Chapter 31: How to help her
Compared with Song Yuanjie, Xu Zhizhou's ability is not so great, and he only won one lift.
But this can't bear his cleverness, he was tied to the Prime Minister's Mansion early, although he has not been promoted over the years, he has not lost to Song Yuanjie at all.
But just a few days ago, the Prime Minister's Mansion drew a clear line with them, so Xu Zhizhou had a good try, what is the life of a household servant.
If he was still tied to the Prime Minister's Mansion, those people would mock him like this?
Xu Zhizhou secretly hated in his heart, but he didn't show it in front of him, and he was even more desperate to Shen Xingyue.
"This palace came here this time to ask, Lord Xu can help this palace check how many people." Shen Xingyue didn't beat around the bush, and directly stated her purpose.
Xu Zhizhou was shocked, and looked at Shen Xingyue cautiously: "What does the crown princess mean?" ”
"Presumably Lord Xu has also heard that the palace has recently held a charity event. Originally, this event could not be revealed at all, but Lord Xu is his own person, and this palace will not go around the bend with Lord Xu. She hooked her hand at Xu Zhizhou, and when Xu Zhizhou came over, she whispered.
"This matter of the palace is for the father and the queen mother, they all support the palace, and even have the intention of letting the palace carry out this kind of charity activities for a long time."
She said mysteriously, and Xu Zhizhou was also full of horror.
At first, he and some officials thought that this was Shen Xingyue's own idea, after all, it was Shen Xingyue who had been busy all the time, and Yu Liyuan had never shown up at all.
But now that he heard from Shen Xingyue's mouth that it was related to the two in the palace, Xu Zhizhou was not surprised.
"The first project of the charity is to sponsor ten orphans and provide for them to grow up, and if they are successful, they will belong only to the royal staff. Therefore, this palace will find you, Lord Xu, and want Lord Xu to check the details of those people, so that it is convenient to choose tomorrow. She deliberately stated her expectations for them after moving out of the emperor and empress, so that Xu Zhizhou thought that this was what the people above meant, that is, she wanted to scare him and make him dare not do anything.
"It's just to check the household registration, the junior official has a backup of the clan registration here, if the princess wants to check, check it directly." Xu Zhizhou was indeed frightened by Shen Xingyue.
At the same time, Xu Zhizhou also had a small expectation in his heart, since Shen Xingyue was willing to tell him about this matter, it proved that in fact, in his heart, Shen Xingyue was still biased towards the Xu family.
As soon as he thought that he could catch the prince's big ship, Xu Zhizhou felt that the whole person was overflowing.
He found the secret room where the clan records were placed and asked Shen Xingyue to find it, while he personally guarded it outside to avoid any accidents.
"Father, I heard that Shen Xingyue is here?" Xu Luoxue also got the news from her maid, asked about Xu Zhizhou's whereabouts, and hurried over.
Xu Zhizhou saw Xu Luoxue, his expression softened a little, this daughter has been very obedient since she was a child, and when she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she didn't get any benefits for him.
It's a pity that he was sent back by the Prime Minister's Mansion due to impulse, but Xu Zhizhou didn't feel lost, after all, the daughter raised in the Prime Minister's Mansion, even if he married outside, he would be able to find a good family.
"Falling snow, people are princesses, don't be so big and small." Xu Zhizhou pretended to reprimand, but there was still not much sternness on his face.
Although she was very reluctant to Shen Xingyue's identity, she was facing her father after all, and Xu Luoxue had to reluctantly nodded.
"What is she here for?" Xu Luoxue couldn't wait to ask.
"The crown princess is here to check the family name, and tomorrow's charity event will sponsor ten orphans to grow up, so let's check their details." Xu Zhizhou replied indifferently, he didn't have a good impression of this matter, his main focus was on the instructions of the two people in the palace.
Xu Luoxue frowned: "Father just agreed?" ”
"What? I'm just a household servant, she didn't look for the household department, but found me directly, she must have thoughts about our Xu family, if we can be close to His Royal Highness the Prince, then I can't say that we can still give you to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as a side concubine. Xu Zhizhou looked at his daughter in front of him and felt that his future was already bright.
In fact, he doesn't have only one daughter Xu Luoxue, there are several, but those daughters are all grown up by him since he was a child, and he is reluctant to use them.
Only Xu Luoxue was sent away when he was a child, he had no pity for Xu Luoxue, and his mind was full of thinking about how to use Xu Luoxue to make profits for himself.
"How can it be as simple as you think, she offended the daughter of Tobe Shangshu before, and she must not have been courted over there, so she came to us. If her father didn't agree to her, she would have made a fool of herself tomorrow. Xu Luoxue stomped her feet anxiously, why did her father still help Shen Xingyue.
Only then did Xu Zhizhou know the reason why Shen Xingyue came over, and he was also stunned.
"This ......" He didn't know about it at all, and now that Shen Xingyue has also entered, he may have promised, what else can he do?
Xu Luoxue only thought about stopping Shen Xingyue, and was about to go into the secret room to bring Shen Xingyue out, but was stopped by Xu Zhizhou.
"I have promised her, if you come out to make trouble at this time, the crown princess will have a bad impression of us, and His Royal Highness the crown prince wants to pinch us, isn't it a matter of minutes?" He shook his head, feeling that Xu Luoxue was too impulsive.
Xu Luoxue didn't feel aggrieved, and now Xu Zhizhou stopped her again, and glared at Xu Zhizhou before returning to her yard.
In fact, Xu Luoxue was not born in the lineage, her mother is just an aunt, that is, she can have a place here by relying on her in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
When she was a child, Xu Luoxue was not what she is now, it was all because of her mother, who was good at house fighting, who taught her those vicious methods, that she ruined Shen Xingyue step by step.
But who would have thought that the fool who had been sentenced to death suddenly opened up, not only losing face in her criticism, but also becoming an enviable princess.
"Falling snow, why are you in a bad mood? Didn't you go to your dad? When Xu Luoxue went out, it was in the name of looking for Xu Zhizhou, and she didn't say anything about Shen Xingyue's presence at all, so when she saw Xu Luoxue coming back with a disgruntled face, Xu's mother was also a little worried.
She is good at house fighting, but the eldest lady of the Xu family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she was injured when the two clashed, Xu's mother was no longer able to give birth, but the eldest lady directly gave birth to two sons and three daughters.
Now, she can only hope that her only daughter can have a good home and keep her position.
