Newlyweds divorced: Marry a scumbag and his brother is sweet and have a baby

The queen's knee happened to hit the stone steps. Based on her feeling, she felt that it should be broken. She was so painful that tears welled up in her eyes, but she gritted her teeth and endured it without saying a word.

"Empress? Are you injured? I'll call the doctor now!"

Rong Yue asked eagerly, supporting the queen and scolding angrily, "How did these palace servants clean this place? Later, the servants will ask who cleaned this place, and they will be punished severely!"

"No!" The queen said in a serious tone, "You can't call the imperial doctor either!"

"Yes, empress." Rong Yue didn't ask why.

"Just pretend that what happened just now never happened. Support me and let's go see the emperor." The queen warned.

"Yes." Rong Yue supported the queen and continued to the royal study.

At the end of November, Yan Qing took everyone back to the capital.

Shen Yan went to pick them up personally.

"Master, we are back, there are many of us." Yan Qing completed the task.

"Very good, thank you for your hard work." Shen Yan said with a smile, "Let's go into the palace."

At this time, Emperor Xuande was attending the morning court in the Qiankun Hall.

Everyone entered the palace and saluted Emperor Xuande, "I have met the emperor."

"Flat body."

Emperor Xuande looked at Yan Qing and others with a smile on his face, "You have worked hard all the way. Congratulations on winning the first place individually and first place as a team in the competition. Double happiness. This is the first time since the founding of the Qin Dynasty that you have achieved such an amazing result." For your achievements, I thank you for bringing glory to the country."

He was delighted from the bottom of his heart and his eyes were filled with pride.

All the civil and military officials present were also deeply touched. This time, Da Qin was proud and proud in Kyushu.

Now only Nan Bancang is left among the giants of the family, and he alone cannot turn the tide.

The other officials looked at Shen Yan and the others with admiration.

"Everyone who takes part in the competition this time will be rewarded!" Emperor Xuande began to award rewards based on merit.

"Lu Fei listens and appreciates it!"

"Lu Fei is here." Lu Fei knelt down, his eyebrows flying.

Emperor Xuande said, "I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold and a pair of jade chess pieces..."

Having raided the homes of Yan Chonghou and Ning Zhengxun, the treasury was now full, and Emperor Xuande's rewards were also particularly rich.

They came one after another, and finally arrived at Shen Yan.

After Emperor Xuande rewarded her with gold, silver and jewels, he said to everyone seriously -

"Princess Youning cares about the people, has superb medical skills, tests poisons with her own body, cures plagues, saves seedlings, eliminates treacherous ministers and enemies, builds weapons to protect the country, teaches and educates people, and brings glory to the country. She is a blessing to the Qin Dynasty."

"The country cannot live without a prime minister for a day. I have decided to make Princess Youning the first female prime minister of the Qin Dynasty. Do you have any opinions?"

"Your Majesty, no."

Nan Bancang still habitually stood up and raised objections, "In all dynasties, there has never been a precedent for a woman to be a prime minister. Women are short-sighted, jealous, and indecisive, and are not suitable for being a prime minister."

Emperor Xuande looked at Nan Bancang and frowned. Even if Nan Bancang was not a tycoon in the family, he would not like him.

Since he came to the throne, Nan Bancang will always oppose no matter what opinions he puts forward.

Nan Bancang seemed to never acknowledge him or obey him, and kept denying him.

What use would he have for such a minister?

"Father, I also think this is not allowed." Xie Chengxuan was the second person to stand up.

"Women are not allowed to get involved in politics. I admit that Princess Youning is talented and has made many contributions to the court. However, she is my father's servant, and what she does is what she should do."

Xie Chengxuan's attitude was sincere, "Father, if you look at the past, when women are in power, there will be endless troubles. Please think twice."

Xie Chenglin also stood up, "Father, my sons and ministers also think it is not possible. Princess Youning will marry Prince Ling in the future, and it is definitely not possible for a princess to be the prime minister."

……

Others also disagreed. It was not that they disagreed with Shen Yan's talent, but they felt that Shen Yan was a woman and not worthy of being a prime minister.

Men have always been the ones who call the shots in the world.

In the eyes of men, women only deserve to be in purdah and rely on them to survive.

Once a woman breaks out of purdah, gains knowledge, and no longer relies on them, they will have a sense of crisis.

Moreover, in this era, asking them to obey a woman's orders feels like an insult to their dignity.

Of course, this is not what all men think.

"Your Majesty, I think Princess Youning is worthy of this post." The first person to agree was Sheng Jingliang, Minister of War.

Sheng Jingliang used to be the prefect of Huainan. During the flood and plague in Huainan, he performed particularly well and made great contributions.

After Yan Chonghou died, Emperor Xuande promoted him.

"The emperor's move is wise, and I also feel that Princess Youning is the best candidate to be the prime minister." said the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

"I also agree," said the Minister of Hubu.

……

Half of the civil and military officials in the court agreed with Emperor Xuande's opinion, and Emperor Xuande's face looked a little better.

"You Ning, what's your opinion?" Emperor Xuande asked.

"I thank the emperor for his trust and respect for me, but I am not the most suitable person to be the prime minister." Shen Yan refused.

All the civil and military officials in the DPRK were shocked.

As a princess, she does not have real power in her hands, but it is different as the Prime Minister of a country. She does have real power in her hands.

However, they only see the surface.

Shen Yan is a person who holds the Red Sky Sword. She can kill relatives of the emperor and corrupt officials. She doesn't need the title of prime minister at all.

"Why?" Emperor Xuande asked.

"Your Majesty, education is the foundation of the country, and the education plan is also a century-old plan. I want to continue teaching and educating people, and do my best to contribute to the court."

This was Shen Yan's innermost thoughts. If she wanted the supreme power, she wouldn't have gone to great lengths to set up an academy.

"Listen! Listen!" Emperor Xuande's voice suddenly turned cold, and he looked at the people who opposed his opinions at first, "I feel ashamed for you! Princess Youning doesn't even want the official position you think is great! "

"When a person comes to this world, he should always do something meaningful. Don't keep your eyes on fame and fortune. I hope that when you get old, you can tell me loudly like Sun Yuanzhuo that you are worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of the court and the people. People!"

Emperor Xuande's voice fell, and everyone responded in unison, "I will remember the emperor's teachings!"

However, how many people like Sun Yuanzhuo are there in the entire history?

"You Ning, you just said that you are not the most suitable candidate, then who do you think is the most suitable?" Emperor Xuande asked.

"I think Yan Qing is the most suitable." Shen Yan said.

"Tch, Princess Youning, just now my father was praising you for not pursuing fame and fortune. I didn't expect you to change so quickly. You are Yan Qing's master. What's the difference between Yan Qing being the prime minister and you being the prime minister?" Xie Chengxuan Full of sarcasm.

"Of course there is a difference." Shen Yan looked at Xie Chengxuan and spoke word by word.

"Yan Qing is Yan Qing, and I am me. He is himself first, then the emperor's minister, and finally my disciple. If he is the prime minister, he will do it for the benefit of the people and the court, not for me. .”

"Is it possible that because the Fourth Highness doesn't like a person, he refuses to use the truly talented people around him?" Shen Yan asked in return.
