At dawn, when Tang Xin woke up, the quilt spread on the ground had been put away by Li Yi.
"It doesn't seem as hot as yesterday."
Li Yi took back his hand and asked, "What kind of porridge do you want to drink today?"
"Just the same as last night."
"The requirements are really low, and it's easy to support." Li Yi helped Tang Xin sit up and placed a soft pillow behind her.
"Last night, I sent someone to Daqian to report that your brother is safe. However, we won't be able to leave for a while."
"I brought you back forcefully yesterday, and everyone's attention was drawn to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion."
"I have to make arrangements before I dare to send you back."
"Worrying you."
"It's not pleasant to be so polite so early in the morning." Li Yi leaned next to Tang Xin, "I hope you owe me as much as possible. If you can't pay me back, all I can do is pledge myself to you."
Li Yi made no secret of his intentions towards Tang Xin.
Tang Xin could not remain calm under Li Yi's gaze, and his ears were already red.
Li Yi's throat moved slightly. Wouldn't it be so tempting?
Resisting the urge to commit a crime, Li Yi coughed, "The Ling family has been hiding you secretly. They will not admit that the guards at Wan'an Temple are members of the Ling family."
"And I didn't know that you were the eldest lady of the Tang family, but you were fascinated by the piano and snatched it back without stopping."
"Later, I will enter the palace and ask the emperor to grant us a marriage."
Tang Xin raised his eyes, "Marriage?"
"That's right, I'm not afraid of you running away once the title is decided." Li Yi smiled broadly.
"..."
"Li Yi..."
"The orders of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the Tang family nodded." Li Yi looked at Tang Xin with wet eyes and spoke harmlessly.
Tang Xin rolled her eyes at him, "Don't make trouble, what's your idea?"
"Well..." Li Yi rested his head on Tang Xin's shoulder, "This will make Ling Yi mad."
"Secondly, the more I put things out in the open, the less the Ling family will dare to do anything behind the scenes."
"Marquis Jing'an's wife, it's reasonable for me to be angry if any of them talks nonsense."
Li Yi held Tang Xin's hand, with a deep chill in his eyes. Even if Tang Xin's identity was not exposed now, he would definitely not be able to hide it later.
She was imprisoned for several months, and she would say all kinds of unpleasant things.
Relying on Li Yi, Tang Xin let go of her worries. He was here, and she only needed to take good care of her health.
After giving Tang Xin the medicine and rinsing her mouth, Li Yi left the room when he saw that she was asleep.
After being informed, Li Yi waited outside the palace.
Not long after, a eunuch came out and led Li Yi to the imperial study.
"See the Emperor."
"Excuse me, why are you free to come here today, but are you in trouble?"
The emperor closed the memorial. He already knew what happened at Wan'an Temple yesterday.
"Yes, I want to ask the emperor to grant me a marriage. I am not young anymore. The Marquis's mansion is deserted. It is time to add more people to make it lively and lively."
"Which girl did you fall in love with?" The emperor was very interested and had an easy-going attitude.
"This is the woman I brought back from Wan'an Temple yesterday."
"You're talking nonsense!"
The emperor's voice was filled with dignity.
"You are a marquis and a close minister of the emperor. The one you are marrying should be a noble girl from a famous family."
"Your Majesty, I am out here, terrified every day, and rarely able to sleep peacefully, but the sound of her piano makes me feel at peace."
"Originally I just wanted to take her as my concubine, but her appearance and demeanor are really not like a daughter raised by an ordinary family."
"What worries me the most is the people guarding her. I was just looking for the sound of the piano, but when they saw me, they rushed up with swords without saying a word."
"The moves are ruthless, and it's clear that I want to silence you."
"This woman's identity is by no means simple."
"If I just take her as a concubine, I am worried that I will get into trouble, and I am also afraid that the person who imprisoned her will operate secretly."
"I rarely get tempted, this time..."
When Li Yi said this, he lowered his head, showing a bit of boyish coquettishness.
The emperor raised his lips. Jiang Jin's previous words were just a reasonable reason. The real reason was that he fell in love with this girl and did not want her to be his concubine.
He even asked him to marry her just to save her face.
After experiencing the tragedy of annihilating the family, people have changed a lot, but when it comes to matters between men and women, they are still so innocent.
The characteristics of the Jiang family.
"You must think clearly. I originally planned to marry General Lin's daughter to you. If you insist on marrying that girl, the marriage will not be completed."
"I beg the emperor to grant you permission. I like the piano she plays. I want to listen to it every day and have a peaceful sleep every night." Li Yi's voice was slightly low.
"That's fine."
The emperor gave Li Yi a hand in marriage with a wave of his hand.
When Li Yi left the palace, the news spread.
"Jing'an Hou, is he crazy?"
"Not to mention marrying a noble girl, he must have a clean family background. You can tell right away at this glance? He is of unknown origin."
Everyone shook their heads at Li Yi's actions. They acted according to their own preferences, which showed that they had previously thought highly of him.
"Mr. Gongzi."
In Ling Yi's study, the attendant spoke softly.
"Go down."
Ling Yi spoke slowly.
After everyone retreated, Ling Yi squeezed the corner of the table. How dare he! How dare he ask for an imperial edict! ! !
Ling Yi's eyes turned red, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Li Yi's move completely exceeded his expectations.
Looking at the paintings hanging on the wall, Ling Yi's eyes darkened.
"What on earth are you thinking!"
Lin Jin rushed into the Jing'an Marquis Mansion and looked at Li Yi with hatred.
"You actually want to marry a woman of unknown origin as your official wife!"
"This is how you've grown over the years you've been out there!"
Li Yi didn't answer, just shot out the arrow in his hand.
Seeing that he had hit the bull's-eye, Li Yi turned around and said, "What else? Marrying a wife means marrying the one you want."
"I think she is very happy. As for the other things, is it important?"
“I don’t need icing on the cake without providing help in times of need.”
"you!"
Seeing Li Yi's stubbornness, Lin Jin angrily threw up his sleeves and left.
Li Yi then raised his bow and shot an arrow. He put down his hand and narrowed his eyes. The person who really controlled Duxuan City was not the Ling family, but the emperor.
Will he not be able to find out Tang Xin's identity?
He knew everything thoroughly before dawn.
He didn't go to Wan'an Temple himself, it was Mao Feng who forced him to go. He only nodded after being annoyed.
Others may be scheming, but Mao Feng is recognized as a fool.
So this was not a deliberate plan on his part, he was really attracted by the sound of the piano.
Everything that happened after that was also forced by the situation.
If he knew Tang Xin's identity, he wouldn't be able to ask for marriage. He was really right. The Jiang family was already full of infatuated people, so it wasn't surprising.
There have been even more outrageous things. Because the girl he fell in love with got engaged, he went to the temple to become a monk without eating or drinking for three days and three nights.
It is true that Li Yi asked for marriage because he wanted to make Ling Yi angry to death, but more importantly, it was to prevent people from guessing that if he entered Xuancheng, the capital, for Tang Xin, then how could he be Jiang Jin.
