“Oh? I hope the emperor’s sister will make it clear.” Li Hongji looked up at Li Yongyi, his eyes filled with jokes.
“Situ Zhouzong.” Li Yongyi faintly spitted out the four words Situ Zhouzong from his mouth, and Li Hongji’s expression suddenly changed.
“Bang–!” Li Hongji slapped the table with both hands and made a loud bang.
“Hmph, it’s indeed that old man from Zhou Zong!!” Li Hongji’s face turned pale and his voice was extremely cold.
Li Jing had long disliked him. Li Hongji understood this matter clearly, but Li Hongji never expected that Li Jing would actually find a backer like Zhou Zong for Li Congjia.
I think Li Jing is also afraid of himself. After all, Li Hongji now has military power, is quite popular with the people, and has a noble status. He is in an orderly manner in his old age. Li Jing cannot surpass himself and appoint Li Congjia as the crown prince.
However, if Li Congjia had Zhou Zong, a famous old minister, as his father-in-law, as his father-in-law, then things would be difficult.
Zhou Zong entered politics as the Emperor Taizu Li Sheng, and later became the prince’s tutor. His disciples were spread all over the court and the world knew the reputation of Zhou Zong of Southern Tang.
If Li Congjia married Zhou Ehuang, the legitimate daughter of Zhou Zong, and Zhou Zong had no son, he would definitely put his hopes on Zhou Ehuang and Li Congjia.
“I wonder how my brother wants to stop this marriage?” Li Yongyi looked at Li Hongji leisurely, his eyes full of jokes.
Li Hongji is really brave and lacks wisdom, otherwise he would not have been fooled by Xiao Ran.
Thinking of this, a hint of mockery flashed through Li Yongyi’s eyes. Is Xiao Ran? Haha…
“Stop it? I wonder what advice does the emperor girl have?” Li Hongji knew that when it comes to scheming people, he was far inferior to Li Yongyi’s sister.
After hearing Li Hongji’s voice, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Yongyi’s mouth and said lightly, “This matter… is simple.”
“Oh? Simple?” Li Hongji looked at Li Yongyi, his eyes full of doubts. He thought he was not a fool, but he also understood that this matter was not simple.
As long as Li Jing gives the order, it will be useless no matter how hard they struggle, because… the emperor, a word is gone.
“Why are you panicking with your brother? Don’t these sixth brothers already have someone you like?”
Hearing this, Li Hongji narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded to signal Li Yongyi to continue.
Seeing this, Li Yongyi smiled faintly and then said, “Brother, if the sixth brother insisted on not marrying the daughter of Zhou Zong, I wonder what the Zhou family would think?”
Looking at the faint smile on Li Yongyi’s lips, Li Hongji narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said, “I don’t know what to ask for when the emperor helps me like this?”
Li Hongji doesn’t think that Li Yongyi is a saint.
Sure enough, after Li Hongji finished speaking,Li Yongyi said, “When the new emperor of the Later Zhou ascended the throne, his father will definitely choose a princess to go to Houzhou… My sister doesn’t want to go to Bianjing.”
“Don’t want to go to Bianjing? Do you know that you are already at the age of getting married?” Li Hongji looked at Li Yongyi in a little shocked and suspicious. If Li Yongyi said that Li Yongyi was to avenge her mother, she could have taken action against Queen Zhong and escaped unconsciously. Why did she delay herself like this?
There are more and more things happening recently. Sometimes, Li Hongji can’t see which person he is around him.
“Brother, those who accomplish great things are not careful. My sister still has many things to do in Jinling, so she doesn’t want to leave so soon.” Moreover, she doesn’t want to go to Bianjing to see that person and his concubines at all.
