Chapter 471 Xie Yunying Part 1
Xie Yunying got married at the age of twenty-one.
She had not originally planned to get married, but who knew that man would break into her life so openly.
It’s not that she didn’t get married because of something that happened, but that she just hadn’t met someone she liked.
So she thought, it would be nice to be single for the rest of her life.
She has a brother who is the emperor, a sister-in-law who is the empress, and her eldest and second brothers are both princes. She herself is a princess, so she doesn't have to worry about having nothing to eat when she is old.
Her sister-in-law knew that she didn't want to get married, and she didn't have any objections, but she couldn't explain it to her mother.
He would talk to me every now and then.
She also asked her third brother to collect many portraits of men of the right age so that she could see which one she was satisfied with.
You don’t have to worry about family background or anything like that.
As long as she likes him, Xie Su would accept him even if he was a farmer.
Xie Yunying felt the pressure was really great.
At her mother's repeated requests, she finally picked one at random.
As a result, he was chosen as the top scorer in this exam.
Moreover, she had seen him outside before.
Xie Yunying was stunned.
Xie Su clapped her hands and asked someone to quickly tell the emperor the news and ask the emperor to ask this top scholar Li whether he had a family.
If they did, their family would naturally not break them up.
If not, Xie Su would not want to miss this opportunity.
Xie Yunying looked at the gentle man in the portrait and thought of how he had argued with the boss who bullied women and children on Chang'an Avenue some time ago.
She pursed her lips slightly.
Well, if I really have to choose one, then choose him.
Li Shiyan's background investigation information was soon presented to Xie Yunying.
Xie Yunying flipped through it casually without much interest, but Xie Su read it carefully.
"This man is from the Jiangnan Li family. Although he is a concubine's son, he is willing to learn and make progress, and his family background is clean."
The Xie family understands best that one should not look at others through tinted glasses.
Even though Xie Su was the empress dowager, she looked at people and things from a very objective perspective.
In her opinion, it is the same as choosing a husband for her daughter.
She looked at Li Shiyan and felt that he was good no matter how she looked at him.
Dongmei, who was standing by, reported back with a smile, saying that Li Shiyan was not only the top scholar in literature, but also an amazing martial artist.
He is both civil and military.
When Xie Su heard this, she was even more satisfied.
"Okay, it's good to know Kung Fu. It's good to know Kung Fu. We in the Xie family all know Kung Fu. There's no reason why my son-in-law doesn't know Kung Fu."
Xie Yunying had nothing to say about her own mother's eagerness to marry her off immediately.
However, she was quite curious about how a person could take care of both his cultural knowledge and his kung fu.
She found an opportunity to secretly take a look at this person to see if he was really as good as the information in the investigation.
Xie Yunying had experience living outside, so it was very easy for her to dress up as a man.
Besides, it was not a burden for her to be among men.
After all, when she was in Tongtian Pass, she had worked with her second brother's soldiers a lot.
Xie Yunying doesn't have the slightest airs of a noble lady.
With a little disguise and standing in the crowd, she would become a handsome and elegant young man.
She brought her entourage to the bookstore where Li Shiyan often frequented and secretly inquired about this new number one scholar.
She originally wanted to avoid alarming anyone, but unexpectedly, because of her appearance, she still attracted a few gay enthusiasts who happened to be in the bookstore.
They pestered her and insisted on taking her out for drinks.
Just when Xie Yunying was about to lose her temper and attack, Li Shiyan appeared.
He held her wrist and blocked the person behind him.
He sternly and righteously shouted back those people who wanted to forcibly take Xie Yunying away.
Li Shiyan was also good-looking, but the aura he carried made these men with homosexual tendencies dare not take any chances with him.
After they left in disgrace, Li Shiyan turned around and said to Xie Yunying, "It's very chaotic outside, Princess, it's better not to go out alone."
Xie Yunying groaned and was startled by Li Shiyan's address.
"you know me?"
Li Shiyan...
She obviously didn't remember.
Back then at Tongtian Pass, he was trapped under a dangerous wall, and it was she who rescued him without fear of danger.
At that time he heard the soldiers respectfully call her princess.
Later he inquired and found out that it was the emperor's biological sister, Princess Chaoyang.
Li Shiyan was just an unappreciated illegitimate son of the Li family. Even if he had some talent, he was just a person without status or wealth.
There is a huge gap between his identity and Xie Yunying's identity. The difference between them is like that between clouds and mud.
But even though he knew all this, Li Shiyan still couldn't help but want to get closer...
But at that time he was thinking that the princess had already passed the age of coming of age, and it would probably be soon before she would be looking for a prince consort.
In his current state, it is absolutely impossible for him to get close to the princess.
He could only hide his feelings for the princess deep in his heart.
I study harder and practice martial arts, hoping that one day I can stand closer to her.
Be someone who can help her, not someone for her to protect.
Finally, after several years of hard work, he was able to pass the examination to Chang'an, took part in the palace examination, and was chosen as the top scholar by the current emperor.
At this time, the princess had aged a lot due to mourning.
Young talents of similar age to her have already started families. The empress dowager wanted to find a son-in-law for the princess, so she had to choose from students from other places.
For the first time, Li Shiyan felt that he had a chance, a chance to take a step further with her.
He found a painter and asked him to paint him better. Then when the Queen Mother was looking for a young man to paint her, he would send his painting to her...
Xie Yunying had no idea about all of the above.
She didn't expect that the new top scholar she came to see actually knew her.
And he also helped himself.
Xie Yunying is not the kind of naive girl who would immediately feel moved and grateful if someone extends a helping hand.
She looked at Li Shiyan suspiciously, trying to figure out why he knew her identity.
Li Shiyan explained, "I have seen the princess before."
"You've seen me? When?"
She really didn't remember.
Li Shiyan glanced at the crowded bookstore and said in short, "The princess once saved me."
Xie Yunying???
Not impressed at all.
But she did remember Li Shiyan because of what happened today.
To be on the safe side, Xie Yunying returned to the palace and asked someone to investigate.
Look at the people today, are they deliberately arranged by Li Shiyan?
Don't think she is stupid, she also knows that there are not so many coincidences in the world.
However, the people who went to investigate came back and told her that those people didn't really know Li Shiyan. Only then did Xie Yunying put aside her suspicions.
