CHAPTER 1581: CHAPTER 1581: 10,000 TAELS

Marquis Zhou Residence, Xue Han didn’t bring the child back, Zhulan didn’t see Lin Xi, "Did Lin Xi also attend the banquet at Shangguan House?"

Xue Han shook her head, "No, Lin Xi was taken into the palace early in the morning. The little princess misses her sister."

Zhulan, "Isn’t there also the eldest princess?"

"The eldest princess seldom sees the little princess, they are not close, Lin Xi often goes to the palace, the little princess is more attached to Lin Xi."

Zhulan was unwilling to talk more, "Why did you come today?"

"I came to deliver the invitation personally to my parents."

Zhulan had noticed the invitation long ago, she was puzzled and took a look; it was an invitation from Ning Duke Residence, "Is Ning Duke taking Xiaxia back to the residence?"

Xue Han was also reluctant, "Yes, the date is set. At that time, Ning Duke Residence will hold a feast and invite my parents to drink."

Zhulan carefully observed her daughter, seeing her calm expression, felt reassured, "Did you discuss Xiaxia’s arrangement?"

"Five days later, we will return to the Prince’s Residence to stay for two days, Xiaxia agreed."

Regarding the youngest son’s precocity, the father and the Emperor lamented. Though the youngest son was not in good health, he was extremely clever.

Xue Han continued, "Mother, the Imperial Orphanage has produced a few excellent female doctors, do you want them?"

Zhulan widened her eyes, "Graduated?"

"No, those who can work are a few older ones, with quite good talent, so they continue to study while working. These ten female doctors are very in demand, Daughter got the news first, if you want, I’ll send one back."

Zhulan snorted, "Even those female doctors who can’t work are on someone’s mind."

Xue Han, "Yes, autumn harvest season is approaching, marriages are increasing, and everyone wants to find a female doctor as dowry. Female doctors are very sought after."

She is from the Qin Prince Residence, with no movements in the palace, naturally informed her first, so ten are not enough to distribute.

Zhulan chuckled, shook her head, "I don’t need it."

Xue Han was aware.

Shangguan House, Wen Ling held back and held back, seeing Shangguan Jia wasn’t noticing this side, couldn’t resist, stood up, and walked to Zhou Yuwen’s front, "Miss Zhou, your reputation is not well-known, few of the young ladies in this garden know you. Today is a rare opportunity, let us witness Miss Zhou’s talents?"

Yu Yi, "..."

Wen Ling doesn’t like Yu Wen much, coming here to seek ridicule at this occasion? Haven’t learned enough lessons?

Yu Wen attended banquets with her mother often, practicing a skill: she could sit and sleep. Just now she was using the fan to cover her face, since the thoughts of the people in the garden were rather dull, she might as well sleep, so ended up!

Yu Wen was unhappy, the pressure was low, seeing the surrounding young ladies looking at her, Yu Wen tugged the corner of her mouth, first pointing at her own face, "Is this lady beautiful?"

Wen Ling was somewhat dumbfounded. How could she shamelessly boast about herself, the surrounding young ladies were also speechless.

Yu Wen smiled squinting, "Look, now doesn’t everyone remember me."

Yu Die and Yu Jiao, the two sisters shook their shoulders, if the occasion weren’t inappropriate, they would surely laugh heartily.

Yu Wen didn’t want to continue answering, covered her face with a fan.

Wen Ling was seething, also needed to endure, today wasn’t the time for you to hold on, "How about Miss Zhou compose a poem with us? Your father loves to read, so it shouldn’t be difficult for you."

Yu Wen, "I won’t, don’t use my father to bind me. My father is my father, I am me."

She more wanted to say ’you’re too ugly, not interested,’ but couldn’t, privately it’s okay to say. With so many young ladies here!

Shangguan Jia noticed this side, her expression unchanged, but feared it might escalate, one side was the Empress’s kin, the other was Marquis Zhou Residence, got up and came over, "I’ve asked the maid to change new tea, how about everyone sit and taste it?"

The face of the future Crown Princess Consort needed to be given, Wen Ling, unwilling, also had to smile and return, intimately placing her arm around Shangguan Jia’s, showing closeness, "Great, I’ll definitely taste it well, heard the Crown Prince has sent a lot of good tea."

Shangguan Jia’s smile widened but did not reach her eyes. As for her future husband, Shangguan Jia certainly paid attention, the court praised the Crown Prince highly, she was delighted every time she heard it, but she was also very smart, whether the Crown Prince had her in his eyes, she could see.

Shangguan Jia nodded at Yu Wen, Yu Wen smiled, as if discovering something.

The subsequent banquet didn’t have much waves, just verbal sparring, no substantial sorrow, all were mental blows.

The Zhou sisters left quite early, took a carriage back to the residence, encountered Qin Prince Residence’s carriage on the way.

Lin Xi just left the palace, signaled the carriage to stop, "Cousin."

Yu Die asked, "Wasn’t Shangguan House inviting you today?"

The other marquis house young ladies went, she kept looking for her cousin!

Lin Xi explained, "Sent an invitation to me, unfortunately, I entered the palace today and couldn’t go."

Lin Xi glanced inside the carriage, saw cousin Yu Wen sleeping on cousin Yu Yi’s shoulder, speechless for a while.

Yu Die, due to Lin Xi pulling the curtain strongly, saw someone else inside the carriage and felt a twitch; it turned out it was the Crown Prince, hurriedly pretended not to see, "We’re going back first."

"Okay."

The Crown Prince glanced once just now, also speechless, this Zhou family fifth miss is indeed unique.

The next morning’s court, Zhou Shuren listened to the memorial of the eldest grandson of the Wen family, glanced at the Emperor, thinking the autumn harvest seemed to be upon them again, the Wen family decided to bring their eldest grandson back this year.

The Emperor was expressionless, the Wen family timed well, seeing all the ministers looking at him, tugged the corner of his mouth, "If the autumn harvest can indeed collect the grain amount stated in the memorial, he may return to the capital."

Zhou Shuren thought, staying outside honestly was better, could temper his will, now leveraging the Empress’s health, using the Emperor’s affection for the Empress, though achieving the goal, the Emperor was surely keeping a record, now tolerating more, waiting until the Empress passes, ha ha.

Evidently, old man Wen didn’t think so, the eldest grandson being the heir, had grown much these two years, feared he’d continue pioneering outside, while the daughter is still alive, must bring him back to the capital, and as soon as possible.

Zhou Shuren felt someone watching him, rolled his eyes, he wouldn’t voice opposition anyway, the Emperor would keep accounts.

Today’s court ended quickly, the Wen family got their wish, old man Wen said, "When my eldest grandson returns to the capital, I’ll definitely invite Marquis Zhou for a drink. My grandson’s growth is much owed to Marquis Zhou."

Zhou Shuren rolled up his sleeves, this old man, seeing someone blocking in front of old man Wen, Zhou Shuren shook his sleeve, "Why fear this Marquis? Don’t be afraid, this Marquis is a civilized person, only speaks, never acts."

Everyone, "..."

Zhou Shuren extended his hand to old man Wen, "Old man, if you’re truly grateful to this Marquis, this Marquis doesn’t drink, you just need to give silver, this Marquis seldom teaches others. Look at the memorial written by young master Wen today; this Marquis is amazed, now young master Wen is so outstanding, if I ask less, it would dishonor you, how about ten thousand taels."

Everyone was dumbfounded, shameless, bah, as always, there’s no face, and what stunning memorial, clearly everyone knew it was ghostwritten, even rapid growth couldn’t remold, everyone saw old man Wen’s face turning green.

Wong Ju shook his head, truly forgetful, Zhou Shuren never lost an argument, very good at entrapping with his speech.

Zhou Residence, early in the morning, Zhulan received a letter from home, after reading, frowned tightly.
