Chapter 977 Pregnancy makes you stupid for three years

Outside the palace, Ran Zheng left the palace, climbed onto his carriage and sat paralyzed, motionless. He was unwilling to accept this. He had not yet avenged his son, and he was unwilling to be plotted against. He closed his eyes and lay down in the carriage. Only by closing his eyes could he hide the emotions in his eyes.

Zhou Shuren stopped caring about it after meeting Ran Zheng, and the rest was none of his business.

The academy was clearly in a state of dejection. He was really worried that Ran Xun had not come to the academy. The servant went to Ran's house to ask about it, but Ran Xun just told him to take care of himself.

Ming Teng was worried about the Ran family and grabbed his hair anxiously. Ran Xun was his brother and Ran Wan was his future sister-in-law. Even though his eldest brother seemed cold all day long, he was his younger brother and knew that his eldest brother was not at peace, so he was very honest, and even Minghui was honest.

Not to mention my parents. My mother has the loudest voice. I didn’t dare to breathe loudly in front of my eldest brother these past two days. “I’m annoyed.”

This was the first time Jiang Du had witnessed cruelty. In his eyes, the Ran family was very far away, but they were tall and majestic, like a big tree that was about to fall. "Cousin, can you stop sighing?"

Sighing, he felt upset.

Ming Teng felt that his cousin's temper was getting worse and worse, and he never thought that it was his fault.

Dong Zhan read the book silently. Didn't the Dong family also change overnight? It's just that the Dong family stepped down on their own, and the Dong family also had the Zhou family as a marriage partner. It was good for his aunt to be in the Zhou family, so he could go to Beijing to study. He touched the books and all he could grasp was reading. He calmed down and continued to study.

At the Ran Mansion, Ran Wan already knew that her father had injured his arm. She had just fed her mother some medicine, left the maid behind, and sat alone behind the rockery crying. She wanted to make herself stronger, but she really couldn't help it.

When Ran Wan had almost finished crying, she looked up and saw the handkerchief, "You were here all along?"

Ran Xun sat next to Ran Wan, "Well, I was on the rockery just now, cry, it will make you feel better."

These past two days, he felt sorry for Ran Wan. The little girl had to take care of her second aunt and suppress her panic.

Ran Wan's nose was red. "My dad will be fine, right?"

Ran Xun nodded heavily, "Yes, Second Uncle must be fine, Grandpa must have a way. I overheard Grandpa and Grandma talking about it. Lord Zhou also helped. Mingteng said that his grandfather is very powerful. Grandpa said that he mentioned Lord Zhou many times, so there must be a way."

Ran Wan's eyes widened. She didn't know this. She had to take care of her mother and grandmother, and her grandfather wouldn't tell her much. It turned out that the Zhou family also helped. "The Zhou family is good."

Ran Xun nodded, "Yeah."

Ran Wan hooked her fingers together and asked, "When do you think my dad will be able to come out?"

Ran Xun knew that Ran Wan just wanted to gain confidence, so he said firmly: "It will definitely come out, and soon."

As soon as the words fell, Ran Wan and Ran Xun's maid ran over, "The master is back, and the master said that the second master will be able to return home soon."

Ran Wan stood up suddenly and sat down on the ground again. Her legs were numb from squatting for too long. She didn't care about the pain at all and asked the girl who was supporting her, "Are you telling the truth?"

The girl nodded heavily, "It's true, the news came from the main courtyard."

Ran Wan finally smiled, "Come on, let's go back to the yard."

Ran Xun touched his mouth, "My mouth is so clever?"

Inside the palace, the emperor knew that Ran Zheng had come to the palace after meeting Zhou Shuren, and he said to Eunuch Liu, "I said this old fox is the one who lives the most clearly. He lives too clearly."

Eunuch Liu replied carefully, "Lord Zhou has no ambitions, he just wants to live a better life."

The emperor knew, "If everyone could live as clearly as Zhou Shuren, I would be much more relaxed. They want too much."

Eunuch Liu felt that it was so precious that Lord Zhou lived such a clear life. Everyone has desires, including him. Now that most of his body was in the grave, he let go.

But Lord Zhou always knew what he wanted and what he couldn't touch.

Eunuch Liu just remembered that he had something to report, "Your Majesty, the Empress has punished the Concubine again."

The Emperor waved his hand to signal Eunuch Liu to leave. He was not going to take care of the harem anymore. Let the Empress do whatever she wants. She has endured long enough over the years.

Eunuch Liu withdrew, and the emperor no longer went to the harem, but he was still tolerant of the empress in his heart.

Ran Lei returned to the Ran Mansion, and the news of Ran Zheng's retirement spread.

Ministry of Revenue, Wang Ju sighed after hearing this, "Lord Ran is really decisive."

Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."

Wang Ju said again: "What a pity, what a pity."

Zhou Shuren didn't think it was a pity. Ran Zheng stepped down in exchange for a bright future for his two sons. Maybe it would even compensate Ran Yan. When the prince ascended the throne, he would confer titles on the harem.

He also learned a lot from Ran Zheng, that sometimes you have to make a decision without hesitation.

Wang Ju asked, "Your reaction is too bland."

"I applauded excitedly?"

Wang Ju shuddered, feeling that it was too painful to watch. "Anyway, the problem has been solved, and you can rest assured."

Zhou Shuren pointed to the ground and said, "You want to feel safe in the capital? Don't dream about it."

Wang Ju, "......."

When the King of Qi heard the news, he sat quietly. After all their efforts, it turned out that his father was the biggest winner. The King of Qi thought about his grandfather's words. His grandfather said that his enemy had never been the crown prince, but his father was his biggest enemy.

The prince is stable because he has the support of his father. He and his brothers are all under his father's control and have never jumped out of it.

Prince Qi was unwilling to accept this, even though he knew that his father was partial to the Crown Prince and the Empress. The Empress's actions in the harem were all tacitly approved by his father. The Imperial Concubine had approached his father, and Concubine Qi had approached him, but in the end, they were both blocked!

The King of Chu had the ugliest look on his face when he heard the news. The only consolation he got was that Ran Zheng retired, which was considered a good gain.

King Liang was not happy either. The situation could have been more chaotic, and he was ready to take action today. However, the damned Ran Lei was released, and he wasted the opportunity in vain.

King Liang pursed his lips. Ran Zheng went into the palace as soon as he saw Zhou Shuren. It might be Zhou Shuren who gave Ran Zheng the idea. It was really a nuisance. The last opportunity was such a pity. The old man was too cautious and actually let the son of a civil servant practice martial arts.

Zhang Yang took a while to reflect before accepting that Ran Lei was fine. The evidence was complete and Ran Lei was wrongly accused. Was his plan finally shattered?

At Zhou's house, Zhulan also got the news. Li was chanting Buddha's name vigorously, "Mother, the scriptures I secretly wrote these days are useful."

Zhulan, "Have you been writing scriptures these days?"

Li smiled dryly, "Yes, I have been copying it during the day."

Zhulan rubbed her forehead and asked, "Are you sure you copied the scripture correctly?"

Li was frozen. She only copied what she was used to. Li did not dare to say anything. "It seems to be useless. Fortunately, it is useless."

This time she didn't dare to take any credit.

Zhu Lan said angrily, "I see you've become stupid since you got pregnant. People say that pregnancy makes women stupid for three years, and you've proven that."

Li silently counted some of the stupid things she had done after getting pregnant. This time was the most obvious. Then she asked, "Mom, who told you that pregnancy makes women stupid for three years?"

Zhulan, "......Is this the point? The point is that you must never mention the scriptures in front of the Ran family."

Li bowed her head and admitted her fault, not paying attention to her mother-in-law's words, "Mother, I will definitely not tell."
