Chapter 1214 King Qi
The next morning, there was still no morning court because the prince had to take care of the emperor who was still in a coma.
The Zhou Mansion should also keep quiet. Rong Enqing's affairs still have some impact on the Zhou family. If the royal family hates someone, they will remember it for the rest of their lives.
Zhou Shuren couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to. Fortunately, Lord Xiao had always delegated power to him, and the Ministry of Revenue was under his control. In addition, Lord Xiao still supported him, so no one in the Ministry of Revenue dared to talk about him.
Moreover, at this time, many families were only concerned about themselves.
The Ministry of Rites and Chang Yi were not having an easy time, especially after the result of Rong Enqing came out. He was executed three days later without even waiting for the emperor to wake up.
Chang Yi was very high profile in the Ministry of Rites. Although his official position was low, he got a good job. Many people were jealous of him, especially those who did not respect Chang Yi in the first place.
"I am waiting for Lord Zhou to be exiled. I wonder if Zhou Changyi can continue to work in the Ministry of Rites without his father."
Another person laughed and said, "Without his father, if he stayed in the Ministry of Rites."
"Haha, you're right. Without his father, he can only go away."
Gu Zhuomin kept looking at Zhou Changyi. The smile on this man's face never changed. He could still smile now. He was a man with deep scheming.
Gu Zhuomin has seen many smiling tigers along the way, and smiling tigers are the most vengeful.
Changyi had no intention of disturbing him at all, he just listened quietly. He had to listen so that he could remind himself that he was indeed not outstanding and currently he really relied on his father, but he would work hard so that in the future when people mentioned him, they would not refer to him as Lord Zhou's second son, but rather that Lord Zhou was Zhou Changyi's father.
Changyi waited until the people in front of him left before he came out.
Gu Zhuomin said, "Don't worry about it. They are just jealous of you. Lord Zhou will not be implicated."
He really thought so. He felt that Lord Zhou was not a simple person. As long as Lord Zhou was stable, the Zhou family would be fine. He had not forgotten Lord Zhou's achievements, which were all real.
Chang Yi, "When did you see that I cared? I just wanted to listen more to clear my mind."
Gu Zhuomin, "......."
Chang Yi smiled again, "By the way, remember who talked about my father. This is a rare opportunity, I have to remember more. Not everyone can talk about my father."
He doesn't get angry when people mention him, because he is indeed eye-catching and blocks the way for many people, but he gets angry when people mention his father, because he will remember these people for the rest of his life.
Gu Zhuomin, "......."
So those who think Zhou Changyi is thick-skinned are blind!
At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren looked at Lord Xiao speechlessly, "Lord, I have already drunk a pot of tea. What do you want to say?"
Xiao Qing, "I just want to see how stable you are. Seeing you stable will make me stable."
Zhou Shuren, "Your Excellency is joking. I am also very panicked."
Xiao Qingcai didn't believe Zhou Shuren's lies, "Lord Rong En is going to be beheaded, are you really not in a hurry?"
Zhou Shuren, "It's no use for me to be anxious. This is a serious crime to harm the emperor. I have no way to do anything. The only thing I can protect right now is my own family."
After Xiao Qing delegated power to Zhou Shuren, he became a mascot in the Ministry of Revenue. As he delegated power, the emperor no longer talked to him about important matters. Currently, he was able to remain stable because he was able to observe Zhou Shuren's peace of mind. "You should also be careful recently."
Zhou Shuren felt that he had a very difficult time. There were too many old foxes around him, especially Lord Xiao, who he spent every day with. He was also grateful to Lord Xiao. "Sir, I will be fine."
That was all he could say.
Xiao Qing's eyes lit up a little, "Yeah."
In Prince Qi's mansion, Princess Qi frowned as she looked at the prince who walked in. Then she felt something was wrong and squinted her eyes. "Oh, the prince still remembered to come back."
King Qi's eyes widened, "How did you find out?"
Unfortunately, he still wanted to verify it. He heard the lie that the prince noticed the problem at first sight, but he didn't believe it, so he came out of the palace and went inside to look for the princess.
Princess Qi was unwilling to speak. She said, "I really like you, so I know everything you do, your little habits, your favorite food, your favorite accessories, etc."
Princess Qi felt that she was the worst. She shouldn't have exposed the fake assassin and brought trouble upon herself.
King Qi was unwilling to accept this, "Tell me, how did you find out?"
Princess Qi pointed at the door and closed her eyes, "Get lost."
King Qi's face darkened. "Your temper is really getting worse and worse. You even dare to scold me."
Princess Qi was upset, annoyed that she was still thinking about Prince Qi. Now she felt like her thoughts were being exposed. She suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "What do you think? Divorce me?"
Prince Qi was stunned. He felt wronged because the princess was angry and embarrassed. He finally returned home, but the princess did not welcome him. He was so disappointed that he was still thinking about the princess while he was away and chose a gift to bring back.
Princess Qi took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. "There are so many women in the backyard who miss you. If you don't come back, people will spread the news that Prince Qi has a hidden illness."
Prince Qi pursed his lips, held the fan and looked deeply at Princess Qi.
After Prince Qi left, Princess Qi was a little absent-minded, and then she sneered. She was actually happy that the prince returned safely.
The Ronghou Mansion was sealed, and Rong Enqing's title of marquis was gone. The only thing to be thankful for was that Rong Enqing was given the title of marquis.
The property of the Marquis' Mansion has not been confiscated. Now the Mansion is moving. Rong Yuyun has sent a message, saying that if the Zhou Mansion does not interfere, he will be enough.
At the gate of Ronghou Mansion, many people stopped to check.
Rong Enqing was in the teahouse which could see the Marquis' Mansion, watching the boxes being moved out one by one. Although it was fake, the process was real and Rong Enqing did not move his eyes. He wanted to remind himself that it was no use having enormous wealth, it would be too easy for the royal family to take it back.
Yao Zheyu was also nearby and clenched his fists. Rong Enqing felt very wronged and was taken advantage of. Even if the prince knew about it, Rong Enqing would still be sentenced to death. As for him, he has not jumped out yet.
At the Zhou family, Zhulan comforted her daughters-in-law and said to the young lady, "Spend more time talking to Yao Yao recently."
"Mother, you must keep an eye on the maids and servants around Yao Yao."
Zhulan, "Don't worry."
Xue Han said: "I don't know when Rong Chuan will come back."
She would not feel at ease until Rongchuan came back.
At sea, Rongchuan was looking into the distance with a telescope. Now the ships had been assembled, just waiting for the signal to attack the island. Rongchuan put down the telescope and looked at the shells on the ships.
Rongchuan was shocked. His father wanted to destroy the Zhang family's lair. With so many shells bombarding them, no matter how strong the defense was, it would be useless.
General Hou came out and said, "Your Highness, do not leave me alone for the next few days."
Rongchuan, "......"
Are they just going to leave him like this? He had already given up the idea of going to the island, and now he was only worried about whether he would be punished if he returned to Beijing!
General Hou was also very confused. Every time the emperor sent a message, he would mention Prince Ning and always reminded him to keep a close eye on Prince Ning. This time, the date for attacking the island was set, and the emperor even threatened him that if anything happened to Prince Ning, he would be held accountable.
