He's not afraid of investigations. He's never taken advantage in confiscating properties, nor taken a single coin from the Ministry of Revenue.
The Emperor heard the footsteps and glanced at Zhou Shuren, then at the rack, feeling even more troubled. Who can be as meticulous as Zhou Shuren?
Zhou Shuren noticed the Emperor frowning, then suddenly smiling. He felt puzzled, "Emperor?"

Zhou Shuren was more bewildered. What was so funny?
At the Royal manor, Zhou Shuren alighted from the carriage with a wooden expression. All the way, the Emperor's mood was extraordinarily good, he considered himself knowledgeable about the Emperor, yet couldn't grasp the key point this time, and the Emperor kept smiling at him, making him feel uneasy.
