Chapter 202： It's okay to punch yourself in the face

Latest website: In the evening, Zhulan checked the gift list and collected the gifts in different categories. Today's gift has the most fur, but there is no red fox fur. They are all medium fur. The most received today is the mink fur. , Although the fur is not first-class, Li Shi is also very tight, but unfortunately Zhulan still has no meaning.

Zhulan sent the three daughters-in-law away, locked the door of the warehouse again, and returned to the backyard with the gift slip.

Zhou Shuren heard the footsteps, saw Zhulan coming back and said, "Have you counted?"

Zhulan opened the gift list, "The Shi family has come to give gifts too? Didn't the Shi family go to Beijing with the whole family?"

Zhou Shuren took the gift list and saw the name of the Shi family. The gift he gave was not light, a set of high-quality ceramic tea sets. I haven’t stopped giving gifts to Xiucai Juren, the master should leave a message when he is gone, it won’t be just for me, I estimate that all the top ten Juren will be given away.”

Zhulan took the gift list, "It's really unexpected, when we first came, according to the original body's memory, how much the emperor hated the merchants, how harshly he suppressed the merchants, never expected that our emperor would beat himself up. His face is not ambiguous, he even authorized Shi Qing to take part in the imperial examinations, and he will not want to break it up in the future."

Zhou Shuren was also surprised by the emperor's shamelessness. He thought he was shameless sometimes, and couldn't compare to the emperor, "So the emperor is a ruthless person, but it also proves that our wings are too hard, Shi Qing. It also changed my destiny."

And the emperor opened the door, why didn't he put the bait, just waiting for someone to take the bait!

Zhulan closed the gift list, "Shi Qing's fate has changed completely, the master has been replaced by the emperor, but even if Shi Qing becomes an official in the imperial examination, he can only be loyal to the emperor. "

Zhou Shuren chuckled, "I was loyal to the emperor in the era of imperial power. Shi Qing's move is wonderful."

Zhulan said faintly, "No wonder she dumped Wang Ru so neatly, and she climbed onto the thickest thigh."

Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes, "Actually, I admire Shi Qing very much. He explained that people don't do it for themselves. It's a pity that Shi Qing was also a businessman when he participated in the imperial examination, which would greatly limit his achievements. What a character!"

Zhulan's eyes were bright, "Who do you think is more powerful, Shi Qing or Wu Ming?"

Zhou Shuren said without thinking, "Shi Qing."

"Why?"

Zhou Shuren curled his lips, "Shi Qing has been growing up in adversity, and has been dealing with various forces since childhood. Wu Ming's mentality and ruthlessness are not comparable to Wu Ming. On the other hand, Wu Ming, because of our indirect influence, Wu Ming's imperial examination road went smoothly. , Wu Ming has long lost his determination to ascend to the top."

Zhulan was very curious, "You said that Shi Qing would not have kidnapped Wang Ru by directing and acting, and secretly offered Wang Ru up, right?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "Shi Qing can't be that stupid, he knows that Wang Ru hates him, how could he let Wang Ru see the emperor, but he can't kill Wang Ru, because he knows that Wang Ru's traces cannot be touched, the emperor We can find out sooner or later, so the best way is that Wang Ru was kidnapped by others."

Zhu Lan narrowed her eyes, "Shi Qing dare not kill Wang Ru, because once Wang Ru dies, he will definitely be suspected by the emperor, the emperor's suspicion will think that Shi Qing did not explain everything, that Shi Qing hid things, Wang Ru Once Ru dies, Shi Qing will face the same predicament as Wang Ru."

"Yes, so Wang Ru's kidnapping is the most brilliant point. Wang Ru has been kidnapped, and according to the emperor's suspicion, he will never trust Wang Ru, and when he finds Wang Ru, Shi Qing will have enough time to get the emperor's information. Trust, for the unknown and the already known, everyone will trust the already known.”

Zhulan continued, "And Shi Qing must have dug out almost everything in Wang Ru's mind."

Zhou Shuren said quietly: "We can guess so much, because we know who Wang Ru is, and we have been paying attention to Shi Qing and Wang Ru. It's hard for others to guess. Shi Qing is too scheming. With him, his achievements are immeasurable."

Zhulan silently recalled that after Wang Ru was kidnapped, Shi Qing was looking for someone with great fanfare. There were signs posted all over the street. She and Zhou Shuren saw a lot on the way back. Well, Shi Qing is so fanatical. The people who dared not let Wang Ru show her face could only hide Wang Ru, and Wang Ru's situation was worrying!

Zhou Shuren saw that it was getting late, "I've been busy for two days, and I haven't showered for two days. I'll go get you hot water to take a bath."

Zhulan really wanted to take a bath, "Okay."

In modern times, Bamboo Orchid is bathed once a day, no matter in spring, summer, autumn or winter. In ancient times, conditions did not allow it. In addition to wearing it in the Northeast, it is more convenient to take a bath in summer. Bamboo orchid's habits have changed a lot.

It was very late when Zhulan and Zhou Shuren took a bath. Zhou Shuren was exhausted after pouring the water. The two stopped chatting and fell asleep after lying down for a while.

In the next few days, fewer people came to congratulate Xi, but more people wanted to be apprentices. All of them were scholars who wanted to learn from Zhou Shuren. Some of them sincerely valued Zhou Shuren's ability, and a large part was for the future. benefit.

Zhulan knows Zhou Shuren too well. These people are useless. Zhou Shuren won't accept apprentices. Zhou Shuren raised the Zhou family's sons just to live a better life, so he doesn't want to spend energy to teach apprentices!

Especially in ancient times, when the master was like a father, Zhou Shuren was even more reluctant to dislike trouble.

The people who came to the door were disappointed, and they all knew that Zhou Shuren did not accept apprentices, and the number of people who came to the door gradually decreased.

The invitation from Jiang's residence has also arrived. This is the first time that Zhou Shuren has received an invitation from Lord Jiang, and Zhulan will also go with him.

Zhulan didn't plan to take the Dong family, even if the big Dong family was Dong's sister.

This time, when I went to Jiangfu, UU Reading Zhulan didn't bring anyone with me. I dug out the clothes I bought in the capital, brought jade jewelry, packed up and took gifts and Zhou Shuren to Jiangfu.

It was the first time that Zhulan came to Jiang Mansion. Jiang Mansion was the courtyard of Sijin, Zhou Shuren stayed in the front yard, and she followed the housekeeper to the back yard.

Zhulan kept her eyes straight and walked gracefully.

The housekeeper secretly observed and nodded, smiling a little more, "Mrs. Juren, come this way."

Zhulan followed the housekeeper across the gate and nodded with a light smile.

With less than a cup of tea, Zhulan saw Jiang Dongshi, Jiang Dongshi was sitting in the main seat, Jiang Dongshi and Dongshi were very similar, Jiang Dongshi was well maintained, and they did not look like Thirty-one years old, and he looks like he is in his twenties.

Zhulan hurriedly glanced at Jiang Dong's clothes, which were all uniforms. She thought that Jiang Dong's would give her a slap because of Dong's, but she didn't expect to be very kind to her. Zhulan knew it, and went forward to salute: "I've met Dong Yiren."
