Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

Lin Shengjing was not in the palace, but in the Taoist temple.

As soon as Shen Yao and Lin Xingzhi entered the palace, they sent a message to the Taoist temple in the capital, and they would take Lin Shengjing back as soon as everything was settled here.

Brothers Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue happily returned to their own courtyard, and did not forget to fight for the right to live in the palace with the five-colored stone.

Five-colored Stone: ...

"You guys stop arguing, I live alone," he would not accompany the child. He had almost drained the child's energy from taking care of the child all the way. If he didn't seize the time to take a good look around this prosperous capital now that he was in the capital, wouldn't his trip be in vain?

Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue's eyes welled up with tears when they heard this. The two brothers had perfectly inherited the looks of Shen Yao and Lin Xingzhi. To say that they had outstanding looks was an understatement. In fact, they were not much worse than real immortals (practitioners in the world of cultivation).

The Five-Colored Stone inevitably softened its heart, but it still did not agree to live with the two children. It only said that it would take time to spend more time with them. Besides, the two children were not really free, and Huangjue Temple was still waiting for them.

"Amitabha, I am leaving here in compliance with the abbot's order. I must return to Huangjue Temple to report."

But after a short rest, Master Yuankong found Lin Xingzhi and Shen Yao and said goodbye.

Lin Xingzhi tried to persuade them to stay as usual. After all, Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue were staying in the palace, and their daily practice needed guidance.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will be back soon. Besides, the two young masters have reached the age requirement to enter the temple." Even if he could not come back, the two young masters could go directly to Huangjue Temple to practice.

If that happens, the master used for daily teaching will be replaced by the abbot of Huangjue Temple, which will be more beneficial to the two young masters.

That being said, Lin Xingzhi and Shen Yao would still feel a little apprehensive about sending their child to Huangjue Temple where they were unfamiliar with the place.

On the surface, they just nodded and said "um" and "ah" to get by. After Master Yuankong left, the couple gathered together to discuss the matter of Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue in a low voice.

"Things are turbulent right now. After we enter the palace, we will find a chance to send Yan'er and Jue'er there for a while."

Not only Yan'er and Jue'er, but also Jing'er who is staying in the Taoist temple. Seeing that the capital is about to be engulfed in war, the couple still has the energy to cope with it, but what about the three children?

Lin Xingzhi has not forgotten the previous secret letter. The Queen has already extended her hand to them, so it is not impossible that she has no bottom line.

Shen Yao pursed her lips and nodded, "It can only be like this. The capital is in constant turmoil, and the winner between the emperor and the empress has not yet been decided." Although the empress is unlikely to defeat the emperor, who can guarantee it before the matter is settled?

Lin Xingzhi smiled and raised his hand to hold Shen Yao's wrist. The couple then returned to the backyard and handed all the things they brought back to the servants of the palace.

Before dark, a letter came from the palace asking them to rest for a night and then come to the palace to pay their respects.

"Are you all going?"

"The prince and princess are one, so they should all enter the palace."

"Please excuse me, Eunuch Li, to make this trip."

"Your Highness is polite. This is what our family should do."

After watching Eunuch Li leave politely, Lin Xingzhi pondered for a moment and turned back to his room.

Shen Yao was half lying on the couch, leisurely eating the food that the servants had carefully brought her. The thumb-sized pastries were soft and delicate in the mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth.

Although Shen Yao was not very hungry after dinner, she couldn't help but eat more when she saw the delicious food.

Seeing Lin Xingzhi return, Shen Yao smiled and handed him the cakes on the plate. Then, like a beautiful snake, she stood up from the edge of the couch and put her hands on Lin Xingzhi's shoulders. "You don't look happy. Is the situation in the palace not good?"

Lin Xingzhi pinched his chin and shook his head, "Eunuch Li, come and deliver the decree. Tomorrow morning, my husband and I will enter the palace together."

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows and said, "You go to see the emperor, and I go to Fengyi Palace?"

There is a high probability that he will need to face the queen. Although they dislike each other, they have to maintain their personalities due to their status.

"Yao Niang, how about I go to the palace tomorrow to report your illness on your behalf, Queen..." Lin Xingzhi couldn't help but frowning, thinking that if the Queen went crazy, no one knew what she would do. If it was bad for Yao Niang, it would be difficult to get justice.

"No need." Doing so would only offend the emperor. She was not sure whether the emperor or the empress wanted her to go to Fengyi Palace.

Raising her hand, she grasped Lin Xingzhi's wrist and squeezed it gently. Shen Yao spoke lightly and playfully, saying that the Queen was not yet completely crazy, and although her situation was not very good, her life was not in danger.

Well

A bit like a punching bag setting?

"Host, this is a gas trap, just like the eldest prince back then."

It’s just that the host is not as miserable as the eldest prince. With such a pair of parents as the emperor and the queen, even the king of heaven would have to suffer a lot.

"Don't be so blunt," Shen Yao felt that the system would hurt her heart and was very good at adding fuel to the fire.

She raised her hand and rubbed her aching forehead. She hadn't been able to sleep all night, and Shen Yao was already a little upset. Adding to that was a system that loved to cause trouble. Now she was the honorable Princess Jing, and smiled.

Closing her eyes, she automatically blocked out the system's nonsense, and her breathing became steady. She fell asleep in a short moment.

system:……

I always feel that the host did it on purpose, using what it said as a lullaby. It's really disrespectful to the system!

The next morning, the couple washed up and took a carriage to the palace.

Unlike the previous two years, they are more confident this time.

Lin Xingzhi was already thinking about what kind of titles to ask for his two children (the Crown Prince didn't want a title), and Shen Yao was also thinking about how to deal with the Queen, and what to do if she deliberately made things difficult for her.

"parking"

A sharp voice sounded outside the carriage. Upon hearing it, Lin Xingzhi and Shen Yao stood up and got out of the car, greeting each other with the eunuchs waiting at the palace gate.

Although these eunuchs are young and unfamiliar, they must have a close relationship with the Grand Eunuch to be able to get such an opportunity.

Smiling, he led Lin Xingzhi and Shen Yao in. The eunuch was very capable and told them everything without Lin Xingzhi even asking.

For example, the emperor hasn't been in a very good mood recently. The former court is in turmoil, and the harem is in chaos...

Lin Xingzhi: ...It seems that these words are not suitable to be said to a prince who has just returned to the capital.

However, this eunuch spoke without concealment or even trying to cover up his mistake. He probably didn't act on his own initiative. There must be someone behind the scenes directing him.

The two separated in front of a palace gate. Lin Xingzhi continued to leave with the eunuch, while Shen Yao was led by the palace maid of Fengyi Palace.

"Princess Jing, please come this way."

"This doesn't seem to be the way to Fengyi Palace?"

"The Queen is in the Imperial Garden."

Well, anyway, the Queen is the master of the Central Palace and the boss of the harem, she has no say in matters of summons.

Shen Yao said no more, but followed the palace maid from Fengyi Palace on the way. She thought that it had only been two years since she last entered the palace, but the changes in the palace maids in Fengyi Palace were really frequent.

I don’t know whether it’s because the queen is difficult to serve or because the Imperial Household Department didn’t train her well enough, but the maids in Fengyi Palace can be said to be a beautiful sight in the entire harem.

Walking along the tree-lined path where flowers were in full bloom, Shen Yao's vision suddenly became clear.

A group of beauties with exquisite makeup, different looks but extraordinary beauty suddenly came into her field of vision.

However, the beauties are not in a good situation at the moment. Some are kneeling and some are crying, while the one sitting in the front is the always high and mighty Queen.

"Princess Jing is here"

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Queen. May your Majesty be blessed, and may all the other Queens be well."

"Princess Jing, please excuse me."

"Greetings, Princess Jing."

"..."

Shen Yao stood up and walked to the queen, and sat down silently at the other's signal.

The scene has been set, the characters are in place, and now it’s time for the Queen to take the stage. Show time!

Shen Yao heard the Queen above her head snort softly, actively provoking everyone present (including herself, the background princess).

It was also at this time that Shen Yao truly understood how crazy the queen was. You know, among those kneeling people there were women from aristocratic families who had already been made concubines.

"A concubine is a concubine, and a noble concubine is also a concubine. As the queen, it is my duty to rule the harem." The queen raised her slender fingers and pointed directly at the concubines who dared to look her in the eye. "Why, are you dissatisfied?"

Concubines: ...

They weren't just dissatisfied in their hearts? They were dissatisfied with every part of their bodies!

Why? !

Such a woman who only cares about her own selfish desires and has no sense of the overall situation can sit on the throne of queen just because of her family background!

Fortunately, God opened his eyes and knew that this woman was not capable of doing anything. Not only did she destroy her only offspring, but she also offended the entire harem without knowing the consequences, and even did not let the previous dynasty go.

snort!

They want to see how long this person can remain tough.

It is obvious that even if the queen will be deposed from the throne tomorrow, she is still the queen at the moment and still has the right to punish these lower-ranking concubines.

Saying "I dare not, I dare not" reluctantly, the concubines could only lower their eyes and listen to the queen's sarcastic words, and try their best to suppress the anger in their hearts.

Shen Yao:......

Thinking that nothing would happen to her, Shen Yao rarely had the interest to watch the Queen's methods. She could only say that they were too rough. There was no one behind her, and she would have to pay it back sooner or later.

"Princess Jing, you've just returned from outside, and I don't know what the current situation is in the capital.

"Just like these concubines before me, most of them were newcomers two years ago and were quite favored by the Emperor. Unfortunately, no matter what they do, they cannot change the rules that concubines should abide by. Just as they constantly complain when facing me, they should just listen to my instructions honestly," the Queen said arrogantly. She turned her head to look at Shen Yao sitting in the chair and said meaningfully, "Rules are rules. I wonder if Princess Jing understands?"

Shen Yao: ...This, what the Queen said, should she understand or not?

"Your Majesty is absolutely right. Once rules are set, they must be followed. No matter who you are, you have your own rules. If you act rashly, it will definitely backfire on you."

Shen Yao smiled and replied with the same words, thinking to herself, you remind me, and I want to remind you too. Although the queen does have power and background that countless women envy, there are some things that should be said and not said. Rules do not only govern those of lower status.

Queen:......

Looking at Shen Yao's ageless face, the Queen suddenly laughed, "You have sharp teeth and a sharp tongue."

She is worthy of being the woman that King Jing likes. She looks just like the annoying King Jing.

"In the harem, I am the rule. Only by following my rules can you survive here," the Queen couldn't help but tap the table with her fingers. "Regardless of whether you believe in me or not, as long as I am the Empress, you must bow down before me."

After all, concubines are common, but the queen is unique.

The queen raised her face and eyebrows slightly, seeming to be a little tired of playing. She stood up, took the arm of the palace maid and was about to leave.

But before leaving, the queen still did not forget to mock Shen Yao a few times, because she was the kind of person who never suffered any loss.

Shen Yao: ...If you don’t suffer the loss, then I will?

"Princess Jing, please stay."

"Wei Zhaoyi"

I wondered who it was, and it turned out to be the cuckoo, which had finally entered the palace.

Shen Yao vaguely remembered that this person's name seemed to be Hui Ning? His promotion speed was quite fast.

"I wonder what Empress Zhaoyi wants to say?" Shen Yao didn't want to stay in the palace any longer, so when she was called, her impatience suddenly increased a lot.

Seeing this, Wei Huining just smiled and mentioned that he admired Princess Jing in his heart. He had never been able to meet her before, but now he finally had the opportunity to communicate with her.

Have a chat?

Shen Yao found it funny. She didn't want to have any communication with the cuckoo. There were so many traces of magic in the palace. If she had a pleasant conversation with an open demon, it would easily attract some people's attention.

With her eyes lowered and a smile on her face, Shen Yao just watched the cuckoo pretending to be nice. It was not until a palace servant came to interrupt her that Shen Yao was able to escape successfully.

"What is this cuckoo doing stopping the host?" the system said, jumping up and down.

"Can't you monitor the entire palace? If you just keep an eye on it yourself, wouldn't you know everything?"

system:……

When walking out of the palace gate, Lin Xingzhi was standing outside the door. Seeing Shen Yao coming, he hurried to greet her.

"Yao Niang"

Shen Yao smiled and comforted the somewhat panicked Lin Xingzhi, and then the two got on the carriage and left.

"How about the Queen? From what the Emperor said, the Queen won't be able to sit on the throne for long."

The emperor's words revealed his intention to depose the queen. Some officials have already written letters to denounce the Jin family. Now the former court and the harem are adding fuel to the fire, and no one knows when it will burn the real empress.

Shen Yao recounted everything that had happened in the palace today. As expected, Lin Xingzhi was furious. He felt that the emperor was still procrastinating as always. With such a queen, why would he hold back? He should get rid of him as soon as possible.

"Let's not talk about these spoiling things. What about the titles of Jue'er and Jing'er?" Yan'er didn't need a title because he was the appointed prince of King Jing.

Lin Xingzhi's attention was indeed diverted. A smile spread across his brows, indicating that he had already proposed several titles for Jue'er and Jing'er. After choosing among them, he finally decided on Lingyu and Changping.

Lingyu: A beautiful person born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, highlighting the owner's intelligence and beauty.

Changping: long-term peace, prosperity and well-being of the country and the people, which expresses the hope for long-term stability in the country and the region.

"The title is nice, and the meaning is good too," Shen Yao leaned on Lin Xingzhi's shoulder, quiet and leisurely.
