Chapter 1634 Good Teacher
Zhulan was still a little dazed when she returned to the hall. Bah, he shouldn't have believed Shu Ren and Chang Yi's words. What about the princess being reluctant to leave the country? What about the princess being sad that she was a gift? It was obvious that she had fallen in love with her grandson!
Zhou Shuren has been paying attention to his wife. He misses her when she leaves, and becomes distracted when she comes back. Before he can figure things out, he feels the dagger in her eyes!
Soon it was time for gift-giving. Zhou Shuren collected his thoughts and looked at the envoys from various countries across from him. He felt proud at that moment.
Zhulan had a feast for her eyes today, seeing treasures from various countries. Of course, some of them were gifts from princesses. In fact, the princesses were also gifts, but they were covered with a layer of veil.
The queen remained calm and not jealous. The emperor did not value beauty anyway. He had three princesses in total, all from neighboring countries.
Everyone's eyes were on the emperor. He smiled and accepted the gift without mentioning the princess. The queen smiled and asked the princesses to return to their seats. The palace banquet ended.
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren left the palace together. Zhou Shuren lowered his voice and asked, "What did you see when you left just now?"
Zhulan was about to speak when she saw the envoys from various countries leaving. "Let's go back and talk."
After leaving the palace and riding in a carriage back home, Zhulan told her discovery, "Your grandson is quite capable!"
Zhou Shuren, "!!"
He was really surprised. His grandson was so amazing!
Zhulan frowned, "What do you think we should do?"
Zhou Shuren's eyes wandered, "This matter cannot be hidden from the emperor."
Zhulan was anxious because she knew this. "The emperor will take advantage of it if he knows."
Zhou Shuren touched his nose and said, "Ah, there's nothing I can do."
The twins didn't listen to him!
Zhulan took a deep breath for a while, but still couldn't control her anger and went to change her clothes in a hurry.
The couple's worries were right. The emperor knew everything about the palace. When he met Jiang Ping again, Jiang Ping said, "The princess had a crush on my brother. I didn't expect her to be so bold. My brother knew something and it would be exposed, which led to what happened today."
After hearing what the princess said, the emperor turned the beads. He was also surprised. It was obvious that this princess would be more useful if she returned than if she stayed in Beijing. He signaled Jiang Ping to leave.
The Emperor asked the Prince, "What do you think?"
The prince, of course, thought from the perspective of the country, "My son thinks that the princess should be sent back to the country."
The emperor nodded in satisfaction. He didn't have the energy to annex now, but that didn't mean he would in the future. "Yes."
The prince thought for a moment and said, "Marquis Zhou is waiting for his two grandsons to return."
emperor,"......"
While chatting yesterday, Zhou Shuren mentioned that the twins are already quite old and both brothers have gotten married in Beijing!
The prince smiled and asked, "How do you plan for the other two princesses?"
The emperor narrowed his eyes and asked, "How about giving one to your second brother?"
The prince lowered his head, "I think it's inappropriate. I'm not afraid that my second brother will gain more power, but I don't want my second brother to be provoked by others. He is not from our country, so who knows what is behind the beauty trap."
The emperor withdrew his gaze and asked, "You are right. How do you think we should arrange this?"
The prince raised his head and said, "It would be bad to send them all back. Since they are here, let them stay. Since the royal family does not have anyone suitable, we can keep the princess as a permanent envoy."
Women get involved in politics, develop ambitions and then find ways to return to their country.
The emperor laughed and said, "Good, good, not bad."
The prince thought to himself that he also saw various possibilities in Zhou Hou, a good teacher!
Zhou Shuren was still unaware of the prince's actions, and the next day, he was not in a hurry to leave the Zhengdian ceremony, which was rare, so that all the adults could watch him more.
The emperor guessed what Zhou Shuren wanted to say, but he felt guilty and pretended not to see it.
Zhou Shuren saw that the emperor was playing dumb, and there was something he didn't understand. The emperor already knew everything, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Li Zhao paused. Whenever Zhou Shuren spoke, it was always something important. He carefully recalled what big things had happened recently, but there was nothing!
The emperor raised his head from his folding paper and said, "Marquis Zhou, please stay."
The others left quickly, curious about what had happened.
Zhou Shuren and the others left, leaving only the royal family and the prince in the room. He said directly, "Your Majesty, the twins have been away from home for many years, and I miss them very much."
The emperor raised his hand, "Don't lie to me. I know you've discovered it. I know the reason why you came here today. Shu Ren, I will have to use military force sooner or later."
He took out a map and pointed to a place, saying, "This place will become our territory sooner or later."
Zhou Shuren knew there would be no result, but he would not give up without trying hard. From the perspective of the country, some sacrifices were unavoidable. "Your Majesty, I understand."
The emperor touched the map and said, "You have two good grandsons. Although they cannot appear in public, their contributions will be remembered."
Zhou Shuren moved his lips, but then they turned into sighs. He could sense the patriotism of his two grandchildren. He himself could not persuade the twins. "I am proud of them."
There are too many people behind the country's stability, and his two grandsons are among them.
How could the emperor not be proud? He sent many spies to various countries, who brought back a lot of important information for him. Not only the twins, but all those who served the country were national heroes.
Soon, the emperor mentioned the destinations of several princesses. Zhou Shuren looked at the prince and said, "Great! That's a great idea!"
The prince laughed when he was looked at, as if he was well taught by the marquis.
Zhou Shuren, "......"
He really wanted to know what the prince had learned from him!
The emperor was not a man who would procrastinate. When the exchange lists of various countries were submitted, all that could be exchanged was approved. The envoys from various countries had not expected the process to be so smooth. The only few countries that had princesses were upset.
The beauty trap failed, and the princess became a permanent envoy instead. The princess of Jiang An's country refused to be an envoy, and cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to hang herself to return home.
Because Jiang An was the person in charge, he finally agreed reluctantly.
Before Jiang An left, Zhu Lan and Zhou Shu Ren met Jiang An at night. Zhu Lan asked, "Is Jiang Ping pretending to be you?"
Jiang An nodded, "I don't know when I can come back, so I'll go see my grandparents before I leave."
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren were silent. Finally, Zhou Shuren patted his grandson on the shoulder and said, "Be careful outside. If anyone comes back with bad ideas, don't put yourself in danger."
Jiang An nodded, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will come back to honor you and grandma, and I will be safe and sound."
Zhulan stood up and hugged her grandson, "I'll wait for you to come back."
Jiang An left after sitting for a while because he had to go back to see his parents.
When the envoy left the capital, Zhulan swayed for a moment and looked unwell. Zhou Shuren saw it and finally submitted a letter asking for leave.
The emperor thought of the twins and was grateful for Zhou Shuren's hard work, so he finally approved the leave.
Zhou Shuren got the leave note and said happily, "We have half a month's vacation. Shall we go to the sea?"
Zhulan was surprised, "I actually have half a month's vacation?"
Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "Hurry up and pack your luggage."
The old couple was going to take a boat out to sea. When the news spread, Zhou Laoda and his family were worried. Several families came to the main courtyard. Zhou Laoda said, "Son, accompany your parents."
Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "You are the prince of the Marquisate, you have to guard the Marquisate when I am not here."
Changzhi pointed at himself and said, "Dad, I can take a leave. Your son will go with you."
Changyi also wanted to go, but unfortunately he couldn't leave, so he could only look at Mingrui.
Mingrui smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'll accompany you."
Zhou Shuren didn't want to take any of them with him, but he still had to take them with him for the sake of reassuring his sons. He looked at his grandchildren in deep thought.
