Chapter 1429 Advance
The latest website: Mingrui's return to Beijing was very low-key, and the Zhou family did not show it. The capital did not know the news of the prince's return to Beijing. Mingrui could not go out and enjoyed meticulous care at home.
Back home to relax physically and mentally, without being cautious and tense outside, it is rare for Mingrui to relax himself, he can lie down every day and never sit down, lying on the rocking chair, his mind is not idle, wondering how he will be his future brother-in-law.
In the palace, the prince doesn't have to go to the government hall, and he can't go to the harem to see his mother when he returns to the palace. He can only write his thoughts in his own palace every day.
The queen knew that her son was going back to the palace, so she didn't have to worry about her son, her spirits improved a lot, and she was able to go out for a walk even when the weather was nice.
The entire harem paid attention to the queen, and many people secretly cursed the queen's dead body and two lives. Seeing the queen walking around, I don't know how many veils were torn.
In a blink of an eye, King Qi returned to Beijing with his sons. Some of the seriously injured sons were lucky, some were lucky, some left the root cause of the disease, the imperial examination became a disaster, and the major families in the capital were lucky and some cried. .
The next day, Qiu Yan drank tea and said with emotion: "Master Wei's second son is just unlucky. He invited a doctor when he returned to Beijing yesterday. This child has hurt his lungs. I'm afraid the environment in Chunwei can't stand it. Can he participate in the competition?" The imperial examination depends on luck."
Zhou Shuren, "It's a pity."
Qiu Yan nodded, "This kid is very talented. When I saw Lord Wei early this morning, his eyes were blue."
A family cannot support itself, and every talented son-in-law is a treasure. Now that a treasure is lost, how can one not hate it.
Zhou Shuren thought in his heart that it is easy for people to have unfair resentment, especially when there is a big gap, if his grandson gets a reward, he must have enough hatred, let Wen Jia pull the hatred.
Originally, the capital thought that the Zhou family and the Shangguan family would get a reward, so they waited and waited, and finally confirmed that there was no reward after waiting for two days.
The old fox tasted it quickly, and watched the Wen family's good show with malicious intentions.
Mrs. Wen gritted his teeth, thinking that the Shangguan family and the Zhou family would share the attention, and it would be better to draw their attention, but it turned out that the Wen family was still hated.
In the past few days, the Wen family has been secretly making amends, some have taken it, and some have confiscated it. Today, members of the Wen family have been targeted.
In the early morning, Zhou Shuren watched the theater happily, and every morning when he saw Mrs. Wen with a sad face, he could eat an extra bowl of rice.
Li Zhao coughed, "It's fine, you watch the excitement for several days in a row,
Haven't you seen enough? "
Zhou Shuren, "I can't get enough of their dramas."
Li Zhao thought to the old man who held grudges, "Master Wen is looking at you!"
Zhou Shuren found out, and returned a big smile. The old man who smiled turned his head away, and he withdrew his smile in satisfaction. Anyway, the Wen family was not good, so he was happy.
Li Zhao lowered his voice, "I see that you are in a good mood, and the household department has enough money?"
Zhou Shuren looked coldly at Li Zhao for a moment. These people all wanted money, and if they wanted money, he lost a lot of hair in order to buy the money for medicinal materials. Except for the money that the treasury had planned to remove, the Ministry of Households could no longer afford much money. The pen's money is gone.
Li Zhao, "..."
Recently Zhou Shuren is not grand at all, he is very picky!
This morning is very serious. Last night, an urgent report came to Beijing. There was a change in the northeast border, and several states in the country were in trouble. The tribes in the northeast border felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Zhou Shuren frowned, because of the natural disaster, an inevitable war will be brought forward.
The court ended very late this morning, and after the court was over, the emperor left many ministers to continue discussions and prepare for the war.
Zhou Shuren was worried. Although the emperor had set aside money for war earlier, he still had to prepare some money for emergencies, money, money.
Zhou Shuren left the palace in a hurry, and the household department had to do a good job of logistics in a war, and logistics was very important.
In the harem, Aruna rubbed her belly, how she wished she was really pregnant, the truth is, since she entered the palace, the emperor has not touched her, and she also pretends to be in her palace every month.
The emperor is wary of her, so what can she do, she can only accept her fate honestly for the sake of the tribe.
The maid came in, "The princess of the Yiqi Department is here."
Aruna took her hands away from her stomach, "You talk about me."
"What does sister want to say?"
Aruna's complexion changed, and she quickly regained her composure, "Sister, don't you think you are too diligent in coming to my place?"
The princess of the Yiqi Department, "Who made my sister favored, my sister didn't see the emperor a few times when I entered the palace."
"Sister, that's wrong. My sister only sees the emperor twice a month, which means she is being favored. You will see the emperor at least three times a month, but you will see the emperor less. Black and white are not so reversed."
Princess Yiqibu didn't speak, but instead asked, "Sister is going to give birth soon."
Aruna lowered her head, "It's still early."
Princess Yiqibu, "We are both princesses of the grassland, my sister is really lucky."
Aruna thought in her heart, because she is honest, but the princess of Yiqi Department is not honest, she rubbed her belly, they are all the emperor's pawns, she can live well, but this one in front of her can't.
In the evening, Zhou Shuren didn't come back on time, and he dragged his tired body back home very late. Today, he has been sitting and feeling uncomfortable in his waist.
Zhulan rubbed her waist for help, "I asked the kitchen to make soup for you, will you drink it later?"
Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "I drank the soup at the household department, so I don't have to serve the soup from the kitchen."
"Isn't the money for the medicinal materials settled? Why are you still frowning?"
"There are changes in the Northeast, and the war will be brought forward."
The change in the Northeast is a test, and once the Northeast goes to war, there will be a full-scale war.
Zhulan paused, she thought for a while, "Because of the flood?"
"Well, this year's floods are serious, and the grain production in various states has been affected by the weather. The grassland and other tribes think this is a great opportunity, and they don't want to wait until autumn to give the court a chance to breathe a sigh of relief."
While your illness is killing you, the grassland tribes don't know that the emperor bought long-term food that can last for a long time. Although there are more disaster-stricken states this year, there is only a shortage of medicines, and there is no shortage of food in the disaster-stricken areas.
Zhulan thought of the reply from her elder brother and second brother. The elder brother and the second brother were unwilling to come to the capital. She knew that the elder brother and the second brother had noticed, but in order not to affect Wu Chun and Wu He, she would not leave unless it was absolutely necessary.
"I only hope that this war will lead to real peace."
Zhou Shuren has confidence in the imperial court. The emperor has been preparing for this war for too long. If it is not a natural disaster, the emperor's calculations can be said to be foolproof.
Zhulan worried: "Since there are changes in the Northeast, there will be spies in the disaster area to incite the people, and I don't know what's going on with Changlian."
Zhou Shuren, "At this time, it depends on the force. It is a great achievement to appease the people and find the spies. If it really makes the people make trouble, it is a big mistake."
Now is the critical moment. If the common people cannot be appeased, it will be trivial to settle accounts in the autumn harvest, and a lifetime of official career will be ruined.
Don't talk to the royal family, the royal family is ruthless to their own children, not to mention the courtiers, he has always been sober, he will never be confused by the attitude of the emperor, nor will he relax his vigilance because of the emperor's trust, let alone treat the prince Get so close that you forget who you are.
The most ruthless emperor's family, he always remembers.
Zhou Shuren was also worried about his son, and also about his daughter, "The emperor ordered King Qin to return to Beijing. I don't know if Xuehan and the child in her stomach can bear it after traveling all the way."
Zhulan was silent for a while, "Will King Qin follow to fight?"
