Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

Lin Xingzhi was well-known for his power, and before he even arrived, he had already dismantled the power that had existed in Hejian Prefecture for many years from within.

It was unclear whether the two sides were afraid of Lin Xingzhi or afraid of the imperial court's rebellion. Not only did they not have the intention to unite against the outside world, they also tried to trip each other up.

system:……

"Isn't this giving others an opportunity to take advantage?" The vested interest groups are truly disunited.

Shen Yao sneered, "Vested interests, they only care about their own little piece of land, what's wrong with taking the opportunity to eliminate dissidents?"

They can even get more benefits by doing so, which they would love to do.

Turning her head to look out the window at the cultural landscape of Hejian Prefecture, which was larger and more prosperous than Yuanshui City, Shen Yao felt it necessary to explain to the system the cold-blooded cruelty of the upper class people. Sometimes, no external action was needed, they could collapse the pit themselves.

The system was amazed and said that if this was really the case, it would save Lin Xingzhi trouble and allow him to achieve his goal easily.

"Of course, just wait, someone will come to you."

After Shen Yao finished speaking, she closed her eyes, sat quietly in the car, and watched the team below slowly enter the city.

This time they were still staying in an official post station, which was much larger than the one in Yuanshui City. There were even court officials who had not had time to leave.

Lin Xingzhi is Prince Jing, the emperor's adoptive brother, and a person who can decide their future official careers with just one word.

No matter what he thought in his heart, he was respectful to Lin Xingzhi on the surface.

Shen Yao got off the car and looked up to see a group of court officials standing at the entrance of the post station to greet them. Many of them were middle-aged men with well-groomed beards, who were flattering Lin Xingzhi in a fawning and obsequious manner.

Lin Xingzhi was very impatient with this kind of social activities, but he had no choice but to go along with it because he was in the situation.

They talked about Yuanshui City with smiles on their faces, and then mentioned the situation in Hejian Prefecture City. Finally, at the repeated invitation of the officials of Hejian Prefecture, Lin Xingzhi agreed to attend the welcoming banquet specially prepared for him and stay in Hejian Prefecture for a while.

"Oh, these old foxes, they never leave any grounds for speaking," just like those old foxes in the court.

Before going to bed at night, Lin Xingzhi couldn't help but complain to Shen Yao.

"It's hard to travel, they are afraid," otherwise why would they pretend to be so hypocritical.

Lin Qinghuai snorted, "Although they are afraid, they are also very greedy." The emperor's life is really not easy as he has to keep testing and groping and act on the bottom line.

Fortunately, due to his poor health, he was excluded from the line of heirs early on, otherwise even a strong body would not be able to withstand facing these ministers and officials every day.

Shen Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing. She suddenly felt that what Lin Xingzhi said was right. Although the emperor was above everyone else and had tremendous power, it was extremely difficult to hold on to this position.

No wonder so many emperors like to be incompetent. Even if they work hard to govern the country when they are young, they will still become incompetent and lawless when they are old, indulge in pleasure and lust, and even seek immortality.

The price of being a wise ruler is really too high. You have to get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs. You have to engage in intrigues with the former and harems all day long without any rest, and there is no end in sight.

Anyone who encounters such a day will go crazy. Otherwise, why are there so few kings who have achieved something since ancient times? Isn't it because it is too difficult to achieve?

"Yao Niang"

Lin Xingzhi raised his hand and embraced the beauty in front of him, his voice low and gentle.

Shen Yao smiled and hugged him, raising her hand to pat his back.

At this moment, silence is better than words. Let all kinds of emotions flow, like smoke and fog, wrapping them up and lingering.

…………

There were shouts and yells, and the streets were filled with noisy crowds on both sides.

After staying there for three days, Shen Yao felt really bored, so she took her three children out of the post station and went to Hejian Prefecture for a trip.

Standing by the window on the third floor of the teahouse, I looked up and took in half of Hejian Prefecture.

Lin Shengjing's chubby body was held by the servants, but his pair of grape-shaped eyes were staring out the window.

"Cat Cat"

"Rat rat"

"Fox Raccoon"

"..."

Every once in a while, Lin Shengjing would recite his favorite reduplication, and no matter how Shen Yao tried to correct him, he just couldn't change.

Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue were not interested in the beautiful scenery outside the window at all. They were running and playing around the third floor which was reserved by Shen Yao.

Laughing and playing around

The three children each have their own things to do. Although the scene seems chaotic, it still maintains a sense of order and stability. It is what we call order in chaos.

"Madam, a guest downstairs brought some cakes and drinks, saying they didn't dare to disturb you, so they gave them to you as an apology."

A servant stopped the waiter who was carrying the tray and walked up to Shen Yao to report.

Shen Yao let out a soft "oh" when she heard this, and smiled with a rather playful expression, "I didn't dare to disturb you, but I still had to offer an apology. How interesting."

Was she really afraid to disturb him or was she deliberately doing so? Her identity was no secret in Hejian Prefecture, and there were even several spies following her around.

Who is so courageous as to walk up to her and act so pretentiously?

She waved her hand and asked the servant to leave the things behind. She then went to ask the waiter who the person was sending them to. "I, the princess, can also go back and say a few good words."

The reason he wanted to talk to her so much was because of Lin Xingzhi who was behind him, right?

The servant nodded in agreement, turned around and left.

"Host, why are you going through so much trouble? I can help you."

The system has been watching the gossips in Hejian Prefecture these days and knows a lot about the wealthy families in the east of the city.

Well

Based on its limited experience, the person who could do such a thing must be some smart person who has been spoiled by his family and has no idea of ​​the immensity of the world. He offends others and feels happy about it.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao praised the system for its cleverness. It seemed that all the gossip she had heard was not in vain. No normal person would do such a thoughtless thing.

Sure enough, not long after, the servant came back again, whispered a few words into Shen Yao's ear, and then left.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows while shaking the handkerchief in her hand, and whispered to the young master of the Hu family.

Tut tut

It seems that the head of the Hu family is having a headache, as his eldest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady.

This young master of the Hu family is not only the darling of the Hu family, but his biological mother is also the young wife that the head of the Hu family married into the family. They are almost twenty years apart in age.

Hey

'A hero cannot resist the temptation of beauty'

'Beauty's fragrance, hero's tomb'

Shen Yao and the system each sighed twice, not because they were really expressing any emotion, but because they were clearly gloating over Lao Deng's misfortune, for making him disrespect his elders and covet beauty. Hahahaha, it was retribution!

Isn’t it retribution?

Hu Dan returned to the Hu Mansion with his lackeys, and was about to ask for credit from his father, but he was unexpectedly greeted with his father's loving stick, who really wanted to beat him up and no one could stop him.

Suddenly, the whole Hu Mansion was filled with ghosts crying and wolves howling. The female family members lowered their heads and wiped their tears and sobbed. The crying made the head of the Hu family turn pale and curse the evil creature!

"Master, you are tearing out my heart. Dan'er did this for you and the Hu family. Who instigated you? What did Dan'er do wrong this time?"

It’s just some pastries and drinks sent to Princess Jing, they’re quite expensive!

The head of the Hu family:...

The head of the Hu family looked at the face that was still beautiful and charming despite crying, and regretted his stupidity back then.

It's all my fault!

I clearly know that this woman only has a pretty face, is short-sighted and has no brains, so how could I be so bewildered by her and do anything for her?

In the distance, Hu Dan was still wailing with his mouth wide open. After all, he had been beaten countless times since he was a child, and he knew when pretending was most effective.

Just like now, the old man couldn't bear to see his mother cry, and he could avoid being beaten by just using his voice.

Sure enough, Master Hu waved his hand listlessly and allowed himself to be supported by the housekeeper as he returned to the study.

It was no use pursuing Hu Dan anymore. After all, he had already offended Princess Jing, and other families had also suffered from the trouble caused by the idiot. What he had to do now was to deal with the aftermath and minimize the harm.

"Tsk, it's good to have a face. The old man was so angry but he didn't take action. I'm afraid we brothers won't be able to see the day when the family rules are rectified."

"Is it useful to say all this? Let's think about how much benefit we brothers can get without being implicated if the Hu family goes bankrupt."

When the head of the Hu family was young, he had many romantic affairs. There were five legitimate sons born to different wives in his family, not to mention some illegitimate sons born to concubines. The entire Hu family was an endless chaos.

When the head of the Hu family was around, he could suppress these problems. Once he lost his ability or passed away early, the Hu family was doomed to fall apart.

The system saw the hustle and bustle of the Hu family, and told it to the host at night.

Shen Yao knew that if this matter were exposed, it would definitely cause considerable conflict.

On the surface, it was the Hu family's internal struggle for power and the head of the Hu family was not well-disciplined, which led to the family's chaos. In fact, the root of the problem lies elsewhere. The status of the Hu family in Hejian Prefecture is equivalent to the symbol of the Qi family to Yuanshui City.

Now that the Qi family has fallen, the aristocratic families in Hejian Prefecture have seen hope. As for the Hu family...should they also give up their power and let others share the benefits?

"Host, are you saying that the other families inside are also adding fuel to the fire?"

The system felt that if this was really the case, the Hu family would be in big trouble.

It seems that apart from the head of the Hu family, there are few people who can take on the responsibility and fight. The wealth accumulated by the Hu family for so many years will not suddenly become someone else's.

'The downfall of any aristocratic family is often accompanied by the participation of other aristocratic families.

After all, money is a powerful force. The Hu family is the richest family in Hejian Prefecture. Every year, the taxes alone can feed and clothe the people of Hejian Prefecture. Shen Yao's words bewitched the system. Her voice was ethereal, but every word was engraved on her heart. "Such a large amount of wealth that can be seen and touched, how could you not be tempted?"

System: ...Of course not

Even the system, a heartless artificial intelligence, can't help but want a piece of the pie, let alone those who are immersed in the seven emotions and six desires.

"Host, what do you think the Hu family should do to break the impasse and save themselves?"

The system spoke cautiously, yet with a hint of curiosity.

After all, in its eyes, its host is omnipotent.

What seems like a disaster to the Hu family is just a small matter to the host. There must be a way to resolve it.

Shen Yao smiled slightly and said lightly, "Cooperate with the court," and give half of the family property. Not only can this deadlock be broken, but it can also allow the Hu family to survive in Hejian City for a long time.

System: ...I’m afraid I can’t bear to do that.

"That's impossible! Let's think of another way."

Hu Family Study

Except for the head of the Hu family who made the suggestion, everyone else rejected it sternly.

How could one give away one's wealth? Even to the imperial court, it's forbidden. Could it be that such a great nation doesn't have laws? Robbery is nothing but the work of a robber!

The head of the Hu family:...

I can’t carry it, I really can’t carry it!

Otherwise, why is it that at his age, he is reluctant to give up power, but also reluctant to close his eyes? First, look at the people in his family. What will happen to the Hu family if he is gone? It would be a shame to the ancestors of the Hu family!

"What other solution is there? You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your own child.

Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? Counting on the Zhang, Zhou, Ning, and Wang families? Humph! "

Even more naive than this old immortal. It is true that the decline of the noble families begins with their useless descendants.

The Hu family has also reached this stage. No matter how powerful the head of the Hu family is, he can no longer save the Hu family from its downward trend.

"Master, you can't say that. How can the status of our Hu family in Hejian Prefecture be compared to those small families and businesses?"

"Yeah, King Zhang Zhouning? What a joke!"

The head of the Hu family was almost amused by this group of idiots who had no real ability but were so self-righteous. It turned out that when people are speechless, they don't want to say anything.

He angrily cursed, "Get out!"

The head of the Hu family knocked on the table and asked the butler waiting at the door to drive the group of people away.

It's an eyesore!

"master"

The housekeeper has served the Hu family master for decades and understands the Hu family master's psychology best.

Knowing that this was a sign of the master's irritability, the butler said nothing and just stood there motionless.

After a while, the head of the Hu family spoke, "Do you know where Prince Jing has been recently?"

The housekeeper replied, "Prince Jing is usually at the government office, and occasionally stays at the post station to meet with officials."

"Prepare generous gifts. The Hu family was disrespectful first and should apologize." No one else has the right to interfere with what the head of the Hu family has decided.

Perhaps it was because there were too many useless people in the Hu family, so the head of the Hu family had to keep fighting to survive.

Half of your family assets may be damaged, but you will not lose everything.

If the green hills are left, there is no need to worry about no firewood.

The head of the Hu family came in person with generous gifts to ask for an audience with King Jing, and put himself in a very humble manner.

When Lin Xingzhi received the news, an official from Hejian Prefecture had just left.

Compared with the problems in Yuanshui City, the problems in Hejian Prefecture are extremely complicated, and it is difficult to find a gap.

Originally, Lin Xingzhi was thinking that if it really didn't work out, he would just try to make another move with the prefect here. As the saying goes, the trick doesn't have to be new, as long as it's useful.

Unexpectedly, what Yao Niang said a few days ago gave him an inspiration. It turned out that the Hu family had such a big problem.

Lin Xingzhi waved his hand and asked his subordinates to invite the head of the Hu family in. There was a smile on the corner of his lips, as if a young man from a noble family who was devoted to mountains, rivers, poetry and books was not worthy of the King Jing who was so powerful in the court.

The head of the Hu family was already very old, with his hair and beard neatly groomed. He greeted Lin Xingzhi calmly.

Lin Xingzhi smiled and asked the head of the Hu family to sit down, and asked about the other party's purpose of coming even though he knew the answer.

The head of the Hu family stood up and sighed, saying with a sad face, "My son has behaved badly, please forgive me, Your Highness."
