Chapter 1055 Similarity

In the capital, five days passed in a blink of an eye. Many things happened in the capital during the five days. All eyes were focused on the Chen family. The tragic case of the Yao family was overshadowed. The Chen family retreated cleanly and neatly. Old Chen even went directly to the manor in the capital. Many people went to watch when they moved.

Zhou Shuren didn't care about these. He took Yang Wen to visit Li Zhao. He was cheated the first time he came to Li's house, and this time he was asking for help.

Li Zhao looked at Yang Wen and said, "This guy is quite strong."

Zhou Shuren explained, "My Yue family is a military family, and the children are all strong and sturdy."

Li Zhao knew Zhou Shuren's in-laws. The father of the child in front of him had made contributions in the past. "Let's go outside. I'll have someone try this kid's martial arts."

Zhou Shuren has confidence in Yang Wen. This kid has never slacked off since coming to Beijing. He would discuss with Jianyan every day. "Okay."

Yang Wen was a little nervous, fearing that he would embarrass his aunt. He held the sword in his hand and looked at the guard opposite him carefully.

Zhou Shuren and Li Zhao sat aside drinking tea, but their eyes never left the two people competing.

In less than a cup of tea, Li Zhao smiled and said, "This kid's martial arts are really good. With such skills, you can rest assured in the barracks."

Zhou Shuren raised his teacup and said, "Thank you."

Li Zhao returned the favor with a cup of tea. This was not a big deal. Zhou Shuren rarely came to visit. He whispered, "Do you have any ideas?"

Zhou Shuren restrained his emotions, and looked as if he didn't understand what you were saying. "What?"

Li Zhao smiled. He didn't believe Zhou Shuren didn't understand. He wanted to ask the Yao family, "It's no use pretending to be stupid."

Zhou Shuren took a sip of tea and asked, "What does Lord Li think?"

Li Zhao laughed, "I didn't have any idea before, but now I have some."

Zhou Shuren, "Hmm?"

Li Zhao curled his lips and said, "The Yao family is heading towards extinction."

Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes in his heart, he knew it, and continued drinking his tea and smiled.

Li Zhao felt it was boring. He finally wanted to chat? He was the most aggrieved one. The position of Minister of War meant he was destined to be a lonely minister, and he had to keep everything to himself.

At Zhou's house, Zhulan was stunned when she heard what the lady said. "Your father-in-law said that?"

Xue Han nodded, "My father-in-law and Rong Chuan said so."

Zhulan only thought that the emperor was forcing and venting his anger on the Yao family? She never expected that "the situation of the Rong family back then was very similar to that of the Yao family?"

Xue Han was also surprised. "It doesn't seem like what Rong Chuan said. The casualties of the Rong family were not as great as those of the Yao family. It's just that the situation was similar. They were all swallowed up bit by bit."

She was also very surprised when she heard it, and felt that the tragedy of the Yao family was not simple, and her father-in-law would not say these things for no reason.

Zhu Lanxin's voice quickened a little. She made a bolder guess that the Yao family must have intervened when the Rong family was wiped out. If that was the case, it would make sense. Did the emperor not only force them? Or did he give them a taste of their own medicine? This was indeed in line with the emperor's character.

Xue Han pulled her mother's sleeve and asked, "Mom, what are you thinking about?"

Zhulan came back to her senses, "Nothing, I was just a little surprised."

Xue Han didn't think much about it. "I heard Rong Chuan say that when he was in the palace, he would sometimes hear the emperor mention the Rong family. The jade pendant that the emperor is carving now is from the Rong family. It's a pity that the carving is difficult, and Rong Chuan has not seen the complete jade pendant yet."

Zhulan was thinking about the connection between the Rong family and the Yao family, and didn't take the young lady's words seriously. "The construction of Rong Garden shows how much the emperor values ​​the Rong family."

Xue Han nodded, "Prince Qi is staying in Rongyuan and won't come out now."

Zhulan remained silent, and the Chen family gradually withdrew from the court. Prince Qi also stayed out of it. In the past two days, he even moved into Rongyuan, which blocked a lot of attention.

Xue Han only said one sentence, and didn't dare to say more, "Mom, my nephew looks too much like my sister-in-law, they look like they were carved from the same mold."

Zhulan also laughed. Yes, she looks too much like Li. The children have grown up a little in the past few days and look even more like her. They look exactly like her, with their eyes and nose. The eldest one is so cute that Li is a little disgusted with him.

The children in the family basically take after her and Zhou Shuren. None of them are fat, and the boys are thinner. Now there is a child who looks like Li, but I don’t know if his physique will be like Li.

In the afternoon, Yang Wen came back by himself. Zhu Lan asked, "Where is your aunt?"

Yang Wen grinned. He had performed well today, but now he couldn't calm down. "I met Master Yao on the way back. My aunt and Master Yao were drinking tea, so they asked me to come back first."

Zhulan nodded. Zhou Shuren had always wanted to meet Yao Zheyu by chance, and today his wish came true.

At the entrance of Zhoujia Village, the carriage slowed down. Su Xuan couldn't wait to open the curtain of the carriage, "Is this my husband's hometown?"

Changzhi gazed at the familiar scenery and nodded, "Yes, this is where I grew up. Actually, it can't be called a village anymore. The villages in the past were not this big, and there weren't so many tall houses."

Su Xuan's hometown is a famous place, with a foundation accumulated from generation to generation. The Zhou family still needs several generations of accumulation before they can put down the curtain in their hands.

When Changzhi arrived at the old house, Steward Ding was already waiting. Even the clan leader was there. Changzhi hurriedly got off the carriage and said, "Clan leader, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Chief Zhou smiled and said, "It didn't take long. Changzhi is getting more energetic."

Changzhi explained, "We should have arrived a few days earlier, but it was delayed because of the rain and the roads were difficult to travel on."

Chief Zhou replied, "I'm glad you got home safely. You must be tired after the journey. I came here just to see you. We can talk tomorrow. I'll go back first."

Changzhi was indeed a little tired. The road had been rough, and his bones were all broken from the bumps. "I'll take you there, Chief."

Chief Zhou waved his hand, "No need, Mingqing is here to accompany me, you should also go to bed early."

Chang Zhi still insisted on seeing the patriarch out of the yard. When the patriarch walked away, just as he was about to turn around, a horse-drawn carriage came quickly and almost splashed mud on him. He frowned as he watched the carriage stop, and then looked away.

Changzhi returned to the yard. With housekeeper Ding there, everything had been arranged. He wanted to take a bath and prepare to rest.

A carriage stopped at the door of Wang Laosi's house. Wang Rong was here to send his mother and younger brother back. After getting off the carriage, he noticed that there was quite a crowd at the Zhou family's old house. He asked his father who was waiting, "Who from Master Zhou's family has returned?"

Wang Laosi was not happy with his second daughter. His son had only been gone for a few days, and his second daughter rushed to send him back. She looked unhappy, and she didn't care about the bad words she said. In the future, his son would still depend on his second daughter. "The fourth son of Mr. Zhou's family is back. It's Zhou Changzhi. The village has been talking about him these days. I heard that he came back with the county lord. It's only been a few years. I really didn't expect the Zhou family."

Then he stopped talking. He didn't want to say anything more. The more he spoke, the more regretful he felt. Why did he offend the Zhou family so much in the past? If they got along well with each other, why would he have to worry about his son's future?

Wang Rong was no longer emotional when facing her parents. She would not be angry. It was not worth being angry. "Mother and my younger brother have been sent back. I have to go back quickly. I am leaving now."
