Chapter 1357 Apprenticeship
Two days later, the snow in the capital had stopped, and the sky was clear and the sun shining on the snow made people's eyes hurt.
The snow in the capital stopped, but it was still snowing in Zhangzhou City. The roads that had not been broken by the heavy snow were blocked again, and the food delivery team in Jinzhou was blocked halfway.
The prince opened the window with his cloak in his arms. He stood on the second floor of the inn and looked at the street. The street was full of people sweeping the snow. They were in charge of the door of their own house, but the horse-drawn carriage could not drive until the snow was transported out.
Zhou Shuren huddled cross-legged on the chair, completely wrapped himself in the cloak, "It's not windy outside, the prince wants to go for a walk?"
The prince has been inquiring about the situation in Zhoucheng for the past two days, but he has never left the inn. "Can you go with me, my lord?"
Since Zhou Shuren mentioned it, he promised the emperor to teach the prince, so naturally he wants to be together, "Yes."
The prince said to Yan Darren who was sitting on the other side: "Your Excellency can stay in the inn to rest."
Master Yan, "...Yes."
Sure enough, the prince's patience with him was almost reaching the limit, he took a deep breath, fortunately he woke up not too late.
Zhou Shuren stood up and stretched his legs and feet, put on his gloves, and took out two pancakes packed with meat floss, and finally said with his arms in his arms, "Let's go."
There was a smile in the prince's eyes, he and Mr. Zhou came out and found out that Mr. Zhou is a person who likes to show off his wife, and Mr. Zhou also lives exquisitely when he is out of the house.
In the past two days, the meat floss and fish floss from the Zhou Mansion are delicious. Yes, there are also pickles brought by Mr. Zhou. He is no stranger to the taste of pickles. He will eat them in the morning when he stays in the Qin Palace. Grandpa and grandma like this taste very much.
There were quite a few people in the inn, all of whom stayed in Zhangzhou and couldn't leave. The most conspicuous ones these days were Zhou Shuren and his party.
After leaving the inn, Zhou Shuren gathered the scarf around his neck, it was really cold outside.
The prince was worried, "In such a cold day, the shed outside is useless."
Zhou Shuren said: "I have already dug a snow cave to keep out the cold."
The prince frowned, "Sturdy adults can do better, but the elderly, women and children can't hold on."
Zhou Shuren walked very hard. He came to Zhangzhou for a few days. How can I put it? Not only the crown prince is dissatisfied with the prefect of Zhangzhou, but he is also very dissatisfied. His mobility was too slow, and he heard that many people froze to death in the past few days.
The prince poured snow into his mouth, closed his mouth, and kept walking with his head sullen.
The group of people didn't walk for long before they were covered in snow. They looked up and saw the snowflakes from the shops in front of them.
The prince stared at the snow all over the road, and his mouth tightened, "The snow in the capital will be cleared immediately. If I remember correctly, the snow has not been cleared since we entered the city."
Zhou Shuren said quietly: "Maybe they are all busy with disaster relief."
The prince has been listening to the news for the past few days, so he took a deep breath, "Then I want to take a good look at how the disaster relief is done, shall we go to the city gate?"
Zhou Shuren said, if it wasn't for the prince, he wouldn't go out in this weather, and he would go to the city gate, "Yeah."
In the capital, Zhulan seldom sees the eldest girl with obvious displeasure on her face, "What's the matter, she pulls her face when she enters the door."
Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief, "Mu Lan's step-sister has brought her child. Why do you think she has the face to come to the capital? Back then, she plotted against Mu Lan a lot."
Zhulan was surprised, "It's a snowy day."
Xuemei, "The road was blocked by heavy snow and I stayed for a while longer. The road was cleared and I just entered Beijing yesterday. Now I look like a good sister. I feel angry when I see it."
"She's at your house?"
Xuemei's complexion improved a bit, "Yesterday I was resting at the inn, today I came to visit and didn't stay for a while before Mu Fan picked him up, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get out."
Zhulan said that the girl is not rude, "If you don't want to see it, you won't see it. With your mother, I will support you. Don't be angry because you are not worth it."
Xuemei smiled, "Mom, how old am I?"
"No matter how old you are, it's my daughter, isn't it?"
The anger in Xuemei's heart completely disappeared.
"There are not many bad relatives in this family. Mu Lan's step-sister is really nothing, but her idea is a bit disgusting. You also know that Jiang Sheng has become famous in the past two years. I want to ask Jiang Sheng to be my master. There are quite a few people, in the final analysis, the benefits brought by Jiang Sheng make people miss."
Zhulan knew about this, someone brought a thick bow to pay homage to Jiang Sheng in private, but Jiang Sheng himself didn't understand it, so it was impossible for him to accept disciples.
If it weren't for the support of the Zhou family, the Yue family, Jiang Sheng would have offended many people because of his refusal. Now it seems that Mu Lan's step-sister has also made this idea.
As Jiang Sheng's reputation grew, he could take a shortcut to apprentice Jiang Sheng.
Zhu Lan, "Both Mu Lan and Mu Fan have their own ideas. Back then, Jiang Ming's eldest daughter was ruthless, and they no longer had any affection. It's just that the step-sister is not an elder, and she has no filial piety to suppress her. It has no effect on Mu Lan and Mu Fan. .”
Xuemei, "I know."
Zhulan smiled and said: "Since you're here, take a look at what I prepared for Miaomiao. This kid likes books, so I specially asked Yudie to write some books silently."
Of course, there are also the books she compiled, which are full of practical knowledge points.
Among the daughters of the grandchildren, Yuwen is the one who is most gifted in reading, and Jiang Miao is the one who is gifted and caring.
In the past few years, Zhulan seldom participated in banquets, and sometimes she would bring Jiang Miao with her when she went out. This child is too low-key. Many people only know that the Zhou family has a granddaughter. I really don’t see many people. Well, this is also a house girl. .
Zhulan took Jiang Miao out to make people recognize her face, so that someone would not bully her granddaughter.
In Zhangzhou, Zhou Shuren was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back when he walked to the gate of the city. Walking in the snow was already strenuous, and it was a windy day, even if the wind was not strong, walking against the wind was also strenuous. The feeling was so sour.
Zhou Shuren is an office nerd, the biggest amount of exercise every day is to enter the palace and walk to court, and the rest of the time is sitting, and there is a carriage to go home. Just now, the chest hurts and the legs are very uncomfortable.
In the end, I couldn't hold back and sat on the snowdrift, panting heavily while waving my hands, "I can't do it anymore, take a rest."
He has been able to grit his teeth and persevere until now is already very good. If he is not afraid of taking a break halfway and unwilling to move, he really can't persevere.
The prince is also tired, and after a while he has recovered a lot. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his body is in good shape. In addition, he recovered quickly at a young age, and the prince's breathing has already calmed down.
The prince was anxious to go outside the city to see the situation, "Then uncle rests first, I'll go and have a look first."
Zhou Shuren looked at the guards who followed, "Be cautious in your words and deeds and stay with me, and everyone else will follow you."
If something happened to the prince, no one can afford it. If the emperor hadn't cleaned up the hidden dangers, and the emperor had secretly cleaned it several times in the past few years, the emperor would not dare to let the prince out of Beijing.
