After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 221: Sharing what you have! Some things cannot be investigated in depth!

【After hearing the word husband. 】

【Chen Huaixin was stunned.】

[The same is true for Ji Changxi. ]

【certainly. 】

[They are not fools.]

【After combining the strange things that happened to me. 】

【They reacted immediately! 】

【"turn out to be."】

“That dream.”

[“Isn’t it unique to me?”]

[“Or is that what happened?”]

【Many thoughts flashed through Chen Huaixin's mind.】

[Using the knowledge in my mind to explain, it is probably something like parallel time and space, or past and future lives, or quantum mechanics.]

【Anyway, anyway.】

【Ji Changluo's words.】

【Let Chen Huaixin understand. 】

[Why did I get close to Ji Changxi, and why did Ji Changxi let me, the man who was planning to kidnap her, take her with me to escape from Chang'an City! ]

【Dreams affect reality! 】

【Even if only a little. 】

[It will also cause a change in the subconscious mind! ]

【"so."】

[“I will trust her.”]

[“And she…”]

[“That’s right!”]

【Chen Huaixin looked at Ji Changxi.】

【Ji Changxi was also looking at him. 】

【As for Ji Changluo. 】

[After she said the word "husband", she realized what a foolish thing she had done. This was not a dream. She was now the third princess who had not yet married. She... didn't have a husband!!!]

[Ji Changluo shyly ran back to the house and threw himself on the bed.]

[And Chen Huaixin was exchanging information with Ji Changxi! ]

【at last. 】

【Chen Huaixin sighed.】

【"pity."】

[“We all cannot remember what happened in our dreams.”]

[“I can only know a few impressive things.”]

【"otherwise."】

[“It will be easier to face what’s going to happen in the future!”]

【Chen Huaixin said.】

【And when he asked. 】

[What Ji Changxi remembered most was that she looked at him with a hint of weirdness, and then she said calmly: "I gave birth to a daughter for you."]

【“…”】

[“The matter of childbirth is something that people will remember deeply, but the me now is not the me in the dream. Also, the me in the dream marrying you does not mean the me now will do the same. That... is just a dream.”]

[Ji Changxi said this.]

【Chen Huaixin also thought so.】

[Dreams do change some of their views, but they will not develop completely according to the relationships in the dreams.]

[Otherwise, do they listen to their dreams or to their own hearts? ! ]

“I still remember.”

[“In my dream, you taught me a lot of knowledge.”]

[“How about this, let’s change the terms of the deal.”]

[“You teach me knowledge, and I will help you escape from Chang’an City. After that, you don’t need to take me with you. After I have taught you the knowledge, I will take my sister with me. What do you think?”]

【Ji Changxi looked at Chen Huaixin. 】

【Chen Huaixin didn’t refuse.】

[And this kind of interest relationship will also make Ji Changxi work harder to help him leave this city. ]

【only.】

【Wait until evening.】

【When he wanted to find a room to rest. 】

Ji Changxi suddenly stopped him and said, "You can only rest in the inner courtyard, because those guards dare not step into here without my order. You will not be discovered here!"

【This is indeed true. 】

[It’s just that the inner courtyard is not that big. ]

【Chen Huaixin is considering which room to choose. 】

[Ji Changxi continued: "Why don't you stay in the same room with me? It will be safer this way. There may be maids coming in and out of the inner courtyard, but no one will dare to come into my room!"]

【“…”】

[“Although we were in that kind of relationship in the dream, we are still innocent now. Is it not good for me to go into your house and rest like this?”]

【Chen Huaixin looked at Ji Changxi in a somewhat strange way.】

【But Ji Changxi's expression turned serious. 】

[“It’s okay.”]

[“You and I have a clear conscience and keep our innocence.”]

【"and."】

[“You impart knowledge to me, so you are naturally my teacher.”]

[“As a student, I must take good care of you.”]

【Ji Changxi looked at him.】

[Her already beautiful face suddenly broke into a smile.]

【"but."】

[“I don’t really like the title of teacher.”]

[“Otherwise I shall call you…”]

【"gentlemen?!"】

……

In the mansion.

Looking at the deduced picture.

Ji Changning was a little surprised.

"As expected of Chen Huaixin."

"As expected of the Fourth Imperial Sister."

“Not only was we aware of what was happening right away.”

“And I was able to accept what happened right away.”

"And won't waste too much time in a place like this!"

Ji Changning spoke.

She thought.

After the third princess said the word "husband".

It may take them some time to understand what is happening.

But they can share their experiences with each other just by combining the strange things that happened to them!

This efficiency.

Perhaps it is also the key to Yuguo's development to that peak? !

"but."

“That was just the peak of the past.”

"Although I only have vague memories of Chen Huaixin and the Fourth Imperial Sister in the deduction."

"But it will definitely allow the new Yu Kingdom to climb to a peak even higher than before!"

Ji Changning is very convinced of this.

after all.

Judging from the current situation.

It was not difficult for Chen Huaixin to use Ji Changxi to leave the martial law-bound Chang'an City.

All we need to do is leave Chang'an City and spend a few years to build a strong enough team.

The Cheng Kingdom...is already on the verge of crumbling!
"but me."

"Again."

"Died at the hands of Chen Huaixin... or rather, died at my own hands!"

Ji Changning let out a long sigh.

But that Ji Changwei next to her.

She looked at the deduced scene with jealousy on her face. When her gaze turned to her Fourth Sister, she couldn't help but curse her in her heart for being shameless!

Since we all feel that the relationship in dreams should not be involved in reality, then why should we stay in the same room!
"Fourth sister."

"Didn't you say that you and Chen Huaixin are teacher and student?"

"How can a teacher and a student... behave like that!"

Ji Changwei wrinkled her nose and was about to cry.

Obviously, she was the first one before, she was the one who came first, and she was Chen Huaixin’s real queen!

But why... did it become like this...

"Don't steal my husband! Fourth Sister!!!"

……

[July, the eleventh year of Yuanhuang.]

[The martial law in Chang'an City lasted for half a month.]

[A large number of prisoners who escaped were captured and taken back to the Dali Temple.]

【but. 】

【Among them. 】

[There is no Chen Huaixin! ]

[Even though the Minister of Justice Qu Wenduan got angry more than once, Chen Huaixin was still nowhere to be seen! ]

【“Is it possible?”】

【“This guy.”】

[“He had already fled Chang’an City?”]

【This thought popped up in Qu Wenduan’s mind.】

【But. 】

【The Chang'an City Wall at night. 】

【The martial law was even stricter than during the day.】

[Even if Chen Huaixin could kill the son of the Marquis of Changtian County, it would be impossible for him to climb over the city wall! ]

[So he must still be in Chang'an City, but no one knows where he is hiding so they can't find him! ]

[“A place that cannot be found by us.”]

【“Or rather.”】

[“In Chang’an.”]

"Where we dare not search."

【“That’s… the only place!”】

[Qu Wenduan looked towards the mansion of the rich and powerful in the distance.]

[Whether it was the residence of an important official or the residence of an aristocratic family, the officers and soldiers did not dare to go there.]

[Even he, the Minister of Justice, didn't dare to easily look for anything in there! ]

【"otherwise."】

[“If you find something you shouldn’t find.”]

[“That’s game over!”]

[Qu Wenduan, who has a close alliance with the noble family, knows all too well how many strange things exist there! ]

[And if Chen Huaixin is hiding inside, then even if they blockade Chang'an City for a year, they won't be able to gain anything! ]

【even.】

[He began to doubt.]

[Is Chen Huaixin a knife from a certain family? ]

【“He was deliberately detained in the Dali Temple.”】

[“Let’s take advantage of the martial law in Chang’an to do something.”]

[“For example, kill the son of the Marquis of Changtian County and teach him a lesson and...a warning!”]

[Qu Wenduan flips through the documents from this period.]

[In addition to recording where the officers and soldiers searched and what they found, it also records how much money the aristocratic families squeezed from the people by taking advantage of the curfew, where people could only enter but not leave!]

[Although martial law is in place, no one can leave Chang'an City. ]

【But for the aristocratic families, their lives have not changed. 】

[If you want to go out of the city, go out of the city. If you want to go home, go home! ]

[On the contrary, the people were unable to leave due to martial law, which affected their livelihoods. Some people had to sell their children, or even themselves, in exchange for the chance for other family members to survive! ]

[Or maybe the whole family starved to death, and then the officers and soldiers who inspected them coldly threw them into a mass grave.]

【certainly. 】

【These things.】

[They will not report this to His Majesty.]

[Because your majesty is looking at the entire Dacheng, these small matters can be handled by their ministers. As long as there is no chaos, or the people who want to create chaos are dealt with before chaos occurs, then the country will naturally be peaceful and the people will be safe! ]

[Don’t talk about the times, don’t talk about the dust, don’t talk about the mountains! ]

[The officials are doing this for the good of their people! Otherwise, if these prisoners were allowed to continue hiding among the people, how many people would be killed again!]

[As for the prisoners who were released, they were locked up because they offended the powerful, so naturally no ordinary people would know about it.]

[As long as the people know that these people are prisoners of the Dali Temple, as long as the people know that the government is protecting them, at least let the people believe that they are protected, at least let the people feel that the government officials have good intentions, that is enough! ]

【“It seems so.”】

【“Chen Huaixin may really be related to the powerful.”】

【"otherwise."】

[“How could we possibly never find him!”]

【Qu Wenduan came to a guess.】

【That's the only way.】

【This can explain why the aristocratic families benefited the most from this martial law.】

[This can explain why the captured prisoner suddenly died.]

【"but."】

【“Half a month.”】

[“They’ve made enough money.”]

[“It’s time to lift martial law.”]

[“The people’s resentment is almost out of control.”]

[“If this continues, I’m afraid His Majesty will notice it!”]

【Qu Wenduan exhaled.】

[While he was thinking about how to resolve the people's grievances, he was selecting information, concealing some of the situations, and then reporting to Ji Qingluo.]

[In his memorial, he first said that he had failed to do his job well and had not been able to capture all the prisoners, but because he was worried that the martial law would affect the livelihood of the people for too long, he begged His Majesty to lift the martial law! ]

[“As for the prisoners who were not captured.”]

【“I am the Ministry of Justice.”】

【“It will just be a little more difficult.”】

【“Send more people to search.”】

【“Try to bring all the criminals to justice!”】

[“If I fail to do my job well, please punish me, Your Majesty!”]

[“But we must not delay the lives of the people!”]

[Qu Wenduan has a compassionate expression for his country and his people. ]

[The Ji Qingluo who was sitting at the top, after all, was born in the military and had never been taught by anyone, so even though he had been the emperor for ten years, he was still not as good as the ministers in some matters.]

[Because this matter involved the livelihood of the people in Chang'an City, she read the memorial carefully and found no problems, so she immediately agreed to Qu Wenduan's request.]

【“The livelihood of the people.”】

【“Nature is more important than anything else.”】

[“Even if martial law is lifted, there will be one or two prisoners who cannot be captured.”]

[“But as long as they no longer affect the people, I will pardon them.”]

[Ji Qingluo still cares about the people. ]

【only.】

【When martial law is lifted. 】

【That is circulated among the people. 】

[It is the name of the Minister of Justice Qu Wenduan.]

[It was precisely because of his keen observation that he discovered that the martial law in Chang'an had caused many people to live in poverty, and some people would be oppressed by evil officials.]

[So he would rather let the prisoners go, would rather risk being punished by His Majesty, and beg for the lifting of martial law! ]

[As for those evil officials who appeared during the martial law, the officers and soldiers who caused dissatisfaction among the people, he also picked them out and killed them to appease the people's grievances! ]

【Suddenly.】

[The public cheered.]

[The people all praised the Minister of Justice for his high moral character and integrity.]

[Even though some of the officers and soldiers who were punished were from the Ministry of Justice, he still killed them to prove the law! ]

[The dissatisfaction caused by the martial law has gradually subsided. ]

[When Ji Changxi informed Chen Huaixin in the inner courtyard about this matter. ]

【Chen Huaixin's face was calm.】

[“Whenever public grievances are boiling over and about to get out of control.”]

[“There will always be a wise master who will appear and punish the evil officials who oppress the people, so that the people will be happy and their grievances will be calmed.”]

[“But no one ever cares why the people are so angry, and why the master can always accurately and quickly find out which evil official is oppressing the people.”]

[“Because some things…cannot be investigated in depth.”]
