Li Garden, inner courtyard.
In Li Ziye's room.
Huanzhu, who had regained his true appearance, helped his brother change his clothes. He looked so well-behaved and nothing like the frightening underworld in the legend.
During the year in Liyuan, Huanzhu grew up a lot, became more sophisticated in people's ways, and gradually became more understanding. She seemed less indifferent than when she first came out of the mutated land.
"Handsome?"
After changing his clothes, Li Ziye looked at the girl in front of him and asked with a smile.
"Brother is the most handsome."
Huan Zhu smiled sweetly and responded.
"I just like how honest you are."
Li Ziye rubbed the hair of the girl in front of him lovingly and smiled.
The girl from his Li family is just good. Not only is she good-looking, she also talks nicely.
Completely different from those idiots outside the Li family.
"Brother."
Huanzhu stretched out her hand to straighten her brother's sleeves and asked curiously, "Is your marriage going to be finalized today?"
"Won't."
Li Ziye shook his head slightly and said, "There are rare things to live in, and you need to wait for the price. Let's take a look at the conditions they offer first. You will watch from the side during the negotiation. Learn more and see more. Come today." The people in Li Yuan are all old foxes, it will be good for you to take a look at their words and deeds."
"I see."
Huanzhu responded obediently.
Just as the two were talking, Hongzhu walked quickly outside the room and said, "Xiao Ziye, the Queen is here. She will be outside the house soon."
"finally come."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Let's go and return the pearl."
"Um."
Huanzhu nodded and walked outside with his brother.
Hongzhu watched the two people walk out and reminded, "Xiao Ziye, as you expected, people from Guanshan Palace are also here and are on their way."
“It’s fun when everyone is here.”
Li Ziye smiled, then walked to the eldest sister's room and said, "Sister Youwei, let's go."
"good."
In the room, Li Youwei crossed off an entry on the ledger, then stood up and walked out of the room, asking, "After a while, don't you need me to say anything?"
"Basically not needed."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Sister Youwei, just drink tea and look like you are doing it for a while. Leave the rest to me."
Li Youwei nodded slightly, looked back at the piles of account books in the room, and hesitated whether to take a few of them. However, the thought only flashed for a moment and was quickly suppressed.
Today we are all well-known people, so we still have to give them a little face. We can only come back and read the account books again. I will probably have to work overtime again tonight.
The three then left the inner courtyard and walked to the front yard.
At this moment, outside Li Garden, a luxurious carriage drove by and stopped in front of the mansion. Then, Queen Changsun walked out. Beside her, Queen Changsun Nanqiao accompanied her. Her orchid-like demeanor looked very different from usual.
"I've met the Queen."
In front of the house, Li Ziye and the others walked forward quickly and saluted respectfully.
"No need to be polite."
Empress Changsun looked at the legitimate son of the Li family in front of her and said softly, "I came here today because I have something to discuss with Mr. Li and Miss Li."
"Queen, please speak in the palace."
When Li Ziye heard this, he immediately moved out of the way and said respectfully.
Queen Changsun nodded and walked towards the mansion with the support of Changsun Nanqiao.
For a moment, the eldest grandson Nanqiao glanced at the young man beside him, a complex look flashed in his beautiful eyes.
This little guy is getting more and more scary.
It's like an abyss that can never be seen to the bottom. It's terrifying.
After hiding it for so many years, is it finally starting to show its fangs?
Li Ziye noticed his eldest grandson Nanqiao's gaze and grinned, as kindly and heartless as ever.
The eldest grandson Nanqiao averted his eyes and followed the queen sister beside him into Li Garden.
Behind him, the smile on Li Ziye's face softened by a third and he followed.
Soon, everyone came to the main hall, and the servants of the mansion immediately served hot tea, and then they all left.
"Professor Li, I am"
In the main hall, Empress Changsun was about to say something. Outside the hall, a servant walked quickly and saluted respectfully, "Young Master, Princess Guanshan is here."
In the hall, Queen Changsun looked startled when she heard this.
Princess Guanshan?
Why is she here?
After a brief thought, Empress Changsun looked at the legitimate son of the Li family in front of her, her eyes narrowed slightly.
The news of the proposed engagement has probably not been leaked yet, so it is too much of a coincidence that Princess Guanshan is coming at this time.
"Huanzhu, go pick up the princess." Li Ziye spoke and ordered.
"yes."
Huanzhu accepted the order, stood up immediately, and walked outside.
"Queen, what did you want to say just now?"
Li Ziye asked with a smile on his face.
"nothing."
Empress Changsun picked up the tea in front of her and said calmly, "Let's talk about it after Princess Guanshan arrives."
"That's fine."
Li Ziye nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He picked up the hot tea and waited quietly.
On the side, Li Youwei was equally bored sitting there drinking tea and posing.
In the areas where my younger brother is good at, the rest of the Li family can hardly help. The gap is too big.
Beside Queen Changsun, Changsun Nanqiao also sat quietly, saying nothing.
Not long after, in the front yard, Princess Guanshan and a woman walked in under the leadership of Huanzhu.
The woman is a well-known matchmaker in the capital. Of course, on this occasion, she is basically just a matchmaker, or at best a witness.
In front of the main hall, Princess Guanshan walked up and looked slightly condensed after seeing a few people inside.
It seemed that she came at just the right time.
"I've met the Queen."
Princess Guanshan calmed down her mind, stepped forward, saluted and said respectfully.
"Princess, there is no need to be polite."
Queen Changsun stood up, helped Princess Guanshan in front of her, and said softly.
"I've met the princess."
On the side, Li Ziye and Li Youwei also stood up and saluted.
"polite."
Princess Guanshan looked at the two of them and said, "Coming here uninvited is causing a lot of trouble. I hope Mr. Li and Miss Li won't be offended."
"It's too late for the eldest sister and I to be happy that the princess can come, so how can we be surprised?"
Li Ziye exchanged greetings, and then asked his servants to arrange seats and hot tea for Princess Guanshan.
During the seat, Princess Guanshan picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said directly without any mincing words, "Miss Li, how about we talk about something?"
"Princess, please speak."
Li Youwei put down the teacup in her hand and said.
"Mr. Li seems to have reached the age of marriage a long time ago. It's time to get married."
Princess Guanshan said calmly, "What do you think of my Rong Rong, Miss Li?"
As soon as the words fell, the whole hall fell silent.
In the main seat, Queen Changsun frowned slightly, and a strange color flashed in her eyes. This Princess Guanshan really didn't care about her daughter.
It takes a lot of courage to compete with the royal family.
The King of Guanshan and his wife are actually very different from the princes and nobles in the court.
Li Youwei was about to answer when a cold voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"Brother Li, are there so many guests in the house today?"
As he spoke, Xiao Xiao walked up to the front yard with two elders of Qinglong Sect. Three great practitioners of the Five Realms, their powerful auras were shocking.
In the hall, Queen Changsun and Princess Guanshan stared at the visitor.
Azure Dragon Saint!
Across the seat, Li Ziye took a sip of tea, his mouth slightly curved.
They're all here!
