Chapter 1146: Living a Noisy Life

The eunuch held the imperial edict in his hand and said, "You will know after hearing the edict, my lord."

After listening to this, Zhou Shuren understood that the emperor wanted to promote the Ningguo Mansion. Ning Zhiqi was transferred from his idle position to the Ministry of Commerce of the Ministry of Revenue. When the commercial cloth is distributed next year, the official position of the Ministry of Commerce will be clearer. Although it seems that he has been demoted now, he will be promoted after next year. It is better to get familiar with it now than to be unfamiliar with it and unable to get started next year.

The eunuch continued, "The prince sent a message to you, Your Excellency, hoping that you can have someone take care of Master Ning more often."

Zhou Shuren, "I understand."

Zhou Shuren waited for his father-in-law to leave, and then said to Ning Zhiqi, "Don't be nervous. I'll have someone take you to get familiar with the Ministry of Revenue first, and then go to the Ministry of Commerce and have someone take you there."

Ning Zhiqi was really nervous. He was not talented enough and thought he would have to stay in an idle position forever. He didn't care. He had a title anyway. Now he was suddenly able to make progress. He was excited and nervous at the same time. "Thank you, sir."

Zhou Shuren looked at Ning Zhiqi. It was really hard for Ning Xu to take care of him. Ning Zhiqi was of the same kind as the eldest boss in the family, but because of their different status, he was much higher than Chang Li.

Zhou Shuren called someone, and after Ning Zhiqi left, Zhou Shuren shook his head.

Ning Zhiqi relaxed after going out. Lord Zhou is the father of his younger brother and sister-in-law, and the prince told him to listen to Lord Zhou. In addition, his grandfather and third uncle have always respected Lord Zhou. He was as nervous as when he met a teacher when he was a child.

He was no longer nervous. He had time to visit the Ministry of Revenue, which had the most officials and was the busiest. He frowned, but then relaxed. His uncle had been with him for a long time, so he still had some confidence.

A few days later, Zhoujia Village already knew the list of the gold medalists. The good news arrived at Zhoujia Village, and Patriarch Zhou and others left, muttering the words "prayer for the ancestors' blessings". God knows, if the ancestral tomb of Shu Ren's branch was moved, he would be afraid that the feng shui would be ruined, and he was deeply afraid that Shu Ren's branch would be unlucky in the future.

Now we can finally rest assured. There is another second place in the provincial examination. Unfortunately, he is not the first place, but he has the foundation of being the second place in the provincial examination. In addition, Zhou Shuren was the second place and worked his way up step by step. In the heart of the old patriarch, the second place is actually better than the first place.

The old patriarch was really happy, as another one of them passed the imperial examination, which was a great happy event for the clan. As for Ming Qing not passing the exam, the patriarch did not care, as he thought there would be opportunities in the future.

The old patriarch was so overjoyed that he didn't wake up all night and passed away.

It had been several days since Zhulan received the urgent letter. After reading the letter, she felt upset. Another person she had just met was gone. She respected the old patriarch of the family.

Zhulan asked the housekeeper to instruct her to be a vegetarian for the next few days.

Zhou Shuren found out when he came back that night and was silent for a while. "He has no regrets either."

Zhulan, "Yes, no regrets."

It was a rare occasion for the couple not to chat tonight. They lay quietly, recalling every little detail. They didn't know when they fell asleep, and they didn't feel very energetic when they woke up in the morning.

Zhao was a careful person, fearing that her mother-in-law would think too much and affect her health. "Mom, spring is coming soon. How about we stay at the farm for a few days?"

She had long discovered that her mother-in-law was particularly reluctant to go out. It was not because it was unnecessary, but because her mother-in-law was unwilling to step out of the main courtyard.

Zhulan was somewhat tempted, but with Mingjing by her side and the unknown danger, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't go."

Zhao was about to say something, but Su Xuan interrupted, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. Look at the vegetables my sister-in-law planted last year. Do you want to try some?"

Zhulan smiled and said, "It's still a little early. Okay, I know you guys are worried about me. Don't worry, I'm fine."

After talking for a while, Zhao and Su Xuan came out. Zhao was puzzled, "Why is my sister-in-law holding me back?"

Su Xuan whispered, "Second sister-in-law forgot about the assassination? It would be better for parents not to leave the capital."

Zhao reacted and was frightened. Fortunately, she didn't convince her mother-in-law. Her father-in-law was very nervous about her mother-in-law. If something really happened when she left Beijing because of what she said, not to mention her father-in-law, even her husband would not forgive her.

Su Xuan looked at her second sister-in-law, "Second sister-in-law, why do I feel like you've gained a lot of weight?"

Zhao, "Really? Maybe it's because your second brother is at home. I ate so well that I don't want to worry about anything."

Su Xuan, "That's not as obvious as this month."

Her attention has always been on her husband, so she didn't pay much attention to her second sister-in-law, but she has gained a lot of weight compared to during the Chinese New Year.

Zhao was stunned for a moment, then she touched her waist and face, her face froze, and then her eyes widened, "I need a doctor."

Su Xuan was smart. Seeing her sister-in-law covering her belly with both hands, she understood, "It's time to see a doctor."

An hour later, Zhulan got the news that Zhao had been pregnant for more than two months. She came to the second room in surprise, "You have been a mother several times, how come you didn't notice it?"

Zhao touched her belly and said, "My period comes regularly, every time, so I didn't notice it."

Zhulan asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Zhao blushed, she was having a miscarriage. "I need to take some medicine to keep the pregnancy going."

Bamboo orchid, "."

Oh, what a fuss! This couple really has a good relationship and they both want to have a child.

Zhao's face flushed, she was completely embarrassed this time. Thinking of the embarrassment of her fourth brother's wife just now, she felt like her whole body was burning. "Mom."

Zhu Lan said calmly, "You know what's going on in your mind, and I don't have anything to say. I'll go back first."

Zhao let out a breath and fanned herself with the fan until the temperature on her face came down. After feeling embarrassed, she was still happy, "My child."

In Xuzhou, Dong had also sent away the doctor. She was pregnant again. She and her husband were still careful to avoid it, thinking that the child was still young and wanted to wait until he was older.

The old woman was delighted, "This time it must be the young master, let's see who else is talking nonsense."

Mrs. Dong no longer cared about the gossip. Ever since she severed ties with the Zhao family, Zhao Ji's mother did not pass away after the New Year. The old lady was a nagging person, and she was old, so she didn't want to really take it seriously. The more she talked about it, the less serious it would be, so she was too lazy to open her mouth.

Mrs. Dong touched her belly. She also hoped it was a son. Although she still hoped there would be less gossip and trouble if she had a husband, she said, "Bring me a pen and paper. I want to write a letter back to the capital."

Inside the palace in the capital, the people sent by the prince to Pingzhou have sent a letter back, saying that the old man from the Shi family has been found and has already set off back to the capital.

The Emperor and the Crown Prince looked at each other and were both silent. They would only bring people back if they discovered something. The letter also said that they would pick someone up on the way back and it would take some time.

The emperor put down the letter and said, "Send someone to tell Yu Yin, forget it, let's wait until we get to the capital and confirm it before we tell him."

The Emperor then asked the Crown Prince, "Is Zhang Yang still making trouble in the palace?"

The prince said, "Well, continue to mess around."

The emperor didn't believe that Zhang Yang knew his life story and was so disheartened that he spent his days in chaos. He didn't believe that Zhang Yang didn't hate him, so he said, "Have someone keep a closer eye on him."

The prince will not take it lightly, "Yes."
