In the end, the surprise did not come as a surprise. Chang Zhong remained cold-faced. No matter how thick-skinned he was, a few concubines could not stay any longer. Not to mention Zhou Houfu, they would still be hanging around in the Hanlin Academy. Zhou Changzhi's reputation was still resounding!
The Zhuo family in the capital attracts everyone's attention. Without the title of Duke, the Zhuo family lives in a house with good status. Even if the decoration is low-key, it still cannot catch the eyes of those who are calculating.
When Zhulan went to the academy, he thought he would see Zoya, but he did not see Zoya.
Zhulan couldn't help but ask, "Zoya hasn't been here?"
Jiang Ling said: "Zhuo Ya didn't come to the college even once when something happened to the Zhuo family."
Zhulan didn't believe that the Zhuo family would let Zoya go. Now that the Zhuo family didn't have many trump cards, Zoya's reputation would become a life-saving card. She was thinking that Zoya could withstand the pressure
Zhulan soon stopped thinking about it. Zoya didn't have much to do with her.
Zhulan was more concerned about the roster in her hand, "There are already five classes?"
Jiang Ling, "Since the teaching books have been changed, more and more female students have come to study recently, and there are people signing up every day."
Zhulan looked through the roster. The girls who came here specifically to learn knowledge were all relatively young. She touched the cover of the book and said, "I'm very happy."
These are the foundation of the future girls’ college and the source of her confidence.
Jiang Ling had a bright smile on her face, "I like to watch the children become dazzling beings."
The women's college is running well, and the thinking of the first children to enroll has changed a lot. Even some parents have realized that girls and boys can be relied on equally. The status of girls in the families near the college has improved a lot.
Zhulan stayed at the academy for almost a day. She is not so diligent in coming to the academy now. After Jiang Ling got married, she gave up a lot of power. She is waiting for Shao Ting to get married. When Shao Ting comes back to the academy, she can be more Take it easy. .
On the way back to the city, Zhulan was still thinking about the day when Minghui would get married. Minghui was not young, so they discussed the date of getting married after next spring.
Zhulan had a smile on her face, because she and the Wei family were on the same page, and because of the Wei family's boss's relationship with Haiwu, the date of Chang Zhong's marriage would have to wait a few more days to discuss.
The carriage stopped and Qingxue asked, "What happened?"
The coachman lowered his voice and said, "The carriages in front have overturned."
Upon hearing this, Zhulan motioned to Qingxue to take a look. She saw that the carriage that was about to enter the city overturned, and there were several carriages at the same time!
Qingxue came back quickly, "The Zhuo family picked up Zoya's carriage."
Zhulan still thinks about Zoya today, "Who picked her up?"
Zoya will not come back on her own without anyone picking up.
Qingxue replied, "Zoya's mother and sister-in-law."
Zhulan squinted her eyes, "Zoya's sister-in-law?"
If she remembers correctly, she is the daughter of Earl Ye's family!
Because it was close to the city gate, there were many city gate guards who quickly dealt with the carriage. Zhulan got the news that Zhuo Guyu's wife had a miscarriage, and his mother also injured her leg. Zhuo Ya was lucky and only suffered minor injuries, but at this time she was slightly injured. Injuries will be blamed!
Zhulan felt quite heavy. The bottom line was really low when it came to attacking women or pregnant women.
In the evening, Zhulan asked, "When will the results be available?"
Zhou Shuren said, “We still have to wait.”
Zhou Shuren thought that his wife was worried about Ming Yun, so he told more about Ming Yun's situation. Ming Yun was backed by the Zhou Hou Mansion and had just been transferred there, so it would not be easy to get involved with Ming Yun. The family was afraid that Zhou Hou Mansion would be offended and they would not be able to handle it.
The current Zhouhou Mansion has a wide network of connections, and they are all clear-minded allies. Their power is terrifying, and this does not include the son-in-law of King Qin.
Zhulan talked about the disaster that happened to the Zhuo family today, "You attacked the women. Was this because you were forced to give a warning?"
Zhou Shuren said with contempt in his eyes, "The methods are really cunning."
Zhulan added: "I don't know how Earl Ye will react?"
Zhuo Guyu's marriage days are endless, and it is not easy to have good news. But this time the child is gone. Why did they attack the Zhuo family's eldest family? It is obvious that the Zhuo family is now supported by Zhuo Guyu!
Zhou Shuren said quietly: "You have to know that the Ye family has never spoken out, and the meaning is already obvious."
Zhulan was silent. The loss of the title of the Zhuo family meant that Mrs. Zhuo Guyu was abandoned by her natal family, and she would not react if something happened this time.
The next day, Chang Zhong and Chang Zhi arrived at the Hanlin Academy on time. They saw Zhuo Guyu as soon as they entered the Hanlin Academy. The two of them unexpectedly saw Zhuo Guyu. The more trouble happened to the Zhuo family, the more stable Zhuo Guyu had to be.
But Zhuo Guyu's eyes were obviously blue, and he obviously hadn't rested well.
Zhuo Guyu greeted him and said, "I have met Mr. Zhou."
Chang Zhong also wanted to see him, Zhuo Guyu stayed in the Hanlin Academy and got promoted.
Chang Zhi had no intention of talking, nodded and left with his younger brother, leaving only his back to Zhuo Guyu.
Zhuo Guyu was in a daze. He had seen his wife sitting alone in the study last night. He was really tired but had to hold on. He was the only one in the family who was an official. He was a little relaxed and waited for the Zhuo family to fall into the abyss.
Zhuo Guyu squeezed his palms. Recently, many people have gone to the Zhuo family to propose marriage. They are not interested in the daughter of the Zhuo family, but in the dowry of the daughter of the Zhuo family. But who are the people proposing marriage for the cousins? Either he was a dandy, or he was a spoiled bastard in his family. He was clearly thinking about the money of the Zhuo family.
Zhuo Guyu pursed his lips. He was very envious of Gu Sheng now. He saw Gu Sheng a few days ago. Gu Sheng was having tea with the head of Anhe County. He had no worries about the future. He was so envious. If he and Anhe County If the Lord gets engaged, the Zhuo family will not be in the situation they are in today.
Zhuo Guyu pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly. Now he couldn't even catch up with Gu Sheng. He heard that the future prince-in-law was very protective of his friend Gu Sheng. He heard that Gu Sheng had become a guest of many people!
In Zhouhou Mansion, Zhulan became concerned about the Zhuo family because of yesterday's disaster. She knew to ask Zhao and Su Xuan for sure.
Mrs. Zhao, "Mom, the Zhuo family is having a hard time, and the girls in their family don't dare to go out."
Su Xuan answered, "I'm afraid that I will lose my reputation when I go out and have to get married in the end."
Bamboo orchid, "..."
Ms. Zhao added: "Those who went to the Zhuo family to propose marriage had a fig leaf for themselves. Some people just waited for the Zhuo family to lose and took action directly."
Su Xuan whispered: "The Zhuo family has sold many shops and fields recently, and I bought a lot for Yuwen to add to her dowry."
Mrs. Zhao also stretched out her hand, "I also bought it for Yudie."
Zhulan said: "The price must not be high!"
Ms. Zhao nodded, "Yes, they are all lower than the market price."
Su Xuan sneered, "The Zhuo family did this deliberately to buy themselves time."
Zhao curled her lips. The Zhuo family's actions did appease some people, but it also whetted the appetites of many people. She sighed that the Zhuo family had no choice but to push down the wall. Now it's just a matter of whether the Zhuo family will fall completely.
Zhulan looked at the expressions of her two daughters-in-law and realized that the Zhuo family really didn't want to see them.
Li suddenly spoke, "Mom, what gift will our family give to the Zheng family's daughter when she gets married?"
The two families didn't have much contact, and there were no gifts except for important festivals. She was not sure how many gifts to give.
Zhulan counted the days, "Time flies so fast, the queen's anniversary is coming soon."
