After being expelled from the mansion, I changed the dynasty by writing novels.

Chapter 84 is a short story that's too stimulating; I'm afraid the ancients wouldn't

It is unknown whether the emperor himself was behind the scenes in getting her into the emperor's presence.

Because the emperor was protecting her, they had even less chance to make a move.

What troubled Ye Yuwu the most was that she hadn't offended the Censor-in-Chief, so why were they making such a big fuss about getting rid of her?

Was she blocking their way?

Ye Yuwu let out a breath; for now, this was all she could guess.

Besides these two, the person she was most familiar with was Manager Ma. He would find people behind the scenes to spread rumors, which Ye Yuwu really hadn't expected.

There are also some literati stirring up trouble behind the scenes; they even wrote letters to criticize her before.

As for some other miscellaneous people, Ye Yuwu didn't know them very well, and there might even be some she couldn't find.

These people may see her as an easy target, but that doesn't mean she won't fight back!

Looking at the papers she had paid someone to investigate, she already had an idea in mind.

Let's do them one by one!

Thinking this, she sat down at the wooden table. She originally planned to continue writing the story she hadn't finished in prison, but looking at the neatly arranged papers in front of her, she thought for a moment and took out some new paper.

Recalling her experiences in the imperial court these past few days, she quickly came up with an idea: she would start by writing two short and medium-length stories.

She had it all figured out: the Censor-in-Chief and the Hanlin Academician weren't exactly on good terms, were they?! Since that's the case… hehehe, don't blame her!

And aren't these men against women holding official positions? It's time to break their defenses.

Ye Yuwu harbored a surge of anger, which she channeled through the ink and brush in her hand!

She finished writing her first short story in just two days, and couldn't resist having the editors proofread it.

Zhang Rouyan was the first to receive the manuscript, and her eyes lit up instantly when she saw the background story.

After reading the contents, she was even more shocked. She felt that this was wrong, but she just couldn't help but keep reading!

While reading the storybook, Zhang Rouyan secretly glanced at the beautiful Ye Yuwu. She felt that she had a living example right in front of her, so how could she think something was wrong?!

After all, as the story goes, love knows no gender! She wholeheartedly agrees with that.

However, there are some things she still needs to say.

"Manager Ye, won't this get us scolded? Can anyone accept this? This is too, too..." Forgive her for not knowing how to express the shock she was receiving; her heart was still pounding.

Ye Yuwu waved her hand dismissively, "Haven't I been scolded enough?! Besides, there's no rule in the laws of Jin Dynasty that says I can't write it?!" Moreover, Jin Dynasty is quite lenient on this matter.

Zhang Rouyan blushed and said, "The book is fine; it can be published anytime."

"Publish it as soon as possible." Ye Yuwu stretched and planned to go back to write another book.

As soon as Ye Yuwu left, two little girls surrounded her. "Sister Rouyan, what kind of storybook was it? Why were you stuttering when you were talking to Manager Ye? And why is your face so red now? Could it be that Yan..."

Zhang Rouyan covered the little girl's mouth speechlessly, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Don't talk nonsense, I was just excited!"

Before she could finish speaking, the two girls snatched the book from her hand and read it.

Sure enough, after a short while, the two girls opened their mouths wide, even more excited than she was.

Zhang Rouyan shook her head helplessly. Sure enough, Manager Ye had polished the mirror, otherwise how could she have suddenly had the inspiration to write such a story?!

That must be it!

Half a month has passed since the decree on female officials was issued, and the Censor-in-Chief has been trying to persuade the emperor for half a month, but the emperor just won't budge. He knows there is no room for maneuver in this matter, so he stops trying to persuade him. He only regrets that he didn't kill the woman before she was arrested and imprisoned.

After the morning court session that day, the Imperial Censor was about to leave with his colleagues, but for some reason, they all walked very fast.

They were either walking in front or lagging behind him. He had intended to stop and wait for his colleagues behind him, but they ran past him quickly when he stopped to wait.

He was treated as some kind of monstrous flood.

Just then, the Hanlin Academician walked past him from behind, and he was about to go up and exchange pleasantries, and ask what was going on.

His relationship with the Hanlin Academician was always very good. They shared similar political views, enjoyed music and theory, and were considered close friends. Sometimes the two would get together to drink and chat.

But just as he was about to greet him, he brushed past him as if he didn't see him at all.

The other ministers, who were not far away, had their eyes practically glued to the conversation between the Censor-in-Chief and the Hanlin Academician, eager to find out what they were saying, looking quite gossipy.

But seeing that the Hanlin Academy scholar didn't even glance at the Censor-in-Chief, they instantly felt that there was no show to watch and it was extremely boring.

The Imperial Censor was surprised that the Hanlin Academician's attitude had changed. Moreover, he could also sense the onlookers' gazes, even though he tried to hide it well. It was too obvious with so many eyes watching.

The Imperial Censor was so angry that he turned and left on the spot.

Unexpectedly, upon returning to the mansion, he also felt that gaze. His wife was sobbing in the room, and upon seeing him return, she rushed forward and scratched him with her fingernails without regard for anything else.

Suddenly, his wife started scratching him all over. The Imperial Censor didn't react at first and was scratched several times before he finally realized what was wrong and roared, "What's wrong with you?!"

The woman was violently pushed to the ground. Helpless, she lay there, refusing to get up, crying and pointing at the Imperial Censor, lamenting her miserable fate.

"What on earth happened?!" The Imperial Censor couldn't stand the woman's crying and sobbing. In addition, he vividly remembered being ostracized and gossiped about after the morning court session. He couldn't control his anger any longer.

"You still dare to ask what happened?! It's all over the place, you and the Hanlin Academician..." Before she could finish speaking, she covered her sleeve and burst into tears again.

"I knew you'd been going out every day claiming to be handling official business, but you always came back looking drunk! Sometimes you wouldn't even come home and would stay out overnight. What was that all about? You even lied to me and said you were drunk and stayed at the Hanlin Academician's residence! Aren't you afraid that what you've been doing will be discovered one day?"

The Imperial Censor was startled, thinking that his secret had been discovered, and suddenly he couldn't vent his anger.

"Everyone outside knows?"

"How could we not know? Your relationship with the Hanlin Academician is so obvious, how could it not be known?!"

"A Hanlin Academician?!" He was startled again, only now realizing something was amiss, but he hadn't fully grasped the meaning behind the woman's words.

He explained impatiently, "When I discuss government affairs with the Hanlin Academician, it is inevitable that I have to socialize. It is not normal for women to accompany me. I only play around with those courtesans. I will not bring them into the mansion, much less threaten your position as the principal wife."

He was annoyed that his long-hidden mask of a virtuous gentleman had been torn off so easily, and he didn't care at all about his wife's feelings.

"What do you mean?" Hearing the Imperial Censor's words, the woman reacted faster than him and immediately understood the whole story. "I was wondering why you were so cold to me and stopped going to the inner courtyard. I thought you were sharing a romantic relationship with the Hanlin Academician, just like everyone else said. I never imagined you were out there with the Hanlin Academician, playing around with brothels!"
