Shouan Hall.

After hearing Emperor Shang's decision, Empress Changsun was filled with turmoil in her heart.

Your Majesty wants Murong to marry the Li family?

Trouble!

It wasn't that she didn't agree with the marriage, it was just that she had met the Li family's legitimate son several times and knew his temper very well.

If he doesn't like it, even if His Majesty proposes the marriage, he will not compromise.

Moreover, Murong's temperament was influenced by her brother and she would not accept anything he did.

If these two people don't agree, there will definitely be some trouble.

However, no one can violate His Majesty's will.

"Queen."

Emperor Shang watched his wife's changing face in front of him and said calmly, "What do you think?"

"His Majesty."

Queen Changsun came back to her senses, her face darkened, and said, "I think it is inappropriate. Murong is also a princess of our Shang Dynasty, so how can she marry the son of a merchant family? Even if the legitimate son of the Li family has the name of a national scholar,

, this is not fame, the legitimate son of the Li family is still a commoner after all."

"oh?"

After hearing the Queen's answer, Emperor Shang had a strange look on his face and said, "I thought you would approve of this marriage. I heard that the Li family's legitimate son and the fourth son have a close friendship. Moreover, Queen, you have just expressed your disapproval of the Li family."

The legitimate son's evaluation is not even low, so why do you not agree to this marriage now?"

"Appreciation is appreciation, but it is an indisputable fact that he comes from a merchant family."

Empress Changsun said sternly, "Murong has a distinguished status, and his future consort must at least be the son of a prince. How can he marry the son of a merchant family? Your Majesty, please think twice."

Emperor Shang couldn't help but frown when he saw the queen's attitude.

Unexpectedly, the queen would object so firmly.

Regarding Murong's matter, he could not completely ignore the attitude of the empress and the eldest grandson's family. It seemed that he could only postpone it.

Thinking about this.

Emperor Shang nodded and said, "The queen allows me to think about this matter again. It's getting late. The queen should go back and rest first."

"Concubine, please retire."

Queen Changsun stood up, bowed respectfully, then turned and left.

Outside Shouan Hall, the eldest grandson walked out, his expression becoming more solemn.

Judging from His Majesty's tone, he has not given up the idea of ​​marrying Murong. He must make plans in advance.

Speaking of which, Murong and Professor Li had met many times, and neither of them seemed to have any feelings for each other.

Again, she is not opposed to this marriage, but she does not want the marriage between the two to become a trigger for complete confrontation between the Li family and the royal family.

The next day.

Li Garden, inner courtyard.

A boy walked over quickly and delivered a secret letter.

In the courtyard, Li Ziye was practicing his sword.

Therefore, the red candle takes over for me.

At first, Hongzhu didn't pay too much attention to it, but after reading the contents of the secret message, her expression changed instantly.

Too bad!

"Xiao Ziye, stop practicing, something happened!"

Hongzhu looked at Li Ziye in the courtyard and said.

When Li Ziye heard this, he immediately stopped, stepped forward, and asked, "What's wrong? Where did the information come from?"

"Royal Palace."

Hongzhu said solemnly, "It was sent by the hidden stake we planted next to Emperor Shang."

Li Ziye took the secret letter, took a look at it, and his expression darkened.

It's really cruel.

Even his own daughter is willing to give up!

"The Queen has not agreed yet, maybe there is a turning point." Hongzhu reminded.

"Um."

Li Ziye nodded and said, "Even Emperor Shang cannot completely ignore the attitude of the eldest grandson family. I believe there will be news from the Queen soon."

"Young Master."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man walked quickly outside the inner courtyard and said respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, please come to the house to have a brief talk with me."

"knew."

Li Ziye responded.

Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here.

It seems that the queen is also starting to worry.

"Sister Hongzhu, I'll go to His Highness the Fourth Prince."

After saying that, Li Ziye walked out of the inner courtyard without any further delay.

The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Half an hour later.

Li Ziye was led directly to the backyard by his servants.

In the courtyard.

Mu Bai is waiting.

"Your Highness."

Li Ziye came over, looked at the fourth prince in the courtyard, and said, "What happened?"

"event."

Mu Bai looked solemn and said, "Brother Li, come with me."

Then, the two entered the room together.

"Father wants to arrange a marriage between you and Murong."

In the room, Mu Bai did not mince words and said directly, "However, the queen mother did not agree."

Li Ziye narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty really thinks highly of me, the son of a merchant family."

"After all, the Li family is not an ordinary merchant family, and judging from my father's attitude, I won't give up this idea easily."

Mu Bai said seriously, "As a friend, Brother Li, I would like to seriously ask, is it possible for you and Murong to be together?"

"No."

Li Ziye shook his head and said, "Every time the Ninth Princess and I meet, Your Highness is always there. It should be obvious that the Ninth Princess and I are only friends at best."

When Mu Bai heard this, he sighed softly and said, "To be honest, Brother Li, Murong's answer is almost exactly the same as yours."

"Can't the Queen suppress this matter?" Li Ziye asked.

"Queen Mother, the most you can do is delay."

Mu Bai said helplessly, "If my father insists on getting married, my mother will not be able to do anything."

Li Ziye was silent, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Indeed, who dares to resist the emperor's will?

Royal engagement is really an old-fashioned and troublesome method.

After finally solving Sister Youwei's trouble, now it's his turn again.

That old fox, Emperor Shang, really didn't want to let the Li family live in peace for a moment.

Why didn’t Tantai Jingyue kill that old guy back then?

"Brother Li, I heard that you have been very close to the little princess of the Wang family in Guanshan recently. Is it true?" Mu Bai seemed to have remembered something and asked.

"Fake."

Li Ziye came back to his senses and said, "I have only seen him three times in total. Moreover, I was entrusted by Princess Guanshan, so I had to do it. You were also present at that time."

In this era, the most unbearable thing is marriage. The decisive battle between him and Huo Lin'er is right in front of him, so how can he be in the mood to think about such nonsense.

"I thought Brother Li and the little princess could get together." Mu Bai said with emotion.
