Chapter 1560: Good Marriage

Chang Zhong stared at it, then glared. How lucky was he? It turned out to be a genuine product, and it was estimated to be worth 100 taels.

The fourth prince's eyes widened. "Hey, I've been here so many times, but this is the first time I've seen an item that can be sold for 100 taels. Previously, it was always around 50 taels."

Changzhong was also pleased because of the 100-liang. "What a coincidence, what a coincidence."

The fourth prince nodded in agreement, but envy was still in his eyes, "Another one?"

Changzhong looked at the Fourth Prince and swallowed his words of refusal, "Okay."

Changzhong won two more times in a row. This time he could sell the prize for fifty taels of silver. Changzhong had already planned to buy gifts for his parents.

Winning twice out of three is a very high probability, and then Changzhong was paid attention to.

Changzhong had just returned to Beijing, and the baby fat on his face had faded. In addition, Wu Ming had always been by his side, so he naturally learned Wu Ming's habits. For a moment, no one could tell whose family Changzhong came from.

When people remembered who Changzhong was, they started talking about it, but the Fourth Prince was ignored. It was because he was asked not to reveal his identity after leaving the palace, and he had to keep a low profile.

The women also started talking. Zhang Luo followed her brother to broaden her horizons. After listening to the conversation, Zhang Luo raised her head and looked towards the second floor. "The youngest son of Marquis Zhou."

Master Zhang heard his sister's mumbling, "I just asked, it is indeed the youngest son of Marquis Zhou. It is said that he is very much favored by Marquis Zhou. The name of this young man was given by the retired emperor."

If the timing was not bad, he would have wanted to go up and meet Young Master Zhou, and at the same time he was curious about who was next to Young Master Zhou.

The fourth prince did not bring his eunuch with him, but brought his guards. He did not take the gossip seriously, but whispered, "Are you still holding him?"

Changzhong, "......No."

"Then you help me bet."

Changzhong, "...Okay."

The fourth prince smiled, then pressed the coin five times and won twice. The probability was not small. He made a total of 180 taels. After deducting the 50 taels from five times, there was still 130 taels left. After deducting the first three times, the fourth prince also earned 100 taels.

Changzhong curled his lips and said, "We are attracting too much attention. Can I treat His Highness to a meal?"

The fourth prince said, "I'm welcome then."

Changzhong felt a little sorry for his wallet. It was obvious that they wanted to rip him off.

After the two left, the discussion in the Treasure House became louder. Everyone started talking about the Zhou Hou Mansion, saying how wealthy and prosperous the Zhou Hou Mansion was, and their tone was full of envy.

Zhang Luo held the handkerchief and pulled her brother's sleeve, "Brother, Master Changzhong is not bad."

Master Zhang's eyes widened, "You are older than him."

Although Mr. Zhou is tall, it does not change the fact that his sister is older than him.

Zhang Luo didn't care, "What's wrong with being a few years old? Do you think this is a good marriage?"

Master Zhang has always known that his sister is ambitious, but he never thought she would be so ambitious. If it was back home, he wouldn't care, as his family would take care of everything. But this is the capital, so he shouted, "No more talk."

Changzhong didn't know that he was being missed, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. There were many people in the capital who were thinking about him, and he had no fear as he had his parents around.

The next day, Zhou Shuren took a day off and slept until almost noon. He was a little groggy from his sleep.

Zhulan came in with some refreshing tea, "Wake up."

Zhou Shuren drank his tea and said, "I've been busy and have slept for so long that my head hurts. Is there anyone who wants to visit me today?"

Zhulan, "It's true. Several families who were newly transferred to the capital came to visit you today, but you turned them all down before you got up."

"The gift is confiscated, right?"

"No, I took them all back."

Zhulan has become accustomed to this kind of visit.

Zhou Shuren stood up and said, "Don't bother me if I come to visit you in the future."

He was very annoyed. Ever since the Zhou family was pushed to the opposing side of the Wen family, more people came to seek refuge with them.

Zhulan signaled the maid to bring breakfast over. After breakfast, Steward Ding came in and said, "My Lord, Madam, the Liu family sent a message that Mr. Liu was injured in revenge by wolves on the grassland."

Zhou Shuren, "Why is it so hot that it reaches the wolves?"

"Isn't it normal for wolves to attack humans in order to survive during winter?"

Since we didn't kill them all, it's not surprising that we were retaliated against.

Zhou Shuren asked, "Is the injury serious?"

Steward Ding, "It's not serious, but I want to ask the Marquis to help me get some information."

Zhou Shuren said he understood, and the Liu family could only ask Zhou Ning and his family to help. "Since the news has been sent back, it shouldn't be too serious."

The more serious the situation becomes, the less likely we are to send messages back.

Zhulan thought the same thing and said to Qingxue, "Go pick some herbs and send them over."

Afterwards, he instructed the maid to tell the first wife the news. The news could not be kept secret, so it was better to tell it openly. The more cautious he was, the more likely Liu Jia would imagine it.

After everyone went down, Zhu Lan whispered, "It was not easy for Liu Jia to be pregnant this time."

"It's not that difficult. She's already very happy with all the good food and drink she has."

Zhou Shuren added, "Wu Ming has written to me several times about Mingyun. I thought about it and realized that Wu Ming is right. Letting Wu Ming take care of Mingyun for a few years will help Mingyun grow quickly."

Zhulan hesitated, "Didn't you have plans for Mingyun?"

"Plans cannot keep up with changes. Who could have thought that Wu Ming would ask for permission to go to the grassland? Wu Ming said he could protect Mingyun."

Zhu Lan didn't distrust Wu Ming. He was a big shot. "But would the emperor think too much?"

Zhou Shuren, "We can't avoid the relationship between our two families, so we might as well be open about it. The emperor is still in his prime, so it's not the time to be suspicious."

Zhulan rarely interfered with Sunzi's arrangements. "You should talk to Mingyun."

Zhou Shuren said quietly, "A big family and a big business."

I have so many children and grandchildren that I have no time to worry about them.

A few days later, the old lady of the Lin family brought Lin Qing to the Marquis's residence. Zhu Lan was extremely surprised, "Old lady, you haven't left the house for a long time. Why did you come here in person today?"

The old lady of the Lin family, "I heard Lin Qing say a few words, so I came here."

Zhu Lan was puzzled. What did Lin Qing say that made the old lady pay so much attention to her? "You talk, I'm listening."

The old lady of the Lin family said, "Lin Qing and her mother got to know the wife of Lord Zhang. Miss Zhang became familiar with Lin Qing and asked a lot about the Marquis' Mansion. When I heard Lin Qing talk about it, I thought it was wrong and asked a lot more questions. I'm not going to remind you."

Although she is old, she knows everything clearly, so she came to remind the Zhou family.

Zhulan took a long time to come back to her senses. Was he targeting their family again? Who could he be targeting? Mingjia? Minghui? Or Changzhong?

The old lady of the Lin family is very experienced. She saw that Madam Zhou knew about the Zhang family, so she knew that was good.

Zhulan, "Thank you, old lady, for reminding me."

"I just think that the Zhang family is too cunning when they come to Beijing, which makes people dislike them."

Zhulan was not happy either, "I know what's going on."

The old lady of the Lin family smiled again, "I heard from Qing'er that Mingrui did a lot for orphans, and my son praised Mingrui a lot after hearing that."

This marriage is excellent. My son and my father are extremely satisfied.

Lin Qing blushed and thought to herself that Mingrui is the best.
