Chapter 752
Ning Xu had been reluctant to see Rong Chuan. His father said that Zhou Shuren had just taken office, and it would be better for Ningguo Mansion to keep away from Zhou Manor. This was a coincidence, "Are you here to see a painting?"
Rong Chuan took another step forward, "Well, Master Hou also has an appointment?"
Ning Xu nodded, "Yes."
Rong Chuan was a little disappointed, but still asked, "Master Hou is busy recently?"
It's been a long time since I saw him. Ever since I felt that Lord Ning was a father, he had never received the care of his parents since he was a child. Suddenly he had a father, and he slowly longed for his care.
There was surprise in Ning Xu's eyes, Rong Chuan cared about him very much, the joy in his heart was overflowing, he couldn't help but reached out and stroked Rong Chuan's hair, "I'm really busy recently, the army is going back to court."
He didn't lie either, recently he was indeed instigated by the emperor, which further confirmed that the emperor did not want the Ningguo Mansion to contact the Zhou Mansion and affect Zhou Shuren.
Rong Chuan restrained his emotions and took a step back, "Master Hou, please do your work first."
Ning Xu nodded to Mrs. Zhou who greeted him, then put down the curtains of the car, "Let's go."
Zhulan waited for the carriage to leave, she looked at Rong Chuan, and Rong Chuan had been watching the carriage. When Zhulan was chatting with Dong Shi, Dong Shi said that Chang Lian and Rong Chuan often met Lord Ning, and at that time she really I didn't think much about it, I always thought that my uncle took care of my nephew.
It's wrong to look at it now. Why does this uncle see the way a father looks at his son? Rong Chuan looks at Ning Xu as if he looks at his father. If it wasn't for confirming that Rong Chuan is the emperor's son, she would have to think too much.
Zhulan quickly thought of Shen Yang, looked at Rong Chuan's appearance, and realized that the emperor and the queen really protected Rong Chuan. They didn't want to implicate Rong Chuan at all, so they hinted at Ninghou Grandpa!
The painting building, Zhulan took her granddaughter and daughters upstairs. This painting building occupies a large area, and the shops on both sides are also painting buildings. The last time I opened it up, it won’t be all at once. The backyard of the painting building can be seen from the window, and there are many houses in the backyard, and there are paintings in every room.
Zhulan stood by the window, "There are quite a few people today."
This backyard is full of people, people come and go.
Dong was a little excited, it was her first time to come to the painting building, "Mother, this should be the largest painting building in the capital."
Bamboo orchid,
"I just heard Rong Chuan say that it seems to be the largest painting building, and the paintings here are all good."
It's a pity that the family is a bit tight, otherwise, she would have bought two paintings back, and thinking of the money, her purse would shrink at the end of each month.
In the household department, Zhou Shuren and Qiu Yan were looking at the banknotes from various departments, which were just sent by the palace, and Qiu Yan was used to it, "Just read it and know it in your heart."
Zhou Shuren didn't think about it, but it was interesting to see the reason, so he took a few more glances, the reason from the Ministry of Rites. The supplies in the Ministry of Rites are all outdated and should be replaced.
The most inconspicuous one is the Ministry of Industry, there is no way, the Ministry of Industry really has no confidence, um, the weakest one.
Zhou Shuren didn't believe the reason of the Ministry of Rites. Regardless of the lack of real power in the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites ranked third among the six departments. If you want money, you can definitely get it. On the contrary, the Ministry of Industry really needs money to replace it.
Xiao Qing snorted, "The household department finally got some money, and this one needs money at the beginning of the month."
Zhou Shuren said: "There are no notes from the Ministry of War here."
Xiao Qing's face turned dark all of a sudden, "Wait, old man Li will be here later."
People can't talk about it. As soon as the words were finished, Lord Li, Minister of the Ministry of War, came in, "Brother Xiao, my brother wants to visit my brother, but my brother just keeps talking about my brother. It's better for us to have a good relationship!"
If Zhou Shuren didn't need to be greeted, he must have looked away. Master Li's mouth is really powerful!
Zhou Shuren and Qiu Yan saluted, "Lord Li."
Master Li happily said, "Ah, you two are here too."
Then he said to Xiao Qing: "I really envy my brother, he is a capable person, unlike me, who looks like a fool."
Crying, fussing, and hanging himself, even if they don't, there is no way to still want to sit in Lao Tzu's position. The military department can't be handed over to Han Han, otherwise, he will be bullied to death.
Xiao Qing twitched the corners of his mouth, and his beard moved, "We have been dealing with each other for so many years, who doesn't know who, even if you say that I am your own brother, there is no life in asking for money."
Li Zhao stared, "Aren't you my own brother, brother, you can't hurt my brother's heart."
Zhou Shuren looked at the ceiling this time, otherwise he would have laughed, this is a great bookmaker, he asked himself that he is already thick-skinned, but this time he lost, he can't compare with Master Li!
Xiao Qing's stomach hurts, disgusted, "The door is behind, quickly disappear from my eyes, our household department is very busy, you hurry up."
Li Zhao saw how soft he was, so he pulled the chair and sat down, "Old man Xiao, you can't drive me away, I'm just spending time with you today, don't try to send me away if you don't have ten thousand taels."
This time he really didn't come here for the compensation money, he withheld the money for the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Finance just got the money, if he didn't get some back, after a long time, the Ministry of War won't get anything.
Xiao Qing's face turned black, he still had to talk about the library with two assistants, the money given by the sea merchants didn't satisfy him, so he also had to think about how to get more money out of the library, anyway, it doesn't matter if it's cheating the prince , Whoever cheated, you can only cheat once, as long as the household purse is comfortable.
Li Zhao looked at Xiao Qing playfully. He has been paying attention to the follow-up of the household department. He has dealt with Xiao Qing for so many years, and he can't say that he understands Xiao Qing completely, but he understands half of it. He is confident about getting money.
Zhou Shuren and Qiu Yan looked at each other, they should be the background.
Zhou Shuren thought about how much silver was left in the household department. Don't look at more than two hundred thousand taels, there are more places to use the silver. It's some urgent money, and the Ministry of Households really doesn't have much money.
Xiao Qing gritted his back molars. Li Zhao is so thick-skinned and shameless. He has been taught. Over the years, the Ministry of War has asked for the most money from him. It all depends on Li Zhao, Li Zhao. Really selfless, otherwise, this old guy wouldn't have sat in the position of Shangshu without moving.
Li Zhao took the tea and was jealous every time he drank it. He is a tea lover. Man, this heart can't play the other movies, and I've been bullied all the time!"
Xiao Qing snorted, "You can shut up, you are envious, you go to apply in front of the emperor!"
Li Zhao gave a dry laugh, he knew that the Ministry of Finance was hard-pressed, and the expenses of the Ministry of Finance were specially approved by the emperor, so he didn't dare, "I'm just talking about it."
At this time, the informer came in, "My lord, the princes have arrived."
