Chapter 788

In the afternoon, when Zhulan returned to the residence, she did not call all her daughters-in-law, but found them alone and called them together. She was afraid that several daughters-in-law would be embarrassed, especially the third daughter-in-law in front, who did not have as much money as the county owner.

Zhulan looked for it alone, starting with the eldest, "That's the way it is. Mother doesn't have that much money in her hand, so I want to borrow some of your rooms and return it to you two months later."

Mrs. Li thought about it a lot, but she didn't expect that her mother-in-law would borrow money. The big room didn't have much money in her hand, and the money she has now is the dividend of the dim sum shop, "Mother, the big room bought the shop with her, and I still have it in my hand. Eight hundred taels, mother, this money is the filial piety of the big room, but the big room doesn't have much money, so it can't help you much."

Zhulan didn't expect how much money the big room would have. She knew where the big room's money would go. She knew that the big room didn't have much money, and she spoke to Mrs. Li, not to test filial piety, she just hoped that the rooms would be more united and contribute their efforts. , no matter how much is the mind.

She also hopes that her daughter will know that she can help her brothers more in the future. She is a mother who is more attentive than her own mother.

Zhulan smiled, "Your filial piety, mother knows, she said it was borrowed and borrowed."

Li has known her mother-in-law for so many years, and her mother-in-law's mind will not be easily changed.

Zhulan sent Mrs Li away, Mrs Zhao came over, what Zhulan did not expect was that Mrs Zhao listened to the reason and directly handed over the bottom of the second room, "Mother, when the husband left, he took some silver money, and the daughter-in-law gave it to Yu. Shuang bought jewelry, and now I have more than 2,000 taels in my hand. My daughter-in-law will take it when I go back. Mother, don't say whether I can borrow it or not. You said that we are all family, and parents worry about the family. My second room is filial to my parents."

Zhulan looked at Zhao's eyes, she knew that Zhao's changed, Zhao's eyes couldn't hide her sadness, but now her eyes are peaceful, what Zhao said is sincere, "Your thoughts, mother lead Now, the money in my mother's hand can't be turned around for a while."

Then there was Mr. Dong, and Mr. Dong's words were similar. However, these three houses had a weak foundation. If they had money in their hands, they would buy the family's wealth.

Zhulan had enough money, so she asked Butler Wang to hand it over to Deng Xiucai. The house had already been transferred, and she felt at ease earlier.

In the teahouse in the east of the city, the third prince and the fourth prince sat opposite each other, and neither of them said a word. The two were waiting for the news. The prince entered the palace, and he took Lord Zhou with him. According to the news from the palace, he held the account book in his hand.

The third prince was a little flustered, and they had been in the palace for a few hours, but the prince and Lord Zhou had not yet left the palace.

The fourth prince's heart was also heavy. After so many years, the father and the emperor finally did not care about the prince, but don't let the prince find anything.

In the palace, Zhou Shuren drew a picture with a wooden face. In order to show it more clearly and intuitively, the trend chart was the most suitable.

Zhou Shuren scolded Yan Yunsi in his heart, and wanted to slap himself in the face, what population should he mention, now that he has to check the population and report it to the emperor, it's really a pit.

Eunuch Liu took the tea from the little eunuch, "Master Zhou didn't drink water for a long time, so drink some tea."

Zhou Shuren didn't dare to serve Eunuch Liu. This is a person who specially serves the emperor. Now the emperor is the most suspicious. He has to be cautious and take over.

Eunuch Liu actually came with a mission. Looking at the blueprint on the table, he was stunned. What is this?

Zhou Shuren drank tea and continued to work. He was about to finish his work and could finally leave the palace.

The emperor and the prince are busy watching the book, and the prince is not in the palace. These are the emperor's work. These days, they squeeze a lot of books, and the two have been busy.

The emperor rubbed his neck, "Can Zhou Shuren finish the calculation?"

Eunuch Liu, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhou has not finished accounting yet."

The emperor hummed and continued to look at the book. Time passed a little bit, and after a cup of tea, Zhou Shuren came over with two drawings, and unfolded it without any nonsense, "Your Majesty, this is the trend chart drawn by the minister, The red line is death, and the black line is population growth, because there are loopholes in household registration, and the number of deaths is not accurate, but these are enough, and we can clearly see the population changes in the past few years."

The emperor walked to the blueprint supported by a few little eunuchs. The trend chart was more intuitive than the numbers, not to mention the numbers were marked on the lines. There are too many numbers, and he can't remember them. The emperor said with emotion: "Aiqing is really a genius."

Zhou Shuren said in his heart, this is really not a great talent, such a convenient trend chart can be seen everywhere in modern times.

The prince thought that Lord Zhou was like a treasure, and would surprise you from time to time. He thought to himself that the Ministry of Returning to the Household must take care of Lord Zhou's body.

The emperor felt that this Zhuangzi was not rewarded in vain. Thinking of Zhou Shuren's talent, he finally sighed and decided to stay in the household. The household also needs people. Xiao Qing has been in the household for too long. Xiao Qing, Xiao Qingcai has always been in the position of the minister of households.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren went home with the snacks given by the emperor, and Zhu Lan helped Zhou Shuren change into the official uniform, "What do you mean, you have been in the palace until now?"

Zhou Shuren was tired. He thought he could leave after the report. In the end, the emperor asked the prince to ask him for advice. He became a teacher again, and has only left the palace until now. "Master Qiu can't sleep tonight."

Zhu Lan chuckled, "I see, many people can't sleep tonight."

Zhou Shuren lowered his voice, "There are deep roots in the Jianghuai area. Although the emperor didn't say it clearly, but I watched it and wanted to make a big move."

Zhulan asked, "But what happened?"

Zhou Shuren told what he had found, and Zhulan patted Zhou Shuren on the shoulder. This man still had a dream of becoming an official early, and this wish could not be realized.

Zhou Shuren, "..."

He felt that the lady was not comforting him!

Zhulan frowned and said, "Zhao Bo suddenly borrowed money from us, you remember, he didn't say the reason, it must have been an accident, as you said, there has always been a problem in the Jianghuai area, and this happened after Zhao Bo was promoted. What's the matter, how do I feel that Zhao Bo has entered the den of thieves!"

Zhou Shuren said in a low voice: "I have always understood that salt tax greed is certain, but I didn't expect that for more than ten years, I didn't find the root cause. I didn't think it before, but today I found that my back is a little cold, and Zhao Bo did indeed enter. A den of thieves, but since he borrowed money, I guess someone has set him up. If he is really collaborating, Zhao Bo doesn't have to borrow money, and the compromise will be settled."

Zhulan frowned, "I hope he won't be implicated."

Zhou Shuren also hopes so, Zhao Bo is his first friend in ancient times, and he is also a friend who has always kept in touch.

Zhou Shuren continued: "The power in the Jianghuai area has always been very complicated. Many families in the capital have some power in the Jianghuai area. The roots are not worse than the capital. It is not easy to find the root. However, this discovery is very important. This account has been done for so many years. It hasn't changed much I can feel some pulses along the way."

Zhulan listened and listened, looking at Zhou Shuren with a strange expression, Zhou Shuren felt uncomfortable, "Miss, why do you look at me like that?"

Zhulan laughed, "Did you find out, you have helped the emperor to discover many hidden dangers along the way, Jinzhou and Jianghuai have been hidden for many years, how do I feel that you have been increasing the luck of the royal family. "

She can imagine that without Zhou Shuren's discovery, even if the emperor wins, it will hurt his vitality, and the government will be affected, which will directly affect the people. In case of chaos, even if it recovers, it will take many years.

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "It seems to be true."

Zhulan smiled, "I think this is very good, the court is stable, the people can live in peace, and you are also blessed."

Zhou Shuren twitched the corners of his mouth, "So there are too few Zhuangzi, why should the emperor reward two, or exchange it with the Zhuangzi who rewarded the crown prince."

Zhu Lan paused, "What Zhuangzi?"
