Chapter 20 The Tyrant Says that Husband and Wife's Property Should Be Shared
The room was filled with sunlight that shone into it, as if it was tinged with honey, shining brightly on the man's back.
He stood against the light, shielding her from the tiny pieces of gold. The shadow he cast covered Emperor Jing, who was sitting in the main seat with a smile on his face.
Jun Lin lit the incense burner on the table and watched the smoke rising from the hollow incense cover, carrying the elegant fragrance lingering in the air.
Then she raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, her pupils shining brightly: "I don't like being looked down upon."
She sat and he stood.
The man straightened his back with his eyelids drawn down. Although his smile was as gentle as spring breeze, the condescending attitude and disgust in it were clearly visible to the young emperor.
Hearing this, he suddenly leaned over and pressed the folding fan against Jun Lin's soft, plump red lips. His handsome face instantly moved closer, and his thick, long eyelashes fluttered gently. The man smiled: "Even though I'm bending down, I'm still looking down at you."
The curve of her red lips slightly widened, and Jun Lin narrowed his eyes with a playful look: "Do you mean to say that you are always superior to others?"
Emperor Jing smiled and whispered his name like a lover: "Jin Ge."
The gentle tone gave him goosebumps all over his body. Under the unchanging gentle mask was a strong sense of disgust.
Jin Ge said calmly, "How dare I? Who in this world would dare to go against your wishes?"
The gentle tone concealed a sharp knife: "Your Majesty is so brave that he was able to take me back to Jingguo to be his male favorite at my coronation ceremony."
This made him, the crown prince of Yue, lose all face and become a disgrace to the royal family.
The anger hidden beneath the calm eyes began to surge, but he didn't expect the other person to suddenly pull him closer by the collar, and as he staggered slightly, his thin lips unexpectedly touched the fan bone.
The other side of the fan bone was pressed against Emperor Jing's bright red lips.
The distance suddenly shortened to almost zero. He stared in shock. In front of him was a face as white and delicate as fine porcelain. At this moment, the owner of the face was blinking his dark and clear eyes and looking at him with a teasing smile.
The man's hair fell on her face, and his arms were on both sides of the wooden chair, trapping her in a small space. Jun Lin was puzzled: "My beloved, how can you talk to me? You, please be more polite."
The warm breath spread over Jin Ge's face as her lips opened and closed, carrying a light and elegant fragrance that invaded his senses. Little by little, the man retracted his thorns and silently covered his slender and thick long eyelashes, hiding the obscure emotions in his eyes.
Too close.
He had never seen her so closely before.
An overly charming face and an irresistible aura of a superior. Ah, this is the first time in all these years that I have seen the tyrant being so alluring.
After Jun Lin finished speaking, he took advantage of the force of pulling his collar and pushed the man away ruthlessly.
Jin Ge stood up straight, and when she raised her long eyelashes again, there was a hint of interest in her eyes; the disgust was real, the disdain was real, and the interest was also real.
"Go, fill my cup of tea first."
He placed his folding fan on the table and washed the tea set and made tea in an elegant manner.
Jun Lin watched carefully. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his beautiful arms with smooth lines and texture. He washed the teapot and teacup with boiling water, then used a teaspoon to put tea leaves into the teapot and poured in boiling water. After a few seconds, he poured out the tea.
With graceful movements and the elegance of an aristocrat, she continued to pour boiling water into the teapot, covered the pot and let the tea simmer for a few minutes before handing the cup to Jun Lin. The whole process was done in one go and was pleasing to the eyes.
"Please."
The fragrance of tea fills the room.
Jun Lin took it and smiled: "It wasn't poisoned."
Jin Ge supported his chin with one hand, looked at her hand twisting the silver needle, and said slowly, "I haven't done it yet."
Then he saw the man put away the silver needle that was about to test the tea, picked it up, blew air into it, and sipped it.
The man was stunned. He didn't expect that the tyrant could trust him so much.
Then a smile appeared on his lips.
The belly is full of black mud and gurgling black water. Hidden under this skin as clear as the breeze and bright as the moon, is a sick and crazy heart.
Everything is getting interesting.
Jun Lin: "I am here alone today..."
Jin Ge: "Do you want to pay me more money to call you a few times at night?"
Jun Lin: “…”
That's not the case. I really don't have the money to buy some music now.
There seemed to be a crescent moon hidden in the man's gentle eyes, which was clear and beautiful.
"Let's not talk about that for now. This set of tea is five hundred silvers. The tea leaves used can only be grown in the snowy region and need to be watered with dew every day. It is precious and requires a lot of effort. It is worth five hundred golds."
The words lingered on his tongue, and the richest man in Yue called her sincerely, "Husband, how do you think we should settle this expense?"
Jun Lin: “…”
What is the appropriate way to settle the bill?
Is it appropriate to settle it based on your head count?
Article 17 of the Marriage Law clearly stipulates that the following property acquired by a husband and wife during the marriage shall be jointly owned by the husband and wife.
This includes income from production and operation.
You are my man, so I can't use the tea sets and tea leaves you bought with your earnings?
This won't do. Tomorrow, let Minghe incorporate this modern marriage law into the Jing Kingdom's Code, otherwise there will be no way to control this rampant Crown Prince of Yue.
Seeing that she was distracted, Jin Ge raised an eyebrow: "Don't want to pay?"
My husband asked you to pay me back?
She said honestly: "The property of a couple is shared."
"Shared? Where in the world is there any law or regulation that says this?"
"Don't worry, Jingguo will have it tomorrow. I'll ask Minghe to edit it."
Jin Ge: “…”
Angina.
You have the power to do as you please.
He said calmly, "Since ancient times, men have been in charge of the family finances, and wives and concubines only need to receive monthly salaries. Do you think that the property is shared? Emperor Jing, you are too fanciful."
The millennium tradition of patriarchal society has always been that men are superior to women.
Jun Lin said with a smile: "Then the man in this family is not me? You are the favorite concubine, shouldn't you hand over all the property to me to manage?"
As the other party narrowed his eyes unkindly, she said loudly: "If you don't want the status quo to change, then hope that I don't become the master of this world. Otherwise, the first thing I have to do is equal rights."
Her attitude was too calm and generous, and even when she was sitting, her noble demeanor was not diminished.
Perhaps he was used to being bored, and also used to her doll-like dullness under the tyranny, so the man asked curiously: "Huh? She was kidnapped? Is this the incompetent Emperor Jing that I know?"
But he soon realized what was going on, and suppressed the dark smile in his eyes without saying anything.
If it does not fly for three years, it will grow feathers; if it does not fly or make a sound, it will observe the people's example.
Even if it doesn't fly, it will soar into the sky; even if it doesn't make a sound, its sound will be shocking.
At this moment, Jin Ge mistakenly believed that the years of Jun Lin's tyranny were just a cover-up to lull other countries into letting their guard down and lying in wait for a surprise attack.
Jun Lin thought that the crown prince of Yue was willing to stay in the harem in order to endure and accumulate strength, and then overthrow her in one fell swoop.
In fact, Jin Ge, who was just bored living in the harem, said: This person is indeed scheming and ambitious.
In fact, it is really just Jun Lin who is being controlled and exercising tyranny: this person is really able to endure and bear the heavy burden and remain undercover until now.
Jin Ge exclaimed: "You have deceived the whole world."
Jun Lin sighed: "I was almost fooled by you."
The two people who were completely on different channels suddenly felt a sense of mutual understanding.

Named Jin Ge.
It's black mud. Even though he looks very reasonable now, he is actually a madman in normal human skin.
