Song Gexing

Chapter 156 Guanyin Maid and Little Mu Guiying
The Song Dynasty's laxity towards civil servants made Zhao Fang angry again, but he still reluctantly agreed to the verdict of the Criminal Court.

Only one Jimo county magistrate bestowed death, and the master made a decisive judgment.

Other officials were dismissed and retained their official status, but those who involved huge amounts of money were exiled. Zeng Gongliang was demoted to Yongzhou as the magistrate.

This made him more determined to change the status quo of emphasizing culture over military affairs as soon as possible. Scholars and officials must be raised, because that is the foundation of cultural inheritance. Raising scholars is to raise the integrity of a nation.

But raising scholars is not about raising high-minded civil servants. That will only raise cultural hooligans and shameless people. The atmosphere of the Song Dynasty has gone astray, and it can be said that it has gone too far.

"Your Highness, it's time to rest. You have been busy these two days until midnight. Your health is critical."

After returning home for several days, Zhao Fang shut himself up in his study and meditated, writing and drawing, worrying his family to the core.Before midnight tonight, Xiao Guanyin came over to persuade him.

Seeing this dignified and beautiful girl, Zhao Fang raised his head and smiled, beckoned her to come closer, picked her up and sat in his arms.

She was so embarrassed that her face turned red and her neck was red, and she begged in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't do it. We shouldn't be private here, otherwise we will be laughed at."

Zhao Fang helplessly scratched her little nose and said, "Where are you thinking? It's just a hug and nothing else. Why don't you hug your wife and take a rest when the husband is tired?"

"Really just a hug?"

Xiao Guanyin asked in a low voice, her shy eyes questioning. Zhao Fang smiled, but he also knew that he was being questioned because he had a criminal record.

"I also want you to take a look at this and help me with the details while I rest my mind."

Of course, Zhao Fang would not let go. He hugged her and leaned back on the chair comfortably, gesturing to her about the materials he had written on the desk.

Xiao Guanyin glanced at it and turned around quickly, pulled away uneasily and said, "No, Your Highness! This is a major matter for the imperial court, and the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

"Silly wife, whoever asked you to work in politics only asked you to give opinions."

"But……"

"Don't worry, my husband knows that you are capable in this area. Among you sisters, the only ones who can help me in this area are you and Sister Xue'er. Look, I'm tired."

Xiao Guanyin hesitated to look at it, but Zhao Fang hugged her and closed his eyes to rest.

She was held in her arms and couldn't run away. There was a pile of materials in front of her eyes. She could only close her eyes and turn her head if she didn't want to look at it.

But the way they closed their eyes was wrong. The couple hugged each other and closed their eyes, which made people think they were doing something. They couldn't sleep here.

If you don't dare to close your eyes and turn your head, it would definitely be even weirder if you don't keep your neck tilted.

Helpless Xiao Guanyin sat for a while and said to herself, "Why don't you take a look, just a little bit."

Finally, she couldn't help but look at it a little bit, but she couldn't stop looking at it anymore. The more she looked at the moon, she was completely immersed in it, and she didn't know that Zhao Fang had already opened his eyes, with his face pressed against the side of her neck, his face full of intoxication. With.

I don’t know how long it took, but a surprised voice rang out: “Why are you guys still not sleeping? Aren’t you here to urge His Highness to rest?”

The one who came was Murong Shuanghua. She was sleeping with Xiao Guanyin. After waiting and waiting, there was no sign of the two of them. She couldn't help but come here to take a look, and she saw this scene.

Xiao Guanyin who was awakened was flustered as if she had been caught doing something bad, she didn't dare to watch Murong Shuanghua falter.Zhao Fang laughed loudly, hugged Murong Shuanghua with one arm, and said cheerfully without letting go of the other: "Sister Shuanghua scared the maidservant of Guanyin."

Guanyin is the nickname and nickname of Queen Li Shimin. The unscrupulous Zhao Fang has been calling her this for a long time because of the name Xiao Guanyin.

Murong Shuanghua now understood that the two of them were not doing bad things secretly here, and she became curious and asked: "What is Sister Guanyin looking at so much? Your Highness's head is pressed against your neck. I don't think you are aware of anything yet." .”

As he spoke, he glanced at the materials on the table. He was shocked when he saw a line of large characters on it: "On the advantages and disadvantages of the system of three provinces and six ministries, and a feasibility report on reforming the official system of the Song Dynasty."

"Your Highness wants to change the official system again?"

After asking in surprise, Murong Shuanghua immediately reacted, slapped herself in a hurry and blamed herself: "I have overstepped my bounds. I shouldn't have interfered with this matter. Please punish me, Your Highness!"

Zhao Fang let go of Xiao Guanyin now. The beautiful girl felt that the hand around her slim waist was missing. She quickly jumped up and took a few steps away before standing still.

Zhao Fang didn't catch her anymore, turned around and picked up Murong Shuanghua, caressed her face and said, "Why do you slap yourself so hard on the face? If it scratches and leaves a scar, is it yours or mine? Stupid bitches forget Your whole being is mine."

Murong Shuanghua was much bolder than Xiao Guanyin and didn't care about being kissed by him in front of others. Of course, the main reason was the difference between the Murong family and the Xiao family.

As a Khitan, Xiao Guanyin always reminds herself in every word and deed that she must not make any mistakes. Murong Shuanghua does not need to be so cautious.

The Murong family handed over military power early, and from the second generation onwards, they no longer have any involvement in the military. Even as a general, they do not have the control over the military like their ancestors did.

Therefore, Murong Shuanghua didn't worry about suspicion at all, as long as she did her duty as a wife, she didn't need to worry about having fun in the boudoir between husband and wife. It was enough just to stick to the harem and not interfere in politics.

Being petted by Zhao Fang, Murong Shuanghua said coquettishly, "Your Highness is so domineering, there is no one who can't control his own body."

"Hmph! Just can't, you are mine, mine, you know?"

"understood……"

She was acting coquettishly in a long tone, without the consciousness of a female general at all, and she didn't know if her aunt Murong Ying, who was regarded as Mu Guiying by future generations, did the same in front of Yang Wenguang.

The heroic beauty turned into a shy little woman, which was even more moving. Zhao Fang almost couldn't help but suppress her on the spot.

Fortunately, this was my concubine, so my reason still prevailed. I touched it secretly and said with a smile: "This official reform has not yet been finalized, and it is not suitable for outsiders to know. I want you to make suggestions and see where there are shortcomings." , it just so happened that Guanyin Maid came over and I caught her and took a look first. I will let you sisters take a look tomorrow and our family will discuss it."

Zhao Fang's words comforted Murong Shuanghua, and also explained the reason why Xiao Guanyin saw this. This was not something to be careful about. The safety of his own back house was actually a national matter.

He didn't want people to misunderstand that he only doted on Xiao Guanyin, which would cause discord between his wife and concubines.

In his opinion, all the competition for favor in the harem in the past dynasties was caused by men. You can love one person the most, but you cannot only give rights to one person.

This right is not the external kind, but the wife's right to enjoy her husband, because you don't have only one wife. No matter you love her or not, as long as she doesn't make mistakes, you will be given equal rights to her after you marry her.

Zhao Fang did this very well. Even though everyone knew that he loved Zhao Pan'er the most, he did not give Zhao Pan'er any special privileges in this aspect.
