Zhou Shuren's carriage rode alongside the Crown Prince's, with the curtains open, and the Crown Prince showed no intention of stopping.
The Crown Prince leaned against the carriage window, "Minister Zhou, are you returning home from the government office?"
Zhou Shuren's mind, however, was occupied with thoughts of what the Crown Prince had been up to that day since he hadn't seen him in the palace that afternoon, "Yes, I am going home."
Upon hearing the word "home," the Crown Prince knew that Zhou Shuren cared about his family and chuckled lightly, "Previously, it was quite common for ministers of the Ministry of Revenue to live in their offices. Since Minister Zhou took up his post there, very few people have chosen to reside in the Ministry for an extended period. Among The Six Ministries, both the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites have the tradition of leaving the office when the time comes."
