Chapter 1840 Becoming a Father

In Zhouhou Mansion, Zhulan played chess with the emperor's eldest grandson. That's right, she played chess with a baby at an early age, and she played chess evenly, which made her lose face.

Zhulan held the chess pieces to make the move, after all age was the advantage, Zhulan said with a relaxed tone, "I won."

The grandson of the emperor put down the chess pieces in his hand, "I have been taught today, thank you Madam for your advice."

Zhulan saw that the fat baby was so rare, she was indeed as lovable as Shuren said, "I have always heard that the eldest grandson is smart, and today I have gained more knowledge."

The emperor's eldest grandson raised his chin. He has played chess with the emperor's grandfather since he was a child, "The emperor's grandfather taught him well."

But Zhulan knew that the eldest grandson Zaohui, don't look at people with a lot of ideas, seeing Qingxue bring in the fruit, she smiled and said, "How about some fruits for the eldest grandson?"

The most indispensable fruit in the capital is the Zhouhou Mansion.

The grandson of the emperor likes to eat fruit, "Then I will not be polite."

The fruit was not cut open. Although he knew that the Hou Mansion was safe, the father-in-law who took care of the eldest grandson would still test it before cutting some for the eldest grandson to eat. He would not be too worried that the eldest grandson would feel uncomfortable due to his young age.

Zhulan ate a few mouthfuls and looked at the newspaper, which was full of reports on the reform of the imperial examination.

The little guy tilted his head, "Madam also likes to read newspapers?"

"yes.."

The little guy said: "The emperor's grandfather and father also like it, but they like to read the people's livelihood behind the newspaper the most. The emperor's grandfather said that a monarch is a good monarch if he has people in his heart."

Zhulan was surprised that the emperor taught the eldest grandson how to be a king, and then she was happy, which meant that the prince would succeed to the throne smoothly.

In the past two years, the three princes have been honest, and the other princes have seen it. The Wang family has become quieter, and the princes with the blood of the Wang family have also alienated a little bit from the Wang family.

Concubine Zhang is raising Wang Zhaoyi's second son. There is no barrier between mother and child, and the seventh prince is the youngest and has no chance.

And the sixth prince's mother, Zhang Meiren, came from a low family background. First, she doesn't have the support of her mother's family, and second, she is not favored.

Except for the second prince who is still not reconciled, the other princes have lost hope.

Zhulan thought that Shuren became the eldest grandson's master, and the second prince was hit the hardest. Isn't this not the emperor's attitude to the prince's succession to the throne!

The emperor's eldest grandson went to Zhouhou's mansion as a guest, and the news spread very quickly. Not to mention the household department where Zhou Shuren was, but there were many discussions in other departments.

In the Ministry of Rites, Changyi also gained a lot of limelight due to the reform of the imperial examinations. In the Ministry of Rites, who has learned the most foreign studies, Changyi said that he was second and no one said that he was the first.

Changyi's years of research and study are not in vain. The elementary books have just been promoted nationwide, and he has almost become a master!

This left the Ministry of Rites dumbfounded for a long time, because the Ministry of Rites also had to learn new knowledge during the reform of the imperial examinations, so Changyi was taken out and couldn't keep a low profile.

Then Changyi even felt that he could give it a try after the imperial examinations were reformed a few more times, and his self-confidence suddenly burst!

Changyi gave extra lessons to his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites, and he was respected. This time, it was not because of his background, Changyi won the respect with his strength.

It's just that today's colleagues looked at him with sour eyes, and after inquiring, they found out that the emperor's eldest grandson is a guest at home!

Facing the temptation, Changyi said, "I don't know, I don't know, I haven't been home for many days."

Although he didn't write the questions, he doesn't have to live in the examination room, but he can't go home during the imperial examination!

In the household department, Zhou Shuren chatted with Zhang Jinghong, "Qiu Yan is about to retire, and he recommended you as the servant."

Zhang Jinghong couldn't react, "Me? I thought I was."

Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "Your political achievements over the years can be seen from above."

Zhang Jinghong really thought that he would work in his current position until death. Since his son got engaged successfully and there was no response from the authorities, he was already satisfied. Now tell him there is still such a good thing?

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that now the world is peaceful and prosperous. Because of the good breed and the national policy of these years, the imperial power has reached its peak. What the people want is simple, enough to eat and clothe themselves. Even the prince of the previous dynasty is so crazy. He wants to overthrow everything now.

Therefore, in the emperor's heart, Zhang Jinghong's background as a descendant of the previous dynasty is gone, and Zhang Jinghong is indeed honest, and the emperor is willing to give him a chance.

Zhang Jinghong was not stupid, he hurriedly said: "I will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death."

Qiu Yan had a good relationship with him, he knew that Qiu Yan was a cautious person, and he would not take the risk of recommending him, obviously it was ordered by the emperor.

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Do well in the future."

Zhang Jinghong asked tentatively, "How about you, my lord?"

He had already sensed that the adults were about to leave Hubu.

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "Look at my beard is all white, I naturally have my place."

The Household Department has been thoroughly reformed in his hands, and there will be no deviation without him in charge of the Household Department. His current thoughts are all on the emperor's eldest grandson, because the emperor's eldest grandson is the future of the Zhang Dynasty and the hope of national reform.

And it's time for him to rest, he and his wife have done enough, the seeds that should be planted have been planted, and they also want to live a more relaxed life.

In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren left the household department early to go home, and unexpectedly saw that the emperor's eldest grandson was still there, "Is your highness waiting for the old minister?"

The eldest grandson of the emperor nodded, "Yes."

Zhou Shuren went to change his official uniform first and came out, "Did Your Highness enjoy playing today?"

The eldest grandson of the emperor nodded, "Happy, the scenery of the Hou's Mansion is very beautiful, and the Hou's Mansion is very lively."

Zhou Shuren smiled, "How about the old minister take His Highness to the study in the front yard?"

"Okay, Grandpa Huang said that many people wanted to steal the study in the Zhouhou Mansion."

Zhou Shuren hehe, the biggest thief is the emperor, the emperor copied all the papers in the study, and now most of the title books sold on the market come from his study.

Fortunately, the emperor gave the money, and wrote the names of Changzhi and the others on the title book.

Thinking of books, the corners of Zhou Shuren's mouth turned upwards, and the books Mingrui edited for the boys' college were also printed. Mingrui's future lies in education, so he doesn't need to worry about this child's future.

When he arrived at the study in the front yard, the eldest grandson looked at the bookshelf, "Wow, there are so many books."

Zhou Shuren picked up the emperor's eldest grandson and walked to the third bookshelf, "These were awarded to the old minister by His Highness's great-grandfather. The old minister was dumbfounded when he received the reward. They are all copied books and there is not a single original."

It's too stingy, the emperor still didn't give him a dream for the third anniversary, and he didn't know whether he gave the emperor a dream.

The eldest grandson of the emperor was silent, thought for a while and said: "I will give master the truth in the future!"

Zhou Shuren, "..."

He didn't dare to take things from the eldest grandson of the emperor, he would have to pay double for what he got!

When the Hanlin Academy was under the yamen, Changzhong came out a little late today, talking with his fourth brother as he walked out, when he went out, he saw the young servant's face full of joy.

Changzhong raised his eyebrows, "Look at your happy appearance, what kind of happy event is this?"

The boy grinned, "Big happy event, great happy event, son, you are going to be a father."

Changzhong reacted for a while and turned his head, "Brother, I heard right!"

Changzhi was also happy for his younger brother. The rumors about his younger brother's heir were self-defeating, "You heard me right, you are going to be a father."

Changzhong laughed, "Brother, I'll pick Xinyi home."

Chang Zhi said: "I guess the siblings have already gone home first."

The boy nodded in confirmation, Chang Zhong grinned, "Brother, let's go home quickly."
