Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren went to the Yamen. Master Wang came over and asked, "I heard that Shi Qing is back?"
Zhou Shuren looked at Wang Ju from the corner of his eye, "You pay a lot of attention to my family."
Wang Jue smiled dryly, "I care about you."
Zhou Shuren said, "It's good that I have my wife to care about me, so Master Wang, please stay two meters away from me."
Wang Ju was dumbfounded, "......"
No, he really didn’t mean anything else!
Lord Wang came in and looked at the stunned Wang Ju, "What's wrong with Lord Wang?"
Zhou Shuren sat down and said, "Who knows what happened to him? Do you have anything to do with me?"
Mr. Wang nodded, "We have already counted the collapsed houses in East City. This is the statistical data."
Zhou Shuren took it, put it down without looking at it, and said to Master Wang, "How is He Shu doing lately?"
Mr. Wang's heart turned and he replied, "Everything is fine. Last time he wrote a letter, he said that the wedding room had been decorated."
Zhou Shuren groaned, "He's pretty neat."
Mr. Wang smiled and said, "Is it okay to ask for help? Starting a family is a big deal. I will go back first if I don't have anything else to do."
"Um."
Mr. Wang left the room and his heart was still spinning. Mr. Zhou would not mention He Shu for no reason. He took two steps and paused. If he remembered correctly, He Shu's fiancée's brother was a county magistrate on the border. Mr. Zhou It’s him!
Zhou Shuren really didn't mean anything. He just had a lot of emotions after chatting with Shi Qing yesterday, so he thought of He Shu. He just felt that nothing happened to He Shu and that He Shu was also a member of the competition.
In the Zhou Mansion, Shi Qing said goodbye and left. Zhulan hadn’t been to the street for a long time. Most of the shops on the street were now open. Zhulan was going to buy some wedding supplies for Wu Zhu. Most of them had been bought. There are some odds and ends that need to be purchased.
Xuehan was not married and was not suitable to follow. Zhulan asked Dong. On the way to the store, Zhulan asked, "Is Yuyi sleeping?"
Mrs. Dong felt soft at the thought of her fat daughter, "This girl loves to eat and sleep. She goes to bed when she's full. She doesn't know who she's following."
Zhulan laughed, "I must have followed Chang Lian. Chang Lian was the least active person when he was a child."
Zhulan fell into memories. The children of the Zhou family were quite interesting when they were young.
Mrs. Dong smiled and said, "That's right. My husband also said that Yu Yi looks like me."
Zhulan asked, "Chang Lian went out early in the morning. What did he do?"
Mr. Dong knew, "The books my husband wanted came to the library. My husband went to guard them early in the morning. I heard that many people want them!"
Zhulan knew in her heart that Chang Lian was under greater pressure because of Shi Qing's return, so he wouldn't have gone to the library in such a hurry, "Please be more considerate of him recently, he is under a lot of pressure."
Mrs. Dong smiled and said, "Mom, I know."
Last night, her husband was mumbling in his dreams. He woke up in the middle of the night and didn't sleep for a long time. She knew in her heart that her eldest brother and second brother were in vain. Her husband had taken the responsibility of the Zhou family on her. As for Rong Chuan, it was his son-in-law whose surname was not Zhou.
Mrs. Dong's head ached a little when she thought about the son her mother had been talking about in her hometown. The third wife did need a son, but having a child was not something she could just do if she wanted to, and she was under a lot of pressure.
When the store arrived, Zhulan had a shopping list in her hand. She quickly selected what she needed to buy. Zhulan paused when she left the store.
Ms. Dong asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Zhulan looked at the teahouse opposite. She saw a bearded man who looked like a foreigner and followed a scholar into the teahouse. She took another look. The bearded man came out quickly and got on the carriage. Zhulan also got on the carriage. , "It's okay, let's go."
She looked at the man very fiercely and thought something was going to happen!
In front, Ning Xu was sitting in the carriage. He was curious about Lord Zhou that the prince was talking about, so when the emperor wanted to restore his identity, he went out for a walk. Not long after entering the city, he saw a person like The emperor's young man followed him to the teahouse.
Originally he wanted to go in and have a seat, but everyone in the teahouse was looking at him, and he realized that he had no choice but to come out.
In the capital, Zhang Jinghong looked at the visitor gloomily in his study, "You mean you didn't find the person?"
"Yes, when we sent someone to check, the person had already checked out and left."
Zhang Jinghong was so worried that he regretted it so much. When he first found out, he was too busy thinking about it. When his mind cleared up, he realized that no one was there, "Did you find out any news?"
"We only found out that he will take the imperial examination next year and his name is Shen Yang. No other information was found."
Zhang Jinghong squinted his eyes. Taking part in the imperial examination means that he will come back. This person cannot be kept. No matter who replaces him, as long as the real one is not found, he can pretend to be fake. But once the real one is found, what awaits him There was only death, and his hands couldn't help but tremble. He still remembered Ling Chi's torture.
Now that I think about it carefully, I am afraid that what my father said at that time was to him, "Send someone to check for me, check for me carefully."
Then he said hurriedly: "No, we can't check, just go down."
He can't move now. Too many people are staring at him. Once he makes a move, it will definitely attract attention. He can't be investigated. He can't be investigated. He can wait.
In Jinzhou, at the entrance of the library, Chang Lian and Meng Jie came out with books in their arms. A carriage stopped in front of them. Chang Lian looked up at the opened window and recognized the person at a glance. He was so full of beards that he almost forgot about them. It’s not easy. “It turns out it’s you.”
Ning Xu was also happy, "It's quite a fate. I didn't introduce you last time. My name is Ning San."
Chang Lian was speechless. Ning San was lying as soon as he heard it, but there was no need to hide it. He could find out about him just by asking in Jinzhou, "Zhou Changlian, this is Meng Jie."
Ning Xu's eyes flashed, "Zhou Changlian, I heard this name mentioned by the prince. The prince said that Zhou Shuren's son will go to Beijing for the scientific examination next year. It turns out to be him. "Thank you Mr. Zhou for your help last time. Since we meet each other by fate, Ning also I want to express my gratitude. Seeing that it’s almost noon, how about having a casual meal together?”
Chang Lian kept looking at the carriage and the entourage from the corner of his eye. The one he saw this time was different from the last time. Last time, he looked like a foreign merchant. The size of the carriage he saw this time was not suitable for ordinary people, at least not for merchants. Then look at the entourage. , he had a lot of contact with Prince Yao, and he looked like a general, "Okay."
Ning Xu smiled. Although the young man in front of him was mature, he was too young to compare with him. He wanted to find out what he was saying. He bent his eyes and wondered who was asking whom, "Get in the carriage!"
Chang Lian felt Meng Jie tug on his sleeve. Chang Lian moved his hand invisibly, indicating that it was okay, and then quickly got into the carriage without any hesitation.
Ning Xu saw it and said, "You are quite courageous."
Chang Lian sat down gracefully, and after Meng Jie also got on the carriage, he said, "It's not that I'm brave, but that you don't have any ill intentions."
And if they were really malicious, he and Meng Jie couldn't escape. The difference in strength was too big, so it was better to be generous.
