Zhulan got up a little late in the morning, Zhou Shuren washed up and changed her clothes, Zhulan got up and saw Zhou Shuren sitting on a chair looking at her, Zhulan was in good spirits, touching her face, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

Zhou Shuren looked at Zhulan carefully, Zhulan's face was ruddy, and the spirit in her eyes was also very full, and she thought that Zhulan slept very peacefully last night, so she retracted her worries, "It's nothing, I just think you've been looking good lately." ”

Zhulan smiled, "I think so too, maybe I've had a good rest recently." ”

Zhou Shuren originally wanted to finish the embankment and take Zhulan to go around the neighborhood, but now that there is one more Shi Qing, he has to think about how to satisfy the emperor, Zhou Shuren couldn't help but touch his hair, he felt that his hair loss in the past two years was serious.

Not long after Zhou Shuren went to the yamen, Shi Qing came in person, and Zhou Shuren hung Shi Qing for a while before going to the front hall to see Shi Qing.

Shi Qing's dress is very different from before, he used to be dressed as a noble son, but now he is much more low-key, simple and simple, the only thing that can be different is the jade pendant on his body.

Zhou Shuren looked at Shi Qing, Shi Qing also looked at Lord Zhou, he hadn't paid much attention to Lord Zhou before, his memory had long been blurred, this meeting of Lord Zhou carved a deep trace in his heart, Lord Zhou wore an official uniform and did not smile, although there was no contempt for him in his eyes, but it was all indifferent, looking at him coldly, he felt pressured, this is the official authority, his heart is hot.

Shi Qing stood up respectfully and saluted, "Student Shi Qing has seen Master Zhou. ”

Zhou Shuren snorted, "Shi Gongzi sits." ”

Shi Qing sighed, he didn't put it in his eyes before, in a blink of an eye, he not only had to be respectful, but also to please, Shi Qing continued to salute, "The student and Master Zhou went out of Pingzhou together, this year Tongsheng won the fifth, the student came from Pingzhou to respect the adult, so he came cheekily to apprentice." ”

Shi Qing thought of the results of the government examination, and sneered in his heart, he should have been able to enter the top three, just because he was originally a businessman, and his score was only fifth, if he was not willing to spend money, it would be difficult for him to keep his fifth place.

Zhou Shuren looked at Shi Qing playfully, "Although I am a little older, I am not confused, Shi Gongzi's letter yesterday was not written like this." ”

Shi Qing thought about it all night last night, and felt that it was better to be honest, the more calculating he was, the more annoying he would be, he didn't know much about the emperor, and he only saw the emperor once, and he didn't know much about the emperor's henchman Lord Zhou, but he knew that compared with Lord Zhou, he had no weight in the emperor's heart.

Shi Qing still bent over, "I hope that adults don't worry about students, students also have hardships......"

Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes, Shi Qing's reaction was really fast, he basically said what happened in the capital, and vaguely revealed that it was the problem that the emperor gave him, and he was honest enough, but he also kicked the ball to him, Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes, "You are very smart." ”

Shi Qing lowered his head, he couldn't be smart, he would have died long ago if he wasn't smart, "I still hope that Lord Zhou will accept the students." ”

Zhou Shuren can't accept Shi Qing so simply, he sometimes feels that he is quite aggrieved, although most of the two years in Lizhou City have been aggrieved by others, but in the face of absolute imperial power, he still can't do the emperor, and finally has weight, but it is not enough to compete with the powerful nobles in the capital.

Now they all respect him as Lord Zhou, in addition to the people, the nobles in the capital are polite to him are all given to him by the emperor, once the emperor's favor is gone, his end will not be good.
