The next day, after the morning court, Zhou Shuren was stopped by his familiar little father-in-law, and he followed him very consciously. As for the jealous eyes of the few academicians behind him, he got used to it.
The little eunuch is doing well now, he is dressed warmly, and has grown a lot taller. The little eunuch lowered his voice, "The emperor is in a very good mood today."
He heard the emperor's laughter this morning. Although he didn't know there was any happy event, this news was enough.
Zhou Shuren was in a complicated mood. At the beginning, he just looked at the other party as a child. Of course, he didn't have such deep ancient concepts in his heart, so he didn't treat the little eunuch with color or contempt. The little eunuch would send him some news from time to time, "Thank you .”
The little father-in-law grinned, and he also led the other adults on the way, but no one said thank you to these low-level little father-in-laws. Their eyes can't deceive people.
In the government hall, the emperor was drinking hot tea, his brows were relaxed, and he was indeed in a good mood, "Shuren, come and sit down."
Zhou Shuren got up a little stiffly. He used to love Qing Aiqing, but now he called her name, and he felt inexplicably flustered.
Zhou Shuren was vigilant, but sat down obediently.
Eunuch Liu has already handed over hot tea, and Zhou Shuren took it with both hands. He was actually not very cold, so he stopped drinking after two sips, "The emperor asked me to come, what can I tell you?"
For the first time in so many years, the emperor was so light-hearted. The Qi family has become honest, the Feng family has collapsed, and the Chen family has gathered a lot of power. Finally, a few stones that have weighed on my heart for many years have been removed. "Isn't it the end of the year? There is nothing important in class, I haven't chatted with you for a long time, and today I will chat."
Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes wildly in his heart, did you forget that because you were jealous of him, you deliberately delayed your court these days?
Zhou Shuren smiled, "Indeed, I will be able to take a rest in a few days."
The emperor hummed and put down the teacup in his hand, "I heard that your second son is back?"
He was also extravagant, he gave away a lot of gemstones of various colors, and he kept a lot of them, and even brought back a lot of gold ornaments, which made him miss it very much.
Domestic merchants can indeed bring back a lot of wealth when they go out to do business, but they really never bring back so many good-quality gemstones at once.
Zhou Shuren sighed,
Then he looked distressed, "This kid in my family likes to buy more properties. I intended to go abroad to gain knowledge. He bought the land, not to mention the courageous Contractor Mountain. Then he was targeted by a group of local gangsters. There were also several clashes with locals."
Zhou Shuren explained to the emperor very carefully, not as simple as telling his wife, going abroad is dangerous, if the force is not enough, he will really be massacred, so he has to explain this clearly to the emperor.
The emperor listened very seriously, "The second kid in your family can't read well, but his brain is up to you, and he knows how to cooperate with the locals."
Zhou Shuren wanted to say that he really didn't follow him, but he educated him well the day after tomorrow, "This kid is very courageous. I saw the knife wound yesterday, and I couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning all night."
He did toss and turn and didn't fall asleep, but he wasn't worried. His son had come back, so he wouldn't worry about what had happened. What he thought about was how to fill in the frame that his son had worked so hard to avoid being picked up in the future. fruit.
The emperor said again: "Your second son brought back friends?"
"Yes." Tianhe Novel Network
Then Zhou Shuren introduced his son's friend Bahu. Zhou Shuren didn't hide the purpose of his visit, which was to investigate.
The emperor was silent. He only paid attention to Zhou Changlian for the sons of the Zhou family, and these days he paid attention to Zhou Changzhi next year, because next year will be the provincial examination, and he wants to see what the best children of the Zhou family can do.
He didn't expect that the two white bodies who hadn't paid attention to him all this time were actually capable. He stroked his beard, and there was nothing surprising about having a father like Zhou Shuren.
The Zhou family and Changyi didn't go there today, they stayed at home to talk with their mother. As for the guests they brought back, they are still resting. It's too cold outside and they need to get used to it for a few days.
Zhulan fell silent when she heard her son speak the languages of several countries, "I heard from the Xu family that you are very gifted in languages, now I believe you."
How high is this? It's a genius. Anyway, she suffered a lot when she was studying.
Changyi is still very proud, "Actually, my son knows that he has found some rules, and he will learn a lot if he finds a little bit."
Zhulan was very envious, it would be great if she had such a high talent for language, "It's amazing."
Changyi seldom saw his mother being shocked, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened. It was better to be at home, even if he built a good house abroad, it was still not home.
Zhulan calmed down, "Now the residence permit is implemented for foreigners. Although some foreigners have left, there are still many. I heard that many people are learning foreign languages."
At first, it was for the convenience of businessmen to communicate. Later, with their daily contacts, some officials who were in contact with maritime trade would learn it, and then those with foresight would ask their children to learn it.
Because everyone knows that the Imperial Navy was not only built, but also invested a lot of money. This is to firmly develop the maritime trade. The better the development, the more countries it contacts, the diplomacy is very important, and the language communication is very important.
In the palace, the emperor waited for Zhou Shuren's voice to finish, "You mean, your son can speak three foreign languages? If I remember correctly, he has only been out for a year."
Zhou Shuren said: "I dare not lie to the emperor, my son is very talented in languages, these three languages are the most widely used."
The emperor thought about it. In the past few years, he has also met envoys from some countries. The language is really tricky. The Chinese of the other party needs to be added, and he has to guess. The translators on his side are all officials from the Sea Affairs Department. Proficiency is proficiency, but there are very few people who can do more than one. This is talent.
Zhou Shuren saw that the emperor was thinking and stopped talking, and if the emperor didn't keep him today, he would also try to let the prince know how talented Changyi is in language.
When Changyi was studying with the Xu family, he knew that he was talented and learned quickly, so he thought about making use of this aspect. Unexpectedly, Changyi gave him a big surprise. The kid also learned a few subjects in a short period of time, although it is not too profound, it is enough.
The abacus in Zhou Shuren's heart is ringing, and now there are more things to calculate.
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "I have seen this foreign envoy, but our minister has never been out."
Zhou Shuren thought for a while and said, "I don't think it's urgent for a while. It will be better to go on a mission after the ship's technology and gunpowder weapons are improved."
Deterrence by force, big fists are the last word. No matter how much you say, it is nonsense and a waste of time. When advanced ships and gunpowder weapons are unveiled, the navy will follow. The mission will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, and it will also deter some countries that are ready to move.
