Drunk House Chapter 700

Chapter 700 Fourth Grade (Second Update)

Zhou Gu did what he said. After breakfast, he was going to see the Minister of Rites.

The King of Nanchu looked at Su Rong.

Su Rong waved her hand, "I'm not going, I'm going to see the queen."

The King of Nanchu nodded, "Okay."

Su Rong asked: "No matter how I deal with it, my father will have no objection, right?"

The King of Southern Chu was disgusted and said, "Yes, it's up to you."

Su Rong got up and left.

The King of Nanchu also stood up and said to Zhou Gu: "Let's go, I will take you to the Ministry of Rites personally. The Ministry of Rites happens to be short of a minister, so you can fill the gap!"

Zhou Guxiao said, "Father-in-law, you are in the fourth grade."

"Well, you are a future king's husband, and you are only in the fourth rank now." King Nan Chu felt that if Zhou Gu wanted to go to all six departments, he felt that it would be just right for him to follow Su Rong and supervise the country to review the memorials. Now he wants to go to six departments , New official posts in the dynasty cannot go through the night to return to the snow, otherwise it will not be good.

Zhou Gu sighed, the fourth rank was already too young. If he stayed in Daliang, he would have to start from the fifth rank at the earliest. He sighed, "Father-in-law, you are so kind to me."

The King of Nanchu patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have traveled thousands of miles to come to Nanchu for Xiaoqi, so I will naturally treat you well. This is nothing now, the days will be long in the future."

Zhou Guxiao, although he was far away from Daliang Jingcheng, he had no conscience to say that he really didn't feel like home after being here for half a year.

After the two arrived at the Ministry of Rites, they heard the singing of harmony. The Minister of Rites and others hurriedly came out to welcome them, and bowed their hands in greeting, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

The King of Southern Chu said "no courtesy" and pointed to Zhou Gu beside him and said to the old minister: "Ai Qing, this is Zhou Gu. Isn't there a shortage of people in your etiquette department? Send him here. From now on, he will The ceremonial department has filled the vacancy of the assistant minister, so you should take care of him more."

The Minister of Rites naturally knew Zhou Gu. Yesterday, he also went to the city gate to pick up the princess to return to the capital. Hearing this, he looked at Zhou Gu in surprise and cupped his hands, "Young Master Zhou, are you here to take care of the vacancy of the Minister of Rites?"

It is really hard to believe that this future king's husband, who is famous all over the world with his two-handed sword, and who goes to war and conspires, actually came to his Ministry of Rites.

Zhou Gu avoided the courtesy from the old minister and hurriedly said, "Master Shangshu, yes, your subordinate is on duty at the Rites Department. If you have any work, just assign it to your subordinate."

He quickly integrated into his own identity and called himself a lower official.

The old minister almost said that he didn't dare, but seeing Zhou Gu's serious and sincere face, and seeing that King Nan Chu didn't look like a joke, he was confused and strange, "Your Majesty, why did the Fourth Young Master come to the Ministry of Rites? There are vacancies in the six departments of the imperial court. There are many…”

“Isn't there a shortage of people in your Ministry of Etiquette?” King Nanchu looked at him, “Especially the preparation for the wedding of the princess requires countless people to work.”

"Then there is no need for the Fourth Young Master. The Fourth Young Master comes to the Ministry of Rites and is overqualified for little use." Although the Minister of Rites has never met Zhou Gu before, in the past year, the reputation of Young Master Zhou has been well-known and he has heard of it countless times.

“He will do his own wedding personally,” said the king of Nanchu.

Zhou Gu said on the side: "Yesterday, the princess told me that she will get married in half a year. Knowing that this is really difficult for the minister, she asked me to help. In addition, the princess will also deploy more people to fully assist the minister in preparing for this matter. ." The Minister of Rites' eyes widened in an instant, half a year? Are you kidding me, princess?

He looked at Zhou Gu and saw that he was sure. He didn't know if he could do it for a while. If it took half a year, the queen husband couldn't push it out. Otherwise, who could guarantee that he could do it in half a year?

He immediately handed over his hand and said, "Well, it is an honor for me that the Fourth Young Master can come to the Ministry of Rites. Your Majesty, please invite me. Please, Fourth Young Master."

Of course, the King of Nanchu didn't just send Zhou Gu here and leave. He also wanted to see what kind of arrangements he had made. Then he and Zhou Gu entered the Ministry of Rites, led by the Minister of Rites.

After Su Rong left the Qinzheng Hall, he went to the palace where King Nan Chu lived before. The palace had been sealed by the imperial guards for two or three months when King Nan Chu returned to the capital.

Su Rong came to the palace, and the Imperial Guards immediately greeted each other with greetings, "Princess!"

Su Rong nodded, "Open the palace door."

A guard leader responded immediately and waved his hand to open the sealed palace door.

Su Rong stepped forward and walked in. The head guard saw that she came alone and there was no one around to serve her. He hesitated for a moment, fearing that the princess would suffer a disadvantage, so he led a few people to follow her.

After Queen Nangong Xin occupied the palace of King Nan Chu, she naturally moved all the people serving her here. She originally thought that after King Nan Chu returned to the palace safely and found out that she had occupied his palace, he would be furious and kill her. He wanted to marry her, but after she waited for two or three months, he didn't come. He just sent people to seal the place, and he didn't even see her.

She was sick, and an imperial doctor came to see her. She was not given three meals a day, but he was kept away from her.

Nangong Xin would not think that King Nan Chu could not bear to leave her, let alone feel sorry for her. Chu Rong had no such thing as pity for her.

She gradually understood what his plan was. He was probably waiting for Su Rong to return to the palace, and then leave her to her disposal.

She felt calm in her heart. She had seen Su Rong's portrait and heard a lot about her growth history. The things the Dark Guardian gave her were very detailed. It could be said that she had paid attention to how many years she had sent people to kill Su Rong. How many years has it taken her. She didn't see any trace of the gentle person like Princess Zhenmin in Su Rong, except for her appearance.

Since she didn't leave, didn't leave the royal capital with the Nangong family, didn't leave the palace, and stayed alone, she had already put her life and death at risk, so she had already expected what would happen to her.

　To this day, she has no regrets.

She thought, Su Rong was torturing her? Or kill her? It's nothing more than these two paths.

The palace door opened, and the expressions of all the people serving Queen Nanchu inside changed. Everyone was panicking. In fact, on the day when the Nangong family and King Liuan discovered that King Nanchu was missing, and before Nangong Xin moved into the palace, she She has dismissed a group of people who were serving her. Those who are willing to leave will leave, and those who are unwilling to leave will stay. Now there are still seven or eight people serving around her. They have nowhere to go and are unwilling to leave, but even if they are loyal She was mentally prepared that accompanying the queen would not end well, but on this day, she was still scared and panicked.

One of them went inside and reported to Nangong Xin, "King, queen, the princess is here!"

Nangong Xin was sitting in front of the mirror, tying her own hairpin. Naturally, she heard the movement outside. She said "Yes", "Come as soon as you come, why are you panicking? I let you go, but you don't leave. To this day, I have no regrets." used."

The man calmed down instantly and said, "I will not regret accompanying you."

Her life was saved by the queen. She had been with the queen for many years. Although the queen had a bad temper, she never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Of course, except for Jiangning County who sent people to Daliang, the queen did not miss the people in this palace. Poisoned anyone for no reason.
