Chapter 521 It's Time to Get Married
Zhou Shuren hugged Zhulan, and said in a very small voice next to Zhulan's ear: "Last year, most of the registration list in the exiled land was destroyed by a fire, and the emperor investigated the people who died this year. He is a man of good health, between the ages of twenty and thirty, the emperor was furious and asked me to investigate the suspicious person."
Zhulan thought to herself that the repeat offenders in this dynasty did not carry on the stigma of the previous dynasty, and it is estimated that there will be after this time, "No one in the land of exile will be spared this time."
Zhou Shuren hummed, and according to his understanding of the emperor, the big purge is certain, "But it's not now, if the timing is wrong, it will scare the snake away."
Zhulan said faintly: "I guess the snake is almost startled."
No matter how hidden the investigation is, it will still leave clues.
Zhou Shuren was silent, it was true, the further the investigation, the more difficult it was to investigate. He found merchants, and some merchants who were clearly out of reach, but had private contacts. He thought that if he continued to investigate, the other party would be surprised.
Zhou Shuren closed his eyes. The intertwined power of more than ten years is too great. This time he found a line. If he doesn't take it all at once, it will be difficult to catch the tail.
In the imperial palace, the prince did not go back, but still helped his father to handle government affairs. Thinking of this morning, the prince's heart ached. It was too terrifying. This news seemed to release the beast in his father's heart. Want to slip away!
The emperor reclined and closed his eyes to meditate. The government hall was very quiet, but his heart was not at peace. What annoyed him was himself. It took him more than ten years to discover such a big flaw. There were quite a few people in these years. The training was in the hands of a powerful force, and the emperor's anger went straight to the top of his head.
Eunuch Liu shrank at the door, trying to reduce the sense of presence as much as possible. He really wanted to retire and retire. He was really old and couldn't stand it anymore.
The emperor opened his eyes and looked at the prince who lowered his head and looked at the book seriously, feeling a little better, and then thinking of Zhou Shuren, he felt a little better again, good general, if Zhou Shuren wasn't there this time, he wouldn't have been able to find out.
The emperor closed his eyes again, "It's time for the old five to arrive at Jinzhou City!"
The prince has been paying attention to his father, and said: "Yes, it will arrive in the day after tomorrow."
For this younger brother, the prince has a very complicated heart. He is not a cold-blooded person. He admits that he is under his wings, and he will definitely protect him, but what the fifth brother did was too disappointing for him. He treats him like a brother.
There are too many burdens on him, wife, mother, son, he can't give up other responsibilities for a younger brother who regards himself as an enemy, his heart is also very hard, beyond his tolerance, sorry, he won't work Show mercy.
He knew that the fifth child was the target, and that the fifth child was seriously injured, so what, when the fifth child poisoned his son, everything changed. His eldest son, the only son of him and the princess, sent The son of high hopes, the fifth child really knows how to do it!
The emperor opened his eyes and looked at the prince, "Miss Yao's concubine has also gone."
The prince knew, "Yes."
Sad woman, speaking of it, the Crown Princess has a high opinion of Miss Yao's family, but it's a pity, it's doomed to be a loser.
The emperor said quietly: "The fifth child has reached his age, it's time to get married."
The prince knew in his heart that it would definitely not be the daughter of the Yao family's descendant, who was he thinking of transferring to?
Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren went to the Yamen, Master Wang sorted out the materials, "Three days are not enough time, this is sorted out in these three days."
Zhou Shuren picked it up and looked through it. In three days, he only sorted out the last two years. "Thank you."
Mr. Wang stroked his hair. He has not lost his hair these days. "It's really hard work. It's not bad in recent years. It was too difficult to check more than ten years ago."
This is not something that can be found in a short time.
Zhou Shuren put down the investigation, "Understood, Master Wang will do his best."
Master Wang, "My lord, I'm going back first."
Zhou Shuren nodded, and when Master Wang left, Zhou Shuren pressed his eyebrows, there were so many things to do.
In the backyard of the Zhou Mansion, Zhulan came in to greet Qi, "Why did you come here suddenly today?"
Qi smiled, "I haven't chatted with you for a long time, and I'm here today."
Zhulan curled her lips inwardly, why chatting with her, she knew that the Second Miss Yao came yesterday, and this one came here specially to inquire about the news, the Qi family is for the third prince, "How is Third Miss Ran?"
The smile on Mrs. Qi's face is quite sincere. Her daughter is doing well. She went to see her last time. She seems to have gained a lot of weight. She is grateful to the crown prince, but feels embarrassed. The Qi family supports the third prince. Mrs. Qi The tone dropped a little, "It's okay."
Zhulan was silent and didn't reply, she waited for Mrs. Qi to speak.
The Qi family knew a lot, and she mainly came to inquire about what role the Zhou Mansion played in it. It was so strange that Second Miss Yao came to the Zhou Mansion.
Mrs. Qi frowned, thinking of the princes in the capital, feeling depressed, "Yesterday I heard that Second Miss Yao came over."
Zhu Lan nodded, "Second Miss Yao and An He met a few times, and Miss Lin met on her birthday, so I came here to visit."
Qi smiled, "That's right, indeed, An He has lived in the capital for several years."
Zhulan smiled, but didn't say a word. If it wasn't for Qi's seeking news, she would still be able to find some topics to talk about, but she's not interested now.
Mrs. Qi smiled dryly and picked up the teacup to drink tea. She knew that it was not easy to inquire. Mrs. Yang is a smart person. She knew why as soon as she entered the door, but she had to come. She felt that she was really tired from life. The chess piece in the bag, the hot tea made my eyes dirty, how is Second Miss Yao different from her.
For a while, Mrs. Qi didn't want to talk anymore, she just wanted to drink tea quietly.
Zhulan looked at Mrs. Qi in amazement. It had been a while, but this man didn't say a word, when the sound of the piano came, and Zhulan moved her ears. It wasn't Xuehan who played the piano, Xuehan's piano sound Here is cheerful.
Mrs. Qi put down her teacup, "Is this what Ms. Zhou was talking about?"
It shouldn't be. Ms. Zhou has both parents, and a child who has been loved and raised so much, how could she play such a sad and depressing piano sound.
Zhulan said: "It wasn't Xuehan who played it, it was played by Wu Yan."
Mrs. Qi was silent. The young lady who was fostered by Zhou's family was originally emotionally unstable, but she felt very depressed when she heard the sound of the piano.
Qi got up and said, "I won't bother you, I'll go back first."
Zhulan stood up, "I'll see you off."
Qi smiled, "Okay."
Zhulan sent Mrs. Qi out, and when she came back, she followed the sound of the qin to the garden. It was autumn, and it rained heavily last night. It was very cold today, so Wu Yan sat in the pavilion and played the qin.
The depressing sound of the piano is matched with the autumn leaves, making it even more bleak.
A gust of wind blew, and Zhulan frowned and walked quickly to the pavilion. When she arrived in the pavilion, Wu Yandong's face turned pale, and after playing for a while, her fingertips were red and swollen.
Wu Yan felt his aunt's anger, and hurriedly got up, "Auntie."
Zhulan looked at the stone bench, Wu Yan didn't even put a cushion on it, Zhulan asked Mrs. Wei with a sullen face, "How do you take care of Miss?"
Mrs. Wei bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "I am willing to be punished."
