Wang An finally rescued Li Yan. First, he was born in the Wang family in Taiyuan, which made Xiao Yu, who valued his family very much, attach great importance to him. Second, Xiao Yu's eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, in the name of Wen Xin, was born in Taiyuan Wang family, so Xiao Yu showed great enthusiasm for Wang An and even had no time to pay attention to Li Yan.

After politely speaking for a while, Xiao Yu did not forget what Wang An said just now, so he quickly asked, "Qiuhong, you just said that Liu Lang had a last resort, but you don't know what this problem is?"

Qiu Hong is the name of Wang An. Xiao Yu's daughter-in-law Wang and Wang An are of the same generation. Therefore, Wang An is also Xiao Yu's younger generation, so Xiao Luo calls the other party's name.

"This..." Wang An said this and looked at Wen Xin next to him, then turned to Xiao Yu and smiled, "Old Duke Xiao, there is a garden on the right side of the Prince Qi's Mansion, and there are just a few plum blossoms in full bloom. Why not set up wine and food in the warmth of the garden? How about we drink and talk while enjoying the plum blossoms?"

Xiao Yu thought that Wang An had something to say in front of his granddaughter, and the other party was obviously Li Yan's confidant, so he must know the whole story of everything. Since that's the case, there was no need for Li Yan to explain it personally. In addition, Xiao Yu also knew that Li Yan was too jealous and might be fooled by the other party if he was not careful, so it was more at ease to explain it by Wang An, who came from a famous family. Thinking of this, Xiao Yu stopped refusing, turned around and taught Li Yan a lesson, and then left.

Seeing Xiao Yu leave, Li Yan and Wen Xin both breathed a sigh of relief, and Wen Xin said with an apology: "Husband, grandfather has a stubborn temper. He was talking a little harder just now. Wen Xin is here to apologize to you on his behalf!"

Wen Xin said, Yingying bowed to Li Yan, but Li Yan immediately helped him up. He also smiled bitterly and said, "Wen Xin, you, I, husband and wife are one, why bother to say these things? Moreover, this is not the first time I have experienced my grandfather's temper. Although I speak a little straightforwardly, it is also out of concern for us. I understand all of these."

When Wen Xin heard his husband's words and saw the expression on his face, he couldn't help but smile. There were not many people in the Tang Dynasty who could make Li Yan so embarrassed, and his bad-tempered grandfather was one of them.

Wen Xin is now at the age of seventeen. Not only has she grown up in her figure, but her appearance is also becoming more beautiful and refined. Under this smile, she is like a deep orchid blooming in the valley, which makes Li Yan, who has long been used to her beauty, and a trace of indescribable tenderness surge in her heart.

Li Yan stretched out his arm and held Wen Xin in his arms. As a result, Wen Xin, who was not prepared at all, was shocked. Although they were husband and wife, this was a hall rather than an inner house. Not only were there maids next to him, but someone might break in at any time. Therefore, this made Wen Xin extremely uncomfortable and struggled to get up. At the same time, he said coquettishly: "Husband~, let go, this is the hall!"

"Haha~, what's wrong with the hall? This is our home. Do whatever your husband wants!" Li Yan ignored Wenxin's struggle at all. He held him and sat on his lap. The maid next to him was also very tactful, and turned around with a smirk. At the same time, someone was guarding the door of the hall to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

Wen Xin couldn't struggle, and when she saw the reaction of the maid in the palace, she felt relieved and sat down with Li Yan in his arms, but her face was still red and looked very cute.

However, Li Yan looked at Wen Xin, who was adorable in his arms, but his face gradually became solemn. Finally, he sighed slowly and asked very seriously: "Wen Xin, do you blame me?"

After hearing this, Wen Xin looked puzzled and asked, "Why did you ask this, why do you think you are so? Why do I blame you?"

Looking at Wen Xin in her arms, Li Yan took a long breath and said in a heavy tone: "Wen Xin, with my ability, I was indeed very sure to inherit the throne of the Tang Dynasty, but I voluntarily gave up this position that was within my reach. This also made you miss the position of Mother Yi Tianxia. Do you really not blame me at all?"

At first, Wen Xin's face still had a smile on her face, but after hearing her husband's words, her face became very serious. After trying to sit up straight, she replied seriously: "Husband, you and I have been husband and wife for two years. Don't you understand what Wen Xin thinks? No matter what you want to do, then do it boldly. Although I can't help much, husband, you must remember that even if the whole world does not understand you, Wen Xin will always stand behind you and support you!"

Wen Xin did not give the following answer to Li Yan's question, but the meaning she expressed in her words made Li Yan feel excited. So what if the whole world doesn't understand him? It's enough to have Wen Xin one! Thinking of this, Li Yan couldn't help but tighten his arms again.

In addition, Li Yan also thought that he had a serious illness some time ago. In order to take care of himself, Wen Xin almost broke out in dark circles. Later, he was sick, but he was busy with the Winter Games and had no time to spend more time with her and Xijun. This made Li Yan feel even more guilty.

If they feel guilty, they have to compensate. Although there are many people outside asking for a meeting, Li Yan simply pretended to be deaf and ignored everyone outside. Then he focused on spending an afternoon with Wen Xin. During dinner, the two of them rushed to Xijun's place. The three of them had a lively meal. Then Li Yan left Wen Xin to accompany Xijun there, but he went to the study in the front yard.

When Li Yan pushed open the study door, Wang An was already sitting there drinking tea. He walked up with a smile, picked up another teacup and tasted it. Then he smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Wang Fu!"

After hearing this, Wang An showed a rare smile and said, "The old Duke Xiao's temper is indeed well-deserved!"

Li Yan laughed loudly after hearing this. With Xiao Yu's bad temper, Wang An was able to persuade the other party to leave, which itself also shows Wang An's talent. However, before Li Yan finished laughing, Wang An heard Wang An say again: "Your Highness, don't be too happy first. Before Duke Xiao left, let me tell you for him that you owed them a queen of the Xiao family in Lanling!"

As a result, when Li Yan heard this, he smiled even more violently. The reason why Xiao Yu was so angry today was not only because he was really anxious for Li Yan, but also there was another important reason, that is, the position of queen who originally belonged to Wen Xin also flew away.

I think they were originally a royal family, but since the Liang Dynasty was destroyed, their Xiao family had declined. It was not until a former Queen Xiao of Sui was released that they became active again, and two outstanding figures, Xiao Xian and Xiao Yu, emerged. However, Xiao Xian's Southern Liang had been destroyed, and Xiao Yu was older. However, there was no one in the Xiao family who could take the lead. If Wen Xin could take the position of queen, then for them, it would be a chance to rise again. Even within decades, they could ensure that their Xiao family would remain the political core of the Tang Dynasty. However, this hope was shattered as Li Yan took the initiative to push the throne. It was no wonder that Xiao Yu had such a big temper.

Seeing Li Yan laughing so happily, Wang An also smiled and shook his head. Xiao Yu was famously upright, but when facing the interests of his family, he still couldn't help but reveal his nature. It seems that there is indeed no one in this world who is not really untouchable for profit!

However, after the two of them laughed, Wang An thought for a while, and his face turned solemnly and asked, "Your Highness, I admire you very much if you have the courage and determination to give up the throne, but do you know that if you do this, it is easy to give up and difficult to get away?"

Wang An only knew about this yesterday, but with the help of Li Yan, he had already recognized the essence of capital, so he did not make a fuss like other people, but he felt a little regretful.

When Li Yan heard Wang An's words, a hint of melancholy appeared on his face. After a while, he spoke: "Fu Wang, in this world, you are the only one who can understand my move to give up the throne. Even the father had only guessed a part of it, because he didn't know that after the development of industry and commerce, capital had begun to show its strength. I could even say that I could not help but do this!"

Wang An was speechless after hearing this. Li Yan said that he was unable to help but. This is indeed a fact. In fact, when he was mining the carboniferous mine, he had already slowly embarked on a path of no return. As the development of industry and commerce at that time, the human resources problem became increasingly prominent. If you want to solve this problem, you either increase the exploitation of existing workers or increase the number of workers. Li Yan did not want the people of his country to be exploited, so he had to try his best to capture slaves. The Battle of Goguryeo seemed to be accidental. In fact, the real reason was that the upper-class Guizhou capitalists in the Tang Dynasty urgently needed a large number of slaves to develop industry and commerce, which promoted the outbreak of this war.

Now with the increasing prosperity of the slave hunting industry in the Tang Dynasty, the human resources problem has been greatly alleviated, but another problem has gradually emerged, that is, the sales of industrial and commercial products. Although the Tang Dynasty has a large population, its digestibility is limited. The more prosperous the industry and commerce are, the more products it produces. If so many products are not sold, the final result will only cause the Tang Dynasty's economic crisis.

Although Li Yan was not sure about the consequences of the economic crisis in the Tang Dynasty, he was sure that it would definitely cause instability among all social classes and even conflicts of force. So in order to solve this problem, he began to design new types of sea ships early and actively developed new routes in order to enhance the overseas trade of the Tang Dynasty.

However, if he just wants to develop overseas trade, there is no need for Li Yan to turn the throne down. The reason why he made such unexpected actions is that he has a longer-term plan. Although his ideas may be a bit too worrying in the eyes of others, Li Yan knew that if he wanted temporary comfort and speed and took over the throne of the Tang Dynasty, he might bring greater turmoil to the country in the future!
