Because the Zhou family curried favor with Empress Yan and Mr. Yan Ge, they have now replaced the Yang family, which was originally the emperor's wet nurse's family, and become another surname in the capital that has no foundation but can rise to great heights.
However, such people rise quickly and sometimes fall quickly, and they often decline again within ten or a few years.
The length of time can only depend on whether the big tree next to it is deep-rooted enough.
Shen Mingzhu had some understanding of the situation in the capital before, but because she was far away and had no immediate needs, she didn't care much.
Now after listening to Shen Mingtang's words, I have an intuitive impression, and I have a better understanding of the situation in the capital.
"The Zhou family once sent someone to propose marriage to the fourth sister. They wanted to hire the fourth young master to marry the fourth sister to their family. He was the fourth son of the Zhou family and a concubine. But now, he has a job next to the big tree of the Yan family.
, working in the Ministry of Industry.”
Shen Mingzhu nodded, "My father must have disagreed."
Since it was once, it must not be the case anymore.
Shen Mingtang said: "Yes, my father despises those people who tend to be in favor of others, especially the Zhou family. They are like dogs to the Yan family, and act arrogantly and arrogantly towards other people. They have no rules. My father despises them the most."
And my father felt that the fourth son of the Zhou family was not good enough to be worthy of our fourth sister, so he refused on the grounds that the eldest lady was not married yet and the younger sisters had to wait. As a result, he offended the Zhou family."
Naturally, the Zhou family will not like this reason. After all, Shen Mingzhu is not married, but Shen Yunluo is already married. Since Shen Yunluo can marry, why can't Shen Mingfu? After all, she has reached the age where she can discuss marriage.
Since Shen Can doesn't agree, it's obvious that he doesn't look down on the Zhou family.
Now that the Zhou family is prosperous, how can they not secretly hold a grudge and cause trouble to the Shen family on weekdays?
After hearing this, Shen Mingzhu was not too angry and said with a smile: "Scumbags like the Zhou family are just riding the east wind for two days. When the wind direction changes, they will be the first to be unlucky. There is no need to be angry, brother."
.”
Shen Mingtang said: "My sister is back, but it's not too late for me to be happy. But there is another question. If someone asks how my sister escaped, how should I deal with it then?"
Until now, no explanation has come out from the palace. No one knows what the emperor is thinking. Is he going to pardon Mingzhu without mentioning his mistakes, or is he brewing a further storm and wants to put Mingzhu in jail again.
This is what Shen Mingtang is most concerned about and worried about.
Shen Mingzhu comforted him and said: "Brother, don't worry. We have already met Xiao Che when we were in Fengzhou and other places. The emperor has naturally known about it for a long time. Since they have not issued any sea arrest documents, I'm afraid they just want to
The page of the past was left behind, and it was treated as if it had not happened, and everyone tacitly refused to mention it."
If the emperor wants to kill her again, he can send troops to capture her as soon as she enters Daqin territory.
He didn't do this. Whether he thought he couldn't catch her or really didn't want to catch her, he just wouldn't do it anyway.
As for the common people, there is actually no need to explain, because even if the emperor publishes a list to explain clearly, many people will not see the news and will still spread the previous statement, spreading it from ten to ten.
