The host is no longer a human today.

"Husband, I have something to tell you."

Yan Changsui came in with a tray, and Shen Zuixue just put down the book.

"What does Suisui want to say? Why are you so serious?" Shen Zuixue was a little surprised and asked while pulling him to sit down.

Yan Changsui lowered his eyes and looked at the two people's clasped hands. "There is something I want to confess to you."

Shen Zuixue looked at him quietly, her eyes clear, but her heart was already prepared.

Originally, he wanted to pass this world perfectly, but if it really didn't work, he would try again in the next world.

"I... I can't have children anymore." Yan Changsui lowered his head, his voice as thin as a mosquito. After he finished speaking, he waited quietly for Shen Zuixue's reaction.

"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" Shen Zuixue grabbed Yan Changsui's hand and checked it up and down with concern.

"Not now." Yan Changsui didn't care about being nervous and quickly held down Shen Zuixue's hand that was touching him randomly.

"When I was young, my mother, the queen, and my brother were in a very bad situation. At that time, I accidentally ate poisonous soup and lost my fertility... If you mind..."

"I don't mind!" Shen Zuixue said immediately.

I won't let you go either.

Yan Changsui swallowed the last words silently, and lowered his voice, "Do you really not mind? You don't think that I can't give you an heir. If you really want a child..."

"No need, Suisui!" Shen Zuixue quickly grabbed his hand. Although Yan Changsui's face was gentle, he looked as if he felt sorry for him.

But they have been husband and wife for several lifetimes, doesn’t he understand Suisui?

It would be fine if Suisui behaved calmly, but now, I’m afraid he might say something wrong and end up in the dark room again.

Shen Zuixue's face turned red when she thought about the days when she hung out in the palace.

Although the small dark room is pretty good, it’s better not to go in it if you can avoid it.

"I like you. Of course I like you no matter what. You're just a child. I don't really like children. Having you is enough for me."

"Can……"

"Don't say but, Suisui, just believe me." Shen Zuixue pulled the person over and expressed his loyalty seriously.

Shen Zuixue slowly leaned over, and when the tips of their noses were about to touch, Yan Changsui subconsciously closed his eyes.

"I, I believe it."

Shen Zuixue chuckled and pressed the person down, "Sui Sui, whether we can have a child or not will not affect the business between us."

"What's the matter... um~"

The moonlight grew brighter and everything was silent, save for a creaking sound coming from the princess's mansion in the middle of the night.

In this world, Shen Zuixue and Yan Changsui still live together till old age and stay together for their whole lives.

Perhaps it was because Yan Changsui in this life was a twin, and unlike in his previous life, he always liked children.

He and Shen Zuixue accepted many apprentices, and each of them had the opportunity to shine when they grew up.

As the first Minister of Agriculture, Shen Zuixue pioneered the practice of recruiting officials through industry and promoted the employment system in his later years.

Under his leadership, the official selection system was reformed, aristocratic families began to decline, people from poor families had the opportunity to move up, and merchants had the opportunity to enter the court.

During Shen Zuixue's lifetime, he cultivated dozens of crops, truly realizing the people's desire to have enough food. While agriculture was vigorously developing, handicrafts, commerce and other industries began to flourish.

Shen Zuixue became the leader of the pragmatists, and Yan Changsui also held great power in the court.

Yan Changsui helped Yan Changhuai balance the government throughout his life and was a role model for women all over the world. Moreover, because of his leadership, the court began to have the precedent of having women like Shuang'er serve as officials.
