Chapter 1104: Zhou family’s kid?

Zhulan came out with the box containing the jade pendant. The emperor and Zhou Shuren were looking at each other. She saw the disgust in the emperor's eyes. Zhou Shuren had a wooden face and no expression, but she could guess that Zhou Shuren must be rolling his eyes in his heart at this moment!

Zhulan put the box on the table with a smile in her eyes, "Your Majesty, the jade pendant has been found."

As he was talking, he opened the box and found the jade pendant inside.

The emperor took out the jade pendant and was silent for a while before pulling off his own jade pendant for comparison. He raised his head and saw Zhou Shuren. Thinking of Zhou Shuren's words, he coughed and silently stuffed his jade pendant into his sleeve.

Eunuch Liu looked left and right, but didn't look at the emperor. But he was thinking in his heart, I have been looking for it for so long, and it is right under my nose, and it has been there for so many years. It's really magical.

The emperor's mind was quick, and he felt something was wrong. Zhou Shuren didn't know the origin of the jade pendant. Zhou Shuren's reaction couldn't be false, so he had to ask carefully, "Where did this jade pendant come from?"

Zhou Shuren looked at his daughter-in-law. He didn't spend much time with his mother, but his daughter-in-law was always by her side. He didn't know as much as Zhulan.

The emperor followed her gaze and said, "Yang Shuren, please sit down too."

Zhulan took the seat graciously. She didn't leave just now because she wanted to eat her own melon. "Your Majesty, this is a jade pendant left by my mother-in-law."

The emperor looked at the jade pendant of a woman from the legitimate family, took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Shuren's face again, turned his head, and said, "Go on."

Zhulan had just found the jade pendant and was recalling her memories carefully. They were all about her grandmother. She remembered a lot, but her original body listened to her grandmother too much and didn't need to use her brain much. She didn't remember much, so she didn't remember much. "At that time, my grandmother got sick and passed away in a hurry. She didn't explain clearly and held the jade pendant unwillingly. We didn't dare to touch the jade pendant in these years, for fear of not knowing whether it was good or bad."

The emperor thought of various possibilities, such as the Rong family wanted to live a peaceful life, so they concealed their surnames, but he never thought that they did not explain clearly. It was hard to say, "Nothing was explained?"

Zhulan nodded, "Yes, it took some time to find the jade pendant. My mother-in-law was a little excited when she grabbed the jade pendant and died with her eyes open."

I just recalled it carefully again, and it was true. The old lady was not willing to die, and she didn't want to close her eyes.

Zhulan couldn't stop complaining. It was such a big deal and she really couldn't sleep a wink. The war had just ended at that time. The old lady was so unlucky.

The emperor was speechless for a moment, and then he immediately thought of himself. He was not young anymore. What if he didn't finish explaining it? No, no, he still had to be prepared. "Shu Ren, what's your mother's name?"

Zhou Shuren, "Sixth Lady."

She didn't even have a surname, which showed that her surname was hidden. What he remembered most was that people in the village called her mother Zhou Liu Niang, with her husband's surname added.

The emperor was also recalling in his mind the sixth legitimate daughter of the Rong family. No, no, there was no sixth legitimate daughter. In his memory, there were only fifth daughters. He thought of the coffin carried into the capital and touched the jade pendant. This was the hidden legitimate branch of his grandfather.

The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren expectantly, "Do you know anything else?"

Zhou Shuren thought hard about his memories. This knockoff had to think hard. "My father told me that when he found my mother, she was ill. Later, she recovered. My father was not in good health again, so my mother stayed and they got married."

The emperor frowned. The fake belly in the coffin was made to prevent the museum from being opened, but it was not discovered. The clothes and pillows were all torn and rotten. The child, there was a living child, staring at Zhou Shuren, "When were you born?"

Zhou Shuren exclaimed, what's the problem?

It was the first time that Zhulan had eaten the watermelon so closely, and her eyes widened. Oh, no way Zhou Shuren’s surname isn’t Zhou, and he’s not from the Zhou family!

Zhou Shuren felt his wife's gossiping eyes and rolled his eyes in his heart. He could still enjoy watching the show at this time, but he didn't feel good because the show was about him. "Your Majesty, my father's health was not good, and it was difficult for him to have an heir. I was born a year after we got married. At that time, people in the village said that it was our ancestors who blessed our lineage. Because my father had difficulty in having an heir, and I was the only child, my lineage was targeted. Fortunately, I worked hard."

The Emperor calculated Zhou Shuren's age and found that he was much younger than him. Even though the Crown Prince was not as old as Zhou Shuren's eldest son, who made him act stupid at a young age and get married late?

Zhulan twitched her lips, calmly stopped watching the show, and finally interrupted, "People in the village say that my husband looks a lot like my father-in-law."

So there is really no melodrama, no conspiracy. My father-in-law's branch of family is going to be extinct, and my father-in-law will not raise a baby for someone else.

The emperor's eyes fell on Zhou Shuren's wife. "I heard that Yang Shuren is very good at painting people. Please paint one for me."

Zhulan knew that she was going to paint her mother-in-law, which was a bit difficult. "I can't guarantee that the painting will be like her. My mother-in-law passed away a few years ago."

The emperor said he understood and "Just do your best."

Zhulan got up to paint the portrait. This was really difficult. The feeling of being cheated was really too long ago. She was still fake, her memory was just so-so, and she was hesitant in some places when she started to paint.

In Zhoujia Village, Chang Zhi watched the coffins being buried one after another, and his heart, which had been vigilant all along, finally settled down. This year, his heart had been unsettled, and now it was beating wildly.

When Chief Zhou saw that the body had been buried, he withdrew his gaze and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? I heard that King Liang wanted to open your grandmother's coffin?"

Chang Zhi's face darkened again. "I don't know either. When King Liang saw the patterns carved on my grandmother's coffin, he wanted to take the coffin away. I said to open the coffin, but King Liang didn't say anything. However, I think King Liang's job was to find someone. Maybe it was my grandmother."

Patriarch Zhou was a little dumbfounded. He thought of all kinds of possibilities, and even conspiratorially believed that King Liang and Zhou Shuren had a grudge and wanted to destroy the feng shui of the Zhou family. Now, "Your grandmother was indeed strange in her old age, and she seldom left the yard."

Changzhi asked quietly, "Chief, who carved the patterns on my grandpa and grandma's coffins?"

Changzhi is too young and he knows nothing.

The clan leader knew, "Your grandpa's coffin was carved by your grandma. Her coffin was already prepared, so she must have carved it herself."

Chang Zhi was confused and felt that his grandmother was full of mysteries. Hiding a box under a tombstone was not something that an ordinary person could do.

The clan leader saw that Changzhi didn't say anything, but he was anxious, fearing that the entire Zhou clan would be finished, so he wanted to ask more, "What is King Liang's attitude?"

Changzhi thought about it and said, "Maybe it's pretty good?"

The clan leader said, "...speak more carefully."

Chang Zhi said, "In fact, I was quite presumptuous at that time, and some of the things I said deserved a beating. King Liang, well, King Liang is not polite to anyone, so he was quite patient with me at that time, and finally left without saying anything."
