Chapter 1021: Pride
The emperor listened to it for a while, and he wrote down the meaning of the ministers, many of which were consistent with his thoughts, raised his hand and signaled them to stop, and then left Xiao Qing and Zhou Shuren of the household department.
For the officials who left the household department alone, they are used to it, and recently the household department has begun to cry poor again, all for the money.
The emperor first talked to Xiao Qing about the household department, Zhou Shuren continued to be in front of the background board, and Lord Xiao was about to leave and hurriedly followed.
The emperor opened his mouth, "Zhou Aiqing stays." β
Zhou Shuren, "......."
Haven't you even escaped this?
Xiao Qing flew away after hearing this, Zhou Shuren thought that if he didn't speak, the emperor would not notice, naΓ―ve!
The emperor motioned for Zhou Shuren to sit, and then said, "Your second son's language is indeed good. β
Yesterday's communication was very smooth, Zhou Changyi's language skills are indeed very strong, especially when translating, he is very accurate, and he saves a lot of things.
Zhou Shuren was vigilant in his heart, so many years of monarchs and ministers, this emperor's routine, "The minister thanked the emperor for the praise of the dog." β
The emperor sighed, "Originally, I wanted to make an order today, this person needs to be used where he is needed, and the Ministry of Rites needs it very much, but there are too many things, Shuren has always had a lot of ideas, Shuren didn't speak today, I really want to hear Shuren's opinion." β
Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes wildly in his heart, he knew that the foreshadowing in front of him was the foreshadowing, this was the point, insidious, and reminded him to speak with his son, "...... The minister agreed with Li Shangshu's words, non-our race should be careful, especially between the two countries, as evidenced by last year's piracy incident. β
The emperor snorted, and he naturally knew this, "Go on." β
Zhou Shuren gritted his back teeth, the emperor became more and more difficult to fool, and lowered his eyes, "The minister thinks that we can also send envoys to foreign countries, although the minister does not want to admit it, but the fact is that China's maritime power is still weak in its infancy, and the minister feels that we should learn from each other's strengths, and the minister's words are also right, the minister agrees, exchanges can develop, and it is not advisable to work behind closed doors." β
He hoped to be stationed in various countries, what a good opportunity to explore in the open and bright, only by going deep into foreign countries can he know better, and the news he brought back can be true, not heard.
The emperor smiled, he knew that the old fox had an idea, and this idea coincided with his thoughts. β
Zhou Shuren said in his heart, that is, he is a person in the future, and he naturally has a lot of knowledge, so he sometimes has to think about what he says, especially in the face of the wise and ambitious emperor, why does the emperor like to chat with him, the emperor wants to get more different insights from him and broaden his ideas.
The prince sat not far away, his eyes fixed on Zhou Shuren, his heart was very entangled, Zhou Shuren should not stay in the household department, but Zhou Shuren was not in the household department, the household department would be even more short of silver, and many of his ideas could not be realized, so he was really entangled.
The emperor doesn't have the prince's entanglement, and it's good now.
Zhou Shuren won't talk about the rest, he has a good control of the measurement, originally he waited for his son to enter the Ministry of Rites, and then thought of sending envoys abroad, but now because the foreign envoys put it forward first, it was a little earlier, which is not bad.
Ministry of Rites, Changyi was a little dumbfounded, yesterday his father said that he would not make a will so soon, but today's will is coming, he became the eight-rank official of the Ministry of Rites, the eight-rank ambassador, and he still stood stupidly after receiving the will.
It was Wu Ming who took the silver to the father-in-law who announced the decree, and then shook his hand, "Come back to your senses." β
Changyi's eyes widened, "I'm really an official?" β
Wu Ming smiled, "Yes, I became an official." β
Changyi's eyes are red, he also has an official body, he entered the Ministry of Rites, if it weren't for the wrong place, he would have wanted to squat and cry for a while, and now his mood is very complicated, although the official of the eighth grade is not high, but he realized the impossible, yes, it's all because of his father, these are all arranged by his father.
Wang Yi didn't go to court today, but he knew that there were many officials left behind after the court this morning, "It should be your father's reason." β
Changyi also thought so, this morning Lord Wang said, let him steady, but the will came down at noon, he now wants to see his father very much, and at the same time feels that his father is too powerful.
Because of the relationship between the two families, Wang Yi took great care of Changyi, and when he saw Changyi, he was excited and reminded Changyi, "You are now an eighth grade, but it is difficult to rise, and you also know your own shortcomings, your confidence is language, so you have to work harder." β
Changyi's heart was hot, he knew that it would be difficult for him to ascend, "I remember." β
The Zhou family, Zhulan sent away the good news, and saw Zhao crying, Zhao wiped his tears indiscriminately, "Mother, I am happy." β
Zhulan understands that this second room doesn't look at making a lot of money, in fact, it is the most lacking in confidence, "The future will get better and better, today is a day of great joy, and the monthly silver has doubled." β
Zhao wiped away his tears, "Mother, should we send a letter to the Hu family." β
Zhulan knew Zhao's thoughts, "Go ahead." β
Ning Guogong's mansion, Ning Guogong said to his two sons: "Zhou Shuren has made the impossible possible, it's amazing, it's amazing." β
Don't look at the small official position, it is also impossible.
Ning Hui, "It's not the time for the Zhou family to just enter Beijing, the Zhou family has taken root in the capital steadily, and the son can already see the prosperity of the Zhou family in the future." β
Not to mention anything else, Zhou Shuren can get an official position for the white-bodied Zhou Changyi, not to mention the grandchildren of the Zhou family, the grandsons of the Zhou family are all reading, and the eldest grandson and the eldest son of the second room are all reading materials.
Looking at the future from the perspective of children and grandchildren, these are the foundation of the prosperity of the Zhou family.
Ning Xu listened to the words of the second brother, and was worried, one of the grandchildren of the Ning family was mediocre and one of them had poor bones, and there were few babies among the great-grandchildren, who could look okay at present, who knew that in the future, with the addition of the Du family, he would be irritable when he thought about it.
When Ning Guogong saw his youngest son looking at him, he could see at a glance that his youngest son was depressed, he was never a soft-hearted person, let alone gamble on the future of the Ning family, the Ning family sacrificed too much, and what he wanted was not the family inheritance.
Half an hour later, Ning Hui returned to the courtyard and heard the lady complaining.
Du Shi sat with a bad face, "I just got pregnant, don't you see that my mother has many treasures, I send things to the Hou Mansion every day, sour and spicy girls, a girl who must be pregnant, a girl is a baby here, Song gave birth to a boy, why don't you send more things." β
Ning Hui listened quietly, and he didn't refute, because he knew that it was useless to refute, and the more he said, the more Du Shi felt wronged, and after listening, he turned around and left the courtyard.
In the evening, the Zhou family was jubilant, Changyi drank a lot of wine because he was happy, and after the meal, Changyi followed his father.
Zhou Shuren, "If you don't go back to the yard to rest, what are you doing with me?" β
He ate and walked in the yard, and Changyi followed him step by step, strange and uncomfortable.
Changyi was not drunk, his eyes were bright, "Dad, my son will work hard to learn the language, and he will definitely fight for you." β
Shuren Zhou, "...... That's the promotion method you came up with? β
Changyi blinked, "No, isn't it?" β
Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes, "No, just can say no, but also be able to write, translate, foreign books have been translated, this is a merit, especially useful books, son, you have to have ideals and ambitions, such as sorting out some foreign books that are useful to the country." β
Changyi's eyes widened, his father's words opened his eyes, and he felt a sense of pride that Zhou Shuren was his father!
