Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction

Xiao Yunyan admired the courage of this young man, Li Changsheng, who made a promise that was almost as desperate as burning his boats.

However, Xiao Yunyan did not think that a man's oath was so reliable. There was still a long way to go in the future. He and Wen Xiyue had not been together for a long time, and they had not been tested by time and hardships.

Although Xiao Yunyan is very optimistic about Li Changsheng and Wen Xiyue, she also wants to help them be together.

However, the identities of the two are not equal now, and this may be reversed in the future.

Now they swear solemnly that if one day in the future they encounter an insurmountable test, then Li Changsheng will break his oath and harm both of them.

She still asked Li Changsheng to think it over carefully before doing this.

But Li Changsheng refused to listen and said that his feelings for Xiyue would not waver no matter what.

Although Xiao Yunyan was not a person with much experience in love, she had only liked Li Mohan in her past and present lives, and had never experienced those emotional entanglements of intrigue.

But she saw the tremendous changes in the emotions between men and women in this time and space.

When a man wants to marry a woman, he is always sincere and committed. But once his status improves and he has the opportunity to meet a young and beautiful woman, he will start to be interested again.

Even if he believed that Li Changsheng would not change his heart, as his status and position improved, perhaps someone else would take the initiative to seduce him and set him up, so that he would have an unspeakable relationship with another woman.

If that happened, how would he deal with it? He promised before marriage not to take concubines or wives, so how would he deal with another woman with whom he had an affair?

Xiao Yunyan is not an emotionally pessimistic person, but such things happen from time to time in the courts of various countries.

Especially young talents like Li Changsheng, who are very handsome and have strong abilities.

With her and Li Mohan's support, Li Changsheng's status and position will definitely become higher and higher in the future.

If by then, someone who actively pursues him appears beside him, will Li Changsheng be able to withstand the test? Xiao Yunyan is not sure.

However, when Li Changsheng was actually framed and had physical contact with other women, it was impossible for him to not take responsibility.

So, instead of swearing before marriage that he would not take a concubine or a mistress, and making a promise to Wen Xiyue, he ended up being unable to fulfill the promise, which made her heartbroken.

It is better to think through all the situations that need to be considered, and it is not too late to talk about marriage after both parties have a clear understanding of each other's intentions.

Xiao Yunyan didn't think getting engaged so early was a good thing.

However, after all, Wen Xiyue and Li Changsheng were not young anymore, both were 18 years old. It was only natural for them to get engaged now. If Li Changsheng passed the imperial examination, the wedding would be held immediately.

Xiao Yunyan would not interfere too much. She just asked Li Changsheng to take many unforeseen situations into consideration and then have a good talk with Wen Xiyue.

If the two reach a consensus, getting engaged and getting married is their own rational choice.

Xiao Yunyan told Li Changsheng what she was thinking very frankly.

Li Changsheng was silent for a long time. He thought that if he met a better woman in the future, he might like her, but he would not betray Wen Xiyue, his wonderful wife.

He considered himself a gentleman, and a gentleman must keep his promises. Without trust, one cannot stand in the world.

Seeing that Li Changsheng was so determined, Xiao Yunyan stopped trying to persuade him.

After all, their feelings and what they will experience in the future are their own business.

As an outsider, she can give some suggestions, but she cannot help others make decisions.

However, she is not able to help say a few words for the time being.

She asked Li Changsheng to think it through and then have a good talk with Wen Xiyue, taking into account all possible situations.

If they both recognized each other, she would go to Madam Wen and Lord Wen to say a few good words for Li Changsheng.

After thinking for a few days, Li Changsheng decided to talk to Wen Xiyue. He asked Wen Xiyue to meet him by the lake and sincerely expressed his thoughts and concerns.

Wen Xiyue listened quietly, with a touch of emotion in her eyes. She knew that Li Changsheng was sincere about this relationship and was willing to face the uncertainty of the future together.

They talked for a long time and finally reached a consensus that no matter what they would encounter in the future, they would support each other and never leave each other.

Li Changsheng and Mei Xiyue left the lake hand in hand, their hearts more determined and full of expectations for the future.

After hearing her daughter's idea, Mrs. Wen sent someone to reply to the matchmakers hired by the three families. Mrs. Wen sincerely praised the sons of the other two families. However, she said that her daughter liked Li Changsheng. Although the Wen family had no fate of in-laws with the two families, they could still have more exchanges in the future.

Madam Wen was still a little uncertain about Li Changsheng. After all, he had not yet obtained the title of Jinshi.

Madam Wen wanted to wait until after the imperial examination and the palace examination in the capital to discuss the marriage. But Lord Wen said that since the two children were fighting each other, let them get engaged. He believed that Li Changsheng would definitely pass the exam next time even if he didn't pass the exam this time, because Lord Wen had learned from the teachers in the academy that this child not only had a photographic memory, but also had great perseverance.

The teacher praised Li Changsheng for his excellent foundation, saying that he deserved to be ranked first in both the provincial and provincial examinations, and third in the college examination.

Although he did not go to the academy for a few years, he was fortunate enough to pass the imperial examination and won the titles of scholar and juren in just two years, which was truly impressive.

After hearing what Lord Wen said, Madam Wen began to have some ideas.

Just at this time, at the request of Wen Xiyue and Li Changsheng, Xiao Yunyan had a face-to-face meeting with Mrs. Wen.

Xiao Yunyan revealed to Mrs. Wen some of her views on Li Changsheng and Li Changsheng's future development direction.

How shrewd is Madam Wen? She could tell that Xiao Yunyan valued Li Changsheng and his son.

Xiao Yunyan not only employed Li Changsheng's father, but also served as the financial manager of several surrounding countries.

In the future, Li Changsheng will also be someone Xiao Yunyan will use. Even if Li Changsheng becomes an official in the royal capital in the future, he will still be supported by Xiao Yunyan.

All of Madam Wen's worries and dissatisfaction with Li Changsheng disappeared. With such a strong backer, Li Changsheng will surely rise to prominence in the future.

Although Xiao Yunyan and Wen Xiyue had a good relationship, it was just a handkerchief friendship, and there was no substantial cooperation or business dealings between them.

Even though Lord Wen had captured many prisoners with the help of Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan and was highly valued by the court for his political achievements, it was only temporary cooperation.

Xiao Yunyan has revealed that Li Changsheng will be Xiao Yunyan's boss in the future. With such status and position, even if Li Changsheng does not become an official of the court, his future is limitless.

Madam Wen thanked Xiao Yunyan profusely and said goodbye. She immediately told Master Wen what Xiao Yunyan had talked about with her.

Lord Wen was a little shocked. He thought for a long time, nodded and said, "Li Changsheng is a clear-headed person. He will also judge the situation and make use of all the resources around him.

Moreover, this child has a very accurate understanding of his own value and knows how to gain the trust of those in power.

The fact that he has gained Xiao Yunyan's attention shows that he is a capable and trustworthy person.

Xiao Yunyan's ability to speak up for him means that she recognizes that he is a good match for her daughter. Let's settle the marriage.

The status of a Jinshi, or even a court official, could not compare to Xiao Yunyan's status as the leader of several small countries in this area.

Madam, there is hope for the future of our Wen family. I will not be demoted any further. "

After listening to Mr. Wen's analysis, Mrs. Wen immediately sent someone to invite the matchmaker from the Li family.

The reply to the Li family was: Agree to discuss the marriage. Li Changsheng immediately asked his father to bring a matchmaker to the house. The two families discussed the marriage of the two together.

The local marriage negotiation process is very simple. Once the gift price and wedding date are agreed upon and the couple gets more intimate, they are considered engaged.

Because the Wen family also knew the Li family's situation and their limited assets, they did not hold high hopes for the Li family's dowry.

However, before Li Wenxi came to the Wen family, Xiao Yunyan called him away and gave him some instructions.

Xiao Yunyan gave Li Wenxi one thousand two taels of silver as a benefit for employees to marry daughters-in-law.

And told him: "Manager Li, if the Li family needs to buy things for the wedding, you can enjoy a 20% discount on all purchases from my clothing store, jewelry store, and Nanbei Commercial Bank."

Li Wenxi knew that he had only been in the job for a short time. His boss actually gave him so much money directly, and also offered discounts on the purchase of goods, which really showed his great care for him.

He had no way to repay this kindness. He could only do his best to do his job well in the days to come.

Li Wenxi was extremely grateful to Xiao Yunyan. Xiao Yunyan also told him not to worry, as this was the benefit he deserved as a subordinate.

After Li Wenxi received the silver, he gave it to his son and asked him to arrange it. In addition to the one thousand taels of silver given by Xiao Yunyan, he also saved five hundred taels of silver.

Although this amount of money was nothing to Wen Jia, the two elders of the Wen family did not ask Li Changsheng to worry about money.

Li Changsheng knew that his family's strength could not be compared with that of the Wen family. Although Lord Wen was an honest official, he had been an official in the capital for a long time. The response was very generous. There were also various benefits. Added together, there were more than 2000 silver taels of income each year. Moreover, the Wen family had a main property. Mrs. Wen also had her own dowry. The income was considerable. According to his estimate, the annual income of the Wen family should be taels of silver.

Therefore, even if he sold the house and all the remaining main property, it would only be more than 10,000 taels. It would be better to keep it and slowly earn the rent and dividends in the future.

When Wen Xinyue learned that he had taken out 1,500 taels to prepare for the wedding, he was very surprised, because he thought that the father and son had been living outside and could not have saved any money, so how could they have so much income in just over a year.

Wen Xinyue had already learned from Li Changsheng that the land and shop left by his mother had an annual income of more than 600 taels of silver.

Because I just got it back not long ago, there is not much output yet.

Now he suddenly took out the money. Wen Xinyue was worried that they had borrowed money from relatives and friends. He didn't want Li Changsheng to be burdened by this.

He had more than 20,000 silver notes and 5,000 taels of silver in his pocket. The property deeds his mother gave him together with his annual income amounted to 2,000 taels. He simply couldn't spend it all. So he didn't want to force Li Changsheng to empty out all his family assets and still have to bear debts.

If they get married, my father-in-law will still live here. He will definitely remarry in the future, so there must be some money in the family.

Wen Xinyue told Li Changsheng her thoughts openly.

Li Changsheng assured him that he had not borrowed money. Five hundred taels of silver were earned by his father during this period. He saved them, and the remaining one thousand taels were employee benefits given by Mr. Xiao. He said that they were in the store. All workers would have employee benefits. Because his father had a high position and a large area under his jurisdiction, he gave his child one thousand taels as employee benefits when he got married.

Wen Xinyue heard this. He was relieved to hear this result, but he felt a little guilty towards Xiao Yunyan. After all, Sister Xiao had been helping them and never asked for any reward or return from them. This lifesaver was really... Not only did she save his life, but she also pushed his future life in a better direction.
