Yan Wan is reborn as a legitimate wife: Curing Ruyi's Douyi syndrome

From the time Mianyin could remember, she had always had two fathers. Both fathers doted on Mianyin and Mianzhao, and Mianyin would choose a father with Mianzhao and follow them around like a little shadow.

Mianzhao prefers activity to stillness and enjoys playing with Zhuer, while Mianyin prefers stillness to activity and loves to quietly practice calligraphy and read books with Abo.

During that period, Jingqin was busy dealing with Mongolian affairs and matters in the capital every day, and did not spend much energy on the education of her children. Only Qingyou was taught by Jingqin.

When Jingqin finally had a free moment, Mianyin and Mianzhao had already chosen their respective fathers and were clinging to them every day. Of course, the two sisters, who had inherited Jingqin's ability to be fair, would also switch fathers to cling to each other.

In order for the two sisters, Myeonne and Myeonjo, to play and grow up together, Juer and Abo, who usually keep to themselves, will also get together, but still stand diagonally opposite each other and watch the two sisters.

It wasn't until Hongli threw the two sisters, along with Qingyou, into the Imperial Study that Zhuer and Abo lost the joy of raising children.

Although Jingqin would pick up the two sisters and take them back to the princess's residence in the evening, Zhuer and Abo still felt a little lost after taking care of the children for so long.

Fortunately, Mianyin and Mianzhao are both very sweet and considerate. After returning to the manor, they clung to Zhuer and Abo again.

Royal children are precocious, and Mianyin and Mianzhao were no exception. When they were eight years old, Mianyin and Mianzhao began to ask Jingqin who their father was.

Who exactly is it? In fact, Jingqin didn't know either. Seeing that the two sisters insisted on asking, Jingqin could only tell them the truth that she herself didn't know either.

Mianyin and Mianzhao were dumbfounded. They never expected that even their mother, who was the smartest person in the world, didn't know who their father was. Mianyin and Mianzhao burst into tears.

Zhu'er and Abo rushed over upon hearing the news, each skillfully comforting one of the girls and asking Jingqin why she had made her sisters cry again.

Jingqin felt wronged and said with a laugh, "They heard from their tutor that each child only has one father, and when they came back they asked me who their father was. I said I didn't know, and they cried. I didn't do anything to these two little devils."

Zhu'er was clumsy with words, so upon hearing this, she could only coax, "Mianyin and Mianzhao, don't cry. Father will take you out to eat something delicious."

Aber, however, came up with a mischievous idea and laughed, "A child only has one father, but you are two children, so doesn't that mean you have two fathers?"

An eight-year-old is easy to coax. Hearing this, he stopped crying, looked at Jingqin with a half-understanding expression, and asked, "Mother?"

Jingqin almost applauded Abo, but she suppressed a laugh and calmly said, "That's right."

Unexpectedly, the two sisters returned crying the next day.

Mianzhao: "Father is lying! Mother is lying!"

Mianyin: "Sister Mianle and Brother Mianzhan said they only have one father..."

Jingqin and the other two were helpless; they had forgotten that Jingse's two children were twins, a boy and a girl.

To calm the two sobbing sisters, Jingqin said helplessly, "Mother really doesn't know. Aren't you happy that you have an extra father compared to other children?"

Mianyin and Mianzhao were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, their thoughts completely diverted by Jingqin, and they answered blankly, "Happy..."

Jingqin: "As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. You have one more father than other children, which means one more father who loves you. Isn't that wonderful? Right now, don't you want any other father to love you?"

Mianyin and Mianzhao were confused, and just kept hugging Zhuer and Abo who were comforting them, and replied, "We want both of our fathers!"

Jingqin: "That's right. If you don't want Father and Mother, Father and Mother will be very sad."

Mianyin and Mianzhao hugged Zhuer and Abo, and said firmly, "Don't be sad, Mianyin and Mianzhao want their father and mother."

Zhu'er and Abo laughed, looking at Jingqin who was fooling the child with smiles on their faces.

Qingyou stood beside Jingqin, looking helplessly at his younger sisters who were being completely manipulated by their mother.

When Mianyin and Mianzhao were ten years old, Jingqin successfully seized the throne and became the empress.

Fearing that her efforts would be in vain, Jingqin brought Qingyou, Zhuer, and the two sisters to Changchun Palace for resettlement. Abo, on the other hand, stayed at the princess's residence with her personal guards until Jingqin wiped out Prince Kang's faction before bringing Abo back.

Abo had been living in the back hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a long time. Although his life was no different from that of the princess, Abo was still somewhat uneasy. To be honest, he still wanted to follow Jingqin legitimately.

Fortunately, Jingqin didn't make him worry for too long. Just after the Flower Festival on the fifteenth of February, Jingqin talked to Abo about returning to the manor.

Jingqin: "Abo, I have already spoken with your father and brother. They will come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation tomorrow to discuss matters. You will go back to the mansion with them."

Abo, unaware of what had happened, asked anxiously, "Jing...Your Majesty...has something happened?"

Jingqin smiled, took Abo's hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I can finally marry you. I just need you to go through the audition process again, is that okay?"

Abo was stunned and asked, "Huh? A talent show?"

Jingqin: "Yes, after the selection process, you will be the rightful imperial consort."

Abo's eyes lit up immediately, and he happily threw himself into Jingqin's arms, saying, "I can, I can! Jingqin, I can finally be with you legitimately."

Jingqin hugged Abo and said with a smile, "I promised you, and I will not break my promise. However, after returning to the manor this time, you will have to wait until the imperial concubine selection in a month before you can enter the palace again. It's a good time for you to talk to your father and mother more."

Abo nodded and chatted with Jingqin for a long time.

The next day, Abo left the palace with Akdun and Agui.

With Abai gone, Mianyin and Mianzhao were in an uproar. The two sisters chattered around Jingqin like little birds, asking, "Mother, where's Father Bai? Where did you hide him?"

Jingqin restrained the two sisters, one in each hand, and explained, "Father Bai has gone home. These past few days, Mianyin and Mianzhao have been playing with Father Emperor."

Mianyin and Mianzhao seemed to understand, but nodded reluctantly.

Seeing that the two sisters had stopped arguing, Jingqin asked, "What has the Grand Tutor been teaching you lately? What books have you been reading?"

Mianyin and Mianzhao answered the questions one by one, and then they insisted on going to find Zhuer. Jingqin knew that the two sisters did not want to be tested on their studies, but she still let them go to find Zhuer.

As soon as the two sisters left, Jingqin stared at Qingyou and began to test his homework.

Qingyou, like Zhuer, is not very clever, so Jingqin has to spend time teaching him every day. Since Mianyin and Mianzhao are smarter, Jingqin focuses her attention on Qingyou first.

Two months later, Abo entered the palace as a noble lady. Mianyin and Mianzhao stopped bothering Jingqin to ask when Abo had returned and instead flew to Abo's side like two little birds, chirping away.

The two sisters grew up happily under the protection of Jingqin and others, and each married a princess.

With two imperial consorts, Abo and Zhuer, Jingqin's Eastern Six Palaces had long been abandoned. After Qingyou's marriage, he and his wife moved into Yikun Palace.

Jingse stayed briefly in Changchun Palace. Mianyin and Mianzhao then moved to Xianfu Palace and Chuxiu Palace, respectively. The Eastern Six Palaces were renovated and repurposed.

As Mianyin and Mianzhao grew up, they learned about Jingqin's plans, and both of them worked hard to achieve them.

Perhaps due to genetics, Mianzhao disliked reading. Even with Jingqin's frequent quizzes and guidance, he only engaged in theoretical discussions and never truly grasped the concepts.

Mianyin, however, is quick-witted, loves reading, and also loves to practice. She not only handles Jingqin's tests with ease but also comes up with different solutions by drawing inferences from one instance to another, which greatly surprises Jingqin.

When Mianyin and Mianzhao were thirty years old, Jingqin sent the two to various coastal areas to lift the sea ban and handle matters after the ban was lifted.

After much polite deference from Mianyin and Mianzhao, Jingqin finally made the final decision: Mianzhao would be responsible for Shengjing, Shandong, and Jiangsu, while Mianyin would be responsible for Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong.

Mian Yin was responsible for a complex area, so Hua Nian personally escorted her, with Gao Heng following closely behind. Mian Zhao was responsible for a relatively stable area, so she was escorted by the deputy commander of the Feathered Guard, with Lin Jiang accompanying her.

After the lifting of the maritime ban, various problems arose, especially the invasion of the nearby seas by Japanese pirates. When Mianyin and Mianzhao discovered this, they immediately stopped the sailors from repelling the pirates and submitted a memorial to the emperor, hoping that Jingqin would strengthen the coastal defenses.

Jingqin approved it.

However, a problem arose with Mianzhao. Faced with the new species offered by the foreigners, Mianzhao was not very trusting and had not agreed to let the foreigners buy and sell these things.

While this move prevented foreigners from making exorbitant profits from opium, it also isolated a large number of high-quality grain varieties.

Fortunately, although Mianyin was also skeptical about the new species, she spent some time conducting experiments. She adopted the grain seeds and promptly discovered the harm of opium, which she then reported to Jingqin.

After reading the memorial, Jingqin realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately amended the law, classifying opium smuggling and opium consumption as serious crimes, punishable by exile for minor offenses and beheading for major offenses.

Some arrogant foreigners thought Jingqin wouldn't dare to deal with them, so they openly sold opium. They were caught by the Imperial Guards and beheaded at the execution ground.

Jingqin's severe punishment frightened both Chinese and foreigners, making them afraid to buy or sell opium anymore.

However, when the country of the foreigner who was beheaded learned of this, it believed that Jingqin had offended its national prestige and immediately sent ships to attack the Qing Dynasty.

Although Mianyin personally led the team to victory in this battle, the losses were heavy. Jingqin also realized the shortcomings and personally issued an edict to establish an academy for learning foreign languages ​​and send people to various countries to study.

As time went on, Mianyin's reputation in China rose, and she won the hearts of the people in Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong.

After this incident, Jingqin seriously considered the possibility of Mianyin succeeding to the throne. Mianzhao also discovered her shortcomings and no longer acted superficially, learning to gain true knowledge through practice.

Despite having the ancestral decree, Jingqin did not openly and legitimately establish a crown princess. Instead, she chose an auspicious time and directly announced her abdication, passing the throne to Mianyin.

After that, Jingqin happily moved to the capital with Zhuer, Abo, and the others. They often went out to have fun together, and would occasionally see Fucha Langhua, Jingse, and Yonglian, and arrange to go on trips together.

After the two women went on official business, their children were left with Abo and Zhuer. Even now that the two women have succeeded to the throne and Mianzhao has taken over Jingse's position, their children are often sent to Jingqin.

He claimed, "Your subject is too busy to teach her, and hopes Mother/Father will take extra care." But what could Jingqin and the others do? Of course, they would continue to teach her diligently!

Mianyin naturally ascended to the throne, becoming the second empress of the Qing Dynasty, and the story began a new chapter.
