Chapter 316 Different Treatment
Zhou Zheng truthfully reported to the King of Qin.
"Father, Miss Chen does not seem to want to hide this matter, but she suddenly changed a lot and has not recovered for a while. I heard that she has not gone to school these days."
"Go to school? Is she going to school?" asked the King of Qin.
"She is Mr. Chi's student, the one who used to be in the army." Zhou Zheng explained.
The King of Qin nodded, and he had an impression of Mr. Chi. At one time, he even sent an invitation to Mr. Chi in the New Year banquet of the royal palace.
"Well, it's rare to be studious and motivated," said the King of Qin to the eunuch who served beside him, "Send her a good set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
The eunuch responded, and Zhou Zheng also said goodbye, and walked out of the Qin King's study with the eunuch one after another.
From here to the warehouse where pens, ink, paper and inkstones were stored, you had to pass through three Yuedongmen. The eunuch bowed to Zhou Zheng and went to do business.
After he walked about a hundred steps, the eunuch's eyes turned, and shook the whisk in his hand, stopped, and turned around: "Three Young Master, do you have something to order me?"
All the eunuchs who can serve the King of Qin have martial arts skills. The one who died when the fake Zhongling County Lord assassinated and the one in front of him are not only possessing martial arts skills, but also a master.
Zhou Zheng followed him, and he had long been sure that he would find out, but the eunuch had a good heart until he walked more than a hundred steps and left the study, and then he turned around and spoke.
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "My father-in-law is really smart and clear-headed. I know I can't hide it from my father-in-law, but I didn't expect that I would be discovered by my father-in-law so soon."
The eunuch was joking, and guessing that he had something to ask for, and he also said, "The third young master loves to joke the most, and he jokes with his servants again."
Zhou Zheng took a step forward and asked in a voice that only he and the eunuch could hear, "The father has given Miss Shen the four treasures of the study. I just happened to have time, so let me send it to my father-in-law."
The eunuch laughed: "How can that be done? I dare not bother the third young master with such a big face."
"It's okay, I'm idle, I'll take a trip for my father-in-law. That's it, I'll wait for my father-in-law here." After Zhou Zheng said that, he stood on the side of the road and looked like he was waiting for someone.
When the eunuch saw this, he could no longer refuse, so he had to bow again: "Then I will thank the third son first. The third son is here, and I will come when I go."
Half an hour later, the eunuch returned to the study and the King of Qin asked, "What's the matter with you, the third young master?"
The eunuch said: "The third young master went to the Academy Street for me and gave Miss Chen the four treasures of the study."
"Oh? He went to see him off in person?" The King of Qin's brows moved slightly.
The eunuch stood with his hands down: "In my humble opinion, the third young master wants Mr. Li to know about this and never dares to gossip in front of the prince again."
The King of Qin was slightly stunned and then laughed: "Li Sinan's tongue is indeed a little longer, but the third brother is thinking too much."
The eunuch said: "The prince is in love with the third son and the father and son. The prince wants to give Miss Chen a face, so the third son helps the prince block those people's mouths."
The King of Qin pondered for a moment and said, "That child is a rare talent. I don't want to let a pearl be buried in the soil because of this."
The eunuch smiled: "I am stupid, but I think this is a good thing."
The King of Qin smiled again: "If you are stupid, I will not leave you by my side."
......
There are no absolute good things in this world, nor are there absolutely bad things. Sometimes good things and bad things are just different from each other's perspective.
For example, the only well in the village has dried up and the villagers have no water to drink. This is a bad thing.
However, because the well was gone, the villagers searched for water sources everywhere, and four or five wells were dug one after another. From then on, hundreds of people no longer had to guard a well to drink water. This bad thing turned into a good thing again.
......
In the afternoon, Zhou Zheng, the third son of the Qin Palace, came to Shuyuan Street and brought the reward from the King of Qin and also praised Chen Tong for his praise. The King of Qin praised Chen Tong for his eagerness to study and progress, so he rewarded him with a set of four treasures in the study.
Just as the students were in school, the carriages and horses of the Qin Palace stopped on the Academy Street, which immediately attracted pedestrians to stop and watch. Zhou Zheng did not drive him away. When he walked into the Shen family, his subordinates said to the onlookers: "The prince praised Miss Chen Tong for her eagerness to study and progress, and specially sent the third young master to reward him. It's good to study, and the prince valued scholars the most."
Those who are watching here are scholars. Although they are not the ones who are rewarded, everyone feels light on their faces.
After Chen Tong sent Zhou Zheng out, everyone could see clearly that this girl Chen Tong was still a little girl. A girl who didn't need to be admitted to the imperial examination could be so studious, let alone these men?
A child in the crowd shouted loudly: "We must also study hard, study hard and be motivated!"
Although I don’t know who called it, they all shouted together, Zhou Zheng smiled at them, so someone shouted again: “Look, the third young master agrees with us!”
The crowd became more restless and shouted in unison: "Three Young Masters, Three Young Masters!"
Chen Tong, who was standing behind Zhou Zheng, shrugged and cooperated very well.
The people from the Li family were also among the crowd. Before Zhou Zheng left Shuyuan Street, Mrs. Li sent someone to inform Li Sinan.
Li Sinan was stunned for a moment. Zhu Bajie looked in the mirror, and he was not a human inside and outside. That's what he said.
No, Zhu Bajie is not only a person inside and outside, but also shows a Bodhisattva who saves all living beings...
The next day, Chen Tong went to the Qin Palace to thank the reward. This is the rule and he must go there.
And the King of Qin was indeed waiting for her.
"Can the family matters be handled properly?" King Qin and Yan asked with joy.
Chen Tong lowered her head slightly and said in a stern voice: "There is nothing to deal with. My mother is gone. It's my fault that I didn't find her."
The King of Qin nodded: "I have sent someone to find him. Although you have made a mistake in this matter, it is not a big mistake. You can correct it when you know the mistake. There is no great benefit."
Chen Tong gave a deep gift: "Chen Tong thanked Prince for his teachings."
The King of Qin said in a gentle voice: "Although you are not Shen's family, Mrs. Chen has raised you after all. You must remember this kind of support. When Mrs. Chen comes back, don't be filial to Mrs. Shen's knees just because you are not Shen's family. Mrs. Chen is your adoptive mother, and this is for life."
"Yes, if my mother doesn't dislike her, I'm willing to serve her to live forever." Chen Tong said.
But my mother dislikes her.
King Qin said: "Okay, it's rare that you have this filial piety. OK, Yining is afraid that he will be anxious. Go and play with her. Mrs. Chen is not here, and it will inevitably be inconvenient for you, a girl, to be outside. I'll be given a badge later and come to the mansion to accompany Yining."
Chen Tong thanked him again, respectfully withdrew from the Qin King's study and went to the back of the royal mansion to find Princess Yining.
She has been dealing with the King of Qin for several years, and this is the first time she has heard the King of Qin talk to her in this tone. Although she is teaching, she is vaguely intimate.
She is not the orphan of Shen, she is just a little orphan who has fallen into the eyes of the King of Qin.
