Zhou Shuren's eyes changed. Should we say that a minister who can remain neutral is a true fox with deep Taoism? I saw his expression change yesterday. I thought so much in one night, "Then what?"
Lord Wang was upset. “Lord Zhou, you should understand what I mean.”
They are all foxes that have turned into spirits. Don't pretend to be domestic cats. He doesn't believe it. Lord Zhou doesn't know. Yesterday, he clearly saw Lord Zhou's face change. Otherwise, he wouldn't think too much about it!
Zhou Shuren blinked, "Lord Wang."
Wang Ju's heart was beating violently. He felt that he had guessed the truth. "Master Zhou."
Zhou Shuren tapped Wang Ju's forehead with his fingertips and pushed back with all his strength, "Lord Wang must not have rinsed his mouth this morning. You are a bit too angry. Lord Wang, we have no grudges against each other, so you can't retaliate against me like this!"
Wang Ju's heart almost stopped beating. He was ready to hear the secret, and you told me this. His voice became sharp, "Master Zhou."
Zhou Shuren stood up and said, "Master Wang, I didn't hear a single word you said today. But I really like your personality and your ability to control your curiosity. I want to learn from you."
Wang Ju's excited heart calmed down. He looked at Lord Zhou carefully and suddenly laughed. His composure was still not enough. Could he understand that Lord Zhou had guessed something long ago? He could not compare with Lord Zhou. Look at Lord Zhou's composure.
Zhou Shuren opened the door and said, "If you have time, please go to the city gates and see how the newly implemented registration process is going."
Wang Ju was silent. He was not idle at all. He also had to keep an eye on the construction of the sewers under the north city. He laughed dryly and said, "Sir, I'm busy first."
Zhou Shuren suddenly said, "You and I have a good relationship. I will say one more word. I will be as steady as a mountain."
Wang Ju paused and walked out quickly. He was lying if he said he wasn't moved, otherwise he wouldn't have been so excited to come to Zhou Shuren to verify. Now it was like a basin of ice water poured down on him, chilling his heart. His guess that it was the capital was false, and he couldn't take it to the capital. Isn't this telling the emperor that he knows the secret? Then the question is, how much does he know? What does the emperor think of him
Wang Ju felt a chill on his back. The more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it is. He couldn't think about it anymore. It was better to be honest.
Zhou Shuren waited for Wang Ju to leave, squinting his eyes with a serious expression. After Wang Ju's reminder, he finally realized what he had overlooked. If he replaced the Fifth Prince's people, would it really not be enough for the Emperor to find out that the Fifth Prince was a fake
Zhou Shuren took the initiative to get involved. If he had big plans, the Fifth Prince would have to be killed. If he did that, he would definitely have a backup plan. It would not work to play a game with the Emperor without a backup plan.
After Zhou Shuren brought in one himself, he touched his palm with his fingertips. The emperor suddenly slapped himself in the face for testing Lord Yao. These were all problems. Zhou Shuren's mouth curled up. It was getting more and more interesting. However, no matter why this student who looked like the emperor appeared in Jinzhou, whether he was there before he came or arrived in Jinzhou after he came, he would not be a pawn.
Zhou Shuren smiled. He wanted to see how the story would develop. It was interesting, really interesting.
The day for announcing the results came in a blink of an eye. Zhulan knew the results early on. He Shu was this year's stipend student. Although he was not the youngest as in previous years, his age was still pretty good.
Zhu Lan called Wu Ning and Xue Han over, "You two should change your clothes and follow me to the palace to deliver the gifts."
Wu Ning blushed. Xue Han had teased her a lot on the way here. She lowered her head and said, "Aunt, let's go back and change clothes."
Zhu Lan looked at Wu Ning and said with a smile, "Change into something festive. Today is He Shu's big day."
Wu Ning twisted her handkerchief and said, "Hey."
Xue Han laughed, "Sister is shy."
Wu Ning stamped her feet and ran out quickly. Zhu Lan tapped her daughter's forehead and said, "Please count the teasing of Wu Ning!"
Xue Han agreed verbally, but she didn't take it to heart. She felt that Sister Wu Ning was the most lively now, and it made people happy just looking at her.
Zhulan brought gifts to the palace. There were not many people in the palace. After all, He Shu was not a son of the palace. Zhulan came in person because she wanted to get married.
Mrs. Xue looked at Wu Ning, who was wearing red. "Wu Ning always wore plain clothes before. It's rare for her to wear bright clothes. It's really eye-catching and stunning."
Wu Ning felt relieved after hearing the compliment. This dress of hers was newly made by the family and she had never worn it before. She was still very self-conscious and didn't like to show off.
Zhulan continued, "When I first selected the material, I thought it would suit this girl, and it turns out that it is indeed suitable after it is made."
Xue's eyes curved as she said to her daughter beside her, "Take your sisters and walk around the garden."
Wang Lei smiled and said, "Yes."
Zhulan and the other girls went out, and raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why is He Shu at home?"
Xue nodded, "I came back to change clothes."
Zhulan said, "This is a gift for He Shu. Please accept it for him."
Xue took a look and saw that the Zhou family was really generous, sending over a hundred taels of silver. The more the Zhou family valued He Shu, the happier she felt. "He Shu is already a scholar, and the master wants me to pick a date to propose marriage as soon as possible."
Zhulan put down the teacup and said, "Then I will be waiting for you at home."
Xue felt relieved after hearing this, "Okay."
Zhulan took the two girls back to the carriage. Xuehan couldn't help laughing. Wu Ning's face was red as if blood was dripping out. Zhulan asked, "What happened?"
Xue Han said cheerfully, "Mother, Mr. He stuttered when he saw Sister Wu Ning, Wu, Wu, Miss Wu."
After learning, Xue Han couldn't help laughing again.
Zhulan also laughed out loud. He Shu is a very steady person, but he lost his composure today!
Wu Ning covered her face with a fan. She didn't expect that Mr. He would be stunned when he looked at her. When he came back to his senses, he stuttered and his face was no less red than hers. Wu Ning couldn't help feeling happy. She was delighted and amazed Mr. He. She called him "idiot" in her heart with a big smile on her face.
Zhulan was fanning herself. He Shu was more optimistic than Wu Ning and had a positive attitude towards life. Wu Ning had met He Shu several times and Wu Ning had changed a lot.
After returning to the mansion, Wu Ning bowed and ran away. Xue Han laughed, "I think I teased my sister a little too much these days."
Zhulan, "You still know that. Speaking of which, I don't know how Rongchuan's grades are."
Xue Han was in a low mood, "I can only see Rong Chuan at the end of the year, and he's been gone for a year."
Zhulan, "Aren't you worried about Rongchuan's grades?"
Xue Han said confidently: "I believe Rong Chuan."
In Pingzhou, Rongchuan and the two elder brothers of the Wu family sent off the messenger who brought the good news. Wu Yong congratulated him, "Congratulations to brother Zhang for passing the imperial examination."
Rongchuan's excitement had subsided, "I would also like to congratulate my two brothers for passing the imperial examination."
Wu Ting's tense nerves finally relaxed. God knows how his elder brother watched them study. "Congratulations, congratulations."
