Chapter 312: Afraid of misunderstanding from above!
At this time, Shen Yi was also near Master Lu. After seeing his teacher receiving the imperial edict, he silently stepped forward and said, "Teacher, you..."
Master Lu looked at Shen Yi and smiled dumbly.
"When I entered the palace to meet the saint, I'm afraid you, Ziheng, hadn't come to this world yet, so there's no need to worry about me."
He patted Shen Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, it's getting late today. You've been struggling for several days. Go back and rest early. Maybe the official department will make arrangements for you sometime.
Already."
Shen Yi nodded silently and said in a low voice: "Of course I won't worry about your safety, but the student has written a lot to the palace this year. It is estimated that His Majesty will ask the teacher about the palace newspaper. The teacher will then say,
The Di newspaper was created by the students themselves..."
Shen Yi lowered his eyebrows and said, "Because of the Di newspaper, the student has already offended many people. The student does not want his teacher to cause trouble for this."
When Shen Yi said this, he was indeed not worried that Master Lu would gain credit in front of the emperor, but that Master Lu would be detained in Jiankang because of this incident. Shen Yi knew his teacher very well, and for Master Lu, in his heart
The ideal place for me is Ganquan Academy, not the cunning officialdom.
Master Lu patted Shen Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Zi Heng. As long as His Majesty asks, I will tell you what I want as a teacher."
After saying this, Lu Anshi looked back at Zhao Changping and said with a smile: "Brother Changping, let's go to your study and I'll talk to you about this child."
He pointed at Shen Yi.
Zhao Changping was startled for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, I was about to talk to Jizhong about Zi Heng."
After that, the two little old men walked hand in hand to Zhao Shilang's study.
Seeing the two elders leaving, Shen Yi also said goodbye to the two brothers Zhao Da and Zhao. Unfortunately, Junior Sister Lu had already gone to the back house of the Zhao family, and Shen Yi didn't see her when she said goodbye.
Zhao Shilang's home is not too far away from Shen Yi's home. They are both in Jiankang Beicheng. After leaving Zhao Shilang's house, Shen Yi returned home not long after. At this time, the two little maids had been home for a long time. After seeing Shen Yi come back,
Very happy, he quickly made arrangements to boil water for Shen Yi to take a bath.
Before Shen Yi took a bath, he went to Shen Ling's room to take a look. Shen Ling was still not at home.
Shen Ling seems to have been freed from his shackles since arriving in Jiankang. He often goes out to do mischief, but he doesn't always do mischief in the Qinhuai River. Sometimes he helps Xu Fu and others in their shop, and at night he simply goes out to do mischief.
If I sleep there, I won't come back to live there again.
In addition, Shen Yi did not say hello to Shen Ling before returning, so it was not surprising that Shen San was not at home.
After Shen Yi washed up, he quickly lay down on the bed and fell asleep due to the fatigue of traveling.
However, Shen Yi's sweet dream did not last long. Less than an hour after he fell asleep, the door of his room was knocked by a young man. The young man lowered his head and said, "Master."
Shen Yi was awakened by Xu Fu's voice. After rubbing his eyes, he stood up, put on his clothes and climbed out of bed.
After opening the door, Shen Yi saw Xu Fu at the door, looking a little haggard.
After seeing Shen Yi, he looked more cheerful, lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "Sir, you are finally back."
Shen Yi introduced him into the room and said with a smile: "What happened to make Mr. Xu so panicked in the middle of the night?"
Xu Fu sat in Shen Yi's room, stretched out his hand to pour himself a glass of water, and then said with a bitter smile: "Sir, after you left last time, I followed your instructions and took the two redemption tickets to Chunyi Tower.
Not long after arriving at Chunyi Building, the shopkeeper of Chunyi Building accepted one of the redemption tickets, and then..."
He whispered: "Then, give that girl Gu to me."
Mentioning Gu Hengbo, Xu Fu couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said: "Later, according to the young master's instructions, I found a small courtyard for Miss Gu in Jiankang. I was just waiting for the young master to come back. There was nothing major.
But recently, when I was doing business near the Qinhuai River, people often came to my shop to look for me, saying they wanted to do business with me..."
He glanced at Shen Yi thoughtfully and continued: "There are many people with extremely good conditions. Not to mention the young master, even when I saw it, I thought it was a business to make money for nothing..."
Shen Yi glanced at Xu Fu quietly: "Are you ready to come down?"
"No."
Xu Fu shook his head quickly: "Young Master has told me to do my own thing in a down-to-earth manner. Before Young Master comes back, I have never promised anyone to do business with them."
"but…"
Xu Fu swallowed again and said: "But Master, that Miss Gu lives in the house I rented for her. She was quite honest at first, but in recent days she has been clamoring to see me. Master also knows
, a few of us were young and were afraid of being deceived by this woman, so we didn’t talk to her much."
Saying that, Xu Fu took out another thin redemption note from his sleeve, lowered his head and said: "Sir, I only spent one of the two redemption notes you gave me that day, and the remaining one...
"
Looking at this redemption ticket, Shen Yi's eyelids twitched!
You know, this is ten thousand taels of cash!
Shen Yi worked his way from Jiangdu to Jiankang and never stopped doing business, but now his entire net worth combined is not half as much as this piece of paper!
But unfortunately, this money is not easy to be greedy, and it is not even easy to get rebates.
This is the "resettlement fee" given to Gu Hengbo by the palace. Shen Yi was asked to give Gu Hengbo the settlement money after she escaped.
This kind of money is not easy to get. If you take even a little bit of it, the palace might know about it, and the guards might write it down in a notebook.
"You keep this money and spend it all on Miss Gu."
Shen Yi patted Xu Fu on the shoulder and said softly: "Just now you said that everyone Gu wanted to see you at your residence?"
Xu Fu shook his head and said: "To be precise, she probably wanted to see the young master and the big shot who "purchased" her from Chunyi Tower.
Shen Yi raised his head and looked at the sky.
The sky outside was already dark. After hesitating for a moment, Mr. Shen said, "That's it. I'll go with you now to meet Mr. Gu."
After saying this, Shen Yi turned around, put on his clothes, and went out with Xu Fu.
It was still early summer, and the temperature difference between day and night was huge. Shen Yi and Xu Fu felt a little cold after walking out of the mansion.
After Shen Yi left home for more than ten steps, he suddenly remembered something.
That is to avoid taboos.
At this moment, Gu Hengbo is very likely to become the emperor's favorite, and the two of them may have already been together. Faced with such a big boss woman, it is indeed inappropriate for Shen Yi to go to her in the middle of the night.
But if you go during the day, it is even more inappropriate.
Shen Yi asked Xu Fu to handle this matter just to get himself out of this matter, instead of getting himself involved with everyone Gu.
Mr. Shen stood there, thinking for a while, then coughed and said, "Xiao Xu, it's getting late today. I think we should go home and sleep first."
"Wait until tomorrow..."
Shen Yi chuckled and said: "Tomorrow, let me take a breather and say hello to the boss to avoid any misunderstandings. If nothing else happens, I can go with you to meet Mr. Gu tomorrow night."
Xu Fu didn't think much, he just lowered his head and said: "Yes, Master, I will come to see you tomorrow night..."
