After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion

Chapter 59: "Water Control"

When Ji Yunzhang and Rong Peilan returned to Xiangguo Temple, she met two unexpected people.

Pterocarpus chinensis and Ulmus pumila.

Mother Zhou was waiting for them in the room. When she saw the prince and the young lady coming back, she stepped forward and pointed at the two maids.

"Young Madam needs to take care of him for a few days. We didn't bring many people with us. Madam knows that although these two people made mistakes, they are people you are used to serving."

"Madam has already told us to use these two people for now. If they are not effective, we will send them back home."

Bai Yu immediately knelt down and kowtowed twice, "Young Madam, I know I was wrong. I will no longer desire what I don't deserve. I will serve you well."

Qingtan knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying only softly, "Your servant Qingtan greets the young lady."

Rong Peilan asked the two to stand up. "Since mother asked you to come here, it means she is giving you a second chance. You go to look for Haitang, and she will arrange a place for you."

"Yes." Qingtan bowed and went out first.

Bai Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw the warning look in Zhou's mother's eyes, he closed his mouth and immediately followed Qingtan out.

After seeing the two men leave, Mother Zhou continued, "Madam said that Master Huiquan is a great doctor and allowed the young lady to strengthen her vitality here so that she can be healthy and suffer less during childbirth in the future."

"Mother is really thoughtful. Thank you, Madam Zhou, for making this special trip."

The wrinkles at the corners of Madam Zhou's eyes made her smile. "No way, an old woman can still run swiftly. This is as it should be!"

"Besides, if it weren't for the young lady's foresight, my eldest son would probably be idle at home now."

Mother Zhou took out another envelope from her bosom and handed it to Ji Yunzhang, "My Lord, this is what my son said he would give to you."

Ji Yunzhang took the envelope and said, "Yes."

Only after Mother Zhou left did he open the envelope, quickly read the letter, and then took out a tinder to burn it clean.

Seeing that he seemed to be lost in thought, Rong Peilan walked to the windowsill. On the small stove on the table was the Tremella soup that Haitang had been keeping warm.

As soon as her fingers touched the handle of the small ceramic stove, Ji Shizi had already grasped the handle and poured it into the porcelain bowl beside it.

With a flattering smile on his face, he held the bowl in both hands and handed it to her, "With your husband here, there is no need for you to do anything."

Rong Peilan looked at the smile on his face and had a bad feeling in her heart.

She knew it the next moment.

"My lady, I need something from you."

Rong Peilan: "..."

-

There have been many strange things happening in Yanjing recently.

The title that the Jin family cried out for.

The Ji family's reputation for false kindness.

A genius who suddenly appeared in the Shao family.

No one knew the genius Young Master Shao who suddenly appeared, but many people had heard of Princess Sheng Shao.

Prince Sheng is devoted to Buddhism and has converted to Buddhism for ten years. Princess Sheng has lived alone in the huge Prince Sheng Mansion for ten years, never going out of the front door or the back door.

Princess Sheng is almost never invited to any banquet in the city of Yanjing. She never comes, and over the years, no one has found her.

If she could not be seen at the palace banquet every year, I am afraid that few people in Yanjing would remember this princess.

The Shao family also gradually faded away among the aristocratic families of Yanjing.

Among the legitimate children of the Shao family, the eldest daughter is the Princess of Sheng, the eldest son is the commander-in-chief of the city defense, the second daughter Yunying is unmarried, and the second son is the genius who suddenly emerged this time.

Shao Ze is only nine years old.

The reason why Shao Ze became famous this time was because a doctor from the Imperial College found an extremely brilliant "Flood Control Fu" in Shao's book.

Since the founding of this dynasty, we have recruited talents widely, and have been generous in recruiting talents who can deal with floods, mountain torrents, earthquakes and other disasters. In the past hundred years, there has only been one such talent, Zhou Shuguang, in the previous dynasty.

Now our dynasty has produced such a genius, although it is only superficial knowledge on paper, but this boy is only nine years old. Judging from this, his future is limitless!
In a short time, Shao Ze's handwritten copy of "Fu on Flood Control" had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yanjing.

It even alarmed His Majesty in the palace.

Shao Mansion.

Shao Jiye held the handwritten copy of "Fu on Flood Control" and looked at his young son kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet.

"You really didn't write this?"

Shao Ze's slightly plump body trembled under his father's majestic voice, "No, no..."

"Then why? Now the whole Kyoto is saying that my Shao family has produced a genius!" Shao Jiye's eyes widened.

This matter has already spread to the palace. If the eunuch had not issued an edict just now, he would still not know what good thing his good son had done!
"S-Son, I don't know..."

"You don't know? You don't know how this thing got to the palace?!"

Shao Jiye threw the thick stack in his hand on his head, "Do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

"The whole family will be executed, did you know that?"

"You know that the entire clan will be implicated!"

His roars became louder and louder.

Shao Ze was shaking, his voice already starting to cry, "I really don't know why my son was misunderstood like this..."

After hearing his words, Shao Jiye almost choked up, "I will be meeting the emperor tomorrow, and you are telling me now that it was a misunderstanding?!"

As he spoke, the stick in his hand was about to fall.

"I'll kill you right now, so as not to implicate the whole family!"

Shao Ze buried his head even lower, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his little face turned pale with fear.

Shao Wu hurried back from the camp. As soon as he stepped into the ancestral hall, he heard his father's roar and the family punishment that was about to be imposed on his younger brother.

"Father." He stepped forward to stop Shao Jiye's stick, "It doesn't matter who wrote it now."

Shao Jiye looked at his eldest son, "But..."

Shao Wu picked up the "Water Control Fu" on the ground and took a look at it. "Since this genius is already known to everyone, then Brother Ze is it."

Shao Jiye frowned and said, "I will see the emperor tomorrow..."

"Qiao Song." Shao Wu shouted without turning his head.

A young man in black appeared at the door, "Sir."

Shao Wu, "Take the Second Young Master to take a cold bath."

Shao Ze didn't even dare to raise his head. He could only be a puppet now.

"Yes." Qiao Song stepped into the ancestral hall and easily picked up Shao Ze, who was lying on the ground, with his two hands.

Shao Wu looked at the ancestral tablets in the ancestral hall, pondered for a while and said, "I feel sleepy, pass me the pillow. Father, you will accompany Zedi to the palace tomorrow. If His Majesty wants Zedi to go to the palace to study, you will refuse."

"How can I refuse this? Disobeying the order would mean..." Shao Jiye was troubled by his eldest son's request.

Shao Wu waved at him and whispered something in his ear.

Shao Jiye couldn't help but scolded in a low voice, "This is a capital crime!"

Shao Wu's face turned cold. "Father, you always say that this is a serious crime and should be executed. Those who respected you as Lord Shao have already joined the cabinet, but you are still wandering around."

"You are afraid of this and that. You are not dead, and neither are they. So what are you afraid of?"

Shao Jiye looked at his eldest son, opened his lips again and again, then gritted his teeth and made up his mind, and agreed, "Okay, I'll go!"
