Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!

Chapter 1750: Let You Take a Look, But Return It

Zhou Shuren knew a bit more, "They pulled some strings, and they’ve already returned to their residence in the capital."Zhulan, "..."

She thought she could watch a good show, but it felt like it ended with a fizzle. Even with solid evidence, nothing happened to the young masters.

Zhou Shuren continued, "This also shows that the Duke Residence is just a shell with a name."

Zhulan was quite speechless, "I think the Emperor also finds it hard to articulate."

Zhou Shuren chuckled softly, "Hmm."

The next day, Zhulan thought about it and still booked a private room at the teahouse. Lady Li was busy staying at home, Zhao Shi and Lady Hu had plans, only Su Xuan wanted to see the Duke Residence make a fool of itself, and went to the teahouse together.

At the teahouse, news travels fastest here, just waiting there one could get firsthand information.

Inside the palace, the Crown Prince whispered, "The trial should have started by now."

The Emperor didn’t want to hear it, "I thought the old thing would be hiding some of his power, huh."

The Crown Prince replied, "With your attitude last year, who would dare rely on the Duke Residence? Even if someone did before, after so many years of silence, the tiger has lost its fangs, who would still regard the Duke Residence, which only has a title, highly?"

The Emperor sneered, "We still have to give the Duke of Yongan some more leverage."

The Crown Prince asked, "Should I interfere this time?"o court, and asked, "Isn’t this too few people?"

"You’ve asked me eight times already."

Zhulan was worried, "I’m afraid Chang Zhi is in danger."

Zhou Shuren said, "I’ve sent people to follow him secretly."

Zhulan was surprised that her son would leave so early, hadn’t leaked the news yet, once it leaked, just thinking about it made her heart skip a beat, "I’m going to the temple tomorrow."

Zhou Shuren, "??"

Zhulan, "That’s settled."

Zhou Shuren was amused and helpless, "Chang Zhi is very capable!"

He’s been in the bureaucracy for so many years, and after walking the government hall for many years, Chang Zhi’s scheming and tactics are not bad, last night his son even hinted to him to help if things got out of hand!

Zhulan looked at the time, waving her hand, "You should go to the government office."

Zhou Shuren asked, "Should I stay with you a while longer?"

"No need, you go ahead and work."

Just after the new year, the Ministry of Revenue was very busy and couldn’t do without Shuren, she would be fine lying down for a while.

In the Hanlin Academy, Gu Sheng heard the news upon entering, Master Zhou went to assist in the new discovery of ancient books, so he would leave the Hanlin Academy for a while.

He also transferred several Scholars to assist in the ancient book restoration.

Gu Sheng blinked, it’s true, what he had suspected for a while. The days without Master Zhou truly felt unusual.

Gu Sheng returned to his room and looked towards Zhuo Guyu’s direction, surprisingly he was there, Zhuo Guyu’s perseverance impressed him.

Yesterday, the Duke Residence lost face, it was talked about everywhere, it’s said that the accused young masters were arrogantly drinking in the tavern.

Zhuo Guyu bowed his head to handle his tasks, he thought he would be ashamed and angry, instead, he felt particularly calm and clearer about what he could grasp and should do.

Zhuo Guyu sensed Gu Sheng’s gaze, nodded in acknowledgement, and then continued with his tasks.

Gu Sheng raised an eyebrow, he sensed Zhuo Guyu’s growth, finally shedding the halo of the Duke Residence, which might be a good thing for Zhuo Guyu?

In the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren had been busy all morning, stretching his neck, at this time Jinyan came in, "Sir, Master Wang sent someone to deliver a box for you."

Zhou Shuren raised an eyebrow, "Bring it over."

Jinyan placed the box on the table and then exited the room, standing guard at the door.

The box wasn’t locked, Zhou Shuren opened it, inside were several notebooks, he recognized the handwriting, picking them up to browse, they were actually notes from the old man before he passed away.

Zhou Shuren didn’t rush to read them but instead picked up the letter in the box, then was rendered speechless, it consisted only of five words, "Lend them to you."

The most valuable thing the old man left behind wasn’t wealth, the Wang family already had plenty of riches, the most valuable were the old man’s insights and reflections!
