Chapter 861 Recommended Person

Zhou Shuren pointed at the table and said, "I taught you this. Educating children is not just about academics, but also about psychology. A child's psychological development is very important. Think about Dong Zhan's situation yourself."

Chang Lian recalled that the child seemed to be less and less talkative. He sighed and said, "It was my son's negligence."

Zhou Shuren said, "I was also careless. If Jiang Du hadn't mentioned it to your mother today, I wouldn't have noticed it."

Chang Lian lowered his head in shame, "Dad, I taught Dong Zhan, it's none of your business. You're already very busy, and it's all your son's fault if I make you worry."

Zhou Shuren motioned for Chang Lian to look up. "Before, there was Deng Yun at home. After going to Beijing, Deng Yun returned home. This child has received too many letters from the Dong family. You should talk to him more to reduce his pressure. And let your wife write to the Dong family. Forget it. Let me write it myself."

As he spoke, Zhou Shuren took out a piece of paper and wrote a letter, describing the Zhou family's situation and raising Dong Zhan's question. It was a very simple letter, which he handed to Chang Lian after he finished writing it, "Send someone to deliver it."

Chang Lian took the letter and said, "Yes."

Zhou Shuren stood up and walked a few steps to the study door before saying, "Dong Zhan should move to Jiang Du's yard. The two children can live together and have a companion when studying together."

"Yes, my son will arrange it tomorrow."

"Um."

Chang Lian took the letter back to the courtyard. Dong waited for her husband to enter the house and asked hurriedly, "What did Dad want to talk to you about?"

Chang Lian told the story of Dong Zhan, "We still neglected this child."

Mrs. Dong blushed. Her aunt had not done her job well. She was pregnant and her mind was on the child. Fortunately, she found out early. "It's my fault."

Chang Lian held his daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Now is not the time to rush to admit your mistakes. Pay more attention to this child in the future."

Dong sighed, "I understand."

Seeing that her husband was going to write a letter, Dong signaled to the maid to take the cloak. She put on the cloak, opened the door and went out. The maid had already lit the lantern, and Dong walked carefully to her nephew's room.

Outside the house, she could still see her nephew's shadow. The old woman was about to knock on the door, but Dong raised her hand to signal her not to make a sound and quietly pushed the door open.

She seldom came to her nephew's room, and she had never had the need to treat her nephew badly. The charcoal fire was of the best quality, and the temperature in the room was not low. Looking over, Dong Zhan did not hear any sound and continued to read.

But Dong Chuchu could see clearly that her nephew kept frowning, and then he grabbed his hair with both hands and lay on the table in frustration. Dong Chuchu said in a hoarse voice, "If you can't understand it, don't look at it."

Dong Zhan was startled, then he realized that his aunt had entered the room, and he quickly straightened his hair, "Aunt, I'm not."

Dong Chuchu sighed, "Aunt knows that you have been studying very hard. Okay, if you can't concentrate, don't read it. I ignored you in the past, but I won't do that in the future."

Dong Zhan was stunned. Why could he stay in Zhou's house? He knew that his aunt only cared about him materially. At other times, his aunt had a thorn in her heart towards her father and mother. His eyes turned red, "I don't want to cry."

Dong Chuchu hugged her nephew and said, "Auntie knows. I was wrong. I won't do that again in the future."

Chang Lian stood at the door and signaled to the maid not to make a sound, then went back to the house. He knew that his wife came to see the children, but he was still worried. Now he can rest assured.

The next morning, Zhulan discovered that Dong Zhan was smiling and was smiling at everyone. This was a good progress.

In the Mansion of Marquis Yao, Yao Wenqi stared at the news in his hand. This was the news that came in early this morning. There was only one word to describe it: stupid. Zhang Yang was still hiding in the Prince's Mansion, and they wanted to take action against the Prince and the Crown Prince.

A few days ago, the Crown Prince and several other princes had already cleared out the people around them. Although there were still some hiding ones who had not been uncovered, now was not the time to act.

Yao Wenqi has gotten to know the emperor over the years. The emperor is a person who likes to play chess. Ever since the people around the prince were exposed, he doesn't believe that the emperor is not fully prepared. If he takes action against the prince and the princes now, who knows, the emperor may be waiting!

He would definitely not make this move, at least not now.

So in order to prevent idiots from taking private actions, damn, the Jianghuai case has already made the partners confused.

Inside the palace, the emperor had just left the court when Eunuch Liu said in a low voice, "Someone has followed him."

Your Majesty, "Do you know what was delivered?"

Eunuch Liu lowered his head and said, "I didn't find anything."

The Emperor motioned Eunuch Liu to go down, picked up the hand warmer and spoke, but his mind was calculating again and again about the other party's remaining moves. This Zhang Yang has already moved into the Fifth Prince's Mansion. He has been quiet for so long and is finally ready to make a move. He should add fuel to the fire. The case of Jiang Huai should be closed.

At the Ministry of Revenue, Xiao Qing sent away the eunuch who was delivering the message and called Zhou Shuren and Qiu Yan over. "Qiu Yan, get ready. You will be going to Jianghuai in a few days."

Zhou Shuren, "Is the case going to be closed?"

Xiao Qing praised Zhou Shuren's response, "Well, you should be the most suitable person to go, but you are not suitable to leave Beijing."

The main reason is that the emperor is afraid that Zhou Shuren will not come back. With the major case in Jianghuai and the problems discovered by Zhou Shuren, many people want to kill him.

Zhou Shuren twitched his lips. He didn't want to leave the capital. At least, until these forces were eliminated, he would never leave the capital. Even if he was in the capital, he would be very careful. "Sir, Lord Qiu alone is not enough!"

Xiao Qing said, "So we still need two assistant ministers and a few chief officials. Do you two have anyone to recommend?"

Qiu Yan was going to do the work himself, so he naturally chose the people he was in charge of. "I have some."

Zhou Shuren wanted to recommend Hu Xia. It was simple. Although this job was a bit tiring, it would be rewarding if it was done well. "There are several people in charge who have been diligent and hardworking. This time the amount of money is large, so we need some hardworking people."

Xiao Qing knew who Zhou Shuren was talking about. He would not pay attention to a person in charge before, especially since the Ministry of Revenue had the most people in charge. But when Hu Xia's nephew got lucky, he remembered it and said, "I know."

Zhou Shuren didn't mention it anymore. One person in charge was enough. Qiu Yan would do the rest and make the decisions.

Qiu Yan didn't hesitate and said the remaining names. Xiao Qing wrote them down and signaled that the two could leave.

Zhou Shuren left the room and said to Qiu Yan, "I have some excellent tea. I'll bring it to you tomorrow to taste."

Qiu Yan rolled his eyes in his heart, "Then I'll be waiting."

Zhou Shuren really had no shortage of good tea. He had always been in contact with officials in Lizhou City, and every year, good tea was sent to him as an annual gift. Lord Chen had a tea garden, so he had a constant supply of good tea.

In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren was ready to go home. He got on the carriage but was not in a hurry to leave. After Hu Xia came out, he opened the carriage curtain and asked, "Did you hear the wind?"

Hu Xia is a practical man, but he is not stupid. "I heard it."

Zhou Shuren thought, the Jianghuai situation has been settled, and every move is related to money. The Ministry of Revenue is the most informed among the six ministries. "You should get ready."

Hu Xia's eyes widened. "Yes, yes, I understand."

"Um."
