Regarding Wu Yicheng's marriage to a concubine, Zhu Changxi pretended not to know and never mentioned this matter again.

Gu Zizhong also understood in his heart that on the one hand, Brother Zishan took a fancy to the friendship between him and Brother Wu, and on the other hand, he was looking at Gu Zizhong's face.

After all, Wu Yicheng is Gu Zizhong's doorman.

Gu Zizhong was very pleased, because on the one hand, Brother Zishan understood the reason, and on the other hand, under the clear mind, there was also a deep affection.

This is exactly what Gu Zizhong hopes Brother Zishan will do.

Aunt Cui reminded Gu Zizhong that in the past two days, Zhu Shizi has begun to hide from the barracks, intentionally or unintentionally.

Because of the lack of manpower in the Jinling barracks, most of the people returned to the countryside to work in agriculture.

This is called temporary dissolution.

After disbanding them, the Jinling Zhu family in the province was paid again, which also saved a lot of expenses.

Moreover, when the soldiers returned to their hometowns to farm, they could also relieve the pressure on the Zhu family in Jinling.

The little emperor's eyes couldn't wait to be directly on the tower of Jinling City, staring at the Zhu family all the time.

Gu Zizhong found an opportunity, grabbed Brother Zishan, and didn't let him go.

She had to ask her questions.

Zhu Changxi was quite impatient at first, but later he saw that Zizhong was really difficult, so he had to tell her the truth.

Zhu Changxi went to the Qinglou.

After Gu Zi heard it again, his face turned green.

How can this stinky man go to mess around every day?

And tell his wife so grandly?

Gu Zizhong really had an urge to hang himself in front of him.

Zhu Changxi hurriedly comforted her emotions.

They didn't want to tell her the truth, she had to ask clearly. So I can't complain about Zhu Changxi.

Gu Zi was angry and angry, but he still had to ask clearly, he went there to meet a few women, and they all gave something to others, whether it was worth it or not, and how much it was worth. Zhu Changxi: How much money did he take from his family.

These are all questions that need to be asked.

But Zhu Changxi told her categorically that she didn't take a penny from her family.

It can't be, right?

How is it possible to find a woman without money?

Is the place in the Qinglou just as you want to enter and exit as you want?

Her brother ......

At the mention of this kind of thing, Gu Zizhong was sad.

Didn't her brother have this problem before?

I go to any place where the wind and snow are blowing, and it is said that it is to meet guests.

Gu Zizhong didn't want to listen to Brother Zishan's explanation, anyway, the facts had already been decided, and the more he explained, the more chaotic it became.

Zhu Changxi turned around and left without explanation.

Leaving Gu Zizhong sad alone.

As a result, only two days later, news came from the capital, saying that the Donglin Party in the imperial court began to dim and depressed at this time.

Why? Usually, the Donglin Party has always been the most active group of people in the imperial court.

Gu Zizhong thought to himself.

Aunt Cui directly told her the answer: "Because of the current emperor, he scolded the Donglin Party that day, and said that he would never look at those people's folds again." ”

It's very strange that the little emperor suddenly became powerful.

Gu Zizhong was quite curious.

After Aunt Cui said this, she left.

Gu Zizhong didn't go to his heart anymore.

Brother Zishan went to the Qinglou, and Gu Zizhong was worried about this matter.

Zhenguo Gong finally appeared.

After being silent for a few months, Zhenguo Gong finally appeared in front of Gu Zizhong.

Gu Zizhong was shocked.

But in front of her, her father-in-law looked like a dying rotten tree, about to wither.

The branches are about to wither.

Originally, Gu Zizhong's spirit was quite strong, but at this time, he suddenly followed suit.

She went over and saluted her father-in-law.

Zhen Guogong suffocated himself in the room, and he was about to find out what was wrong.

He couldn't see the glare of the sun outside.

After resting for a while, Zhenguo Gong came to his senses.

Gu Zizhong poured him tea and served beside him.

Zhen Guogong finally smiled, and smiled naturally.

He waved at Gu Zizhong, and finally said the first sentence: "Zizhong, you have worked hard for so long." ”

Oh!

Gu Zizhong's face suddenly turned red.

Yes, she has worked hard, she is indeed very hard, especially in managing the Zhu family, she has contributed a lot.

Zhenguo Gong sighed and said, "Zizhong, the old man won't lie to you. In the last palace exam, I wanted to recruit a few Qingliu, but I was still harmed by the Donglin Party. ”

Gu Zizhong's nerves immediately tensed.

Zhenguo said: "I failed, now the champions, Bangyan, Tanhua, Jinshi, those gentlemen who enter the capital to become officials, are basically people from the Donglin Party." And our Jinling Zhu family, even the local vassal kings, and our protégés, have not been admitted. ”

Gu Zizhong already understood, her father-in-law didn't need to say much, she also knew it in her heart at this time.

It's still a matter of the court.

It was originally King Kang Mian and Zhu Lequan, who controlled the government and wanted to oppose the Zhu family in Jinling.

Now that King Kang Mian is dead, Zhu Lequan has also disappeared.

In turn, it became the Donglin Party.

In fact, it is still the Zhu family in Jinling, which is very inappropriate at this time.

The Jinling Zhu family controls the area south of the Yangtze River, which is equivalent to holding half of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Jiali has made too many contributions, and his troops are too strong.

Once the Zhu family has its own army, it will be a threat to the imperial court.

This is the emperor's heart disease, a bad heart disease.

This is also an important point that the DPRK's Chinese military officials can take to talk about things.

So my father-in-law went to the capital in the spring of this year and participated in the selection of the palace examination, but why was he depressed when he came back?

That's because of that.

Zhenguo Gong sighed: "The current emperor is indeed a capable person, he manages the ministers of the court obediently, and no one dares to disagree. However, he was too strong, so there was no step down. Our Zhu family, I'm afraid it will be very uncomfortable. ”

Speaking of which, it is still a game between the Zhu family in Jinling and the emperor.

After talking for a long time, Zhenguo Gong got up and left.

He came to say something about this to Gu Zizhong, and he didn't know what his intentions were.

Gu Zizhong just listened.

However, before Zhenguo Gong left, he said casually: "Jinyiwei is finally gone." ”

Gu Zizhong listened to this.

Oh, she thought about it, and finally understood why her father-in-law had locked himself in the house for so many days.

It turned out that the father-in-law was hiding from the brocade guard.

She appropriately lowered her status a bit.

She still took the initiative to take care of some small things at home.

If there is a major change in the family, she will have to ask her father-in-law's opinion.

She understands things very well, and she understands a lot.

So this is also one of the reasons why Gu Zizhong likes Zhenguo Gong very much.

Zizhong, a child who understands things, understands etiquette, and knows what he should do when he wants.

Zhenguo Gong is very pleased.
