Chapter 68 Don't even want to die in order to eat soft rice?
"The news about Master Qi has spread, and the Li family should get the news tomorrow at the latest."
Hearing this, the housekeeper wiped the bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead and gasped.
No one knows how busy he is today.
There are things inside the house and things outside the house... One person can do the work of eight people.
"That's good!"
Zhou Yuan leaned back on the chair, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
From this moment on, Li Mo is the third son-in-law of the Zhou family. This is something that no one can deny.
"But Master...if Li Mo wakes up...and Miss..."
Seeing Zhou Yuan's demeanor, the housekeeper was worried and puzzled.
Anyway, he is not very optimistic about this method.
Since Li Mo can marry, he can definitely divorce... Judging from what happened in the Li Mansion, Li Mo still has a bit of a literary character.
"You mean Li Mo will divorce his wife?"
Zhou Yuan held the tea cup and took a small sip.
"Yes, sir!"
The butler did not deny it.
"Get divorced...it would be better if he divorced!"
Zhou Yuan slowly put down the tea cup and looked at the butler.
"Ah? It's better to take a break...Master...this..."
The housekeeper was stunned.
If that's the case, why do you need to put so much effort into organizing this wedding?
"If Li Mo really divorces Yurou, it proves that Yurou is not Kefu's life! Do you understand?"
Zhou Yuan said calmly.
Anyway, this wedding is fine for the Zhou family. If Li Mo accepts it, he will become the Zhou family's third son-in-law. If he doesn't accept it, he will divorce his three daughters, which will help them eliminate the rumors about the husband.
"My master is still smart! I worry too much about this slave."
After thinking for a moment, the housekeeper gradually understood what Zhou Yuan meant.
"Okay, let's go down! Wait at the attic early tomorrow to see Li Mo's reaction first."
Waving his hand, Zhou Yuan signaled to the butler that he could leave.
After being tired for several days, I was finally able to have a good sleep.
"Yes, sir!"
.......
Prime Minister's Mansion, brightly lit,
Yang Guozhong returned to the mansion and sat in the lobby, his expression not very good. Today in the court hall, An Lushan was actually awarded the title of Prince of Dongping County. Not only did he guard the Northeast region, he also served as the military governor of the three regions.
What's even more irritating is that in addition to being crowned king, the emperor now has more and more trust in An Lushan. Sometimes An Lushan's memorials will go directly to the imperial study, without having to go through the Shangshu Province at all.
Such power has posed a great threat to his status.
This is the case in the court, and the world has not been peaceful recently. The newly rising Yibo Tower has not yet been able to find the master behind it.
How can I feel happy?
"Master, you are back!"
As soon as Yang Guozhong sat down, the butler came to greet him.
"Well, is there any whereabouts of the Poet Saint?"
Waving his hand, Yang Guozhong frowned and asked.
Since An Lushan can no longer be stopped in the court, he can only find a way to occupy the position of the most powerful force in the world. Only in this way can An Lushan be worried.
The most important thing for the Tianyin Sect to become the number one force in the world is the fifth ninth-grade master, Poet Saint.
"Master Qi, there is still news about the Poet Saint. There were rumors about him three years ago... But in the past three years, the whole person seems to have disappeared."
The housekeeper shook his head helplessly.
Recently, in order to find the whereabouts of the Poet Saint, the Tianyin Sect has dispatched almost all its spies, but the results are unsatisfactory.
"Disappeared...how is that possible! Keep looking! We must not let the bad guys and Mount Sumeru get the upper hand on this matter, especially Mount Sumeru!"
Yang Guozhong's expression turned cold.
"Yes, sir!"
The butler nodded hurriedly in agreement.
"By the way, is there any movement in the Yibo Building in Dongdu?"
After a pause, Yang Guozhong asked again.
"Master, the Yibo Building has been quiet a lot since Li Taibai moved in. By the way, Master, it's a coincidence... Later today, a piece of news came from the residence of Zhou Yuan, the Minister of Rites, and it was also related to Yibo.
Bolou can build some connections."
After thinking for a moment, the housekeeper whispered back.
"Huh? Zhou Yuan? How did he get involved with Yibo Lou?"
Yang Guozhong's face condensed.
"Sir, it's like this... Ever since our Prime Minister's office called off the marriage, Zhou Yuan has been running around for that husband's daughter, and today he went directly to Li Mo, the third young master of Li Chen's residence.
And this Li Mo actually had a marriage contract with the three girls of the Zhou family before."
The butler told everything he knew.
"Li Mo? What does this have to do with Yibo Tower?"
Yang Guozhong raised his eyebrows.
In fact, he already knew that the Zhou family and the Li family had a marriage contract.
"What I don't know is that Li Mo established a new branch in Dongdu three years ago and now works in Yibo Tower. He is a storyteller. Moreover, this person has a good relationship with Xue Song, the owner of Yibo Tower!
Now that Li Mo has returned to Chang'an, he disregards the rumors and marries the Zhou family, presumably to take this opportunity to further his career and enter the court."
"So that's it! This Li Mo actually risked his life just to eat soft rice!"
Yang Guozhong sneered with great disdain.
It seems that in front of the high-ranking and powerful people, everything is not that important, and even the woman of Kefu dares to marry him.
"Master, actually this Li Mo has another level of identity!"
The housekeeper nodded and said again.
"Oh? What other identity does he have?"
"Sir, in order to find out the mastermind behind Yibo Tower, the Tianyin Sect has developed Li Mo into a young deacon in the sect. It can be said that he is also one of ours now."
"Our person? He's just a little deacon and can't be considered one of our people. He can only be regarded as an informant... By the way, these are all trivial matters. Right now, the most important thing is to find the Poet Saint."
Yang Guozhong had a look of impatience on his face. A character like Li Mo was not worthy of his attention.
The Zhou Mansion has canceled the engagement, and it has nothing to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Yes, sir."
.......
It was already early summer, after the fifth watch, and the white fish belly was already showing in the east.
bridal chamber,
Li Mo and Zhou Yurou stayed up all night and talked a lot.
"Mr. Lang, it's almost dawn... You will follow me to see my father in a moment to break off the engagement."
Staring at Li Mo's handsome face, Zhou Yurou whispered.
I don't know why, but my mood at this time is more complicated than when I just opened my eyes last night. Although this Li Mo didn't have many achievements, he was elegant in manners and spoke well, which was very consistent with his future husband-in-law.
But... now...
"Um!"
Li Mo nodded.
After chatting with Zhou Yurou all night, he also gained a new understanding of this woman. In addition to her incredible appearance, she is also very kind-hearted. In this era where there is no free love, only the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers, she can be said to be the best wife.
Candidate.
However, Zhou Yuan's methods are really...disgusting.
It would have been better to ventilate him beforehand.
After the two of them finished speaking, the atmosphere in the bridal chamber fell into dead silence again.
No one knew what the other person was thinking until there was a knock on the door.
