Xie Rong pinched her waist and snorted, "Your brother is much better than you. When he heard that I wanted to do this, he supported me. Unlike you, you smile but don't smile, and you pretend to obey but actually disobey me!"

I have heard that my sister-in-law is very powerful. This is the first head-on confrontation between Yang Xu and Xie Rong, or to be more precise, it is the first confrontation since they grew up!

He suddenly realized that this girl had become even more exaggerated when she grew up.

Thinking of this, Yang Xu was speechless for a while, and said unhappily with a twitch of the corner of his mouth: "How do you know that I am pretending to obey but secretly disobeying? Could it be that you can read minds?"

"If you are not pretending to obey but actually disobeying, then come and be Mr. Wu!" Xie Rong snorted, with confidence.

This time, the person was really put up.

Seeing Yang Xu like this, Xiao Yunlan covered her mouth and chuckled, tugged at his sleeve, and asked softly, "Is it okay, husband?"

The call of "husband" softened Yang Xu's heart, and she agreed immediately: "As long as it's what the princess wants, I can do it. I am willing, very willing!"

That's pretty much it!

Xie Rong looked at Yang Xu like this and snorted, "You are useless!"

"You have a promising future, you are so fierce!" Yang Xu was not willing to be outdone.

Xiao Yunlan actually already knew about the grudge between the two people long before, but she didn't expect that after so many years, the two still disliked each other. It was the first time she saw Yang Xu being so fierce and mean, and she always found it ridiculous.

She tugged at Yang Xu's sleeve: "I want to have a good talk with them, it's not convenient for you to be here!"

"Okay, then I'll go to the kitchen to see how your tonic is doing." Yang Xu nodded immediately, turned around and rolled his eyes at Xie Rong, then strode away.

Xie Rong seemed to have caught something wrong and snorted, "You little brat, how dare you glare at me? I'm your sister-in-law! Come back here and apologize!"

Seeing Xie Rong's relentless look, Xiao Yunlan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly grabbed her and said helplessly, "You also know that you are my sister-in-law? Look at you now, you don't look like a sister-in-law at all, but an enemy!"

"We knew each other first, how could you protect him?"

"You value women over friendship, don't you?"

Xie Rong sat down angrily.

"You saw how he spoke to me just now. I tell you, this brat has been asking for a lesson since he was a child!"

"I think you're too nice to him. You should give him a beating from time to time, then he'll behave himself!"

After Xie Rong sat down, she continued to curse.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yunlan laughed out loud.

"He has always been very honest."

"Yes, we see that the prince consort is very caring towards the princess. He really likes her."

Lin Huan also nodded. It was the first time she saw the couple living so well and loving each other. They only had each other in their hearts and eyes. She was really envious.

"Come to think of it, you are already sixteen years old. Hasn't your family arranged a marriage for you?"

"Or, do you have someone you like?"

Xie Rong looked at Lin Huan with some curiosity.

Lin Huan's face flushed instantly, he lowered his head and whispered: "Marriage is decided by parents, how dare I make it private? But I won't lie to you, I really don't want to get married!"

If before Lin Huan just wanted to stay at home and wait to get married and live the rest of her life peacefully, now Lin Huan’s thoughts are completely different.

It’s a pity that Lin Huan grew up under the constraints of these rules, so he can only obey his family’s arrangements and see who will be the winner in the end.

"However, Miss A Yue is very good to us girls and gives us the right to divorce at will. If our life is really bad, we will still be us even if we divorce!" Lin Huan smiled gently.

I have to say, this right, although it may seem insignificant, gives all these girls a way out!

"Of course, Ah Yue is very smart and capable." Xiao Yunlan was extremely proud. She took Xie Rong's hand and said with a smile, "We will go to the palace together in a while. You go to see the Queen and I go to see the Emperor. Let's settle the matter of the girls' school first, okay?"

"Okay." Xie Rong agreed immediately.

A few little girls gathered together and soon started chattering happily.

Yang Xu stood not far away and looked at Xiao Yunlan's happy and bright face, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the tenderness in his eyes could not be concealed.

At this time, Yang Hua appeared out of nowhere and patted Yang Xu on the shoulder: "Have you heard? The emperor wants to reduce the power of the vassal states."

"What did you say?" Yang Xu looked at Yang Hua in disbelief, and then looked at Xiao Yunlan reluctantly, and then walked towards the backyard: "Why do you want to reduce the power of the vassal state for no reason?"

"Do you really think that reducing the power of the feudal lords is a bad thing?" Yang Hua frowned slightly and stared at his brother.

Yang Xu quickly calmed down and thought about it carefully before nodding: "In fact, I also know that reducing the number of vassal kings is not a bad thing. It can even be said to be a good thing, a very good thing. But you have to know that we have a large number of vassal kings. If we are not careful, I am afraid that something big will happen. Not to mention others, just take Pingxi Wang as an example. He will be the first to be affected and will not agree to it."

"I heard that Miss A Yue wanted to give him two mines as a way of negotiation."

"If it really works, it might be a good start."

Yang Hua pinched Yang Xu's ears and muttered to himself.

Although the two brothers usually just live a life of idleness and waiting for death, they are the sons of the Duke's Mansion, so they naturally have serious matters in their minds.

After hearing this, Yang Xu thought about it and said directly: "If it can really be exchanged, it may not be a bad thing, but I'm afraid it's not that easy, right?"

"I heard that A Yue has already started preparing to go to the southwest. I guess this matter is somewhat certain."

"We still have to go back and discuss this matter with father. It is imperative to reduce the power of the vassal states. We, the Duke's Mansion, cannot stand on the wrong side, don't you think?"

"Yes."

The two looked at each other, then stood up and walked outside together.

Although it looks stagnant on the surface, in fact, everyone has their own little thoughts and the situation is really complicated now.

Royal study room.

Xiao Jingzheng looked at Zhu Yue in disbelief: "Mother, how did you know I wanted to reduce the power of the feudal lords?"

"Because you are a very smart emperor, you will definitely take back the military power and unify the regime."

Zhu Yue spoke frankly, she knew better than anyone how capable her son was.

"Mother...you really understand me." Xiao Jingzheng smiled: "Mother, do you think it's feasible?"
