Chapter 1241: Hair

As time goes by, the temperature was a bit hot, but with the arrival of a few rains, the heat is no longer felt. Instead, every rain takes away some of the temperature.

The greenery in the garden had changed color at some point, especially the maple trees, which had turned red. People traveling to and from the capital could see the scenery of the mountains just by opening the curtains of their carriages.

On the way out of the capital, Zhulan opened the carriage curtain, her eyes full of excitement. She almost forgot when she last left the capital. She just looked at her husband leaning in the carriage and said, "You actually got a vacation, and it's a full seven days."

God knows what a big surprise Zhou Shuren gave her yesterday.

Zhou Shuren raised his hand and touched his hair without the official hat. "The hair I saved for a month was not saved in vain."

For the sake of vacation, he had been thinking about how to take a vacation since the palace coup, because he knew that after the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he would not be able to take a long vacation for a year or two, so it would not be in vain that he had been planning for so long.

Zhulan, "I didn't even notice you had your hair falling off!"

Zhou Shuren smiled smugly, "Since I want to hide this from the Emperor and the Crown Prince, I naturally cannot let you know first."

Little by little, he really lost a lot of hair in one month. Fortunately, his hair is thick, otherwise, it would have been gone in the past few years. Oh, I can't think about it!

As for the fact that the emperor later found out it was fake, he was not afraid. Anyway, he did not expect to really deceive the emperor and the prince. He just needed to fool them for a while and make the emperor agree to give him a vacation.

Zhulan lowered the carriage curtain. Just out of the capital, there were a lot of carriages coming and going. Even though the road had been repaired, it still raised a lot of dust. "It feels so good to be out of the capital. Now there is no danger. If you are busy in the future, I can live in the manor by myself for a while."

Zhou Shuren, ".I don't think it's good."

Zhulan smiled with her eyebrows curved, "I feel good, I will enjoy the days ahead."

Those years were so dangerous!

Zhou Shuren snorted, not wanting to abandon the fat old lady who was so carefree and alone with him, and angrily picked up the book and covered his face with it.

Zhulan didn't take it seriously. The old man was getting old and still liked to throw tantrums.

Zhou Shuren waited for a while, then lifted up a corner of the book. Well, his wife didn't mean to coax him. "I'm angry."

"oh."

"The consequences are severe."

"oh."

Zhou Shuren reached out and snatched the apple from his wife's hand, not complaining at all because his wife had just bitten it, and he bit it with a crunching sound thanks to his good teeth. After that, whatever Zhulan wanted to eat, Zhou Shuren would grab it to eat, being extremely childish.

The result was that Zhulan got angry and couldn't help but yell, "Try to stretch out your claws again."

Zhou Shuren quickly retracted his hand that was about to move. Seeing his wife's glare, he was instantly satisfied and laughed.

Zhulan silently recited the Heart Sutra, took a deep breath and told herself, My dear husband, if you beat me to death, I'll be gone!

Under the sinister gaze of his daughter-in-law, Zhou Shuren finally behaved himself!

Jinyan and Shenxing, who were following outside the carriage, looked at each other, both of them had helplessness in their eyes. The Master had been challenging the Mistress in some new ways recently!

In the carriage behind, Changzhong comforted his niece Yuyi, "Don't worry, Mom just wants to beat Dad."

Yuyi’s eyes widened. Grandma was about to beat grandpa, and you’re still okay?

Changzhong had a look of maturity that was not typical for his age. He said quietly, "According to what mom said, dad needs to be punished recently."

Yuyi, "."

She felt that what her uncle said made sense, as her grandfather had been annoying her grandmother quite a lot in recent days.

Inside the palace, the emperor was cracking walnuts and eating them with great relish. From time to time, he glanced at the busy prince, his heart agitated. In the past, he was just like the prince, getting up earlier than a rooster and sleeping later than a dog.

Now looking at the prince like him, why does he feel so comfortable in his heart!

The prince listened to the sound of walnuts being cracked, his face expressionless, but he was gritting his teeth inwardly. His father ate something different every day, and his father, who used to be a little thin, has gained a lot of weight.

The emperor had eaten enough and his mouth was a little thirsty, so he drank the iced juice that Eunuch Liu brought him, "Refreshing."

Prince, "."

This is his biological father. Even after he attained the status of Zen, he is still the emperor. Just looking at his father's current living conditions, he feels that his father will definitely live a long life.

The emperor suddenly said, "Zhou Shuren should have left the capital."

The prince thought of Zhou Shuren's request for leave yesterday with his hair in his hands, and said with a wooden face, "Well, I packed my luggage when I returned home last night."

It is euphemistically called going to the hot spring manor for recuperation.

The emperor sighed twice, "It's hard for him to lose his hair."

At first he thought it was dropped, and he was so scared that he quickly summoned the imperial physician. The imperial physician looked confused, and the emperor knew what was going on.

It's a pity that he has already given him vacation. It's really hard for Zhou Shuren to come up with this idea. If he didn't sympathize with Zhou Shuren's hard work over the years, he would have captured Zhou Shuren long ago.

The prince smiled and said, "Master Zhou has indeed worked hard, and it is only right that you take some time off."

The emperor looked at his eldest son in confusion. Seeing his eldest son's smile, he became a little worried about Zhou Shuren. He would definitely make up for today's holiday in the future.

The emperor stood up and brushed off some walnut crumbs on his body. "I've been very tired lately. I'll leave the palace and the court to you. Your mother and I will go to the manor for a few days. Oh, and let's go to your hot spring manor."

Prince, "."

His father, who eats in front of him in various ways every day and reads travel notes, is actually tired. Isn't he exhausted to death?

And why did he feel that he could no longer keep his hot spring manor?

The emperor said this and left with Eunuch Liu, leaving the prince with only a dashing back. The prince laughed softly, and the eunuchs in the study were trembling with fear!

When Zhulan arrived at the Zhou family's hot spring villa, she didn't feel tired at all. After changing her clothes, she took Zhou Shuren for a walk in the fields.

The rice is ready to be harvested. The streams running through the rice fields are clear, and you can even see schools of finger-sized fish.

Zhulan squatted down and looked carefully. She found some river shrimps. There were quite a lot of them. She could catch one with just her hand. She was very happy. "Look, I caught them."

Zhou Shuren said with a smile on his face, "That's amazing."

Zhulan regretted that she had no tools in her hand, otherwise she would have caught some. "I want to eat river shrimp for lunch."

Qingxue, who was behind him, heard this and signaled another maid to go back and tell the kitchen.

Zhou Shuren responded and then looked at the rice fields. This year was a year of good weather and good harvests, and the fields on his own farm were fertile. However, looking at the rice in the fields, the yield was still not high.

Zhou Shuren and Zhulan hadn't enjoyed such leisure time for a long time. They signaled the girls and Jianyan to stay away from them. They didn't have a clear destination along the way, so they just went wherever they wanted.

Ministry of Revenue, Qiu Yan came here today and found out that Lord Zhou has asked for leave, and it’s a full seven days!

Xiao Qing watched Zhou Shuren leave. The job he was going to take over took a long time. Why did the emperor agree to Zhou Shuren's leave?

In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren and his wife took a nap. There were no endless official duties in the manor, so Zhou Shuren had a particularly good nap.

But after waking up an hour later, Zhou Shuren felt unwell.
