Shen Yi originally wanted to live in the wounded barracks for a period of time.
The first is to take good care of these wounded soldiers, and the second is to always remind yourself of the lessons learned this time.
However, Zhang Jian couldn't stay in the wounded barracks outside the city forever. His government office also had many things to deal with.
Moreover, Shen Yi also has many things to deal with.
For example, the people sent by the palace are about to arrive in Huai'an.
Although Shen Yi met with the "angels" in the palace at the wounded barracks, it didn't matter. In addition to meeting the angels, Shen Yi also had to deal with warships, recruiting troops, logistics and other messy tasks.
It's really not that convenient to be in the wounded barracks all the time.
Therefore, that morning, he followed Zhang Jian back to Huai'an City and returned to his imperial mission.
Compared with the environment in the wounded barracks, the conditions in the imperial envoy's camp are naturally much better, and are also conducive to his recovery.
The wounded soldiers camp outside the city is not very far from Huai'an City. The two of them set off in the morning and returned to Huai'an City at noon.
The two senior brothers had lunch together. After Zhang Jian told Shen Yi to pay attention to his injury, he returned to the magistrate's office, while Shen Yi returned to his imperial envoy's cabin to rest.
As a result, Shen Yi just woke up from a nap, and before he could get up, Jiang Sheng knocked gently on the door and said, "Master, someone is coming from the palace."
He has followed Shen Yi for several years and is already very familiar with Shen Yi's schedule. He knows that Shen Yi should wake up from his nap at this moment.
After Master Shen yawned with his left hand, he slowly sat up from the bed and said, "I know."
After sitting on the edge of the bed for a while, Shen Yi put on a coat and opened the door to his room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw not only Jiang Sheng standing outside, but also Sun Jin, the purple eunuch of the inner court. Waiting at the door of his bedroom.
After seeing Shen Yi come out, before Jiang Sheng could say anything, Sun Jin came closer and bowed to Shen Yi respectfully: "I have met Mr. Shen."
Shen Yi shook his head quickly, stretched out his left hand to support him, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Eunuch Sun, how can this happen? I have nothing to do with my husband, and Eunuch Sun is an angel. How can I let an angel wait in front of my door?"
After saying that, he glared at Jiang Sheng and said angrily: "Why are you so ignorant of the rules? Don't you know how to welcome the angel to the main hall for tea?"
Sun Jin quickly shook his head, then bowed his head to Shen Yi and said: "Mr. Shen, our family does not have an imperial edict, so we are not angels. Besides, Mr. Shen himself is an imperial envoy, just like His Majesty is walking outside..."
"Mr. Shen came to the battle in person and has made outstanding achievements. It is natural for our family to wait for Mr. Shen at the door."
Shen Yi shook his head, glanced at Jiang Sheng, and said helplessly: "Why don't you invite some of your father-in-laws to serve tea in the main hall?"
Jiang Sheng nodded quickly and soon led a group of people to the main hall to sit down. Shen Yi, because his right arm was inconvenient, hung it on his chest, used his left hand to drink tea instead of wine, toasted several father-in-laws, and said with a smile: "Eunuch Sun, Long time no see, how are you doing in the inner court recently?"
Sun Jin had made contributions to the affairs of the Shibo Division. After returning to the palace, he immediately became the second-ranking figure in the inner court. Moreover, due to His Majesty's intention, his status was already approaching Gao Ming's.
The day the high eunuch loses power, this Eunuch Sun will immediately become the high eunuch of the inner court.
However, Sun Jin is a cautious person. When he heard this, he just lowered his head slightly and said: "With His Majesty's grace and Eunuch Gao's care, our family and others can have no worries about food and clothing in the palace. It is naturally very good, but..."
He glanced at Shen Yi's right arm and sighed: "A handsome young man like Mr. Shen really suffered a lot on the battlefield."
Shen Yi smiled calmly: "It's nothing serious. I'll be fully recovered in five or six days."
He looked at Sun Jin and asked, "Eunuch Sun didn't have an imperial edict, so why did he come to Huai'an?"
"Your Majesty urgently ordered our family to come over."
Eunuch Sun looked at Shen Yi, then lowered his head slightly and said: "His Majesty knows that Mr. Shen is working hard on the front line, so he specially asked our family to come over and ask if there is anything lacking in Mr. Shen's place. The court will prepare it for Mr. Shen immediately."
Having said this, he stood up, took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Shen Yi with both hands, lowered his head and said: "Ms. Shen, this is a secret letter written by His Majesty, please give it to us personally. Mr. Shen."
After hearing the four words written in his own hand, Shen Yi immediately stood up.
The emperor's pen and ink were precious. In normal days, when reviewing memorials, a memorial might contain only two or three words. Even when Gou Zhu killed someone in the Autumn Jue, it was just a check mark.
Emperors generally do not write long stories themselves.
Even the edicts were drafted by ministers.
Even if a letter needs to be written, it is usually ghostwritten by the inner court.
As for the autograph letter written by the emperor to Shen Yi, Mr. Shen kept it afterwards so that it can be used as a treasure for future generations.
After receiving the letter, Shen Yi did not open it immediately, but asked: "Eunuch Sun, does your Majesty have anything else to do?"
"Furthermore, the Ministry of War has already tried its best to allocate the warships that Mr. Shen needs from other places. In addition, Your Majesty is afraid that the warships of the Ministry of War are not enough, so he has ordered the Ministry of War to rush out a batch of warships before the first half of next year. "
"When the time comes, Huai'an will also be given priority."
Mr. Shen nodded silently.
In Huai'an, he is mainly responsible for strategic decision-making, as well as logistics, supplies and other various issues for the front line.
Speaking of which, the emperor and his job are not much different.
His Majesty the Emperor was also behind Jiankang, providing logistics for Shen Yi.
Hearing this, Mr. Shen nodded silently. He stood up and said, "After Eunuch Sun returns to Beijing, please thank Your Majesty for me."
Sun Jin quickly helped Shen Yi sit down and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, don't worry, our family may have to live in Huai'an for a while. During this period, if Mr. Shen needs anything, you can tell our family."
"Your Majesty has explained that if anything can be handled by Prime Minister Shen, he will handle it immediately. If it cannot be handled, he will report it to the palace and let the palace handle it."
Hearing Sun Jin's words, Mr. Shen lowered his head and took a sip of tea. Then he looked at Sun Jin thoughtfully and asked with a smile: "So, Eunuch Sun has taken over the internal defense?"
Sun Jin looked serious, shook his head and said: "Mr. Shen, the inner guard has always been the inner guard. It is directly under your majesty and under the command of Commander Lu Wei."
"Whether it's Eunuch Gao or our family."
"It's impossible to take over the inside defense."
When Shen Yi heard this, he smiled slightly.
"Then to put it another way, on the inner guard side, Eunuch Sun is communicating now?"
Sun Jin couldn't help but smile on his face, but he quickly restrained himself, lowered his head slightly and said, "Not everything, just a small part of it. Our family is communicating with the internal guards."
He coughed and said with a smile: "Eunuch Gao and the others should communicate with each other about big things."
Master Shen said with emotion.
"Grandpa Sun has made great achievements. I am here to congratulate you."
Sun Jin quickly shook his head and said seriously.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Shen, you are a great nobleman of our family. If it weren't for you, Mr. Shen, our family might not even be able to wear this purple dress now."
This is the truth.
Whether it was the Diji Newspaper Division or the Shipping Division, Shen Yi took the lead, and Sun Jin followed behind. In the end, Sun Jin was able to take credit for the inner court, which was inseparable from Shen Yi.
Therefore, the relationship between the two people is really "good".
In this way, the two people talked for a long time in the main hall. It was not until evening that Sun Jin got up and left.
Shen Yi wanted to keep him for dinner, but the naturally cautious eunuch in purple refused and left the imperial envoy's residence.
Mr. Shen and Jiang Sheng had dinner together, then opened the door of the study and sat in his seat.
He hasn't sat here for a long time, and now there are four or five documents stacked on the table that he didn't have time to read.
Shen Yi opened the books one by one and read them one by one.
When it was late at night, there was a knock on the door. Shen Yi put down his brush with his left hand and yawned: "Come in."
Someone pushed the door open and came in, bringing a bowl of hot porridge and placing it next to Shen Yi's hand. His voice was gentle and delicate.
"Sir, have some porridge."
It's a woman's voice.
Shen Yi originally thought it was Jiang Sheng, but when he heard the voice, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the figure.
Under the candlelight, a tall woman with a good figure, wearing a moon-white coat, stood quietly in front of Shen Yi and looked at Shen Yi.
There was a smile on her face, but there were tears in the corners of her eyes.
Mr. Shen was stunned for a moment, a little stunned.
