The baby-making system is unreliable

Yun Xirou's eyes were on Liu Zhi. She was silent for a long while, frowned and shook her head, then she spoke slowly, her voice was hoarse and chaotic: "Of course, it may not be reliable. The world is bustling with people because of profit. There won't be many people willing to do things that have no benefits."

It's just that the Zhou family is still using it smoothly, and they can't find such a satisfactory replacement for the time being. Besides, the reason why their Zhou family can be "prosperous" is because they are aware of the times and do not covet power and wealth.

All they wanted was money. If necessary, they had the court's extra treasury. She would not do it easily unless it was absolutely necessary.

Yun Xirou frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then spoke again: "Liu Zhi, go and summon a few people for me. Remember, summon Zhao Shangyi as well, because I have something important to tell her in person!"

I heard that the Zhao family's old house was originally in Yizhou, and the Zhao family still had some connections there. It would be best to let Zhao Yu go to Yizhou to monitor that guy.

This matter is so big, according to Zhou Ke's cautious nature, he will definitely choose to go in person. Even if Zhou Ke is the person with the problem, he will definitely not miss the opportunity to find out the truth and eliminate the hidden dangers, and will also go to Yizhou in person.

Therefore, Yun Xirou made a prompt decision to send Zhao Yushu to Yizhou with her secret order to carry out this difficult task.

Later, after Wen Shengxian heard about this, he went to the palace to find her. It seemed that he had something to say.

With a creak, the palace door opened, and a pair of green boots stopped in front of Yun Xirou. Yun Xirou raised her eyes in surprise, put down the red brush in her hand, smiled gently and said, "You're here?!"

"Well, I have something to say. You know the Jade Mountain in Yinzhou, right? When I was in Yinzhou before, I asked the merchants there. I guess that is the target of the Zhou family." Wen Shengxian groped forward, subconsciously resting his chin, thinking and guessing.

It is the place where exquisite jade is produced in the greatest abundance. It is the only place in Yongchang with more mountains than water, and it is also the favorite place for merchants who like jade and the like.

Yun Xirou skillfully took his hand and led him forward. She was accustomed to leading the way for him, and when she saw him, she subconsciously worried that he would fall.

She didn't know much about Jade Mountain. After all, it was hundreds of miles away. How could she know the specific situation so clearly? "I don't know much about that place. What's wrong?! Is there something wrong?!"

The Jade Mountain is located near Yinzhou and Yizhou. Wen Shengxian guessed that if he went to Yizhou, he would most likely go to Yinzhou as well, in order to obtain those precious "jades".

Decades ago, when gems were dug out from the Jade Mountain, the governor of Yinzhou reported the matter. He united more than a dozen businessmen to formulate an agreement on how to divide the jade.

Since the government officials were involved in this matter, I think they should have given a lot to the court. Why did they suddenly bring this up? !

Wen Shengxian was held down by Yun Xirou's shoulders as she sat on the sandalwood-scented chair. She listened attentively and narrated in detail, "In the past, the Zhao family also secretly participated in the profit sharing. Later, there was an incident in which the Zhao family accepted a large amount of bribes. It is possible that the two are related."

Wen Shengxian felt that the market for precious stones and jade was a little strange at the time, but after all, it was the housekeeper who intervened, and he did not investigate in detail because he was in a hurry. Now it seems that there are many bribery cases!!!

"This group of people are simply insatiable!! Scoundrels!! In that case, let Zhao Yushu go and investigate together." Yun Xirou's face darkened. Needless to say, this would not look good. If Zhao Yushu was asked to investigate this, she would definitely take it seriously.

How could she not care about it when it concerns her family? Maybe there were other accomplices in the incident?! There may be many people's interests behind this?!

Wen Shengxian then picked out a few capable people, listed them one by one, and told Zhao Shangyi that these were the people who could be used if there was a shortage of manpower.

Those were people he had used before, so they were naturally a little more reliable and could help her get rid of the person behind the scenes as soon as possible. Who was it? !

Wen Shengxian raised his hand and touched the corner of her clothes, half of which seemed to be placed on her waist. He seemed to feel a little disappointed, and said in a low voice with anxiety: "I can only help you with these. I can't help you with anything else. I feel like a burden now."

It seems to be of no use at all. Even if it is raining from the sky, it can still water the flowers and plants.

But he seems like a child now, unable to help at all, and even bothering others to worry about whether he will fall into the ditch.

He sat quietly while Yun Xirou stood beside him, with his arms around her waist. If she smelled carefully, she could smell the scent of books on him.

"..." Yun Yurou smiled lightly. After she took over the state affairs, she was indeed very busy these days, but isn't this also an experience? !

Whether it is good or bad, it is possible for it to happen, but after it passes, it will be frozen there and can never be changed at all.

Perhaps, experiencing certain things may not allow us to solve all our problems instantly, but at least it can make us gradually become calm and composed, and slowly strengthen our hearts.

"I feel bad that you have to work until late every day. It seems like you never have time to rest. In the past, you could rest for half a day every day."

In the past, she was clearly a playful little girl, but all kinds of burdens still fell on her. Wen Shengxian just felt distressed, and her eyes turned red and she felt a little sad.

"Silly boy, someone has to do it!" Yun Yirou gently reached out her hand and stroked his hair as softly as the spring breeze, her eyes full of love and care. She sighed slightly and continued, "In fact, I have asked myself countless times why I am so tired and what good will this do for me."

"But I haven't thought of the answer. There is only one thing in my mind: someone has to do it. If I do more, maybe fewer people will sacrifice in Yongchang." Having said this, Yun Xirou paused for a moment, as if she was lost in her memories.

In this way, she felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and gradually got used to the busy daily schedule, but she did not feel bored.

On a certain afternoon, Yun Xirou might receive cakes from her sister, reminding her to take a rest and it’s okay to be lazy for a while.

Or, one night, Yun Yurou would sneak into Xiao Yuze's room and secretly take a look to see if the little guy was sleeping well, and whether he had kicked open the quilt again at night? !

You will slowly discover that it is not that difficult and it will pass quickly.

"I know, I know everything. I just don't want you to be too tired." Wen Shengxian clenched his fists at this moment. In fact, he just hated himself for not being able to help her a little more.

I just don't want her to be so tired and don't want her to carry everything on her shoulders. She is just a girl, that's all.

"I'm fine, who said you can't help me?!" Yun Xirou smiled and stretched out her arm. She touched a book from the table not far away and turned to the page with the bookmark.

This is the book that Wen Shengxian wrote in the past to teach officials of all ranks in the capital and their relationships. Today, the pages have turned yellow, and there is a small bookmark stuck in it, which is exactly the same as the bookmark Wen Shengxian usually uses.

Wen Shengxian loosened his hand, looked up at her, and reached out to touch the book. She said seriously, "Hey, feel it, isn't this what you prepared for me? It's useful!"

With these books as an introduction, she had a better idea of ​​how to deal with certain things, which was naturally helpful.

"On the contrary, you... look at you, you must not have eaten on time. You seem thinner than last time. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?!" As she spoke, Yun Xirou loosened her grip on the book, held his face with her eyes moving slightly, and spoke in a tone that sounded a little distressed.

"I... I'm fine, don't worry about me." Wen Shengxian backed off as if his little secret had been discovered, "How could I be hungry at home? It's just that I often hear about you and I feel sorry for you."

"You feel sorry for me!" Yun Yirou lowered her head, kissed his ear, and whispered word by word: "If you feel sorry for me, then treat yourself well, and then marry me and become my royal husband next summer. We can have a few little kids, and then you won't be bored anymore."

"..." Wen Shengxian's ears turned red instantly, his heart was beating with excitement in his chest, and he replied with his thin lips slightly parted, "Okay, I couldn't ask for more."

At the end of November of that year, the first snow fell in Yongchang State Capital, and the falling snowflakes added a chill.

Yun Xirou was worried about Wen Shengxian's health, afraid that he would catch a cold, so she gave him several high-quality fur coats.

Later, I heard that Wen Shengxian wore the fur coat every day, changing between the same few pieces, and he insisted on wearing it no matter where he went.

In mid-December, the winter chill swept across the long streets, and the plum blossoms all over the city gradually revealed their buds, adding a touch of red color to the snow.

The plum blossoms in the Wen residence were in full bloom, so Wen Shengxian ordered people to deliver plum blossoms every day. Later... later, only empty branches were left in the garden!!!

Uh... Meimei, I really feel a little aggrieved. The death was so quick and sudden. It was, it was really... quite sudden.

Ice gradually formed along the banks of the Bixi River. In this endless winter, even the river water that used to flow non-stop became quiet.

On the night before every household was about to stay up all night to celebrate the New Year, Zhao Yushu rushed back to the capital and spent a relatively warm New Year with her three siblings.

Xiao Yuze was always thinking about something and suddenly he started asking for dumplings and insisted on making them himself. I don't know who told him that the ones he made were delicious, but he made everyone busy in the middle of the night.

Xiao Yuze seemed to be taller, with two dimples on his face when he smiled: "Big sister, second sister, look at me, this is almost enough?! Yours almost didn't cover it!! No, no, no!!"

Yun Xirou raised her eyes half angrily, half looking at him jokingly: "What's wrong with you? Are you looking for a beating, you little brat?!"

"Is it really that bad?!" Yuan'an slowly lowered his head, and his eyes drooped as he looked at what he had wrapped in his hands. Crystal clear tears rolled in his eyes, and he couldn't hold them back in the end, and they slid down his cheeks.

Zhao Yushu, who was busy nearby, heard this and immediately stopped what he was doing and gently placed the dumplings he had just wrapped on the table.

He walked quickly to Yuan'an, reached out his hand and gently patted her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't be sad, sister Yuan'an, this package is very beautiful. Who said it's not good? It's very good. What's wrong with it? It's not bad at all!"

"Second sister, I was just kidding. Second sister, don't cry!" When little Yuze saw his sister crying, he panicked and ran to Yuan'an like an agile little rabbit to apologize.

Seeing her sister's face full of tears, the little girl felt very distressed and said anxiously: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have said nonsense and made you sad. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." As she spoke, she used her chubby little hands to wipe away the tears from Yuan'an's face.

Yun Yurou tapped Xiao Yuze on the forehead and said in a scolding tone, "You naughty boy, go to school when spring comes."

Upon hearing this, the little guy hid behind his second sister, which made Yuan'an couldn't help laughing. He looked like he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

At the same time, Wen Shengxian also accompanied his parents and uncles, and the family spent a warm and happy New Year amid the lively voices of the younger generations.

In early February of this year, although it was spring, Zhao Yushu set out again, saying that things at Yushishan were a bit complicated and she needed time to think things over.

At this time, since it was already spring, the children should go to school. In this way, Yun Xirou could see him every day, which was a blessing.

Small theater: Winter gift giving

One day it was snowing. After Yun Xirou finished her government affairs, she walked to the window to get some fresh air and found that the air was really cold.

Yun Yurou stood in front of the window, rubbing her hands and putting on a thicker coat: "The weather is too cold. Send some cloaks to Yanzhi."

"Okay!!" The Liuzhi courier took action immediately and will deliver +N cloaks to you today.

After receiving the cloak, the corners of a certain person's mouth curled up again and again, and he touched the fine cloak: "It was given to me, it was given to me by him, do you see it!!!"

No one else has it! ! So happy! ! ! I want to wear it every day, every day, every day... every day xN.

Han Yi coughed helplessly: "..." Sir, please put away that obsessed look on your face, it's really a bit dazzling.

One day, when the plum blossoms were just beginning to bloom, Wen Shengxian was alone and had nothing to do, so he took a leisurely walk in the yard. He "passed" the plum branches that Han Yi had pushed aside and smelled the fragrance of the plum blossoms.

Wen Shengxian suddenly had an idea and raised his lips: "The plum blossoms are in bloom. I remember there are no plum blossoms in Qiyu Palace. I'll send a few for Yuanning to enjoy."

How many!? Okay, okay, the plum blossoms in the Wen Family Plum Garden have all been picked. I will give you a few flowers every day when I have nothing to do. I will give you a few flowers every day when I have nothing to do. There will be no more flowers left!!

Han Zhi looked at the branches in the garden, speechless: "..." The young master must have his reasons for doing this! !

All the plum blossoms died, cause of death: picking a few every day, picking them one by one cleanly! !
