Chapter 872 Pretending to be Confused
Butler Ding handed over the greeting card, "The card just sent by Ran's residence."
Zhulan took it over and looked at it, with a smile on her face, "Ran Wan has arrived in the capital."
When Mrs. Gao heard Ran's surname, she reacted for a while before thinking of who it was, the future eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Zhou family, and said with a smile: "This is a greeting card."
Zhulan put down the post, "Yes."
Seeing that it was getting late, Mrs. Gao said, "I'll go back today, you choose a good day and let me know."
Zhulan stood up, "Thank you so much for today."
"I will trouble you in the future."
Zhulan, "As long as you ask, I will absolutely obey."
In the household department, Zhang Yang was sneezing all the time, his mind was a little confused, he couldn't concentrate, and he lay weakly on the table. It was useless for him to be careful, he still caught a cold.
He didn't want to come today, but with a sigh of relief in his heart, he gritted his teeth and came.
He has a low EQ, but he is not stupid. When he found out that Rong Chuan had gone to the Zhou Mansion, he knew the reason for his suffering. He sneered. He was raised differently. He couldn't help but think of Zhang Jinghong who was still alive.
Zhou Shuren naturally knew that Zhang Yang was ill, but the doctors were quite worried, because Zhou Shuren's calmness was infectious, and the doctors were all calm.
But when they heard the news that the fifth prince had entered the palace, several Lang Zhong raised it again, Zhao Langzhong was pushed out, "My lord, the fifth prince has entered the palace."
Zhou Shuren looked at the completed form without raising his head, "Oh."
Zhao Langzhong repeated again, "My lord, the Fifth Prince is ill and has gone into the palace."
My lord, you dug a hole for the fifth prince, everyone can understand, now that the fifth prince has entered the palace to file a complaint, please give me some feedback!
Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "I heard, you should do whatever you want. The provincial taxes are filled in according to the form I just said. Hurry up, I'm in a hurry to use it."
Zhao Langzhong carefully discerned the tone of the adults, the adults really don't care, several people glanced at each other, "Yes."
Zhou Shu benevolently said that if Zhang Yang enters the palace, he will definitely not see the emperor's face.
If you are sick and file a complaint, if this is your own son, the emperor will definitely go and have a look, but unfortunately it is not your own son, the emperor is afraid of being infected!
Especially now that the emperor is not young, the current emperor loves his body more than ever.
Inside the palace, Zhang Yang felt his head getting hotter. He must be pitiful now, and his father would vent his anger on him.
The wish is good, but it is a pity that I didn't even enter the door of the government hall, and I didn't even see Eunuch Liu, only a little eunuch.
The little eunuch was still quite far away, "Your Highness, the emperor has been unwell for the past few days and cannot see His Highness. His Highness is sick. The Emperor asked His Highness to go back to the mansion to rest. The imperial physician is already on his way to the Prince's Mansion."
The heat in Zhang Yang's heart froze in an instant, and his brain was no longer hot, only a cold chill, "What did the prince say?"
The little eunuch was a little dazed, shaking his head, "Not really."
The little eunuch lowered his head and continued: "The emperor still has something to say to His Highness, so that His Highness should not hold his hands too long, and always remember the face of the royal family."
Zhang Yang's body became cold in an instant, his father knew every move he made, Zhou Shuren pitted his father also knew, this time was also a lesson given to him by his father, this is the most ruthless part of the royal family.
Zhang Yang turned around staggeringly, and left the government hall step by step. Halfway there, there was snowflakes in the sky. In the long alley, there was no one in front, making the palace even colder.
Zhang Yang quickened his pace, walking fast as if there was a beast behind him.
In the government hall, the crown prince looked up at his father several times, hesitant to speak.
The emperor felt it, "Speak up if you have something to say."
The prince said: "Father, do you think Zhou Shuren has noticed something? He has grasped the measure very well."
The emperor raised his head, "You also feel this way?"
The prince nodded, "Yes, everyone pays attention to the true and false princes, but Zhou Shuren has never inquired about it. My son thought Mr. Zhou was too cautious, but since Zhang Yang entered the household department, Zhou Shuren's scale was too accurate, and my son felt a little wrong."
Not to destroy the plan, nor to completely anger Zhang Yang, this is not so easy to grasp.
The emperor was silent for a while, and cursed in a low voice, "This is the real old fox, who left himself outside, but guessed a little bit."
The prince lowered his eyes, "Father, how much do you think Zhou Shuren knows?"
The emperor threw down the booklet in his hand, "I should be able to guess a little bit, probably not much, the smartest thing about him is pretending to be confused."
The prince smiled, "I think so too."
It was in the afternoon when Zhou Shuren knew that Zhang Yang had returned to the prince's mansion, but the emperor didn't see him. The news of the capital spread quickly, so he didn't worry about it at first, so he turned around and didn't care.
The next day, Ran Wan's mother Liu brought Ran Wan to Zhou's house.
Mrs. Liu brought Ran Wan to salute, and Mrs. Liu said, "These are the pear ointment my mother-in-law brought you."
Zhulan liked pear paste when she was in Jinzhou. This was made by Ran Qi himself. "I still thought that if I'm not in Jinzhou this year, I won't be able to eat it. Your mother-in-law is too caring."
Mrs. Liu replied, "Grandma said you must be thinking about it, so I made some more this year, and I brought most of them."
Zhulan smiled and asked Mrs. Song to take it down, and waved to Ran Wan, "I received the post yesterday, and I was only thinking of girl Wan, and it's been a while since she's become more and more handsome."
Seeing that Yang Shuren's tone was not perfunctory, Mrs. Liu smiled deeper, "How can you say that the change is so big, you just haven't seen her for too long."
Zhulan hugged Ran Wan, "You mother, you can't notice it every day, I don't tell lies at my age."
Mrs. Liu was happy. The more the mistress of the Zhou family liked her daughter, the more she would be able to marry her in the future, "I will live in the capital from now on, so I will let Wan'er come to accompany you more."
Zhulan replied, "That's a good thing, you won't let him go when the time comes."
"Definitely let him go."
At this time, Mrs. Song came in with a box, and Zhulan took the box. Inside the box was a set of hair masks prepared yesterday, and she opened the box and handed it to Ran Wan, "This set of hair masks is newly made, and the gems on it are rewarded by the palace. Give it to girl Wan."
There are wrinkles at the corners of Liu's smiling eyes. This set of hair is even better than the one given by my sister-in-law. The gemstones on the jewelry are worthy of being rewarded by the palace. I am very satisfied with how much the Zhou family attaches importance to their daughter, but you should be humble, " Auntie, this hair is too precious."
Ran Wan also hurriedly put down the box, "Wan'er can't take it, lady, it's too precious."
Zhulan pulled Ran Wan, "If you don't accept me, don't you want to accompany me, an old lady?"
Ran Wan blinked, then picked up the box, "Wan'er took it, and when Wan'er comes uninvited, you can't drive Wan'er away."
"Hey, look at what I said, I wish I could let you stay with me, an old lady, but it's a pity, Wan'er is still too young, and I have to wait a few years."
Ran Wan's calm face turned red all of a sudden, and she lowered her head in shame.
