Zhou Shuren pulled over a pillow and lay down, "The Zhao family just keeps doing what they do, Zhao Bo secretly told me that things will settle down in a few days and asked me not to worry."
Zhulan sighed, "A great family truly has its connections—so well-informed."
Zhou Shuren uttered his agreement, "I suspect that the Northwest has gone to war since there have only been a couple of battles on the Northeast border."
Zhulan felt assured and no longer had anything to worry about. Lying next to Zhou Shuren with her eyes closed, she said, "Several northern prefectures allowed the people moving southward to come over, but once they reached Pingzhou City, they were sternly denied entry and passage. It looks like they're taking the chance to purge the officials of the prefectures that let the people through!"
Zhou Shuren hummed in response, "They probably wanted to cleanse for a while, now they're taking the chance to settle it all at once."
