Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction
Chapter 771 Unnamed Draft 73
After reading his father's letter, Li Changsheng's worries about the future were alleviated a lot.
Recently, he and Wen Xiyue have been interacting more and more frequently. He has become more and more clear about his feelings for her, but he knows that his status does not match that of Wen Xiyue.
Although Wen Xiyue and Mr. Wen did not care about his status and were very kind to him, as a man, he did not want his wife to be ridiculed in front of others for marrying a person of low status.
Now, he doesn't have to worry about his livelihood and can concentrate on studying. He will have a better chance of achieving higher honors in the future.
Li Changsheng sensed that Xiao Yunyan felt sorry for the miserable situation of their father and son, and also wanted to help him and Wen Xiyue to be together smoothly in the future, so she provided her father with such a good opportunity.
Both the father and son were clear-minded and grateful. Therefore, Xiao Yunyan's help to them was worth it.
Li Changsheng soon gained the title of scholar, and later achieved the title of juren.
Until this time, Wen Xiyue and Mr. Wen felt that Li Changsheng had a bright future.
Just after Li Changsheng obtained the title of Juren, he and Wen Xiyue made an appointment to meet at the riverside where there were few people.
He expressed his admiration for Wen Xiyue. He also wanted to know what Wen Xiyue thought of him.
Wen Xiyue heard Li Changsheng say: "Miss Wen, I have been with you for such a long time, and I have already made my feelings for you clear. Today I want to tell you that I like you. I wonder if Miss Wen likes me too."
Although Miss Wen was a very generous woman, she did not expect Li Changsheng to be so straightforward in saying that he liked her. Her pretty face turned red when she was asked by Li Changsheng.
Even if Wen Xiyue was bold, it was not easy for her to directly tell Li Changsheng that she also liked him. But she did not want to let Mr. Li, who had finally gathered up the courage to confess his feelings to her, misunderstand.
Wen Xiyue blushed and looked at Li Changsheng deeply. She neither answered nor turned away, but just lowered her head and twisted the handkerchief in her hand.
Although Li Changsheng did not get an answer from Wen Xiyue, when he saw her suddenly become shy like a little girl, her face flushed and her ears turned pink, he knew that Wen Xiyue also had feelings for him.
Li Changsheng and Wen Xiyue had been together for such a long time, but they had never had any physical contact. Today, he learned that his beloved woman also liked him. So he mustered up his courage and gently took Wen Xiyue's delicate hand.
He carefully took out a box and put a emerald green and transparent jade bracelet inside on Wen Xiyue's wrist.
Wen Xiyue saw the jade bracelet on her wrist, which was obviously worth a lot of money. She looked up at Li Changsheng in confusion. She asked with a trembling voice, "Mr. Li, why did you give me this jade bracelet?"
Li Changsheng was also very nervous, but he still looked deeply into Wen Xiyue's eyes with sincere eyes, and said slowly and firmly: "This is the ancestral jade bracelet my mother left me, and asked me to give it to her daughter-in-law. I hope you can accept it."
Wen Xiyue had always thought that Li Changsheng had not dared to take a step forward emotionally because of family reasons. There was always something ambiguous between the two of them, they were friends but much closer than friends. That layer of window paper had never been broken.
As a woman, she couldn't be too proactive. Therefore, she even felt that she and Li Changsheng still had a long way to go from being friends to being lovers.
But today, Li Changsheng's bravery and boldness made him look at Li Changsheng with new eyes.
Wen Xiyue also mustered up the courage to ask what was on her mind: "Mr. Li, you and I have been seeing each other for more than two years.
Although we have become good friends, you have never shown me your clear feelings.
Why did you not only express your feelings to me today, but also give me such an important token of love?"
Li Changsheng had already fallen deeply in love with Wen Xiyue, but due to his status and family's financial situation, he had never confessed his feelings.
Today he took this opportunity to boldly confess: "Miss Wen, can I call you Yue'er?
I have been changing you in my heart for a long time. I like you, but I have never had the courage to confess to you.
Today I have obtained the status of Juren, and in the future I will definitely pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi.
I didn't confess my feelings to you before because I didn't have a suitable identity and couldn't guarantee a bright future for you. So I kept my feelings for you hidden in my heart.
Today, I express my feelings to you without reservation. If you can accept my feelings, I will ask my father to ask a matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage.
I don't want to wait any longer. Soon I will go to the royal capital to take the exam, study in the royal capital's academy for half a year, and then take the Jinshi exam there.
I originally wanted to wait until I passed the imperial examination before expressing my feelings to you, but I saw that many families sent matchmakers to your house to propose marriage.
I am very worried. What if I don't express my feelings to you and you think I am heartless to you and agree to someone else? I will regret it for the rest of my life.
"Yue'er, are you pleased with me?"
Wen Xiyue listened to Li Changsheng speaking out what was in his mind with a blushing face without reservation. The deep affection in his words made her heart flutter.
Wen Xiyue reached out and gently stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist, and looked at Li Changsheng with eyes full of affection.
She expressed her feelings to Li Changsheng: "In fact, you don't have to wait until you pass the imperial examination to express your feelings to me.
When I told you I was a woman, I already liked you. You kept me waiting for a long time."
Li Changsheng was extremely excited when he heard Wen Xiyue's affirmative and affectionate answer. He blushed and wrapped Wen Yue's hand tightly in his palm. The two looked at each other affectionately.
Just when the two were about to have their eyes broken, a voice suddenly shouted angrily beside them: "Li Changsheng, you lecher, you actually dared to molest a decent girl in broad daylight.
It's a pity that the teachers think so highly of you. I didn't expect that you would be so righteous in front of others, but a scoundrel behind their backs. "
Li Changsheng looked back, wondering who was so rude? He was expressing his feelings to the woman he loved, and they were both in love, so how could he be considered a scoundrel?
Before he and Wen Xiyue could question each other, a young man dressed very flashily came towards him with five scholars.
When he saw who was coming, Li Changsheng felt uneasy. The leader of the group turned out to be Ma Siyuan, the youngest son of the Quanzhou Taoist family and a classmate with whom he had a grudge in the academy.
Li Changsheng was very upset. It was really unlucky that this stinky dog shit came to disrupt the situation at such an important moment.
This Ma Luyuan was the son of the academician. Before Li Changsheng went to the academy, he relied on his father's status and was always praised by the teachers in the academy.
Ma Siyuan has always been recognized as a talented person in the academy. But since Li Changsheng came to the academy, he has been overshadowed.
When Li Changsheng took the examination for the scholar, he was ranked first. When he took the examination for the juren, he was ranked third in Quanzhou. Although Ma Siyuan also passed the examinations for the scholar and juren, his ranking was much lower.
The teachers are more optimistic about Li Changsheng. Recently, the teachers privately believe that if Li Changsheng works harder, devotes all his energy to studying, and goes to a good academy in the royal capital to study for half a year, he will be able to get into the top three in the imperial examination.
Ma Siyuan became increasingly disgusted with Li Changsheng because of jealousy, and he always wanted to make trouble for Li Changsheng. Whenever he had the chance, he would make all kinds of sarcastic remarks about Li Changsheng.
What made Ma Siyuan even angrier was that Wen Xiyue was also the official lady that Ma Siyuan wanted to pursue. And Ma Siyuan was also determined to win her over. His father was the academician of Quanzhou Dao. His status and position were very compatible with Wen Xiyue.
But what Ma Siyuan never expected was that when his family asked a matchmaker to go to the Wen family to ask for marriage, they were rejected. Ma Siyuan always felt that Wen Xiyue might look down on his status and position.
After all, Lord Wen is the highest official in Quanzhou, and his father's official rank is two levels lower than Lord Wen.
Ma Siyuan also thought that if he could pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, and then propose to Wen Xiyue, she would no longer despise his low family background.
Unexpectedly, he saw Li Changsheng, who had no family background, shamelessly holding Wen Xiyue's hand. And Wen Xiyue actually let this lecher hold his hand tightly.
Ma Siyuan's heart was hit so hard that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he yelled.
But Wen Xiyue didn't know that Ma Siyuan was so deeply in love with her.
When Ma Siyuan's family sent a matchmaker to propose marriage, Wen Xiyue also knew about it, and her father and mother asked for her opinion.
Wen Xiyue told Lord Wen that he had developed a liking for Li Changsheng.
As for Ma Siyuan, she didn't know him. But she had seen him from a distance a few times. She didn't like people who were so arrogant and rude.
So the reason why Wen Xiyue rejected Ma Siyuan was not because the two families were not compatible, but because Wen Xiyue did not like Ma Siyuan's personality.
Besides, Li Changsheng is far superior to Ma Siyuan in terms of knowledge, appearance, and figure.
Wen Xiyue knew what Ma Siyuan was thinking. He was deliberately trying to discredit Li Changsheng out of jealousy. So when he saw her and Li Changsheng talking to each other, he deliberately came to mess things up.
Wen Xiyue and Li Changsheng didn't want to bother with the guy in the room.
However, Ma Siyuan was surrounded by several like-minded students who followed his lead.
The place where they are now is a relatively secluded riverside.
Ma Siyuan's eyes revealed jealousy, unwillingness, and malicious intent, which made Li Changsheng and Wen Xiyue feel that these people might be planning to do something wrong.
Li Changsheng thought that if he faced them alone, he would not be afraid.
After all, he had learned a lot of skills during the time he spent with the ruffians. Later, when he worked under Master Wen, he was also trained and improved.
It can be said that his skills are pretty good. Facing these scholars, even if they attack him in groups, he will not be at a disadvantage.
But now, there is a weak woman named Wen Xiyue by his side. In order to protect her safety, Li Changsheng must be extremely careful.
Li Changsheng protected Wen Xiyue and retreated to the crowded area. However, the river was at least 500 to 600 meters away from the crowded area.
Seeing that Li Changsheng was about to escape, Ma Siyuan immediately signaled to several of his followers. There were six of them in total, surrounding Li Changsheng and Wen Xiyue in the middle.
Ma Siyuan’s smile was a little ferocious, but he would not offend Wen Xinyue. Instead, he said to Wen Xiyue, “Miss Wen, don’t be fooled by Li Changsheng, this gentlemanly scoundrel.
Fortunately, we met a few students playing by the river today, and we came to protect you. Otherwise, if you were deceived by Li Changsheng, your reputation would be ruined.
Miss Wen, please let go of your hand and come over here. We will escort you back."
When Wen Xiyue heard Ma Siyuan say this, she couldn't help but tremble with anger. She pointed at Ma Siyuan and said, "You shameless villain, stop talking nonsense! Changsheng is not what you said!"
Li Changsheng pulled Wen Xiyue behind him and said to Ma Siyuan and the others, "What on earth do you want to do? In broad daylight, do you want to forcibly seize a woman?"
Ma Siyuan sneered and said, "Humph, Mr. Li, don't refuse a toast! I only admire Miss Wen and have no intention of blaspheming her. I saw you holding her hand and I was afraid that it would ruin her reputation, so I wanted to protect her.
