Chapter 1932 No clue
Li Shen returned to Prince Ji's Mansion without stopping, told the gatekeeper and the eunuchs not to enter, and then ran all the way back to the rear residence.
"Your Highness, what are you doing...?" Lan Yu'er asked curiously when she saw Li Shen.
“Oh, nothing, there are bad guys in the palace.
By the way, tell the servants to clean up a study room in the front yard. A teacher will come tomorrow to teach Xixi and Yangyang.
In addition, a study room was cleaned up in the back house as a place for the children to study in the future.
I selected some books from the library in the palace and put them in the study, such as the Spring and Autumn Annals and the Analects of Confucius. Although I cannot understand them now, I will just let them sit for now."
It is said that books are the golden house. Li Shen gave him a room full of books. No matter whether he could understand them or not, at least he had to have an environment to nurture these children.
Isn’t it said that you can not have a diploma but you cannot be without culture?
When Lan Yuer heard Li Shen's order, she immediately bowed:
"Yes, I will tell the servants to start cleaning up right away." She was Shi Teng, also a female official in the backyard of Prince Ji's mansion, in charge of the maids.
Li Shen nodded, hurried to the study, sat at the desk and began to write furiously.
"Your Highness, what are you writing?" Shitou asked carefully from the side.
Li Sheng stopped writing two lines and tilted his head to look at the stone.
"That... Your Majesty, please calm down. I can't read." Seeing Li Shen's eyes as sharp as a knife, Shi Tou felt a chill on his neck and hurriedly explained.
"If you can't read, get out of my way." Li Shen glared at him and continued to write.
Soon, Li Shen wrote a long article. Looking at his masterpiece, Li Shen sighed from the bottom of his heart:
"Perfect!!!"
"Xiangxiang, how about what I wrote?" Li Shen turned around and looked at Chunxiang.
"Replying to Your Highness, that... is very good. Your Highness's writing is indeed in the style of a great master." Xiangxiang replied seriously after carefully identifying it.
Although she has followed Li Shen since she was a child, she still cannot understand Li Shen's cursive calligraphy.
"See that, you bastard? Learn more from Xiang Xiang in the future. You know nothing. This is called calligraphy." Li Shen turned around and kicked the stone.
"Yes, yes, I am not well-educated and I know I was wrong." Shitou nodded repeatedly. He was sure that Chunxiang didn't know him either.
They, including King Ji, grew up together. If he doesn't know them, Chunxiang won't know them either.
Besides, Chunxiang had not read as many books as he had, and Shitou was Li Shen's tutor after all.
"Hmph, by the way, how's your investigation going on the matter I asked you to explain yesterday?" Li Shen sat down and poured a cup of herbal tea.
He was talking about the servant in the front yard who was bitten yesterday.
"Your Majesty, I have asked someone to investigate and also asked Steward Wei.
According to housekeeper Wei, this man's surname is Gao and he is the third child in the family, so everyone calls him Gao Lao San, or Gao San'er.
The name was given to him by Steward Wei after the palace collapsed, and it was called Laicai. "
"Gao Laicai? Fugui is really good at naming." Hearing this person's name Laicai, Li Shen knew that Wei Fugui wanted this person to bring wealth to Prince Ji's Mansion.
Generally, the names of slaves are determined by their masters. This name is the name of the master.
However, many people will use the name given by the host as their own name. After all, the host must be well-educated and cultured.
But many masters would give their servants auspicious names in order to bring good luck to themselves.
Names like Lai Fu, Lai Cai, Fugui and the like. The name Wei Fugui was given to him when he was in the Wei Mansion.
"You go on."
"Yes, Mr. Gao is only 27 years old and has been in the palace for four years. I heard from Steward Wei that he is usually very hardworking.
Mainly responsible for gardening, pruning, watering, etc. It is possible that he entered the backyard by mistake, because there are many flowers and plants and trees that need to be pruned near the backyard wall. "
Li Shitou paused. He knew that Prince Ji was going to speak. Sure enough, Li Shen slammed the table:
"Bullshit, pruning the garden, can it be used in the backyard? What is Fugui thinking, thinking with his butt?
There are only three doors in the backyard, could it be that he can walk through walls?"
Li Shen felt that Wei Fugui was too old and had something wrong with his brain.
After saying a few words, he looked up at the stone:
"What's the result of your investigation? Did he really enter the back house by mistake?"
"My Lord, we still don't know why he entered the backyard, but I have already investigated and he definitely didn't enter the backyard by mistake."
"Oh? How can you be so sure? Did you find out something?"
Hearing this, Li Shen interrupted again.
"This... Your Majesty, please forgive me. We haven't found out yet. I said he didn't enter by mistake, and I asked the guard at the west gate who was closest to him when he was bitten.
Both eunuchs said they had not seen Gao Lao San. I suspect he climbed over the wall to get in. "Shitou shook his head. He hadn't found anything for half a day.
"Climbed over the wall? The wall is nearly ten feet high. Could it be that he knows martial arts?" Li Shen was a little skeptical. An ordinary person would definitely not be able to climb over a three-meter-high wall.
If you say it is a guard or a sharp blade, Li Shen thinks it is more common, and a general like Xue Rengui can also be turned over.
But he was just an ordinary servant.
"Your Highness, I have sent people to monitor Gao Lao San. So far, we have not found any evidence that he knows martial arts. If he knew martial arts, he should not have been bitten by a dog."
Stone explained.
"What do you think? Could it be that the eunuchs guarding the gate lied? They neglected their duty and failed to guard the gate, and as a result something went wrong. They are afraid so they dare not speak out?"
Compared to someone climbing over the wall, Li Shen believed more in the theory of dereliction of duty. The two people didn't know what they were doing, but they were taken advantage of.
"Your Highness, I have already interrogated those two people. They don't seem to be lying."
Shitou shook his head and reported. Of course, he had also thought of this possibility, so he interrogated the two eunuchs.
Li Shen still believed in Shi Tou's ability to get things done. He could curse himself, but there was no doubt about Shi Tou's ability to get things done.
“It’s not that I’m derelict in my duty, but I still don’t quite believe that he climbed over the wall to get in.
You continue to send people to investigate this matter, but don't alert the enemy. Report immediately if you find any news."
Li Shen still couldn't believe this fact. If someone could just climb over the wall and come in, wouldn't his own Ji Wang Mansion be in tatters? Anyone could come in.
"Yes, Your Highness. I am investigating and will inform Your Highness as soon as I have any news." Shi Tou quickly obeyed the order.
"Okay, go call Wang Xuance and tell him that I have something to discuss with him."
There was no clue about this matter, so Li Shen could only put it aside for now.
Shitou agreed and quickly retreated, and soon Wang Xuance arrived.
"Your Majesty, I am here to see you. I wonder if you have any instructions for me?"
