Chapter 1795 Touching Porcelain
Changzhi became interested, and quietly eavesdropped while drinking tea. After the flattery from the next door was over, Li Xiucai lowered his voice and said, "Your Excellency also tested me."
Then there was another burst of exclamation, now who doesn't know the background of the chief examiner, it really caught Mr. Zhou's eyes and the future can be expected.
Changzhi, "..."
Ding Jue hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip to suppress his shock, he really dared to say anything!
Li Xiucai said again: "I still remember the question posed by your lord. It is also fate that we live together. How about I tell everyone to discuss it together?"
The smile on the corner of Changzhi's mouth disappeared, especially after someone secretly gave Li Xiucai a purse.
When Li Xiucai said the topic, Ding Jue's eyes widened, looking at the adults with astonishment.
Changzhi wrote on the table with his fingertips, Ding Jue saw the words and stood up and went out.
There are not many people paying attention to this corner, but Changzhi knows that some people will know about the topic tomorrow, but it will not spread widely.
At this time, Li Xiucai said again: "Aren't you wondering why I saw Mr. Zhou?"
"Why?"
Li Xiucai said proudly: "My lord likes spices, and my family happens to have good spices."
When Ding Jue heard this when he came back, he was filled with anger, especially after seeing someone's knowing eyes.
When Li Xiucai and the others left, Chang Zhi settled the money and took Ding Jue out of the inn, and instead of going back in a hurry, he went shopping with the crowd.
Ding Jue lowered his voice, "My lord, this is a missed question."
Chang Zhi sneered, "Some people don't want to be scapegoats. They just want to confuse the water in the pool. They even don't hesitate to involve themselves in it for their own lives."
Ding Jue is not worried about the adults, he is aware of the arrangements of the adults, "I have already sent someone to watch Li Xiucai."
Changzhi had guesses as to who wrote it, anyway, it wasn't Shi Zhifu and others. He was like a plague god in the eyes of Shi Zhifu and others. How could they dare to involve him, not to mention that the more they knew him, the more afraid they became.
Ding Jue said again: "My lord is still wise."
Changzhi looked at the sky, there were dark clouds today, ah, he will definitely return Chuanzhou Qingming.
The next day, in the morning court, Ming Teng appeared in the morning court, while Lord Rong An had disappeared for a long time, and he appeared in the court hall today, the well-informed knew everything in his heart.
The emperor and the prince turned to court with smiles on their faces. The emperor smiled and said: "The Marquis of Rong An guarded the Huangzhuang. The Huangzhuang has been cultivating grain for many years. I will not mention how much manpower and material resources have been invested in it. I am happy that the years of hard work will eventually pay off. Rong An Hou stepped forward."
Ming Teng farmed with the farmers in Huangzhuang, and often went to inspect the fields. His skin was much darker, and he was already tall. Standing out in front of him gave people a sense of oppression.
Ming Teng took out the booklet and handed it over, "Your Majesty, this is the data of the Huangzhuang Experimental Field. It has been compared with the data of last year. The grain variety is stable and can be promoted."
The data on the brochure is very detailed. Huangzhuang has invested a lot of manpower in order to optimize the grain, and the more detailed the manpower is, the more detailed the data will be.
The emperor looked at it and handed it to the prince, "Okay, cultivate grain seeds to benefit the people, it would be great if the father is still alive."
The ministers said: "The emperor mourns."
The emperor didn't want to take the credit of his dead father, "After the autumn harvest, I will announce it to the world. This is the blessing that my father left for the people."
Zhou Shuren said, the emperor really thinks about the emperor, not a lie.
Of course, the emperor did not take advantage of such a great achievement, and no one would say that the emperor is filial.
No matter if it is a commoner or an official, who would not want to follow a wise and principled monarch? Although the emperor did not get merit, he earned a good reputation for himself. The better the emperor's reputation, the higher the prestige of the imperial power.
The emperor is really happy, today there is no unsightly looking for trouble, someone hid the prepared book.
The emperor said again: "The Marquis of Rong An has made great contributions to protecting the Huangzhuang, and I will reward you according to your merits."
Ming Teng did not put off pretentiously, the emperor asked him to go to Huangzhuang just to give him credit, "I thank the emperor for his kindness, long live my emperor."
Zhou Shuren felt envious eyes, hey, what's the use of envy, Ming Teng has adopted him.
Zhouhou Mansion, Zhulan asked the boss, "Have the new guard's family been arranged?"
Boss Zhou has been busy with this for the past few days.
"It has been arranged. My son listened to you and opened a private school to teach the children to read."
Zhulan nodded in satisfaction, "Now all discerning people can read a few words, and in the future, only those who can read and understand will be able to live better."
Boss Zhou was the most touched, who told him to go to Zhuangzi often, "My son often goes to the villages near Zhuangzi, and now there are more and more people in the village sending children to study. Before asking a child if he could read, he would shake his head if he answered his son. Now ask Lots of nodding."
Zhulan was very happy, "Very good."
Old Zhou said: "Mother, I'm worried about my fourth brother."
The fourth brother wrote a letter about the arrangements for the guards' family members. He didn't think much about it at the time. After seeing these family members recently, he realized that the new batch of guards are all masters. It can be seen that there are many dangers around the fourth brother.
Zhulan was also counting the days, "Autumn is about to begin, I hope everything goes well."
Boss Zhou was not at ease. He couldn't say that he fully understood his younger brothers. He could understand their tempers to a certain extent. The fourth younger brother would either ignore everything or make troubles. He was really afraid.
After talking for a while, Boss Zhou realized something was wrong, "Mother, the second brother is taking a rest today, should he come too?"
Normally, the second brother, Xiu Mu, would come to chat with his mother before going to work on other things. He has been sitting for a while, why hasn't the second brother come?
Zhulan really knew, "During breakfast, your second younger brother sent a girl over. It's rare for him to take a rest so he goes out with Mrs. Zhao for a walk."
Boss Zhou muttered, "The relationship between them is really good."
Zhulan, "You have a good relationship with Mrs. Li."
Zhou Laodao: "We are noisy, and the second brother and the second younger sibling have never blushed much."
This is what he admires the most.
Zhulan smiled, "You guys are more lively."
Boss Zhou thought about it too, "Mom, I'm going to get busy first."
Seeing that the autumn harvest is coming again, he has too many things to do.
Zhulan waited for the eldest son to leave, feeling in her heart, a woman is happily married and does not look old, and the daughters-in-law in the family do not look haggard at all, because the Zhou family does not allow concubines, the reputation of the daughter-in-law as a shrew does not need to worry, and going out to the banquet will only be envied portion.
In the afternoon, Changyi and his wife came back. Changyi changed his clothes and came to the main courtyard. Zhulan was looking through the roster.
Zhulan asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Changyi nodded, "Mother, guess who my son met today?"
Zhulan really couldn't figure it out, so she asked tentatively, "Second Prince?"
Chang Yi shook his head with a smile, "No, I saw Earl Zheng today."
"Zheng Hong, where did you see him?"
Changyi had a strange expression, "Mother, when I saw the Earl, he was wearing a commoner clothes and touching porcelain."
Zhulan, "Huh?"
Changyi continued, "The one who touches porcelain is a scholar. My son thought he had misread it, so he took a closer look before confirming that he was right."
Zhulan came to her senses, "Touching porcelain on purpose to test your character?"
However, Zheng Hong really worked hard to choose a son-in-law for his daughter.
