Chapter 755: Young Lady Gu
Gu Zizhong is not the kind of person who is greedy for merit, and she is already very content with her father-in-law's appreciation of her.
After handling the marriage for his sisters, Gu Zizhong was relieved.
However, as soon as the younger sisters got married, the Zhu family became even more empty.
Gu Zizhong presided over the family affairs at home, more like she was busy alone.
The account room kept all the expenses of these days in the book and brought them to Gu Zi for revisit.
Gu Zizhong stayed up all night to check the accounts.
After all, the Zhu family has spent enough these days, and they are almost unable to make ends meet.
The imperial court's attitude towards Jinling City is ambiguous, so Zhu Wangye's silver is also delayed for a while, and then given for a while.
Don't take away your military power, don't give you money to spend first, let him starve for some days.
That's what those people in the court are thinking, right?
Maybe this is what the Queen Mother thinks in her heart!
Gu Zizhong involuntarily pointed the finger at the Empress Dowager.
Now the court is her old man in power.
She is in power, and the people below dare not move, and the court is still a court.
But once she travels west again, the court will be in chaos.
Her old man is responsible for the family business of the former emperor.
Gu Zizhong knows this very well, she also served as the queen mother in her previous life, and she also knows the pain of being the master of the house.
But now Gu Zizhong is thinking from the perspective of the Zhu family in Jinling.
The Empress Dowager's attitude towards the Zhu family in Jinling was unclear, so Gu Zizhong didn't have to be polite anymore.
Shoot when it's time to strike.
She will also give advice to Brother Zishan behind her back.
She often thinks about this when she reconciles accounts at night.
The family's accounts are clear, but they are seriously spent.
The rice, flour, grain and oil at home are all okay, but some other things are just luxury for the Zhu family.
These days, Marquis Wu Qing also returned to the north, and Uncle Li also returned to Jiangnan.
There are not many relatives and friends staying in Jinling.
However, the Li family took Lian'er and came to Gu Zizhong.
Gu Zizhong took someone in, so naturally he wouldn't ignore it.
She sent someone to bring meat and other vegetables to the Lee family.
And the Zhu family themselves tightened their belts.
Prince Zhu sometimes runs errands outside, and sometimes he is at home.
However, he didn't care about these things and let Gu Zizhong take care of it.
Zhu Wangye seems to be a spectator.
Under Gu Zizhong's arrangement, the Zhu family's life was tight.
However, the dependents around the Zhu family are living extremely well.
She also felt ashamed in her heart, and because of this incident, she went to her father-in-law's study and wanted to confide in his old man.
Zhu Wangye pretended to be confused on the surface, and repeatedly comforted Gu Zizhong and asked her to let it go.
Gu Zizhong could guess that her father-in-law valued her.
But she didn't have much confidence in herself.
She also went back to her mother's house for this and borrowed some silver from her mother's house.
Zhu Liuhong didn't appear for a long time, but he appeared at this juncture.
Gu Zizhong instinctively watched out for him.
It turned out that he and Delan were in the same group.
Later, Dai Lan entered the palace and became a concubine.
Now Dai Lan has also become a queen mother-level figure.
This Zhu Liuhong needs to be more careful.
Gu Zizhong learned from the eyeliner that Dai Lan is now deeply trusted by the Empress Dowager, and her power in the harem is also getting bigger and bigger.
She and Concubine Wu teamed up to dominate the harem.
The emperor is young, and if the harem is in chaos, it means that the entire court will be in chaos.
The court is in chaos, and the Zhu family naturally can't get better.
Gu Zizhong didn't want to see Zhu Liuhong, but he had to treat others a little better.
She was really curious, why didn't the emperor take Dailan with him to the funeral when he died?
Although it is said that the matter of burial has been abolished by the previous emperors.
But that doesn't mean that the funeral can't be done.
In the previous life, many concubines beside Gu Zizhong followed the emperor to accompany the funeral.
If it weren't for Gu Zizhong's great power, she would not be able to escape the burial and death.
But it's a pity to think about it, she finally died under the sword of her righteous son.
But this is all from a past life.
This is the situation now, the Empress Dowager is getting older and older, and her brain is becoming more and more unclear.
It is very likely that Dai Lan will grab the pigtails of the court and take the power for himself.
It is really terrible that women are leaning towards the opposition.
As soon as Gu Zizhong thought of this, his attitude towards Zhu Liuhong became more respectful.
It's just that it is still difficult to ensure the majesty of his young lady and be respectful to others.
Gu Zizhong's change of attitude made Zhu Liuhong happy.
Zhu Liuhong also mentioned that the Zhu family owed him 20,000 taels of silver before.
He also mentions old accounts.
Gu Zizhong was about to forget about it, but he actually dared to mention it.
He extorted 20,000 taels of silver from the Zhu family in Jinling, is he justified?
Gu Zizhong was angry in his heart, but he couldn't say it.
She is respectful to Zhu Liuhong, and she also treats others as the Zhu family's own brothers.
It's just that Zhu Liuhong sold well when he got cheap.
Gu Zizhong also gave him face.
Before Zhu Liuhong finally left, he made a small request, that is, he hoped that the Zhu family in Jinling would help him find an errand in the imperial court.
Doesn't he himself have a good relationship with Dylan?
He can use the help of the Zhu family in Jinling to find a job?
Gu Zizhong agreed first on the surface, but he was secretly suspicious in his heart.
Zhu Liuhong, this kid, couldn't be too guarded, she still pretended to be calm.
But when the people left, Zhu Wangye came back, and she immediately told Zhu Wangye about it.
Zhu Wangye disagreed.
Zhu Liuhong came to make trouble not once or twice.
If he really has the ability to soar, why bother to come to Zhu's house to make trouble?
Zhu Wangye asked her to ignore that person.
She complied and forgot about Zhu Liuhong.
When he returned home, Gu Zizhong wrote a letter to Brother Zishan about the news that his sisters were married.
She hoped that Brother Zishan, who was far away in the capital, would reply to the letter soon.
Five days later, Zhu Changxi replied to the letter.
The language in the letter is lighthearted.
When Gu Zizhong saw the words on the letter, he was so shocked that he was about to laugh.
Brother Zishan, what are you going to do? Are you going on vacation?
Why is he still half-joking.
But no matter what, she helped the Zhu family marry off the county lord of the Zhu family, and she was also beautiful and enviable.
She has made a great contribution to the Zhu family, and the Zhu family will definitely keep this matter in mind.
Gu Zizhong put away Brother Zishan's letter, thinking in his heart, the more he calculated, the more beautiful it became.
She couldn't help it, picked up the pen, and wrote another letter to Brother Zishan.
This is a family letter.
She wrote all the words of you and me.
Aunt Cui happened to see it, and even asked her: "County Lord, can Zhu Shizi understand what you wrote?"
What is this called!
