Chapter 1020 Waiting
"The Way of the Nongmen Mother-in-Law ()"
In the household department, Zhou Shuren was a little absent-minded. He had confidence in Changyi, but he was still thinking about it. Zhou Shuren thought to himself, going back eight or nine years ago, he must have never thought that he would be such a responsible father.
Today, the Ministry of Rites received the envoys. Changyi can only enter the palace tomorrow if he shows his value today. Zhou Shuren pressed his eyebrows, and he couldn't help but think about Changlian.
In Xuzhou, Chang Lian received Zhao Ji, both of whom were auspicious people. Although they didn't have much contact with each other, when they came to an unfamiliar place in Xuzhou, Zhao Ji approached him to form a group.
Chang Lian asked, "Have you found a place to live?"
Zhao Ji nodded, "I have found it, a small courtyard, not far from your residence."
Speaking of this, Zhao Ji was envious, he didn't have a father who was an official, and his family was not bad, but after buying a house in the capital, he didn't have much money, so he really couldn't afford a good house in Xuzhou, so he lived in an inn It took a few days to choose a house.
Upon hearing this, Chang Lian said, "That's good, we can take care of each other in the future."
Zhao Jilai just wanted to rely on him. When he was in the Imperial Academy, he also wanted to make friends with Zhou Changlian. Unfortunately, Zhou Changlian had no shortage of people around him, and because of Lu Liang's behavior, he stopped thinking and spent all his time on errands. Now he must make friends. In the future, if there is a disturbance, you can also get news, so as not to be pushed out as a scapegoat.
In the backyard, Mrs. Dong is envious of Zhao Ji's wife, because Zhao Ji's wife is really good at giving birth, and there are only three sons.
At noon, Chang Yi had already followed Master Wang back to the Ministry of Rites, and he was still dizzy when he was walking. He made no mistakes, and he didn’t make any mistakes today. More importantly, the officials brought by King Qi today were not as good as his translators, and they were still wrong. several places.
Wang Zuo was in a good mood, especially when Changyi gave him a face. He only brought Changyi, but he could translate three foreign languages. When he was happy, he patted Changyi on the shoulder vigorously, "My boy, I really give your father a face."
Changyi staggered when he was photographed, and almost fell to the ground. He was mainly thinking about something and didn't notice, "My lord, do you think I can enter the palace tomorrow?"
Wang Jue laughed, "I'm not confident anymore, don't worry, you will definitely be able to enter the palace tomorrow. Today's performance is good. If you stabilize tomorrow, things will basically be settled."
Changyi clenched his fists and grinned, "My lord, I invite you to dinner."
Wang Zuo has nothing important to do, "Okay, you are much more generous than your father."
Changyi paused, "My father is also supporting the family. Our whole family depends on my father. My father's hard work is not easy."
After Wang Jue heard this, he hehe, Zhou Shuren is a picky guy who doesn't support his family.
In the palace, the emperor laughed while listening to the report. If Zhou Changyi didn't take advantage of the opportunity he gave and lose face, he would lose face. "He is indeed a talent."
Prince, "This is also the opportunity that the emperor gave him, so that he can show his skills."
The emperor also thinks that he is Bole. He can tell by looking at Zhou Shuren. At the beginning, he was optimistic about Zhou Shuren, "The weather is getting warmer, and Rongyuan can continue to start construction. You send someone to the second man's house to say, no one will give it to you." I'm delaying progress."
The prince was clear in his heart, the father was looking for work for his younger brothers, and he should really keep them busy, so that they would have time to plot against him.
The crown prince is tired. Ever since his younger brothers got married, the schemes against him have never stopped. Regardless of how fierce these people are fighting now, they have never forgotten him. Cope with it as easily as it is now.
The next day, in the palace, Changyi did not follow Lord Wang this time, but stood beside the emperor. Changyi pinched himself hard to calm himself down, kept his face sullen, and concentrated all his attention on listening to the conversation.
The envoy also brought a translator. Chinese is difficult, so the translation is sometimes not in place. The Chinese is profound and profound, and the translation is wrong. The meaning is too different. This time the envoy is not a nearby country. The sea power is very strong. He was very arrogant when he was young, but he became honest after being shocked.
Changyi suffered from language difficulties, so he listened very carefully. The envoy wanted to stay in the capital,
I hope to achieve better communication, and I also want to seek some privileges for myself.
The emperor squinted his eyes, what for better mutual benefit development, just to get better news, the privilege is the proof, it is really allowed to go around, and the capital has not yet been fully understood.
There is no rush, today is only the first day, after the banquet, the envoy left the palace.
Changyi also followed the officials from the Ministry of Rites out of the palace.
In the evening, Changyi stayed by his father's side after eating, "Father, my son is doing well today, do you think there will be any news tomorrow?"
Zhou Shuren, "No."
Chang Yi was stunned, "My son also thinks it won't work, the envoys should be stationed is a big deal."
Zhou Shuren went home without eating and heard what Changyi said about today's content. Looking at Changyi, he was entangled in his heart. Should he help his son, "What you have to do now is to complete all the errands assigned to you."
Changyi regained his energy. He heard Mr. Wang say that he would have to argue with the envoy for a long time, "Well, my son will remember."
Zhou Shuren waited for his son to leave, then sent the mother-in-law and girl away, and then said in a low voice: "Do you think I want to speak to the emperor?"
Zhulan disagreed, "You've done enough, as long as the envoy's affairs are settled for Changyi's affairs, the decree will come down sooner or later."
Zhou Shuren thought about it too, and smiled to himself, "I really care about these sons, I didn't do this before."
Zhulan laughed, "So don't say that I worry about everything in the future, I think you are about the same."
Zhou Shuren curled his lips, "Actually, this kind of feeling is quite good."
The corners of Zhulan's mouth curled up. Zhou Shuren was so cold before, but now Zhou Shuren is full of life. It is an obligation for Zhou Shuren and his son to be away. Now it is a real father-son relationship.
The next day, after the early court, the emperor left many ministers behind, and the discussion was about the envoys.
Zhou Shuren stood obediently behind Lord Xiao, listening to the speeches of the great scholars, it has happened before that great powers and nations came to court, anyway, he was very excited.
Officials spoke a lot, some were happy, but of course some were worried. Those who are not of our own race are not credible, some support it and some oppose it.
Zhou Shuren listened, no one was paddling this time, and the opinions expressed were all valuable.
Li Zhao's voice was the loudest, "Since you come to our country, you must abide by our laws. Privileges are absolutely not allowed."
Waiting for everyone after speaking, if anyone dares to say something about the state of etiquette, he will have the posture of arguing with someone.
Li Zhao's words have won the support of many people, because there are some rules for foreigners first, and they have seen the benefits, so naturally they don't want the existence of privileges.
The emperor saw the quiet ones, especially Zhou Shuren, who seemed to be quiet as if he didn't exist. Out of habit, the emperor had expectations for Zhou Shuren.
