Zhao Junsheng asked: "People come here for her craftsmanship, so she can be busy with so many shops?"

"I heard that she also hired a lot of tailors, and she didn't do it alone, and only this shop can make clothes, other shops sell ready-made clothes and fabrics!"

While they were talking, Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan brought their children to Wan Yutong's shop, and a woman greeted him, "Do you want to order clothes or buy ready-made clothes and fabrics?"

Hua Mulan said, "I'm looking for you Miss Wan!"

"Please invite the two of you, I'll go miss!"

Wan Yutong heard that someone was looking for her, and she came out while she was sewing clothes. She saw Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan wearing ordinary clothes with their children. Junsheng winked at her again and again.

Hua Mulan said first, "Miss Wan, your business is so busy!"

Wan Yutong smiled and said: "What wind brought Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao here, please come inside and serve tea!"

"Okay!" Hua Mulan carried the child and followed Wan Yutong to the inner room.

"Master Zhao? Am I that old?" Zhao Junsheng curled his lips, led the child and walked in behind.

Behind the tailor shop is a yard, which is well cleaned and neatly arranged. There is a stone table in the middle, four stone benches around it, and a big tree beside it.

Wan Yutong made tea for Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan, and put some folk snacks on the table. Although the level of refinement was not as good as the cakes and snacks made by the royal chefs in the palace, the taste was not bad. The two children had never tasted them before. I think it's delicious.

Wan Yutong teased the eldest brother Zhao Dong and the second child Zhao Rui, "In a blink of an eye, these two children are already this big!"

Zhao Junsheng said to the two children: "Have you called someone yet? Call me aunt!"

The two children didn't recognize their birth, so they opened their mouths and called, "Auntie!"

"Okay, okay!" Wan Yutong was very happy, and kept teasing the siblings.

Zhao Junsheng asked: "I heard that these days, many people ask matchmakers to come to propose marriage. Could it be that not one of them caught your eye?"

Wan Yutong stopped playing with the children, and said with a smile: "It's easy to find a husband's family, but it's difficult to find a good man. It's only once in this life. You can't marry yourself in a daze, right? You still have to be cautious!"

Zhao Junsheng couldn't help looking at Hua Mulan.

Hua Mulan looked over, glared at him, and said to Wan Yutong: "Well... Yutong, you should go to the palace, I don't mind, now that there are more children, I can't take care of them if I want to take care of them." on him..."

Zhao Junsheng next to him was stunned, what's going on, why are you talking nonsense without discussing it with me?

Wan Yutong immediately shook his head and said, "Mulan, what are you talking about? You are now a princess, so you can't take this kind of joke!"

"No, Yutong, listen to me, I mean it sincerely, I'm not joking!"

Wan Yutong said with a straight face when he heard the words: "Since you said you were not joking, well, then I will tell you, I am not joking, I will not enter the palace, even if you are all willing, I am not willing !"

Hua Mulan turned her head to look at Zhao Junsheng: "Look, you've been despised by others!"

Zhao Junsheng yelled at Qu: "Why is it all about me again?"

"Do you think that if you survived the first day of junior high school, you can escape the fifteenth year of the capital? I think you just don't want to be responsible!" Hua Mulan said mercilessly.

Zhao Junsheng feels very wronged, don't I want to take responsibility?I don't want to owe emotional debt either, but how do I know what's on your mind?

Hua Mulan turned her head and said to Wan Yutong: "Yutong, actually, I have wanted to tell you about this for a long time, but I just couldn't find the chance. Besides, I also know your temper, but now I won't come I can't find you!"

"Now I'm the only mistress in the palace, and he's pretty safe. He didn't provoke those maids, but the ministers in the court have great opinions. They always think that I occupy him alone, and think that the royal family should have more Many children and grandchildren are conducive to inheritance. If you want to have many children and grandchildren, you must let him have more women! If I am the only mistress in this palace, there will be some rumors outside the palace, saying that I am jealous and cannot tolerate others Women! The ministers are always persevering, and they want Brother Junsheng to accept more concubines. The pressure on Brother Junsheng is also relatively high. I thought for a long time. Instead of taking advantage of other women, it is better for us sisters to do it for Brother Junsheng together. What a virtuous housemate, you and I have a deep affection as sisters, and you won’t fight back and forth like other court ladies from other dynasties, what do you think?”

Wan Yutong's face turned red, "Mulan, you said that so suddenly, I'm in a mess!"

Hua Mulan also knew that it was impossible for Wan Yutong to make a decision now, and she had to give her some time to think about it, so she said, "Well, I know it's a bit hasty for you to make a sudden decision, think about it. I really mean it. , I definitely didn’t mean to test you. You also know that I, Hua Mulan, have one thing to say and another to say something. I don’t play tricks! Brother Junsheng owes you your affection, and I feel guilty all the time, but he has to take my feelings into account , I think this matter can't have the best of both worlds. To be honest, which woman doesn't want her sweetheart to treat her wholeheartedly? I naturally think so in my heart, but the reality makes us all have to give in. If the situation in the palace has been like this

If this continues, those ministers will put more and more pressure on Brother Junsheng, and it will be detrimental to the country if the monarch and ministers are at odds! "

"My mind is a little confused, you guys should go back first, I want to be quiet!" Wan Yutong started to chase people away.

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan had no choice but to take their children and leave first.

On the way, Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but said, "Why don't you discuss it with me first?"

Hua Mulan sighed: "Brother Junsheng, I know that you are under a lot of pressure. Every time the ministers in court force you to accept another concubine, you refuse. I know you are concerned about my feelings. Okay, I also know that you want to make the palace more stable, if there are too many women, there will be conflicts and jealousy, but you can't always reject the suggestions of the ministers, as time goes by, the monarchs and ministers will inevitably confront each other!"

"Besides, Yutong is not an outsider, and she is not the kind of woman who will be jealous. It is better to marry her into the palace than to marry other women. You can't always care about my feelings, you have to think about the future of the country!"

Zhao Junsheng also knew the thoughts of those ministers. Some ministers wanted to marry their daughters or nieces to her in order to obtain the status and rights of relatives. In this way, the power structure of the court would be reshuffled; Some people really care about the overall situation. They are worried about the harem meddling in politics. After all, Hua Mulan is the only woman in the palace now.

Some people are acting out of selfishness, while others are acting out of public interest. Zhao Junsheng is very clear in his heart, but he hasn't considered it yet.

Zhao Junsheng said: "I know what you said, but things are not that simple. If there is one, there are two. Today I married Miss Wan into the palace, and tomorrow a minister will suggest that I marry so-and-so's daughter!"

my wife is mulan

Chapter 688 Transformed into a Charity Ambassador

Hua Mulan scoffed at Zhao Junsheng's thoughts, "It sounds good, if those ministers are desperate to marry their daughters to you, you will wake up laughing from your dreams!"

"Hey, hey, how do you say that? You will tell me all the good things!"

Zhao Junsheng didn't argue with Hua Mulan either, but bickering is still okay.

As soon as Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan returned to the palace, they were immediately blocked by Cui Hao and Gao Yun.

"The ministers are waiting to see the king!" All the people bowed and saluted together.

Zhao Junsheng took a look, "Hey, why do you have such important affairs so neatly?"

Gao Yun stood up and said, "Your Majesty, just now you asked Shen Hui to draft a secret decree, but you did not issue it through the Central Province. The old minister thought this was quite inappropriate! The purpose of setting up Shangtai was to formulate decrees and edicts. The establishment of the Central Province is to promulgate edicts and implement government orders through the Central Province, and now the king himself breaks the rules. If things go on like this, won’t Shangtai and the Central Province gradually become useless?”

Of course Zhao Junsheng knew that what he did was against the rules, but if everything was done in accordance with the rules, many things would not be done, and even important important events would be delayed, and the ministers certainly hope that the king will strictly abide by the rules. , That is to take away the power of these ministers.

This is the almost irreconcilable contradiction between the monarch and his subjects. Any monarch will involuntarily want to concentrate all the power on himself, but the ministers are of course unwilling. If the king has the final say on everything, it must be If it is detrimental to the country, the king is also a human being, and he will make mistakes, and the consequences of the king's mistakes are extremely serious.

Zhao Junsheng said to the ministers: "Shen Hui did this on purpose. According to the information collected by the black guards, Li Shun is contacting various princes, and has even sent people to Jiankang to have an audience with the emperor of the Southern Dynasty. The Chinese court must have an ulterior purpose, and I am worried that they will join forces to deal with our country. If they succeed, our country will face unprecedented troubles and crises, so we must find a way to destroy their purpose! "

"I sent a secret decree to Pang, the governor of Xiangzhou, to let him cross the river to Luoyang to meet his family members, and try to persuade them to submit to our country, thus destroying their purpose. If the edict is issued through the Central Province, it will definitely attract the attention of the world. Focus, how can you keep secrets? So some edicts cannot be formulated by Shangtai, let alone promulgated by the Central Province. As the saying goes, rules are alive, people are alive, and they must be used flexibly! I will go to Shangtai to reissue the official edict after the incident Order for record, and Shang Province will also send it for record!"

Zhao Junsheng's ability to explain so much gave all the ministers a step down, and everyone knew that this matter could only be done in moderation, so the flags died down, and one by one pleaded guilty and said goodbye.

When these ministers left, Hua Mulan's face was very ugly, "These ministers are really full, and they have to come to Xingshi to inquire about this kind of thing. I think you are too lenient to them, my husband, so they will Put your nose on your face like this!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled indifferently: "You can't say that, each has its own responsibilities, and some of the things you and I do in this position may be right for us, but they are wrong for them! It's just a question The angle of view and the starting point are just different, why do you think you are right, and why do you think they are wrong? It will take a while to know whether you are right or wrong!"

"It's not necessarily a bad thing for a minister to dare to come out against the king. Would you be happy if all the ministers were submissives and flatterers?"

Hua Mulan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "What you said seems to make sense, but with so many of them, who can stand it?"

Zhao Junsheng took Hua Mulan's hand and said, "Although speaking up and admonishing us makes us look bad, it is actually a good thing. If these people play tricks, we will have a headache! And these people are not all Wearing a pair of trousers, it’s just that this matter has come together now, so they came together! Besides, not everyone in the court thinks that I did something wrong in this matter, and there must be other ministers who think that I did it wrong. That's right. Just watch, tomorrow's court meeting will definitely be very lively!"
