Chapter 834 Letter
Half a month later, the results of the first round of the autumn examination came out.
Although he was certain that his brother would get good grades, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but find a restaurant nearby early to wait for the results to be announced.
Not long after, officials came to post the notice, and Shen Shuyi immediately asked Qin Xin, who was very skilled in martial arts, to go and investigate.
After a while, Qin Xin came back with a smile on her face: "Madam, Master Shen won the first place!"
Shen Shuyi was in a good mood, feeling a sense of happiness that everything had settled.
"Come on, I'll invite you to have dinner at the restaurant today." Shen Shuyi had just gone downstairs and unexpectedly met Yan Song.
Yan Song was also stunned for a moment when he saw Shen Shuyi, and then said: "Greetings to Princess Mingzhu."
Shen Shu was happy to see Yan Song: "Master Yan also participated in this year's autumn examination?"
Yan Song said: "I would also like to thank the princess for her advice that day."
At that time, Yan Song almost missed this year's preliminary examination. Under Shen Shuyi's persuasion, he left the Sixth Prince's Mansion and took part in the preliminary examination.
Although the results of this year's preliminary exam were not counted in the end due to the leak of the exam questions, Shen Shuyi was right. The preliminary exam was indeed a rare opportunity. At least it really helped him a lot in participating in the autumn exam.
"How are your grades?" Shen Shuyi asked with a smile, thinking that even if Yan Song was a few years ahead of his previous life, he should be able to get good grades.
"Thanks to the princess, I have successfully entered the next round."
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "This is the result of Master Yan's own efforts. I hope Master Yan can achieve his ambitions and get what he wants."
After saying goodbye to Yan Song, Shen Shuyi had a meal with a few people and then went directly to the Shen family.
Compared to the excitement last time when Shen Jingan got a good ranking, this time, the entire Shen family was very quiet and no longer dared to celebrate.
Although he didn't dare to celebrate, Shen Jingchuan still felt relieved and guilty.
He didn't say anything, but just asked Shen Shuhan to have dinner with him. During the meal, Shen Jingchuan drank a lot of wine. In the end, it was only after Shen Shuhan's persuasion that he finally came to his senses.
Old Madam Shen's illness had not shown any improvement, but because of Shen Shuhan's matter, she ate more and felt a little more energetic.
Shen Shuyi actually knew very well that the illness of Old Madam Shen and Shen Jingchuan was actually a face-saving disease.
In other words, after this incident, the Shen family fell into such a state, and they all felt ashamed, so they couldn't get over it and felt depressed.
But to put it bluntly, this is because she has lived too smoothly over the years. Otherwise, if she were like her and her brother, even staying alive would have become a luxury, so why would they bother thinking about face?
"Now that the first round of exams is over, Xiao Tingshan will probably secretly try to win over the students. I've asked Jiang Li to keep an eye on him." Shen Shuyi leaned back in his chair and spoke slowly.
"Well, these are not important. Xiao Tingshan has a weak foundation. If he wants to compete for the throne, it will be difficult to accomplish it without three to five years." Shen Shuhan chuckled and said.
Shen Shuyi did not deny it, what he said was true.
After all, in his previous life, Xiao Tingshan had the best of times, places and people, and it took him several years to get the position of crown prince.
Not to mention this life, he has already destroyed his initiative and luck by himself.
"Haven't you replied to Xie Jingchi for a long time?" Shen Shuhan looked at Shen Shuyi.
"Huh?" Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment.
Why did this bring up Xie Jingchi for no reason?
Shen Shuhan took out a letter and handed it to Shen Shuyi: "Jing Chi has already filed a complaint with me. You should write him a letter when you have time."
Shen Shuyi: "..."
Xie Jingchi is such a villain. She just didn't reply to his letter a few days ago, but he actually came to her brother to complain!
Childish devil!
"I understand." Shen Shuyi was completely speechless.
The last time Xie Jingchi wrote to her, she happened to be busy. Plus, he wanted her to paint a portrait of himself, so Shen Shuyi was too lazy to write and forgot to write back to him.
As a result, he turned around and reported the case to his brother.
He's really good at it.
"Brother, you have to be more careful these days. Xiao Tingshan is colluding with the Li clan, and now several masters of the Li clan have sneaked into the capital." Shen Shuyi thought of the purpose of today's visit.
Shen Shuhan nodded: "Well, with Chengxuan and Yunliang by my side, you can rest assured."
Shen Shuyi nodded without saying anything more. Then he chatted with Shen Shuhan for a while before leaving.
Ever since leaving the Shen Residence, Shen Shuyi had keenly sensed that someone was looking at her. She couldn't tell exactly where, but that look made her uncomfortable.
She looked normal until she got on the carriage, and Qin Xin whispered, "Someone is following us."
"Do you know a few?" Shen Shuyi asked.
Qin Xin said solemnly: "Not sure, at least five."
"Interesting." Shen Shuyi raised the corners of his lips, thinking that it was more likely that he was from the Li clan.
After all, at the moment, apart from Xiao Tingshan, there is probably no one else in the capital who has the ability to take action against her.
"Manju, go deliver a message to Jiuchou, and we'll take a detour to the suburbs." Shen Shuyi made a prompt decision.
She didn't like hiding all the time, so she might as well get it out of the way. It just so happened that she also wanted to see the capabilities of this so-called Li clan.
"Yes." Agate got out of the car.
The car drove all the way to the gate of Xie's house, and Yuping ran out of the house: "Miss, there is a letter from Mr. Xie."
"It just so happens that I have a reason to go to the suburbs." Shen Shuyi thought that he had an urgent matter after receiving the message, and estimated that Jiuchou's time was about the same, so he avoided the downtown area and went to the suburbs of Beijing.
The people of the Li clan were different from other assassins. Even if they had a deep hatred, they would not dare to take action in crowded places in the capital.
Sitting in the car, Shen Shuyi opened the letter and pondered the time of the letter, which was two days earlier than the previous one.
As he read line by line, Shen Shuyi's brows furrowed more and more.
The water sources in the Liangzhou area were poisoned, and most of the Liangzhou soldiers were poisoned. Although the poison was not fatal, they were weak and exhausted. Not only did they consume a large amount of medicinal herbs, but they also lost their combat capability.
The Tiger Army under the command of the Wolf King was not spared either, and one third of them were poisoned.
Yuan Xia took the opportunity to launch a strong attack, and the situation was critical.
Fortunately, the Wolf King was experienced, famous for his killing skills, and well-versed in the habits of the Yuanxia army, so he did not fall into a disadvantage.
But if the poison is not cured, Liangzhou will not be able to hold out for long.
Once Liangzhou is lost, Daqian will be at a disadvantage.
Shen Shuyi frowned, it was too much of a coincidence. She suspected that the poison was caused by the Li clan. Xie Jingchi and the Wolf King sent many doctors, but none of them could cure the poison.
In addition, due to limited water resources, the lives of soldiers and civilians will inevitably be greatly affected.
If this continues, Liangzhou will be in danger.
Shen Shu thought that it seemed that he had to ask Mr. Liancheng to go to Liangzhou. However, he was not sure how much confidence Mr. Liancheng had in the secret methods and poison techniques used by the Li clan.
If that doesn't work, then we have to start from the root, that is, from the Li clan.
