Chapter 1151 Earl

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Ah, yes, I call you Fourth Uncle."

Xiao Qing looked at Zhou Shuren deeply and turned back stiffly. However, the officials around him heard Xiao Qing's words clearly, and then they reacted and stared at Zhou Shuren in shock.

Zhou Shuren looked at the officials nearby who all changed their expressions. He could guess what was in their minds. He thought Zhou Shuren was a poor little person who was not well-known in the family. Unexpectedly, he was the hidden boss.

Then Zhou Shuren felt bad. Why were all the officials staring at him?

When Prince Liang looked at Zhou Shuren, he wanted to roll his eyes and hold his breath.

King Qi narrowed his eyes and said to King Liang, "You found it out at that time."

Prince Liang smiled and said, "Ah, but my father won't allow me to say it."

King Chu, "......."

He silently calculated how many times he had offended Zhou Shuren, and it seemed like quite a lot.

The most shocked was Yao Wenqi. Yao Wenqi covered his chest. There were real living people in the Rong family. The Yao family genealogy was fake. The surviving people in the Rong family were legitimate children. Yao Wenqi arrived a little late and didn't know that Zhou Shuren called him fourth uncle.

Yao Wenqi finally understood why the emperor had summoned him to court. The emperor was waiting for him here. He raised his head and met the emperor's gaze. As a direct descendant who had escaped in those years and now of this age, he must be very clear about how the Rong family was exterminated.

Yao Wenqi's heart was pounding and his head was buzzing.

The emperor was very satisfied with Yao Wenqi's change of expression. He coughed, and Eunuch Liu shouted for silence, and the hall became quiet.

The Emperor continued, "The Rong family is not the only one alive, my fourth uncle. There is also my sixth aunt, Rong Ying, and finally my youngest uncle's lineage, whose only son is still alive and has a grandson."

The ministers understood. Zhou Shuren's surname was Zhou, and Zhou Shuren called Rong Yuyin his fourth uncle, so Zhou Shuren's mother was Rong Ying. As for the emperor's uncle's lineage, the ministers thought in their hearts that the Rong family was amazing. With so many noble families and the royal family's pursuit and blockade, so many direct descendants were still able to survive. It was amazing.

Yao Wenqi's pupils dilated and he felt like he was having trouble breathing. So many people were still alive, and thinking about the Rong family's counterattack in the past, his heart ached even more.

Prince Liang was stunned. His father actually found it. Well, if he hadn’t found it, his father wouldn’t have made it public for safety reasons.

The Emperor said, "Shu Ren, step forward."

Zhou Shuren walked forward under everyone's gaze. Fortunately, he was used to being noticed. Those gazes were too complicated. There was jealousy, envy, and all kinds of emotions.

Wang Ju was stunned. He was shocked that his best friend had hidden such a big thing from him.

Grandpa Wang's eyes were filled with surprise. From the beginning, he had his eyes on the younger generation for the marriage, and it felt like he was betting on a great prize. Later, Zhou Shuren was promoted step by step to become an important official. He felt that he had good vision just by thinking about having one more drink. Now there was a big surprise waiting for him!

Yao Wenqi clutched his chest and stared at Zhou Shuren. He was not stupid and had not noticed Xiao Qing's words just now. Now that Zhou Shuren came forward, he understood everything. Why did King Liang go to Zhoujia Village? This was the secret that he had not found out.

Zhou Shuren noticed Yao Wenqi's gaze, turned around, smiled, and pissed off the old guy.

Yao Wenqi was really mad. Ever since he met Zhou Shuren, he had never had an easy time. As he listed all the troubles he had with Zhou Shuren, Yao Wenqi felt heavy in his chest, but he still had to hold on.

The Emperor continued, "The Rong family is my maternal family. I was able to survive the war with the support of the Rong family. I have been searching for them for many years, and finally I don't have to go to see my maternal family with regrets. The Rong family's contributions are engraved in my heart. I also remember Zhou Shuren's contributions..."

Then he listed in detail the emperor's undisclosed achievements. Zhou Shuren listened quietly. In the past, he could not bear so many achievements because without the support of his family, he was a sitting duck. It was not good to be hated too much.

That’s not necessary now, as we have the Emperor as our backer, and we also have the Rong family.

Finally, the emperor said, "The Rong family has helped me a lot. I feel guilty about it. The construction of Rong Garden will continue. My uncle's family did not come today. You will know after the decree is announced."

Eunuch Liu already had three imperial edicts in his hands. He announced the edicts, conferring the title of Marquis on Yu Yin and bestowing him the title of Marquis An Ning.

The imperial edict regarding Zhou Shuren mentioned something like "he is my loyal follower" and all of them mentioned his merits. Zhou Shuren was also awarded the title of earl, but not a special title.

At the end, there was a big drama. Shi Qing was unable to get up, and the emperor did not allow Shi Qing to attend the court, let alone Shi Huai. However, he gave the title of Marquis to Shi Qing directly. Shi Huai got nothing, and was directly skipped over Shi Huai. He should have been a Duke, but he was demoted one level after skipping a generation.

Zhou Shuren was really surprised to get the title. He thought it would just be a big house, but he never expected that the surprise was here.

As for Shi Qing's imperial edict, Zhou Shuren looked at the emperor and thought of the gold in the warehouse. Oh, he was an insider.

There is too much to think about in Shi Qing's imperial edict, it involves the treasury and Shi Huai.

Yu Yun had calculated many things, but he did not expect that the emperor would bypass Shi Huai and offer him a title. He was given the title of marquis, but he knew that the emperor would not give him the title of duke because he was going to be the grandson of Shu Ren.

Yu Yin was a little unsure whether the emperor knew the secret of the Rong family.

Shi Qing's name was quite unfamiliar to some ministers because Shi Qing was not prominent in the Hanlin Academy. In addition, since Zhang Yang had become honest, Shi Qing disappeared from the sight of the ministers.

Now that they suddenly heard about it, not many people reacted, but that doesn't mean there was no reaction. There was another round of discussion. It was really unexpected. People had already imagined all kinds of twists and turns in the Rong family's escape.

Yao Wenqi was greatly shocked this time. He didn't think about his own legitimate daughter, but only thought that it was Shi Qing. Then he tasted blood in his mouth. After he realized that his legitimate daughter was married to Shi Qing, Yao Wenqi's eyes were particularly bright.

The emperor saw it all clearly, with a look of sarcasm in his eyes, "Back then, the Rong family was wiped out, and I was young and trapped, unable to protect myself."

The discussions in the court have quieted down!

The emperor smiled, "After finding the people of the Rong family, I learned the whole story of the extermination of the family and some of the truth. Yao Wenqi, the Yao family was once a subsidiary of the Rong family. Oh, it should be a retainer, a retainer who supported the family all the way up. He knows the Rong family very well. Do you have anything to say?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Yao Wenqi. Although the past grievances were brought up again because of Rongyuan, it was too long ago and all traces were erased. Some of the big families had some thoughts but would not say much.

The rest is unknown, but who is not a fox who can stand in the court? The emperor's words are too suggestive. Look at the newly-minted Marquis An Ning. This is a big drama. It turns out that the arrogant Yao family was supported by the Rong family. The Rong family was destroyed, and the Yao family became strong. They betrayed their master!
