The Minister of Industry held the drawing and said, "Your Majesty, this is the drawing drawn as required after yesterday's inspection. Your Majesty, please take a look."
The emperor took the drawings and compared them with the previous drawings of the capital. After the planning, it was cleaner and his requirements were met. Looking at the spacious streets on the drawings, the emperor felt comfortable and handed the drawings to Lao San, "You can take a look too. "
Zhang Jingshi looked at the drawings carefully. He couldn't find any faults. "I think the drawings from the Ministry of Industry are very good."
The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren and said, "The Ministry of Industry will count the money needed for materials, and the Ministry of Households will hurry up and calculate the money."
The emperor paused and continued: "This money will be used for the people, third child, you must remember."
Zhang Jingshi had been greedy on errands before, but he didn't dare to do so this time. He still wanted to show off, "My son, I must make good use of every penny."
The emperor hummed, "You all should step aside."
Zhou Shuren looked at the suppressed and excited third prince from the corner of his eye, and sympathized with the princes. The emperor and the prince arranged their plans, and the emperor also squeezed several princes. In the past, the princes had a lot of troubles in running errands. This time they all want to express themselves, and they will definitely do it. Trying his best to think of the second prince, and then looking at the third prince walking with great strides, he sighed in his heart, you will always be your father!
Returning to the household department, Qiu Yan listened to Zhou Shuren's news in the court and sighed, "Why is Pinggang suddenly expanded?"
Zhou Shuren was not surprised, "Pinggang has frequent trade exchanges. In fact, it should have been expanded a long time ago. However, the Ministry of Household Affairs has never had any extra money. This time we set out from Pinggang to buy grain. The emperor knows the situation of Pinggang. Expansion is a matter of time."
Qiu Yan's scalp was numb, "Don't rush into things in the morning and evening."
Can't you wait for Mr. Xiao to come back
Zhou Shuren patted Qiu Yan on the shoulder, "It's time for someone from the Ministry of Works to arrive in a moment. Let's get ready too!"
Qiu Yan cheered up and said, "Okay."
In the Zhou Mansion, Zhulan welcomed County Lord Shen to come in. She really didn't expect that County Lord Shen would come with her child in her arms. Zhulan welcomed people into the inner room with a small kang, signaled the maid to spread a blanket, and then put the blanket on the side. He blocked the way and said, "County Lord, the child can be put on the small kang first."
Shen Yile smiled, "This child can't live without me. I cry when I leave. I really have no choice but to take him with me."
Zhulan didn't believe it. To put it bluntly, County Lord Shen was worried about the child staying in the Hou Mansion. Zhulan looked at the child placed on the small kang, looked at it carefully and said: "This child is carved from the same mold as Yao Shizi. He looks really good." picture."
County Lord Shen liked hearing this and said with a smile: "Not only do these children look alike, they also have similar temperaments. They neither cry nor make trouble. They are easy to take care of."
The county boss talked a lot about his son, and shared many interesting stories with Zhulan. Zhulan had to admit that the county boss Shen raised the child carefully, and it was all the county boss's credit that the little guy grew so strong.
Seeing his son sleeping in a daze, County Master Shen whispered, "I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have brought the child here."
Zhulan smiled and said, "The Zhou family has quite a few children. Now that the children are asleep, let's go out and talk?"
Shen Yile did not forget what she came to do, "Okay."
When they got to the outside, Shen Yile said: "The Lord of Anhe County has given birth to a baby boy and a girl. I came to the house today, so I should go and take a look."
Zhulan didn't think much about it. County Lord Shen and Su Xuan were both County Lords, so it was normal to see them, "Let's walk."
Shen Yile said hurriedly: "I can go there by myself."
Zhulan thought the same thing. With her seniority, County Lord Shen was not comfortable talking to Su Xuan, so she signaled Mrs. Song to take County Lord Shen to the Fourth Courtyard.
County Lord Shen left, taking only one maid with him, while the mother-in-law stayed behind to take care of the children.
Zhulan took the book to the courtyard, sat under the tree and read, waiting for County Master Shen to come back.
Su Xuan was surprised when County Lord Shen arrived at the Fourth Courtyard. She had no friendship with Shen Yile, and there was a big difference between the County Lord and the County Lord. She had a title but was an orphan. Apart from being of higher rank, not many people were afraid of or flattered her.
Shen Yile was different. Shen Houye's legitimate daughter, the queen watched her grow up. Shen Yile was a famous noble daughter in the capital. When she was in the capital, the two of them had no intersection.
Shen Yile said: "I came to see the child. It's rare to see twins. I happened to be visiting today, so I came over to take a look."
Su Xuan invited someone in and signaled her mother-in-law to take the child out, "Speaking of which, our children seem to be about the same age."
Shen Yile smiled, "Your children are older, but they are all the same age."
While they were talking, the child was taken out. The two little guys were very energetic. When they saw their mother, they yelled, as if they wanted to hug her.
Su Xuan's heart melted, and she reached out and hugged her daughter, "This is my daughter, Yuwen."
This was the first time Shen Yile saw twins. She looked at the two children and said, "It's really not like twins were born. You raised these two children well, as if they were singles born at full term."
Su Xuan was a little proud, "I raised her carefully."
Shen Yile really wanted to see the twins, but the twins were not the main thing. She wanted to see Zhou Yushuang even more. "It's getting late, so I should go back, so that my lady won't have to wait too long."
Su Xuan was confused and just sat down, "Ah, okay, I'll take you out."
After half an hour, Zhulan was lying on the rocking chair, feeling sleepy, before County Master Shen came back. After chatting for a few words, County Master Shen left.
When County Master Shen left, Mrs. Song said: "County Master Shen is not interested in drinking. County Master Shen is here for Miss Yushuang."
Zhulan, "How do you say this?"
Mrs. Song said: "County Lord Shen didn't sit in the fourth courtyard for long, and then the conversation turned to several ladies. He went to see several ladies studying, and the one who asked me the most was Miss Yushuang."
Zhulan recalled the grandchildren of Shenhou Mansion. There was indeed a young master who was similar in age to Yushuang. The legitimate sons of Shenhou Mansion were all born late. The two disciples of Shen Shizi were many years younger than the concubine. The second legitimate son was only thirteen this year. , it is the age when you want to get engaged.
However, there are many women in the back house of Shenhou Mansion, and there are also many disputes.
Zhulan still hopes that Yushuang's husband's family will be simpler in the future.
In the palace hall, the emperor asked Ning Xu, "If you don't hang around Rong Chuan and feel the joy of being a father, how can you find the time to enter the palace?"
Ning Xu smelled the sour smell, and the emperor was jealous. He didn't dare to be complacent, and he didn't forget the purpose of entering the palace today. "This kid Rong Chuan said he wanted to worship his mother, but I didn't know what to do, so I went to the palace to ask for instructions from the emperor."
The Queen is alive and well, and he doesn't dare to bring Rong Chuan to worship her. Even if it's a fake one, he's scared in his heart. Even if he finds a dead person to be his wife, he doesn't dare to let Rong Chuan recognize her as her mother!
The emperor was silent. He really ignored this question. This child Rong Chuan was filial and would definitely worship him.
Ning Xu looked at the emperor helplessly, "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do?"
He was out of ideas. He had managed to fool him last night.
The emperor thought deeply. He was already very uncomfortable when his son recognized a father. Should he recognize a mother again? Not to mention that he was uncomfortable, the queen was also depressed.
