Zhulan wanted to leave as many things as possible to future generations, so she spent a lot of money on this.
Zhou Shuren said: "Then I'll wait to see the finished product."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Okay."
The couple ate crabs in the evening, but the crabs were cold, so they didn't eat much. After dinner, they went out for a walk.
Zhulan admired the scenery, "I really enjoyed it."
In modern times, we don't have such great ability to have such a house in the capital. Well, we don't have the current environment either.
Zhou Shuren laughed and said, "Thank me quickly."
Zhulan was happy, "My little lady thanks the Marquis for his efforts."
Without Zhou Shuren to reach his current position, she would never have thought of living a comfortable life even if she had the ability to make money.
No one dares to mess with the Zhou family in Pingzhou, and the county magistrate must be polite every time he goes to Zhoujia Village, also because of Shuren's power.
Zhou Shuren raised his chin and said, "Help me, master, let me go back."
Zhu Lanpi smiled and said, "You're a little lost!"
Zhou Shuren coughed and said, "Help your wife go back for your husband."
Zhulan stretched out her fat hand and said, "Let's walk."
"Okay."
Then the couple looked at each other and laughed out loud. Despite their age, they still joked when they should joke, and their attitude was very good!
The servants were a few steps behind, and their eyes lit up with laughter when they heard the laughter. As a servant, who doesn't want to have a good master? I think they are willing to fight, and they are not cheap and want to be abused!
The servants in the Hou's Mansion can get married when they are old, stay in the mansion and continue working as errands, or go to Zhuangzi, all based on their personal wishes. The servants of the Zhou Hou's Mansion are envied by most of the servants in the capital.
The next day, Zhulan knew what Shuren said, and General Yu's legitimate daughter entered the palace after the anniversary of the Supreme Emperor.
Zhulan thought to herself that the emperor is really a good father. He planned the plan himself and did not use the prince to draw some attention away from the princess.
Xue Han whispered: "Mom, Rong Chuan said that the emperor's goal is to gain military power."
Zhulan knew more than Rongchuan. Rongchuan had been writing scriptures in the palace. After the death of the Supreme Emperor, Rongchuan only entered the palace once!
Xue Han added: "I went to see the Crown Princess. Fortunately, the Crown Princess is in good health. She will be fine after taking a few doses of anti-fetal medicine."
"It's okay."
Otherwise it will be bloody again.
The emperor is not good at garrisoning generals, not only because they hold military power, but also because of the military merits of the generals. Some people's moral deeds cannot be erased even if they are evil, and some of the in-laws among the generals also give the emperor a headache.
The purpose of choosing General Yu's legitimate daughter to enter the palace is to divide some people.
Xue Han added: "There is news that the Crown Princess's baby is a boy."
Zhulan, "Why didn't I hear about it?"
"If you don't pay attention, I have heard the news."
Zhulan's mind was spinning quickly, "You must have spread it like this on purpose. This time the Crown Princess had fetal contractions because of the rumors."
Xue Han lowered his voice, "I'm afraid of my eldest son."
Zhulan sneered, "Someone deliberately spread the news, and their calculations were quite good."
Xuehan pointed to the sky, "It's all for this."
The emperor's eldest son succeeded to the throne, and the prince is also the eldest son. At present, the emperor has been suppressing several princes. Everyone can see that the prince's status is stable at present. Some people also want to wait until the emperor is older to be suspicious of the prince. But there is a precedent of the emperor abdicating the throne. Everyone will think more.
Not only are they currently focusing on the prince's backyard, but the princess's pregnancy has become a thorn in his side. The best thing is that the prince cannot give birth to a child, and secondly, the prince only gives birth to daughters!
Zhulan said: "It is dangerous for the Crown Princess to give birth."
The ambitions of aristocratic families are unsatisfactory. Who wouldn’t want to create an emperor with his own bloodline
Xue Han said quietly: "Princesses were not so dangerous before."
The Queen is also a Crown Princess, so the Queen's childbirth is not as dangerous as it is now.
Zhulan was happy, "No one can make any mistakes. The three emperors are all the eldest sons."
When his eldest son succeeds to the throne, he naturally hopes that his successor will also have the same status. Doesn't it mean that the crown princess has become a high-risk profession!
A few days later, the emperor's acceptance of a concubine exploded in the hearts of the generals, which caused cracks in the close relationship with the Yu family. However, no one thought that Miss Yu would be able to successfully enter the palace as a concubine a year later.
Zhulan and his wife had a chat, and they agreed that this young lady from the Yu family only had one year to live.
Zhou Shuren had speculated that the emperor was not planning to have more children, but it was never confirmed.
After a few days, there were a lot less rumors about the Zheng family, but more about the Shenyu family, not just the Yu family, but also about several military generals, which made it lively.
Zhou Shuren never said much. Even if the emperor talked to him, he would not make any remarks. The emperor could figure out military power by himself.
That day the emperor said: "I really didn't expect the patent fees to be so high."
Zhou Shuren said in an excited tone, "This is beyond my expectation. The Ministry of Industry has patent fees that can save a lot of money every year. Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry can save money. I can consider the Emperor's proposal."
Your Majesty, "..."
No, that's not what he meant. He wanted to say that the Ministry of Household Affairs also collected a lot of patent fees!
Zhou Shuren sneered in his heart and wanted to take the money from his hand, bah.
The emperor had a bad toothache and said, "This year is very prosperous."
"I'm poor. The reservoir has not been repaired. The previously repaired river embankments need to be repaired. Yes, the navy lost a warship a few days ago. I don't think there is any surplus."
The navy had a fight with the pirates, and they got angry when they mentioned this. Pirates were indeed pirates, and their weapons and ships were not what pirates could have. I don’t know if it was one country or multiple countries behind it. Anyway, the imperial court lost a warship.
The emperor's expression was not good either, "They are developing very fast."
Zhou Shuren also admitted, “So not making progress means retreating.”
The emperor was still proud of himself. Two battleships were besieged, and one sank after returning to the port, while the other was destroyed by the regiment. "You are right, in the future it is the foreigners, not the people on the grasslands, that we need to guard against."
On the street, Yuwen and Gu Sheng drank tea together. This time, there was no one else around. The two of them drank tea by the window, as if they had met by chance.
Yuwen asked, "That Master Ji will still bother you?"
Gu Sheng was also speechless, "It's not as frequent as before. I still give gifts from time to time."
Yuwen touched the tea cup and said, "I heard that someone is looking for you."
Gu Sheng looked at the passers-by on the street, "Well, I haven't seen them either."
He had entered the palace more times than Zhuo Guyu. He knew why he was looking for him and simply returned.
Yuwen was in a good mood and just about to talk, she saw Zoya. Zoya was not alone. After getting married, Zoya wore her hair in a woman's bun. She did not feel happy about the wedding, but had a look of impatience on her face.
When Zhuo Ya saw An He, she took a deep breath and wanted to turn around and leave. When she saw Mr. Gu, her eyes widened, and her face turned even worse in the end.
Zoya didn't understand what was wrong with her elder brother, so she took a step forward and said, "I have met the county leader."
Yuwen raised her eyebrows, "I haven't congratulated you on your wedding yet, so it's not too late to say congratulations today."
Zoya, "..."
So angry, she didn't feel happy at all.
Yuwen said again: "You still have something to do? It's okay to block the light."
Zoya pinched her fingers, "I really didn't expect that the county master's vision was just like this."
Yuwen pointed at the person who came in after Zoya, "Well, you have good taste."
Zoya, "..."
