Following a wordless poem that didn't even have a title, Shen Yi became famous in Jiangdu. This reputation spread almost throughout the capital, and even reached the ears of some high-ranking officials. For example, Zhao Changping, the minister of household affairs, Zhao Changping, as the minister of household affairs, He was busy with work on weekdays. Although he was born in the second place, at this time, Zhao Bangyan had no intention of writing, let alone paying attention to the Shangyuan Poetry Society. Therefore, Shen Yi's poem never reached his ears until Jiang Du knew about it. Zhang Jian visited the Ministry of Household Affairs. He was originally a county magistrate. Without an appointment with an official from the Ministry of Household Affairs, it was unlikely that he could enter the household department. Mr. He Zhang's background was too strong. There was an old man who was the prime minister in the family, and there was also a teacher who was the minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. , so he entered the Ministry of Household Affairs openly and came to the public room of Minister Zhao of the Ministry of Household Affairs. At this time, County Magistrate Zhang entered Zhao Changping's room with a smile on his face, carrying two paper bags. He first put down the paper bags, and then He bowed to Zhao Changping respectfully and said, "Meet the teacher."
Zhao Changping was dealing with official business at the moment. After hearing Zhang Jian's voice, he raised his head and glanced at his student, then at the paper package on his desk, with a faint smile on his face: "Yi An Didn't he go back to Jiangdu to take up a post on January 6? It's only been a few days, why did he come back to the capital again?
"Grandma is not in good health. The disciple has just returned to Jiangxi for a few days. The female guide saw that the student has already asked Chen Fuzun and his subordinates for half a year's leave. Zhang Jian's grandfather is one of the prime ministers of the Zhongshu Provincial Council. After Zhao Shilang heard these words, he frowned slightly: "I," the student rushed back early in the morning. After meeting his grandmother, she always said this, and County Magistrate Zhang sighed slightly: "Ever since we were young,... The old lady can’t bear it.”
Hearing that the old lady was okay, Zhao Shilang had a soothing smile on his face and said, "You are a seventh-grade county magistrate, and you bring things upright." This is Fang Zhang from Jiangdu. Zhang Jian smiled brightly and said, "I heard from Master Lu that the teacher likes to eat." This disciple brought some here."
Zhao Shilang nodded slightly, pointed to the chair opposite him, and said: "Pour yourself some tea, then sit down and say something." Zhang Jian nodded quickly, got up, poured tea for Zhao Shilang and himself, and sat down opposite Zhao Changping, smiling. He said, "I just returned to the capital when I heard that our Ganquan Academy has another celebrity in the capital. Zhao Shilang just picked up the tea cup. He stopped when he heard the words, looked at Zhang Jian and asked: "What celebrity?"
Zhang Jian was very surprised: "Teacher, don't you know?
Zhao Shilang shook his head slightly and said in a somewhat pessimistic tone: "At the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Revenue was extremely busy. You also know that Liu Shangshu is old, and many things are weighing on me. During this time, I almost lived in the Ministry of Households. Hearing the teacher say this, Zhang Jian smiled: "Old Liu is so old, and he still occupies the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. I want my disciples to tell me that one day I will find someone to take care of him." Give this old man a good beating, tell him to resign and return to his hometown, and hand over the position of Minister to the teacher. Then the errands of the Ministry of Revenue will be relieved."
"Stop talking nonsense." Zhao Shilang glanced at his disciple who liked to joke, and then slowly said: "You just said that there is another celebrity in our Ganquan Academy. What's going on?" "
Zhang Jian then told Zhao Changping the whole story he had heard, and then read the poem again and said softly: "Teacher, when I was at home just now, my brother said that this poem has two endings. , one ending is what the disciple just read, and the other ending is..."
"Who will lament the rise and fall?" Zhang Jian said slowly: "But this second ending can only be heard among the officials' disciples in Jiankang City. It is hard to tell whether it is true or false, but the Jiangdu County Magistrate laughed. He smiled and said: "But this disciple Shen Yi and Shen Qilang have met him when he was in Jiangdu. He was still a student of Uncle Lu. At that time, the disciple saw that this man was honest and honest. He didn't expect that the poet was so good. When he first arrived in the capital, he A poem caused a sensation in Jiankang, and even shocked..."
"Alarmed"
"Students from Jizhong..."
Zhao Shilang narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking thoughtfully. Lu Anshi's cousin Zhang Jian also smiled and said, "When the teacher is free, would you like to meet this Shen Qilang?"
Zhao Shilang was silent for a while and shook his head slightly: "The household department will be busy for at least another month. During this time, there is really no free time for the teacher. Besides, since he came to Jiankang to take the exam, he has to prepare for the exam. See you later. He's just a distraction."
"Let's wait until the hospital has tried it before we talk."
Zhao Shilang seemed to be thinking about Shen Yi when he said this, but as a disciple, Zhang Jian knew very well that if Shen Yi couldn't even pass the college examination, it would be impossible for him to meet Zhao Changping, his "fellow disciple". , Zhao Changping looked at Zhang Jian sitting opposite him, and said calmly: "But Yi An, you have some free time. If you have nothing to do, you can go and meet this Shen Yi." Zhang Jian smiled and said: "The teacher thinks highly of me, Shen Yi Living in Prince Jin's Mansion now is not something that a disciple can see if he wants to."
Zhao Shilang frowned again. He lowered his head and looked at the mountains of documents on his desk, and took a long breath: "I am tired of the case. I don't know many things in the capital. It seems that I can't." If you sit at this desk every day, your eyes will be darkened and you won't be able to see anything."
“Teacher is busy with work”
Zhang Jian said with a smile on his face, "But I have a lot of free time. I know a lot of people in Jiankang. If the teacher wants to know anything, I can ask you."
Zhao Shilang stood up from the chair and stretched slightly. "Since Yi An has nothing to do, let's try to grind. What do you mean?"
At this time, Shen Yi was still crowded with people at the door of the Academic Affairs Gate. Fortunately, after all, the results were not released, but only the exam time was announced. After Shen Yi spent some time, he still squeezed to the front and saw the announcement of the Academic Affairs Gate this year. The college examination is scheduled for the fourth day of March, which means there is still one month and a few days left. The general college examination time is in March or April in the spring. This time is still a regular time. This exam is very contracted. For current students It is also very important for Shen Yi that he has passed this exam. He is a scholar of this era. With some basic social status and life skills, he will be able to easily squeeze out of the crowd in the future. After that, Shen Yi glanced at In the crowded crowd at the door of the Xuezheng Gate, I actually saw a few acquaintances or classmates. The most conspicuous one was Chen Changming, the head of this year's Jiangdu Prefectural Examination. However, Shen Yi saw him, but he did not see Shen Yi. He was still in the crowd. After being squeezed here and there and seeing a few classmates, Shen Yi turned around and left without saying a word. Now he is considered a celebrity in the capital. He needs to "travel low-key", but he can't be called out by these classmates. , otherwise there will definitely be some trouble. After finally squeezing out of the crowd, Shen Yi patted the shoulder of Xu Fu who was following him, "Let's go, Xiao Xu, let's go to Dongshi."
Xu Fuben was following Shen Yi. Hearing this, he quickly followed him, lowered his head and asked, "Master, are you going to Dongshi to buy something?"
Shen Yi looked back at Xu Fu and rolled his eyes at the latter, "I'm not going to buy anything, but I'm going to see what we can sell in the East Market."
Xu Fu nodded. He understood that according to his young master, this seemed to be called...
Market research?
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
