a Jiming Temple in Jiankang. The incense is very strong. If you have nothing to do, you can go to Jiming Temple. It has a unique flavor." "
Shen Yi was not able to immediately understand the meaning of Gao Ming's words, but when Gao Ming mentioned Jiming Temple and explicitly asked Shen Yi to go there, Shen Yi suddenly felt blessed and thoughtful.
He looked up at Eunuch Gao and asked softly: "May I ask my father-in-law, when is the best time to go to Jiming Temple?"
"In three days."
Eunuch Gao said calmly: "Forget it, people from the Qintian Prison, three days from now will be an auspicious day, and it is appropriate to offer sacrifices to the gods."
Eunuch Gao looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "At that time, if Mr. Shen has time, we can also go to Jiming Temple to worship the Bodhisattva."
Shen Yi looked at Gao Ming and nodded slightly.
"Thank you for the tip, father-in-law. I will definitely have time in three days..."
