Changzhi couldn't keep talking to Gu Sheng, so after answering, he went to appreciate paintings with his friends. Changzhi loved reading and had many books at home. His friends were all talented, and his words were very lively.
Gu Sheng did not come forward, but sat down to drink tea, just a little absent-minded. He liked to draw plum blossoms and drew many plum pictures. He touched the tea cup with his fingertips and laughed at his own overthinking.
In Yuwen's yard, Yudie grabbed the book and said, "Master Gu is here today."
"I know."
Yudie came to see the fun, but her sister's calm look put aside her gossip, "Don't you do something else?"
Yuwen took the book back and opened it to the leaf she had just read, "A picture of snow plum blossoms is enough."
She likes to moisturize things quietly, weaving a big web little by little, not to mention that her father now enjoys secretly testing his future son-in-law.
Yudie couldn't say anything, "This is too reserved. It's just a picture of plum blossoms without saying anything. If I want to talk about Mr. Gu, I won't think twice about it."
Yuwen smiled, "I don't need him to think too much, as long as there are traces in his heart."
Yudie trembled, "I just realized that among us sisters, you are the most terrifying."
Yuwen, "Thank you for the compliment."
Yudie decided not to offend Yuwen in the future. This girl didn't offend her and didn't pay attention to everything. If she angered her, who knew what kind of revenge there would be.
Yudie couldn't read the book and left without sitting for a while.
Yuwen's personal maid asked, "Miss, should I go to the front yard to inquire about news?"
"Need not."
Anyway, her father will tell her when he comes back, so why should she bother.
In the front yard, Chang Zhi found Gu Sheng drinking tea quietly and motioned to his friends to appreciate it first. He walked up to Gu Sheng and said, "Why don't you go over?"
Gu Sheng smiled and said, "It's an honor to see two paintings today. I'll just listen and taste them here."
Changzhi, "I heard that Zhang Dashi cherishes talents and intends to marry his little daughter to you."
As Gu Sheng entered the palace more and more times, it became difficult for Zhuo Guyu to suppress him. More and more people paid attention to Gu Sheng. Who wouldn't like a promising young man
Gu Sheng was surprised, "Who did you listen to?"
Changzhi, "Master Zhang asked me about you."
"You also know that I am not getting married, and there are many rumors about me."
Changzhi narrowed his eyes, "So you want to get married?"
Gu Sheng hurriedly shook his head, "I will not compromise for rumors, my mind has not changed."
Chang Zhi smiled a little deeper, stood up and patted Gu Sheng on the shoulder, "You are very good."
Gu Sheng was stunned. He couldn't suppress his inner thoughts. Then he shook his head. Mr. Zhou just cared about him. As for whether he really had any other thoughts, only he himself knew.
At noon at the household department, Zhou Shuren was surprised that the prince would come over, "Aren't you trying on wedding clothes today?"
Prince, "I've finished trying it on, so I'm back."
Zhou Shuren raised his head to look at the prince and said with a smile: "I met your highness for the first time back then. Your highness was still a child. In a few years, your highness will be getting married."
The prince was a little embarrassed, "I will move out of the palace by then."
Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "In the future, the prince will be the same as the old minister."
Living in the palace is convenient for going to court, but outside the palace, you will suffer.
The prince laughed out loud. He knew that Zhou Hou was against getting up early.
Zhou Shuren pushed the account books on the table to the prince, "The prince must read these carefully."
The prince looked at the thick account book and said, "Okay."
He studied a lot at the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the more he studied, the more he understood the power of Zhou Hou.
The prince and other guards picked up the account books, stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Zhou."
Without Zhou Hou in these years, the country would not have developed so well. Zhou Hou ensured that the country was safe.
Zhou Shuren was very satisfied with the prince. The emperor taught an excellent heir, but he also thought that the actions of the second prince were far from perfect.
The prince returned to a separate room, and Eunuch Li, who was close to him, asked: "Why didn't the prince tell the Marquis of Zhou that the emperor reprimanded the second prince today?"
The prince took an account book and said, "Marquis Zhou doesn't care about the actions of his second brother. Marquis Zhou knows in his heart that even if there is no second brother, Zhou Changyi's power will still be divided."
Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment. When he saw the prince looking at the account book seriously, he silently stepped aside and sighed in his heart. He thought he had learned a lot from following the prince since he was a child, but now he realized how shallow he was.
In the morning court two days later, the emperor came to court with a calm face, and all the ministers looked at each other. The weather has been good this year, with no floods or droughts. As the prince's wedding is approaching, the emperor's good mood cannot be hidden. What happened today
The emperor looked at the courtiers with sharp eyes, "Last night we sent news urgently from the grassland."
Zhou Shuren stared at the emperor. Something must have happened on the grassland, so the emperor would be angry and thinking about his eldest grandson!
As a result, the emperor fell silent after speaking. The emperor deliberately wanted to see the reactions of the ministers.
Zhou Shuren was anxious, but he could only wait patiently.
The emperor's eyes darkened, "Wu Ming was assassinated while inspecting the ranch. Fortunately, Zhou Mingyun followed him with many guards, and Wu Ming was able to avert the danger."
Zhou Shuren exhaled and said that his grandson was fine. He wondered in his mind who had done it. The grassland was successfully divided into states. Wu Ming was a real boss. The changes in the grassland were obvious to all. It was most intuitive from the perspective of taxation. It can be said that Wu Ming held a lot of weight in the emperor's heart. Heavy.
Wu Ming built a framework in the grassland, and someone wanted to pick peaches, so he assassinated him.
Your Majesty, "Okay, very good. I don't believe there is no insider behind the assassination of a hundred people. The method of killing with a borrowed knife is used well."
He was even more angry that the grassland had just stabilized. If the assassination was successful this time, would the forces that had not wiped out the grassland fight back? The grassland is unstable, and the hard work of the past few years has been wasted. How much manpower and material resources have been spent to build the grassland
Zhou Shuren endured it, but still couldn't help but stepped forward, "Your Majesty, are Wu Ming and my eldest son safe?"
The emperor calmed down his anger and said, "Both of them were not injured."
Zhou Shuren stepped aside and the emperor was furious. There was no need for him to add fuel to the fire and appear aggressive. The emperor would definitely investigate thoroughly anyway, and he just had to wait for the results.
Sometimes, instead of fighting, we fight. Just like now, the emperor knows more about Zhou Hou, and Zhou Hou protects his shortcomings, but he doesn't make trouble in the court. It doesn't mean he trusts him.
After the morning court ended, the emperor sent someone to check. They walked together in twos and threes. Even if they couldn't discuss openly, they knew what they wanted to say through eye contact.
Wang Ju comforted, "Don't worry."
Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."
He is really not worried. He trusts Wu Ming's ability. This will cost Wu Ming his life. He must be ready to take revenge from the boss. He really thinks Wu Ming is easy to bully!
Wang Ju saw the schadenfreude on Zhou Shuren's face, "!!"
Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, "Someone is going to be in trouble."
The emperor will not be merciful, and this time he has stepped on the emperor's bottom line.
Wang Ju swallowed, "Do I know something?"
Zhou Shuren looked at the ministers walking away in front and said quietly: "I'm just guessing."
"Guessed what?"
Zhou Shuren sneered, "Some people are too impatient."
