In the palace, Zhou Shuren arrived for a while, the emperor was still distracted, he hadn't seen the emperor for some days, the emperor lost a lot of weight, and he didn't dare to look at the direction of his hair.

Zhou Shuren didn't dare to disturb the emperor's distractions, so he could only have fun by himself, only to find that there were scriptures on the kang table in front of the emperor, and he even wrote a few scriptures. He was surprised that this was the first time he saw the emperor write this.

It was very quiet in the main hall, and suddenly the emperor said, "My birthday is coming soon."

Zhou Shuren has been paying attention to the emperor, and quickly connected, "Yes, the emperor, you said it's not a big deal."

"Well, I want to have a meal for the family, but it seems difficult to achieve. In fact, I don't like birthdays, every year."

The emperor paused. Although Zhou Shuren changed his mind a lot about watching the play, he still cared about what the emperor said.

The emperor is silent. Since his mother passed away, he has hated his birthday. He is not the child he was expecting to be born. He has often dreamed these days, dreaming of when he was a child, dreaming of people who have been forgotten, no, it should not be called forgetting, but It is a person who does not want to recall, and has been deeply pressed in his heart.

He began to miss his mother, whose appearance had been blurred, and his uncle who didn't want to see him. Although the uncles were angry with him, they still protected him.

Zhou Shuren didn't understand what the emperor asked him to do today, he was actually quite busy, "Your Majesty?"

The emperor returned to his senses, "I heard that you generously gave Li Zhao's only copy? Is it the real one? You have copied a few fake copies on your bookshelf. You are really generous."

Zhou Shuren's heart suddenly jumped, "This minister is not willing, Master Li insists, and I don't know where I gave Master Li the illusion, making Master Li think that the minister likes him, the minister feels bitter, cut the flesh and gave gifts, and Master Li also bullied the minister. "

The emperor smiled. The ones who really bullied Zhou Shuren were his sons. His sons were very arrogant. After enduring the old fox for so long, the third and fourth were finally gone, "I'm not too young to do anything, and Don't accept gifts from ministers."

Zhou Shuren didn't say a word, according to what he knew about the emperor, the emperor's words were by no means so simple, "In this way, I am satisfied with the birthday gift you gave me, and your third son will leave Beijing ahead of schedule. Branch Office, next year I plan to build a port, and Xuzhou will also set up one, do you think your son will go to the Maritime Affairs Department to be the chief of the sixth rank, or will he be a fellow from the sixth rank of Sanzhou?"

Zhou Shuren raised his eyes to Kan Ze's closed-eyed emperor. He guessed the emperor's thoughts, and the emperor could see through him. He did think about it, but he hesitated all the time, "Only Chang Lian?"

"No, there will be two more from the Hanlin Academy."

In the past few years, some people have been swept away, and more people have been implicated. One line is a string. Some officials who were originally prepared to record are also gone, and some vacancies have appeared.

The maritime affairs are developing rapidly, and a flat port is not enough, so a new place is chosen, and people are needed at this time.

Zhou Shuren is no longer in pain at this time. Knowing from the six-rank state, the six-rank masters have their own advantages. One is more powerful, and the other is more tempered. The emperor said that he wanted a gift, but he was actually jealous of him for accepting Rong Chuan. Gifts, for Chang Lian, the emperor has already told him how to arrange it, and now he has the opportunity to choose, "I feel that the director of the Maritime Affairs Department is more tempered."

The emperor was not surprised by Zhou Shuren's choice. The first one was slowed down. As long as Zhou Shuren was stable in the capital, Zhou Changlian would not dare to provoke him in the locality, but he lacked tempering. A good place, there is Zhou Shuren who is behind the back of his father, Zhou Changlian, thinking of this, the emperor glanced at Zhou Shuren, this man still has something in his stomach, but he lives too well, he will pretend to be stupid if he wants to dig Zhou Shuren.

The prince came in at this time, "Father, the blueprint of the Ministry of Works has been completed."

The emperor sat up and stretched out his hand to take the blueprint. Zhou Shuren hurriedly greeted the prince, but this time he didn't dare to sit, and stood up honestly.

When the blueprint was opened, the emperor motioned Zhou Shuren to hold a corner. Zhou Shuren looked at it generously. Is this a drawing of a garden? Rockeries and inner lakes are not small.

Zhou Shuren's heart trembled, this area scared him, is this going to repair the garden? Now there are several gold swallowing beasts waiting to be fed every day, and one more?

The prince accidentally saw Zhou Shuren's trembling lips, "Master Zhou? What's wrong with you?"

Zhou Shuren saw that both the prince and the emperor were looking at him, and he was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, "Your Majesty, this minister is guilty."

The emperor didn't understand, "Huh?"

Zhou Shuren was ruthless, "The Ministry of Household has no money."

The prince and the emperor were stunned, and then the emperor laughed, and the prince couldn't help laughing. Zhou Shuren knew that he was wrong when he heard it.

The emperor smiled for a while and said, "I will pay for the money myself."

Zhou Shuren smiled dryly, "My minister, I'm not an official in the Ministry of Households, and I never think about money. Now, every time I see the declining silver in the treasury, my heart aches, especially pain."

The emperor is in a good mood, Zhou Shuren's book can show how much Zhou Shuren's heart hurts, and he is in a hurry, so he said that the technology also has priorities, so spending money like this doesn't have much effect It must be targeted.

The emperor rolled up the blueprint and handed it to the prince, "I'm tired, Aiqing will return."

Zhou Shuren withdrew, and the prince also came out. Zhou Shuren asked, "His Royal Highness is out of the palace?"

The prince nodded, "Well, Gu is going to see the address of Jianyuanzi, if Master Zhou is not busy accompany Gu to visit?"

Zhou Shuren wanted to say that I was very busy, but the Crown Prince didn't give him a chance to say that he had already taken a step forward and told himself to endure it. Don't look younger than you, that is your next boss, or the boss who controls your own life and wealth. .

The prince didn't want to communicate with Zhou Shuren much in the palace. When he got out of the palace and got on the carriage, the prince said: "The fourth son of the Zhou family will take the township exam next year?"

"Yes."

The prince said again: "And the son-in-law of the adult."

Zhou Shuren said in his heart, you really know a lot, "The son-in-law of the minister is a person with no ambition."

The prince smiled, "The adults are very good at teaching children, and the children they teach are good. Gu is also a father, and he pays close attention to the children's knowledge. This is how parents want their children to be well."

Zhou Shuren blinked, "His Royal Highness said yes."

The prince said again: "Master Zhou only accepted one apprentice?"

"Yes, I have only one apprentice, and I will also participate in the township examination next year."

The prince continued: "This apprentice should be cautious."

Zhou Shuren realized that the crown prince was not just chatting with him, but he really did not want to continue accepting it, "This minister also thinks the same, and the children of the minister's own family can't be taught, and the minister is powerless."

His Royal Highness was silent. Indeed, Zhou Shuren had quite a few children.

The carriage drove slowly and stopped very soon. Zhou Shuren was stunned. This place is not far from the palace. "Is this here?"
