Peasant Woman is in Her Prime - C210

The fragrance of the wind wafted through the air along with the sound of the bamboo dew. It was the time of summer when the hundred flowers had bloomed together, and a small stable had been built within the lush clusters of the Grand Liquid Pond.

The eldest son of the diligent Prince Yao, Zhao Lin, was six years old. He wore a dark blue jacket and sat on a white stallion and with a pinch on his legs, the stallion raised its mane and galloped forward while whining. In front of him, there was a wooden fence that was about to cut the wide road in half. Seeing that the white horse was about to charge at him while carrying the boy, Lin’er raised his hand and pulled on the reins.

The moment the horse fell to the ground, Lin’er took out the bow and arrows on his back, and with a swing of his arm, an arrow shot out like a blazing meteor, striking the clay pot on the wooden stake in front of him that was wrapped in red silk.

The crisp sound of a jar breaking rang out, followed by a wave of warm applause.

“Alright!” The Emperor shouted and stood up to applaud Lin’er.

When the officials saw the emperor stand up, they all stood up. They were convinced from the bottom of their hearts. Earlier, many of the young noble young masters wanted to show off their skills in front of the crowd. However, after the commotion, the jar was still in its place.

“Since Lin’er is already so outstanding at such a young age, he will definitely be a source of support for Great Zhou in the future.”

The Emperor praised loudly.

However, when these words entered the ears of the crowd, they unconsciously changed. What did Great Zhou have to rely on? Only the Emperor was the basis of a country’s subjects.

To them, the Emperor was actually afraid of Prince Yao’s family. The more he praised them, the more they wished for nothing more than to get rid of him as soon as possible.

The Lin’er bowed towards the Emperor, took the prize, and then left the horse farm. He walked to the table that was surrounded by hundreds of flowers at the back and picked up his brother who was sitting on the chair. The two brothers, one big and one small, sat together.

Nian Er was also three years old. Compared to the Lin’er in the past, Nian Er was much more quiet and reserved, he did not like to talk much.

Jin Xiaolou sat on the left side of the two children and sipped on a cup of wine. She raised her eyes to look at the emperor who was sitting on the dragon throne.

If Jin Xiaolou did not know, that the Emperor was speaking from the bottom of his heart, she would have misunderstood, this kind of person who ruled over mountains and rivers would view the Prince Yao as a thorn in his side.

Just before the Lin’er’s birthday banquet began, the moment Jin Xiaolou and her two children entered the palace, they were summoned by the Emperor to the imperial study.

The Emperor only gave orders to Prince Yao and his wife, while Lv Yun and Lv Yun went to another place to play.

Jin Xiaolou followed beside Gao Lang and entered the imperial study. For the first time, the Emperor revealed her thoughts in front of the two of them.

The sixteen year old Emperor Zhao Yu was no longer as helpless and tender as three years ago. As he sat at the table, he naturally gave birth to a wave of deterrence, which instantly vanished into thin air upon seeing Zhao Yao.

In that moment, Jin Xiaolou knew that the Emperor’s dignity was being put up.

As expected, the emperor soon explained the reason why he called the two of them here. It was because the emperor didn’t want to be the emperor anymore.

“Seventh Brother, in the past, it was my mufei who wanted me to be emperor, then Esteemed Empress Dowager who used me as a puppet to force me to be emperor. But no one has ever asked me if I was willing to be emperor.”

The current Zhao Yu was only a sixteen year old child being held hostage by the circumstances and doing things that he wasn’t willing to do.

“It’s too difficult to be an emperor.” Zhao Yu lowered his head, “Not only do I have to know everything, learn everything, and deal with the major affairs of the entire world, I also have to be constantly afraid, afraid that someone will come to take my life. Seventh Brother and Seventh Sister, if it wasn’t for you two helping me all these years, I’m afraid I would have lost my position as the Emperor. ”

“Not only is the position of the emperor lost, my little life is also lost!”

Zhao Yu screamed out the last sentence.

Jin Xiaolou sighed lightly, she completely understood Zhao Yu’s feelings. When she had become the youngest professor in the whole academy, she had already felt immense pressure, and for a period of time, she had not been able to sleep at all, and even stayed up all night to conduct experiments. Only then did she come back with her life.

It was all because of the pressure. She was just a professor. This young emperor was facing an entire country. How could an ordinary person withstand such pressure?

It seemed that he had to have talent in order to be an emperor.

“Therefore, after thinking about it, I might as well take advantage of Lin’er’s birthday to say what’s on my mind.” Zhao Yu continued, “I was thinking why is it so troublesome? Right now, Great Zhou’s prosperity is basically all thanks to you two, then what do you need me to do? It would be better for you to be the emperor yourself, seventh sister is the queen of the world, with your talents as husband and wife you can certainly start a prosperous life. And I… “I just want to live a life of luxury, not worrying about food and clothing, and not spending too much time thinking about it …”

Jin Xiaolou’s eyelids jumped, she was already kneeling down: “As long as Your Majesty is king, Zhao Yao will be your subject, and you will not dare to take even a single step further.”

Jin Xiaolou also followed suit and knelt down, but before his knees could land on the ground, they had already been lifted by the emperor himself.

“Seventh brother, Seventh sister, I’m not joking.” Zhao Yu panicked.

Seeing that Zhao Yao remained kneeling without moving, Zhao Yu turned around and walked straight to the side of the table, raising an imperial edict: “We have long prepared this decree, if you are so, we can only decree it on you. This is the only good thing about being the emperor. Everyone must follow what I say. ”

Zhao Yu opened the imperial edict, and didn’t even bother to read it aloud, as he directly passed it into Zhao Yao’s hands. “We are in Zen, and we are in your hands.

Gao Lang held onto the imperial edict. Three years ago, when the Prince Xian took over the throne in the imperial palace, Gao Lang could see that Zhao Yu was not made for being the emperor. It was just that he did not expect Zhao Yu to be so free and easy, and directly give up the imperial throne.

When the Lin’er’s birthday feast ended, the imperial edict was read out by the hundreds of officials and ministers alike. The people who were guessing just now were all dumbfounded, but with Prince Yao’s achievements, Zhao Yao was older than Zhao Yu and was also the Queen’s son. The throne should have been taken by him, but now it seemed like it had returned to its original owner.

All the ministers fell to their knees to cheer for their master.

He lifted his robe and kneeled out, then said with his head bowed. “Prince Yao being handsome and handsome, with a scholarly look, is a blessing for the Emperor himself, but Prince Yao’s consort is born with a low birth rate, I’m afraid he cannot bear the responsibility of being the Queen’s phoenix crown.”

“My mother’s background is low, her family background is shallow, yet she has made an outstanding contribution to the prosperity of Great Zhou, both inside and outside the country. To be able to shine amidst such hardships, to have outstanding strategy, and to have peerless intelligence and courage, all because of her character and character, it should be worthy of the love and respect of the world! ”

The Lin’er poured out a torrent of words, and Gao Lang immediately praised: “Alright!”

“Even a six year old child can understand this principle. You’re a stately Minister of the Department of Revenue, yet you don’t know about it? You’re really wasting your time studying!” Gao Lang continued, “What I don’t like the most is to judge a person by their birth. No one can choose their birth, and the only thing I can do is tightly grasp my destiny, thus a Humble Class genius is even more difficult to come by!”

The Emperor, Zhao Yu, sat on the throne and looked down. He raised his eyebrows and said: “Prince Yao is right, after I assume my position, the Prince Yao will ascend to the throne. The Prince Yao’s consort, Jin Xiaolou, will be the Queen.”

Outside the palace, a plain carriage slowly approached, the black curtain covering the carriage tightly. As it neared the Li Palace, it was forbidden to take even a step closer before the carriage suddenly came to a halt.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted and a middle-aged man wearing shabby clothes and a tattered straw hat came out from the carriage. The man was about to get out of the car when a pair of slender hands reached out from behind the curtain and grabbed him.

“Did you remember everything I said?” A woman’s eager voice came from behind the curtain.

“Aiyo, don’t worry, I’m not stupid!” The man said impatiently, “What can you not remember about such a small thing!”

“That’s good!” The lady released her hand, and just as a gust of wind blew over, lifting up half of the curtain, revealing Jin Xiaotao’s face that was covered in makeup.

The man jumped down from the carriage, lifted his belt and walked towards the palace gate with a swagger.

When he reached the entrance of the palace, he was naturally stopped by the guards. The man didn’t panic and spat loudly: “I’m going inside to beat the crap out of everyone!”

As he said that, he pointed towards the inside of the palace gate, where there was an empty square in front of the palace.

“Go go!” The guard picked up his scabbard and pushed the man out of the room. “This drum isn’t something you can ring. If you want to cry injustice, go and knock at the front of the capital’s yamen!”

The man grinned, revealing a mouthful of black teeth: “How could I not? I am the father of Prince Yao’s concubine, I want to sue the emperor about my daughter. I am, the official wife of Prince Yao, and I don’t respect my father!”

“What drum do you think I should hit instead of that one inside? “My daughter is the emperor’s sister-in-law. I am the emperor’s uncle. Can the government manage the family affairs of the emperor?”
