Doting on your wife to no end: The evil regent is reborn and is too clingy
Chapter 349: Getting Rid of the Old
Anyone who knows about the "Rouge Punishment" or not can tell that this is not an ordinary reward.
The noble families are united and share honor and disgrace. Who can't see that the eldest princess is trying to help the new nobles in dealing with the old ministers?
The nobles at the back stopped drinking their tea, looked over here, and winked at their wives one by one.
The ladies lowered their heads, glanced at each other, and finally made up their minds to kneel down.
Mrs. Song, the wife of the prince of Duke Su, happened to be standing between the new nobles and old ministers. Even the old lady was forced to kneel down. She took advantage of the situation and quietly moved behind the eldest princess and bent down.
Ladies: "Your Highness the Princess..."
Lin'an was not at all flustered, and added with a smile, "Those who ask for mercy should first be rewarded with rouge water."
Shen Yuanyuan couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Your Highness, what is Rouge Water?"
“Something that makes people look better.”
Lin An stroked Shen Yuanyuan's little face and raised his eyelids, "Move away and put on your makeup, don't scare my little Princess Yongjia."
The young guard in blue made a move and the guard with a sword stepped forward to drag the man away.
The noble men over there could no longer sit still and stood up one after another.
Today, the princess is not punishing the Anyuan Earl's family, and they are not protecting the Anyuan Earl's family.
"Daxia is a country of etiquette. Isn't it too frivolous for Her Royal Highness the Princess to impose punishment at will?"
The one who took the lead in speaking was Lord Han, the Duke of Su.
The Han family of Duke Suguo had the merit of following the dragon, but that was their ancestors. The greatest achievement of the current Lord Han in his life was probably to unite a group of old nobles in the capital.
Lin'an asked back: "The wife of the Marquis of Anyuan was disrespectful to the princess, insulted the princess behind her back, and deceived me. She had no respect for the superiors and was rude. Shouldn't she be rewarded?"
"In the past, officials dared to openly contradict the emperor and were not punished, but now women are labeled as rude and punished in public for joking. I would like to ask Your Highness, with such power, who will dare to speak in front of others in the future?"
"Does Her Royal Highness the Princess want all the courtiers and the people to become mute?"
The nobles cooperated, you spoke in dialect and I spoke next, and the nobles' wives understood and pleaded for mercy at the right time.
This is a combination of soft and hard tactics, and is aggressive.
The wives of the generals wanted to help, but they couldn't think of a bigger accusation to fight back with, so they were all very anxious.
The civil officials knew very well how to deal with the situation, but they neither agreed with the eldest princess's decision to impose penalties at will, nor did they look down on these old nobles who only ate the emperor's food but did nothing practical, so they just stood by and watched.
"See? The nobles are nothing to be afraid of. They are our biggest obstacle in the future."
"A bunch of old foxes."
Mo Chengying and Shen Yan were not allowed to report their return. They stood on the rockery, using the branches and leaves as cover and watched from the sidelines.
Since the civil officials did not step forward, those clean women naturally took the initiative to stay away from the muddy water and gathered somewhere else.
In a remote corner, the wife of Envoy Wen was tidying up her husband's clothes behind a tree.
"Let's go and help Lin'an. If we wait any longer, she might lose control and drag Mr. Han down with her to give her a slap in the face."
Shen Yangui held Mo Chengying's hand, and the two of them walked down the rockery, walked around to the main entrance, and walked slowly.
"…If Her Royal Highness the Princess is determined to punish the wife of a meritorious official, it will hurt the hearts of the officials. Then I would like to ask Her Royal Highness to order us to be punished together."
The nobles urged in unison: "Please, Princess, punish us together!"
Snap, snap, snap, snap——
There was applause behind the ministers. Everyone looked back suspiciously and their faces changed immediately - the Regent and his wife were standing behind them.
Everyone was shocked, not knowing when the Regent and the Princess would come over or how much they had heard.
Lin'an winked at Shen Yuanyuan, and Shen Yuanyuan immediately got off Lin'an's legs and ran through the crowd towards her sister and brother-in-law.
Jiang Peirong knew Yuanyuan's temper. Whenever she saw her sister, she would rush over and ask for a hug.
But this was happening in public, in front of all the officials. She was afraid that her little girl would be rude, but she didn't dare to speak out to stop her. Her heart was tightening with nervousness.
Shen Yuanyuan ran to Shen Yangui as usual, but the difference was that she knelt on her knees and said in a baby voice:
"I, Princess Yongjia, pay my respects to the Prince Regent and the Princess Regent."
Shen Yuanyuan folded her hands and kowtowed, looking very professional.
The ministers learned from this example, came to their senses, and followed suit.
"Your humble servant/your humble servant greets the Regent King and the Regent Princess."
Mo Chengying reached out and pulled Shen Yuanyuan up, looking at the officials in front of him and said, "I have not been in the court for a long time, and I didn't know that the officials are so united now. It really opens my eyes."
Who says gender has no advantages?
There are innate differences between men and women.
It was obvious that the Regent and the Princess Royal were equally unruly and reckless, and the Princess Royal was even more polite than the Regent. But because she was a woman, no matter how much the officials bowed to her, they were always a little arrogant and had a hint of rebellion in their bones.
Even if I am sentenced to death, I will not be afraid.
But they seemed to have an innate awe of the Regent.
Mo Chengying's meaningful compliment made them feel a chill in their hearts, and they all lowered their heads and kept silent.
Lin'an gave up his seat, and the guards added a carved chair.
The Regent and his wife held Shen Yuanyuan's hands on each side and walked forward through the crowd.
Shen Yuanyuan looked left and right, kicked her shoes high, took big steps, walked with her head held high and chest puffed out.
Shen Yangui sat down, looked at the person kneeling at his feet, and added kindly: "It is a blessing for Daxia that all the ministers are united."
The indifferent tone made the ministers bury their heads even lower.
"Your Highness, I just heard someone mention the wife of a meritorious official..." Shen Yangui glanced around and pretended to think, "But I don't know who it is?"
"Today's banquet is a wedding banquet for the emperor and his subjects after a long separation. It is also a celebration banquet to honor the meritorious officials. Your Majesty, please do not bury the meritorious officials and chill the hearts of the subjects."
Shen Yangui glanced sideways and replied back to those people.
After hearing this, Lin'an couldn't help but stand next to his aunt: She had been irritated by this group of old ministers for more than a year, and finally someone supported her.
"Your Highness, is that right?" Shen Yangui said.
Mo Chengying held Shen Yangui's hand and said, "Princess, you have been thoughtful. Since you are the family of a meritorious official, you took the initiative to come forward. This king will reward you handsomely."
The achievements of the Marquis of Anyuan need to be clearly stated by the court, or at least the Marquis of Anyuan himself needs to return to the capital. It is not something that the Marquis of Anyuan’s wife can talk about casually now. Moreover, she still remembers the whipping two years ago. How dare she be so presumptuous in front of Shen Yangui?
She lowered her head and said nothing.
"Your Highness, the people of Great Xia are known for their modesty and humility. If you take the initiative to ask for a reward, wouldn't that make you look like you are taking credit for something?" Shen Yangui looked at Duke Suguo, "I wonder which minister had such a keen eye just now?"
Duke Su played dumb and said nothing.
"Report——"
Eunuch Sui An came running over with a memorial in his hand, "My Lord, Princess, urgent battle report from the front 800 miles away."
The Regent and his wife acted surprised, and Mo Chengying reached out, "Bring it forward!"
He opened it and glanced at the contents he already knew, and said happily: "Nan Chu Xiaojie, Meng Shuhuai has won a city!"
Everyone looked at the prince's face, and he became happier and happier. Suddenly, his brows knitted together, as if he had seen something unbelievable. He muttered quietly, "Mr. Anyuan..."
Your Majesty, you don’t dare to believe that the Lin family can also achieve meritorious service, right?
Now the wife of the Marquis of Anyuan and the noble old ministers all became excited.
