"Your Majesty said it last time, this time it's only me who won. Didn't Your Majesty take away the bet that His Majesty won?"

Thinking of that kiss, and everything that happened afterwards, waves of enthusiasm appeared on his gloomy face.

The skin on the inner side of the wrist was rubbed by the callused fingertips, and the tingling sensation spread along the connected skin, winding upwards.

Shang Junlin looked gloomy, and his eyes became darker and darker: "I did say it, but this time it's what I want, will you give it to Ah Yu?"

It was as if a fire had been lit on the wrist, burning from the outside to the inside, depressed and retracted his hand, but was stopped by the man.

Shang Junlin's strength in holding his arm was not strong, but it was just enough to prevent him from breaking free. He tried several times in depression, but he didn't take his hand back.

The man held his hand, lifted it up, lowered his head slightly, and landed a soft kiss on the back of Shen Yu's hand.

As if being scalded, depressed fingers slightly curled up.

Shang Junlin didn't let go of his hand, an intimate kiss ran down the back of his hand and landed on his fingers, his thin lips parted slightly.

Shen Yu only felt a burst of damp heat from his fingers. He wanted to pull his fingers back, but was restrained by the man.

There was a dense feeling of being bitten from the fingertips, and the man's eyes fell on himself, not as if he was biting his fingers, but as if he was tasting something delicious.

"Your Majesty, let me go, dirty..." Sullen turned his head to avoid the man's sight, exposing the red bloodied earlobe in front of the man.

Shang Junlin's Adam's apple rolled, and the flames in his eyes gradually ignited a prairie fire.

"Ayu, I want to kiss you."

A muffled voice sounded, and the gloomy eyelashes trembled, and he bowed his head without speaking.

Shang Junlin laughed lowly, and the tip of his tongue went around his fingers, leaving a wet mark.

Shen Yu lowered his eyes and looked to the other side. At some point, his hand was released. The man walked behind him and leaned over to his ear: "Ah Yu, let me kiss you, okay?"

Although it was a question, Shang Junlin didn't intend to really listen to the gloomy return, and leaned closer to the bright earlobe, and opened his mouth slightly.

The ripe bright red fruit is put into the mouth, and the tip of the tooth is gently rolled over from the top. The fruit is too delicate, and the owner dare not use force for fear of being damaged.

The earlobe was treated like this, and the whole body trembled in depression, all senses were covered with a layer of fog, suddenly there was a sense of unreality, only the place that was touched, all the feelings came clearly.

At some point, the melancholy turned into a posture of sitting in the man's arms, and the redder earlobes were let go, rolled to the side of the neck.

Along the delicate jaw line, it finally falls to the lips.

Siege cities.

There are big peach blossoms blooming in front of my eyes, pink in the white, filling my sight little by little.

His slender, fair fingers tightly gripped the black shirt, leaving creases and creases.

The sun slanted to the west, and layers of orange light and shadow surrounded the two of them, creating a hazy golden edge for them.

Occasionally, there were a few small whimpers, which were blown away by the wind before they reached the ears.

Eunuch Meng led the servants standing in the distance, lowered their heads tactfully, not daring to look more.

As Shang Junlin expected, the next morning, because of Fang Jiayi's matter, the pot exploded.

Even the fact that Shang Junlin went to the palace examination with depression was selectively ignored by them.

In the eyes of family officials, breaking the ancestral system and recruiting women as officials is much more serious than other matters.

"Your Majesty, no, there has never been such a precedent since ancient times. It is a crime of deceiving the emperor that the Miss Fang family concealed her identity and participated in the imperial examination!"

"Your Majesty, you must not set a precedent like this. If all women in the world follow suit, wouldn't it be messed up?"

Someone who read Fang Jiayi's answer sheet yesterday retorted: "Not all women can have such great talents."

"So what, looking at ancient and modern times, which dynasty has a woman enter the court as an official? Women should marry in peace, stay in the back house obediently and serve their parents-in-law, and spread their branches and leaves."

"Master Zhao's words are wrong. There are not a few women who are capable. How can you say such prejudiced words?"

Mr. Zhao's neck twitched: "Am I wrong? If they all kept their own place, how could today's incident happen?"

There was endless debate in the front hall, but Shang Junlin kept silent, shook the cup in his hand gloomily, and said to Mu Xi beside him:

"Look, these people have nothing to say. They can only talk about the crime of deceiving the emperor. I wish His Majesty would immediately execute this 'rebel' woman."

Shen Yu got up early today and waited for Shang Junlin in the apse. He was also very curious about what the chaos would be like this morning.

Hearing the voice from the front hall, Mu Xi felt annoyed in his heart: "Why do they think that women are born to live in the backyard and spread their branches and leaves for men?"

"So, His Majesty is right. Certain ministers in the court really should be changed."

The eyes can only see the one-third of the place in front of him, short-sighted, only know about forming a party for selfishness every day, and keeping it can only waste his salary.

The quarrel in the front hall continued, and some officials headed by the prime minister recognized Fang Jiayi's achievements, although they felt that the matter of letting a woman enter the court as an official was open to discussion.

The rest of the Qian family also stood on the side of the prime minister. After the incident with King Li last time, Shang Junlin took the opportunity to promote many of his own people.

A group of veteran officials headed by the aristocratic family refused to let go, not to mention that none of the children of the aristocratic family entered the top three, and a woman took the spot, how could they be reconciled.

There is another reason, their person happens to be fourth this time, if Fang Jiayi is eliminated, their person can occupy a place in the top three, and they won't be too ugly.

The aristocratic family's little ninety-nine, Shang Junlin was very clear. Seeing that they had Yu Que Yu Lie's posture, he interrupted: "Look at you, all of you are red-faced, how can you look like an important minister of a country?"

The hall fell silent.

"Meng Chang, give them the second place answer sheet. You say that a woman should not be an official. You might as well read the article written by the woman before talking."

Eunuch Meng led the little eunuch who was waiting on the sidelines, and distributed the articles that had been prepared one by one.

After reading it, some ministers who raised objections just because of Fang Jiayi's female status bowed their heads in shame. Those who were able to keep their official positions under Shang Junlin's rule were all knowledgeable. They could see that this article was written a lot. good.

The faces of some ministers who were unwilling to admit that women were stronger than men changed again and again, especially Mr. Zhao, who just wanted to put Fang Jiayi in the mud, his face turned green and pale.

No matter how much prejudice he has against women in his heart, he has to admit that the article in his hand is very well written. If he didn't know in advance that it was written by a woman, he couldn't believe it. Such an article would be a Written by a woman.

"What else do you have to say now?" Shang Junlin took a moment to look down.

The ministers bowed their heads in silence.

The prime minister took the lead to stand up: "I think that this woman has great talent, so she should be hired."

Immediately afterwards, many people echoed.

Standing in the crowd, Mrs. Fang was both proud and distressed. He was proud that his daughter was so outstanding, but he was distressed by everything that his daughter had to face on this road.

There have been so many objections before the beginning, how much pressure and strange eyes will my daughter receive when she actually goes to court

Even after feeling the excellence of Fang Jiayi's articles, some ministers were still unwilling to accept women as officials, and Mr. Zhao was one of them.

He secretly exchanged glances with several people, and stood up: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others recognize the excellence of this article, but since ancient times, there has been no precedent for a woman to enter the court as an official. I hope Your Majesty will consider it carefully."

"I hope His Majesty will follow the precedent and consider this matter carefully."

Not long after, a row of officials stood up.

"Oh? Then you say, what should I do?" Shang Junlin lowered his eyes, his voice could not distinguish between emotions and anger.

Master Zhao said loudly: "I think that your majesty can give a certain reward, but you must also warn the world about this, and there must be no next time!"

When Mu Xi heard this, his subordinates paused, "Young master, Mr. Zhao's thinking is too beautiful. What's the difference between doing this and directly destroying Miss Fang's family?"

"He just wanted to ruin Miss Fang. Look at what he said before. Inside and outside, he felt that women should be trapped in the back house, and that women are not worthy of the same treatment as men. Just wait and see, when Miss Fang enters the court, He's the first one to clean up."

It's not a bad thing to have small thoughts, everyone will have small thoughts and selfishness, and you should never do it, because a little selfishness excludes dissidents, and Da Huan is not alone.

"Heh," Shang Junlin smiled lowly, "Warning the world, Mr. Zhao is talking about what Fang Jiayi has done that disregards morals and laws, and it is her turn to warn the world?"

"This..." Master Zhao hesitated, "She took part in the imperial examination as a woman..."

"Master Zhao, as an important minister of Dahuan, have you really read the laws of Dahuan seriously?" Shang Junlin raised his eyelids and looked at him without the slightest emotion, "Tell me, which law, Which one says that women are not allowed to take the imperial examination?"

Under the heavy pressure, Mr. Zhao's legs softened, and he knelt down on the ground: "Chen, Chen..."

"Since Mr. Zhao is not clear, it's better to go back and read up on my Dahuan's laws. You don't have to come to court until you can't memorize them all."

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, Mr. Zhao clearly realized that he had violated Shang Junlin's taboo. It was Shang Junlin's ambiguous attitude from the court to the present that gave him the illusion that he made a wrong step.

Yes, how could he have forgotten, what kind of temperament is Shang Junlin, how could he allow others to jump on him? Mr. Zhao fell to the ground slumped, and later realized that he was covered in cold sweat.

Mr. Zhao was simply dismissed, and the remaining ministers who wanted to object did not dare to act rashly. They looked around coldly. The few ministers who had just sang against the tune just now lowered their heads firmly, for fear that the hair would fall on their own heads.

"Since you haven't violated the law, you can do whatever you want in this matter. Both men and women are my subjects. I don't want to hear people talking about gender in the future."

All the ministers were sullen in their hearts, and said in unison: "I obey the order."

After going down to the court, Shang Junlin saw the depression that had been waiting for a long time, and hugged him into his arms: "It's been a long time, I'll let you sleep more and come back later."

"It's okay, it's interesting to hear them quarreling." After almost listening to the ministers quarreling all morning, he lifted his head from the man's arms gloomily, "Has this matter been settled?"

"No one will make a fuss for the time being. When they are officially appointed, they may have to make a fuss again." Shang Junlin touched the hair on the back of Su Yu, "There may be some noise about the official position given to Fang Jiayi."

"Your Majesty is not afraid of them," Shen Yu blinked, "Your Majesty was really amazing just now."

I don't know what came to mind, Shang Junlin paused: "Ayu, tell me, what is so good about me?"
