Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

At this time, the official next to him who was familiar with Shi Jingke said:

"I'm afraid Xiao Guogong doesn't know! Master Su and Prince Xian are cousins-in-law. Master Su's wife is Princess Xian's cousin, and she grew up with Princess Xian."

When Xiao Yan heard this, it was as he had guessed, but why did Lin Shu marry Su Yi?For a moment, he didn't know how to react. He could only control his emotions and not allow others to see any flaws. He would send someone to investigate the specific situation after the morning court meeting.

Seeing Xiao Yan stunned, Han Yun, a good friend of Xiao Yan, opened her mouth to explain for Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Guogong has been busy with court affairs before, so it's normal that he doesn't know. I just found out today that the newly appointed third-rank Dali Temple Qing Su, Mr. Su, is married. I originally wanted to make a friend. There is also a little girl in my family who has also arrived. Marriage age, it’s a pity, Mr. Su already has a wife in his family.”

"Master Han, please stop joking. If my wife finds out, she will be angry with me. I don't want to go back to sleep in the study!" Su Yi quickly took out Lin Shu as a shield. It was not to say how powerful Lin Shu was, but Show your attitude.

The official who was close to him said jokingly:

"I didn't expect Mr. Su, who is so young and promising, to be afraid of Madam."

"This gentleman is joking. My daughter-in-law is gentle and virtuous. She is a blessing to Su. I should naturally love and respect her more. When I have time in the future, when I settle down, I will invite you to my home."

As soon as Su Yi finished speaking, the people behind him started to get excited.

"Okay!"

"We also want to see what kind of heavenly beauty Mrs. Su is. Master Su must keep his word!"

Xiao Yan felt uncomfortable after hearing this.

"Quiet, what are you talking about when you are so noisy! Especially you." Xiao Yan pointed at a few old officials who were talking.

"It's not the first day for you to go to court. How can you be so noisy and polite? Have you never attended other people's banquets? It's like two of you have never seen the world."

Xiao Yan's roar made the scene quiet down, and everyone was even confused. It was clearly Xiao Yan who was the one who started it, but why did his face suddenly turn dark?

After the morning court, the new officials followed their superiors and began to move towards their future work places according to their official positions.

Su Yi followed Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan personally asked Emperor Lan for Su Yi by name. Xiao Yan relied on his own efforts to become the Duke of the country at a young age. Everyone thought that Su Yi followed. Xiao Yan's career is definitely getting better and better.

When they arrived at Dali Temple, Xiao Yan sat at the main seat and read a book. He was silent for a long time, leaving Su Yi and several newly hired officials standing in the hall waiting in vain.

After a long time, several new officials who came in pushed me and I pushed you, but they didn't dare to take a step forward.

"My lord, it's our first day that you and I have taken office. I wonder what your plans are, my lord?" Su Yi saw others pushing each other's money, so he stepped forward and spoke.

Xiao Yan's thoughts were called back. He suddenly thought of Lin Shu and imagined himself and Lin Shu singing in harmony.

But when Xiao Yan raised his head and saw Su Yi, he knew that he had really missed Lin Shu in this life. It was also his fault that Xiao Yan was too confident and did not expect Lin Shu to get married.

In the end, Xiao Yan reluctantly accepted the reality. After all, he was reborn. He did not know Lin Shu in this life. From the moment he was reborn, he had chosen to give up on Lin Shu. He could not blame others but himself.

"My Lord has already drafted it. Su Yi, please take Mr. Zhang, Mr. Xue and Mr. Zhou to sort out the files in the past five years. This time the Sixth Prince rebelled, there are many files involving the Sixth Prince and his party. The Emperor has ordered Everyone should read it carefully and report any problems to their prince, who will be responsible for discussing with the emperor whether to re-examine it."

Xiao Yan figured it out, since he had missed Lin Shu, he just let nature take its course and did not treat Su Yi specially. After all, Su Yi was indeed a rare talent.

"The Duke, the lower officials and several adults have all taken office on their first day. There are still many things they don't understand. If they are handed over to us newcomers, I'm afraid it won't be handled properly." As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Su Yi pointed out A major problem.

"You don't need to worry about this. My Lord has already found an experienced Master Ge waiting for you in the attic. If you have anything, you can ask him for advice. I hope you can learn more from Master Ge so that you can relieve the Emperor's worries in the future."

"I understand!" Several officials who were named responded by raising their hands together with Su Yi.

Xiao Yan looked at several other officials. Because he had no impression of the other officials in his previous life, he just filled in some vacancies at will.

Some are responsible for guarding the prison, some are responsible for managing the three meals a day for the prisoners, and some are responsible for reading files, which are all insignificant errands.

After Xiao Yan arranged the newcomers' positions, he sat in the main seat in a daze.

From the moment he saw Su Yi's food and the purse on Su Yi's waist, Lin Shu's figure kept flashing in his mind.

Xiao Yan forced himself to forget Lin Shu's presence and began to sort out his affairs. Later, he found that he couldn't forget it at all, so he went home when the time was almost up.

"My lord, you came back earlier than usual today, and the food is not ready yet." Wang Jingxuan always held out her belly, as if to show off.

While Wang Jingxuan helped Xiao Yan take off his court uniform, Xiao Yan said:

"It's okay. A new person came to Dali Temple today. We all shared many tasks, so we finished them early today and my prince came back early."

After Xiao Yan changed into court clothes.

Wang Jingxuan touched her belly and said with a smile:

"It seems that the emperor still cares about you. You will be the first to select the new officials. Now that the new officials have joined Dali Temple, it will be easier for you in the future. If you come back early, you can spend more time with your mother and me."

Xiao Yan glanced at Wang Jingxuan. Ever since Wang Jingxuan found out she was pregnant, she would always touch her belly whether she was talking to him or Mrs. Hou, reminding others that she was pregnant all the time.

"As the Marquis's wife, and now the Duke's wife, please behave in a more dignified manner. The Duke knows that you are pregnant, so there is no need to touch your belly all the time. Be careful that the child is uncomfortable."

Wang Jingxuan's face suddenly collapsed after being taught a lesson by Xiao Yan.

"What the Duke taught me is that I will remember it."

Xiao Yan picked up a jade pendant and planned to tie it on his waist as an embellishment. As a result, the thread on the jade pendant suddenly broke when he was tying it, and the jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Didn't I say before that the thread on this jade pendant is about to break, and I asked you to find someone to fix it? It's been a month, but the jade pendant hasn't been repaired yet, and I didn't tell my father-in-law. Look, it's a good jade pendant. It turned into pieces. This is the jade pendant I have worn for nearly ten years, and it is also my prince’s favorite jade pendant.”
