The atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.

Two peerless fairies, each in their own age.

At this time, they did the same thing.

After discovering the other party's little movements.

Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang did not stop immediately.

Instead, it seemed like a competition had begun.

They increased the strength of their feet respectively.

"Hiss..." Xu Wuchen, the person involved, couldn't help but gasp.

It’s bad enough that these two women are competing with each other, but why are they taking it out on me?

However, being stepped on by the jade feet of two peerless fairies at the same time is, to some extent, quite enjoyable.

"No wonder the Imperial Master looked a little strange before. It turns out that the Empress likes this kind of little game?" Gu Qinghan's flawless face showed a hint of amusement. He glanced at Luo Yaoguang who was sitting beside him and smiled, "It seems that Her Majesty the Empress has grown up a lot. This is a bit surprising."

Before, Gu Qinghan had always suspected that Xu Wuchen and Luo Yaoguang might be doing something.

Now it seems that it turned out to be just as she expected.

It turns out that the empress is so busy with official duties every day.

Even with such arduous official duties, the empress never slacked off.

There are probably only a handful of emperors who were diligent to this extent.

Even as an imperial teacher, I couldn't help but feel admiration and pity for the empress.

However, this discovery made Gu Qinghan even more unhappy.

Xu Wuchen kept saying that he was overworked with her affairs.

She studied the Taoist Canon that she gave to Xu Wuchen every day.

But Xu Wuchen is such a busy guy, isn't he?!

He actually has the leisure time to study these things with the empress every day.

It really makes people feel a little unhappy.

"Humph! I should be free to do whatever I like, right? When did I need the Imperial Master to worry about me?" Hearing Gu Qinghan's words, Luo Yaoguang's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and she said unkindly, "On the contrary, when did the Imperial Master play this kind of game with the Imperial Master?"

After saying this, Luo Yaoguang slowly glanced at Xu Wuchen.

There was a hint of chilliness in the phoenix eyes that were as cold and clear as a mirror.

Obviously, he was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Wuchen's current situation.

Just now, she felt that Xu Wuchen's behavior was a little abnormal.

It turns out now that Xu Wuchen actually has some unclear relationship with Gu Qinghan.

It was clearly me who got to know Xu Wuchen first, and I was also the one who made the agreement with Xu Wuchen first.

What does it mean that Gu Qinghan suddenly appears now? !

"I was just a little bored just now, and wanted to play a little game with the Imperial Master. But from what the Empress said, it seems that I have been playing this little game with the Imperial Master a long time ago? Could it be the day when I invited the Imperial Master to visit the Taoist temple last time?" Hearing the Empress' words, Gu Qinghan's peach blossom eyes flashed with a hint of realization, and then he glanced at Xu Wuchen, smiled at the Empress and said, "Your Majesty is really unexpected, I thought your Majesty's heart had already been frozen in the jade pot."

At this time, Gu Qinghan confirmed it.

The reason why Xu Wuchen arrived so late that day was because he and the empress were busy with state affairs and handling official business.

The empress is preparing to collect public grain.

After all, only by handing over Xu Wuchen's public grain first, will those aristocratic families obediently give up their own interests to fill the treasury of the Daqian Dynasty.

It seems that Her Majesty the Empress has not been careless during this period, and has been preparing to weaken the aristocratic families and the civil service group.

"Well...Compared to these things, I feel it would be better to first study specifically how to deal with these aristocratic families and civil service groups? After all, they are the most harmful to our Daqian Dynasty." Seeing that Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang were somewhat confrontational, and even brought harm to himself, Xu Wuchen felt it necessary to let the two women put aside their prejudices temporarily.

Target their common enemy first.

We must not do things that would make our loved ones sad and our enemies happy.

"Imperial Master, I want to ask you, didn't you say just now that you couldn't handle my reward? Why? Do you think you can handle the Imperial Master's reward?" Hearing Xu Wuchen's words, Luo Yaoguang, who was originally a little unhappy, looked at Xu Wuchen with a kind look and asked with a smile, "Or, Imperial Master, your digestive ability is relatively strong, so you can handle it so quickly?"

After saying this, Luo Yaoguang seemed to vent her anger by pinching Xu Wuchen hard with her jade feet.

It was as if she wanted to vent her unhappiness about Xu Wuchen and Gu Qinghan carrying her on their backs and the growing unhappiness of their relationship.

Feel the pain and dissatisfaction in the empress's heart.

Xu Wuchen couldn't help but frowned slightly, and could only bite the bullet and say: "This is naturally not a reward from the Imperial Master. It's better to say that now the Empress and the Imperial Master seem to want to punish me."

Xu Wuchen discovered that women were indeed the most difficult to reason with.

I am a victim, how can I become the wrong party for no reason?

Not only did these two women bully me in private, but now they want to shift the blame to me.

"Humph! For an unruly man like you, of course I have to punish him severely!" Hearing Xu Wuchen's words, Luo Yaoguang narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Xu Wuchen with a playful look and said, "I would like to know, in your opinion, is my punishment more satisfactory to you, or is the punishment of the national teacher more satisfactory to you?"

I saw that Xu Wuchen looked a little depressed.

This made Luo Yaoguang, who was originally in a somewhat unhappy mood, feel much better.

After all, Xu Wuchen always made her feel uncomfortable, so naturally she had to make Xu Wuchen feel uncomfortable to feel better.

Otherwise, she would be the only one suffering, which would make her, the empress, seem too incompetent!

"Yes, I am also a little curious. Does the Imperial Master prefer the punishment from Her Majesty the Empress, or does he prefer my reward?" Hearing Luo Yaoguang's words, Gu Qinghan looked at Xu Wuchen with his affectionate peach blossom eyes and asked with a smile, "Or is it that you really can't tell who is better between the two of us?"

After saying this, Gu Qinghan seemed to want Xu Wuchen to think carefully about the consequences of his answer.

The jade feet exerted a little force, causing Xu Wuchen's scalp to tingle.

A strange emotion rushed into my brain.

"Hiss..." Hearing the questions from Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang, Xu Wuchen felt his scalp tingling.

Gan!

Isn't this a pure death-giving question? !

I'm afraid that no matter how he answers, neither of them will be satisfied.

In other words, there is no answer to this question at all!

No matter which one Xu Wuchen praises, the other one will not be satisfied.

And if Xu Wuchen said that the two of them were similar - "I feel that the rewards of Her Majesty the Empress and the Imperial Master are both very good. Now, shouldn't we first consider how to solve the problem of the aristocratic families and the civil service group?"

Xu Wuchen gritted his teeth and took a look at Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang who were secretly competing with each other, and asked with some embarrassment.

After all, for Xu Wuchen, this problem was really too difficult.

Even if he asked himself, Xu Wuchen found it difficult to make a judgment.

It’s just because it’s really hard to tell who’s better between Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang.

Whether it is their identities and status, appearance, or temperament.

What the two of them did brought a huge impact to themselves.

At the same time, both of them have fair skin and beautiful figure, making it difficult to choose between them.

"No! I am not satisfied with this answer!" After hearing Xu Wuchen's answer, Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang said in unison.

Obviously, Xu Wuchen's answer, which did not offend anyone, could not satisfy Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang at all.

Now the two of them seem to be determined to compete with each other.

I must make sure Xu Wuchen is the better of the two of them.

But for Xu Wuchen, this was too difficult.

They both make it difficult to choose between them.

Even if Xu Wuchen's life was at stake, it would be difficult for him to make a choice between the two of them.

"Since you two want to make a decision so badly, why not see whose reward satisfies me first?" Seeing the looks of Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang, Xu Wuchen frowned and could only say softly, "This should be the fairest, right?"

"Huh?! Interesting! Imperial Master, do you have any objection?" After hearing Xu Wuchen's words, Luo Yaoguang looked at Gu Qinghan with some pride and asked with great disdain, "I don't want you to say that I bullied you after you lose."

In Luo Yaoguang's opinion, it is not easy to give Xu Wuchen a reward that will satisfy him.

After all, she has rewarded Xu Wuchen a lot these days.

For the stability of the Daqian Dynasty, Xu Wuchen put forward one insightful idea after another, which provided considerable help to the empress.

Therefore, Luo Yaoguang has always regarded Xu Wuchen as the most loyal and meritorious minister of the Daqian Dynasty.

In this situation, Luo Yaoguang didn't believe that Gu Qinghan could defeat her!

"Of course you can. After all, I always like to challenge difficulties. But if Your Majesty the Empress loses later, don't regret it or be unwilling to admit defeat." Hearing Luo Yaoguang's words, Gu Qinghan said calmly with a hint of complacency between his brows.

Although Gu Qinghan didn't know Xu Wuchen's preferences.

But I can still guess a little bit.

It doesn't seem to be difficult to give a reward that will satisfy Xu Wuchen.

What's more, Gu Qinghan has always been extremely confident in his appearance and temperament.

Especially when Xu Wuchen looked at her, there was always a bit of disrespect in his eyes for the goddess.

So Gu Qinghan believed that he still had a good chance of winning.

"In that case, I will be disrespectful to refuse. I will suffer a little loss." Hearing Gu Qinghan's words, Luo Yaoguang narrowed her eyes and said to Xu Wuchen with a hint of mischief.

"Emperor Master, in your opinion, after the disaster relief is resolved, how should we deal with those aristocratic families and civil servants? Although these aristocratic families have been weakened to the greatest extent through the efforts of Taizu, their existence will always be a thorn in the side of my Daqian Dynasty, so I intend to use thundering means to completely eradicate them. What do you think?"

These aristocratic families and civil service groups were a huge headache for Taizu, the late emperor, and Luo Yaoguang.

This is simply because these aristocratic families hold a considerable power.

Especially when they gather together, they are actually a very powerful force.

What is particularly important is that this aristocratic family controls a lot of territory. In their own territory, they are like local tyrants.

They also concentrated the finances of the Daqian Dynasty in their own hands and circumvented them through various laws.

He stole all the taxes that originally belonged to the Daqian Dynasty into his own hands, which brought tremendous pressure to the finances of the Daqian Dynasty.

Therefore, these aristocratic families and civil service groups have always been a thorn in the side of the royal family of the Daqian Dynasty, even more than that of the vassal kings.

"Hmm..." Feeling the empress's determination to use severe punishment, Xu Wuchen couldn't help but frowned slightly, and felt a huge pressure coming, especially when he saw Gu Qinghan's eyes that were faintly threatening and suggestive. Xu Wuchen felt the pressure was huge, and he could only hold his breath and concentrate, saying lightly, "In fact, how to deal with the aristocratic families is a simple matter. These aristocratic families and sects are the same, they are just local tyrants in some small places. As long as Her Majesty is determined enough to deal with them, it is still very easy."

"All it takes is someone who is willing to take the blame for Her Majesty the Empress, and the aristocratic families can be easily eradicated even after a period of pain. Although it may bring turmoil to the dynasty in the short term, it will not hurt the foundation. Moreover, after all the aristocratic families are eradicated, the only thing left to worry about is the civil service group."

The aristocratic families of the Daqian Dynasty were actually dealt with by Taizu.

The force that remains is not that great.

In comparison, these civil service groups are more difficult to deal with.

After all, every civil servant has fame and privileges.

These privileges are the root cause of the current miserable life of the people in the Daqian Dynasty.

If it only affects the aristocratic families, the impact is not that great.

"Then in the Emperor's opinion, who is the most suitable candidate?" Hearing Xu Wuchen's words, Luo Yaoguang looked at Xu Wuchen with some curiosity and asked.

"Of course it's King Beili! Huh..." Xu Wuchen said without hesitation, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.

The reason why Xu Wuchen pushed his father forward was not only because his father was the most suitable candidate without any interests or forces involved, but he also wanted to make his father the target of public criticism so as to reduce the suspicion of the empress.

After all, even if the relationship between him and the empress really developed in that aspect, he still had to be careful to avoid suspicion.

Otherwise, what if the empress simply kills her own father?

The most ruthless imperial family.

"You are worthy of being the Emperor's Teacher. I admit defeat to you." Upon hearing Xu Wuchen's idea, Gu Qinghan's flawless and beautiful face showed a smile that could charm everyone and she looked at Xu Wuchen, and at the same time regained control of Xu Wuchen.

"Ha... Master, you are too kind." Seeing the woman in front of him who was detached from the world praising him like this, Xu Wuchen felt a little elated and a little complacent at the same time.

After all, I am probably the only one who can be so admired by these two peerless women, Gu Qinghan and Luo Yaoguang.

As for the dignitaries in the court, all they do is pursue their own selfish interests.

Naturally, she was not in the eyes of either the empress or the imperial teacher.
