Bronze Sparrow Spring Deep

In the blink of an eye, Shen Yanzhi moved out of the palace for only a month, and during this month, he only spent about ten days in the house, and the rest of the time he was called into the palace for various strange reasons, and he stayed for several days.

Zijin was hidden in a very remote room in the backyard. Shen Yanzhi knew that the greatest protection for her was indifference, so he handed over all matters to Chun'er. Chun'er had no kindness towards her, so he was nothing but a pot of warmth in winter. Charcoal, three meals a meal food and clothing.Zijin didn't dare to complain, at most, he went around the yard twice, and spent the rest of the time in the house to raise his baby.

The three exams in Chunwei were completed in three days. The four books and five classics on history, politics and science were filled with a few sheets of paper filled with exquisite hairpin flowers. The gate guards did not dare to block the sign entering the palace, so they had to pull the sleeping Shu Yi up and rubbed his hands and head.

Shu Yi leaned on the couch, yawning continuously, the strength in his hand was getting weaker and weaker, and finally he even wanted to rub Shen Yanzhi's eyes, and he kept muttering, "You know what your name is... ...be proud of being favored..."

Hearing this, Shen Yanzhi suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, "I don't dare to..." He glanced sideways at Shuyi and snorted coldly, "If the emperor is tired, take a rest, I won't bother you "

He stood up very slowly, but didn't wait for the person behind him to move. He glanced back and saw that Shu Yi was leaning his head on the bed rail, frowning slightly, and had already fallen asleep.With a soft sigh, he helped him to lie down, and then he took off his coat and got into the quilt, and while Shu Yi was fast asleep, he put his wrist around his waist without hesitation.

"In more than ten days, when the examination results come down and the palace test is done, it will be difficult for me to enter the palace like this again..." Shen Yan buried his head on Shuyi's shoulder, muttering to himself, his voice low.

"Although I have read a lot of idle books in the past few years, I haven't missed the serious ones. I have already memorized them by heart, but Chun Wei can still handle them. The real kung fu is tested in the imperial examination—" Shen Yanzhi was moved, "I think I I can pass the exam...but if the question is not well written, don't laugh at me."

Speaking of this, Shen Yanzhi sighed deeply again, "Kao Chunwei didn't do anything else, he just wanted to glorify the lintel of my Shen family. Do you know who my Shen family ancestors are... I hope that after decades of death, I can speak uprightly." A sentence of 'worthy of the ancestors of the Shen family' will not be in vain in the afterlife."

After the words were finished, Shuyi laughed lightly, grabbed Shen Yanzhi's hand covering his waist, clasped it behind Shen Yan's waist, pulled him into his arms, and placed a light kiss on his forehead, "Are you still afraid?" where?"

"Are you awake? Or pretend to be asleep!"

Shuyi snorted, and changed into a comfortable position, "I fell asleep, and I was woken up by you again", feeling the person in his arms struggling, and quickly pulled him back, "What time is it, maybe it should be woke up"

"Now it's time to be ugly, let's sleep a little longer"

"Forget it", Shuyi's voice was full of fatigue, Shen Yanzhi immediately stood up and prepared to call someone to prepare tea, but was stopped by Shuyi, and he was dragged back into the quilt, shoulder to shoulder, looking at each other, "you go into the palace , you miss me, don’t you?”

Shen Yanzhi blushed, and hurriedly pushed Shuyi to get up. Seeing the situation, Shuyi understood, and quickly hugged him tightly in his arms, not letting go, "Qi'er is getting older, but I'm worried about him. Without statecraft—”

I don't know why Shu Yi suddenly mentioned this, Shen Yanzhi said, "The little prince is very much like you, are you still worried that he won't be able to take over the important task of governing the country?"

Shu Yi shook his head, "It does look like me, but..." and sighed, "I don't want to be ashamed of the ancestors of Daliang. It would be great if Qi'er really has the talent for governing the country, but if not, I can only hope For the eldest grandson of the emperor, if he is no longer suitable to take over my position... I will become a sinner of Liang, and I will die with regret and my soul will never return to the ground."

Shen Yan trembled, Wen Zhaoyi's child flashed in his mind, and a sadness flashed in his eyes, and he could easily see his little thoughts, and said softly, "I'm not blaming you, but I want to ask you, if there is such a day, would you like Follow me, guard the great Liang Jiangshan, live in shame, die in shame"

Shen Yanzhi blinked slowly, and felt a pain in his heart, he couldn't help it, "There won't be such a day... The little prince is very smart, there won't be such a day... Even if there is—"

"Then let's take a gamble"

Shu Yi interrupted Shen Yanzhi, as if he didn't want him to make any promises, the promises were too heavy to bear, and even if Shen Yanzhi was willing, he didn't know whether he would let the person in front of him stay with him in this cage For a lifetime, here, the magnificent Liang Palace, is it not a cage for anyone, including himself?

At the beginning of March, the examination list came out, and Shen Yanzhi was on the list. He followed a group of tribute students into the palace at dawn, and the emperor personally supervised a questioning session.The majestic palace, I still remember the last time he hid behind the stone pillars outside the palace and looked at the high-spirited Gongsheng students, who wanted to come back to their hometown with great enthusiasm, and now, he has become one of them.

I don't know what other people think of me.

Cotton clothes can't hide its brilliance, Shu Yi sits on the top of the hall, and sees him among the many tribute students at a glance, lowers his eyebrows, lowers his eyes, rubs ink and puts his pen, spreads paper and raises his head, and subconsciously looks towards the top of the hall. After one glance, he couldn't look away anymore.

The Emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, the aloof Emperor Daliang, the wise monarch in the eyes of the people, was sitting at the position where everyone looked up to him, looking down at him from a high position.From the sharp eyebrows to the broad chest to the warm palm, he is very familiar with it. Such a good person, such a noble person, belongs to him.

What is obsession, this is obsession.

The gong sounded, and the test questions were announced, which brought Shen Yanzhi back to his thoughts, and a smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, "The way of a monarch and his ministers..."

What is the way of the monarch and ministers?The emperor envoys his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers serve the emperor with loyalty.Loyalty is good for deeds, and good medicine is good for disease, but how to utter the truth and brew the bitter medicine is what the courtiers should consider.He couldn't do what Xu Huai did. He straightened his chest, spoke righteously and covered his head and face, and put the ancestor's precepts on the top of the emperor's head, persuading him. It's the emperor's own business whether to do it or not. , Fang is the real way to be a minister in his heart.

Maybe he is stick to the rules, maybe his thinking is pedantic, but his father's stubbornness has been deeply rooted in his bone marrow, which is indelible. , but he doesn't complain, but his father has been living in regret until his death.

Generations of military generals in the Shen family fought for the country, devoted themselves to the battlefield, and made countless contributions. In the grandfather's generation, they only gave birth to two sons, one from literature and the other from martial arts. Grandfather also died of illness in Beijing shortly thereafter.The father who only read sage books could not afford to be the leader of the Shen family, and his uncle did not have a son, and the Shen family had no one to inherit the foundation. She was politely rejected by her father, and even dropped that peerless jade fan during a quarrel with her mother...

He lived in seclusion in a distant county from Beijing, and until he died, he only sought the post of county magistrate.

His father kept telling him that the Shen family had shed blood and tears on the battlefield for generations, defending the country with their own body and life, and that he was ashamed of their ancestors to let the Shen family fall into such a state.But he didn't know how to gain a foothold in Beijing and how to protect the well-being of the descendants of Shen's family if his father accepted the money without any contribution to the country or any position in the dynasty.

He doesn't complain, really doesn't complain.

The setting sun was like blood, turning half of the sky red, the examiner collected the papers, and as soon as the students left in an orderly manner, Shen Yanzhi walked at the end of the line, and the moment he walked down the steps, he turned his head and glanced into the distance, not knowing whether he was getting closer or far away.

Seeing that the list of winners was about to be announced, but there was no news from the palace. At such a sensitive time, it was inconvenient for him to enter the palace, but it was inevitable that he should not be in a hurry.

If he can be among the top three and enter the Hanlin Academy, then this Shen residence should also be called Shen Mansion. Thinking of this, Shen Yanzhi suddenly became excited, and finally he was able to take down the two broken characters of Shuyi openly!He did what he said, and immediately ordered five or six young men to move the ladders to climb up and tie the plaques. Several people tremblingly shouted to be careful and were about to withdraw.

Shen Yanzhi watched it with high interest, but Chun'er was puzzled and asked, "Young master, this plaque is hung well, why did you have to take it down?"

Shen Yanzhi looked at the two large characters on the plaque with disgust, and said, "It's getting uglier and uglier. I've endured it for a long time. Quickly remove it!"

"What did you say is ugly?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind, like a sharp knife standing on the neck, full of threats.

Who knew how Shuyi would leave the palace suddenly, and who knew how he would suddenly stand behind him? !

Shen Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, then put on a smile, without even turning his head, and shouted to the boy above, "Take it down quickly, so you can wipe it clean before hanging it back up, there is so much dust on it What do you think, hurry up, don't dawdle!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Chun'er as if nothing had happened, "What shall we have for dinner tonight? I'm a little hungry."

As he was speaking, he was about to walk into the house, when suddenly he said "Stop!", roots took root under his feet, and he couldn't move anymore.Turning back slowly, facing Shang Shuyi's dark and cold eyes, pretending to be innocent, he said in surprise, "Master? Why are you here? Before you came, you didn't—"

Send someone to let me know...

Before he finished speaking, he was carried back to the house by the lapel of his clothes like a rabbit, closed the door, and began to settle accounts, "Do you despise my words?"

Shen Yanzhi felt aggrieved, "How dare I..."

"Do you think I'm blind or deaf?"

Shen Yanzhi continued to maintain an aggrieved expression, looking up with pitiful eyes, even if Shu Yi wanted to get angry, he couldn't say anything serious, pointed at him for a long time, and finally only cursed four words, "... Be proud of being favored!"

I don't know how many times he said these four words.

Shen Yanzhi chuckled, walked over and pulled up Shuyi's sleeve, "I really asked them to take it down and wipe it when I saw it was dusty, and I will let him hang it up again later."

My heart ached to bleed.

Shu Yi glanced at him sideways, "You're acting like I'm a fool again, aren't you?"

Shen Yanzhi finally couldn't help laughing out loud, he couldn't even make up a lie, he could only beg for mercy, "I made a mistake, the emperor's words... I really don't dare to compliment you..."

The fire that was about to be extinguished was revived again, and he pointed at Shen Yanzhi's forehead and cursed, "I'm not flattering you? You can get on the stage when you think of your hairpin flower and lower script? What about knowing people and doing things well, benevolent and caring for the people, and improving internal affairs? Shen Yanzhi, Shen Yanzhi, why didn't I know when you learned to be so glib?"

Thinking of Shen Yanzhi's difficult questions, I can't laugh or cry. The way of the monarch and ministers was well written before, but as I read it, I always changed the way to praise some flattering words of the current monarch. Otherwise, Shu Yi would not even see his Ce Wen, and thanks to Xu Huai, who has always been upright, he was able to pick out his Ce Wen and submit it, and then said, "This person has a fair literary talent, and what Ce Wen said also has some different opinions, but ...the character still needs to be considered..."

Shu Yi raised his eyebrows when he saw that word, "According to Xu Aiqing's words?"

Xu Huai raised his eyes, bowed and bowed, "You can take risks, just to find flowers"

This is the final word.

After listening to Shu Yi's words, Shen Yanzhi was stunned for a while, the smile on his mouth gradually faded, replaced by an unbelievable and secretly hopeful one, "You mean, you've won the list?"

Shu Yi didn't look at him, and hummed lightly, Shen Yanzhi didn't react for a long time.His policy questions were said to be flattering words, but every word and every word was written in response to Xu Huai's temperament. Forgive Xu Huai for being unscrupulous when he first entered the palace. Gradually polished smooth, as long as the words between the lines are inseparable from respecting the emperor and loving the people, it will be regarded as being in Xu Huai's favor.

It is also opportunistic.

Seeing that Shen Yanzhi hadn't moved, Shu Yi glanced at him again, and snorted coldly, "What are you still doing in a daze, seeing that you entered the Hanlin Academy, the plaque doesn't need to be hung anymore, are you happy?"

He hugged Shuyi, closed his eyes, exerted a lot of strength in his hands, without saying a word, but was full of joy.

Shu Yi couldn't hold back in the end, and hugged him back with a smile. If it wasn't for telling him the good news personally, he wouldn't have left the piles of memorials alone and went out to the palace on purpose, but seeing the person in his arms was happy So far, it is worth it, "When you enter the Imperial Academy, you will work under Xu Huai. Didn't you two meet when you were hunting? He also saved your life"

Speaking of this, Shen Yanzhi shuddered suddenly. Shu Yi still didn't know the entanglement between him and Xu Huai. He left without saying goodbye, and now he is working under him as a scout of Xinke?Who knows if Xu Huai will avenge himself publicly?But Yi didn't know that others didn't know, but he knew that on the surface Xu Huai said that he was a gentleman, but in reality he was narrow-minded and refused to take any grievances.

Hesitantly, "Can't you change someone?"

Shu Yi patted him lightly, "After a few months, the crown prince will be appointed. I intend to let Xu Huai be the crown prince's tutor. You can work hard with him, and the benefits will be indispensable to you."

The implication is that this matter has been decided, don't talk too much.Shen Yanzhi could only sigh, admitting that his fate was miserable, and buried his head on Shuyi's shoulder, and he spoke again after a long time, and said sullenly, "Inscription another plaque for me."

"what?"

"Isn't it going to be replaced with a new plaque? Give me another two words"

Shu Yi smiled, "Didn't you dislike my words?"

Shen Yanzhi also laughed, "How dare you dislike it, this time I just don't take it down..."

The author has something to say: In fact, I haven't finished writing this paragraph, crying...

Please ignore the poor word count...more tomorrow...I swear...swear...swear...

Woohoo, keep crying
