The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

Two years later, the world was at peace and the four seas were united.

The new emperor's surname is Shen, given name Yanzheng, courtesy name Chongde, and he was formerly the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

The common people don't care who sits on the throne; they only know that under the current emperor's rule, the government is efficient, taxes are light, and the people are allowed to rest.

Naturally, he believed that the man lived up to his name and was indeed a virtuous person.

Chang Ning sat in the courtyard, chin in hand, lost in thought for the entire afternoon. Wei Wufeng shoved his son into her arms and looked at her warily: "You're not still thinking about that person, are you?"

"Let me tell you, don't even think about those things, you're not destined for that!"

The chubby three-year-old was quite heavy, so Chang Ning told her son to go play by himself and glared at Wei Wufeng: "You're so annoying!"

She was just feeling a bit sentimental; she didn't think much of it.

She used to dare to ask for this and that, but now that he's the emperor, she doesn't have the guts to approach him anymore. Is she afraid she won't die fast enough?

"I'm annoyed?"

Wei Wufeng snorted coldly and picked up Xiao Jingzhe, who was running around nearby: "Good son, call me Dad!"

Little Jingzhe grinned and said, "Daddy, lift me up high!"

Wei Wufeng lifted him up, and Xiao Jingzhe giggled and cried, "Mother, Mother, look!"

When Chang Ning looked at him, his laughter turned into a series of claps, fluttering and thrashing in the air.

The child lacked energy and became sleepy after playing for a while. Wei Wufeng carried Xiao Jingzhe inside and only came out after seeing that he was fast asleep. They moved back to their original village and lived in the same farmhouse.

The goose, which had been a stray for two years, was still alive and well. After they returned, it rejoined the family. At that moment, it was honking as it walked in from outside the yard, and with its mouth open, it spat out a fish. Chang Ning stroked the goose's head and praised it, "Big White is so amazing!"

Wei Wufeng scoffed, suspecting that his son had learned to laugh like that from the goose.

He put the fish into the kitchen, and seeing that she was still playing with the goose, he walked over and suddenly bent down to kiss her on the cheek.

Chang Ning froze, a blush gradually spreading across her face: "What are you doing!"

Wei Wufeng leaned closer: "Just a reminder, the three-year period is up!"

Their breaths were almost touching; they could even see each other's reflections in their pupils. Chang Ning turned her head away, her fair ears turning red, and after a long while, she slowly uttered a single word: "Oh."

"Oh what? You're trying to back out?"

In the past three years, apart from not having a wedding ceremony and not performing the rites of marriage, the two have been no different from a normal married couple!

Sometimes, when conditions were tough, we did share a room, and you could say we were just short of actually sleeping together.

"If you dare to deny it, I'll take my son away and leave you to live alone!"

Wei Wufeng leaned closer, "Let's see which man will wash your clothes from now on!"

"How can you be so annoying!"

Chang Ning pushed his face away, feeling her own skin burning: "Go cook!"

"quack!"

The goose also pecked at him, but Wei Wufeng, unusually, didn't argue with it. He bent down and kissed her lips, snorted, and went into the kitchen.

With the founding of a new dynasty, there were countless matters, both big and small. Once everything was on track, the court officials finally set their sights on the new emperor's harem.

Shen Yanzheng had never married or taken a concubine before, and after ascending the throne, he had no women in his household who needed to be granted titles.

How could a monarch leave his harem empty? Court officials petitioned to fill the palace, even if no imperial concubines were chosen, they suggested that a few of the officials' daughters be granted titles, as they had all contributed to the emperor's rise to power, and their daughters marrying into the royal family would be considered a favor from the emperor.

Shen Yanzheng kept all the memorials to himself without issuing them, neither expressing his opinion nor refusing them.

As an emperor, especially the founder of a dynasty, he naturally needs someone to reproduce for him. The more offspring the better, otherwise what is the point of working so hard to conquer the world?

But in the dead of night, he could only see the figure of a woman. Her voice was soft and sweet, and she cried endlessly. Her eyes were like hooks, making his heart tremble.

She's nothing special, but I just can't forget her.

"Your Majesty, these memorials are already full."

It refers to a memorial concerning filling the harem. Shen Yanzheng hummed in agreement, "Summon Wu Feng."

Wu Feng was originally his personal attendant, but now he is the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Three days later, a troop of light cavalry flew out of the capital and headed straight for a village they had happened to pass by a few years earlier.

The journey would only take a day by fast horse. Shen Yanzheng and his group disguised themselves and arrived at noon. The village was no different from before, except that it was much more lively, with wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys and children running around laughing and playing.

Shen Yanzheng ordered the guards to disperse and walked to the small courtyard in the northwest corner where he used to live.

Everything in the capital city was gone; he only felt a sense of familiarity here. He came here for two reasons: to remember and to say goodbye.

The courtyard hadn't changed much, except it now felt more lively, indicating that the owners had returned.

The courtyard gate was half-open, and a "quack quack" sound could be heard from inside. He looked over and found that it was a child and a goose quacking back and forth, as if they could understand each other and were having a conversation.

He couldn't help but chuckle, thinking that she was indeed innocent and naive.

The child, seeing something, ran over with his short legs, the goose following behind. Then he vaguely heard a woman's voice, and for a moment he felt something strange, as if he were bewitched.

He raised his hand to knock on the door, when he suddenly heard a man speak: "Eat your fish obediently, and don't make your mother angry!"

The child was quite clever, and said in a childish voice, "Your Highness, you should eat too!"

The woman said with obvious disgust, "I don't like fish, give it to your father!"

His hand, which was about to knock on the door, froze in mid-air.

The voice appeared in his dreams every night, and he even suspected that he was hallucinating.

The conversation inside continued, with the man grinning and saying, "My wife still loves me the most, I'll eat!"

The woman scolded playfully, "You're so shameless!"

"How can Bo Xilai get a wife? You've promised, so you can't go back on your word!"

Three days later, the two officially became husband and wife, Chang Ning snorted.

Seeing this, Wei Wufeng sent his son away and picked her up in his arms. Chang Ning screamed and hit his shoulder: "What are you doing!"

"What do you say?"

Wei Wu looked up at her with a mischievous grin on his face, "What should you call me now?"

Chang Ning's legs and waist were restrained, but she was still afraid of falling, so she hugged his neck again and said softly, "Put me down."

"Don't let it go."

Wei Wufeng carried her around the courtyard, saying, "Call me before I put you down!"

Chang Ning grabbed his ear and whimpered, "Husband."

"Hey!"

Wei Wufeng's face revealed genuine joy. Just as he was about to say something, the courtyard gate suddenly creaked.

Someone came in from outside. Chang Ning turned around and asked, "Who is it?"
