Chapter 862
Three days later, Mr. Qiu from the household department set off for Jianghuai with his people and the large army. As for the imperial decree to search the house, he had already left quickly.
When Master Qiu left, Zhou Shuren realized that he had no rest days and was going to go to court again, and he had no rest days before Master Qiu came back.
And Qiu Yan is gone, and he will take over the work in Qiu Yan's hands, which means that the workload has doubled, and there is no overtime pay!
Zhu Lan massaged Zhou Shuren's head, "You can't come back on time for dinner on the first day since Mr. Qiu left today. After a few days, you still don't live in the household department?"
Zhou Shuren said weakly: "Almost, I already have a lot of work in my hands. Qiu Yan walked away quickly, and now he piles it up on me. Just look at it for a day, and I feel that I have a lot of gray hair."
Zhulan, "Your hair has turned white faster since you came to Beijing."
"Worry, this place is too tired."
In the entire court, you can’t do without the Ministry of Household, and to be precise, you can’t do without money. Busy reckoning is a trivial matter, and you have to do all kinds of Tai Chi. You are faced with old foxes. .
Zhu Lan took the wooden comb, "Lay down, I'll comb your hair."
Zhou Shuren stopped moving. Now his greatest enjoyment is to go home and give him a massage by his wife. This year, he was in a hurry, his scalp relaxed a lot, and he fell asleep in a daze.
Zhulan's legs are already numb. Since the beginning of winter, her weight has skyrocketed. This is a sad story. Even if she controls her appetite at night, she can't stop the trend of gaining weight. She looked down at Zhou Shuren, who was sleeping on her legs. Carefully raised her husband's head on the pillow and rubbed her legs, it was very sensual!
The next day did not dawn, Zhou Shuren was very depressed. He had just rested for a few days, and then he woke up in the morning, ate jerky, and walked slowly. Today's officials in the previous court were extraordinarily quiet, even the Minister of War was quiet. Incredible.
Also, Jianghuai's major case involved tens of millions of silver taels. Of course, silver taels have been accumulated over the past few years. At present, the fourth prince has only found the amount involved in the past five years, and no clues have been found earlier.
And this huge silver tael, the fourth prince did not touch it, and Jianghuai turned the sky and did not find much silver, plus the number of officials involved, like a big net shrouded Jianghuai, the emperor is really low pressure.
Zhou Shuren didn't close his eyes and rested himself today. He was also afraid. He stood honestly and solemnly and looked up at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair. Soon, those deep eyes stared at you, panicked.
The emperor swept the ministers in the court. How many people are still there who are secret chess? Whose house has more than 10 million taels gone to?
When the emperor thought about the pitiful bottom of the treasury every day, his heart became very angry. Now he has a few trusted ones, and he doubts everyone. His eyes fall on Zhou Shuren, ah, the problem of Jianghuai was discovered by Zhou Shuren first, "Zhou Aiqing Step forward."
Zhou Shuren was stunned. He was very honest today. Why did he call him by name? When he saw him, he peeked at him. The corners of his mouth were a little stiff, but he stepped forward honestly, "I kowtow to the emperor."
The emperor twitched the corners of his mouth, "Aiqing is exempted from the ceremony, this time the Jianghuai major case is understood, Aiqing's contribution is indispensable, and the merit will naturally be rewarded."
Zhou Shuren didn't know what medicine the emperor sold, but he didn't take advantage of it. Bah, it's good to not take it and feel sorry for himself, especially now is not the time to refute the emperor, but modestly, "I don't dare to take credit."
The emperor raised his hand, "If it wasn't for Aiqing who discovered the problem, I still don't know how much tax has been corrupted. Aiqing likes to collect books. The Jianghuai family has a long history. I will send you two boxes of books, calligraphy and paintings this time."
The emperor paused, "This time it's the real thing."
It doesn't mean copying or copying.
Zhou Shuren rejoiced in his heart. Books are an inheritance. What the Zhou family lacked was books. He used to be able to get some of them, but after entering the capital, he rarely got them.
The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren and felt relieved, "Get up!"
Zhou Shuren doesn't care about his jealous eyes, or whether he has drawn hatred, anyway, he happened to destroy the layout of the implied power several times.
Today's early morning is still very exciting. Lord Sun of the Ministry of Punishment and others stayed. When Zhou Shuren left, he could feel Lord Sun staring at him like a knife.
Zhou Shuren was a little innocent, and Master Sun wanted to comfort him, but things kept happening. It really had nothing to do with him, well, it did have a little something to do with him.
In Zhang Jinghong's house, Yao Xin squeezed the veil, "This has caught up with the Jianghuai case again. When will you come to a conclusion?"
Zhang Jinghong was not in a hurry, "There must be a conclusion before the end of the year, don't worry too, it's good to have me in the circle now, at least I can take care of myself safely."
Yao Xin bit the corner of her mouth, "But now the doctors in the medical clinic are not willing to come to the house to check your pulse. I went to buy the medicinal materials, and no one sold them to me."
This is what she is most worried about. Xianggong needs to replenish his body if he wants to heal his wounds well. He can't get the medicinal materials. How to replenish his body?
Zhang Jinghong was silent. At that time, he only thought about taking away more money and objects, but he never thought about the medicinal materials, not to mention the dowry of the lady. Originally, there were not many dowries. Silver and medicinal materials are not available.
Yao Xin stood up, "I, I."
In the end, I sat down on the chair in frustration. The husband's life experience has spread all over the capital, not to mention that the medicinal materials will not be sold to them, and even the food used was moved when they moved. Now there is only one next to her in the whole house. The girl, a rough maid, a cook in the kitchen, and three servants trusted by her husband. Although there are not many people, the daily dosage is also large, and it will not last long.
Zhang Jinghong held the lady's hand, several princes, and the second prince was okay with him, but now, he doesn't care about him, and it's not his own brother, let alone the prince.
Zhang Jinghong thought about who he could ask for help, hehe, if there is none, even if there is one, because of his background, he doesn't dare to get involved.
At noon Zhou Shuren was called over by Lord Xiao and saw the Prince, "I have seen His Royal Highness."
The prince said, "Master Zhou is exempt from the gift."
Xiao Qing replied, "His Royal Highness is here for the Fifth Prince."
Zhou Shuren, "..."
A bad feeling!
The prince cleared his throat, "This little five has been doing well recently, the father wants to let the little five have more experience, and thinking that it is the time to employ people in the rear of the household, this is a good calculation for the small five, so starting tomorrow, Xiao Wu will come to the Ministry of Housing to report."
Zhou Shuren kept smiling, even though he wanted to scold his mother, he knew that the emperor's benefits were not easy to take. It must be the stingy emperor who felt a loss after going to court. He rewarded him once, and rewarded him again. Ministry of Accounts.
Zhou Shuren continued to smile, "Lord Shang Shu, Xiaguan caught a cold yesterday, and this head hurts a bit. Mr. Qiu is in a hurry, and there are still many things that haven't gone smoothly."
