The baby-making system is unreliable

Zhao Yushu ignored this Master Lin. Since he was the son of Minister Lin, the Empress should have the final say if he made any mistakes. She naturally did not want to meddle in other people's affairs.

Instead, she glanced at the scholar surnamed Xu calmly, then glanced at a servant beside her, and then said, "In the early years, Linzhou's water bandits were rampant, and the people were all oppressed by them. Life was miserable."

The pirates in Linzhou often commit murder and robbery. The whole Linzhou is completely oppressed. Even the largest shops on the street are in tatters, not to mention the street vendors.

The pirates forced the people to hand over their stored food. If they refused, they would be killed or burned. Ordinary people could not even afford food and clothing in their houses.

There were gradually more and more street thugs, all of whom had lost their homes after their houses were burned down and were left homeless. They could only gather in the ruined temples and charity cemeteries in Lincheng City, where they stayed and survived.

"But it's not like this these years. I heard that the houses of the people in Linzhou have been rebuilt and the household registration has been implemented. This is all thanks to the Imperial Master. If he hadn't led the troops to suppress the bandits that year, would you still be standing here now!?"

Zhao Yushu glanced at this scholar Xu. His clothes were not expensive, but they were definitely not tattered and looked clean.

Today, the people of Linzhou can enjoy this peace and stability, thanks to what Wen Shengxian did when he was eleven years old, but how long has it been since then, have they forgotten all that?! ?

It would be fine if others said a few words, but how could Xu Shusheng, a native of Linzhou, have the qualifications to slander his reputation like this? !

"I...this, this is all about one thing and one thing only?! It is true that Brother Wen helped me to suppress the bandits in Linzhou. That was his duty as a subject. How can he take credit for it?!" Xu Shusheng looked shameless. His face was simply disgusting. He had no sense of gratitude at all.

"If he is trying to flatter the emperor and block his ears, he is wrong. The talented people and writers in the world can certainly speak out." Such words clearly show his dissatisfaction and are shameless.

As soon as these words were spoken, several people in the teahouse began to look at them with more scholarly gazes, and there were discussions among them privately, and there were more buzzing sounds in the lobby.

A man holding a fan whispered to his companions: "What the scholar said is not wrong. As the saying goes, it is the duty of civil servants to serve the people while eating the emperor's salary."

"But you can't say that. The accusation of seducing the emperor and blocking his ears is too harsh." The accomplice looked younger and spoke timidly, feeling that there was no need for such serious words.

The man holding the fan nodded, frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Yeah, that's true. Although the empress has only been on the throne for a short time, the methods she has used since she took the throne, tsk tsk...everything has been handled properly?!"

The young man in green at the side table took a sip of tea. There was a jade flute on the table. His eyes moved slightly and he said with a smile on his face, "What the two brothers said is right, but what happened back then was indeed quite a big deal. Who in the capital didn't know about it?! The entire Wen family was implicated and had to leave the capital. This is really not a good thing to say."

"Hmph!" Zhao Yushu snorted coldly when he heard that, put down the teacup in his hand, slowly stood up, and glanced around without any fear.

This teahouse is not big and there are too many people. Everyone's eyes are focused here. Looking around, you can make eye contact with almost everyone.

At this time, Zhao Yushu paced back and forth, and after a moment, he spoke loudly again: "There are so many scholars and writers in the world, and it is not right to comment on other people's private affairs. Emperor Chanwen behaved improperly and was cruel. The people suffered from the war, so everyone has the right to scold him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the teahouse fell into silence. Only her voice could be heard. Every word she said was extremely pertinent and was for the benefit of the people.

"But the empress has done nothing wrong in her administration. She has handled matters with moderation and the people have rested and recuperated. This cannot be false. The two of them are both disciples of the Imperial Master, but they handle things completely differently. Isn't it their own problem?! Instead, they say that the Imperial Master is wrong. How ridiculous!?"

The Imperial Master taught all the royal children together. Since they studied together, how could he favor one over the other? It was clearly because of the different personalities of the siblings. How could he blame the Imperial Master?!

"You always talk about the spirit of scholars. In the beginning, there were not many people who gave advice to the late emperor and advised His Majesty to act in order to uphold the pride of scholars. Now, people are saying that there is something wrong with the empress's wedding!? How can this be justified? " Zhao Yushu is now alone, so naturally she speaks more freely than those who have a family. After all, she is an orphan without a father or a mother, so what is there to be afraid of! ?

At that time, there were many fence-sitters in the court who were only concerned with protecting themselves. Even the people from the Li and Liang families, after trying to persuade them several times, saw that the emperor would not listen, so they stopped talking.

This being the case, not to mention all the other things, she wished the emperor would treat her as air and never even think of her.

"Back then, the Imperial Master dared to speak out and made remonstrations, kneeling outside the Qi Zheng Palace for a long time. Why didn't any scholar praise his character? Now, they want to accuse the Imperial Master of being a flatterer!"

Such a big hat is put on him, how shameless! It is clear that except for the Imperial Master, no one else did anything! ? Now that the matter is over, it is said that it was the Imperial Master who did the wrong thing!

"What's the matter? Xu... Scholar, you had a very pleasant chat with Master Lin today, so there must be something important?! Why don't you tell us, so that everyone present can hear how the important matter you two discussed reflects your literary style?!" She emphasized the last four words very heavily, and there was even a hint of coldness in her words.

"I...you...you...who are you?!" Xu Shusheng pointed at Zhao Yushu and stammered. He was so angry that he couldn't say anything to refute. His face turned red.

This clown hanging from the beam looks so funny that people don't even bother to pay attention to him. Such a person may not be able to enter the court in the future.

Zhao Yushu paused and said calmly: "I am not a nobleman, but just a nobody. I just can't stand people using dirty words. They have dirty eyes and see everything dirty!?"

What happened here needs to be explained in detail to the Empress, and there are attendants who record every word so that it will be convenient to report back to the Empress.

It is still early in the autumn exam, but candidates have already started to think of ways to curry favor with the chief examiner. If such things are not restricted, what will happen in the future? ?

The Zhao family was originally a civil servant family, and they have some integrity. They cannot stand those who play tricks behind the scenes. Since he has encountered what happened today, he will report it to the empress and will never sit idly by.

……

As night fell, a breeze gradually rose, adding a bit of freshness. The interesting things happening in the teahouse have been widely talked about in recent days.

There were many more sighs and discussions in the teahouses in the capital. Storytellers spread the stories that happened in the teahouses, and it seemed that they remembered what Wen Shengxian did when he was young, so they wrote storybooks to tell the stories.

Inside the Qi Yu Palace, there was an ancient charm everywhere. The palace had a bit more festive atmosphere and looked particularly different. From behind the curtains filled with fragrance, there were voices of a man and a woman cuddling with each other.

The house was filled with a charming atmosphere. Needless to say, everyone knew what had happened. Liu Zhi's voice came from the ear room: "Your Majesty, the water is ready."

A corner of the curtain was gently lifted, and a graceful woman walked out first. She was wearing a light pink middle-length dress, and her cloud-like hair was casually tied up, which made her face look more delicate and charming.

The man following closely behind was also very elegant and followed behind him slowly. Yun Xirou took Wen Shengxian off the couch and walked towards the ear room together.

When the two of them came to the bathtub, they slowly took off their inner clothes. Her skin as white as mutton-fat jade looked even more crystal clear under the candlelight.

Then, they stepped into the water carefully. There was a "splash" sound and water splashed everywhere, wetting the ground. The warm water wrapped around their bodies, making them feel extremely comfortable and relaxed.

About half an hour later, the noise in the ear room stopped. After tidying up a bit, the two returned to the couch hand in hand.

Looking at the bed in the hall again at this time, I found that it had been replaced with brand new bedding, which was embroidered with exquisite patterns and exuded a faint fragrance.

"I think Yanzhi is too handsome. He is indeed a clingy monster. I don't want to leave you for a moment." Yun Xirou deliberately said this in a frivolous and ambiguous tone, as if she had become a playboy lingering among the flowers.

She stretched out her slender jade fingers and gently caressed his beautiful face with her fingertips, the delicate touch was like the finest silk. Her fingertips slowly slid across his cheeks and chin, and finally stopped at the graceful neck.

She looked at Yanzhi's handsome face, and couldn't help but sigh at the partiality of the Creator, who could give such a perfect face to a person.

The high nose bridge, the bright eyes like stars, the slightly upturned lips, all make people fall for her. She is really a charming and enchanting demon. Such beauty is really irresistible, and Yun Xirou doesn't want to leave for even a moment.

At this time, Wen Shengxian was lying on his side beside Yun Xirou, with a faint smile on his face. He gently held Yun Xirou's soft and boneless jade fingers with one hand, and his other hand accidentally touched the emerald green jade ring on her finger.

He leaned down calmly, and placed a kiss on the ring, and said softly to Yun Yi: "I feel the same way. I don't want to leave you at all. Now I am more and more addicted to the warm time in Qi Yu Palace. I like lying in Qi Yu Palace. It makes me feel at ease."

Wen Shengxian smiled faintly, and the warm breath he exhaled when he spoke brushed past Yun Xirou's ears like a spring breeze, making her feel itchy.

Then, Yun'er's eyes, as soft as water, moved as she glared coquettishly at the handsome and charming man beside her. A blush quietly climbed up her fair cheeks, making her as beautiful as a peach blossom blooming in spring.

"Huh, in the past when I wasn't around, you must have had trouble sleeping every night, right? Now that you have me to keep you company, you realize how lonely and unbearable it is to sleep alone at night, right?!" She pouted her pink lips slightly, snorted softly, and then chuckled slowly, as if she was both shy and happy.

As Yun Xirou spoke, she gently poked his chest with her green jade fingers, a playful look on her face.

After hearing this, Wen Shengxian responded with a doting smile. He pulled Yun Xirou into his arms, letting her soft body press tightly against him, and then responded softly: "Isn't that right? Since I had you, I know what a gentle place is. Those days before were like a year!"

Before he finished speaking, the man lowered his head impatiently like a child craving for delicious food and gave Yun Xirou another passionate kiss on her tender lips.

"Tomorrow is the day when Princess Yuan'an's mansion will move. It's a pity that I can't go there in person to congratulate her. I can't help feeling a little disappointed and regretful." Taking many etiquettes and rules into consideration, Yun Xirou could only choose to present a carefully prepared gift to express her gratitude.

"If you want to go, you can go secretly." Hearing this, Yun Yurou couldn't help but glared at him in reproach, and actually reached out her hand and gently hit his shoulder, saying coquettishly: "You are the only one who would come up with such a bad idea! What if someone sees us?"

If she was discovered, those people from the Censorate would definitely write a memorial to scold her. She didn't care about that, but it was too annoying.

"Zhao Shangyi did a great job at Yushishan. I always think about how to reward her. But she has no family anymore, so she just says it's not necessary when I ask her." Whenever she thought of this, Yun Xirou couldn't help but sigh softly. Although there was some helplessness in that sigh, it was mostly sympathy and pity for Zhao Shangyi's life experience.

However, when asked what kind of reward Zhao Shangyi wanted, she shook her head repeatedly, saying that she had no relatives alive and did not need any reward.

"I'm afraid that what she wants is very important!" Wen Shengxian frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, as if he remembered something, and there was a bit more depth in his words.

Yun Xirou smiled and reached out her hand to gently pinch his straight nose bridge. She leaned close to his ear with a coquettish look and whispered in a low voice with a sweet breath: "Oh, never mind. I have more important things to do now." After that, her big watery eyes blinked mischievously, revealing a hint of cunning.

Then, Yun Xirou's cheeks turned slightly red. She opened her red lips and whispered softly in his ear, "I want to have a child so that I can see you taking care of the baby in the swaddling clothes. It's interesting to think about seeing you frantically taking care of the delicate baby in the swaddling clothes in the future."

As soon as she finished speaking, she shyly buried her head in Wen Shengxian's broad and warm arms, leaving only one of her little hands still tightly clutching the collar of his shirt.

"You want to embarrass me?" Wen Shengxian lowered his head and chuckled, and a charming and hoarse voice sounded: "Can I take care of a baby too!?"

He had taken care of two little nephews before, although not for long, but it was not that he had never taken care of them.
