Great commercial capital.
The third son of the Li family returned to the city, and the news spread quickly.
Immediately afterwards, the news that the third son of the Li family was disabled and his hair was completely white also spread to various mansions.
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
No one thought that the legitimate son of the Li family, who had single-handedly brought the Li family to such heights, would suddenly fall into this state.
"Is the news true?"
In the Shou'an Palace, on the bed, Emperor Shang, who was still recovering from his injuries, heard the information sent by the Shadow Guard. He slowly opened his eyes and asked.
"Absolutely true."
The shadow guard who reported the news respectfully responded, "We have spies in the city, and the Li family's legitimate son has no real energy fluctuations on his body. He is undoubtedly a useless person."
"In the divine realm, there is no way to recover."
Upon hearing this, Shang Huang showed a sneer on his face and said, "It seems that he has run out of gas."
The determination to use force to save one's life is quite impressive.
"Come here, Queen Xuan, come and see me."
After thinking for a short time, Emperor Shang spoke and ordered.
"yes!"
Outside the palace, a chamberlain took the order and left in a hurry, heading to Weiyang Palace to invite someone.
At the same time, in Weiyang Palace, Queen Changsun also received the news from outside the palace and was shocked.
"Mother."
On the side, Murong suppressed the shock in his heart and said, "Can Professor Li still be able to suppress the Li family in a situation like this?"
Once a behemoth like the Li family is in chaos, there is no doubt that the entire business will be in chaos.
"Since he dares to show up like this, there is no need to worry within the Li family for the time being."
Empress Changsun said solemnly, "But, his cultivation in the fifth realm has been ruined like this, and his hair is completely white. Does this mean that he will not live long?"
This is the most terrifying problem.
"What do you mean, Queen Mother?"
Murong heard his mother's words and said with a shocked look on his face, "Li Jiaoxi, it is possible that he is not going to die soon?"
"Just a guess."
Empress Changsun looked outside and said solemnly, "Presumably, this is also the question your father wants to know most."
"The Queen."
At this moment, outside the Weiyang Palace, the servant who delivered the letter came quickly and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty has decreed that Queen Xuan should go to the Shou'an Palace immediately."
After hearing the order from the chamberlain, Empress Changsun stood up and walked towards the outside of Weiyang Palace without saying anything.
Not long after, Queen Changsun walked quickly in front of Shou'an Palace, entered the palace, bowed Yingying, and said respectfully, "I have met Your Majesty."
"Queen."
On the bed, Emperor Shang looked at his first wife in front of him and said, "I am going to arrange a marriage between Murong and Prince Gan Yang. What do you think?"
"His Majesty!"
Empress Changsun looked shocked, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"The Prince of Gan Yang is the heir to the hereditary and irreplaceable Marquis. It doesn't mean he has insulted Murong."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "Queen, this matter has been delayed for a long time and cannot be delayed any longer."
He was sure that the life that the Li family's legitimate son had tried so hard to save would not last long. This was the best opportunity for the royal family to take over the Li family.
Moreover, Murong's marriage at this time can allow the world to see that the royal family's great kindness has not changed in any way because of the downfall of its ministers.
It’s worth it!
In front of the bed, Queen Changsun looked at Emperor Shang in front of her, clenching her hands tightly and feeling weak in her heart.
She knew very well what it meant for Murong to get married at this time. Their Majesty thought of all the benefits, but he did not think of the sacrifice of his daughter.
Almost at the same time.
In the inner courtyard of Li Garden, Li Ziye was sitting on a machine chair. In his right hand, two chess pieces were spinning around, black and white, constantly interlaced.
"Little Four."
After a brief thought, Li Ziye spoke and asked, "If you wanted to seize power from the Li family, how would you choose?"
On the side, Xiao Si hesitated for a moment and replied, "Second Uncle's place."
"too slow."
Li Ziye replied, "Li Junsheng has been away from the Li family for more than ten years. Even if he can come back now, many people will not recognize him. Relying on Li Junsheng is not enough to overthrow the Li family."
Having said this, Li Ziye paused and said calmly, "Actually, the fastest and most effective way is to let people from the royal family take over the Li family openly. In this way, the royal merchants of the Li family will soon be Cannibalized by the royal family, especially after my death.”
"Ninth Princess!"
After hearing what the young master said, Xiao Si seemed to have thought of something and said with a shocked expression.
"good."
Li Ziye said calmly, "If it were me, I would definitely take this step and let the royal princess marry. While winning a good reputation for the royal family, the royal family can also legitimately intervene in the Li family's business. Once I die, Murong , will become the second eldest grandson Nanqiao, taking charge of the clan as a woman."
The royal family has wanted to make this move of Ninth Princess many times, and now is the best time.
"Young Master, is there any solution to this situation?" Xiaosi clenched his fists and asked.
"No solution." Li Ziye denied.
"Isn't it okay to tarnish your reputation like last time?" Xiaosi asked with a heavy look.
"Do you think people in the world still care if I go to a brothel now?"
Li Ziye said calmly, "Now and then, even if the half-disabled Prince Ganyang is drunk, the slander cannot be as strong as before. People will always have compassion."
Previously, when he was just the son of a merchant, there were many obstacles in the way of the princess's marriage. If there was any accident, it would be difficult to actually facilitate it.
After all, a royal marriage requires a reasonable reason, especially when the status of the two parties is so different.
However, it was different now. As the prince of Ganyang Hou, he could marry the princess without any hindrance. His embarrassment only served to highlight the emperor's grace.
"What should we do?"
Xiao Si asked. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he asked, "Young Master, since you came back on your own initiative, have you already thought that the royal family would do this?"
"There is indeed this speculation."
Li Ziye said calmly, "However, we have to wait for accurate news."
"What don't you plan to do, young master?" Xiao Si asked in surprise.
"No need for now, just wait for news." Li Ziye replied.
While the two were talking, outside Li Garden, a servant dressed as a servant walked quickly, and soon, led by the guards of the mansion, he came to the inner courtyard.
"Professor Li."
When the chamberlain arrived, he looked at the third son of the Li family in front of him, bowed respectfully, and said, "The Queen has asked this servant to give Li Jiaoxi a message. Your Majesty has made up his mind to marry me!"
"knew."
Li Ziye said calmly, "Please also tell the Queen that I will find a solution for this matter."
"If Professor Li tells you, my servant will bring him."
The waiter responded, bowed again, and left in a hurry.
In the courtyard, when Li Ziye saw the servant leaving, a smile appeared on his face and he said, "Xiao Si, you see, the emperor is so ruthless, as long as the benefits are sufficient, he is even willing to marry his daughter to a dying man. "
