The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 1840 - become a dad



In the Zhouhou Mansion, Zhulan played chess with the eldest grandson of the emperor. That’s right, she was playing chess with a little baby at her age, and she was evenly matched, so she couldn’t save face.

Zhulan held the chess pieces and moved them. In the end, her age had the upper hand, and Zhulan said with a relaxed tone, “I won.”

The eldest grandson put down the chess piece in his hand, “I have been taught today, thank you Madam for your advice.”

Zhulan looked at the rarity of fat dolls, and she was as lovable as Shuren said, “I’ve always heard that the eldest grandson is clever, and today I have gained a lot of knowledge.”

The eldest grandson of the emperor raised his chin. He played chess with Grandpa Huang since he was a child, “Grandpa Huang taught him well.”

However, Zhulan knew the eldest grandson Zaohui, so don’t look at people with a lot of petty ideas. Seeing Qingxue bringing in the fruit, she smiled and said, “How about the eldest grandson eat some fruit?”

The most fruit in the capital is the Zhouhou Mansion.

The eldest grandson likes to eat fruit, “Then I’m welcome.”

The fruit was not cut open. Although he knew that the Hou residence was safe, the father-in-law who cared for the eldest grandson would still test it, and then cut some for the eldest grandson to eat.

Zhulan took a few bites and read the newspaper, which was full of reports on the reform of the imperial examination.

The little guy tilted his head, “Mrs. also likes to read newspapers?”

“Yes..”

The little guy said: “Grandpa Huang and father also like it, but they like to read the people’s livelihood behind the newspaper the most. Grandpa Huang said that a good monarch is a good monarch if he has the people in his heart.”

Zhulan was surprised that the emperor taught the eldest grandson how to be the king, and then she was happy, which showed that the prince would surely succeed the throne.

In the past two years, the three princes have been honest, and the other princes have seen it. The Wang family has become quieter, and the princes with the blood of the Wang family have also alienated the Wang family a bit.

Concubine Zhang raised Wang Zhaoyi’s second son, so there was no estrangement between mother and son, and the seventh prince had no chance if he was young and thoughtful.

The sixth prince’s mother, Zhang Meiren, came from a low background. First, she did not have the support of her mother’s family, and second, she was not favored.

Except for the second prince who is still unwilling, the other princes have lost hope.

Zhulan thought that Shuren became the eldest grandson master, and the second prince was hit the hardest. This is not because the emperor showed his attitude that the prince succeeded the throne!

The emperor’s eldest grandson went to Zhouhou’s mansion to sit as a guest, and the news spread very quickly. Without mentioning the household department where Zhou Shuren was, it was said that there were a lot of discussions in other departments.

In the Ministry of Rites, Changyi also made a lot of limelight because of the reform of the imperial examinations. When it comes to who has learned the most foreign studies in the Ministry of Rites, Changyi said that he was second and no one said that he was first.

Changyi’s many years of research and study are not for nothing. The country has just promoted elementary books, and he has almost become a master!

This made the Ministry of Rites dumbfounded for a long time, because the Ministry of Rites also had to learn new knowledge in the reform of the imperial examinations, so Changyi was brought out and could not keep a low profile.

Then Changyi even thought that he could give it a try when the imperial examinations were reformed for a few more sessions, and his self-confidence suddenly burst!

Changyi taught his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites, and he was respected. This time, it was not because of his background. Changyi won the respect with his strength.

It’s just that his colleagues looked at him with sour eyes today, and only after inquiring did they know that the emperor’s eldest grandson was a guest at home!

Changyi faced the temptation, “I don’t know, I don’t know, I haven’t been home for many days.”

Although he didn’t set the question, he didn’t have to live in the examination room, but he couldn’t go home during the imperial examination!

In the Ministry of Household, Zhou Shuren chatted with Zhang Jinghong, “Qiu Yan is about to go to office, he recommends you to be the servant.”

Zhang Jinghong couldn’t react, “Me? I thought I was.”

Zhou Shuren smiled and said, “You can see your political achievements over the years.”

Zhang Jinghong really thought that he would work in his current position to the death. Since his son’s smooth engagement has not responded, he has been satisfied. Now tell him that this is a good thing?

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that now the world is peaceful and prosperous, because the elites and the national policy and imperial power in these years have reached the peak, what the people want is very simple, food, clothing and warmth, even if the prince of the previous dynasty is so crazy, he wants to overthrow everything now.

Therefore, in the emperor’s heart, the background of Zhang Jinghong’s descendants from the previous dynasty was gone, Zhang Jinghong was really honest, and the emperor was willing to give him a chance.

Zhang Jinghong is not stupid, he said hurriedly: “I will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death.”

Qiu Yan had a good relationship with him. He knew that Qiu Yan was a cautious person and would not take the risk of recommending him. Obviously, it was instructed by the emperor.

Zhou Shuren smiled, “Work hard in the future.”

Zhang Jinghong asked tentatively, “How about you, my lord?”

He had long felt that the adults were about to leave the household.

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, “Look at my beard is all white, I naturally have my place.”

The Ministry of Household has been thoroughly reformed in his hands, and without him being in the Ministry of Household, there will be no deviation. His current thoughts are all on the eldest grandson, because the eldest grandson is the future of the Zhang Dynasty and the hope of national reform.

And it’s time for him to rest, he and his wife have done enough, the seeds of the planting have been sown, and they also want to have some easy days.

In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren left the Ministry of Household early to go home, and unexpectedly saw that the eldest grandson of the emperor was still there, “Is Your Highness waiting for the old minister?”

The eldest grandson nodded, “Yes.”

Zhou Shuren went to change his official uniform first, “Is your Highness having a good time today?”

The eldest grandson nodded, “I’m glad, the scenery of the Hou Mansion is beautiful, and the Hou Mansion is very lively.”

Zhou Shuren smiled, “How about the old minister taking His Highness to the study in the front yard?”

“Okay, Grandpa Huang said that many people in the study of Zhouhou Mansion wanted to steal it.”

Zhou Shuren sighed, the biggest thief was the emperor. The emperor copied all the papers in the study. Now most of the papers sold on the market are from his study~www.mtlnovel.com~ Fortunately, the emperor gave the money, and it is still there. The names of several Changzhi were written on the inscription book.

Thinking of books, the corners of Zhou Shuren’s mouth turned up. The books Mingrui edited for the Men’s College were also printed. Mingrui’s future lies in education, and this child doesn’t need to worry about him in the future.

When he arrived at the study room in the front yard, the eldest grandson looked at the bookshelf, “Wow, there are so many books.”

Zhou Shuren picked up the emperor’s eldest grandson and walked to the third bookshelf, “These were given to the old minister by His Royal Highness’s great grandfather. The old minister was dumbfounded when he received the reward. They are all copied books and none of them are authentic.”

Too embarrassing, the emperor still didn’t give him a dream for the third anniversary, and he didn’t know whether he gave him a dream or not.

The eldest grandson was silent, thought for a while, and said, “I will give it to Master in the future!”

Zhou Shuren, “…”

He doesn’t dare to ask for something from the eldest grandson of the emperor, and if he gets one, he will pay back double!

When it was time for the yamen of the Hanlin Academy, Chang Zhong came out a little late today. He walked out while talking with the fourth brother, and when he went out, he saw the happy face of the young servant.

Chang Zhong raised his eyebrows, “Look at your happy appearance, what’s the joy of this?”

The little servant grinned, “A big happy event, a big happy event, Young Master, you are going to be a father.”

Chang Zhong reacted and turned his head for a while, “Brother, I heard right!”

Changzhi is also happy for his younger brother. The younger brother and sister are pregnant and the rumors about the younger brother’s children are self-defeating, “You heard right, you are going to be a father.”

Changzhong laughed, “Brother, I’m going to pick up Xinyi home.”

Changzhi said, “I guess my younger siblings have already gone home first.”

The little servant nodded in confirmation, and Chang Zhong grinned, “Brother, let’s go home quickly.”
