Chapter 834 Sharpening the Knife
In a blink of an eye, on the day of the funeral of Mrs. Bai in Yaohou Mansion, Zhulan thought of Mrs. Liu in Jinzhou. In those days, Mrs. Liu died before the accident happened in Min Mansion, and she had a peaceful sleep after her death.
As for the living people who raided their homes in Min Mansion, all the adult men died, and the living were all slaves, and the women were even worse. Those who had the courage could commit suicide, and those who lacked courage could only survive.
Zhulan sighed at the cruelty of the ancient system. One person made a mistake, implicated a family, and seriously implicated the ethnic group. In addition to the strict hierarchical food chain in ancient times, survival in ancient times was really not easy.
Xuehan accompanied her mother, and she had heard her sigh a few times, "Mother, why are you feeling emotional?"
Zhulan looked at the handkerchief embroidered on her daughter's hand, "Mother just sighed that time doesn't go so fast, life, old age, sickness and death seem like a blink of an eye, and a person's life is too short."
Xuehan was startled when she heard this, "Mother, don't say that, you and your father will live a hundred years."
Xuehan felt that the death of Mrs. Bai, Yaohou's wife, must have scared her mother, and it was true that Bai was not very old, so how could it be explained that she was gone.
Zhulan also wanted to live a hundred years, but unfortunately, just thinking about it, it is difficult to be a hundred in modern times, let alone in ancient times, "You will be married in a blink of an eye, mother remembers that a few years ago, you were still a coquettish person who liked to hide in her arms. child."
Xuehan's heart trembled as she listened, "Mother, don't be emotional, it will scare your daughter."
Zhulan looked at her daughter's terrified eyes, and became happy, and changed the subject, "What gift did Rong Chuan give you when he came yesterday?"
Xuehan's cheeks were red, she thought she and Rong Chuan were very secretive, but her mother actually knew, "Bracelet."
Zhulan thought, since Rong Chuan has more money in his hand, this kid has never stopped buying gifts for his daughter. Four or five times a month is not a lot. What kind of jewelry has information, travel notes, paintings, etc. that the daughter likes? She looked envious.
She also told Zhou Shuren that Zhou Shuren lost this time.
In the palace, Shi Qing was the only one in the government hall. The emperor asked about the Yaohou mansion, "I heard that your wife is unwell, you can ask the imperial doctor to see it."
Shi Qing didn't dare to look up, but was grateful in his heart. He had no identity background. The emperor used him as a knife. It was difficult for the emperor to climb up without him. His identity restricted him. Excitedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor asked the imperial doctor to see his wife, which meant that the child was saved.
The emperor hummed and asked Shi Qing to step back.
After Shi Qing withdrew, the prince came out from behind the screen, and the emperor said, "Do you understand why I did this?"
The prince nodded, "The father took the child to test Shi Qing, Shi Qing's choice reassured the father, because the child was not born, Shi Qing had a knife hanging on his head, he must do his best, as long as the father gives some grace, he will Will be grateful to Dade."
To put it bluntly, the father is personally sharpening the knife, whether the knife can be used for a long time is ground again and again.
The father and the emperor are always true to Shi Qing. Shi Qing thinks he can guess a little bit, but he never understands it.
Shi Qing's background can only rely on his father, who is very comfortable to use. This is the difference from Yao Zheyu. The father seems to use Yao Zheyu as a knife, but he will not use it for a long time, nor will he personally sharpen the knife. Yao Zheyu's value is gone, and this knife is also useless.
Yao Zheyu's stay in the Ministry of War is proof that he doesn't even have the chance to go to court.
And Shi Qing is slowly getting in touch with something deeper.
The emperor really felt that there was nothing left for the eldest son. His intentions, the child did not understand it, but he understood it in his heart. He touched the table and thought of the Shen residence. In the past two years, there has been a lot less power, but it is still too much.
Zhou's family, Mrs. Dong received a letter from the eldest brother. Since he warned the eldest brother, the eldest brother has been looking at the other brothers very carefully. After reading the letter from the eldest brother, it turned out that the eldest brother intercepted the letter of the second brother. On the eldest sister's eldest son Jiang Du.
Dong's pregnancy fluctuated a lot, and she felt upset when she saw the letter, but the second brother had a good eye, not to mention the eldest aunt disagreed, she did not agree.
She doesn't want to be troubled in the future. She has been in the Zhou family for so many years, her parents-in-law are really good to her children. Her daughter is just like her son. She realized from the time her parents-in-law supplied the aunt's dowry that the aunt's place in her parents-in-law's heart is very important. Gao, the dowry made up is a large sum of money, so I will give it away.
Although the eldest sister-in-law will distribute the money to her son, it is no different from giving it to the Jiang family. Her in-laws really love the eldest sister-in-law, and her daughter-in-law looks envious.
Mr. Dong took the letter and prepared to reply, wrote down the situation of his nephew, and told his eldest brother to be careful not to cause trouble. After careful inspection, the letter was sent away.
Mrs. Dong felt her stomach. Every room has a son, and this one hopes to be a son.
In the Hanlin Academy, Chang Lian looked at Shi Qing who came back from the palace. Whenever Shi Qing entered the palace, when he was rarely overjoyed, he lowered his voice and asked, "But what's the happy event?"
Seeing him, Shi Qing looked at him, and said generously, "I got the reward, because my wife is not feeling well, so I exchanged the reward and asked the imperial doctor to see it."
This matter can't be hidden, he is just a sage, and he can't ask a doctor yet.
Chang Lian was still quite worried. He could remember that Mrs. Shi Qing was pregnant. It seemed that Shi Qing's sullen face these days was also because of the child.
Chang Lian looked at Shen Yang's position again. Shen Yang had already asked for two days' leave and was said to be ill.
Shi Qing followed and saw that Shen Yang was indeed ill. He was frightened by himself, and frightened, he didn't dare to go out when he was in the house.
In the afternoon, in the household department, Zhou Shuren rubbed his shoulders after he was busy with today's measurements. He hadn't sat down for a day to pick up a pen for a long time, "Master Qiu, I'll go first."
Qiu Yan stared at Zhou Shuren's table, and didn't dare to think, how could he be able to leave earlier when he had more work than him, "Master Zhou's ability to plan dishes is much better."
Zhou Shuren, "I also think I'm a lot better."
Practice makes perfect. When he was a prefect in the past, he really didn't plan to make plans every day. Since he arrived at the Ministry of Households and dealt with abacus every day, the calculation speed has been much faster.
Qiu Yan was envious. He felt that his calculations were not bad, but with Lord Zhou, he felt that it was not the same. Thinking that Lord Zhou could accompany him today, he said somewhat sullenly: "My Lord, go first, I'll leave after I finish the calculations."
Zhou Shuren hummed a little song Fortunately, he was clever enough to send Master Shang Shu's work back, otherwise, he would have to work overtime, and he would see Hu Xia when he went out.
Zhou Shuren originally walked over, stopped and turned his head, "Master Hu."
Hu Xia trotted over excitedly, "Sir, what are your orders for calling me a subordinate?"
Zhou Shuren thought of his daughter-in-law's words, and there was nothing he wanted to say, "It's okay."
Hu Xia was disappointed. He thought that Master Zhou was a good nephew and could take more care of him. He would not express himself as a person who would only be bored and work hard. He finally got the attention of his boss!
Zhou Shuren was a little hungry. He hadn't eaten the food from the household department for a long time. Today, it was too greasy, so he didn't eat much. He walked out of the door of the household department, "Yao Shizi, why are you in the household department?"
