cabinet first lady

Chapter 101 How lucky
In the evening of the same day, Shen Wei returned to the official residence from the palace, changed into ordinary clothes, and went to Yin's mansion with the Shaoxing wine that had been stored for a long time.

"Master Shen."

Shen Weichao nodded to the gatekeeper of the Yin residence.She has gone back and forth to Yin's Mansion many times, but most of the time she walked through the back door, and the number of times she went through the front door was very few.This time she can finally swing, no longer sneaking around.Walking to Yin Ji's residence with ease, she just saw him sitting at the table in a long gown, as if he was waiting for her.

Hearing the movement, Yin Ji raised his head.Seeing Shen Wei in normal clothes, with a straight posture and a jug of wine in his hand, a frivolous smile appeared on his face.

Officials in Guanghua wear court uniforms when they go to court, official uniforms when they are in office, and ordinary clothes when they are at home, so he seldom wears long gowns.Long gowns are worn by scholars.This kind of attire made him look particularly bookish, but the frivolous and handsome brows and eyes made him not like an ordinary scholar, but a romantic scholar who is a beauties at night.

"Master Shen, please." He gestured.

Shen Wei stepped forward, put down the wine, lifted the hem of his clothes, and sat down.

Yin Ji called his servants, and asked them to pour the wine into the jug, and then put it in an ice bucket to chill, very particular.

Shen Wei looked at his movements and said, "Lord Yin really enjoys it."

Southerners are inherently more refined, not to mention Yin Ji's background.He was the son of the prefect of Pingjiang for more than ten years, and he lived the life of a dude. Later, he found out about his life experience, recognized his ancestors and returned to the Yin family in Yangzhou, and lived a few years of fear and crisis.

Yin Ji poured wine for Shen Wei himself, then raised his glass, looked at her with a smile on his face and said, "Let's celebrate the good show in the morning court today."

Shen Weihao clinked glasses with him unabashedly, and drank it down in one gulp.

After a choking spicy taste in the throat, the aftertaste is somewhat sweet.Shen Wei took a bite of the food with chopsticks, frowned and said: "The food served at Mr. Yin's house is not as good as before."

"I only found out that Yin Yue had run away when I came back today, and now the cook in the house has changed." Mentioning Yin Yue, Yin Ji frowned.Her identity may not be simple.

Mentioning Yin Yue made Shen Wei feel inexplicably uncomfortable. Seeing Yin Ji frowning, she couldn't help but smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Yin is very reluctant to part with that Yin Yue. Maybe Mr. Yin can go and speak to the Queen Mother. If you want someone, the Empress Dowager might give him back to you."

Hearing this, Yin Ji's eyes fell on her face, and he showed a meaningful smile and said, "Master Shen seems to care about Yin Yue in particular."

When a woman cares about another woman, it is mostly because of jealousy.

Although Yin Ji didn't say it bluntly, Shen Wei heard the deep meaning, and his eyes turned cold.

Seeing that she seemed to be about to get up and leave in the next moment, Yin Ji quickly changed the subject and raised his glass: "Master Shen, come and have a toast."

Yin Ji's drinking capacity is still good, but Shen Wei is not so good.Zhang Anyi was there most of the time when he was drinking. He was very cautious in doing things, and he drank almost all of her wine for her.Shen Wei had few opportunities to drink, let alone exercise.

Now Yin Ji consciously led her to drink a few cups, her fair face blushed, and the coldness in her eyes was also diluted by a kind of confusion. People can't move their eyes.

She was a little too old, but Yin Ji didn't remind her, instead he chatted with her: "What's Master Shen's plan next?"

Although Shen Wei was a little dizzy, his consciousness was still clear.But she was stopped by Yin Ji's words.

What can she plan?
She can't help herself anymore, she can't have her own plans, she can only go on this official road, to the end, to death.

In normal times, Shen Wei would not show a little helplessness and loss, but now she has unconsciously shown this sentimentality on her face.

She shook her head: "Don't say it, don't say it." As she spoke, she drank a glass to relieve her worries.

Yin Ji saw her reaction and felt pity in his heart.He approached her and asked in a low voice: "Master Shen, have you ever considered getting married and having children?"

Shen Wei was taken aback by his words.

marry and have children.

Her heart jumped with these four words.It is undeniable that she was a little moved.But so what?
When she came back to her senses, she found that Yin Ji had already sat beside her, very close to her.

"What are you doing so close to me?" She pushed him dissatisfied, and said, "Yin Ji, in your capacity, in my capacity, it's too difficult. It's hard for us to get to where we are today, the more we have The harder it is to give up. Even if I can, can you?" She has walked this road herself, and knows how difficult it is to have everything today.

Yin Ji looked at the disappointment on her face unconsciously, curled his lips into a smile, and said frivolously, "What if I say I can?"

He made an understatement and joked like a thunder, Shen Wei's hand shook, the wine glass fell down, all the wine in it spilled out, spread to the edge of the table and dripped slowly, dripping on her regular clothes, leaving left a deep imprint.

Yin Ji reached out to lift up the wine glass, put it in her hand, picked up the wine jug to refill her, then picked up his own wine glass and touched her: "Please."

He no longer dwells on this topic.

Shen Wei really wanted to ask what he meant by that sentence, but Yin Ji didn't mention it anymore, as if deliberately hanging her up.She was unwilling to take the initiative to ask, so she drank the wine in the glass.

"Master Shen is really refreshing."

Yin Ji's words were like a stone smashed into Shen Wei's heart lake. Although it sank, there were ripples left behind, and the water could never calm down again.

But as she drank more and more, her mind became chaotic, and what happened just now seemed to be an illusion and was left behind by her.

At some point, she leaned against Yin Ji's arms, still holding a wine glass.

At first glance, I thought it was two men rolling together, but looking carefully at Shen Wei's expression at this time, the two hugging each other is still very charming.

Yin Ji also drank a lot, his handsome face flushed. "Master Shen, did you drink too much?"

Shen Weiyi looked up in his arms, looked at him from bottom to top, and met his deep eyes.Probably because she drank too much wine, Yin Ji became more pleasing to her eyes.

Warm and fragrant nephrite in his arms, the scent of wine in his nose mixed with a faint fragrance of lotus, holding a pair of icy muscles and bones in his arms on such a hot day at the end of June and early July, and kept moving in his arms, separated by The faint coolness of the clothes made him reluctant to let go. It would be such a comfort if he could be close to her without barriers. Yin Ji couldn't help but think of the scene he couldn't forget, and a hot current gathered in his lower abdomen.

This kind of thing probably happens once and you will know the taste.

It was as if a flame had risen from the fundus of his eyes, burning stickily, and under the flame was her shadow.Shen Wei only felt that his body was frozen, and he couldn't even look away, as if he was going to be sucked into the flame.

In an instant, everything was quiet, only the breathing of the two gradually increased.

I don't know who broke the stalemate first and got closer, making the fire burn more vigorously.

Gan Chai Liehuo, by the time Shen Wei came to his senses, he and Yin Ji had already kissed each other, their bodies clinging to each other.

She knew that he was seducing on purpose, and she was being seduced on purpose.

Probably the mood is too relaxed and good today.

This kiss was out of control, and there was no time to stop.The jug of wine was touched by someone's movement, and it fell down completely. The wine gurgled down the table and onto the clothes they were entwined with.

Lips and teeth blend, and the air is filled with the sweet aftertaste of wine.

Feeling the back of the waist being rubbed through the clothes, Shen Wei only felt that there was a kind of numbness spreading to the whole body, which made her tremble uncontrollably, and there was a desire to be comforted and fulfilled in her heart. Looking forward to it.Sensing that Yin Ji was going to make a further move, she gently pushed him, followed her heart and body, and reminded in a low voice: "Go and close the door." Her cold voice was mixed with a touch of seductive stickiness.

Her attitude was tacit obedience.

Yin Ji raised his lips and touched her shiny lips several times before letting go. She got up and walked over to close the door.

After shutting Fengyue out, Yin Ji turned around, and saw Shen Wei's regular clothes were messy, the skirts were slightly open, and his cheeks were flushed.

He stepped forward, picked her up amidst her exclamation, and walked towards the bed.

Sorrowful lingering, swaying figure, accompanied by satisfied sighs, entangled all night.

With the lesson from last time, Yin Ji woke up very early the next day.

Seeing that the person in his arms was still asleep, and his glowing white skin was covered with traces left by himself, he finally felt that he was not the one who was slept in vain.

The hand he was holding around Shen Wei rubbed along the curve of her back, the scars on the back were obviously protruding, as if a crack had appeared on a piece of beautiful jade, which was regrettable.

Shen Wei woke up from the itchy feeling on his back.

Faced with Yin Ji's frivolous smile, Shen Wei retreated and wanted to leave his embrace.She drank too much last night, but she had some impressions of what she did, which made her blush with madness.

"woke up?"

Yin Jichen's voice was slightly hoarse.

As he spoke, he was about to kiss her forehead, but was pushed away by Shen Wei.

Her push seemed to have annoyed Yin Ji, and he suddenly rolled over on top of her.Shen Wei started to blush from the neck, frowned and pushed him away, reminding: "I still have to go to Wenyuan Pavilion, you have more things to do than me, why don't you get up?" Only when she opened her mouth did she realize her own voice Also a little hoarse, dry throat.

Yin Ji looked down at her embarrassed and serious look from above, and smiled: "Master Shen reminded you." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her lips, and did not let her go until both of them were short of breath.

When I came to drink last night, I didn't think about staying overnight, so Shen Wei didn't bring his official uniform, and Yin Ji's clothes were too big, so Yin Ji had to send someone to the official residence to get them quietly.

In this way, Shen Wei went to Wenyuan Pavilion a little later.

Zhang Anyi had already arrived when she arrived.

Looking up and seeing the exhaustion in her expression, Zhang Anyi asked: "Did you not sleep well last night?"

The eyes of this two are too good.

Shen Wei immediately left his sight and pretended to do other things, and replied: "I drank some wine last night, and I drank too much."

Seeing her unnatural expression, Zhang Anyi didn't ask further.

Qiu Lin had already been imprisoned yesterday, and now they are holding a large number of lists that were checked out by the previous household department. The next step is to ask the cabinet to take this list and start to eliminate the faction belonging to Queen Mother Qiu.

Although the Queen Mother Qiu has gone, but they still have to guard against their counterattack, so they still need to be more cautious in the future.

"Don't worry, I will cooperate with the next thing, you just need to spend more time on the officials."

In the days to come, officials will continue to be dismissed and investigated, and the vacancies will naturally need to be filled. There is also a lot of attention to it, and Zhang Anyi will not take it easy.

Zhang Anyi, Shen Wei, and Yin Ji each performed their duties.

Shen Wei has always been sitting in Wenyuan Pavilion.After a few days, she found that she had received a lot of papers to impeach Yin Ji.Some of them were because Yu Shi was really dissatisfied with his behavior, and some were the final counterattack of Queen Mother Qiu's faction.There are those who abuse their power, those who embezzle and accept bribes, all kinds of names, and even those who mess with men and women.

Shen Wei looked at these scriptures and felt angry.In the past, she might have added more details and sent all the excerpts to the Holy Majesty, but now she has unknowingly sided with Yin Ji.

What made her especially angry was the article about his confusion about men and women.

In the end, she buckled all these folds, threw them into the incense burner and burned them.

She burned as many of these notebooks as she came up with.

After working for nearly ten days, Shen Wei finally had time to relax. Shen Wei remembered that he hadn't gone to see Zhang Qingshi yet, so he asked someone to search for some good things, and bought some delicious food to go to see him.

Yin Ji also went with her on the same day.

Shen Wei frowned when the two carriages met on the street outside Zhang's residence.

"I said earlier that I would go to see my godson with Mr. Shen." Yin Ji said with a smile.

Shen Wei felt that his words were very ambiguous, Zhang Qingshi was his godson, and when he said that, it seemed that Zhang Qingshi had become the godson of both of them.

"When we go in for a while, our well water will not violate the river water." She warned.

Yin Ji nodded: "Naturally."

In Chuanyun Courtyard, Zhang Qingshi was overjoyed when he learned that his godfather and Uncle Shen came to see him, and he said "Godfather" and "Uncle Shen" when he came up, and made them both very useful.

Yin Ji simply hugged him in his arms, weighed him and joked, "It seems that you are doing well, and you have gained some weight."

Zhang Qingshi immediately pouted.

Ruan Muyang originally thought that they were joking before, but he didn't expect that these two people really came together, and he was a little surprised.

She invited the two of them into the hall, and made tea on the red glaze.

Yin Ji annoyed Zhang Qingshi, and after entering the room, he stretched out his hand to Shen Wei, asking for a hug from Shen Wei.

Shen Wei liked him very much, so naturally he hugged him and rubbed his face.

Yin Ji looked at her holding the child with gentle eyes, and felt soft in his heart.

"How is Mrs. Sister-in-law's health these few days?" Shen Wei asked with concern.

Ruan Muyang is now nearly eight months pregnant.During the few days when Zhang Anyi "disappeared", she was really exhausted and her body was very weak. Later, the doctor saw her, and she has been making up for it in the past few days.

She smiled and said, "Thank you Master Shen for your concern, I'm fine now."

Shen Wei nodded: "Seeing that Mrs. Sister-in-law's complexion has improved, and seeing that Qingshi is fine, I am relieved."

Zhang Qingshi in her arms has never been peaceful, and has been moving around, and Yin Ji has been teasing him.Accidentally, following Zhang Qingshi's movements, Shen Wei's collar was pulled down a little bit, although it was only for a moment, Zhang Qingshi still saw it. "Uncle Shen was also bitten by a bug."

He spoke suddenly, and the three adults present were stunned for a moment.

Zhang Qingshi said childishly: "I just saw a red spot under Uncle Shen's neck."

Children don't understand anything, but adults do.

Shen Wei's face immediately turned red uncontrollably, and subconsciously glared at Yin Ji.The marks on her body were naturally left by him.Ever since that night of drinking and indulgence, they have always maintained that relationship.During the daytime, most of them are busy with their own activities, probably because the days are too busy and tight, and they will feel a bit indescribably lonely when they leave the palace at night.

After one time, I found that although Huanhao was a little tired, it could relax me and get a good night's sleep, so Shen Wei no longer rejected it.Anyway, she won't be able to marry in this life, so it's okay to be like Yin Ji.After she figured it out, she followed her heart.

Yin Ji naturally couldn't wish for it.The two of them together are like dry wood and raging fire.Of course Shen Wei would not let herself become pregnant, most of the time she let Yin Ji vent outside, sometimes both of them were too involved and forgot, and she would drink medicine the next day.

Many times it was Shen Wei who went to Yin's mansion, and occasionally Yin Ji would go to Shen Wei's official residence in person.

The marks on Shen Wei's body now are what he left just last night.

Facing the accusation in her eyes, Yin Ji didn't feel guilty at all, and smiled back.

Ruan Muyang is someone who has experienced it, so he naturally knows how the mark under Shen Wei's neck came about.It's just that Yin Ji is a woman disguised as a man.

Just when she was puzzled, she noticed the eye contact between Shen Wei and Yin Ji.There was some embarrassment in Shen Wei's eyes, it was clearly——

Most of the traces on her body are related to Yin Ji.Ruan Muyang didn't expect the two of them to be together.But Shen Wei is a woman disguised as a man and pretending to be an official. Once it is discovered that it is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, how dare they?
Sensing Ruan Muyang's gaze, Shen Wei felt nervous.

Just when Ruan Muyang was in a complicated mood, not knowing whether it was happiness or worry, Zhang Qingshi said again: "Why are there so many bugs? My mother is also often bitten, but she never bites me."

As soon as these words came out, Ruan Muyang's face also turned red.It was rare that she was so embarrassing, she wished to seal Zhang Qingshi's mouth, and annoyed Zhang Anyi again in her heart.

In an awkward atmosphere, Shen Wei and Yin Ji stood up and said goodbye.

Ruan Muyang was thin-skinned, so naturally he didn't keep them.

Only Zhang Qingshi's small face was full of doubts: "Why did Godfather and Uncle Shen leave so quickly? Why is Uncle Shen's face so red?"

He looked at Ruan Muyang, and found that Ruan Muyang's face was also red, and asked: "Mother, why is your face also red?"

"It's all hot." Ruan Muyang said without changing his expression.

Zhang Qingshi suddenly realized and nodded.

Coming out of Zhang's mansion, the temperature on Shen Wei's face has not faded.She looked at Yin Ji coldly, and said with a trace of sadness in her tone: "Most now, my sister-in-law may have spotted it, and I don't know if she has discovered that I am a woman." She felt that Ruan Muyang spotted her It's about Yin Ji, but I don't know if she knows that she is a woman.

The matter was very important, she didn't want people to know that she was disguised as a man, but she didn't want people to misunderstand that she was with Yin Ji.

In contrast, Yin Ji was much calmer.He looked at Shen Wei's flustered look in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Maybe she has already seen it."

"Shut up!"

Yin Ji recalled how she hugged Zhang Qingshi just now, and said, "You like children very much? Have you ever considered having one?"

Having said that, he suddenly approached her ear: "With me."

Shen Wei's body stiffened for a moment, and she suddenly remembered the night of drinking together, she said he couldn't give up what he got now, and he asked her if he could?
Originally, this memory had been blurred for a long time, but now I remembered it all at once, and it was very real.

In the evening when Zhang Anyi came back from the Ministry of Officials, Ruan Muyang told him about Yin Ji and Shen Future's visit to Zhang Qingshi today.She thought about it and decided to tell him what she found.

"I looked at Mrs. Shen and Yin Ji—they seem to have an unusual relationship." She had a thin skin and couldn't speak out.

Zhang Anyi was not surprised by this, as if everything was within his expectations.

"How did Madam know?" His tone was very gentle.

Thinking of the predicament during the day, Ruan Muyang blushed and said, "I saw the hickey under Master Shen's neck."

It turned out that this was the reason for her blushing.Zhang Anyi smiled teasingly.

Embarrassed by his laughter, Ruan Muyang changed the subject and asked, "You already knew? I'm worried that if they continue like this, Mrs. Shen's disguise as a man will be discovered." She wondered why Zhang Anyi knew about it but didn't stop it .

Zhang Anyi naturally wouldn't stop it.

He was happy to see that Yin Ji had a sweetheart.

"It's not an option for Shen Sikong to continue like this. I have persuaded her, but she is unwilling to leave the court. If Yin Ji has the ability to persuade her, it would be the best, and everyone will no longer have to worry about it." Zhang Anyi spoke softly. Speaking of his own thoughts, "The two of them are not easy to get out of the way, and I will observe the situation from the sidelines."

What he meant was to secretly watch out for the two of them.

It turned out that he had already planned for Shen Wei.Ruan Muyang looked at this gentle, refined man who could accommodate everything in his eyes and shoulder the burden of the country, in addition to peace of mind, there was also a feeling of admiration in his heart.Since they got married, her admiration for him has never dissipated.

Zhang Anyi was very pleased with her gaze, he reached out to hold her in his arms, and kissed her on the cheek.

Ruan Muyang has always admired Shen Wei and pitied her.It would be the best if she could live a woman's life, and she also understood Yin Ji. Although he appeared frivolous on the surface, he was actually kind and responsible in his heart.

They are indeed a good match.

One month later, the largest investigation since Emperor Yuan came to the throne ended with the dismissal of nearly a hundred officials from the imperial court.

Locally, the Jinling area, where corruption is the most serious, punished many officials, most of whom were relatives of the Qiu family. The imperial court also specially appointed a censor to governor Jiangnan, which almost emptied the power of Jinling weaving.In the court, the faction of Queen Mother Qiu represented by Qiu Lin and Qiu Tong was also thoroughly investigated.After Qiu Lin was dismissed from office, he was severely beaten twenty times. Qiu Tong, the minister of Honglu Temple, was also involved in corruption and was dismissed for investigation.

After all, the Qiu family was the mother's family of the Empress Dowager Qiu, and the Empress Dowager Qiu was the biological mother of the Emperor Yuan, so the Emperor Yuan left room for it and did not severely punish her.The Dowager Qiu had no choice but to officially retire to the harem for the elderly.

There are punishments, and naturally there are rewards.

Zhang Anyi, the assistant minister handpicked by the first emperor, the great scholar of Zhongji Temple and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the young teacher Zhang Anyi, was officially ranked among the three princes.

Shen Wei, Minister of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar of Jianji Temple, was granted the title of Shaobao, Cong Yipin.

Yin Ji, Shangshu of the Household Department and a scholar of the Wenhuadian University, was granted the title of Shaofu, from the first rank, and ranked among the three orphans together with Shen Wei.

Emperor Yuan finally came to power, and the chaotic government that had been turbulent for many years stabilized. From then on, a period of prosperity was about to begin, which was known as the prosperity of Xinde in history.

As the youngest chief assistant of the cabinet in this dynasty, Zhang Anyi has experienced ups and downs, and has become the most powerful official in the history books of Guanghua in the past century, and no one can surpass him in the hundreds of years later. The three words "Zhang Anyi" will surely become a name that many scholars in later generations look up to and respect, and it is a legend of Guanghua.

Two months later, Zhang Mansion, Chuanyun Courtyard.

Accompanied by Ruan Muyang's cry, the servants came in and out nervously, not daring to breathe.

Today is the day of her delivery.

Zhang Qingshi followed Zhang Anyi, watching the birth of his younger sister outside the house together.Hearing his mother's voice, he was terribly frightened, and his little face was full of tension.

After a long time, the child's crisp crying finally broke the tense atmosphere.

Fang Fang, who was in the house, ran out first, and said with joy on his face: "Congratulations to the second master, the madam has given birth to a young master."

Zhang Anyi was obviously also relieved.

But at this moment, Zhang Qingshi burst into tears suddenly: "I want a younger sister, where is my younger sister?" The younger sister who had been looking forward to for ten months finally became a younger brother. Terrible.

Although he was crying pitifully, others couldn't help but want to laugh when they saw him.

At this moment, the midwife ran out again and said excitedly: "Congratulations to Mr. Zhang Ge, Ma'am is a twin, and she gave birth to a young lady."

"Great." Hongyou was the first to exclaim happily.

Zhang Qingshi's crying stopped abruptly, as if he hadn't recovered from the crying just now, he almost choked on his saliva.

"Young master, you have a younger sister." Hongyou said.

Zhang Qingshi realized that he had a younger sister, and suddenly laughed excitedly, with tears still hanging on his face, so cute.

After giving birth, Ruan Muyang was extremely tired. Knowing that she had given birth to a son and a daughter this time, a gratified smile appeared on her sweaty face.

When they got married, Zhang Anyi was 19 years old and she was 17 years old.He took part in the imperial examination, entered the Hanlin, became a close minister of the emperor, and finally became the chief minister of the cabinet. She was careful everywhere, and finally avenged her previous enemy.They have been together for many years, life and death, and have experienced two replacements of the throne together, watching impossible enemies fall one by one, and now they are finally both sons and daughters.

What she is most grateful for is that she had the chance to live a new life, and then married him.

How lucky.
