There is also a happy event for the royal family this year. The eldest princess is finally getting married. The emperor can really keep a daughter. The age of the princess's marriage also affects the people.
Due to the improvement of women's status in recent years, the age at which women get married has also been delayed after they graduate from college and earn money.
Zhulan is happy. Getting married late is good for girls, as well as for the children they give birth to. Zhulan has asked people to calculate the mortality rate of children who get married late. In the past, the base of late marriages was small, but now there is enough reference.
Now Zhulan is not only the dean of the women's college, but also the dean of the first women's college. The eldest princess and the direct Princess Jingxuan have become the honorary deans, because the two princesses have enrolled more students from official families and aristocratic families. female.
Zhulan left Jiang Ling in the women's college, and Shao Ting, her grandson's daughter-in-law, helped her deal with the affairs of the women's college. Colleges and academies are very different. The academy teaches people how to make money, while academies learn knowledge.
On this day, Zhulan was reading the newspaper while wearing glasses. Her eyesight has declined rapidly in the past two years, and her vision becomes blurry without glasses.
Zhou Shuren came back early, stretched out his hand to take the newspaper, "Don't look at it to make your eyes tired."
Zhulan took off her glasses and massaged her eyes for a while. When she felt better, she opened her eyes and said with some jealousy: "You are older than me and have to face numbers all day long. How come your eyes are so good?"
Zhou Shuren handed the brewed scented tea to his wife, "I don't read the account books now and just listen to others read to me. You like to do it yourself. If you want to read the newspaper, let the children read to you."
Zhulan drank tea, "My daughters-in-law are too busy, my granddaughter-in-law Liu Jia is pregnant again, Shao Ting is too busy in the academy, and He Sishi is five months pregnant. Who do you think I can find to read the newspaper to?"
"Where is Changzhong's wife?"
Zhulan sighed, "Having a child is fate. The couple is still young and I am not anxious at all. But Xinyi is under a lot of pressure. I'd better not see the child alone."
Zhou Shuren was speechless, "If the emperor had not named her, Changzhong's wife would not be under such great pressure."
Zhulan, “Who says it’s not the case!”
Zhou Shuren said of Minghui and the others, "I don't know what their results will be this spring..."
Zhulan laughed, "Their exams haven't ended yet, but I think their results should be good. They are the most well-prepared."
Zhou Shuren added: "Today I taught the emperor's grandson how to read."
Only then did Zhulan react and looked back at the clock, "I think something is wrong. You've been coming back very early lately."
Zhou Shuren curled up his lips and said, "After hiding it for a few years, the Emperor intends to announce that I am the Emperor's grandson's master in the spring."
Zhulan thought of the Prince's Mansion, "I heard that the Prince's backyard will choose two concubines?"
Zhou Shuren, "It's not easy to be alone with the Crown Princess for so many years."
Zhulan frowned, "Which one announces you as the emperor's eldest grandson's master first, or chooses the concubine in the prince's backyard first?"
"First announce that I am Master Changsun."
Zhulan said: "The emperor also has the intention of beating."
"Well, the emperor's eldest grandson is the emperor's favorite. It can be said that he has been raised by the emperor in these years."
Since the death of the empress, the emperor has rarely gone to the harem. The emperor's thoughts are on educating the prince and the emperor's eldest grandson. The emperor's eldest grandson looks like the emperor at a young age.
When the Hanlin Academy came to the Yamen, Chang Zhong said to his fourth brother: "Fourth brother, I'm leaving first."
Changzhi, "Okay."
He also knew the pressure on his younger siblings. The more dazzling Chang Zhong was, the greater the pressure on his younger siblings. When he heard his wife say that there were many rumors against his younger siblings, he sneered. Some people just use having children as a reason for not being able to compare with their younger brothers!
Zhuo Guyu came out and said, "Master Zhou."
Changzhi nodded, then got into his carriage and left.
Changzhi looked at the Zhuo family's carriage through the carriage window. Without the title, the Zhuo family's life was very sad. If it weren't for the prince, the Zhuo family would have disappeared. Zhuo Guyu has become more and more mature in the past two years. This is worrying. of.
Thinking about this, Changzhi thought of his son-in-law. The son-in-law was older than Zhuo Guyu, but when they stood together, he didn't have to say that his son-in-law was young against his will. Now that the son-in-law looked younger than Zhuo Guyu, Changzhi thought of his married daughter. He was angry. If it weren't for Gu Sheng and others' pity, he would have wanted to keep his daughter for one more year.
Zhuo Guyu sat in the carriage, his heart was very peaceful. The decline of his family made him grow up, and he kept the entrustment of his grandfather's death in his heart.
If he wants to keep the Zhuo family, he must follow the prince closely and take on all the dirty work he can. Thinking of his newly born son, Zhuo Guyu has a smile on his face. Although his wife miscarried a child, luckily she is pregnant again. .
Zhuo Guyu looked in the direction of the third prince's palace. Who would have thought that the third prince would be recognized by the prince. The transparent third prince is now married and has a prince's palace. The wealth left by the Zhuo family has become the third prince's family fortune.
The third prince married a wife with a low family background, and his life was still prosperous. He even gave birth to a legitimate son last year.
On the other hand, the second prince still relies on the support of his mother's family, and the relationship between the second prince and his wife is not good.
Zhuo Guyu shook his head. What was he thinking about? What he should be thinking about was the achievements of his cousins Chunwei.
In the Wei family, when Chang Zhong arrived, his father-in-law and eldest brother-in-law had also just arrived home. Chang Zhong greeted him, "Father, eldest brother."
Master Wei smiled and said, "Let's have a nice drink today."
Changzhong, "Yes."
Chang Zhong had a change of clothes at his father-in-law's house. Today, his daughter-in-law returned to her parents' home. He stayed with her for two days. After changing clothes, he went to the main courtyard. Chang Zhong felt relieved when he saw his wife talking and laughing. My mood was very wrong, but I finally smiled today.
The food was already on the table, and Mrs. Feng motioned for her son-in-law to sit down, "Your father is just slow, let's wait for him."
Changzhong smiled and said, "Father works very hard."
Mrs. Feng thanked her son-in-law for being tolerant of her daughter, and said that she would come back and stay for two days if she came back with her. "You have compiled a lot of books in the past few years, and you have worked hard too."
At this time Master Wei came out and said, "You are all waiting for me!"
Feng said: "I'm just waiting for you."
Master Wei greeted, "Don't let my son-in-law be hungry. Come over and eat quickly."
Xinyi was jealous and said, "When my parents see their son-in-law, they can no longer see me as their daughter."
Master Wei laughed and said, "How old are you and are you still jealous of your husband?"
"No matter how old you are, you can't stop me from being jealous."
Feng pinched her daughter's nose and said, "You."
At the same time, I was happy because my daughter could be so lively when she got married because of her son-in-law's pampering.
The next day, when the morning court was over, the emperor left first, but the prince did not follow the emperor. All the ministers looked at the prince with doubts.
The prince left the main hall first, and the ministers followed him out one after another. Only then did they know the reason. It turned out that the emperor's eldest grandson was guarding outside the hall for unknown reasons.
The prince bent down and hugged the emperor's eldest grandson. The father and son looked at each other and smiled very affectionately. Some people were happy at this scene, and some people's eyes dropped.
Mr. Qi frowned, and then relaxed, as if the frown just now was an illusion.
Zhou Shuren walked out and saw the emperor's grandson seeing him, then getting off the prince and walking towards him step by step.
