Drunk House

Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows when he saw Zhang Yun sitting over.

 Zhang Yun hooked Zhou Gu's shoulder and said, "Brother, can you have a couple of drinks?"

 Zhou Gu looked at him and asked, "Are you in such a good mood?"

Zhang Yun nodded, "Yes, I won the top prize of three yuan and spent a lot of time convincing him to join my military department, so I am naturally in a good mood."

Zhou Gu was noncommittal and clinked glasses with him.

The two drank a drink together. Zhang Yun praised Nangong Che, "Nangong Che's talent is indeed worthy of being polished by the queen's own hands."

Zhou Gu glanced at him but said nothing.

Zhang Yunyi was happy and added, "There is also a concubine who is worthy of polishing ink for him." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Rong who was standing in front of a student in the distance and spoke, and leaned closer to Zhou Gu's ear, He whispered: "My lady is really good at winning people's hearts. I remember that I was moved by her because of her short letter. Later I saw her clearing the snow to greet her and spoke sincerely. I was moved by her. I decided at that moment Now, she is the master of the Ming Dynasty, and I will be a loyal minister and follow her to the death. Now..."

He clicked his tongue and said, "I am afraid that all the students in the palace today will have to serve the queen loyally in the future."

Whether it was the number one scholar or the top three, she treated them equally and did not bother to ask questions one by one. Which student can afford such equal attention from everyone? No matter which state or county I go to serve as an official in the future, even if I am thousands of miles apart, I am afraid I will always remember that there was such a princess in the court, who was wise and understanding, and governed benevolently for the king.

 Zhou Gu curled his lips and said, "Of course."

Su Rong was taught very well by Xie Yuan, and he understood the way of being a king, but he was more condescending and condescending than those who understood the way of being a king and learned the art of checks and balances.

There is only one prince like her in the world. From her actions today, we can see that students all over the world will flock to her in the future. The future of Nanchu is prosperous.

 No one would think that having such a monarch in Southern Chu would make their choice a mistake.

Zhang Yun was jealous, "Brother Zhou, your life is too good, right?"

Zhou Gu turned to look at him when he heard this, "What? Are you envious? Or jealous?"

"Of course it's jealousy." Zhang Yun said unceremoniously, "Tell me, how come you have such good eyesight, clinging to people and not letting them go, and how can you make the princess choose you firmly?"

 Zhou Gu curled his lips again, "Of course I made her like it."

Zhang Yun clicked his **** sour tone, "Others once said that the Fourth Young Master of the Protector's Palace gave up a great future for the Princess of Nanchu. Now, just a short time later, the world's trend has changed. It is said that the Princess of Nanchu is resolute and resolute. , the stakes are extremely high, it is said that the queen’s husband is both civil and military, and can be called a good match.”

Zhou Gu was in a good mood and said, "Look at how bitter you are, do you want to get a wife?"

Zhang Yun coughed slightly, "That's not true. I just feel that your life is good and that we are not as good as you."

Zhou Gu hooked his shoulder with his backhand, "Don't worry, now that women's encore is open, many women are not prepared this year, and few will end up. Next year and the year after, I am afraid that a large number of talented women will flock to the royal capital. By then, you You can always choose the person you like. So you don’t have to be so jealous of me every day.”

 Zhang Yun rolled his eyes, "Who in the world is better than the princess?"

Zhou Gu immediately looked at him warily, "I tell you, you are not allowed to have any ideas about Su Rong. She is mine, otherwise none of my brothers will be able to do it. You have learned how to use my two-handed sword."

Zhang Xunxun smiled, "Don't worry, I don't want to cut off my hand yet, and I can't pick up the moon in the sky. I'm just jealous of your good life."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Gu and raised a toast with him, "Aren't we brothers? I'm just going to say something bitter about you having such a big reaction." Zhou Gu hummed lightly, "You'd better not be sour for the rest of your life, otherwise brothers still have nothing to do. .”

 Zhang Yun laughed loudly and clinked glasses with him, "Are you concerned?"

Zhou Gu looked at him angrily. If this was not in the main hall, he would have kicked him and told him that of course, anyone who dared to compete with her for Su Rong would be waiting for her.

Ning Ze, who was half drunk, came over. He had no place to sit, so he sat directly on the ground next to Zhang Yun. When the chamberlain saw him, he quickly brought a soft cushion and handed it to him. Ning Ze was not particular about it. He raised his buttocks, put a soft cushion on it, and talked to Zhang Yun and Zhou Gu.

He mainly complained to Zhou Gu, "Brother Zhou, my concubine, my lord, why are you sitting here all the time? The old minister is too proud to come forward to rob people, but the ministers in various ministries are not." If you are idle, our household department is still short of people. Everyone has gone to grab people, so why don't you do something? Now there is not a single person in the first-class household department, and there is not one in the top ten of the second-class department. It seems that our household department does not have a share. If you don't If we move, our household department won't even be able to grab the last place in the second division."

Zhou Gu looked at him and said, "There are quite a few people joining the Ministry of Household Affairs, but you still dare to think about the first and second class people?"

Ningze: “…”

Can't you even think about it?

 He immediately said: "But our household department is still short of people."

"It's okay to be short of people, but you have to grab them. In the past six months, when the court has recruited talents, they have focused on the household department first. I am embarrassed to grab them again." Zhou Gu remained unmoved.

Ning Ze choked, looked at him and asked, "Can I really go and rob him?"

"What do you think? Aren't you just one level lower than me?" Zhou Gu also looked back at him.

Ning Ze thought about it. He immediately stood up and said, "I'll go find the princess right now."

He came and left quickly. In a blink of an eye, he passed the steps and officials and found himself in front of Su Rong.

At this time, Su Rong was asking and chatting with the students in the second half of the second class. Seeing Ning Ze rushing over, the student stopped talking.

 “Mrs.” Ning Ze stood beside Su Rong obediently and called out cautiously.

Su Rong turned to look at him and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Ning Ze blinked, nodded, and whispered: "The household department is still short of people. The ministers and others are almost crazy with their work. There are many things that cannot be done, and the manpower is still not enough. You can't just think about the other departments. Leave the Ministry of Finance aside, Lao Shangshu and Brother Zhou are too embarrassed to come and rob people, so I'm here."

Su Ronxiao looked Ning Ze up and down, "Have you drank a lot?"

Ning Ze nodded, "Yeah."

Su Rong added: "Compared with when you returned to Beijing, the budget has been reduced a lot. The household department is still very tired now?"

She felt that Zhou Gu seemed to be a lot more relaxed recently, presumably because he had shared most of the work. After all, Cui Xingzhi and Ning Ze were both very capable.

"I'm very tired." Ning Ze pointed at his eye circles and complained, "I haven't had a good night's sleep since I returned to the royal capital and joined the household department. I don't fall asleep until midnight every day. I haven't had a good drink with anyone in the capital for a long time. I’m drunk, I’m really too busy, the household affairs are piled up like a mountain.”

He almost regretted that he rode his horse back too fast. If it had been a few days later, he would have been lazy for a few days. At that time, he thought that the work would eventually be finished and he would rest at that time, but who would have thought that after so long, the work was still not finished. He was so tired that he slept on the pillow every day and had no energy to speak, let alone teach others to drink. (End of chapter)
