The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 1679 Decision

The emperor has the power to act decisively, Zhulan is speechless, it seems that Rong Enqing was in charge of the reconstruction of Zhuangzi just yesterday, and his appearance has changed drastically in just a few days.

When Zhulan went to Zhuangzi again, there were busy people everywhere around Zhuangzi.

Wang Wei saw grandma, "Grandma, father-in-law, you are here."

Zhulan smiled, "The reconstruction here is fast enough."

She came here when the construction started, and the foundation was finished in just a few days.

Wang Wei said: "The emperor gave a time limit for the reconstruction, sent more craftsmen and invited the surrounding people to make today's progress."

Zhulan has already seen the blueprints. The reconstruction is a big project. In the future, it will not only take in orphans, but also children who want to learn a skill. The emperor is very pragmatic. The reconstruction is not luxurious, and the blueprints are important and practical.

Wang Wei looked at the busy people in front of him, thought for a while and said, "It's dangerous for people to come and go in front of grandma, should I walk around with you?"

"good."

She was thinking about it, so she came here to take a look.

Wang Wei got the job of monitoring work, because no matter what the future of the Yue family is, it is Mrs. Zhou Hou who laid the foundation, and he is the default one among the two.

Zhulan looked around, but Zhuangzi didn't renovate together, but came one by one, so that thousands of children would not have a place to study. The house she used to save money and didn't ask for beauty is now demolished.

This time the imperial court gave money to rebuild, Zhulan felt a little sad when she thought about the ledger handed over.

Boss Zhou heard Mother sigh, "Mother, are you okay?"

Zhulan, "It's okay, I just don't care about anything."

Boss Zhou was also disappointed. He used to help his mother go to and from several Zhuangzi, but now he has nothing to do.

Wang Wei didn't say a word, he didn't know how to persuade, since the emperor decreed the reconstruction, too many people stared at this place, looking for benefits, fame and fortune.

Zhulan turned around and was about to go back to the city. She came to bring some food for Wang Wei, and left the food to signal Wang Wei not to give it away.

Wang Wei watched the carriage go away before turning back and continuing to work.

Wang Wei's colleagues said enviously: "It's different to have a good Yue family."

Wang Wei smiled, he indeed benefited a lot from the Yue family.

Back home, Zhulan just got off the carriage and saw Mingrui, "Why are you at home?"

Rong Enqing took the errand to fight for the future teacher and teacher, and Ming Rui also benefited, Ming Rui sorted out the books edited by the emperor, who asked Ming Rui to teach children for a long time, Ming Rui has experience, plus her It doesn't matter, no one has targeted Mingrui yet.

Mingrui, "Grandson came back to pick up the left notes."

Zhulan smiled, "Hurry up and get busy."

Mingrui nodded, "Yes."

Boss Zhou waited for his nephew to leave in the carriage before saying: "Now Rong Enqing is alone on business and has not joined the Ministry of Rites. Recently, someone asked his son about it."

Zhulan kept walking, "What did you say?"

Boss Zhou smiled foolishly, "I don't know what to ask."

Zhulan smiled, "Very good."

These people's guesses are normal, who told the emperor to only let Rong Enqing run errands without letting the Ministry of Rites intervene, it is impossible to separate them separately, at least it is not the time to separate them, the emperor just does not want to trouble so he did not let the Ministry of Rites take care of it.

The struggle in the Ministry of Rites was fierce, and the emperor was too lazy to watch the battle and did not want to affect efficiency.

Back in the main courtyard, Boss Zhou said, "Mother, my son is going back first."

"Um."

Boss Zhou looked at his mother worriedly, because he was afraid that the old lady would feel uncomfortable. Recently, he and his wife took turns guarding his mother. Seeing that his mother looked good, he left in peace.

In the Ministry of Rites, Changyi has become a favorite. Since he was separated from power, even if no one in Yinhou's mansion looked down on him, he was not affectionate to him.

It's good now, the house where he does business has never been broken.

He misses his future in-laws very much, even though they don't want to see him!

Changyi looked at the second prince, oh, and his attendant Mr. Ji, he doesn't have much emotion for Mr. Ji, this Mr. Ji is very good at being a follower, which is also a skill.

Chang Yi sighed, "Second prince, the lower officials don't know anything."

The second prince smiled, "I'm just here for tea."

Changyi was tired. He drank a lot of tea recently and didn't want to drink tea at all.

Ji Deming didn't show it on the face and was very jealous in his heart. He was born in the imperial examination, and Zhou Changyi had a good father's plan. Zhou Changyi didn't take the imperial examination but got his current official rank, and he might not be able to climb to Zhou Changyi's official rank in his entire life by himself. .

Ji Deming suppressed the jealousy in his heart and listened carefully to what the second prince said.

Changyi can be regarded as going through a lot of wind and waves, and no one has seen it. No matter how quickly Ji Deming concealed it, he still felt it. Anyway, he is not alone in being jealous of many people.

In the palace, Zhou Shuren played chess with the emperor, and the emperor asked, "Who do you think will be the first dean?"

Zhou Shuren said lightly, "The emperor has someone in mind."

Your Majesty, "It's really boring to chat with you."

"The minister resigned?"

The emperor snorted, "My original intention was to ask my father to be the first dean. The dean only needs to be named, but my father refused."

Zhou Shuren lowered his eyes, "Is the dean of the women's college only named?"

"You're always on point."

Zhou Shuren put down the chess pieces and looked up, "The Queen Mother has hinted at the wife of the minister, so naturally the minister must ask for his wife."

The emperor muttered, "Where is it a hint, it is clearly an explicit statement."

Zhou Shuren said: "So the dean of the women's college has real power?"

Your Majesty, "Well, the opportunities I give women to learn naturally need someone who understands to manage them. The old lady has always done a good job."

Zhou Shuren thought that his daughter-in-law would be happy to hear that, "Thank you, Prince."

The emperor continued to play chess, "This is what the old lady deserves."

He has never underestimated women. He recognizes Yang's ability. He sees the women's practice booklet much more clearly. This is a change, a change to women's status.

The emperor muttered, "I hope my decision is right."

Zhou Shuren was extremely proud. He influenced the emperor's thinking, "Your decision will be praised by future generations."

The emperor smiled, "Just don't leave a bad name."

Zhou Shuren said firmly, "No, you are a good emperor."

The emperor raised his brows and felt extremely comfortable, it was rare for Zhou Shuren to reply in such a serious manner.

Zhou Shuren finished playing a game of chess, but the emperor signaled to play another game. From the corner of his eye, he looked at the prince who was approving the memorial, tsk tsk, the emperor squeezed the prince a lot.

When Zhou Shuren left the palace, it was already dark, and it was still time to go down to the Yamen, so he asked sincerely, "Master Hou, go back to the mansion directly?"

"Um."

Zhou Shuren came home early today, signaled Jinyan to go back to rest, and walked to the main courtyard with a happy expression.

Zhulan heard footsteps, "Are you back?"

"Don't you ask me why I came back early?"

Zhulan, "Is the household department busy?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "I'll go home directly after leaving the palace."

Zhulan observed Shuren with a smile and said, "Is there any good news?"

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Help me get the clothes."

Zhulan saw that there were no clothes hanging on the shelf, turned around to get clothes from the closet, and helped to hang up the official clothes that had been taken off.

While changing clothes, Zhou Shuren told the news, "Are you happy with the letter from the emperor?"
