When Lou Suzhen told Zhu Hao about Mrs. Qiao sending the beautiful woman, the carriage they were riding in was already approaching the capital.

Originally, she thought that there was no need to mention this kind of matter to Zhu Hao, since it was nothing to talk about anyway, and she didn't accept it, Zhu Hao was usually bothered by so many things, why bother Zhu Hao with such a trivial matter?

But when she was about to arrive in the capital, she had to summarize a lot of things. After all, she might not see Zhu Hao until she returned to the capital, so she mentioned this incident by the way.

The two rode in the same car, Zhu Hao went to Yongping Mansion in a hurry, but when he came back, he took his time and was not in a hurry.

"...I'll accept it if I give it to you?"

Zhu Hao lay on the soft pillow and said leisurely.

Lou Suzhen teased: "Is it the young master who wants to accept it? The young master knows that beautiful women are useless to me."

"Useful? Hehe."

Zhu Hao couldn't help but smile, "Beauty has many uses, even if it's just serving tea and water, isn't it good? I've already provoked a lot of love affairs, but I don't have the heart to worry about them."

Zhu Hao looks like he is still an honest and friendly first-time brother.

But in fact, he has his wife Sun Lan, Ouyang Fei who will be brought into the house, and Lu Zhanqing who is raised in a foreign house. He even provoked the princess Zhu San before... Zhu Hao himself doesn't like to deal with matters between men and women. He is already in a state of desperation, how dare he make troubles?

Lou Suzhen said: "Young master is back this time, Mr. Yang Ge hasn't left the court yet, I'm afraid you might be in some trouble."

Zhu Hao didn't answer.

In his original idea, he should wait until after Yang Tinghe became an official, and then return to the capital, so that he can roll up his sleeves and work hard when he returns.

But in fact, he returned to the capital two or three months earlier than expected. Yang Tinghe was still on the verge of retreating. Although Yang Tinghe had submitted four requests for resignation, Zhu Si did not approve it. Or...Zhu Hao taught Zhu Si to be patient, and he had to wait six or seven times before agreeing.

Now that Zhu Hao came back, he had to face the big problem of Yang Tinghe's suspicion.

Others may not understand this point, but Lou Suzhen sees it very clearly.

"It seems that the son has a strategy to deal with it."

Lou Suzhen looked much more relaxed, probably during the period of time in Yongping Mansion, she did not live very well, returning to the capital means that she can live a peaceful life for a few days, "If you have any orders, just send someone to let me know, concubine Whenever you are called."

At the end, Lou Suzhen deliberately changed her self-proclaimed "concubine body", as if to say, don't always treat me as a man.

You can also treat me as a woman.

I can give advice and help you in your daily life.

Zhu Hao thought to himself, she is really a considerate "big sister".

……

……

Zhu Hao and his party arrived at Chaoyang Gate in the east of the capital.

Someone came to greet me.

Yang Shen and Zhu Hao's friends from the Imperial Academy did not come, but Sun Jiao, Minister of the Household Department, eagerly came to meet his son-in-law, and Xu Jie, who had just been appointed as the head of the Household Department, came with Sun Jiao.

After Zhu Hao got off the carriage, Sun Jiao and Xu Jie walked over one after the other.

Zhu Hao walked forward slowly, and found that Xu Jie's face was full of depression.

Xu Jie had done a good job in the Imperial Academy, but because he went to Yongping Mansion with Yang Shen, he was transferred to be the head of the household department when he came back. Jinshi of the same subject is much better, but he was already an editor of Hanlin before, and he was somewhat unwilling to accept this huge gap.

This can only show that what Xu Jie did in Yongping Mansion was not approved by Yang Ting and his father and son, so he was directly thrown to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

"Jingde is back too?"

After a brief exchange of greetings with Zhu Hao, Sun Jiao quickly turned his attention to Lou Suzhen behind Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao thought to himself, you old pervert, you said that your purpose of coming to greet me is not pure, and your relationship is not to welcome the son-in-law, but to welcome the "little friend" you can chat with?
Lou Suzhen was very polite, but simply handed over to Sun Jiao without even saying a word.

Sun Jiao wanted to invite Lou Suzhen to have a good talk, but Zhu Hao reminded him, "Mr. Sun has no business today? Why do you have time to go out of the city to meet him?"

"Isn't it good to welcome you? Zisheng, you should have known him a long time ago. He has been in the household department for a few days and is adapting to his new position. If he has any problems in the future, just ask you for advice."

Sun Jiao was very rude.

Obviously the son-in-law is not a member of the household department, but he actually asked the head of the household department to consult Zhu Hao about something?
Zhu Hao didn't get angry, and greeted Xu Jie with a smile, Xu Jie's expression was somewhat embarrassed.

……

……

After exchanging greetings at the gate of the city, they entered the city together.

The carriage was behind, and the group of people walked through the gate of the city first.

After entering the city, Sun Jiao didn't hide anymore, and went directly to chat with Lou Suzhen, but left Zhu Hao aside.

Zhu Hao said to Xu Jie who followed suit: "Brother Zisheng, how is it? From the Imperial Academy to the Ministry of Household Affairs, for ordinary people, it is equivalent to having a way to actually serve the court."

Xu Jie tried his best to squeeze out a smile to make himself seem more sincere, and pretended to be free and easy: "I am about to ask for leave to go back to my hometown to visit my relatives. My family has already promised me a marriage. There can be no further delay. I have already asked for instructions. The imperial court Permitted."

Zhu Hao nodded.

Historically, Xu Jie returned to his hometown to marry a wife as an editor of the Imperial Academy, and then encountered the system of guarding his father's death, and returned to the capital and was still in the Imperial Academy.

But because of Zhu Hao's accident, it had a great impact on Xu Jie's life.

Xu Jie is now returning to his hometown as the head of the household department. In terms of treatment and reputation, he has suffered a lot. Xu Jie could have married a wife more beautifully, but now it seems... I'm afraid it will be greatly discounted.

"Mr. Sun seems to appreciate you very much, and he will take you out with him when something happens." Zhu Hao laughed.

Xu Jie smiled ashamed again: "If it wasn't because I know Jing Dao well, Sun Butang might not have called me."

Xu Jie was somewhat disappointed.

Although he covered it up again and again, his words still showed a kind of inferiority complex.

Hubu Shangshu brought him out just to meet his son-in-law, who would believe how much the old Shangshu admired him?

He has no background in the imperial court, and none of his brothers in the same school can help him. He has long known that being an official in the capital depends on connections. He felt his future was bleak.

……

……

Sun Jiao chatted with Lou Suzhen for a while, and then ran over to find Zhu Hao.

Several people entered a tea house near Yanfu Palace together, Sun Jiao intentionally asked others to stay downstairs, he and Zhu Hao went up to the second floor, and wanted to talk to his son-in-law alone.

"...Respectfully, the old man is not hiding it anymore. The old man is really tired of this officialdom, and the old man also agreed to Yang Jiefu. If he wants to retire, the old man must retire earlier than him, so... I promised you before. , it seems impossible to stay in court for a longer period of time.”

What Sun Jiao meant, I'm leaving, and I won't listen to what you say.

Zhu Hao said: "Mr. Sun, now you can retire if you want?"

Sun Jiao was startled, frowned and asked, "Why?"

Zhu Hao sighed: "Isn't Mr. Yang Ge also resigning, what's the result? This courtier wants to retire, it depends on the chance."

Sun Jiao was a little annoyed, and said angrily: "So, you will speak to His Majesty to prevent the old man from begging for the old man to return to the land, right?"

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely pretend to deny it.

But Zhu Hao didn't bother to answer.

Yes!
You know everything, what are you asking?
Since you think you can't retreat and I can't interfere, why do you still come to tell me?If you, a minister of the household department, want to become an official, do you still need the approval of your son-in-law?
Since you came to ask, it means that you know that I might intervene, so what can I do if I really hinder you?
Sun Jiao was a little discouraged, as if complaining: "Jingdao, what on earth do you want to do? You are not in the capital, but the court is still messed up by you. I really can't figure it out. You are a civil servant who came from the number one scholar, and your talents and abilities are recognized worldwide. , as long as you do your best, you will definitely be able to appear in the prime of life within 20 years, why do you want to..."

Zhu Hao said: "20 years? Can't wait that long!"

Sun Jiaodao: "Then you just want to be the chief assistant early?"

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I just want to change Daming, and use all means to develop technology to make Daming stronger. Holding power is just a means to realize my ambition. As for the chief assistant, who will do it differently? Wait for Yang Ge to retire In the end, whoever enters the Imperial Academy and who enters the cabinet is not a matter of His Majesty's words?"

"Humph……"

He snorted heavily, as if he was sighing or complaining.

In short, Sun Jiao's complexion was not very good-looking.

While the two were talking, someone came upstairs to report: "Sun Butang and Zhu Hanlin, there is an official car driving to the teahouse. It seems to be the carriage of Yang Ge's hometown."

Sun Jiaodao: "Let's just say that it is impossible for Yang Yongxiu not to come, he is still thinking about finding you to do something."

The two of them wanted to say a few more words, so they stopped talking now and waited quietly for Yang Shen to arrive.

……

……

The second floor of the teahouse.

Having already been taken over by Zhu Hao, Yang Shen did not bring Yu Chengxun with him on this trip, but brought Ye Guizhang.

In name, it was natural to welcome Zhu Hao.

After seeing Sun Jiao, Yang Shen greeted him politely, saying that he came to greet his old friend after completing his errands in the Imperial Academy.

Yang Shen smiled and said: "Jingdao, let's just say that we will still work together. You go back to Hanyuan and continue to work as a historian. In the future, you have to discuss with each other about editing books."

These words were clearly addressed to Sun Jiao.

Zhu Hao said: "Why didn't I see Brother Mao Gong?"

"He? I have something to do, so I can't come."

Yang Shen didn't expect that Zhu Hao would ask Yu Chengxun, he was already giving enough face to welcome Zhu Hao, wouldn't he bring Yu Chengxun with him every time?
Zhu Hao said to Sun Jiao again: "Old Sun, we young people have something to say, look..."

Sun gave Zhu Hao a blank look, waved his hands and said, "Remember to take the little girl back to the house tonight, and have a family dinner together. The old man can tell you, don't waste time."

"But at home..." Zhu Hao was looking for an excuse, meaning that I just came back, why don't you let me go home to see my mother first?But you want to see your father-in-law first?
But seeing Sun Jiao's unfriendly eyes, Zhu Hao changed his tone to a sensible one, "When the family affairs are settled, we must come to the door as soon as possible."

As soon as Sun Jiao took Xu Jie away, Yang Shen seemed to be a different person, and said with a straight face: "Don't go to Old Man Sun's house, I will introduce you to the officials in the past two days. Or go to the official department to serve."
