Its just political trickery. Otherwise, why do you think he suddenly put Gu Chengrui under Princess Ping Yangs name?

Princess Ping Yang didnt even enter the Gu familys ancestral grave. Actually, shes no longer considered a wife of the Gu family.

Zhou Huaiming heard him mention this and immediately understood the crux of the matter. His heart sank as he said, He wants to place Brother Gu in the limelight.

Exactly. Speaking of which, its also my fault. Previously, he had no intention of rewarding them, and I was the one who recommended them; 1 didnt expect such an outcome.

You cant say that. Theyve contributed a lot to promoting the concept of eating potatoes instead of rice.

Since thats the case, lets give her a push. Even if being Princess Ping Yangs son doesnt have a t.i.tle, he should at least have an official position.

Lets wait a little longer, and well ask the couples opinion on this later. Dont make things worse.

Thats true. Zhou Huaiming nodded.

He remembered another purpose for tonight and asked curiously, By the way, there are many girls at the banquet tonight.

If theres any you fancy, you have to act in advance. Otherwise, the Empress will probably not arrange for a girl with powerful in-laws for you.

Not everyone is like Grandpa, wholeheartedly acting for our country.

So it doesnt matter who you choose. As long as she comes from a clear background and isnt a spy, its fine.

Zhou Huaiming nodded and didnt say anything else. Instead, he asked, You should have a goal so we can vet her in advance.

After hearing this, King Rui hesitated for a moment. Lets do so then. 1 have an eye on the granddaughter of the Grand Scholar Sun, Sun Miaoke.

As well as Hong Suzhi from the Hong family of the Minister of Human Resources.

These two are decent, especially Sun Miaoke. She has the reputation of being the capitals most talented woman. Moreover, Grand Scholar Sun is n.o.ble, so he wont arouse the Emperors suspicion.

Dont just talk about me; youre half a year older than me. Do you have anyone you like? If you do, you must hurry up and take care of it. Otherwise, itll be too late once your sweetheart marries someone else.

Zhou Huaiming was stunned for a moment before shaking his head. Im not in a hurry, especially when Im not at home often. Lets wait and see.

When King Rui heard this, he knew that Zhou Huaiming was thinking of the deaths of his grandmother, aunt, and cousin-in-law. He stood up and patted his shoulder. I guarantee no one will dare touch the Zhou family within five years.

Five years later no one can touch the Zhou family.

Zhou Huaiming paused for a moment before he understood what he meant. He smiled and said, Then Ill look for it.

Yes, youre not young anymore. Settle down early and give birth to a son and a daughter, and Grandpa will be at ease.

Zhou Ying entered her inters.p.a.ce and first went to the Zhou family through the Mother G.o.ddess Temple.

Madam Zhous Pine Crane Hall was now filled with people.

Zhou Jiaqing kneeled on the ground and wiped her tears, looking wronged.

However, no one in the room really cared about her.

Especially her two stepsisters, three cousins, and their mother. Their gazes were even more unfriendly, and there was even some hatred.

Her actions today would hinder not only her own marriage but also those of her five younger sisters, who would also be implicated.

Of course, some people were also gloating, with Zhou Ying feeling the same way.

After a moment of silence, Second Aunt Zhou said, Mother, based on the situation, its better to send Jiaqing to the manor to stay for some time. It wont be too late to bring her back after the rumors pa.s.s.

Thats right, Mother. She wont be able to partic.i.p.ate in the consort selection this time. Why doesnt she leave and hide from the trouble? Second Uncle Zhou echoed.

You, you thats just cruel. Zhou Jiaqing heard them and cried even louder..
