Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction
Chapter 764 Unnamed Draft 66
The eyes of these five women were full of hope. They had been imprisoned here for so long, always worried about whether they would lose their innocence or their lives.
They were full of hope at the beginning, but gradually became desperate. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, someone from the government found them.
After the five women introduced themselves and stated their identities, the spy did not stay for long.
He quickly returned the same way, erasing all traces of the future tense, and then quickly left Wang Shanzhang's happy nest.
As the spy ran, he speculated that these five women should be raised by Wang Shan as tribute, perhaps to his superiors, or perhaps to that evil master.
No matter who they were tributed to, they could be taken away at any time. If a woman's innocence was taken away, even if she was rescued, her future would be very bleak.
The spy was very quick and reported the information to Lord Wen.
Lord Wen immediately arranged for people to rescue the trapped young ladies.
However, he also heard from the spy that four other people had been captured and taken into the secret room before, but were taken away and their whereabouts are now unknown.
Therefore, Lord Wen was a little worried. If he sent officials to rescue these five women, then the clues to the women who had been taken away before would be lost.
What if the other party becomes desperate and kills those women directly? Wouldn't that be endangering their lives?
Xiao Yunyan, who happened to be visiting, knew about this and offered some advice, saying, "Why don't I go with you to rescue them? I'll have someone to look after you if anything happens."
Lord Wen already knew how powerful Xiao Yunyan was.
She is a cultivator with a very high level of cultivation. If she participates in the rescue, not only can the safety of these women be guaranteed, but the women who were taken away will also be found quickly.
Lord Wen was overjoyed and was very grateful to Xiao Yunyan. He immediately sent a few people to follow him back to the courtyard where Master Wang was.
The group easily led the women out of the cave.
Xiao Yunyan told them not to worry about the investigation into the whereabouts of the other four women, as she would be responsible.
Then, Xiao Yunyan asked the spies and officers to escort the five women home safely, and she continued to look for clues here.
Everyone else left. She opened her yin-yang eyes and observed what had happened here.
Some blurry clips flashed by, including one in which the women were forcibly taken away, crying for help, but a tall man in black used magic to knock them unconscious.
A total of four women were taken away. The common feature of those women was that they were all very slim and beautiful.
Although Xiao Yunyan didn't know who the man in black was, she could guess that he was the evil master who harmed the Li family.
In any case, she planned to use this clue to find the location of the evil master first.
If she could find the four women, she would rescue them; if she couldn't find them, she would at least deal with the evil master directly.
There is such an evil monk who is always ready to harm young girls alive in the world. I wonder how many more girls will be harmed by him.
Now that she, Xiao Yunyan, had encountered him, the good days of this demon were over. She would not leave the evil master alive, nor would she let his soul have an easy life.
Xiao Yunyan informed Li Mohan about this matter first.
Li Mohan immediately asked to accompany her to look for clues.
Xiao Yunyan told Li Mohan not to worry about herself, but wanted her to use the Yin-Yang Eyes to check on Principal Wang to see who he had more frequent contact with.
Which high-ranking official did he plan to give these captured women to?
The couple agreed that this Shanzhang Wang was definitely not a simple person. Although he was said to be incompetent, his evil methods were vicious enough. Xiao Yunyan asked Li Mohan to investigate the details of Shanzhang Wang.
The two felt that if Shanchang Wang only had the support of a small county magistrate and an evil master with no real power, Shanchang Wang would not be able to do such evil things that could result in his family being confiscated and his property being exterminated without fear, nor would he be able to live such a carefree life.
Maybe there is a bigger mastermind behind them. Since we want to eradicate the evil forces, we should eradicate them all at once.
With the help of her Yin-Yang Eyes and her extraordinary perception ability, Xiao Yunyan quickly locked onto the evil master's current location.
She quickly went to the evil master's residence to look for clues about the four women and to uncover more secrets of the evil master.
To be completed, to be continued
Although Li Er has developed very well, he is still a student. He is already 19 years old this year. He still wants to continue to take the imperial examinations to gain fame and have a better future.
But now he is with Lord Wen and is especially trusted by him, so he has many tasks to do, which is not conducive for him to calm down and study hard to obtain fame.
Li Er was also conflicted, because it was difficult to meet a good official like Lord Wen. He was very lucky to have the opportunity to work for him.
If he quit this job and focused on fame and fortune, he would also encounter many difficulties.
His grandfather and father were no longer around, so even if he went to academy, he would probably have to start from the very basics.
After all, since he was twelve years old, his family had been broken up and he had fallen into poverty. It was not easy for him to pick up his books again.
Li Er was struggling with his dilemma when Lord Wen summoned him for a private talk.
Lord Wen already knew his life story. When helping Li Er to clear his grandfather Pingyuan's name, he also helped to thoroughly investigate the trial details of the original case, find out the key evidence, and finally redressed his grandfather's unjust case.
Lord Wen also thought that Li Er was very talented and that he learned things very quickly. If he could enter the officialdom in the future, he would definitely be a very capable and good official. He couldn't bear to let this child be buried among ordinary minor officials.
Moreover, he passed the imperial examination at the age of eleven, but when he was preparing for the autumn examination of the following year, his family was suddenly broken up and he became homeless, losing the opportunity to continue studying and gain fame.
Wen thought he should be given a chance to continue his studies. So he found him and asked, "Li Er, are you willing to continue your studies and take the imperial examination?"
Li Er didn't expect that Lord Wen would actually ask him about this matter. His originally hesitant mentality suddenly became firm.
He raised his head, looked directly at Master Wen, and said firmly, "Your Excellency, I do have this idea. But I haven't touched a book for many years, and I don't know if I still have the ability to do it.
Besides, you have treated me well and valued me very much. I am afraid that if I lose this opportunity and fail the exams again, I will not be able to make a living.”
Master Wen understood that his hesitation was due to his past experiences and told him not to worry. He said, "If you have difficulties in life, I will help you find a solution.
My two sons are also studying in college. Why don’t you study with them in the college and urge them to study hard instead of focusing on making friends.
Although my two sons have some talent for studying, we always have to invite a teacher to teach them at home in the royal capital.
Now that they have come here, they can only go to the academy to study. Without the guidance of teachers, and facing the attraction of various new things, I am afraid that their attitude towards learning will be a little lax.
So I want you to go to the academy with them and help me look after them. Then I will help you pay for the tuition and the money for the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.
You will need to figure out the rest of your living expenses by yourself. As a fellow student, you can earn money by copying books, so it shouldn’t be a problem to earn living expenses.”
Li Er was especially grateful to Lord Wen for considering him.
In fact, he knew that the two young masters were very serious in their studies and did not need his supervision. Lord Wen just wanted to help him, but he couldn't let him feel that he was taking money for nothing, so he gave him such an easy task.
He was deeply touched by Lord Wen's good intentions towards him.
But he didn't want to be a burden to Lord Wen.
Although Lord Wen's salary is not small, he has to support a large family and frequently visit relatives and friends in the royal capital, so his expenses are not small.
Wen Daren was a good official who was honest and dedicated to his work. He never took bribes. So Li Er thought that Wen Daren's money might not be enough to spend. He had better find a way out on his own.
Miss Wen knew about this matter. She felt that her father paid too much attention to Li Er, so she also learned more about it.
After learning about Li Er's life experience, Miss Wen actually felt very sympathetic towards Li Er.
Miss Wen learned that his original name was Li Changsheng. He was the second son of the Li family, but the legitimate son.
When his family encountered misfortune, he escaped because he was studying abroad, otherwise he would have been a member of the entire family who would have been executed.
From then on, Li Changsheng no longer dared to call himself by his original name. He always told others that he had no real name, and was called Li Er.
Therefore, he did not reveal his real name until his father cleared his grandfather's name.
Miss Wen also learned that Li Er was called a child prodigy by the teachers in the college when he was studying.
He took the first place in the examination for fellow students. If his family had not been murdered, the teachers believed that he would have been among the top three in the college entrance examination. His future was limitless.
After Miss Wen learned about this, she said to her father: "Why don't you adopt Li Er as your adopted son? This way he can study peacefully and help his brothers in the future."
Mr. Wen did not answer his daughter's question directly. He looked at his daughter thoughtfully and thought deeply about it.
Mr. Wen suddenly said to Miss Wen, "Yue'er, you are not young anymore. You are already seventeen years old. If your father had not been demoted to a lower position, you should have been married next year.
But Dad didn’t tell you that when the king issued an edict to demote Dad from the capital to Tongzhou, your engagement was cancelled by the royal family.
You are not young anymore. Father wants to train Li Er well. If he is really promising, I want to marry you to him. What do you think? "
After hearing the news, Miss Wen was not as surprised and distressed as Lord Wen had expected.
She told Lord Wen very calmly: "Father, in fact, I have already met Wang Chong before leaving the capital, and he has told me about this matter. He said it was his family's will and he couldn't resist. He begged me not to bear a grudge against him. To compensate me, he also gave me 1,000 taels of silver in private. We no longer owe each other anything."
Miss Wen looked up at her father, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes, "Dad, I know your good intentions. Regarding the marriage, I am willing to follow your arrangements. But I also want to personally examine Li Er's character and talent."
Master Wen nodded slightly, indicating his agreement. "That's fine. After all, marriage is related to your lifelong happiness. We will observe for half a year, and you can also arrange to spend some time with him before making a decision."
It just so happened that Xiao Yunyan came here again to visit Miss Wen and Miss Yu.
Miss Wen admired Sister Xiao very much and trusted her very much. She told Xiao Yunyan the whole story and asked her to help make a decision. She also asked Sister Xiao to help check the character and ability of Li Er.
After hearing this, Xiao Yunyan readily agreed to Miss Wen's request.
A few days later, Xiao Yunyan found an opportunity to meet Li Er. Through conversation and observation, she had a good impression of Li Er. Li Er was indeed as Master Wen said, diligent and studious, and humble and polite to others.
Not long after, Miss Wen also got the opportunity to be alone with Li Er.
Xiao Yunyan offered Li Er an opportunity, which was to give him a job in Hanmozhai under her name that was leisurely and would not interfere with his studies. During the lunch break every day, he would sell books in the shop.
