Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

So giving them a chance to escape to the north will make them feel that they still have hope, and the opposing forces in the south will not be so strong.

This group of people believes they are not yet at their wits' end and may even support the North in fighting the South.

“I hope those pedantic scholars and profit-driven merchants will all flee to the north and make the situation there even worse and more chaotic. That would be a good thing for us.”

Yuan Shen smiled, hugged the person in front of him, and kissed him.

“My wife is very clever. This is good. We will live in the south for the next few years, and when the time is right, we will take control of the north.”

After that, Tang Yu went to see the captured crown prince, which was the first time she had ever met him.

"who are you?"

The Crown Prince had never met Tang Yu, but he knew Tang Yu's name.

After all, the leader of the rebels was a woman, and everyone in the world already knew that.

"I am Yuan Yuanyu, the rebel leader whom your Zhu family royal family hates to the bone. Otherwise, do you think the Crown Prince would send a woman to comfort and serve you at this time?"

As soon as Tang Yu uttered these mocking words, the Crown Prince's face instantly darkened.

"Traitorous scoundrel! You are but a woman, yet you dare to defy your superiors, plot rebellion, plunge the people into war, and cause immense suffering. Such evil deeds are intolerable to Heaven!"

As the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, even though I am imprisoned today, I will never bow down to a woman like you.

You think you can humiliate me by imprisoning me? You're delusional!

Tang Yu chuckled.

"Don't be too narcissistic. I'm rebelling against your Zhu family and will ruin the luxurious lives of your descendants. You're perfectly justified in criticizing me, after all, I'm going to take away your livelihood and destroy your family's imperial power."

You keep talking about how the world's people are plunged into war and how countless lives are lost. Don't you feel ashamed?

The people of the South have rebelled with me because the Zhu family's taxes are too heavy, causing them to suffer from hunger and cold. They have to sell their fields, land, and even their children, and they can no longer make a living.

Now they're finally living a good life, and things will only get better from here on out.

These sarcastic remarks made the crown prince's face even uglier.

"You are nothing but a traitor and rebel. Under the clear sky, you dare to stir up trouble and attempt to overthrow the orthodoxy."

I won't stoop to your level. Your attempt to wreak havoc on the world as a woman is utterly immoral and morally reversible!

Your wicked deeds will surely anger the heavens and bring about utter destruction!

These words amused Tang Yu. He spoke with righteous indignation, but in reality, he had just activated his curse mode, which was simply the impotent rage of a loser.

"I thought the crown prince of a country would have some knowledge, but I didn't expect him to be such an incompetent and shallow person! I have wasted my time today."

Do you think "traitor" is an insult to me? No, it's a compliment.

I believe that rebellion is justified and without guilt, and I hope that everyone in the world will follow my example in the future.

But I won't kill you, because to people like you, it seems like dying innocently for your country is quite noble. I want you to live well.

The crown prince looked shocked.

"What do you want to do?"

“Locking you up here and feeding and watering you every day is a waste of food for me.”

So from now on, you'll be working in the fields every day, weaving cloth, cooking, repairing roads, and working on irrigation systems, just like ordinary people. Don't even think about suicide; I won't give you the chance.

The crown prince had just tried to bite his tongue to commit suicide, but found that he couldn't do it at all. He looked at Tang Yu with a terrified expression.

"You want to humiliate me?"

"Humiliation? The things that used to support your Zhu family and the common people were now being made to do them every day, and you feel humiliated?"

Are the meals you eat in the palace made from grain grown by ordinary people? Are the clothes you wear made from cloth woven by ordinary people?

I'm just letting you experience the life of an ordinary person, and it's like I'm killing you. It's ridiculous.

After saying this, Tang Yu turned and left.

She had absolutely no interest in talking to someone with such a stupid and empty mind.

Shortly after the New Year, Yuan Shen's mother, Jiang Huisun, personally visited Tang Yu.

"Auntie specifically chose the time when Yantang was out training the soldiers. Is there something you need to tell me privately?"

Jiang Huisun looked embarrassed, but still spoke up.

"I can see that you two have a good relationship, and I'm not the kind of wicked mother-in-law who would say something unpleasant."

I just think that Yantang is really going too far. You two eat and live together every day, and everyone assumes you're husband and wife.

But the wedding hasn't happened yet, so shouldn't we at least have a proper wedding ceremony?

Upon hearing this, Tang Yu finally understood the reason for the other party's embarrassment.

In Jiang Huisun's view, this was her son's fault, so how could he not give the woman a wedding?

According to current standards of female chastity, premarital cohabitation is considered utterly immoral.

However, since Tang Yu and Yuan Shen were directly the leaders of the army, no one cared about such things.

However, Jiang Huisun was, after all, a woman who had received the education of women in that era, so she thought it was very inappropriate.

"I understand what Auntie means. Yantang and I trust each other. There are some things that outsiders don't understand."

But neither of us has ever doubted each other's sincerity, and I will discuss this matter with him.

Since the two had already held a wedding once, neither Yuan Shen nor Tang Yu felt the need to hold another one.

However, it does seem inappropriate to outsiders.

After that, we'll find some time to resolve this matter; it's simply a matter of making things legitimate in front of the world.

Jiang Huisun smiled with relief; this was a major concern for her.

After recounting this matter, Jiang Huisun also inquired with interest about the female soldiers and doctors in the army, as well as the female officials in the newly established regime in the south.

"I learned martial arts with my brother from a young age, but in the end I could only marry a nobleman of equal social standing and become a mistress in the inner quarters."

But in the past six months, I've seen many women living different lives, and I thought it was only young women like you who had this opportunity.

But when I saw some people around my age, some of whom were also in government positions, I suddenly wanted to do something too.

At that moment, Tang Yu understood Jiang Huisun's thoughts.

"Auntie, power must be fought for and seized by yourself; you can't wait for it to be handed to you."

You are skilled in martial arts, literate and arithmetic; you have the potential to rise to high office. I hope you can make the most of your talents.

"Many departments here are short of officials, Auntie can choose a suitable place to go..."

When Yuan Shen returned in the evening, Tang Yu told him what had happened during the day.

"That's good. I've said before that my mother's abilities shouldn't be confined to the inner courtyard of our house. Her knowledge and abilities should have a much wider scope."

I know some of you haven't seen the plot, so I'll give you another point to criticize: it turns out that the emperor was initially weak, so he taught the empress politics, and her abilities surpassed those of the emperor.

So the emperor became wary and planned to have the empress buried alive with him after his death. The empress overheard this, which ultimately led to her rebellion. Hahaha!

Chapter 18 Yuan Shen and Song Mo (Completed)

"I quite like the wedding dresses of this era."

The couple held a grand wedding after the New Year, and Yuan Shen, dressed in a red wedding gown, exclaimed in admiration.

"I'm really curious to see what you'll look like with short hair and in sportswear."

As soon as Tang Yu said this, Yuan Shen laughed.

"After we conquer the world, I'll cut my hair and show you. Anyway, we're going to break all those rules and regulations."

Tang Yu hugged the other person and chuckled softly.

“Good vision, you have already done so much for me, it’s alright.”

Yuan Shen has lived to his third generation. The family, fame, and fortune he once valued are no longer important to him.

Anyway, a thousand years later, a branch of the Yuan family became bandits, and he also became a member of another family.

So, what is there that we can't see through?

"It's not a sacrifice, and I think many men would also find short hair convenient."

Tang Yu thought for a moment, then pressed Yuan Shen down and kissed him.

"Then I'll go with you to get your hair cut from now on."

"Madam must look beautiful with short hair too. Great! From now on, let's keep doing some unconventional things."

Anyway, we're not going to raise children in this life, and we'll all be together when we die, so there's no need to worry about our descendants being held accountable.

Many people involved in politics are hampered by the fear of being purged by their political enemies and their descendants after their death.

However, Yuan Shen and Tang Yu had already decided that they would only ever have each other in this life, and having children would only cause more trouble.

"Tomorrow I'll take you to do lots of crazy things."

Now that you're in charge, isn't it easy for you to give yourself a break?

Moreover, the north has been terrified of being attacked, and they are now just praying that the south will be quiet for the time being, and they will not launch any proactive attacks.

"We'll talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. Today I'm the groom, so I should enjoy my wedding night."

After saying this, Yuan Shen pulled the person off him and gently entangled him, sucking and licking as if trying to absorb all the sweetness.

Tang Yu let out a soft moan, wrapped her arms tightly around Yuan Shen's neck, and responded passionately, her body trembling slightly.

"Will you bite me again next time you see me, Madam?"

His burning lips slowly moved down Tang Yu's cheek, across her chin, and gently kissed her fair neck, leaving a trail of delicate yet fiery kisses.

Tang Yu glared at the person in front of her because of this question.

Do you think I should have restored your memory immediately that day?

"No, I like your passion, so I'd like you to be a little more passionate tonight."

Tang Yu immediately thought of Yuan Shen's quirks and blushed.
