Chapter 1571: Something Unbelievable

As Zhulan spoke, she gestured to Qingxue to get her son's spare clothes, and asked the maid to prepare hot water. Although the temperature had risen, the late spring cold was still severe.

Changzhong sat on the chair and took the hot tea. After drinking a cup of hot tea and feeling warm, he said, "Mom, I fell into the water from the shore. Today is a very unlucky day."

"Did he really fall into the water?"

Chang Zhong frowned, "Today, my son and the Fourth Prince had just left the library when a fight broke out in front of them. Because of the Fourth Prince, we retreated to the back, and the fight was so fierce that it frightened several young ladies on the street. They came over to us and were about to throw my son into his arms. He had no choice but to jump into the water."

What's even more annoying is the Fourth Prince, who, instead of helping him when he reacted, was laughing loudly on the shore. Something happened on his side, so forget it, they stopped fighting in the streets and just watched him.

Zhulan, "......"

Changzhong said to himself, "Although it's a bit silly to jump into the water, it's better than hugging a girl. My son doesn't want to get engaged casually."

He wants the same love as his parents, and he will definitely find a wife who suits his taste in the future.

Zhulan frowned, "Why didn't you change your clothes before coming back? The spring cold is so severe, aren't you afraid of getting sick?"

"Because I remembered what I taught you, I wrapped myself in a cloak and came back to avoid any accidents."

Zhulan looked at her son's rosy face. This child is in good health. "Whose girl was that who almost fell into your arms?"

"My son was surrounded by the Fourth Prince's guards at the time, and he left without noticing. I really don't know."

Zhulan saw Qingxue coming in, "Okay, go take a shower and change clothes."

"Why."

Zhao waited for her brother-in-law to leave and said, "Mother, send someone to check. Is it an accident? Or is he targeting the Fourth Prince or me?"

"I thought so too. After all, it involves the Fourth Prince."

The Fourth Prince told the matter when he returned to the palace. The princes and the crown prince had the same reaction, believing that the attack was targeting the Fourth Prince.

Seeing his father and the eldest brother, the Crown Prince, looking serious, the Fourth Prince weakly stretched out his chubby hand and said, "Well, I think it was going after Zhou Changzhong. At that time, several young ladies were frightened and ran towards Changzhong, and Changzhong jumped into the water. My son was protected by the guards and saw it clearly. The young lady who almost fell into Changzhong's arms had a look of regret on her face."

emperor,"......"

The prince was at a loss for words, "Have you told Master Zhou?"

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Changzhong didn't give me a chance to speak. He was afraid of another accident and ran away. Big brother, you didn't see it. Changzhong ran away so quickly."

The prince was speechless. If his younger brother really wanted to tell Changzhong, he could have let Changzhong run away. He didn't tell him just to watch the show.

The emperor frowned, "In front of the public, and in the study, Zhou Changzhong has no choice but to marry her."

The fourth prince said, "So my son said he was going after Changzhong."

The emperor glared at his fourth son and ordered someone to investigate.

As for the result of the investigation, Zhulan got it very quickly. The fight was an accident. The girls at that time also knew whose family the man belonged to. It was obvious that throwing herself into his arms was a spur of the moment idea. It worked, and it almost worked.

Zhulan had a cold face. Zhao looked at her mother-in-law cautiously. Her mother-in-law was angry. "Mom, don't be angry for something that is not worth it."

Zhu Lan snorted, "I thought the Zhang family had given up, but it turns out they're still thinking about it and won't let go if they get the chance."

Zhao also felt disgusted. His plan was almost successful. "The servant next to me is still not smart enough."

Zhulan hadn't thought of this before. "I'll get two smart ones later. For now, just keep this one at home."

Zhulan did not hide it from her son, Changzhong, "My son will definitely stay away from women in the future. As long as they are girls, my son will avoid them."

Zhulan, "..."

That's not the case, just be careful.

That night, after Zhou Shuren found out, he patted his chest and said, "I'm so worried. If I marry the daughter of the Zhang family, I'll be so angry that I'll die."

"Don't even mention you. You can make me mad too."

Zhou Shuren was lucky that he had nothing to do with the Zhang family, as this would have ruined his plans. "I can't just let this go."

"What can you do if you don't remember it? The girls were frightened and panicked at the time. What can you do?"

Zhou Shuren snorted, "Then we have to criticize Master Zhang as well."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you."

The next day, Zhou Shuren stopped Lord Zhang after leaving court, and this action attracted everyone's attention.

Lord Zhang was delighted, and he was still thinking about going down the court to look for Marquis Zhou.

Zhou Shuren pointed to a deserted spot and said, "Let's go over there and talk."

The surprise on Lord Zhang's face disappeared, and Lord Zhou's expressionless face showed his displeasure. "Yes."

Zhou Shuren stood still and said, "I think you know what happened yesterday. Listen to my advice, work hard, live peacefully, and don't be too calculating in the future. The marriage of my youngest son is not something that anyone can calculate. Take care of yourself."

Lord Zhang was struck by lightning. This was different from what his concubine said. Young Master Zhou saved the concubine and even fell into the water for her. Bullshit! No wonder the concubine was hesitating. Lord Zhang thought back to his wife's excited look and his face turned pale and blue.

Lord Zhang didn't understand anything. It was simply that the concubine wanted to plot against Young Master Zhou, causing him to fall into the water. His face turned paler. His wife was thinking about Marquis Zhou's Mansion, and his sister sent him a message from the palace. He also knew that it was a good marriage, but he couldn't get it, so he warned his wife.

Everything has been quiet since the New Year and my wife never mentioned it. He was even happy to say it was fate about what happened yesterday. What fate is that? It makes me so angry that my heart aches.

The next day, Zhulan received an apology from the Zhang family. The Zhang family was also generous and gave a lot of good things. In the evening, Zhulan showed the list of compensation gifts to Shuren.

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, "It's a big loss, it's all good stuff."

Zhulan: "Well, the gift is very sincere."

Zhou Shuren, "Lord Zhang sent me a letter this afternoon saying that he has chosen a man for Miss Zhang and she will return to her hometown to get married tomorrow."

Zhulan raised her eyebrows, "Master Zhang is also smart."

"I'm scared. If it involves the Fourth Prince, the Emperor will definitely investigate. I guess Concubine Zhang in the palace sent the message. Plus, the Emperor trusts and values ​​me, the Zhang family won't make enemies with me just for a concubine."

Zhou Shuren guessed that the emperor went to Concubine Zhang's bedroom to see the little prince last night, but left after sitting for a while. The emperor would not say anything clearly, but only needed to mention it once and Concubine Zhang would understand. The news from Concubine Zhang showed the Zhang family how much Marquis Zhou favored the emperor.

Originally the gift list wasn't that heavy, but was added to after receiving the news.

In the palace, the queen had dinner with her two sons. The queen now had a very small appetite and would stop eating after a few bites.

After the fourth prince finished eating, he smiled and talked about the Zhang family's actions.

The Queen didn't pay attention to what happened next. She smiled and looked at the Crown Prince. "I heard from your father that the remaining grandchildren of Marquis Zhou don't plan to get engaged early. It's not a good idea to not get engaged early, Crown Prince. Don't you agree?"

The prince's expression did not change, "It has nothing to do with my son."

Queen, "It really has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about it. Mother will make the arrangements."

The fourth prince looked confused. He stared at his eldest brother as if he had discovered something incredible!

In the middle of the night, Zhulan was woken up and sat up in a daze, "What happened?"
