Seeing the young emperor being subdued by the imperial teacher, Lai Xi couldn't help but secretly cover his mouth and laugh. It makes sense that there is always someone better.

Acting nice didn't work, so Xie Lang had to put his thoughts aside and finished eating the ice yogurt obediently. At least the sweet taste in front of him wouldn't slip away.

After finishing the class in the afternoon, Wen Hemian quickly packed up his things and prepared to leave the palace.

Xie Lang raised his eyebrows, puzzled: "Why is Taifu so anxious today?"

The palace was peaceful, and Wen Hemian basically seldom stayed overnight, but she would patiently spend time with Xie Lang and would go out before the palace gates were locked. She was always calm and composed, and Xie Lang could not think of anything that could make her anxious.

"Go and see someone. She may be of use to your majesty in the future."

Wen Hemian stopped there and didn't want to say more.

Xie Lang saw her attitude and had to let her go, but he pleaded quietly: "There is no court meeting tomorrow, can the Master enter the palace earlier?"

The young boy tugged at her sleeve hesitantly, his force was not strong, but it made people feel soft-hearted. Wen Hemian was stunned for a moment, but she couldn't bear to refuse after all: "Okay, I will go to the palace early tomorrow to accompany Alang."

Wen Hemian was actually annoyed by the whole thing of ruler-ruler and subject-subject relationship. She had thought that this was a feudal society and had pretended to be so for a while. But now that Xie Lang said there was no need to be so formal, she felt much more relaxed.

Xie Lang immediately withdrew his hand obediently and smiled: "Okay."

Only then did Wen Hemian leave the palace.

The person she wanted to see was not someone else, but the heroine Liu Qiongyue in the original book.

Liu Qiongyue was born into a merchant family. Although she was a girl, she had accounting skills that were no less than her father's. She was bold and careful, intelligent and clever, and was highly valued by her father.

But in this era where everything is inferior except for education, Liu Qiongyue, as a woman, would inevitably be bullied if she went out to do business. Her father had originally intended to find a husband for her, and later when he picked up the injured male protagonist, this matter became a natural thing.

The subsequent development is predictable. With the support of the Liu family, the male protagonist passes the imperial examination and enters the court. While serving as an official, he protects the Liu family's business. Not only does his official career go smoothly, but his relationship with the female protagonist also becomes increasingly harmonious.

This is what should have happened in the original world line, but the problem is that the tyrant Xie Lang suddenly went mad and killed the male and female protagonists, causing the world to collapse.

Anyway, the male and female protagonists must not be moved. Wen Hemian thought about it and felt that nothing could be more stable than cooperation. This couple is rich and talented, it would be a pity not to bring them to important positions.

At this time, Liu Qiongyue's career had just begun, and she was worried about having no way to get around in Beijing. Coincidentally, she came to Wen Hemian's shop to inquire two days ago, and Wen Hemian had been wanting to find a time to have a good talk with her.

It's just that she had been busy dealing with Ning Hechu's forces before, so she only had time now. Fortunately, Liu Qiongyue was a person who didn't care about anything, and agreed to her request without saying a word.

The meeting place was scheduled to be at Shuiyunfang. In the eyes of outsiders, it was always not good for a single man and a single woman to be in the same room, so Wen Hemian brought Qingyun with him and traveled in a low-key manner.

She thought she arrived early, but unexpectedly, when she arrived, Liu Qiongyue was already sitting inside waiting.

Liu Qiongyue was wearing a goose yellow silk dress. She looked elegant and beautiful. She didn't have too many decorations on her body, and her hair was simply tied up with a jade hairpin. Behind her stood a tall man with a face as white as jade and the gentle temperament of a scholar.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the male lead.

Liu Qiongyue did not introduce herself and Wen Hemian did not ask anything. The two simply greeted each other.

"Mr. Wen."

"Miss Liu."

The surname Wen is rare, and there is only one family with this name in the capital. Even though Liu Qiongyue didn't know Wen Hemian's specific identity, she was still cautious, fearing that she might offend her.

"Miss Liu, don't be so nervous. I came here today just to talk to you about the business." Wen Hemian picked up the teapot and poured tea, then calmly handed the cup to Liu Qiongyue, stating his purpose. "Miss Liu wants to open up the trade route in Beijing, and I also have an idea to expand my business."

Money makes the world go round. No matter what time, money is needed. The business of the shops in the mansion was previously managed by Uncle Lu alone. After Wen Hemian returned to Beijing to prepare for the exam, he also secretly managed part of it.

Modern compulsory education does have its advantages. The shop made a lot of money just from the soap provided by Wen Hemian. I think it was because of this that Liu Qiongyue came to their shop first.

Liu Qiongyue's eyes lit up when she heard this: "That's just right. My father traveled a lot in his early years and has many connections in Jiangnan. If I can cooperate with you, I might get some unexpected gains."

Cooperation is a must, and Wen Hemian has already made this plan.

She cannot focus on this at the moment, and it may not be certain when Xie Lang grows up. In this world, only money can make a living, and there is no point in letting those things in her mind pretend to be rusty.

Wen Hemian thought it over and said, "Of course. There are many nobles in the capital, but my family is not afraid. If Miss Liu cooperates with me, I can help you. The profit is also easy to talk about. I am sincere in cooperation. How about a 50-50 split?"

This was higher than Liu Qiongyue had expected. She was immediately delighted: "Of course it's possible! Young Master is such a straightforward person!"

"That's good. I'm not good at this. Miss Liu can discuss the specific matters directly with the shopkeeper later. After signing the contract, everything will be done."

Wen Hemian came here today mainly to meet Liu Qiongyue. When he found that the heroine had a good temper, he felt relieved.

However, she also keenly noticed that when she looked at Liu Qiongyue more often, the man standing behind her frowned and looked unhappy.

Wen Hemian saw it but said nothing.

When she had almost finished talking with Liu Qiongyue, she took the initiative to say goodbye, and Liu Qiongyue quickly stood up to see her off.

Before getting on the carriage, she seemed to see from the corner of her eye that Liu Qiongyue twisted the man's arm and said a few words to him angrily. Then the man lowered his brows helplessly and touched her head.

Sure enough, the male protagonist cannot escape the law of being dominated by his wife.

Wen Hemian smiled and withdrew his gaze, no longer asking about the relationship between the male and female protagonists.

If they are all well, the world will be well too. It would be best if they could live in peace.

……

Liu Qiongyue needs special treatment, so Wen Hemian specifically instructed his subordinates not to be sneaky or cunning. Sometimes being too attentive may arouse suspicion.

She promised Xie Lang and went to the palace much earlier the next day. When she arrived, Xie Lang was practicing martial arts with Changzhu.

Not only was he extremely sensitive to political affairs, he was also very fast at learning riding and archery, which even Chang Zhu was amazed at.

The young boy was wearing a tight suit, sitting on the horse's back, with his hair tied into a high ponytail. He ran wobbly, his eyes focused and serious, and he drew the bow and shot the arrow in one go, hitting the center of the bull's eye effortlessly.

Extremely dazzling.
