I was a concubine in Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 171 Guar Jia Wen Yuan (39)

After having that heart-to-heart talk with Yinreng, Wen Yuan was actually a little scared.

It may be that Yinreng was too sincere at the time, which gave her the courage to confess; it may also be that with nearly 100,000 points as a backup, Wen Yuan felt that she was invincible...

In short, she didn't know what had possessed her at the time, and she actually believed what Yinreng said, that he liked her no matter what she was like, and she told him all her previous experiences.

Fortunately, Yinreng was a gentleman who kept his word. Not only did he not show any disdain, but he treated her even better, saying that he was willing to follow the example of Emperor Gaozong of Tang and Empress Wu and share the world with her.

Wen Yuan observed for two years. Yinreng treated her the same as always. He even took her into the court and taught her like a teacher and a father, little by little, about the emperor's mind and state affairs that she did not understand and had not systematically studied before.

I voted for peach and reported it to Qiong Yao.

In her relationship with Yinreng, Yinreng treated her sincerely for decades, so how could Wen Yuan not give back?

Some people may say that this is all the emperor's intentions. Yinreng knows that Wen Yuan is unusual, so he treats her the same as before, or even better.

But we should judge by deeds rather than intentions. If Yinreng treated her well and gave her unlimited power because he thought it was profitable, then wasn't Wen Yuan just coveting the power and money that Yinreng brought, and the love and warmth he gave her?

Moreover, if he was only after his own gains, he would have to be good to Wen Yuan for the rest of his life. Can a lie that deceived her for her entire life still be considered a lie?

After they truly connected their minds, Wen Yuan began to improve Yinreng's food and regulate his body. The water they drank daily was replaced with the spiritual spring water in Wen Yuan's space; the fruits and vegetables they ate daily were also replaced with those produced in the space.

In the following years, Wen Yuan also took the opportunity to raise some poultry in the space. They tried to use the better things produced by the space for their daily food and drink.

Even in the following years, Wen Yuan successfully refined the longevity pill. Well, it's just that her current pharmaceutical skills are not good enough. Currently, one longevity pill can only extend life by ten years. Uh, but it's not a big problem. At most, one pill every few years. Anyway, the raw materials for refining pills can be produced by her own space now, but Wen Yuan just needs to spend more time on manual labor.

Wen Yuan really couldn't bear to part with Yinreng, as he was the man she had finally found after four generations of hard work.

He knew that he was inferior, highly sensitive, dark, ruthless, and vicious... all these unpleasant traits, but he could still pity her, love her, and cherish her as always.

Wen Yuan felt that it would be difficult for her to meet someone like this again who loved her, could move her, and make her willingly let down her guard and take the initiative to analyze her past.

Who knows if I will meet Yinreng again in the next life after this one?

I advise you not to cherish your golden dress, but to cherish your youth. Pick the flowers when they are ready to be picked, and do not wait until there are no flowers left to pluck empty branches.

Precisely because it was not easy to come by, Wen Yuan especially cherishes the time she spends with Yinreng.

In the 20th year of Yuanqi, Yinreng and Wenyuan both felt that the national situation was already very good.

Outside, there were the Yunti father and daughter, the Yunxiang father and son, the Yunti father and son and others who were constantly expanding outward; the Yunti father and son were constantly poaching top talents from all walks of life in other countries outside the Qing Dynasty.

Among them, the third, fifth and seventh brothers are constantly compiling books and writing works, contributing to the knowledge and education of the Qing Dynasty; the ninth, tenth and eleventh brothers are constantly expanding their business empires to add bricks and tiles to fill the national treasury.

In the imperial court and in various places, the number of female officials has reached half of the number of male officials; workshops in the Qing Dynasty have achieved equal pay for equal work for men and women; the common people have full granaries and new clothes for everyone...

Feeling that he had done everything he could, Yinreng considered abdicating the throne to his eldest son Hongyan.

After all, Hongyan is already over thirty years old. Yinreng himself was also a crown prince, and he even served as a crown prince for more than 40 years. He knows too well how difficult it is to be the second in command.

Therefore, Yinreng, who was not greedy for power, felt that it was time to hand over the country to Hongyan.

Yinreng wanted to travel around with him after abdicating, to see the beautiful land of the Qing Dynasty and inspect the new territories they had conquered in recent years. Wen Yuan naturally had no objection.

She had lived in the Forbidden City for so many lifetimes that it was no longer new to her. On the contrary, Wen Yuan had only seen the local areas, including those that were later incorporated into the Qing Dynasty, in videos before, and had never personally experienced the local customs and practices of those places. She also hoped to travel more.

Since the two of them had already started to abdicate, they naturally had to call back all their brothers and nephews, including Hong Yan, who were fighting in wars or on business trips.

That’s right, Hongyan also ran out to fight for territory.

In fact, it is reasonable to say that the prince is the heir to the throne of the country, and he is not an ordinary person. He cannot go out on his own to do risky things like fighting. But this matter has to start from ten years ago.

At that time, Hongyan's one brother, four brothers, and one sister, except for the fifth prince Hongshi, who was not fond of swords and guns and only liked to write, all ran out to fight.

Hongyan was also an enterprising man. Seeing that his other brothers and sisters had gone out to make achievements, he, the crown prince, could only stay in the Forbidden City to deal with these boring political affairs. In fact, because many important matters were handled by his father, mother, and uncles, he only reviewed boring documents such as greetings on a daily basis.

This made the young Crown Prince Hongyan, who was only in his early twenties at the time, feel a little depressed.

This feeling of suffocation reached its peak when his younger sister Hongman also "gave up literature and took up military action". Instead of working honestly in the capital, she followed her cousin from her eldest uncle's family to hang out on the grassland, threatening to conquer a piece of land and even snatch back a prince consort that she liked.

How come his other brothers and sisters can do whatever they want, regardless of whether it is the emperor, the queen mother or the ministers in the court, they all indulge them? But he, the prince, is restricted everywhere because of his noble status and the foundation of the country, and he cannot make any mistakes?

The more Hong Yan thought about it, the more he felt wronged. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that if being the crown prince meant being so depressed and not allowed to go anywhere, it would be better for Hong Shi to be the crown prince. Anyway, Hong Shi liked to stay in Beijing and not go anywhere.

Hongyan's belated rebellious period broke out at this time. He only left a letter and did not tell anyone, including Yinreng or Wenyuan. He disguised himself and followed Yunzhen's army to fight in another continent with his confidants.

Afterwards, everyone saw that he had fought a battle outside and was not seriously injured. Yinreng and Wenyuan could not bear to keep him trapped in the capital, so they just let him go.
