Chapter 1105: I'm Going to Get Beaten
Patriarch Zhou pondered and then laughed, "It seems your grandmother is of extraordinary status."
Otherwise, how could he be let go just like that? He was a living prince, and I would feel at ease.
Changzhi was thinking about the box at home. He was eager to open it, as he knew the answer was in the box. Unfortunately, the thought just came to his mind and he gave up. He decided to leave it to his father!
Zhou family, the emperor listened to Zhou Shuren telling stories about his childhood. Zhou Shuren's words were all processed. The original body's talent was really not as good as his. Although there were reasons for the war, he still beautified it. Anyway, what he said before is what he says now.
Zhou Shuren also knew that the emperor didn't want to listen to him bragging about himself. He talked more about his dead mother, his literacy and so on. In fact, there was nothing new. In Zhou Shuren's memory, his mother was not a talkative person.
The emperor listened and found it less interesting than Zhou Shuren's boasting about himself.
Zhulan's painting was finished, and Eunuch Liu quickly handed it to the emperor, who took it and looked at it carefully.
Zhulan looked up guiltily. What could she say? The painting was beautified and her mother-in-law was made to look younger. The emperor didn't want to see an old lady, so she made it easier for him to identify her.
Zhou Shuren knew his wife very well, and he felt guilty when he saw her, and couldn't help but come over to look at the painting.
The emperor looked away from the portrait and asked Zhou Shuren, "Does it look like it?"
Zhou Shuren was not an original, so he was not sure who asked his wife to draw her too young. But his tone was very firm, "It looks very much like her. My mother looks like this."
Bamboo orchid, "."
If they hadn't come together, she would have believed it by hearing the tone and looked at Zhou Shuren dimly.
Zhou Shuren also looked at his daughter-in-law. The two looked at each other and then looked away guiltily. Anyway, they had already confirmed that it resembled the person. Everyone has preconceived notions. If this painting was taken back to Zhoujia Village and shown to the living elderly people, they would definitely say it resembled the person!
The emperor thought that although she was not a beauty, she was not bad either. However, she was definitely not a legitimate descendant of his grandfather's lineage, so she was from the same clan. The emperor sighed and said, "That's right. If she was too outstanding, it would be difficult to hide. However, the Rong family has good looks. Even if they are not outstanding, they all have this kind of appearance."
Bamboo orchid, "."
Zhou Shuren, "."
Zhulan thought to herself, it wasn't that all the Rong family members had such good looks, she just beautified them, made their eyes bigger, and changed their mouths and noses. Well, of course, she wasn't sure, so she made it look better!
The emperor took the painting and wanted to return to the palace. Such a big discovery was just right for him to let Prince Liang go to Zhoujia Village to investigate, and then check the living people and children in the coffin. The emperor felt relieved that there were still people alive in the Rong family.
Zhou Shuren felt that he had to ask at this time, "Your Majesty, what is the origin of this jade pendant?"
The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren's face and suddenly felt something was wrong. He was silent for a while. "You should be a descendant of the Rong family. I still need to investigate carefully. Just keep this news in your heart and don't tell anyone."
Zhou Shuren was already hated, and if the news leaked out now, he would be hated even more.
Zhou Shuren also knew it, and he smiled dryly, "I know it, I know it."
If he and his wife had not traveled through time, he would have felt that he was avenging the wronged souls of the Rong family by destroying both forces one after another.
Although the emperor disliked Zhou Shuren's appearance, he now had a different kind of intimacy with him. "Well, I'll go back to the palace first. You don't have to go to the Ministry of Revenue. Rest more today."
Zhou Shuren's eyes lit up. This was such a good thing. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
emperor,"."
This tone, is it necessary to be so happy!
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren personally escorted the emperor out. The two stood at the gate of the mansion, looking up at the sky at the same time. After the carriage went far away, they walked back quickly.
After returning to the main courtyard and sending everyone away, Zhulan said, "Oh my god, this melon is really big."
Zhou Shuren, "Don't talk about you. My heart is beating like crazy too. I always think I can fly to heaven in the future."
Zhu Lan chuckled, "Whether you go to heaven or not, you will still work hard for the royal family. Who knows, they will use even more ruthlessness. There is no need to be polite to family members."
Zhou Shuren, ".Suddenly I don't want to analyze my own life experience anymore."
Zhu Lan coughed, "We still have to analyze it. Don't you think the emperor's attitude is wrong? I am sure that the emperor believes that my mother is a member of the Rong family, but he still asked when you were born. What does this mean? There are still members of the Rong family alive!"
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "If only my mother had said a few more words back then, we wouldn't have to guess so much. Forget it, no matter how the emperor investigates, it will only benefit us."
Zhulan hummed, "After this excitement, the excitement is gone. Why does it feel so unreal? Shouldn't we work hard step by step? Why do I feel like I have to achieve it all in one go?"
Zhou Shuren pinched his wife's chubby face and said, "Don't dream. If there are really other living people in the Rong family, it's impossible for us to get them all at once. Don't forget, after investigation, it's only my mother's surname that is Rong. I am a married woman, and my surname is Zhou."
Zhulan thought that it was true. For a married woman, the emperor would prefer to find a pure and legitimate bloodline of the Rong family. "What about Rongyuan?"
Zhou Shuren spread his hands and said, "Since the construction has been suspended due to the drought, we can just wait until we find someone to reproduce the drawings."
Zhulan was still excited, and then clapped her head, "We forgot something very important!"
Zhou Shuren, "I have indeed forgotten."
The two of them were enjoying their food, one enjoying the melon with great satisfaction, while the other was busy thinking and had forgotten about the box his son had mentioned he had found under the tombstone.
Zhu Lan said faintly, "I did remember it, really."
Zhou Shuren smiled, "I remember that, too."
Zhu Lan pushed Zhou Shuren and said, "Go ahead. Chase after the emperor before he gets too far away. I calculated with my fingers and the emperor doesn't need to investigate. The box must have been decrypted."
Zhou Shuren was amused, "Then you calculate, do you think I will be beaten by the emperor?"
Such an important matter, but the couple didn't say a word!
Zhulan, "I don't even need to calculate. I just know that if you don't leave, you will definitely get beaten!"
Zhou Shuren ran away quickly without replying to his wife. His intuition told him that he could not avoid this beating.
Zhulan couldn't stop laughing. She just couldn't understand how Zhou Shuren could run so fast. However, the couple were also curious about the box, but they were worried about letting the servant bring it back, and they couldn't let Shenxing bring it back either. She was the emperor's person, and she knew that her mother-in-law had a secret, but how could she know what the secret was? In the end, they decided to let their son bring it back in person after the provincial examination. This was the only way to be safe.
Zhou Shuren's carriage had already flown back, but he still didn't catch up with the emperor's carriage. He was speechless because it was obvious that the emperor liked to ride in a leisurely carriage.
When they arrived at the palace gate, the general guarding the palace gate asked, "Lord Zhou, you?"
Zhou Shuren, "I want to see the emperor, and I forgot to tell you something important."
Half an hour later, Zhou Shuren arrived at the Zheng Palace. The Emperor asked, "What did you forget to say?"
It doesn’t matter, Zhou Shuren won’t come after me.
Zhou Shuren felt that he would be beaten if he told the truth. "If I tell the truth, can the emperor forgive me? For example, you can punish me with a stick or hit me. I am weak."
The emperor interrupted Zhou Shuren and said, "If you keep talking, everything you say will come true."
"There was a heavy rain in my hometown, and the mountain collapsed near my ancestral grave. My fourth son went up the mountain to check and found a sealed box buried under my father's tombstone. I thought it was my mother who buried it, so I asked my fourth son to take a rural examination and take it back to Beijing. "
emperor,"."
I actually forgot such important news, haha!
