"Dad, if my husband takes medicine and doesn't get better soon, or his situation changes, my daughter-in-law will be at your disposal!"
The confidence in Yingzi's smile seemed to be under her control. Such a confident woman has a special light that will fascinate another man.
Liu Xu saw a man's domineering and self-confidence in this woman. He, a man with a high position, did not like such a woman and preferred to be softer and more controllable.
The threat of a stronger woman will make a man feel pressured. He must be stronger than this woman in order not to become what people call a loser.
"You have to remember what you just said. If you play any tricks, I will never let you go!"
Yingzi smiled softly and said nothing again. She poured a little of the red powder from the bottle into Liu Tao's mouth, put away the bottle, and asked the maid to give their young master some water.
Liu Tao was like a vegetable, letting others manipulate him without any consciousness. Liu Xu knew that this was the effect of his learning.
After Yingzi finished feeding the powder, he stepped forward and opened the acupuncture points for his son.
Yingzi has been lurking in the ancient Xia Kingdom for these years, and has learned some linguistic skills and moves that are also the unique skills of the warriors of the ancient Xia Kingdom.
She also learned the invisibility method of her own country, but she failed to learn the skills and spells of those cultivating immortals in the ancient Xia Kingdom. She also did not learn the acupuncture method of ancient martial arts.
She used to think that the man in front of her was nothing more than that, but now she knows that if she and this man's son were better than her son.
But not as good as the man in front of me. He is indeed hotter than Mr. Jiang.
After Liu Tao's acupuncture points were removed, there was no reaction at first, but after a while, he began to open his eyes, as if he had a confused look in his eyes.
He stared blankly at the top of the mosquito net, then sat up and looked at the person standing in front of the bed.
"Dad, what's wrong with me? Why do I feel like I'm having a dream, and why is the woman in the dream so real? This girl, how did you enter my dream?"
Liu Xu found that his son seemed not to remember what happened before, as if he was sleepwalking for a while.
He thinks this is also a good thing. Forgetting the previous unpleasantness may be better than remembering the unpleasantness.
He knew the pride of his son, what would happen if he knew that the princess had seen him look crazy...!
"Well, just think of it as a dream. I won't mention the past anymore. This person is just a maid, hired by your father and me."
"Dad, why do I have such strange dreams? How come I am with this girl..."
"Nothing, you must be having a nightmare. Okay, okay, if you're fine, daddy will go out first."
Liu Xu didn't let his son continue talking, and then motioned for Yingzi to follow him and not let Yingzi be in his son's room. He didn't want something like that to happen to his son again.
"This girl, can you stay?"
When Liu Tao saw the lover of his dreams, how could he let her go away so easily? His lust came again.
Yingzi Tianxia stepped back and turned around, looking at the man who was fascinated by her charmingly. Before she made another move, such a man was fooled again.
"Bastard, you just woke up and had a good rest in your room."
How could Liu Xu let his son be fooled by this woman again? He had to find a way to get this woman away.
At this moment, I regretted bringing this woman into my son's room. I should have asked the woman to give him the medicine and not let my son see this woman.
"Daddy..."
Liu Tao's coquettish look is like that of a child of several years old. He has always been afraid of his father who dotes on him. Is he even the slightest bit afraid of his majesty?
In such a big family, the patriarch, the prime minister, and all the assets will belong to him from now on.
Of course, he knew the hegemony his father wanted, and he supported his father in his heart. He dreamed that one day he would become a prince, and a hundred years after his father, he would also be a king. His favorite thing was to have a harem of 3,000 beauties.
"Stop talking, don't leave the room, concentrate on practicing in the room."
Liu Xu did not soften his heart. Being soft-hearted at this time will cause trouble in the future. His son's personality is like other young masters, but he is a little more lecherous. Men are like that. As long as they leave more heirs to the Liu family.
But this woman is definitely not this woman. This woman will only harm her son.
Liu Xu felt that this dangerous woman staying in the house was definitely a hidden danger, and he had to act accordingly during the cooperation.
Liu Tao sighed and watched the beauty go away. His father put him under house arrest. When the guard at the door closed the door, only he and the maid were left in the room.
His lust arose again, and this maid was always by his side. She had already been taken into the room and became a bed-warming maid.
"come over……"
"Master, I won't let any slave come near you."
"Don't you listen to what I say? I'm already here, can father see me?"
How could a weak maid have the strength to resist the tempted young master in front of her.
The guard guarding the door had to keep his eyes open and pretended not to hear.
It seems that I am used to hearing this kind of sound.
Liu Xu took Yingzi out of his son's yard and asked more guards to guard his son's yard.
Then someone took Yingzi to live in a courtyard, and he ignored the woman and walked out.
As a prime minister, how can he let trivial matters at home slow him down? He has been at home on leave these days, and it is time to take off his vacation.
Liu Xu took sick leave at home, partly to avoid being laughed at by others, and partly because I was really afraid that my son would be poisoned by others.
He wanted to stay away from other people's eyes for a few days as a buffer. Now he went to the king's palace again. It was time to talk about things again.
Of course Liu Xu did this because he wanted to firmly hold on to his rights.
He has not been to court in the past few days, and there has been no news from the court. His informant informed him.
The weak king knew that he had done a lot of tricks, but he didn't dare to target him openly.
Of course Liu Xu understood the king's thoughts. He needed Ye Tian and the help of the patron saint family, but he and the Shenglao faction were supported. The three families restrained each other. Only a fool would not know this kind of power play.
Only stupid loyal people are loyal to him.
It's a pity that there are such stupid people. The Patron Saint family has always been stupid. They are more powerful than these two families, but they stupidly protect the weak king.
Of course, that old guy Ge Lao knows his thoughts and has the same ambition as him.
Both of them were suppressed by the patron saint. They wore a pair of trousers with him before and had the same idea, but the old guy was too cunning and did not join in with others.
This time, he also turned to the Patron Saint family. Liu Xu was the most worried now, and the two of them became collaborators.
Regardless of whether it will take away the kingdom, it is not good for him who wants to rise to power.
This is what Liu Xu hates the most. He has worked hard for so many years and doesn't want to waste his efforts.
Liu Xu met Tang Weiguo's carriage on the way to the court and asked the driver to stop the other's carriage.
Tang Weiguo didn't pay attention to the carriage, and the carriage suddenly stopped, almost causing him to hit his head. Fortunately, with his skills, he, a Confucian cultivator, was able to sit steadily in the carriage.
"You..." The coachman was startled, and after taking a closer look, he originally wanted to scold the other party but could only stop talking when he saw the other party's carriage.
Liu Xu had already opened the curtains at this time and looked from the curtains of the carriage to the position of the curtains of the other party's carriage.
Tang Weiguo had already seen the other party's carriage clearly through the curtains, and did not want to open the curtains and see Liu Xu's face.
"Tang Weiguo, you don't dare to come out to see me! You must be feeling guilty! Tsk, tsk, your old face can't be seen by anyone anymore!"
When Tang Weiguo heard Liu Xu's shameless words in the carriage, he sneered: "Liu Xu, who has no face to see people? You have been hiding at home these days and have no face to come out to see people! Why did you go crazy when you came out!"
Liu Xu's beard was so angry that he rolled his eyes: "Tang Weiguo, you are talking nonsense. You must be responsible for what you say. If we have the ability, we can fight alone."
Tang Weiguo snorted and said in a somewhat disdainful tone: "Are I afraid of you? Who doesn't know who you are? Are you crazy today for being so arrogant with me?"
Liu Xu and Tang Weiguo had always fought in the court. They did it openly in front of the king. Only people from the Guardian family, from old generals to young generals, would not be like them. They were not literati. When people quarrel, they always do practical things.
They have been bickering and fighting for decades, always like two roosters, never convinced of each other.
Their two carriages were parked on the street, and it was still the bustling imperial city. They didn't know each other, and they thought that Liu Xu, who looked like he was going crazy, was just a wealthy man.
Their two luxurious carriages parked on the road, blocking the traffic. People in the shops on both sides watched their bickering without buying anything.
Everyone is also curious about this rich man who has never shown his face. What kind of celebration do they have?
The onlookers haven't met anyone they know yet. They just listened to their quarrels and just called each other shameless and crazy. They didn't fully understand the situation. Those watching the fun missed these two people even more. Really fight.
As time passed, Liu Xu had forgotten what he was going to do.
Tang Weiguo was not in a hurry to go to the palace, so the two of them sang.
…
King Long Hong, who was in the palace, just went to the morning court to meet with the civil and military officials. In the ancient Xia Kingdom, the world of immortal cultivation, civil officials and military officials were almost the same, and they practiced in their own ways.
Just like King Long Hong, who is also an immortal cultivator, the cultivation techniques passed down by his ancestors are not as good as the previous ones. His generation is a little better and has already achieved the golden elixir.
In the past twenty years, he had been busy with state affairs and had not made any progress in his cultivation. Moreover, there were too many beauties in the harem, which had emptied his body.
Long Hong's eyes were a little black and blue, which was not a symptom of staying up late. His face was also a little swollen. When others saw him like this, they thought he was working hard until midnight every day.
In fact, this is not the case. In addition to gathering beauties in the harem, Long Hong also practices cultivation. It's just that there may be some problems with his body, a bit like premature aging.
Long Hong has always asked the imperial doctors to treat his minor physical ailments, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Looking at the huge country, he is afraid that he will not be able to sit in this position two hundred years later with this state of his body.
People around him were looking at him with eager eyes, and his sons were not living up to expectations. Long Hong was worried that the king's position would be robbed, and thousands of years of tombs would be destroyed in his hands.
Recently, I heard that there is a kind of elixir called the best elixir for cultivating immortals. This elixir is like the time elixir, and it may improve his physical quality.
Long Hong considered that the national treasury was not that rich, and he had spent all his money on finding beauties and elixirs over the years.
His children also use a lot of money. Even though he is the king, he does not let them use all the money in the treasury.
In order to buy the best elixir, Long Hong notified Tang Weiguo and Ye Tian to see him.
Liu Xu, Long Hong automatically ignored this person, and asked for sick leave again, choosing to ignore him.
Long Hong discovered that recently the patron saint family, the Ye family, and Ge Lao had become a group and were very harmonious in the court. The previous balance of the three families was tilted to one side, which threatened his throne.
Guo met Ye Tianshang, and there were old generals or generals around him. Their cultivation levels were so high, and they felt a strong sense of threat.
Ye Tian is young and more powerful than middle-aged people like them, and he has long been unable to see clearly his cultivation level.
The princess has been coming to him constantly in the past two days, always mentioning that she wants to marry Ye Tian and asking him to grant her a marriage.
Long Hong didn't want his daughter to marry Ye Tian, although the marriage between the two families might protect his country.
He didn't want the prince-in-law to seize the throne. Ye Tian's abilities were too strong and difficult to master.
On the contrary, it was Tang Feiyang, one of the three candidates. This young man had a pretty good character. Although his ability was not as high as that of Ye Tian, he was much better than Liu Tao.
So he suggested to Princess Long Feifeng that she choose the consort Tang Feiyang, but unfortunately the princess refused.
"Dad, I want Ye Tian."
Long Feifeng once saw a beautiful woman beside Ye Tian. She was a commoner, but she and Ye Tian were brothers and sisters. Moreover, they had a strong friendship.
Standing together to return the beauty of a talented man to a beautiful woman, Long Feifeng originally chose the three families, but this time seeing Liu Tao's trashy appearance, Ye Tian became a more ideal husband in his heart.
She had a feeling that she would not marry anyone who was not a king, and she thought angrily in her heart that she, a princess, was not as good as a commoner woman.
"Princess, Ye Tian is too powerful. I'm afraid you will be wronged. You won't be able to suppress him."
"Isn't there still a father?" Long Feifeng acted coquettishly at the king, holding his arm and shaking him.
Long Hong was a little dizzy when his daughter shook him, but he did not relent and agreed.
"Ye Tian is too powerful and a powerful figure in his family. They are one of the top ten families. If they have ambitions to fight for the throne, my father and your brothers will not be able to resist them."
Long Feifeng was moved after hearing her father's words. If she became the queen:
"Hey, no matter whether Ye Tian becomes the king or not, he is still your son-in-law. A son-in-law is half the sky. My father can't just pass the throne to his brothers, why not just pass it to me?"
Long Hong glared: "What are you talking about? How can you hand over millions of years of foundation to others? You are a daughter of a family. Don't think about so many things. Just marry Tang Feiyang as Gu said. His father is The Grand Bachelor of the Cabinet is worthy of you, the princess."
Long Feifeng was unwilling to compromise, saying that a man like Tang Feiyang was not bad enough as a male favorite, and if she wanted to marry a man, he must be as powerful as Ye Tian.
Long Hong fell out and told the princess not to leave the room and cause trouble for him everywhere.
