Chapter 237 What else could this be but a coma?
Everyone was silent.
Zhang Sheren quickly took his leave and departed.
The old emperor pulled Chen Decai aside and asked to change rooms to sleep in.
Shen Zhiyi was completely bewildered.
"What's going on?"
"Whatever, whatever."
Shen Zhiyi yawned, tears welling in her eyes, and went back to her room to fall fast asleep.
It was still late morning.
The old emperor was unaware of Shen Zhiyi's power for the first time and thought she was ill.
So he even summoned the head of the Imperial Medical Academy to examine Shen Zhiyi.
The head of the Imperial Medical Academy had a blank face.
I don't want to come.
I don't want to see that living devil.
However, disobeying the Emperor's orders is considered defying the imperial decree.
Disobeying the imperial decree means he will meet the real King of Hell.
So here he is.
"How's it going? What's wrong with Shen Zhiyi? Oh, you old man, hurry up and tell me."
The head of the Imperial Medical Academy was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty, is Shen Lang merely asleep?"
"Fell asleep?"
The old emperor didn't believe it.
"Who sleeps for a full six hours?"
"I can't wake him up no matter how much I call him."
"What else could this be but a coma?"
The head of the Imperial Medical Academy wiped the cold sweat from his face and pointed tremblingly at Shen Zhiyi, who was sleeping like a log on the bed, saying, "Her."
The old emperor was stunned for a moment.
He quickly realized that the head of the Imperial Medical Academy was answering his first question.
Shen Zhiyi is the kind of person who can sleep for six hours straight.
The old emperor immediately felt guilty.
He began to recall how many hours of sleep Shen Zhiyi had given him when he went to work.
It took about two hours.
"what."
"This child must be exhausted."
The old emperor showed a look of pity, but his gaze changed immediately after falling on the head of the Imperial Medical Academy.
"What are you still standing here for? Don't disturb Shen Zhiyi's sleep."
With that, he pulled the person away.
Silence returned to the room.
The head of the Imperial Medical Academy gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty!"
"This old minister dares to speak presumptuously."
—I'm going to criticize you!
"The most direct reason why Shen Lang needs to sleep for so long is naturally because he has been traveling hard recently, but the real reason is that he doesn't get enough sleep in the first place!"
Look at yourself! What are you doing?!
The old emperor touched his nose guiltily.
"What you say makes sense. I will pay attention to it in the future."
He then put his hands behind his back and sighed, "Sigh, how come young people these days have no drive at all? When I was Shen Zhiyi's age, I could go three days and three nights without sleep."
"Young people are not as good as an old person like me."
*
Shen Zhiyi, who slept until the afternoon, was still unaware of what had happened.
All she knew was that when she woke up, many people rushed to invite her to dinner.
However, she ultimately chose to have dinner with Zhang Sheren.
However, the two decided not to spend their own money.
The cook at the magistrate's residence in Cai County is an absolute culinary genius; I'd like to go over and mooch a meal.
There's a reason why the magistrate of Cai County is so round and chubby.
The cook in this family deserves a lot of credit.
Zhang Sheren stretched and said lazily, "I'm fine with eating anywhere."
"Then let's go to the magistrate's house in Cai County."
"to make."
So the two went to the county government office.
The magistrate of Cai County, under the jurisdiction of the governor, naturally worked in the county government office.
[Hilarious! If the old emperor hadn't come, how could this guy have sat here so obediently while on duty?]
[You should know that this guy used to be lucky to come once a week; he usually just stayed at home enjoying his retirement, leaving any business at the government office to others.]
Upon hearing this eerie sound while inside the county government office, the county magistrate, under the shocked gaze of the county clerk, frantically ran outside.
The county magistrate and the county constable looked at each other in bewilderment.
"I never expected that the county magistrate's bulky body could be so agile."
"I didn't realize the magistrate was such a hidden talent."
The registrar ran in from outside, looked at the two men who were still unaware of the situation, and said helplessly, "Gentlemen, two superiors from the capital have arrived."
After a moment of stunned silence, the two men immediately ran towards the outside of the yamen as if by reflex.
He started cursing under his breath.
This county magistrate is really inconsiderate. When his superiors from the capital arrive, he doesn't even bother to take them along to greet them.
These high-ranking officials are all people you shouldn't mess with.
After all, those who could come out with the old emperor were the people who stood at the top of the pyramid in Daye.
They're all people we can't afford to mess with.
The governor and chief clerk of Yunzhou both sent them.
They were just low-level officials at the county level, and at this moment everyone was on edge, afraid of offending their superiors.
"Oh my, I had no idea that Shen Lang and Zhang Sheren would grace us with their presence. It is truly an honor for our humble county office."
The magistrate treated Shen Zhiyi and her companion with great hospitality, fearing most of all that he might displease Shen Zhiyi.
He had witnessed the power of this living ancestor.
You can't offend anyone, but this is the one you absolutely mustn't offend.
"I wonder if the two of you have come here because His Majesty has given you any instructions?"
The old emperor didn't give any instructions, just told Zhang Sheren to quickly fabricate one.
Shen Zhiyi secretly patted Zhang Sheren.
Zhang Sheren began to make things up with his eyes closed.
As expected of someone who writes history books, they've really gone to great lengths to describe it.
[Sigh, how can I tactfully tell this chubby magistrate that I want to eat the food prepared by his cook? Perhaps I should shift the blame to the old emperor! Just say that the old emperor wants to eat it.]
Shen Zhiyi's eyes lit up, and the more she thought about it, the better she felt her method was.
At that moment, she was completely unaware that the county magistrate of Cai County was terrified.
Will this work?
This court attendant is incredibly audacious.
He looked to Zhang Sheren for help, but the other party seemed unsurprised.
"This……"
Zhang Sheren looked at the magistrate of Cai County with disdain.
It seems all his courage is just in his flesh.
What is this? It's just using the old emperor's name as a front.
You know, the person next to him curses the old emperor when he's in a good mood, and he curses the old emperor when he's in a bad mood. But he's just using the old emperor as a pretext; the old emperor might actually be very happy to know that.
He patted the magistrate of Cai County, whose body was trembling like a sieve.
Calm down, calm down, don't act so ignorant.
"Cough cough."
Shen Zhiyi had decided on this reason and was just about to speak when the magistrate of Cai County spoke first.
"You two must not have eaten yet, how about I treat you to a meal?"
Shen Zhiyi's expression turned to pleasure at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Yeah."
Oh my, this round little thing understands me so well, it's like it can read my mind.
[Delicious food, delicious food, here I come!]
The county magistrate and county constable, who had just arrived, saw the county magistrate leading two officials from the capital into a carriage.
The two were furious.
"We've been serving the magistrate for many years now."
"Exactly, even without merit, there are still worries."
