Chapter 1133： New year

"Nongmen Granny's Road to Destiny ( Find the latest chapter!

The New Year in the capital is getting closer and closer, Zhou Shuren is resting at home, and King Qi comes to the house.

King Qi was drinking tea, "Master Zhou's tea is not easy to ask for. He said that he invited this king to drink tea, and waited until the end of the year. Wouldn't Master Zhou have been hiding from this king."

Zhou Shuren, "Your Highness is joking. You also know that the Ministry of Households is always busy all the year round. Especially this year, the Ministry of Households has another business department, and at the end of the year, the minister's Huo Mu has taken up all of it."

King Qi put down the teacup, "Speaking of the Ministry of Commerce, the income of the Ministry of Household has increased a lot."

Zhou Shuren, "...the income hasn't increased much, and the household department is still short of money."

He knows that the Ministry of Commerce will only hang in the Ministry of Household for one year, and the Ministry of Commerce will be distributed alone in the year after. It hurts to think about it.

King Qi suddenly said: "This king has discovered that there are many secrets of the adults."

Zhou Shuren knew that King Qi had been staring at him, and it was the attitude of His Royal Highness King Liang, which made King Qi puzzled, "Speaking of which, His Highness has a lot of secrets, no, it shouldn't be considered a secret. At the end of this year, the minister has heard a lot. Your Highness' rumors."

King Qi froze his expression. He is a lover of color. He used to be contentious, but he was still restrained. In addition, he needed the support of the princess, and he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. Now he doesn't want to treat himself badly. He is more at ease.

In the past, the princess still cared about the position of the queen and her son as the prince, but now the princess doesn't care about him anymore, and she's not polite to him anymore.

King Qi wiped his nose, and the princess took the child back to her mother's house, stubbornly, "It's all rumors."

Zhou Shuren hehe, "Oh."

Zhou Shuren sent King Qi away, and when he returned to the yard, he saw his daughter-in-law frowning, "What's the matter?"

Zhulan handed over the two gift slips, "Look at it, the top one belongs to the Crown Princess, and the bottom one belongs to the Prince's Palace Concubine Liu Fang, both of which are heavy gifts."

Zhou Shuren looked at the gift list, the crown princess was from a good background, her family was rich, and the gift list was justifiable, but it was just Concubine Liu Fang, "This is too thick."

This gift list alone amounts to a thousand taels.

Zhulan, "I don't know what's wrong. Xuehan went to the Prince's Mansion a few days ago, and the princess even talked about you to her daughter. Now Concubine Liu Fang has given a heavy gift, and I don't know why?"

Zhou Shuren had a bad premonition, and then frowned, "This gift, forget it, the annual leave will not stop, I will write a post to the prince."

Zhulan, "It's not good, no matter what, it's still a side concubine, or a side concubine with a son. In the future, when the prince ascends the throne, that is the prince. If you directly return the gift list to the prince, you will offend people."

Zhou Shuren said: "This ceremony can't be accepted, it's better to break it at the beginning, the prince concubine's gift represents the prince's house, this side concubine is a bit too much."

"It's still too impetuous, and the prince's concubine can't stand it before the prince ascends the throne."

Zhou Shuren, "Leave it to me, you know what to do."

"Ok."

Zhou Shuren is efficient. He wrote a post directly to the prince. The prince hadn't sealed the pen yet. When he returned to the house at night, he saw the post. The prince was surprised. Zhou Shuren actually took the initiative to write a post for him. of.

Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren received a reply, changed his clothes and went to the tea house that the prince said.

Zhou Shuren arrived first, the tea was brewed, and the prince also arrived, "I have seen His Royal Highness the prince."

The prince was in a good mood, "Sit."

Zhou Shuren poured tea for the prince himself, and the prince was stunned, "Your Excellency is too attentive this year."

Zhou Shuren smiled, then took out a gift list and handed it over, "I am frightened."

The prince received Zhou Shuren's post yesterday and checked it out, so it's not surprising. He took the gift list and looked at it, but his face didn't change. He was annoyed by the rumors last time, and he was still dissatisfied with the crown princess. It won't be so great.

Speaking of which, it was the father and the emperor who revealed the Zen position, and the crown prince was a little anxious. It was really wrong. He never wanted to take Miss Wu, but his backyard was full of grass and trees.

Now this gift list, the prince feels that the beating on the backyard is not enough, "Li Dangu has taken it back."

Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief, but still had to explain clearly, "I don't know what is worth paying attention to, but I am finally the emperor."

The prince understood that it was all because of him. He praised Zhou Shuren so many times, and the women in the back house naturally thought a lot. He started to win over people before he ascended the throne, and he was really impatient.

Zhou Shuren and the prince didn't sit for a while. The prince was very busy. When he left the teahouse, he met Shi Qing. Zhou Shuren saw the old man beside Shi Qing, and the prince also noticed.

Shi Qing hurriedly greeted the ceremony, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

Then he said: "Xiaguan has seen Lord Zhou."

The prince asked, "Master Shi is this?"

Shi Qing said, "I brought my father to the teahouse to drink tea."

The prince also asked a question, and then got into the carriage to leave. Zhou Shuren was also leaving. Shi Qing said, "Sir, have a cup of tea together?"

Zhou Shuren thought for a while, "Okay."

Then he returned to the teahouse, feeling that Mr. Shi kept looking at him, Shi Qing hurriedly explained, "This is Mr. Zhou, the minister of household affairs."

The future minister of the household, although he has not yet entered the household, he knows a lot of news. As long as the prince ascends the throne, Lord Zhou's official position will change.

Mr. Shi hurriedly said, "I have seen Lord Zhou."

Zhou Shuren was very curious about the old man, but he knew that this man, who had been locked up by Shi Qing, was brought out today Seeing that the relationship between the father and son seems to have eased a lot, "Shi Qing's ability is good. "

Mr. Shi already knows that his son will enter the Ministry of Commerce next year, and he will be a sixth-rank official. From merchant to official, his son has been very smooth. Now he is still in the capital. He is very happy. Shi Qing still lacks a lot and should not be praised by adults."

Shi Qing's tense nerves were relaxed. It was about the future of the Shi family. Dad was doing well now, that's why he took the old man out.

Zhou's family, Zhu Lan asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

Zhou Shuren said: "I met Shi Qing later, so I chatted for a while."

"Zhang Yang is nestled in the Prince's Mansion, and Shi Qing is relieved."

"Well, however, Zhang Yang is still a little unusual. How long has it been since he took ten concubines!"

Zhulan didn't count them either, "Anyway, I haven't broken them, and they're still low-ranking."

Zhou Shuren's intuition told him that behind the abnormality is a big suffocation.

Zhulan said, "Have the gift list been resolved?"

"Well, it's settled."

"Chang Lian's letter has arrived, take a look."

Zhou Shuren took the letter handed over by his wife, and looked at the contents of the letter, "This kid has been doing well this year, and his level is the best."

"He also has troubles. He has only two daughters to talk about. You also send him a letter and talk about it. The granddaughters and grandsons are all good. This is fate."

She was afraid of talking for a long time, and had a hint in her heart.

Zhou Shuren, "I'll write it right now."

This year's New Year is the same as in previous years. After the New Year, the capital is most concerned about the spring season. After the New Year, Zhou Shuren's thoughts are also on Changzhi and the descendants of the clan.

Time flies, and the more you pay attention to Chunwei, the day of the exam will arrive in the blink of an eye.
