The disgraced official I took care of was actually Zhu Houcong's childhood friend.

“I know you’re afraid of trouble. Since I’ve approached Young Master Zhou, I’ve naturally done some research on him. Whether it’s his talent or his character, Young Master Zhou is far superior to those so-called young talents in the capital.”

"Back then, Lu Wei, the youngest son of the Lu family, was also notoriously unruly. I heard that he was tamed by Young Master Zhou."

Zhou Chu was not surprised at all when he heard this.

As a princess, it would be unreasonable for her not to investigate beforehand after summoning me.

“I won’t ask you for help for nothing. I can help you release the Lu family members. My other nephew sent me a lot of letters before, hoping that I could help the Lu family. However, Lu Song’s matter may seem small, but it involves a lot of complicated issues.”

The princess sighed as she finished speaking.

Zhou Chu was somewhat surprised to hear this.

But he reacted quickly.

It should be a letter from Zhu Houcong to the princess.

Zhu Houcong and Lu Bing had an extremely good relationship, and that relationship extended beyond that.

The Lu family's ancestral home was in the fiefdom of the Prince of Xing. Lu Bing's grandfather was a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard within the Prince of Xing's territory.

After Yang gave birth to Lu Wei, Zhu Houcong was born less than a year later, and Yang became Zhu Houcong's wet nurse.

Zhu Houcong was extremely dependent on Lady Yang when he was young, and his feelings for both Lu Bing and Lady Yang were extraordinary.

Later, Zhu Houcong's birth mother, fearing that he would become too dependent on his wet nurse, asked Prince Xing to arrange a position for Lu Song as a centurion in the Imperial Guard in the capital.

Lu Song's family then moved to the capital.

Later, after Lu Bing's grandfather passed away, his position was inherited by Lu Bing.

Lu Bing told Zhou Chu all of these things.

"Speaking of which, I am also a princess, but in this capital city, I am hindered at every turn when I want to do something. Not to mention me, even the current emperor and the late emperor had many things they wanted to do but could not."

Zhou Chu believed what the princess said.

Now that Yang Tinghe and others control the government, although Zhu Houzhao has consolidated military power, he still has little say in many matters.

Not to mention the princess, the imperial son-in-law Lin Yue had no power; he was just a military officer.

Many things may not actually conflict with the interests of these civil officials, but as long as it is something the royal family wants to do, the civil officials will subconsciously want to object in order to demonstrate their control over the court.

"However, the imperial court investigated and punished some people a few days ago, so it's much easier to help the Lu family now. Whether Young Master Zhou agrees or not, I will help the Lu family."

After the princess said that, Zhou Chu had no reason to refuse.

It must be said that the eldest princess is very intelligent.

If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely use the Lu family's affairs to manipulate Zhou Chu, and might even conceal the crucial information that Zhu Houcong had sent him a letter.

In that case, Zhou Chu might agree, but he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

But the eldest princess not only did not hide it, but also said frankly that she would help the Lu family regardless of whether Zhou Chu agreed or not.

Once those words were spoken, Zhou Chu had no way to refuse.

The eldest princess knew Zhou Chu very well. As the saying goes, a gentleman deceives others with reason. Only in this way could Zhou Chu agree to this matter willingly, and at the same time, Tang Bohu would not be able to refuse.

Look, your students have all agreed, how can you, as a teacher, refuse?

This is also the eldest princess's tactic.

In fact, compared to Zhou Chu, the eldest princess valued Tang Bohu more.

She was one of Tang Bohu's biggest fans back then, but she kept those thoughts to herself and never said them aloud.

That year, she learned that Tang Bohu was in the capital, so she secretly ran away from the palace just to see him.

Later, she learned that Tang Bohu's hair had turned white overnight due to the death of his family and wife two years ago. She felt extremely heartbroken, but did not know how to comfort him.

In truth, she wasn't sure what kind of feelings she had for Tang Bohu; it was hard to explain, perhaps more like admiration.
