That night, the two of them pondered for more than an hour but did not come up with an ideal plan, seeing that the night was late, Emperor Guangen, who was worried about Shen Xizhen's body, hurriedly pulled her up and went to the inner room.

Carefully put her on the bed, and then put down the curtain, he reached out and put his arm around her waist and said, "The queen should rest early, let's continue to think about it tomorrow, there will always be a way." ”

"Uh-huh." Shen Xizhen also felt that his sleepiness was getting stronger and stronger, so he obediently closed his eyes.

After a while, I fell asleep.

But in her dreams, she was thinking about it.

It's really a dream day and night!

Tossing and turning over a few times, Shen Xizhen suddenly felt the strength of the arm around her.

"Queen, don't turn over again." Emperor Guangen's deep voice came from behind her.

"Aren't you asleep?" Shen Xizhen was startled and hurriedly asked.

"I fell asleep before, and then I woke up again." Emperor Guangen said.

"Oh, the concubine won't turn over, your majesty, sleep well." Shen Xizhen obediently lay still.

But I found that I didn't feel sleepy.

I had to close my eyes and think about things there.

Who knew that the voice of Emperor Guangen came again: "The queen still can't sleep?" ”

Shen Xizhen was taken aback, and suddenly felt a little guilty in his heart.

It seems that he really knows her and pays attention to her, and even when she has her eyes closed, he can guess that she is not asleep.

"Your Majesty, the concubine still can't deceive you if she lies motionless, you really ......" She suddenly couldn't find a suitable adjective.

"What is it?" Emperor Guangen smiled slightly, and gently turned his head to face her and asked.

Since a small lamp was lit outside the curtain, Emperor Guangen could see her faint outline. And Shen Xizhen can also see him.

His expression seemed so gentle, just like his gaze.

It's night. His gaze and look would be so gentle.

That's for her, that's just for her—gentleness.

Shen Xizhen was suddenly moved. She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around his neck, saying, "You are really sweet, as if you can understand the concubine's qiē." ”

Emperor Guangen turned over and pressed her under him, and thinking that she was pregnant now, he supported his upper body with one hand and deftly removed her clothes with the other.

Soon, the two were caught up in a whirlwind from gentle to intense.

After the storm was over, Shen Xizhen quickly fell asleep.

When I wake up, I can't help but ask myself, "Is it impossible to sleep without his comfort?" ”

The answer seems to be yes.

It seems that he is becoming more and more dependent on him.

And he apparently is, too.

It's a good feeling of being connected and physically attached!

After getting up, Shen Xizhen quickly thought of the problem that bothered him yesterday, and hurriedly said to Emperor Guangen: "Your Majesty, the concubine has thought of a solution. ”

"Really?" Emperor Guangen hurriedly sat down next to her. Wait for her to continue.

"If we want the children to avoid bloodshed on the succession to the throne in the future, it is better to establish a system of auxiliaries, that is, a group of respected and discerning ministers to vote on them, although the result of this vote is not to directly determine the succession to the throne, but it can have 40% of the decision, what do you think?"

"Well, this quota is appropriate, and then we can select a group of qualified people from among the ministers to participate in the auxiliary election." Emperor Guangen said.

"Yes, these candidates can also be selected from think tanks or private people."

Emperor Guangen immediately nodded approvingly at her and said, "The queen is wise, and the people are the people who the monarch will ultimately serve." The opinions that can be obtained from the people are always the most true. ”

"Well, it's best for the personnel of this auxiliary system to be people from various fields, only in this way can we synthesize the opinions of different people and different angles as much as possible, and those who can pass the assessment of such a group of people can basically conclude that they have the ability to govern the country." Shen Xizhen said with a smile.

Emperor Guangen smiled and nodded. Holding Shen Xizhen's hand, he said, "Empress, you have worked hard all these years, and the total number of articles you proposed to Xi Guo is estimated to be no less than 100, right?" Each of them can bring great benefits to the people of Xiguo. Sometimes I really think that you are an immortal sent by Heaven to help us. ”

Shen Xizhen sneered: "The emperor has won the award, although what the concubine has done seems to be for the country." In fact, it is for yourself. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Emperor Guangen immediately asked.

"To build up your prestige." Shen Xizhen replied with a smile, of course she couldn't say that it was to complete the task of crossing over.

Emperor Guangen proposed the cabinet auxiliary system in the court. It caused an uproar among the ministers.

Is this tantamount to handing over the future monarch to everyone to oversee?

Although everyone sometimes thinks that it is too autocratic, but because it is a rule that has been used for thousands of years, everyone does not feel that it needs to be changed, but now that even the decision-making power of selecting the future monarch is willing to be delegated to the subjects, it can be seen that Emperor Guangen really wants to govern the Xi Kingdom well, rather than just trying to make his descendants rich and prosperous.

That's why he supports such an election method.

Everyone was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that this mention was very happy, so there were very few voices of opposition in the court.

In this way, Emperor Guangen immediately established this system, and intensively recruited the decision-makers of the cabinet auxiliary system.

Half a month later, the personnel were selected.

Emperor Guang'en also added the requirement that the members of this electoral system be selected every six months in order to ensure that every member of the system is worthy of the position.

As soon as this matter was implemented, Emperor Guangen and Shen Xizhen's hearts suddenly settled down a lot.

At least this will minimize the need for bloodshed in the future.

In order to ensure the personal safety of the members of this system, each of them will serve there for half a year or even in the future, or the right to avoid death, and the gold medal will be awarded by Emperor Guangen himself.

No one else dared to provoke this group.

Autumn is here in the blink of an eye.

By this time, the expansion of the palace had been completed.

Shen Xizhen's third child was born one evening, a daughter, named Chu Lingyu by Emperor Guangen, and called Princess Changrun.

It was very smooth when it was produced.

This is something that Shen Xizhen did not expect.

Because she was tortured in the first two years.

"Your Majesty, it's a girl, are you happy?" Shen Xizhen asked Emperor Guangen.

Although she doesn't have patriarchal thoughts, after all, Emperor Guangen has to think about the future heir, so she also has to think about it from his point of view.

"Of course I'm happy, as long as you are born for me, I like it both men and women." Emperor Guangen stroked her head and said.

Shen Xizhen smiled and kissed his hand. (To be continued......)
