The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Zhou Buzhang rushed out, his face full of disbelief, and asked, "Zhi'an, what happened?"

"Why is it so noisy outside?"

"Has something happened?"

Shen Zhian glanced at him indifferently and said, "It's nothing, just some troublemakers causing trouble. Don't worry about it, go back and read your novel."

When Shen Zhian said this, his tone clearly carried a hint of dissatisfaction, obviously indicating his displeasure with Zhou Buzhang.

Such a big thing happened in her family, but the husband she married didn't even know the details. He did nothing but read novels and live a life of debauchery every day.

She has to shoulder the burden of the entire family!

Zhou Buzhang didn't notice Shen Zhian's emotions, and even if he had, he wouldn't have had time to care. He just impatiently asked, "What do you mean, 'leave it alone'?"

"They broke down the gate of my Zhou family's house."

"I am the head of the Zhou family. They've broken down my gate; how can I ignore it?"

Shen Zhian's temper flared up, and he couldn't help but say, "Oh, so you do know you're the one who crashed into your own front door. Well then, you should pay more attention to things at home."

"Such a large business, and you completely ignore it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Buzhang said, "Isn't this what you asked for? You handle all the business matters, not letting me get involved, and saying I'm not good at it and all I need to do is provide money..."

Shen Zhian interrupted, coldly saying, "If I don't let you operate it, can't you even show some concern?"

"You were indifferent before, but now you're showing concern?"

"Wow, you're quite the perfect husband!"

This was a rare verbal battle between the two, and it was also a rare instance that Zhou Buzhang held his own against Shen Zhian in their conversation. Previously, he was clumsy with words and would always be stammering when Shen Zhian retorted.

Even though he performed exceptionally well this time due to his excitement, he still lost. So he stopped wasting words with Shen Zhian and went straight to the door to open it.

Shen Zhian acted first, grabbing him: "Zhou Buzhang, what are you doing?"

"Let me open the door and see what's going on!" Zhou Buzhang said anxiously. "So many people are gathered at my door, don't I need to find out what's going on?"

"When word gets out, all the prestige I, Zhou Buzhang, have built up over half a lifetime will be completely wiped out."

Zhou Buzhang explained it very clearly, but Shen Zhian still tried to stop him. However, he knew that he couldn't stop him any longer, so he directly told the truth: "Since that's the case, Zhou Buzhang, then I'll tell you."

"After the martial arts school went bankrupt, the creditors came knocking on the door."

"Creditors?" Zhou Buzhang was surprised for a moment, then exclaimed in shock, "Didn't you say that the money lent out would be returned soon, and that you would pay back all the money owed to those creditors?"

"What? That million taels hasn't come back yet?"

Zhou Buzhang had to swallow his pride and borrow a million taels of silver. He wasn't too happy when Shen Zhian took it, since the martial arts school had gone out of business.

He always took the money from the house without caring how he used it, and Shen Zhian seemed so confident that he thought Shen Zhian could handle it well.

Shen Zhian later told him that he would definitely handle it well, but... is this the result of handling it well?

Surrounded at home by so many creditors?

"We can't get the money back for now..." Shen Zhian remained calm. "After all, that money is of great importance. Although we swallowed our anger for a while because of it, the reward we'll get in the end will be beyond your imagination!"

"So, forget about that one million taels of silver."

"but……"

After a pause, Shen Zhian continued, "There's no need to be too anxious about the current situation. It's just a matter of being blocked at the gate. There are government officials in Yunjing; do you think these people would dare to break in?"

"Besides, you retreated due to injuries, but you still have the strength. You might be slightly weaker against powerful soldiers on the battlefield, but against these ordinary people, you can easily take on ten of them."

"What are you afraid of?"
