Chapter 1240 Stay

Together with the gifts from my grandfather, and what my mother collected from my father in the past two years, she gave them all to him.

He is also a person who likes to save up his family fortune, so he is extremely rich.

As for the female members, it was the first time for Xue Han to organize such a large banquet. All the famous people in the capital were present today. Even though Xue Han was calm, she was still young and a little frightened. She glanced at her mother from time to time, and only when she met her mother's encouraging gaze did she relax a little.

The Crown Princess observed carefully, and saw all the little movements of her brother and sister-in-law. She couldn't help but look at Yang, who had been talked about recently. She thought to herself that Yang didn't look like she was from the countryside. Even if the Yang family later became military generals, it couldn't change Yang's status when she got married.

The Crown Princess couldn't figure it out and could only guess that it must have been Lord Zhou's mother, Miss Rong, who taught her later.

The Crown Princess thought of foreign knowledge, and she also found a few books to read, but unfortunately she had no foundation and could not figure it out on her own.

Zhulan has a good position. She can feel jealous eyes and contemptuous eyes from time to time. Her background cannot be changed, and many mistresses still look down on her.

Zhulan wanted to laugh. She looked down on her but was jealous of her at the same time. Suddenly, she laughed out loud.

Li sat behind her mother and asked, "Mother, what's so happy about you?"

Zhu Lan frowned, "I was thinking, your father is making people hate him outside, and I'm also making a lot of people hate me among the women in the back house."

Li, "......."

She really admired her mother-in-law's mentality. Looking at the ladies who had poor eyesight after hearing the voice, her mother-in-law's smile became more and more brilliant.

Zhou Shuren didn't know that his daughter-in-law was stirring up hatred at the women's banquet. He, on the other hand, was full of hatred for the rich, and it seemed like he was bringing all of it back home.

Rongchuan was already bleeding, and when he noticed the look in his father-in-law's eyes, he felt a chill on his back, "......."

The prince also saw it and fell silent. Lord Zhou was becoming more and more like a Pi Xiu. It was now more difficult for him to withdraw money from the Ministry of Accounts than before. He was an ambitious man and had already thought about practicing Tai Chi with Zhou Shuren in the future for military expenses.

The banquet had not yet ended when the prince received the news. His face darkened slightly. Although the change was not significant, people who were familiar with him knew that he was unhappy.

After the banquet was over, Zhang Yang got the news that he had heard the jailers discussing the grand occasion of the Qin Palace today. Out of hatred for Rong Chuan, he actually committed suicide in prison.

Rongchuan was stunned when he heard the news. When Rongchuan came back, the palace coup was over. Then he was very busy and had long forgotten about Zhang Yang. Even if Zhang Yang wanted to hate him, he really didn't care.

The prince was not happy. Everything was perfect when Rongchuan returned to the royal family, but then Zhang Yang was thrown directly into a mass grave by a straw curtain.

When King Liang heard this, he just smiled. He was injured by Zhang Yang, but he was too proud to do such a mean thing as to mistreat the loser. The man was dead, so he was dead.

After the heyday of the Qin Palace ended, the foreigners who were brought back from the island were convicted according to the newly-promulgated law for deliberately spreading ulcers and completely covering up their crimes.

The prince used tough measures to tell all foreigners that here they could only abide by the laws of the court.

Even the foreigner who shouted in the cell that he was the duke's son still escaped.

The evidence is conclusive. Whether the foreigners know it or not, they know it clearly in their hearts. Some foreigners shouted to sever diplomatic ties and wanted to unite with other countries. Unfortunately, the prince adopted the method of pulling some of them under his control. As a result, the diplomatic missions of various countries, which were not united to begin with, no longer had any cohesion at all.

Then the new law was vigorously promoted. The foreign officials who had been under house arrest returned to the Ministry of Rites, where they continued to do translation work. Legal booklets and picture albums were distributed.

Zhou Shuren was also particularly happy to transfer money.

Rong Chuan was very busy, and only sat down to rest after he came to collect the money. Zhou Shuren felt sorry for his son-in-law, "It's only been a few days, how come you seem to have lost weight?"

Rong Chuan whispered, "Brother Crown Prince is using me as three people."

Zhou Shuren, "The prince recognized your ability. You are doing very well in the publicity department."

Zhou Shuren did not give any support on this point. He just watched Rongchuan do his job on his own the whole time. Now the Propaganda Department was built up by Rongchuan bit by bit, and he must be praised.

Rongchuan was very happy to receive the compliment from his father-in-law. If he had a tail, it would have been curled up. "I am able to have the ability I have now, thanks to my father's teachings."

Zhou Shuren, "And the Emperor and Lord Rong, they also taught you a lot."

Rongchuan smiled and shook his head. The teachings were different. His father-in-law taught him how to make a living, his father taught him how to be a good prince and a good minister, and his third uncle taught him social skills.

Rong Chuan continued, "Dad, I won't stay any longer. I'm going back first."

"Okay, you should also take more rest."

At the Zhou Mansion, Zhulan received a letter from Xuzhou saying that everything was fine at Changlian Mansion and that there was no need to worry at home.

Zhulan was finally relieved. Although she heard Zhou Shuren say that Xuzhou was fine, she was still worried because she hadn't received any letter from Dong.

Then, as she continued to read the letter, Zhulan discovered that Dong's sister-in-law had actually arrived in Xuzhou.

Although Dong didn't mention it in the letter, she still guessed that Dong's sister-in-law must not have told Dong when she went to Xuzhou. Zhulan muttered, "The Dong family really cares about Chuchu's pregnancy."

Li was also diligent in receiving letters from her mother's family and knew a lot about the Dong family. "I heard from my mother that the Dong family is now in a state of chaos and Mr. Dong can no longer control it. The other branches feel that only the eldest branch has taken advantage and has been causing trouble for the past two years."

Zhulan really didn't know, "Mrs. Dong didn't say."

Then she paused. This was a shameful thing in her mother's family. How could Dong possibly tell it?

Li said, "Mom, our family has changed so much that the other branches of the Dong family won't be able to take advantage of us. The Dong family will only become more troublesome. I'd rather just split up the family."

Zhulan, "Do you think it's a good idea to split up the family?"

Mrs. Li nodded. "I think it's good to split up the family. After the split, the other branches of the Dong family won't get any advantage. My third brother and his wife know this."

Zhulan smiled, "You see clearly."

Li, "I just think that my third brother's wife is a smart person. It can be seen from the fact that the Dong family has not come to the capital in the past few years."

She thinks her third brother's wife is amazing!

Zhulan is not worried about Dong. Mrs. Song represents her and will take good care of Dong.

In a blink of an eye, another five days had passed. Some delegations from various countries got what they wanted and left, while others left unwillingly.

What surprised Zhou Shuren was, "Isn't Prince Joey going back to his country?"

This one actually stayed!

Prince Joey smiled shyly, "I like your country, so I want to stay longer. Your Highness the Crown Prince also invited me to stay and attend the coronation ceremony, so I stayed."

Zhou Shuren listened to the translation and felt that this sentence contained a lot of information. "Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince keep you here?"

Joey smiled and nodded, "Yes, I may come to visit you in the future. I'm sorry to bother you."

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard and looked deeply at Prince Joey. "Since His Royal Highness invites you to stay, I will naturally welcome you."

These two ambitious people are going to cause trouble!

Zhou Shuren thought about the coronation ceremony and counted the days. There were only a few days left.
