When it was almost dawn, Zhou Ruhai's friend sent out to find Zhou Zhou Ming's person finally came back, but it didn't bring good news.

This messenger led his subordinates to look for many places overnight, but they didn't find Zhou Ming's figure, and according to the feedback of these messengers, there seemed to be something big going on in the capital last night, but because of their low official position, and the news of that major event was very tightly blocked, they didn't know what happened.

After getting the news, Zhou Ruhai was disappointed at first, he thought that as long as the people from the government were dispatched, it would be easy to find his son, but he didn't expect that his son would disappear so completely, even if the people from the government were dispatched, there was no news in the end.

Although Zhou Ruhai hasn't returned home yet, he doesn't know the results of his family's search, but he is already dead in his heart, after all, no matter how hard his family members try, their ability to find them will definitely not be as good as the people in the government.

After thinking of these, Zhou Ruhai came from it, when he was young, his biggest dream was to soar in the officialdom and make the foundation of the Zhou family bigger and stronger, but he only read the books of sages and sages, and after entering the officialdom, he found that it was even more difficult to be promoted by his own ability.

Seeing those who were officials in the same dynasty, in order to be promoted, stammering the face of his boss, Zhou Ruhai felt disgusted and despised, and gradually understood in his heart that it was impossible for him to be as flattering as them in order to be promoted, and it was precisely for this reason that he could not have much development in officialdom.

After having this consciousness in his heart, his competitive heart in the officialdom gradually weakened, but he put all his energy on his family, hoping that one day, among his juniors, there will be a better talent than himself, in that case, even if he does not flatter those bureaucrats, he can also rise to the top with his ability.

But Zhou Ruhai's idea is also difficult to implement, the Zhou family is thin, several generations of single transmission, to Zhou Ruhai's generation, the situation has not improved at all, but has a tendency to intensify.

After Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou got married, no heirs were born in six or seven years, which was a big deal for the family, after all, the Zhou family had a huge foundation at that time, if there were no heirs as heirs, Zhou Ruhai was not only ashamed of his ancestors, but also in the future, after a hundred years, who would this family business be handed over?

Both of them are scholars, although they are anxious, they don't show it, they still get along with each other like guests, and they love each other very much.

But after another two years, Mrs. Zhou's stomach did not move at all, this next week Zhou Ruhai is really a little anxious, he asked for medical advice everywhere, and wanted to let his wife give birth to a son and a half daughter as soon as possible through such efforts, but the so-called speed is not reached, his chaotic approach, not only did not achieve any effect, but let some quacks take the opportunity to make a lot of money.

Mrs. Zhou was also anxious, and she even persuaded Zhou Ruhai during this period to let him take a few concubines.

In fact, what woman would want to share her husband with another woman? Mrs. Zhou can't do this, after all, her stomach is not angry, if she blindly counts on herself, if she doesn't give birth, won't the Zhou family be the last?

She is a weak woman and can't afford this crime, so for the sake of her father-in-law and the entire Zhou family, she persuaded Zhou Ruhai to take a concubine several times.

Although Zhou Ruhai was anxious to have a son, he was not so stupid, he read the sage books all the year round, he loved his mother deeply, and soon after the two got married, he made a promise to Mrs. Zhou that he would only marry her alone in this life and never take a concubine.

As the so-called gentleman said, it is difficult to chase a horse, Zhou Ruhai will never let down his wife, even if he has no children in this life, he will never violate his promise.

Mrs. Zhou saw that her husband cherished herself so much, and she was moved, she worked harder to cooperate with the doctor's conditioning, and finally the hard work paid off, when Zhou Ruhai was in his thirties, Mrs. Zhou finally became pregnant, and successfully gave birth to a boy, this boy is Zhou Ming.

After all the hard work, it was easy to get such a precious son, and it was a seedling in a thousand hectares, needless to say, the whole Zhou family loved this son.

And Zhou Zhou Ming himself is also angry, he awakened the martial soul at a young age, and the grade of the martial soul is very high, it can be said that there is no one in ten thousand, as long as he develops smoothly, the future will definitely be immeasurable.

Seeing that his son was so good, Zhou Ruhai couldn't be happier in his heart, he pinned all his unfulfilled expectations on his son, and set a very good family business for him early.

Zhou Ruhai looked at everything else very lightly, and even the things in the officialdom, he turned a deaf ear, sometimes he only went to the yamen to order a mao, and found that there was nothing to do, so he went home directly and cultivated his son carefully.

As for the fact that the yamen often punished him and demoted him, he didn't care at all, because he knew very well in his heart that as long as Zhou Ming was cultivated well, as soon as he entered the officialdom, he could get back all the things he had lost, and he would get them back twice.

Just when Zhou Ruhai was full of confidence in his son and planning his future, bad luck suddenly came, and Zhou Ming was seriously injured in order to save Lin Ajiao, not only lost his martial soul, but also almost died.

Zhou Ruhai almost lost all his family wealth, and finally saved Zhou Ming's life, but his body was sluggish, and he was always sick, no matter how he was conditioned, his body never improved.

This incident is a huge blow to the Zhou family, Zhou Ming was originally a bright star, almost illuminating the future of the Zhou family, but this star suddenly fell, Zhou Ruhai is old, and if he wants to focus on officialdom again and make some achievements, it is no longer possible.

At that time, seeing his son become like this, Zhou Ruhai's heart was like a knife, and he almost committed suicide several times, but when he thought that his son was still young and needed to take care of himself, the huge Zhou family, if it was handed over to their orphans and widows like this, how could their mother and son support this family, and if they were bullied by their subordinates, even if they were under Jiuquan, they would not be able to die.

It was precisely because he was worried about Zhou Ming and Mrs. Zhou that Zhou Ruhai held on and passed the most difficult moment.

After that, although Zhou Zhou Ming has been sick, but his mind is still very good, Zhou Ruhai knew that he could no longer practice martial arts, so he changed his mind and wanted him to study, although it is difficult to read a book, but it is still easy to let him eat a bite of food in the future.

Originally, Zhou Ruhai thought that his son's fate would not change again, but what he didn't expect was that after getting married, Zhou Ming had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Not only did he gradually improve his health and regain his health, but he also had a martial arts cultivation, which was great news for Zhou Ruhai.

And what made Zhou Ruhai even happier was that Zhou Ming entrusted the relationship with his father-in-law on Monday and went to the south of the city to inspect the yamen on an errand, although the position was only a small transcription, but he only did it for a short time, and he solved the case of the woman's disappearance and became famous all over the world.

When Zhou Ming became the hero who solved the woman's disappearance case, Zhou Ruhai couldn't even believe that it was true, after all, his son was frail and sickly, and even living was a luxury, but now he is not only healthy, but also has a very high martial arts cultivation, and he is full of a sense of justice.

With such a brave and fearless son, Zhou Ruhai felt that all the previous efforts were worth it, and he even looked forward to his son making persistent efforts to make meritorious contributions to the court in the future, and at the same time, take back all the inheritance that the Zhou family had lost before.

But just when he was full of confidence in his son, a cruel accident happened again, and Zhou Ming's sudden disappearance cast a deep shadow on the entire Zhou family.

Coming out of that friend's house and walking on the way home, Zhou Ruhai had mixed feelings and was in great pain, because he knew in his heart that Zhou Zhou Ming was a famous official, and now he was famous all over the world, and his martial arts cultivation was not bad, and it was not easy to make such a hot character disappear suddenly.

In the entire Great Chu Kingdom, there were only a handful of people who could do this, and he couldn't think of anyone else who had the motive to do this except for being strict.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ruhai's heart was like ashes, he knew something about Yan Qiu's cruel methods, Zhou Zhou Ming could be said to have openly slapped Yan Qiu in the face before, a narrow-minded and vicious person like Yan Qiu would never be able to bear this breath, with his character, he would definitely poison Zhou Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ruhai also understood this truth before, and he had mentioned this matter to Zhou Ming several times, asking him to be more careful and not to be careless.

But Zhou Zhou Ming has a different opinion on this matter, he feels that the woman's disappearance case has just passed, Yan Qiu will definitely not act rashly, after all, if he really does it to himself, then he doesn't openly tell the whole world that he is the one who committed the poison?

Yan Qiu can sit in the current high position, he is definitely not a fool, so he will definitely not do such a stupid thing.

After knowing Zhou Ming's idea, Zhou Ruhai also felt that it made sense at the time, so he relaxed his vigilance, but what he never expected was that the final result of the matter seemed to be the same as he thought at the beginning.

Thinking that his son might have passed away, Zhou Ruhai's heart was like a knife, and he felt that the whole world seemed to lose its color all of a sudden, and he regretted that he didn't stick to his idea at the beginning, so that his son suffered this catastrophe.

Because this blow was too huge, Zhou Ruhai seemed to be ten years old overnight, and even when he walked, he trembled and shook three times.

If Zhou Zhou Ming and Lin Ajiao could have a son and a half daughter, Zhou Ruhai might still be able to get a little comfort, but God didn't even give him this thought.
