Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

"We are really not suitable. I like capable men. Like the eldest son, he became a general and had his own career. Starting a family and building a career are one and the same. If he doesn't have a career, I don't want to start a family with such a man."

After Yan Xi laid the groundwork for a while, he looked at Su Qian as if to challenge him and said:

"Second Master, you are younger than me, and you indulge in pleasure every day. You have neither fame nor official position."

"Without those substantial powers, I can't have enough confidence and status. If I marry you, I won't have the confidence to fight back when I get ridiculed by other ladies."

Su Qian quickly explained: "No, outsiders dare not say anything about the people in the Marquis' Mansion. Even if I don't have an official position, others dare not ridicule my wife."

The more he explained, the more Yan Xi was certain that he would never be able to achieve the status of an official.

Therefore, Yanxi deliberately made no sense:

"No matter what, if you let me marry you, you must go to the court."

Although she felt that this was somewhat secure, she was still worried and added another sentence, making it more difficult to marry her.

"Yes, an official position cannot be obtained by spending money on a small official position. I hope you can marry me in a scarlet official robe."

According to the regulations of this dynasty, only officials of the first to fourth ranks could wear crimson official robes to court.

Even if he was the top scorer in the imperial examination that year, he would only be appointed as a sixth-rank official when he first entered the court.

The restriction of at least four grades is not a requirement that can be easily achieved.

"Can't you change to another request?" Su Qian looked a little embarrassed, with some tired bloodshot in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Yan Xi finally felt relieved.

She just wanted to live a stable and free life. Although wealth and glory were tempting, it was hard to say whether wealth and glory that depended on others were solid.

Su Qian is now obsessed with her and loves her, Yan Xi believes it, but she doesn't believe such love can last long.

What should you do if you get married on a whim and then regret it afterward?

Yan Xi thought about these things in his mind and said firmly: "No. Second Master, you should find another good partner as soon as possible."

This request was difficult for Su Qian. He hesitated, but he could not give up his obsession with Yan Xi. He still looked at her with bright eyes, expecting:

"Then I'll try my best. Yanxi, can you wait for me?"

Fearing that she would think he was going too far, Su Qian hastily added:

"You don't have to wait too long. Two years, at most, and I will definitely be able to ride a tall white horse to marry you, okay?"

Yan Xi thought about the recent situation and estimated that she would have to leave soon. In two years, she should have left the Marquis' Mansion and opened a shop to live her own life.

"it is good."

Su Qian immediately stood up little by little like a wilted grass leaf encountering rain, shaking his head with joy.

"Yanxi, be careful around Ji Youran. She is not... a good person."

Su Qian knew that it was not a good idea to say bad things about Ji Youran in Yanxi's ear. After all, they came from the Shangshu Mansion together and had spent much more time together than he and Yanxi.

However, he felt that no matter what Ji Youran had done, he should have given Yan Xi a reminder to prevent him from being deceived or implicated because of his excessive trust.

Yan Xi was not surprised by Su Qian's words, nor did she agree with anything about Ji Youran.

She just said, "It's getting late, Second Young Master, go back early."

Su Qian's gaze stayed on Yan Xi's face, feeling very reluctant to let her go. However, when he thought that he would be able to marry her after getting the official position, an anxious voice arose in his heart.

We have to hurry up and take some time.

"Then I'll go back first, Yanxi, take good care of yourself."

Su Qian's head slowly disappeared beside the bed again, and his steps changed from normal walking to big strides, and finally to jogging.

This shows how worried he is.

For a period of time afterwards, Su Qian never came to see her again, and only occasionally asked someone to send her some cakes and interesting gadgets.

It's not that he forgot Yan Xi. He heard that Su Qian had really started studying hard and was preparing to take part in this year's imperial examination.

It was only at this time that Yan Xi realized that Su Qian was not without any achievements.

When he was sixteen, he passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, but later he indulged in pleasure and did not continue to take the exam.

Several masters in the mansion all had their own plans and preparations, and over the past few months, things have been much more stable.

The peaceful days lasted almost until a dark night - Su Po returned from the border.

He had submitted a petition to return to Beijing a month before the New Year. The border had already been stabilized, so it would not be a problem for him to come back for a few days in the New Year to reunite with his mother, brother and wife.

The new emperor is also related to the Beijing Marquisate by blood, so he will not stop him.

For some unknown reason, it took Su Po twice as long as before to return from the border.

Moreover, when he came back, he only went into his brother's yard and then took his men to the palace.

Ji Youran was shocked when he received the news that Su Bo had returned, but more than that, he was scared.

"Are you telling the truth? Your husband didn't even see his mother and went to the palace with Erlang?"

This was an extremely unusual thing. Ji Youran immediately stood up from his chair and walked around the room, looking very worried and uneasy.

Yan Xi happened to come in with the last dose of medicine and sensed an unusual atmosphere in the room.

She stood quietly behind the screen, listening to the voices inside.

Shan Xue: "Yes. Miss, why does the son-in-law want to go to the palace?"

Shanxue's voice was trembling. She didn't know what she was thinking about, and the last syllable rose sharply.

"Don't think too much," Ji Youran panicked for a moment, then regained some composure and scolded the maid who was guilty of something.

"My husband is different from others. He always asks for permission from the emperor before returning. Now he must be here to report the battle situation at the border."

Ji Youran still remembers how Su Bo tolerated and gave in during the month after their marriage. She didn't think that Su Bo would do anything to hurt her.

"Yes, that's right." Perhaps because Ji Youran's expression was too calm, Shanxue regained some of her rationality.

"It must be nothing."

Yanxi listened to their entire conversation, but she was not as optimistic as they were.

That’s right, she didn’t think that Su Bo and Su Qian’s strange behavior of going to the emperor together had nothing to do with Ji Youran.

Su Qian sent her some signals, and even though he didn't say it explicitly, she guessed that something bad was about to happen.

Although no one knows what Miss You Ran has done and what role Shan Xue plays in it, being able to appear before the Emperor is by no means a trivial matter.

It seems like it's time to leave.

Yan Xi pretended that he heard nothing, gave the medicine to Ji Youran to drink, and then asked for a token to leave the house under the pretext of "buying medicinal bath ingredients".

She had packed her things long ago. In the room, besides the things prepared by the mansion, there was only...
