Together with the gift from my grandfather, everything my mother had saved from my father in the past two years was given to him.
He is a man who likes to save money, so he is very rich.
As for the female relatives, it was the first time that Xue Han organized such a large banquet. All the famous people in the capital were invited today. Even though Xue Han was calm and composed, she was still young and a little scared. She glanced at her mother from time to time, and only when she met her mother's encouraging gaze did she relax a little.
The Crown Princess observed carefully, and noticed all the little movements of her brother and sister-in-law. She couldn't help but look at Yang, who had been talked about recently. She thought to herself that Yang didn't look like she came from the countryside. Even though the Yang family later became military generals, it couldn't change Yang's identity when she got married.
The Crown Princess couldn't figure it out and could only guess that it must have been Lord Zhou's mother, the young lady of the Rong family, who taught her later.
The Crown Princess thought of foreign knowledge, and she also found a few books to read. Unfortunately, she had no basic knowledge and could not figure it out on her own.
Zhulan has a good position. She can feel jealous and contemptuous glances from time to time. Her background cannot be changed, and many mistresses still look down on her.
Zhulan wanted to laugh. She looked down on her but was jealous of her at the same time. Suddenly she laughed out loud.
Li sat behind her mother and asked, "Mother, what's the happy news for you?"
Zhu Lan's eyebrows curved, "I thought that your father was attracting hatred outside, and I was also attracting a lot of hatred among the women in the back house."
Li, “… . . . .”
She really admired her mother-in-law's mentality. Looking at the ladies whose eyesight was not good after hearing the voice, her mother-in-law smiled more and more brightly.
Zhou Shuren didn't know that his wife was stirring up hatred at the women's banquet, but he was full of hatred for the rich, and it seemed that he was bringing it all back home.
Rongchuan was already bleeding. Noticing the look in his father-in-law's eyes, he felt a chill on his back, "..."
The prince also saw it and fell silent. Lord Zhou was becoming more and more like a Pi Xiu. It was now more difficult for him to transfer money to the Ministry of Revenue than before. He was an ambitious man and could already think of playing Tai Chi with Zhou Shuren in the future for military expenses.
The banquet had not yet ended when the prince received the news. His face darkened slightly. Although the change was not significant, people who were familiar with the prince knew that he was unhappy.
It was not until the banquet was over that Zhang Yang got the news. He heard the jailers talking about the grand occasion in the Prince Qin's Mansion today. In order to disgust Rong Chuan, he actually committed suicide in prison.
Rongchuan was stunned when he heard the news. The palace coup was over when Rongchuan came back. Then he was very busy and had long forgotten about Zhang Yang. Even though Zhang Yang wanted to disgust him, he really didn't care.
The prince was unhappy. Everything was perfect when Rongchuan returned to the royal family, but then Zhang Yang was thrown into a mass grave with a straw curtain.
King Liang just smiled when he heard it. He was hurt by Zhang Yang, but he was too proud to do such a mean thing as to abuse the loser. The man was dead and he was dead.
After the grand ceremony at the Prince of Qin's Palace ended, the foreigners who were brought back from the island were convicted according to the newly enacted law because they were later convicted of intentionally spreading abscesses, which completely sealed their crimes.
The prince used tough measures to tell all foreigners that here they could only abide by the laws of the court.
Even the foreigner who shouted in the cell that he was the duke's son still escaped.
The evidence is conclusive, and the foreigners know it in their hearts. Some foreigners are shouting to sever diplomatic ties and want to unite with other countries. Unfortunately, the prince only adopts the method of winning over some of them, and the envoys from various countries, which were not united to begin with, have no cohesion at all.
Then the new law was vigorously promoted. The foreign officials who had been under house arrest returned to the Ministry of Rites and continued to do translation work. Legal booklets and picture albums were distributed.
Zhou Shuren was also particularly happy to allocate money.
Rong Chuan was so busy that he only sat down to rest after he came to collect the money. Zhou Shuren felt sorry for his son-in-law, "It's only been a few days, why do you seem to have lost weight?"
Rong Chuan whispered, "Brother Crown Prince is using me as three people."
Zhou Shuren, "The prince recognizes your ability. You are doing very well in the Propaganda Department."
Zhou Shuren did not give any support in this regard. He just watched Rongchuan do his job on his own the whole time. Now the Propaganda Department was built up by Rongchuan bit by bit. He must be praised.
Rongchuan was very happy to receive the praise from his father-in-law. If he had a tail, it would have been lifted up. "I can have the ability I have now, thanks to my father's teachings."
Zhou Shuren, "And the Emperor and Lord Rong, they also taught you a lot."
Rongchuan smiled and shook his head. The teachings were different. His father-in-law taught him how to make a living, his father taught him how to be a good prince and a good minister, and his third uncle taught him how to communicate.
Rong Chuan continued, "Dad, I won't stay any longer. I'm going back first."
"Okay, you should also pay more attention to rest."
At Zhou Mansion, Zhulan received a letter from Xuzhou saying that everything was fine at Changlian Mansion and that her family didn't need to worry.
Zhulan was finally relieved. Although she heard from Zhou Shuren that Xuzhou was fine, she was still worried because she hadn't received any letter from Dong.
Then Zhulan continued to read the letter and discovered that Dong's sister-in-law had actually arrived in Xuzhou.
Although Mrs. Dong did not mention it in the letter, she still guessed that Mrs. Dong's sister-in-law must not have told Mrs. Dong when she went to Xuzhou. Zhulan muttered, "The Dong family really cares about Chuchu's pregnancy."
Li was also diligent in receiving letters from her mother's family and knew a lot about the Dong family. "I heard from my mother that the Dong family is making a lot of trouble now. Master Dong can no longer control it. The other families think that only the eldest family has taken advantage of them, and they have been making trouble for the past two years."
Zhulan really didn't know, "Mrs. Dong didn't say."
Then she paused. This was a shameful thing in her mother's family, so how could Dong possibly tell it
Li said, "Mom, our family has changed so much that the other branches of the Dong family can't take advantage of it. The Dong family will only make more trouble. I'd rather just split up the family."
Zhulan, "Do you think it's a good idea to split up the family?"
Mrs. Li nodded. "I think it's a good idea to split up the family. After the split, the other branches of the Dong family won't be able to take advantage. My third brother and his wife know this."
Zhulan smiled, "You see clearly."
Li, "I just think that my third brother's wife is a sensible person. This can be seen from the fact that the Dong family has not come to the capital in the past few years."
She thinks her third brother’s wife is amazing!
Zhulan is not worried about Dong. Mrs. Song represents her and will take good care of Dong.
In a blink of an eye, another five days passed. Some delegations from various countries got what they wanted and left, while others left unwillingly.
What surprised Zhou Shuren was, "Isn't Prince Joey going back to his country?"
This person actually stayed!
Prince Joey smiled shyly, "I like your country, so I want to stay for a while. Your Crown Prince also invited me to stay and attend the coronation ceremony, so I stayed."
Zhou Shuren listened to the translation and felt that this sentence contained a lot of information. "Your Highness the Crown Prince kept you here?"
Joey smiled and nodded, "Yes, I may come to visit you in the future. I'm sorry to bother you."
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard and looked deeply at Prince Joey. "Since His Royal Highness invites you to stay, I welcome you."
These two ambitious people are trying to stir up trouble!
Zhou Shuren thought about the coronation ceremony and counted the days. There were only a few days left.
