After being forced to marry by her stepmother, Koi's lovely wife prospers the whole family

Chapter 526

Recently, there was a disaster in the south, and the emperor asked the officials of the court and China to donate silver taels.

Most of those officials are a dime, so they hit these merchants with their ideas.

The emperor himself is a merchant, and now there is not much left, so this is not the idea to hit the Zhou family.

He specially invited Zhou Ruiyuan, Zhou Feng, Du Bangchun and Han Yan'er.

Zhou Feng is still the emperor's nominal son, and he has been an idle marquis all these years, and the emperor has not treated him badly.

As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise a soldier, and it's time to take it out.

There is also Concubine Li at this banquet.

The emperor asked the palace maid to pour a glass of wine for each of them and tell them about the disaster relief.

Zhou Ruiyuan put down his wine glass, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, there is a disaster in the south, and we have donated silver taels to the local people. The

emperor was very surprised, "You have already donated?"

Zhou Ruiyuan replied: "If you go back to the emperor, my wife has sent someone to send silver and materials to the disaster area three days ago. "

Anyway, it's all about donations, why wait for the emperor to ask for it, if the emperor gets this silver, he will definitely deduct half of it, and then he gets the name and silver, but the Zhou family has nothing.

Du Bangchun had long expected this, and at the moment when he learned of the disaster in the south, without waiting for the emperor to find them, the silver and materials they prepared were personally distributed to the victims one by one in the name of Zhou Ruiyuan and Zhou Shangshu.

Although a lot of money was spent this time, it was necessary to save the people from fire and water.

The emperor's face changed greatly after hearing this, and he slowly sat down with his eyes down.

Originally, he also planned to rebuild the courtyard after getting a sum of money from the Zhou family, but it seems that this is going to fail.

Concubine Li on the side took Zhou Ruiyuan's words and said, "Lord Zhou is dedicated to the people, which is really good.

After speaking, he also said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it just so happens that you don't have to worry about disaster relief anymore, the Zhou family has done us a great favor." The

emperor was still displeased with Zhou Ruiyuan's approach, but when he heard Concubine Li say this, he put away the anger on his face, raised his glass again and said, "Lord Zhou and Shopkeeper Du are really loyal. His

words sounded a little sour.

Zhou Ruiyuan and Du Bangchun listened silently, slightly wanting to laugh.

Zhou Feng and Han Yan'er were eating silently on the side, as if the emperor's words had nothing to do with him.

This made the emperor so angry that he put down the wine glass again.

Fortunately, Concubine Li was in the round and let the dancing girl come up to dance.

The complexion of the crowd gradually softened.

After Du Bangchun and they left.

The emperor was so angry that he almost smashed everything on the table, "This Zhou family is becoming more and more arrogant."

Concubine Li hurriedly persuaded: "The Zhou family has not done anything wrong, they have taken out a large amount of silver from their family for disaster relief, which is also to reduce the burden on our court, and the emperor does not need to be angry." The

emperor raised his eyes and said, "I..."

He wanted to speak and stopped, but he couldn't say that it was because he didn't get any benefit from it.

He didn't want Concubine Li to know, so he didn't say any more.

Du Bangchun and Zhou Ruiyuan left the palace in a carriage.

This time, the Zhou family not only gained fame, but also profit.

After the emperor came back from Concubine Li's palace, he was sad for a long time, and just as he was about to fall asleep, news came from the secret guard in the palace.

"Your Majesty, the assassin has been found. The

emperor was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and asked excitedly, "Where is he?!"

The dark guard replied: "If you go back to the emperor, we have temporarily found out that this assassin went to Qingzhou Mansion." The

assassin he spoke of was Wang Qiu.

Wang Qiu faked his death and escaped Wu Guifei's eyes, but nothing is foolproof, if the emperor wants to check, he can naturally find out.

"Qingzhou Mansion...", the emperor read silently, his brows gradually furrowed.

"Why is this place again?!" The

dark guard wondered, "Your Majesty, is there anything unusual about this place?"

The emperor thought back to the past and replied: "Over the years, many people I have sent out have gone to Qingzhou Mansion, but they have all returned in vain. The

dark guard pondered for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, do you think the queen mother will be here?" The

emperor said: "But I have been looking for many years, but I have not found it."

The Dark Guard said meaningfully, "The more strange the place, the more suspicious it is.

As he spoke, his eyes rolled, and he continued: "Since every time I go to look for it, I don't find anyone, and from time to time Your Majesty has eyeliner around you?"

He thought carefully about the past father-in-law Liu and father-in-law Zhang.
