How could my childhood sweetheart be the current empress?

"Sister went back? Where did she go? When will she be back?"

Xu Xiqian couldn't help but be stunned. She didn't see her sister today. Did her sister already go back?

Facing Qian'er's question, Xu Chengling couldn't help but sigh and said:

"She has returned to the palace and will not be back until New Year's Eve."

"Ah, New Year's Eve, Qian'er, let's count... Isn't it fifteen days before New Year's Eve?"

"Well, she'll be back then."

Xu Chengling nodded. In fact, he didn't know whether his wife would come back to see him.

If she really doesn't come back, then he will have no choice but to go to the palace to snatch her away.

"Well, Qian'er has finally gotten along well with her sister. Qian'er will also go to the temple to ask for a peace amulet for her sister, and wish her a safe return."

As soon as Xu Xiqian finished speaking, she ran away holding the rice paper in her arms.

That's just how she is. She does whatever she thinks of and is surprisingly able to stick to it.

If she could put this talent into studying, she would definitely become a lady from a wealthy family.

After Qian'er left, Xu Chengling walked around the yard casually, and then returned to the bench in the middle of the yard and sat down.

Usually, his wife would sit on this stone bench, scribbling on an account book in her hand, which made him think of the housekeeper.

But if I call her that, she will probably protest strongly.

Speaking of which, he actually noticed that since his wife came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion have become more diligent in their work and are doing things in an orderly manner.

The old windows, walls and other parts were renovated, making the Xiangguo Mansion look like new.

Behind this, there must be the silent contribution of my wife.

"master."

A crisp voice sounded behind him, and a maid walked in.

The maid was holding a golden phoenix hairpin in her hand. Xu Chengling felt that it looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

At this time, the maid said:

"Master, it's just something the lady left for you. She said you can read it when you miss her."

"Okay, I understand. Give it to me."

Xu Chengling nodded, took the phoenix hairpin handed to him by the maid, and put it away carefully.

He remembered, isn't this the phoenix hairpin that the lady wore today? It was brought from the palace by the lady, and it looked very expensive.

The lady left him her phoenix hairpin, probably to give him something to think about.

But the more this happened, the more Xu Chengling was reluctant to let her go.

He began to feel a little regretful. If only he could step forward and hold his wife's hand at that time.

He clearly saw the reluctance in his wife's eyes, but he felt the same way. Xu Chengling finally experienced the pain of separation and his heart was broken.

But fortunately, my wife did not leave and never come back. At least she had made an agreement with me.

On New Year's Eve, the couple reunited on the Yueyang Tower.

In fact, he only needs to wait for fifteen days, and then he will be able to see his wife again.

If she dares not to come, then don't blame him as a husband for being unkind. He will tie her up and take her home and beat her ass.

Thinking of this, Xu Chengling calmed down and tried not to think about his wife anymore.

"My wife is not here, I have to sleep alone tonight..."

Xu Chengling thought to himself that at this time, it would be nice if there was a maidservant to warm his bed.

Besides, since his wife is not around during this period, how can he solve his physiological problems?

As soon as my wife left, all kinds of problems began to arise.

This world practices monogamy and polygamy. A man can only marry one wife, but he can marry multiple concubines.

So there will be a situation where a rich man has several concubines but not a wife, and this person is still a single bachelor.

But in fact, Xu Chengling was very disgusted with this system of monogamy and polygamy.

Of course, he is not a gentleman who must strictly abide by monogamy.

As a man, there is nothing wrong in liking beautiful women. If he can marry several beautiful wives, it means he has the ability.

What he was disgusted with was the status of his wife and concubines. His wife was married in a formal ceremony, so her status in the family was self-evident, but the concubine had almost no status in the family and was only responsible for giving birth to children for her husband.

In Xu Chengling's view, as long as she is his wife, there is no distinction between wives and concubines, and even less distinction between noble and humble.

Why can't it be the first wife, the second wife, or the third wife? They are all wives and their wings, so there won't be any problem then.

If Yan Jixue knew that Xu Chengling started thinking about taking a concubine right after she left, she would probably be so angry that she would run back from the palace and give this playboy a kick.

……

An inconspicuous horse-drawn carriage was driving slowly on the streets of the capital.

Inside the carriage sat a woman dressed in a pink court dress. She had a cold and beautiful face, and her jet-black hair cascaded behind her like a waterfall.

Before they knew it, the carriage had arrived at a sparsely populated place, and taking this shortcut, they could reach the palace faster.

"Xia Chan, do you think he will find other women outside without my knowledge after I leave?"

At this time, Yan Jixue was sitting in the carriage with her eyes closed and resting.

"I don't think the master is that kind of person. Besides, he has already married the most noble woman in the world, Your Majesty, so he naturally won't think about other women."

Xia Chan drove the carriage and replied calmly.

"That's good. What if he finds another woman while I'm away?"

Yan Jixue asked with some concern. She knew Xu Chengling's personality. He was a playboy and would definitely hook up with other women everywhere.

Aren't you satisfied even though you've already married her?

"If the master secretly looks for another woman behind your Majesty's back, then I will help your Majesty break the master's legs, so that he can only rely on your Majesty, right?"

Xia Chan gave her a bad idea.

"Ah."

Xu Chengling, who was far away in the Prime Minister's Mansion, couldn't help but sneeze.

For some reason, he seemed to have an ominous premonition in his heart.

I will update twice today, and will update three times when I get back to my computer desk. By the way, I would like to ask for some monthly votes.

Chapter 84: Left-footed wild goose, long live the right foot

In recent days, the rebels' activities have become more and more rampant, and they have been recruiting people from all over Dayan.

What's worse, some people even went straight to Dayan's imperial capital, the capital, to recruit people.

On a street in the capital, a man in a cloth robe was seen sneaking around. He would grab the person's shoulder and whisper in the person's ear:

"Brother, if you join the Anti-Yan and Restore Qin movement now, you will get a big gift package, including a pair of straw sandals and a bamboo hat. Would you like to consider it?"

"what?"

The person who was pulled was a middle-aged man in rich clothes. When he heard this, his face turned pale. To betray Yan and Qin was an act of treason!

So the man avoided the other party as if he had seen the plague god. Not to mention that he didn't want the so-called preferential gift package, he was a wild goose, so wouldn't he be opposing the wild goose and opposing himself?

Moreover, those who rebel against Yan and Qin will be beheaded!

The rebels of the Former Qin Dynasty are so lawless that they even ran to the capital to recruit people. Are there any laws or rules here?

Seeing that his attempt to win over the man failed, the man in the cloth robe did not give up. Seeing a dandy young man approaching from a distance, he hurried over to grab the man.

"Brother, we are here to help you. Our organization is full of beautiful women. As long as you join us, you can choose any beauty you want."

"Ah? You crazy!"

When the young man heard this, his face turned pale and he ran away very quickly.

You are crazy to rebel against Yan and Qin. Don’t you want a spicy life?

How can this world ever be better? The rebels have come to the emperor to recruit soldiers.

The man in the cloth robe didn't pull in a single person's hand during the whole morning. It seemed that he would not be able to complete his target for today.

There is no way around it. This is the emperor's territory, and they are recruiting people right under the empress's nose.

However, the whole morning had passed and no one from the Heavenly Guards had come to arrest anyone.

The world may be doomed now.

Finally, the hard work paid off. At noon, a man in a black robe looked around and walked out from the corner of the shadow.

"Brother, are you also against Yan and Qin?"

The man in black robe grabbed the hand of the man in cloth robe and whispered something.

"you are?"

The man in the cloth robe turned around and looked at the bearded man in front of him. Judging from his facial features, the other party did not look like a Dayan person, but more like a rough person from the Western Regions.

"Brother, let's fight Yan and Qin. Let's exchange the secret code."

The man suddenly took off his shoes, and the strong smell of foot odor almost made the man in gray robe faint.

The man raised his two feet, with his left foot in the shape of a wild goose and his right foot in the shape of a Qin.

After saying this, the man looked expectantly at the gray-robed man in front of him and said anxiously:

"look at yours."

The man in gray robe nodded and took off his shoes. Four words were also written on his feet.

The only difference is that he has "Wild Goose" written on his left foot and "Long Live" written on his right foot.

"Long live the wild geese?"

When the man saw these four words, he was completely dumbfounded. Why didn’t the code match?

Suddenly, he realized something, his face changed, and he said:

"You are not one of us at all. Who are you?"

"Brothers, come out."

The man in gray robe smiled slightly and clapped his hands. Then more than a dozen people in official uniforms came out from all directions and surrounded the rebel.

The man took off his grey robe, revealing the official uniform with fish pattern underneath, which was the uniform of the Astronomical Supervisor.

"This is called sting operation, understand?"

The man raised his lips slightly and ordered his men to capture the rebel.

"Fuck you, the government officials are actually stinging to enforce the law, do they have any shame?"

Seeing this, the rebel man finally couldn't help but curse.

Originally they were hiding in the capital, secretly expanding the size of the rebellion, but what happened is that the government officials actually used the identities of the rebels to fish for them. This is too shameless.

"You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court."

As he spoke, the man put on his grey robe again and ordered his men:

"Drag him away and interrogate him thoroughly. We must uncover all the traitors lurking in the capital!"

After saying this, the man moved to another place and asked people passing by:

"Brother, do you want to revolt against Yan and restore Qin?"

Today is another day of fishing enforcement.

After that, more small rebel leaders were arrested one after another, and the rebels, who had been very rampant, gradually calmed down, for fear that anyone they picked up on the street might be a government detective.

As for this method of fishing enforcement, it was actually thought up by Your Majesty.
