Chapter 792 The Actions of the Duke's Mansion
In Zhoujia Village, Chang Zhimo wrote several books and asked the boy to send him to ethnology. He walked out of the house with his shoulders moving, "Sister, what are you doing?"
Xuemei signaled Changzhi to sit down, and said with a smile: "Your nephews like to eat walnuts. These are the walnuts my father-in-law went to pick on the mountain. Let's not dry them. I'll pack them up."
Chang Zhi stretched out his hand to help put it on, "The hickory nuts are too small."
"Yes, it's not as big as the one sent back by parents."
Changzhi helped Walnut dress up and asked, "Sister, Jiang Miao went to Jiang's house again?"
Xuemei stood up and cleaned the dust off her body, "Ah, she had a good time with Mu Lan from the Jiang family."
Changzhi said calmly, "I asked Jiang Muchen in the ethnology exam. This kid is not bad. He has gone through so much and can still study steadily. His disposition is also good."
Xuemei understood her younger brother's meaning, "Your boy can talk in circles now."
Changzhi smiled, "Aren't I afraid that sister has something on her mind? Sister, you fell in love with Jiang Muchen?"
Xuemei lowered her voice, "In the past, I didn't think much about it. Later, your brother-in-law said that this child is good, and I listened to it more often, so I paid more attention to it. However, the two children are still young, and Miu Miao is not often Go, I know what's on my mind."
"It's good that you know what's in your heart."
Changzhi is just such a niece, and he is very caring, especially since her niece is so well-behaved, it's not easy to be a girl. He hopes that her niece can have a good marriage and find a man who can treat her sincerely.
Xuemei smiled happily. Ever since she was a child, Changzhi didn't care about anything. This meeting, Changzhi really matured.
Zhou Shuren drank a cup of tea in the capital, the Ministry of Household Affairs, but the prince did not speak. He kept looking down at the booklet in his hand, and waited until he had read it before speaking, "Master Zhou, do you want to read it?"
Zhou Shuren's eyes are not blind, this is not the account book of the Ministry of Households, but the booklet of the Ministry of Officials' assessment, "I dare not go beyond it."
The prince opened the page with Wu Ming, "Wu Ming was promoted to an official position this year, and there are very few records on it, just a few strokes."
Zhou Shuren was not surprised. For those who are in control, they want to control everything. Naturally, they have to find out clearly. He said in a controlled tone: "Wu Ming is not easy for a child. An elder brother is like a father. He has two younger brothers and a younger sister.
He had a bad reputation for losing his father and mother in his early years. He was worried about his younger siblings. "
The prince hummed, "Wu Ming is still very responsible. It's a pity that the number one scholar stayed in Bianzhou. By the way, Mr. Zhou, if you went to Jianghuai, where would you start the investigation?"
Can Zhou Shuren curse in his heart? The crown prince used Wu Ming to make him speak. Look at this method, enduring the stomachache. This time is a rare opportunity, and it can make the crown prince remember Wu Ming completely, so he started to speak, "If If the minister is going to Jianghuai, the minister will first send people to contact the relatives of the servants in each mansion, especially the relatives of the servants who have some power in their hands."
The crown prince raised his eyebrows, "A relative of the servant?"
Zhou Shuren said: "All the mansions can control the servants in the mansion well, but it is difficult for the relatives of these servants to control them, and there are inevitably mistakes, especially the female family members. Some of the female family members will show off and gossip when chatting. Don't underestimate the news. , but it is often the clue, and the minister will sort out the news first, and then proceed to the next step of investigation."
The crown prince curled his lips, "How to check next?"
Zhou Shuren coughed, "I will keep an eye on the prefect of Huaizhou, the prefect of one state, or the prefect of Shangzhou. He is the person who knows the whole state best. Even if he has nothing to do with him, he will definitely know something."
Speaking from his experience, he has been a magistrate, and he knows too well that it is very easy for the magistrate to want to know, especially within the boundaries of the state, it is difficult to hide it from the magistrate.
The crown prince felt that Zhou Shuren must have something to say, but these are enough.
Zhou Shuren returned to the house, as long as his method works, Wu Ming should be able to move around next year.
In the Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Du came out of the main courtyard with her two daughters-in-law. Mrs. Du was not in a good mood, and her mother-in-law did not ignore her, but she just had no energy.
Mrs. Du waved her hands, "Go back to your yard too, you don't have to follow me."
Song's heart is stable, and she just listened to her grandma who kept saying how good Zhang Rongchuan is. Xianggong is the eldest son of the Duke's mansion, and he will inherit the Duke's mansion in the future. It doesn't matter who the old lady prefers, and the old lady will lose The money from the private house, anyway, their family will inherit the Duke's mansion, this is the big one.
Yu's face is haggard and anxious. In the past, the elders in the mansion were more tolerant of the second bedroom because of the poor health of the husband. Now that Zhang Rongchuan has become the apex of grandma's heart, what status does the second bedroom have in the Duke's mansion.
Yu's head was lowered, she could have imagined that when Zhang Rongchuan's identity was fully revealed and all the servants in the mansion knew about it, they would definitely not show courteousness to the Second Household. The reason is very simple, the Second Household has lost hope of adoption!
In the main courtyard, Mrs. Guogong talked to her husband, "In order to keep a low profile back then, Ning Hui's health was not good, so he deliberately chose the Du family who was not too high. Mrs. Yu was chosen by us, so it’s worth noting Mrs. Yu.”
The Duke patted his wife's hand, "Don't worry about it."
Mrs. Duke, "I'm just afraid that Rong Chuan will be wronged."
Grandpa Guo smiled, "We can't see it, and Ning Hui and Ning Xu are here, they know Rong Chuan's true identity."
Mrs. Duke smiled, "You are right."
In the Zhou mansion, it was a coincidence that Zhulan was holding the letter she had just received. Just as she was talking about Zhao Bo, Zhao Bo’s letter arrived. Little, although Zhao Bo didn't say it clearly, he expressed his meaning clearly. Thanks to Zhou Shuren's light, these days have gone smoothly.
Since there is smoothness, there will be bad luck, and Zhao Bo was really embarrassed.
In the evening, after dinner, Zhulan took out the letter, "Look at it."
After Zhou Shuren read it, "It's about the same as what I guessed. If it wasn't for Wu Ming, I would definitely introduce Zhao Bo to the prince. Now it's fine as long as Zhao Bo doesn't participate."
Zhu Lan said: "Be careful not to take the blame."
Zhou Shuren put down the letter, "Now I can't scare the snake, and I can't write the letter, I can only hope that Zhao Bo can be more vigilant."
"Um. "
In the third room, Chang Lian is hugging his daughter, who is extremely cute, "These days, our daughter seems to have grown taller."
Dong Chuchu put down her needle and thread, "It's true that I have grown a lot, and my clothes are too small. By the way, mother told me about Rong Chuan's life experience today. You said we should add makeup to my little sister. What should we add?"
She thought about it all afternoon, and found out all her dowry, but unfortunately, there was not much of her dowry available.
Changlian said: "Add more money, we have too few good things in one room."
Dong Shi smiled, "Okay, listen to you."
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was Zhou Shuren's day to rest and take a bath. Early in the morning, the masters of the Duke's Mansion all boarded the carriage, and behind the carriage there were young servants carrying gifts. The team was huge. Action, West City quickly spread!
