    "Your Majesty said it last time, this time it's just me winning. Didn't His Majesty take the bet that His Majesty won long ago?"

    Thinking of that kiss and everything that happened after that, a wave of enthusiasm appeared on Shen Yu's face.

    The skin on the inside of the wrist was rubbed by the calloused finger pulp, and the numbness spread along the connected skin, winding upwards.

    Shang Jun looked at Shen Yu, his eyes getting darker and darker: "I did say it, but this time I think, will Ayu give it?"

    The wrist seemed to be lit by a fire, burning from the outside to the inside, Shen Yu withdrew his hand, but was stopped by the man.

    Shang Junlin's grip on his arm was not strong, but it just didn't allow him to break free. Shen Yu tried several times, but he didn't take his hand back.

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

    As if being scalded, Shen Yu's fingers curled slightly.

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

    Shen Yu only felt a damp heat coming from his fingers, he wanted to withdraw his fingers, but was restrained by the man forcibly.

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

    "Your Majesty, let me go, dirty..." Shen Yu turned his head away from the man's line of sight, his red bloody earlobes exposed in front of the man's eyes.

    Shang Junlin's Adam's apple rolled, and the flames in his eyes gradually started to ignite a prairie prairie.

    "Ayu, I want to kiss you."

    A vague voice sounded, Shen Yu's eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his head and did not speak.

    Shang Junlin laughed softly, and the tip of his tongue went around his fingers, leaving a trace of wetness.

    Shen Yu lowered his eyes and looked to the other side, I don't know when, his hand was released, the man walked behind him and leaned into his ear: "Ayu, let me kiss you, okay?"

    Although it was an inquiry, Shang Junlin didn't intend to really listen to Shen Yu's return, so he leaned over to his bright earlobe and opened his mouth slightly.

    The ripe bright red fruit was put into the mouth, and the tip of the tooth was gently run over from the top. The fruit was too delicate, and the owner did not dare to use force for fear of breaking it.

    The earlobes were treated like this, Shen Yu trembled all over, and all the senses were covered with a layer of fog, suddenly there was a sense of unreality, only the touched place, all the feelings came clearly.

    I don't know when, Shen Yu turned into a posture of sitting in the arms of a man, and the redder and brighter earlobes were released and turned to the side of his neck.

    Along the delicate jawline, it finally falls to the lips.

    Siege the city.

    There were big peach blossoms in full bloom in front of them, with pink in the white, filling the sight little by little.

    The slender, white fingers gripped the black shirt tightly, leaving behind creases.

    The shadow of the sun slanted westward, and the orange light and shadow surrounded the two of them in layers, giving them a hazy golden edge.

    Occasionally, a few small whimpering sounds came, but they were blown away by the wind before they reached my ears.

    Eunuch Meng led the palace servants to stand in the distance, bowed his head wisely, and did not dare to look more.

    As expected by Shang Junlin, the next morning, because of Fang Jiayi's incident, the pot was directly blown up.

    Even the fact that Shang Junlin took Shen Yu to the palace exam was selectively ignored by them.

    In the eyes of aristocratic officials, breaking the ancestral system and admitting women as officials is much more serious than other things.

    "Your Majesty, no, there has been no such precedent since ancient times. That Miss Fang family concealed her identity to participate in the imperial examination, which is a crime of deceiving the king!"

    "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to set such a precedent. If all women in the world follow suit, wouldn't it be a mess?"

    Someone who read Fang Jiayi's answer sheet yesterday retorted: "Not all women can be so talented."

    "So what? Looking at the past and present, which dynasty has a woman as an official? The woman should get married safely, stay in the back house and serve her in-laws, and spread the branches and leaves."

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

    Master Zhao's neck froze: "Am I wrong? If they are all keeping their guard, how could today's incident happen?"

    The front hall was arguing endlessly, and Shang Junlin never spoke. Shen Yu shook the cup in his hand and said to Mu Xi who was beside him:

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

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

    Hearing the voice from the front hall, Mu Xi was indignant: "Why do they think that women should be born in the backyard and open up branches for men?"

    "So, your Majesty said it well, some ministers in the court should indeed be changed."

    In his eyes, he can only see one and three points of the land in front of him, and his vision is short-sighted. Every day he only knows how to form a party for selfishness, and he can only waste his salary if he keeps it.

    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 women enter the court as officials was debatable.

    The rest of the Qian family also stood by the Prime Minister. After the last incident with King Li, Shang Junlin took the opportunity to promote a lot of his own people, and the DPRK and China were considered to have exchanged a lot of blood.

    A group of veteran officials headed by the aristocratic family refused to let go, and none of the children of the aristocratic family made it into the top three, and they were even occupied by a woman. How could they be reconciled?

    There is another reason. Their people are just the fourth place this time. If Fang Jiayi is eliminated, their people can occupy a place in the top three, and they will not be too ugly.

    The little Jiujiu Shangjun was very clear in the family's heart. Seeing that they were arguing with Yu Lie, he interrupted aloud: "Look at you, all of you with red faces, how can you look like an important minister of a country?"

    The hall fell silent.

    "Meng Chang, share the second-place answer sheet to them. You said that a woman should not be an official. You might as well read the article written by the woman before you speak."

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

    After reading it, some ministers who raised objections just because of Fang Jiayi's status as a woman bowed their heads in shame. Those who can keep their positions under the rule of Shang Junlin have certain knowledge. They can see that this article has written a lot. Okay.

    The faces of some ministers who were unwilling to admit that women were stronger than men changed and changed, especially Mr. Zhao, who wanted to lower Fang Jiayi into the mud just now, his face was blue and white.

    Rao is because no matter how much prejudice he has against women, he has to admit that the article in his hand is very well written. If he hadn't known in advance that it was written by a woman, he would never have believed that such an article would be written by a woman. written by a woman.

    "What else do you guys have to say now?" Shang Junlin looked down at his leisure.

    The ministers bowed their heads in silence.

    The prime minister was the first to stand up: "I think this woman has great talent and should be hired."

    Immediately afterwards, many people echoed.

    Standing in the crowd, Mr. Fang is both proud and distressed. He is proud that his daughter is so good, and he is distressed by everything that her daughter has to face on this road.

    There have been so many objections before the beginning. When the daughter really steps into the court, how much pressure and strange eyes will she be subjected to?

    Even though they felt the excellence of Fang Jiayi's articles, some ministers were still reluctant to accept women as officials, and Master Zhao was one of them.

    He glanced at a few people vaguely, and stood up: "Your Majesty, ministers and others recognize the excellence of this article, but there is no precedent for a woman to become an official in the court since ancient times. I hope Your Majesty will consider it carefully."

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

    Before long, a line of officials stood up.

    "Oh? Then you said, what should I do?" Shang Junlin lowered his eyes, and his voice was indifferent.

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

    Hearing this, Mu Xi's subordinates froze, "Young Master, this Master Zhao's thoughts are too beautiful. What's the difference between doing this and directly destroying Miss Fang's family?"

    "He just wants to ruin Miss Fang. Look at what he said before, inside and out, he thinks that women should be trapped in the back house, and that women are not worthy of the same treatment as men. Look at it, wait for Miss Fang to enter the court. The first person to clean up is him."

    It's not a bad thing to be careful, it's not a bad thing for everyone to think carefully and selfishly, it should never be done, because a little selfishness excludes others, Da Huan is not alone.

    "Heh," Shang Junlin laughed softly, "Warning the world, Master Zhao said, what did Fang Jiayi do, which is out of consideration for Lun Changtian, and it is his turn to warn the world?"

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

    "Master Zhao, as an important official of Dahuan, have you really read Dahuan's law seriously?" Shang Junlin lifted his eyelids and looked at him without the slightest emotion, "Tell me, which law? Which one says that women are not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations?"

    Under the heavy pressure, Master Zhao's legs softened and he knelt to the ground: "Chen, Chen..."

    "Since Mr. Zhao is not clear, let's go back and read my Dahuan's laws. You don't have to come to court until you can't write them down."

    "Your Majesty!" At this moment, Master Zhao clearly realized that he had violated the taboo of Shang Junlin, and it was Shang Junlin's ambiguous attitude from the previous dynasty to the present that gave him the illusion that he took the wrong step step by step.

    Yes, how could he forget, what kind of temperament Shang Junlin is, how could he allow others to jump on his head? Master Zhao fell to the ground in a slump, and realized that he was in a cold sweat.

    He simply sent Master Zhao neatly, and the remaining ministers who wanted to oppose did not dare to act rashly, and looked around with cold eyes. The ministers who had just sang the opposite stubbornly bowed their heads, for fear that the hair would fall on their heads.

    "Since I haven't violated the law, I can do what I want to do. Both men and women are my Dahuan's people. I don't want to hear anyone talking about gender in the future."

    The ministers were solemn in their hearts, and said in unison: "The minister follows the order."

    After going down to court, Shang Junlin saw the depression who had been waiting for a long time, and hugged the person into his arms: "Wait for a long time, let you sleep more and come back again."

    "It's okay, it's interesting to hear them quarrel." After listening to the minister quarrel all morning, Shen Yu raised his head from the man's arms, "Has this matter been dealt with?"

    "For the time being, no one will make trouble. When they are officially appointed, it is estimated that there will be another trouble." Shang Junlin stroked the hair behind Shen Yu, "I guess there will be some trouble with the official position for Fang Jiayi."

    "Your Majesty won't be afraid of them," Shen Yu blinked, "Your Majesty was really amazing just now."

    I don't know what to think, Shang Junlin made a move: "Ayu, tell me, where is I so good?"
