Li Longji felt very resistant when he saw that Li Shangwu was relying on his old age to sell his old stuff, and was trying to force sales.
Originally, it was the best match for Li Linfu's daughter to marry a prince. This would shorten the relationship with the prime minister and allow Li Longji to control the court and officials more smoothly.
The prime minister and the emperor have become in-laws, the world will be more stable, and Li Longji will be relaxed and at ease. Li Longji himself is fun, and Yang Yuhuan will enter the palace again. From now on, he will lie drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman. How can he have time to manage the court?
Break things.
It was really satisfying to leave it to Li Linfu with confidence and boldness.
If it were another prince, Li Longji would have agreed immediately. The key was twenty-one. Li Longji couldn't explain why, but Li Longji felt that he had to be extra cautious about Li Mu's marriage.
Li Longji said coldly: "Old Prince, I am not refuting your face. It is good for Li Linfu's daughter to marry the prince. However, I am an open-minded person. I must also seek my own wishes when it comes to the marriage of my children, especially this second son.
eleven."
Seeing Li Longji's coldness, Li Shangwu felt unhappy and muttered: "I know that Twenty-one is the child of His Majesty and Concubine Wu Hui. Your Majesty should be more cautious. I understand, but Twenty-one is not young anymore, and the Prime Minister's daughter is also
If you have not insulted him, why is Your Majesty so hesitant?"
Li Shangwu really wanted to say something unpleasant, but you, Li Longji, said something nice. What's so special about Twenty-One? Everyone knows that you and Concubine Wu Hui have a good relationship.
But what did you do when Concubine Wu Hui died? Even Li Hao's wife wanted to snatch her away to serve you. Isn't Li Hao the biological child of you and Concubine Wu Hui?
Such disgusting words about Li Longji were on Li Shangwu's lips. Li Shangwu could have blurted them out and disgusted Li Longji to death.
Fortunately, Li Shangwu was helping Li Linfu today, and he knew not to be too presumptuous. After enduring it again and again, Li Longji still didn't know what to do.
When Li Longji saw that Li Shangwu looked ugly, he was really afraid that the old guy would bring up the old things again and fall out with him again.
Now, Li Yi and Xu Jiyuan are under the control of the Forbidden Army. Li Longji has given many old princes a lot of rewards, temporarily blocking their mouths. If they continue to mess around, Li Longji really can't bear it.
Li Longji forced a smile and asked: "Old Prince, you care so much about Twenty-One, what do you think of this child's character and ability?"
Li Shangwu immediately replied: "Your Majesty, this little bastard, Twenty-One, is very clever. With just a few words, he coaxed a bunch of us old guys into running around. But he has a very good temper for me and is a good grandson."
Li Longji laughed. Li Mu fooled these old guys and was still liked. Li Longji's mood suddenly improved again.
Li Longji continued to ask: "Old Prince, it's rare for you to recognize Twenty-One. Among my more than twenty princes, which one can rival Twenty-One?"
Li Shangwu was stunned and asked: "Why does your Majesty ask this? Your prince, I don't dare to make any comments. Please don't cheat me and say that I interfere in your family affairs. I am too lazy to worry about that."
Li Longji said: "It's just a chat about family matters. Why should the old prince be nervous? Your evaluation must be the most fair."
Li Shangwu chuckled, feeling that Li Longji valued him, his old face was shining, and he was no longer taboo.
"Your Majesty, I won't be polite if you force me to comment. I don't think any of your Majesty's princes can compare to Twenty-One. He is filial, scheming, and knows how to get into trouble. Even if he cheats us, we are a gang
The old guy is willing to do it. Hahaha, he is a good grandson."
Li Longji asked further: "I won't talk about other princes. Doesn't the prince also fall in the eyes of the old prince?"
Li Shangwu ridiculed: "Li Heng, this grandson, is far behind compared to Twenty-One. He is full of big principles, but he only knows how to put on airs and scare people, but his heart is very empty."
Li Longji pondered: "You all say this about Li Heng? Is he so worthless?"
Li Shangwu immediately stopped him and said: "Your Majesty, I will discuss the matter. What I am talking about now is my good grandson. Don't think that I am dissatisfied with the prince. The prince was selected by your majesty. I will not participate in your court affairs. Don't bring me any trouble."
Li Longji smiled and said: "Why is this? It's just a joke, don't take it seriously." Li Longji said this, and he also thought of Li Heng. It turned out to be as Li Shangwu said. Li Heng felt very empty. Li Longji couldn't think of it.
Up Li Heng any benefits.
Li Longji sighed softly.
While the two were talking, Gao Lishi came in and whispered to Li Longji: "His Royal Highness the Twenty-first Prince and Mr. Li's daughter, their horoscopes are consistent, so they are a perfect match."
Li Longji was a little surprised and asked: "Really?"
Gao Lishi said: "This is a huge matter. How dare I lie? Your Majesty, please take a closer look."
Li Longji was silent for a while and said: "Just giving a marriage to someone who is twenty-one? Isn't it a little hasty?"
Gao Lishi didn't dare to answer, but Li Shangwu heard clearly and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, take a look, I will say, this is an absolutely good marriage, don't rush it, my good grandson will be more stable and mature when he has a wife, I
First of all, I would like to congratulate His Majesty!"
Li Longji nodded, shook his head, and said: "Old Prince, I agree to this for the time being, but I will not be in the capital on the 21st. I will make a decision when he comes back. The old Prince will not blame me, right?"
Li Shangwu was stunned and asked: "Not in the capital on the 21st? Have you gone on a sightseeing trip? This little bastard, if a beautiful woman doesn't want it, why is he just spinning the ball blindly? It will delay important things."
Li Longji smiled and said: "I love you deeply but I hate you too much. Well, Twenty-One recently invented a lightning rod. He is going around to inspect tall buildings and install lightning rods. I sent him on a mission."
Li Shangwu nodded and said: "That's about right. When he comes back, let him get a few for my house. I heard that this lightning rod is very interesting."
Li Longji smiled and said: "When he comes back on the 21st, I will ask him to kowtow to the old prince and do some work."
Li Longji said and stood up with a smile on his face. Li Shangwu understood that Li Longji was annoyed, so he wisely stood up and left.
Li Shangwu took two steps, turned back and warned: "Your Majesty, the wedding on the 21st cannot be postponed. Haven't you been offering sacrifices to heaven recently to pray for blessings? As soon as this event is over, we will get married on the 21st, and use a happy event to counteract the bad luck of God.
."
Li Longji hesitated and prevaricated: "It's easy for the old prince to leave. This matter will be discussed later, and we will discuss it later."
After Li Shangwu left, Li Longji asked Gao Lishi: "Xiao Gao, do you think it is the best time for me to grant a marriage to the daughter of Twenty-One and Li Linfu?"
Gao Lishi said: "The twenty-first prince is kind-hearted, filial and sincere. Your Majesty has granted you a marriage. It is a great joy!"
Li Longji frowned and said: "Twenty-one is very fond of me. Now that I have no official title and no title, I am hastily granted a marriage. I am always unhappy. Why don't I give Twenty-one an errand to do first?"
Gao Lishi hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty has made a decision, I dare not say anything."
Li Longji said: "Who wants you to talk too much? Go and tell Li Linfu to come in. Regarding the twenty-one things, I'd better listen to Li Linfu's thoughts."
Gao Lishi agreed and hurried out to pass on the message.
At this time, Li Linfu came back from the morning meeting and was blocked at the second door. Li Tengkong had already persuaded Mr. Jiang, and the two of them were waiting for Li Linfu to come back.
When Li Tengkong saw Li Linfu, he acted coquettishly and dragged Li Linfu into his room.
Li Linfu came in and saw Mrs. Jiang was there. Li Linfu was all smiles, "You mother and daughter are too unreserved. Such a good daughter is so anxious to get married. I'm not ashamed."
Li Tengkong pouted, pressed Li Linfu on the chair, and hugged Li Linfu's neck from behind.
"Dad, why are you talking about your daughter like that? Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to get married? Now you are teasing me. You often educate your daughter that you have to strive for your own happiness and control your destiny in your own hands?"
Li Linfu turned around in surprise and asked, "Have I ever said this?"
Li Tengkong chuckled.
Mrs. Jiang asked: "Master, don't show off, Kong'er can't wait anymore, and you still want to make fun of her. Is there any result? Can you give me an accurate answer?"
Li Linfu said with a smile: "You think you are the only ones who are worried, but I am worried too. The twenty-first prince has such a good character that no one else in the Tang Dynasty can find. He is also a great benefactor to my whole family. Needless to say, his identity is like this."
Chenglong Kuaishu, can I let him run away?"
Li Tengkong said angrily: "Dad, you have praised him to the sky. Is he that good?"
Li Linfu said with a smile: "You don't know, don't you? You need me to say it? You think my father is blind, but my little actions of yours have already been seen by me."
Li Tengkong blushed with embarrassment and lowered his head in silence. Jiang asked, "Master, please tell me the result?"
Li Linfu coughed twice and said: "Don't worry, I have asked Wang Fei to prepare a big gift. Yesterday I went to ask Prince Li Shangwu to come forward to mediate with Kong'er. The prince readily agreed. At this time, the prince should be with his majesty.
In the afternoon, happy things will come."
Mrs. Jiang said: "It's great. If the old prince comes forward, your majesty will definitely agree. We will have support in the future and marry into the royal family. From now on, the whole family will benefit from it."
Li Tengkong said coquettishly: "Mother, before I even have a single stroke of my horoscope, you are starting to laugh at my daughter again, and she won't obey you."
The family of three was immersed in happiness and joy, waiting for good news from Li Shangwu.
Outside the door, Wang He stretched his neck and looked inside several times, but did not dare to approach Li Tengkong's house. Li Linfu had already seen Wang He's figure in the house.
Li Linfu and his mother and daughter laughed and joked for a while, then hurriedly came out, followed by Wang Zhi, and they walked towards the Moon Courtyard.
Li Linfu asked: "Looking at your happy face, where is the good news?"
Wang Fei said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the flying pigeons in the east are sending messages. The matter has been settled. There will be double happiness today."
