Ancient women awaken: loving yourself is the way to go

Prince Yun put down the chess piece in his hand and said, "Father, you will live a long life and have plenty of time to train the Crown Prince. I dare not have any other ideas."

"The prince has the blood of the Chen family in his body. I cannot give the throne to him. I heard that the prince's performance these days is all due to your assistance. I see your ability, so don't refuse."

Prince Yun answered without a single mistake: "Everything is up to the emperor, father. Now I just want to go fishing and enjoy the flowers with the princess, and be free and easy."

The emperor frowned. He originally wanted to let Prince Yun deal with the prince and weaken the power of the two, but Prince Yun did not accept it.

"You are a prince, how can you waste your time on love affairs? And Princess Yun..." The emperor was silent for a moment, as if he had just made up his mind and said, "I have done something wrong, I wonder if Yun'er can forgive me?"

Prince Yun said firmly, "Father will not do anything wrong."

The emperor was choked, but he continued, "In fact, I was poisoned by a love poison, and I couldn't control myself when the poison took effect. One time, Princess Yun came to see me, and I mistook her for a palace maid...

Yun'er, this is my fault. If you divorce Princess Yun, I will take her as my concubine and grant you another princess, okay?"

Prince Yun widened his eyes, as if he was extremely shocked: "Is what father said true?"

The emperor's lips curled up in an imperceptible arc, and he said that it was impossible for a man to tolerate a woman's uncleanness.

"I can actually say that someone else insulted Princess Yun. After thinking about it, I decided to tell you the truth. This is my mistake. I am willing to repent. Yun'er, you can choose any lady in the capital. I will grant you a marriage."

He spoke sincerely, but he didn't expect a smile to appear on Prince Yun's face.

Prince Yun said with a look of joy: "Father, does that mean that I can touch the women you have touched? How exciting!

Father, I don’t want to divorce you. The princess actually brought me such a big surprise. I am so happy!”

The emperor felt as if he had swallowed a fly, with a look on his face that said: This guy is stupid!

He was speechless for a long time, listening to Prince Yun muttering to himself, "No wonder the princess didn't want to consummate the marriage, it turns out she was afraid that I would despise her, my baby, it's too late!"

"Father, I want to go back home and kiss the princess. Tell her that she is always unique and I will love her dearly."

The emperor's hands were shaking, he was really angry.

Can his foolproof plan of sowing discord also improve the relationship between Prince Yun and his wife?

At this time, Eunuch Xu knocked on the palace door, "Your Majesty, Princess Yun wants to see you."

"Let her in." For the first time, the emperor felt that Princess Yun was quite pleasing to the eye.

When Shen Xingxi returned to Prince Yun's Mansion and heard that Prince Yun was called into the palace, she immediately came to the palace as well.

She stepped into the imperial study, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to allow women to study in the Imperial Academy."

The emperor subconsciously retorted: "How can this be so? Princess Yun, don't you know that boys and girls should not sit at the same table after the age of seven?"

Shen Xingxi remained calm and said, "Then please ask the emperor to set up a women's college and order that women of the fourth rank and above must enroll, and the rest of the women can enroll voluntarily. The emperor will not open the imperial examination but be unwilling to provide a place for women to study, right?"

The emperor's face was gloomy. "Princess Yun, who taught you the rules? Prince Yun, Princess Yun openly discussed state affairs, and you didn't do anything about it?"

Prince Yun pretended to be dumb, "But I think what the princess said makes sense! Since women can take the imperial examinations, it is imperative to establish a girls' school."

Shen Xingxi, however, was not so good-tempered. He punched the table and said, "Your Majesty, please don't make me angry! I want to see the imperial edict now!"

"How dare you threaten me!" The emperor was so angry that his eyes widened. He was also worried about what would happen if Princess Yun got angry, so he looked at Prince Yun and said, "Prince Yun, did you instigate Princess Yun to disrespect me?"

Prince Yun glanced at the princess, a hint of smile flashed in his eyes, "Ah? Father, what did you say? I am still immersed in the joy just now, can you say it again?"

The emperor's words seemed to jump out from between his teeth: "It was you who taught Princess Yun to disrespect me?"

"Ah? Father wants me to toast you? Aren't we talking about the Women's College? Why is it a toast?" Prince Yun used the telepathic skill that the princess taught him.

The emperor was so angry that he pounded the table, but he almost cried in pain. He couldn't help but look at Princess Yun's hand. Didn't it hurt to pound the table so hard just now?

Shen Xingxi pounded the table again, "Your Majesty, just tell me if you want to make me angry or not!"

Without waiting for the emperor's reply, [System, summon the burning dragon bed.]

Wisps of black smoke drifted out from the side room of the imperial study. Prince Yun picked up a basin of water beside him, rushed into the side room and put out the flames.

He muttered to himself in confusion, "Why did it catch fire out of nowhere? Father, you must be careful next time."

The emperor was shocked and frightened. If he was in bed, the consequences would be self-evident.

Glancing at Princess Yun with fear, he said in a deep voice, "I need to discuss this matter with the ministers before deciding on it. Princess Yun, please don't be anxious..."

"Your Majesty." Shen Xingxi interrupted the emperor, "The Prime Minister proposed the women's imperial examination, so he would not disagree with the establishment of a women's college. Moreover, only when the learning conditions are improved can we better appoint people based on their talents.

The Women's Academy will teach martial arts, and I believe the General would like to see many women practice martial arts like his daughter. I think you can directly issue an order."

[System, summon ten broken lanterns.]

As Shen Xingxi finished speaking, all the lamps in the house suddenly fell to the ground. The scene was quite strange.

Prince Yun's eyes flickered, and he walked up to the princess and whispered softly, "Princess, this is so scary."

Shen Xingxi curled her lips and took King Yun into her arms, "Don't be afraid, no one can bully you when I'm here."

The emperor finally wrote the imperial edict and asked Eunuch Xu to read it out.

His eyes were complicated, "Princess Yun, aren't you afraid of the consequences of angering me?"

Shen Xingxi remained calm and said, "Your Majesty, the worst outcome is death. I am never afraid of death, I am only afraid of not dying in a blazing manner!

I have no intention of being your enemy, but I also hope you will behave yourself and not provoke me."

The emperor closed his eyes and said, "Prince Yun, please stay. You may leave."

Shen Xingxi chuckled: "I hope the emperor won't bully Prince Yun, I will be angry!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, making the emperor very angry again.

The emperor doesn’t dare to offend Shen Xingxi, but does he dare not offend Prince Yun?

"Prince Yun, since you like the people I have slept with, I will satisfy you. You can take anyone you like from the harem below the nobles back to the palace. I also promise you that the day Princess Yun dies is the day you will be crowned the crown prince!"

He took out a military token and said, "As long as you are willing to lead two people into the mansion, this military token will be given to you."
