After rebirth, the eldest princess dotes on her husband

"I entered the court as an official at the age of sixteen. Now I am sixty-six and have assisted four emperors. Life is only a hundred years, and I have dedicated half of my life to the country, the emperor, and the people of the world. The eldest princess is only thirteen years old. Before she even reached the age of marriage, she put on armor and went into battle to protect the peace of Western Chu. You named her the regent princess for her military exploits. She worries about the country and the emperor. Have I ever been disloyal to you?"

"You treat the eldest princess like this because of a demon concubine. Are you going to become a tyrant and be reviled by the world? If a century-old foundation is destroyed in your hands, when you die in the future, won't you be ashamed to face the ancestors of the Yun family?"

"How dare you!" Yun Min stood up and walked down, and walked to the front of the Prime Minister. "You mean, I can't live without Yun Shuyue, right?"

"I dare not." I dare not, not that I can't. The implication is that without Yun Shuyue, you are nothing.

Yun Min was about to get angry when the little eunuch ran in.

"Your Majesty, Queen Dongling has been assassinated!"

"Your Majesty, if something happens to the Queen in Xichu, Dongling will not let it go. The Princess of Dongling has always been eyeing Xichu, so we must be on guard!"

Yun Min suddenly felt overwhelmed.

"I beg Your Majesty to allow me to retire and return home."

Elder Cao also knelt beside the Prime Minister and said, "I hope Your Majesty will allow me to return home in glory and enjoy my old age in peace."

Yun Min glanced at the civil and military officials in the hall, then left in a huff.

"Dismiss the court." Eunuch Gao flicked his whisk and followed Yun Min.

Lin Minglei helped Prime Minister Yu up, "Brother Yu, come to my house and have a couple of drinks."

Prime Minister Yu glanced at the court and looked much older in an instant.

"How could this beautiful little girl become like this? When the Queen Mother was alive, she doted on her so much. Now that the Queen Mother is gone and Miss Lin is gone, how miserable she must be. If she were an ordinary princess, she would have been gone by now."

Lin Minglei remained silent and drank alone.

Prime Minister Yu patted his shoulder and said, "I remember when I was a young man, you entered the court. You were a young boy who didn't know what to do, but you dared to challenge the emperor in public. At that time, Uncle Lin was very angry. It was not until we got married that you became more restrained. You always followed me around and asked me to teach you how to be an official."

"You became the Prime Minister at the young age. I'll tell you the truth. The reason I followed you was to see if you were as honest and upright as the rumors said. At that time, my father always mentioned you in front of me, and I was very dissatisfied in my heart. So, I followed you and wanted to find something to hold against you. Later, I really admired you."

Lin Minglei's eyes were hollow. "I serve the people as an official in the court. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the official uniform? I have seen so many disputes, big and small, in the court that I am numb. There is so much corruption in the court. Until Your Majesty ascended the throne, there have been even more dirty things."

"I also want to retire and return home to be a hands-off boss, but if I leave, Chao'er will be even more isolated and helpless in the capital. Among the emperor's many princes, who can compare to her?"

"Never mind. I'm old and can't do anything about it. The Prime Minister who was so powerful when he was young and feared everyone is now half buried in the ground. He has no deterrent power at all." Prime Minister Yu handed a letter to Lin Minglei, "Give this letter to the princess. After all, I have been an official for fifty years and have my own connections. She can always use it."

"Minglei, tell the princess for me that there is a precedent for women ascending the throne in Western Chu. If there is no precedent, she will be the precedent. If I can live to that time, and she needs my help, I will definitely help her."

"I will definitely bring it."

"I have to go now, take care of yourself."

That night, Prime Minister Yu was assassinated in his home. When Lin Minglei found out, he became so angry that he fell to the ground.

"Your Highness has locked himself in the study room for the entire day and has not even had a meal. Your Highness, please go in and try to persuade Your Highness." Chang Li was extremely anxious, but he did not dare to go in.

"Go to the kitchen and bring some food, something light."

"Yes."

Shen Yici pushed the door open and walked in. The floor was littered with books, and ink and wolf-hair brushes were placed in a disorderly manner on the table. Yun Shuyue was standing on a chair and reaching for the book on the top shelf. Water was still dripping from her skirt and sleeves, her hair was scattered behind her in a mess, and a blue headband was lying on the floor. The hairpin in her hair had long since disappeared.

"Yuebao, you've been busy all day, eat something."

"I'm not hungry. The study is messy. You go back first." Yun Shuyue flipped through a few pages of the book in her hand, threw it aside, jumped to the ground, moved the chair to another place, and continued to read other books.

There were more and more books piled up on the floor, and fewer and fewer books on the bookshelf. Yun Shuyue's temper became more and more irritable. She picked up a book and tore it off and threw it heavily on the ground. Finally, she pushed down the bookshelf directly. Not feeling satisfied, she kicked it twice, then turned around and smashed everything on the desk to the ground.

Chang Li: Prince Consort, please save our lives, they are worthless...

Shen Yici walked up to her and hugged her, "I know you can't accept that Prime Minister Yu is gone, but he definitely doesn't want to see you like this."

"He dedicated his entire life to Western Chu. All his descendants died for the country. The youngest grandson was only sixteen years old when he died in battle. The Yu family is full of loyal warriors. How dare they? They are the veterans of four dynasties. How dare they kill him?" Yun Shuyue was trembling all over. She didn't feel any pain even when her nails were embedded in her palms.

"Mr. Yu may have known what would happen to him, so he arranged everything in advance, dismissed his servants, and before he died, he bathed and burned incense, choosing to rest in peace in the Yu Clan Ancestral Hall. This was his choice."

"I know you are very angry now and want to kill them to avenge Yu Lao. Before you avenge them, you can't fall down. If you fall down, more people will die. All our previous efforts will be destroyed, and their sacrifice will become meaningless."

As Shen Yici spoke, he put his hand into her palm and felt something sticky. "Yuebao, your hand is injured. I'll apply medicine for you, okay?"

Changli wiped her tears, handed the things in her hand to Changfeng, and went to get the medicine box.

Shen Yici pulled her to sit on the chair, "Eat something, I'll feed you."

"How's Grandpa doing?"

"Just now the General's Mansion sent a message that my grandfather has woken up. My grandmother stayed with him to persuade him for a while, and he took medicine. Now he is at the Yu family to keep vigil over the body of Mr. Yu."

"He has no relatives in this world anymore. I have to go and see him off."

Shen Yici lowered his eyes and treated the wound on her hand. "Eunuch Gao has passed on an oral order that Prime Minister Yu has unfortunately passed away. He was once your teacher. His Majesty has allowed you to leave the palace for three days to see him off."

“Hahahaha…” Yun Shuyue laughed out loud, tears sliding down her eyes, “This villain succeeded, he killed my mother, and now he has killed Elder Yu, two lives, I will never let him go!”
