Chapter 26 Want to become the greatest emperor of all time?
The two of them had almost finished their meal. After washing up, Chu Yian felt tired and rolled straight into bed to sleep, lying on his back.
She had already woken up when Qin Sheng came in, reeking of alcohol.
He stood a little further away. Xiao Fu became a little alert when she saw him. She was afraid that Qin Sheng would touch Chu Yian, but she was also afraid that he wouldn't touch her. Her mood was extremely complicated.
Seeing Xiaofu's dilemma, Chu Yian simply sent her away to rest.
After everyone left, Qin Sheng walked towards the soft couch beside him: "I'm sorry, if I didn't come today, you would be criticized tomorrow."
Chu Yian didn't care at all and lay on the bed looking at him lazily.
Qin Sheng took off his coat, a look of fatigue appeared on his face, and he lay down and closed his eyes.
It can be seen that Qin Sheng did not treat her as a woman, and she did not treat Qin Sheng as a man.
Chu Yian asked Qin Sheng curiously: "You said you were staying here today. Will your group... get jealous and rush in to kill me?"
Qin Sheng opened his eyes and said helplessly: "Don't worry, they won't, and I won't let them touch you, so you don't have to worry about that."
"Although marrying me won't make your life very comfortable, it won't make you suffer any injustice, and certainly won't put your life in danger."
"If that day really comes, I will protect you."
Chu Yian curled his lips: "It sounds good, but don't forget that the emperor is still thinking about the Qin family."
Qin Sheng's eyes darkened, and an obscure light flashed in his eyes.
Chu Yian propped up his chin and frowned, "We are husband and wife now, after all. If the emperor ever gets upset and really wants to take action against the Qin family, I will definitely not be able to escape."
"The Qin family is still useful now, so he won't move. But I'm afraid that one day he'll suddenly start causing trouble, and by then it will be too late to run away."
Qin Sheng: ...
As expected, the happiest thing about being with Chu Yian is that Chu Yian has a mouth that is so equal that it kills everyone, even the emperor is not immune.
This ruler of the world did not receive any special treatment from Chu Yian.
She is probably the only one in the world who dares to speak like this.
The fatigue between Qin Sheng's eyebrows receded. He sat up and suddenly became curious: "So what do you want?"
Chu Yian also sat up cross-legged, thought carefully, and said: "First, tell me what kind of person the emperor is. Be objective and don't be biased."
Unfortunately, Qin Sheng was born with a prejudice against him: "He is not a good person."
Chu Yian: ...
Qin Sheng added, "He wanted to achieve great achievements that would be remembered for eternity, but unfortunately, his abilities were mediocre and he lacked the brains. Maintaining the current state of Dashun and preventing invasions from neighboring countries has already exhausted all his energy."
"However, neighboring countries still come to harass us from time to time. This is just the military aspect, not to mention other aspects."
"In short, he's a man with ambition, incompetence, and a strong sense of suspicion."
"If I have to say it, there is nothing good about it."
Qin Sheng is really bold in speaking out, he is not afraid that there are ears on the other side of the wall.
However, Chu Yian could understand why Qin Sheng was so dissatisfied with the emperor. If it were her, she would curse the emperor eight hundred times a day.
Moreover, Qin Sheng's words were quite to the point. Although they might have contained some of his prejudices, he had hit the point.
Chu Yian touched his chin and thought.
He has ambitions to achieve great things, but his abilities are mediocre, and he is also wary of his generals...
Seeing Chu Yian deep in thought, Qin Sheng was a little curious: "Why, do you really want to help him become an eternal wise ruler?"
Chu Yian: "Shh, don't talk, let me think about it."
As he said this, he fell on the bed and wrapped himself tightly in the quilt. After a while, he began to snore softly and fell asleep.
Qin Sheng: ...
Chu Yian had a dreamless night and woke up the next day feeling refreshed. Qin Sheng had already gotten up and was practicing martial arts in the yard.
Chu Yian opened the door and stood by to admire him for a while. He had to say that Qin Sheng was really handsome and his martial arts moves were really neat, which made people feel good.
After Qin Sheng finished practicing a set of gun techniques, he looked at Chu Yian and said, "You fell asleep very quickly last night."
Chu Yian chuckled foolishly: "There's nothing I can do. Using your brain makes you sleepy. I've tried my best to resist, but it's no use."
Qin Sheng: "Have you come up with any solution?"
Qin Sheng just asked casually, and didn't expect Chu Yian to really come up with a way to make the emperor drop his vigilance against the Qin family.
Chu Yian, however, gave him a thumbs up and told him with sparkling eyes: "Of course, we have to find a way."
Qin Sheng was stunned and looked at Chu Yian seriously.
This person is often not serious and often jokes.
But Qin Sheng knew that Chu Yian would not joke about such things, so...did she really think of a solution?
Chu Yian stretched himself and said, "Thanks to what you told me last night, I suddenly understood."
"I'm not afraid of his ambition to become the greatest emperor of all time, but I'm afraid that he'll do nothing but harm his loyal ministers."
"Just think of it and don't talk about anything else."
Qin Sheng put down the red tassel spear in his hand, wiped his hands, and walked to Chu Yian: "What's the solution? Tell me, if it's feasible, I'll arrange for someone to do it."
"If that doesn't work, we'll think of another way."
Chu Yian showed a confident smile on his face: "He wants to become the greatest emperor of all time but doesn't know how to do it. I have many people who can serve as references for him."
Qin Sheng:?
Qin Sheng frowned, his eyes were indescribable.
Chu Yian went back to the house to wash up: "Wait for me for a while, I will go with you to see the Duke, ah no, it's my parents-in-law."
"And don't be so impatient. Let me think about how to do it."
Qin Sheng nodded and said nothing more. He had to be cautious about anything concerning the Qin family. Whether Chu Yian could come up with a solution or not would not affect his determination to find other ways to save the Qin family.
After Chu Yian had packed up, the two of them slowly went to the main courtyard accompanied by maids and servants.
Although many things were known to outsiders, Qin Sheng still told Chu Yian about the situation in the mansion.
"Our family is a little special, you know. I'm a bit of a jerk. My parents were so anxious to arrange a marriage for me in order to make me settle down. In fact, my two brothers are not married yet."
"Firstly, I haven't met the right person yet. Secondly... the daughters of those ministers are not suitable to marry anyone."
Chu Yian understood that it was all because of the fear of the superiors.
If Qin Sheng hadn't been so absurd, he probably wouldn't have gotten married so soon. He would have had to wait until his two older brothers got married.
The Duke and the Duchess were probably counting on her to win Qin Sheng back, but unfortunately, she really didn't have the ability to do so.
When the two of them wandered into the main courtyard, the Qin family members were already waiting there.
In addition to the Duke and his wife, the eldest brother Qin Huaishu and the second brother Qin Rang were also there.
There was also a little girl sitting at the table who looked only four or five years old, which shocked Chu Yian.
Where did this child come from?
Didn’t Qin Sheng say that his elder and second brothers were unmarried? Then what about this little girl?
Could it be that he didn't get married, but had a mistress or concubine? This... isn't good...
Chu Yian looked at the little girl, and the little girl also looked at her curiously. When she met her gaze, she quickly lowered her head, looking a little timid.
Chu Yian frowned slightly and asked Qin Sheng with his eyes what was going on with this child.
How did a good child become like this? Did the Duke's Mansion mistreat her?
Seeing Chu Yian staring at the little girl as soon as she arrived, the Duke's wife hurried forward to hold Chu Yian's hand, smiling lovingly: "Yian, you have just married into the Duke's Mansion. If there is anything you are not used to, please don't be polite and tell me. This will be your home in the future. We are all family. Don't let yourself be wronged."
Chu Yian retracted his gaze, gave a well-behaved smile, nodded, and called "Mom" sweetly.
She has a way of pretending to be good, at least the Duke's wife, Mrs. Tao, is very much attracted to her.
The smile on Tao's face suddenly became even wider, and she quickly responded.
After marrying Duke Qin, they had three sons but no daughter. In fact, Tao had always wanted to have a daughter.
It’s a pity that she injured herself when giving birth to Qin Sheng, otherwise she would not have stopped until she gave birth to her daughter.
So at this moment, looking at Chu Yian's well-behaved appearance, her heart was so soft that she even forgot about her own son.
No matter how close you are, you still have to go through the necessary procedures.
Chu Yian offered tea to the Duke and the Duchess, then turned his attention to Qin Sheng's two brothers.
This was the first time Chu Yian had seen these two people. I have to say, the Duke and his wife were really good at giving birth. The whole family was so handsome.
Especially Qin Huaishu, who has a clean and slightly elegant temperament and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, which makes people feel close to him unconsciously.
The second brother Qin Rang looked a little nonchalant, and had a pair of fox eyes that made him look very shrewd.
Without waiting for Qin Sheng to introduce, Qin Rang took the lead in handing a wooden box to Chu Yian, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, this is the first time we meet, and I don't know what you like. This is a meeting gift."
Chu Yian glanced at Qin Sheng, who nodded slightly before she took the gift: "Thank you, second brother."
Qin Rang: "You're welcome. If Qin Sheng bullies you in the future, just come to me and I will definitely help you deal with him."
Qin Sheng: ...Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to say this?
Qin Huaishu glanced at Qin Rang calmly, with a warning in his eyes, indicating that he should stop talking nonsense.
Qin Rang must have been somewhat afraid of his elder brother, and indeed, he became much more obedient.
Qin Huaishu then handed a wooden box to Chu Yian and called out gently, "Sister-in-law."
