Chapter 1645 Guess

Changzhi couldn't keep talking to Gu Sheng, so after answering, he went to appreciate paintings with his friends. Changzhi loved reading and had a large collection of books at home. The friends around him were all talented, and the conversation was very lively.

Gu Sheng did not come forward, but sat down to drink tea, though he was a little absent-minded. He liked to paint plum blossoms and had painted many of them. Touching the teacup with his fingertips, he laughed at his own wishful thinking.

In Yuwen's yard, Yudie snatched the book, "Master Gu is here today."

"I know."

Yudie came to see the excitement, but her sister's calmness put an end to her gossip. "Why don't you do something else?"

Yuwen took the book back and turned to the page she had just read. "One picture of snow plums is enough."

She likes to weave the big web bit by bit, moistening things silently. Besides, Daddy is enjoying testing his future son-in-law secretly.

Yudie was speechless, "This is too subtle, nothing to say but a picture of plum blossoms, if I were to say Mr. Gu, I wouldn't think too much about it."

Yuwen smiled, "I don't need him to think too much, as long as there is a trace in his heart."

Yudie shuddered, "I just realized that among us sisters, you are the most terrifying."

Yuwen, "Thank you for the compliment."

Yudie decided not to offend Yuwen in the future. This girl would not pay attention to anything unless she was provoked. If she was angered, who knew what kind of revenge she would take.

Yudie couldn't concentrate on reading, so she left after sitting for a while.

Yuwen's personal maid asked, "Miss, can I go to the front yard to inquire about the news?"

"Need not."

Anyway, her father will tell her when he comes back, so why should she bother?

In the front yard, Changzhi found Gu Sheng drinking tea quietly and motioned his friends to admire him first. He walked up to Gu Sheng and asked, "Why don't you come over?"

Gu Sheng smiled and said, "It is an honor to see two paintings today. I will just listen and appreciate them here."

Chang Zhi, "I heard that Master Zhang values ​​talent and intends to marry his illegitimate daughter to you."

As Gu Sheng entered the palace more and more times, it became difficult for Zhuo Guyu to suppress him. More and more people began to pay attention to Gu Sheng. Who wouldn't like a promising young man?

Gu Sheng was surprised, "Who told you that?"

Changzhi, "Master Zhang asked me about you."

"You also know that I am not getting married, so there are many rumors about me."

Changzhi narrowed his eyes, "So you want to get married?"

Gu Sheng shook his head hurriedly, "I will not compromise with rumors, my thoughts have not changed."

Changzhi's smile deepened, he stood up and patted Gu Sheng on the shoulder, "You are very good."

Gu Sheng was in a daze, he could no longer suppress his inner thoughts, then shook his head, thinking that Lord Zhou was just concerned about him, as for whether he had any other thoughts, only he knew.

At noon at the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren was surprised that the prince would come over, "Isn't it the wedding dress try-on today?"

Prince, "I have already tried them on, so I came back."

Zhou Shuren looked up at the prince and said with a smile, "When I first met Your Highness, Your Highness was still a child. Many years have passed and Your Highness is getting married."

The prince was a little embarrassed, "I will move out of the palace when the time comes."

Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "In the future, when the prince attends court, he will be like an old minister."

It is convenient to attend court when living in the palace, but it is a pain to go to court outside the palace.

The prince laughed out loud, he knew how much the Duke of Zhou resisted getting up early.

Zhou Shuren pushed the account book on the table to the prince, "Prince, please read these carefully."

The prince looked at the thick account book and said, "Okay."

He learned a lot in the Ministry of Revenue, and the more he learned, the more he understood how powerful Zhou Hou was.

The prince and his guards picked up the account book, stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Zhou."

Without Duke Zhou, the country would not have developed so well in these years. Duke Zhou ensured the country's security.

Zhou Shuren was very satisfied with the prince. The emperor was teaching an excellent heir, but when he thought about the actions of the second prince, it was far from enough.

The prince returned to his solitary room, and his personal eunuch Li asked, "Why didn't you tell Marquis Zhou that the emperor reprimanded the second prince today?"

The prince took a book and said, "Marquis Zhou doesn't care about his second brother's actions. He knows that even without his second brother, Zhou Changyi's power must be divided."

Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the prince looking at the account book seriously, he quietly stepped aside and sighed in his heart. He thought he had seen a lot since he followed the prince since he was a child, but now he realized how shallow he was.

Two days later, at the morning court session, the emperor went to court with a sullen face, and the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. This year the weather was good, there were no floods or droughts, and as the crown prince's wedding was approaching, the emperor could not hide his good mood. What happened today?

The emperor looked at the courtiers sharply, "Last night, the grassland sent urgent news."

Zhou Shuren stared at the emperor. Something must have happened on the grassland, which is why the emperor was so angry and worried about his eldest grandson!

As a result, the emperor fell silent after he finished speaking. He did this on purpose to see the reactions of his ministers.

Zhou Shuren was anxious, but he could only wait patiently.

The emperor's eyes darkened. "Wu Ming was attacked while inspecting the ranch. Fortunately, Zhou Mingyun brought many guards with him, so Wu Ming was able to escape danger."

Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief, glad that his grandson was okay. He wondered in his heart who was behind the division of the grassland into states. Wu Ming was the real boss. The changes in the grassland were obvious to all, and the most intuitive thing was to look at the tax revenue. It could be said that Wu Ming held a very important position in the emperor's heart.

Wu Ming built a framework on the grassland, and someone wanted to pick peaches, so the assassination took place.

Your Majesty, "Very good, very good. I don't believe there was no insider in the assassination of a hundred people. The method of killing with a borrowed knife is well used."

He was even more angry because the grassland had just been stabilized. If the assassination attempt was successful, would the forces that were not completely eliminated in the grassland fight back? If the grassland was not stable, all the hard work of the past few years would be wasted. How much manpower and material resources had been spent on building the grassland?

Zhou Shuren tried to hold back, but couldn't help but step forward, "Your Majesty, are Wu Ming and Minister Changsun safe?"

The emperor suppressed his anger and said, "Neither of them was injured."

Zhou Shuren stepped aside. The emperor was furious, but there was no need for him to add fuel to the fire and appear aggressive. The emperor would definitely investigate thoroughly anyway, so he just needed to wait for the result.

Sometimes not fighting is the opposite of fighting, just like now, the emperor knows Zhou Hou very well, and Zhou Hou is a person who protects his shortcomings, but he did not make trouble in the court, which shows that he trusts him.

After the morning court session ended, the emperor sent people to check on them. They were seen walking together in groups of three or four. Even though they couldn't discuss openly, their eye contact revealed what they wanted to say.

Wang Ju comforted her, "Don't worry."

Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."

He was really not worried. He trusted Wu Ming's ability. This was going to cost Wu Ming's life, so he had to be prepared for revenge by the boss. Did he really think Wu Ming was easy to bully?

Wang Ju saw the look of grief on Zhou Shuren's face, "!!"

Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, "Someone is going to be in trouble."

The emperor will not show mercy. This time, his bottom line has been crossed.

Wang Ju swallowed her saliva and asked, "Do I know something?"

Zhou Shuren looked at the ministers walking away in front of him and said quietly, "I'm just guessing."

"Guess what?"

Zhou Shuren sneered, "Some people are too impatient."
