Chu Nanyue felt that this was also a causal cycle, and it had its own definite number.

"They didn't come, where did they go? Now that everything is busy in the court, they must have done something to please them. Chu Nanyue guessed.

"What the general said is very true." Qingshuang said with a smile, "I don't know what these two think, they both stayed in the household department, you must know that even the lord of the household department Shangshu also came to the wedding banquet, but they stayed there to deal with political affairs." ”

"They're talking about the Household Department." Chu Nanyue explained. "Even marrying my own sister is not a big deal. Just cares about thinking about Lord Shangshu, isn't this a good subordinate? ”

There is nothing in the Weiguo Mansion that requires their contribution, and the two of them have been stagnant in the position of the household department member for too long, presumably in a hurry to make meritorious contributions.

"It's a pity for this young lady from the Weiguo Mansion." Qingshuang sighed beside her.

"Life and death are fateful, and there is no way to choose where everyone comes from." Chu Nanyue said lightly.

She hardly felt any sympathy in her tone, a person she had never seen before, and he was in the Weiguo Mansion, there were very few people Chu Nanyue I wanted to care for, and she never felt the need for sympathy to overflow, and she wanted to think of ways to help an insignificant person.

And her feelings are also for herself.

If she really thinks deeply, she also doesn't want to be born in the Chu family. Everyone is willing to come to the world under the care and love of her parents, but she has no choice.

But Chu Nanyue didn't complain about the sky, she could be reborn and change the wrong path she had taken before, it was already an eye-opener for God.

Qingshuang had slowly told the household department, and Chu Nanyue observed for a few more days before going to visit the household department in person.

It stands to reason that Chu Nanyue does not belong to the six departments, so he is relatively free. And the people of the Sixth Department also have a lot of intentions for her.

When Chu Nanyue arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of Households, it happened that Master Shangshu was not there, and sent Wei Guogong's two sons to receive him.

This just happened to be what Chu Nanyue was satisfied with.

After the two of them arrived in front of Chu Nanyue and saluted Chu Nanyue, Chu Nanyue politely helped everyone up.

"I have heard for a long time that Lord Zhou is a capable person, and he is deeply relied on by Lord Shangshu, which is rare." Chu Nanyue praised.

"We have two Lord Zhou here, I don't know which one General Chu said?" Zhou Yuanji, the second son, asked half-jokingly.

And Chu Nanyue smiled, but instead pointed to Zhou Yuanchi, the eldest son of Duke Wei: "Naturally, it's your brother." ”

Zhou Yuanji looked unhappy for a moment, but quickly regained his expression: "Naturally, it should be my brother." Xia Guan is younger than his brother, in fact, he needs more experience and learning more from his brother. ”

Chu Nanyue saw that there was clearly an indescribable atmosphere between them, and couldn't help but have some guesses.

Zhou Yuanchi's face did not change at that time, it seemed that he was used to being praised like this, but he was calmer than his brother.

"General Chu came to the household department today, and it happened that Lord Shangshu was not there, so let us be in charge of the reception. If General Chu feels that he is not thoughtful, please say all of them, and don't think that he is a student. Zhou Yuanchi said.

Chu Nanyue hurriedly replied: "Today is not a big deal, but it is the autumn harvest season, and the military field on the outskirts of Beijing can be harvested. ”

Zhou Yuanchi also smiled and said, "If General Chu trusts the lower official, the lower official will convey the matter." ”

"It's fine." Chu Nanyue agreed without much thought, and then said casually as if chatting, "Lord Zhou seems to have served in the household department for a few years, and it seems that Lord Zhou's promotion is only a recent one." ”

"Then let's borrow the general's auspicious words first." To Chu Nanyue's surprise, Zhou Yuanchi was not humble and authentic.

Chu Nanyue was greeting him, and noticed that Zhou Yuanji next to him didn't have time to intervene in a word.

It can be seen that in the Weiguo Mansion, like other mansions, they are all invisible, and there is an order of the eldest and youngest.

But what will happen to this concept of dignity and inferiority once it is brought to the officialdom? After all, the brothers of the Zhou family are all outsiders now, and they have the same official position, and there is actually no huge difference in their abilities.

The reason why Zhou Yuanchi has been able to suppress another person is nothing more than because he is the elder brother and the eldest son of the Zhou family.

When he spoke later, Chu Nanyue deliberately didn't take much care of Zhou Yuanji, and Zhou Yuanji seemed to have some desire to perform, but every time he wanted to speak, he was stopped by his brother.

Zhou Yuanji looked at the dark anger in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it.

After talking about the matter from the household department and returning to the general's mansion, Chu Nanyue also had an idea in his heart.

Everyone knows that the struggle between the royal families is huge, but how could the prince's house not be?

Zhou Yuanchi has been loved by Wei Guogong and his wife since he was a child, and he has high hopes for his eldest son, and he must have always been the one who has received the most resources.

And Zhou Yuanji has always been suppressed, thinking that after arriving in the officialdom, he would be able to stand in the same position as his brother and stand in the same place. Be able to get the promotion you deserve through your own efforts.

But Zhou Yuanchi's series of actions in the household department undoubtedly gave Zhou Yuanji a slap in the face.

So they are brothers in harmony, and even Zhou Yuanchi himself feels that his younger brother will not have any other thoughts, because they are flesh and blood brothers with the same father and mother.

But in Zhou Yuanji's opinion, he has been suppressed by his brother, but it is not out of his own volition. If she had the opportunity, he would have been unwilling to live in such a state all the time.

Chu Nanyue felt interesting for a while, and paid attention to let Qingshuang investigate, but he didn't want to really find out these things.

Zhou Yuanqi has always been unhappy in his heart, and Chu Nanyue intends to do something for him.

I haven't thought about it yet, and I can't go to the Weiguo Mansion much, and as for the Duchess of Weiguo, who lives in a simple place, Chu Nanyue can't see it. It's nerve-wracking.

But I never thought that from the inside, the people of the Zhou family already had a dislike. Even though Duchess Wei Guo thought that she had removed the obstacle of Zhou Yuanqi, she probably never thought that one day, her two biological sons might fight together.

You must know that the current Duke of Weiguo, whose title of Duke of Wei and his marquis, will inevitably choose one of his sons to inherit in the future.

If Zhou Yuanqi was there, Zhou Yuanqi would definitely not have thought of this title. Because he is a concubine, he will never want to get what he can't get since he was a child.

But this matter is different for these two brothers today. Zhou Yuanji and Zhou Yuanchi are both sons-in-law, and their identities are originally not divided into concubines, but they are young and old.

And deciding whether they should get a knighthood based on the time of birth alone would be an unfair decision in either case.

Akari and the others are all anxious about the promotion in the household department, but this is just a reflection of the aspect. In the end, what they wanted was to inherit the position of the prince of the country.
