After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

The emperor had been in a very bad mood these days, and was already upset because of various trivial matters. He also learned from the secret guards what Lin Youan, the little bastard, had done, and he was so angry that he summoned him into the palace and scolded him as usual.

"You have really grown up, you little brat, always having eight hundred thoughts! I just turned my head and you promised my princess to someone else?

After finding a stepmother for yourself, you now look for a stepfather. Your life is quite busy every day!

Who allowed you to act on your own? Do you think I can't bear to punish you? You are such a capable little bastard! "

Lin Youan knelt on the ground with his small body, hands behind his back and head lowered, looking very well behaved. After the old emperor vented for a while, he bowed respectfully and defended himself.

"Your Majesty, Youan is also thinking that my mother is almost 20 years old. Most women of this age have already married and had children. She really can't delay any longer."

She quietly raised her eyes and glanced at the emperor's face. After making sure that he was not really angry, she dared to continue explaining.

"Another thing is that General Shen is indeed not young anymore. His Royal Highness Prince Xuan and Uncle Chu San, who are about the same age as him, already have children, but he is the only one who has not yet married. I was thinking..."

"What are you thinking? You are really considerate of Shen Mufeng. You are his father, right?"

The emperor said something in a bad mood. The little brother was already familiar with this kind of emotionally unstable adult. He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and the dimples on his lips were faintly visible.

"No. But if nothing unexpected happens, he will probably be my dad in the future!"

"Humph. You don't shy away from strangers!"

Give him a cold look and let him experience it himself. The emperor continued to look sarcastic.

"Lin Youan, I find that you are really smart! If you need a mother, go find her yourself; if you need a father, go find your father yourself; if you need ancestors, go find your ancestors yourself. What else are you going to lack next? Why don't you tell me in advance so that I can learn from you?"

"Hey hey hey."

Lin Youan rubbed his hands embarrassedly.

"As the old saying goes, children from poor families grow up early. I was forced to do this, so please don't take a stab at an ignorant kid like me."

Seeing this little bastard making the same signature move as his silly daughter, the emperor waved his hand in pain.

"Go away, go back to Hongwenguan to study, and stop worrying about trivial matters all day long. If you can't pass the imperial examinations in the future, you'll be finished if I don't forgive you!"

Is this another mess?

"Yes, kid, go back to school now."

A smile flashed in Lin Youan's eyes, and he kowtowed and took his leave quickly, with such skillful movements that the emperor was so angry that he laughed.

"What a brat! No wonder he can't grow tall. I guess his whole body is made of tricks!"

Butler Wei, who was serving on the side, also bowed and spoke with a smile on his face.

"This child is also smart. He knows that Your Majesty is magnanimous and will not really make a fuss with him. Otherwise, how could he dare to be so disrespectful?"

"Huh, you know this again?"

Manager Wei lowered his waist even more, looking respectful and harmless.

"I am an old and stupid servant, how can I know anything? I just heard a lot of gossip."

The master and servant had been together for nearly 20 years. How could the emperor not hear the hidden meaning in the other party's words? The smile on his face faded a little, and he turned the rosary in his hand indifferently.

"Well, let's hear it."

"Yes."

After organizing his words in his mind, he tried to make the matter sound as light as possible.

"I heard that there are rumors in the capital recently, saying that Dasheng and Dayuan are coming here for marriage. Otherwise, they wouldn't have brought so many noble ladies and even princesses.

And this time they don’t want to marry the princess of Da Qi, but want to marry someone to our Da Qi. It doesn’t matter if it’s a son or grandson of the emperor, or a man from a noble family.”

Manager Wei still had a smile on his face, as if he was really talking about something funny.

"Perhaps Young Master Lin heard this nonsense from somewhere, which is why he was so anxious to marry Princess Rongchang off.

After all, General Shen's handsomeness is known to everyone. If a noble lady from another country really wants to marry a man from Da Qi, it should be difficult for her not to choose General Shen, right?"

The emperor's eyebrows did not move, but the smile on the corners of his mouth gradually cooled.

"Where did this come from?"

"We haven't found out yet, but everyone in the capital who should know knows about it. So in the past few days, many wealthy families have been trying to find marriages for their outstanding children, for fear that they will be pointed out for marriage."

After reporting everything that needed to be reported, Chief Steward Wei took a step back and stood respectfully, his aura quickly blending with the objects in the hall.

"Oh, it's really hard for those who are so thoughtful. They have helped me think of things that I didn't think of.

You can spread the word, I am not the original Yuan Emperor Zeren Luojia, who needed to give the position of Crown Princess to marry another country in order to fight the enemy. The heir of my Great Qi will never come from the womb of a woman of a foreign race.

As for those noble families, it's up to them. They can marry whomever they want. I don't have the leisure to worry about the marriages of my ministers' children.

I am too busy with government affairs every day!"

"Yes!"

Steward Wei stepped forward to change a cup of warm tea for his master, and made a few jokes with a smile.

"It seems that Young Master Lin really thought too much this time. After all, he is still a child and not steady enough. Such a hasty move can be regarded as fulfilling General Shen's wish."

The emperor picked up the teacup, took a few sips and put it aside. He picked up a memorial that he had not yet finished reviewing from the table and complained as he read it.

"And you said you didn't take his benefits, and every time you pick on others to speak for this little bastard."

"Your Majesty, you are wrongly accusing me, aren't you? I really didn't take a single copper coin from him.

It's just that Princess Rongchang has instructed me to help look after the children.

Your Majesty, I have accepted the reward from the Princess, so shouldn't I do my best to take care of Young Master Lin?"

He touched the purse he carried with him, and found that the copper coins inside had been polished to a bright shine. A comfortable smile appeared on the old face of Wei Zongguan.

With such a talisman, as long as he doesn't seek death on purpose in the future, I think he should be able to live peacefully with the emperor until the day he martyrs.

The emperor cursed him with his eyes, calling him an old fool, then turned his gaze back to the memorial in his hand and picked up the red pen to review it.

Although the emperor loved to eat melons, he was also a diligent emperor who loved his people. Since he ascended the throne, he never slacked off in government affairs, and he worked diligently at his desk for decades, which was really rare.
