Eunuch Liu would not introduce the second prince, but he thought in his heart that the emperor had guessed right that the first person to meet would be the second prince. Eunuch Liu lowered his head even more. This was the terrifying thing about the emperor. The emperor knew that several princes would definitely meet Lord Zhou, so he guessed who would meet Lord Zhou first.
After walking a few steps, Eunuch Liu stopped and quickly glanced at the Fourth Prince. His heart was thumping. The Emperor was right again, "The Fourth Prince."
The fourth prince smiled and said, "Eunuch Liu, I have always heard about Lord Zhou and was very curious, so I waited for you. I am sorry to have delayed you."
Eunuch Liu lowered his head. Several princes, should he say that the emperor is powerful? So the princes are all very powerful. He dare not look at the fourth prince. The fourth prince likes to laugh, that is not to let people look into his eyes. Of course, these are all said by the emperor.
So the emperor is still the most powerful.
Zhou Shuren also greeted him with a smile, "Fourth Prince."
The fourth prince smiled even more, "It really lives up to its reputation."
Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes in his heart. From the first glance, he could see that the Fourth Prince was even more scheming. Why did he smile when he was cheating people? Because he would squint his eyes so others couldn't see through his thoughts. The Fourth Prince had the same ideas as him.
Zhou Shuren stopped smiling, opened his eyes, and looked directly at the Fourth Prince, "I don't deserve it."
The fourth prince moved his hand behind his back, "Lord Zhou is fine."
He dared to look into his eyes, but I couldn't see anything from his eyes. It can be said that he is worthy of being the emperor's confidant.
Eunuch Liu looked at Lord Zhou from the corner of his eye, and in his heart he showed more respect for Lord Zhou. "Fourth Prince, we will go ahead."
The fourth prince: "Okay."
Zhou Shuren followed behind Eunuch Liu and could still feel the Fourth Prince looking at him. He curled his lips inwardly. He was in a trap and if he didn't show his sword now, he would be tricked. Sorry, if he wanted to see something from his eyes, he would have to be more experienced than him.
The fourth prince's training was not yet up to par, and the fact that he did not dare to miss anything was the best proof of this.
Zhou Shuren thought he would see the third prince again, but he didn't. It seemed that they were not coming in a group. What a pity. He was quite curious about the third prince.
Eunuch Liu felt sweat on his back as he walked. The emperor was right. Everyone envied him for being the emperor's close minister. Bah, he was the one who was most nervous. Sometimes, he wished he could become deaf and mute.
When they arrived at the Zheng Palace, Eunuch Liu said, "Please wait a moment, my lord."
"yes."
Zhou Shuren played with the account book in his hand with a smile on his face. He was quite excited to meet the emperor again.
When Eunuch Liu came out, he saw the smile on Lord Zhou's face. He endured the twitching of his mouth. He really didn't know what Lord Zhou was happy about. "Sir, please come in."
You know, he has seen too many ministers summoned by the emperor who looked as depressed as if their father had died.
Zhou Shuren thanked Eunuch Liu and walked into the hall without looking around. Seeing that the emperor had pain in his knees and had to kneel again, his good mood was gone. "The prefect of Jinzhou pays respect to the emperor. Long live the emperor."
The Emperor: "... ... Lord Zhou, excuse me."
The prince looked at the tiles on the floor. He felt his father's tone pause. However, if he were in his father's shoes, he would have paused as well. He was also curious about what his father was so happy about, Lord Zhou!
When Zhou Shuren knelt down, he saw the boots beside him. The prince was also there. Interesting.
Zhou Shuren presented the account book, "This is the first volume of the account book after the Marine Affairs Bureau checked it."
The emperor narrowed his eyes. He knew what was written in it without even thinking. He had a copy in his hand. He knew from looking at the account book that it was for outsiders to see, so he summoned Zhou Shuren to the capital. Sure enough, there was a surprise. "Where is the next volume?"
Zhou Shuren said: "In my mind."
The emperor curled his lips, it was indeed the safest place, "Eunuch Liu, get some paper and pen."
Eunuch Liu: "Yes."
Soon, paper and pen were brought over, and the emperor pointed to the table outside and said, "My dear minister, please write here."
Zhou Shuren, "As you wish."
The emperor did not move, and was too lazy to look through the account book while drinking tea. There were not many problems with this account book, and many of them were trivial. However, the emperor curled his lips. He and Zhou Shuren had a tacit understanding. He really did not want to move too many people. The above could not be said to be just right, but it was roughly correct.
If Zhou Shuren knew what the emperor was thinking, he would definitely laugh. He made a lot of guesses, but he didn't dare to write them down because if he guessed them all right, it would be fatal.
The prince glanced at his father and could feel that his father was in a good mood.
Time passed little by little, and the emperor frowned. It has been quarter of an hour and he hasn't finished writing yet. Shouldn't he focus on the key points
After waiting for a while, the emperor stood up and walked over. He squinted his eyes when he saw what was written, and then he stood there motionless.
The prince was very curious, but he felt that he was the most miserable, so he just stood there as if he was being punished.
After more than a quarter of an hour, Zhou Shuren finally put down his pen. He was so tired, but he also felt that his memory was really good.
The emperor picked up the long account book and said, "... ...Your memory is really good."
Zhou Shuren, "I don't deserve the emperor's praise."
But he thought to himself, after three years of college entrance examination, memorizing these things is really nothing. Back then, he would only memorize more than this. In addition, he has his own way of memorizing, so remembering these numbers is not difficult.
But the emperor felt that Lord Zhou was truly a treasure.
The prince was itching to find out, but unfortunately, without his father's words, he dared not move. He still felt like he was being punished and standing. He really wanted to see what Lord Zhou had written, but he sighed in his heart. It was useless to want to know, as his father would not let him see it.
The fact that he can stay and meet Lord Zhou with my father today is a sign of my father's trust in him.
