After all, as the king of a country, Xia Zhende became angry and powerful. A feeling of oppression that seemed to be real came to his face, making people couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
Even though Li Fu knew very well that Xia Zhende would not do anything to him, he still couldn't help but feel a sense of fear and timidity in his heart.
"Uncle, my nephew didn't choose first and last. In fact, the marriage that I had agreed with Princess Qingyun was not what my nephew wanted!" Li Fu looked at Xia Zhende "sincerely" and defended.
"How can you leave your parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, and your marriage to your own will?" Xia Zhende frowned and snorted coldly: "Your marriage to Qingyun was decided jointly by me and Uncle Wang. It should not be tolerated." Change!"
"Let's talk about the marriage after my grandfather comes back! Anyway, my nephew only has Princess Qingyu in his heart and will not marry Princess Qingyun!" Li Fu said stubbornly, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.
If someone else had been like this, Xia Zhende would have cut him into pieces and ransacked his family.
But as for Li Fu, Xia Zhende really had no good way to deal with him.
You can't kill him, you can't threaten him, you can't tie him up and force him to have sex, right? That is really the most ridiculous thing in the world!
If word spreads, the royal family will be disgraced!
Seeing that Li Fu had not been frightened, Xia Zhende slowed down his tone and advised earnestly: "Nephew, Yu'er is ten years older than you. You two are not suitable!"
"Why is it inappropriate? Age hurts people. To be honest with the emperor's uncle, the younger nephew likes the older ones when he beats the young and has no mother!" Li Fu nodded and said: "Besides, the queen is older than the emperor's uncle. A lot? Your relationship is something that people all over the world are trying to emulate, isn’t it quite appropriate!"
"You! This! How can the Queen and I be the same as you and Qing Yu? The Queen and I are childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship. And as far as I know, you and Qing Yu haven't even spoken a few words, right?" Xia Zhende asked road.
Li Fu smiled, took out what Xia Zhende said just now, and retorted: "Didn't the Emperor just say that you can wait until you get married before cultivating a relationship! If you wait and live together for a long time, you will naturally fall in love over time. Well!"
"..."
Silence fell in Yangyuan Hall, and after a long time, Xia Zhende said tiredly: "That's all, let's talk about your marriage later! Let's not mention it now!"
The reason why Li Fu used the eldest princess Xia Qingyu as a shield was because he knew that Xia Zhende would definitely not betroth Xia Qingyu to him.
Xia Qingyu was born to Xia Zhende and the queen. They only had one child. The remaining nine princes and two princesses were all born to other noble concubines.
As Li Fu said just now, Xia Zhende and the Queen have a very good relationship, and they are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. As the fruit of their love, Xia Qingyu was naturally somewhat different from other princes and daughters in Xia Zhende's heart.
Although Xia Zhende didn't show it and even treated Xia Qingyu more harshly than he treated other princes and princesses, Li Fu knew that among all the princes and princesses, Li Fu liked Xia Zhende the most due to his understanding of the palace's control. The one is the eldest princess Xia Qingyu.
Xia Qingyu himself is also a proud son of heaven. He is at the top level in every aspect of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, military strategy, and martial arts practice. If she hadn't been born as a girl, Xia Zhende would have made her the prince long ago!
How could Xia Zhende, such a royal noblewoman, be willing to marry Li Fu?
The dinner ended on bad terms.
Xia Zhende sat in his seat, looking deeply at Li Fu's back as he said goodbye. After a long silence, he turned to Yan Zong beside him and said: "Yan Daban, go to the Grand Master's house and ask Grand Master Ye to come into the palace to see me. !”
"yes."
Yan Zongzhi accepted the order without any surprise, and then hurriedly left Yangyuan Hall.
At this time, Xia Zhende's face had long since lost the rage and indignation, as well as the false gentleness and kindness, leaving only a cold and indifferent expression.
The eunuchs and maids around who were familiar with Xia Zhende's temperament had already quietly retreated without making a sound, for fear of disturbing Xia Zhende's thoughts.
In this way, Xia Zhende sat in the Yangyuan Hall where he was the only one left. He pondered for a long time before murmuring to himself: "Want to marry Xia Qingyu? Tsk, is he really interested in Xia Qingyu, or is he? An excuse for not wanting to marry Xia Qingyun? Or, did the patron palace find out something? He had just beaten Xia Qingyun, and suddenly became so resistant. Did he really realize that something was wrong? It shouldn't be! Tsk! The Li family... really looks like that It's like a hard-haired hedgehog that makes it hard for people to eat. In the beginning, it shouldn't have been..."
After leaving Yangyuan Hall, Li Fu took He Qingliu and Chen Han outside. As he walked, he thought wildly in his mind: Could Emperor Xia Zhende also be a destined protagonist?
If so, what type of protagonist would he be?
After thinking about Xia Zhende's life, Li Fu rejected his idea. He felt that although Xia Zhende was the king of a country and had great power, his life experience was a bit too plain and he did not look like a destined protagonist.
When Xia Zhende was born, Dayan had already established a country and the unrest on the mainland had subsided, so he had never led troops into battle to kill the enemy.
Two of Xia Zhengwu's sons died on the battlefield. One son was born stupid, and the other died young. Among the remaining three sons, although Xia Zhende was frail and sick since childhood, he was the strongest in all aspects of emotional intelligence, intelligence, and strategy. Therefore, Xia Zhengwu established him as the prince early on.
In this way, Xia Zhende grew up smoothly, was established as the prince, and ascended the throne smoothly. The journey was not bloody and gloomy, and he did not experience any ups and downs.
Could such an ordinary life be the protagonist of destiny?
On the contrary, Xia Zhengwu and Li Kai came from scratch, fought in all directions, and single-handedly laid down the huge foundation of the Great Yan Empire. There is a high probability that they are the two destiny protagonists.
It is a pity that Xia Zhengwu died many years ago due to the accumulation of hidden injuries on his body.
And Li Kai... No matter how beastly Li Fu is, he would not trade his grandfather for his destiny. That's no longer a villain, it's anti-humanity.
After walking all the way to Wu'anmen and sitting on the chariot of the patron saint waiting here, He Qingliu and Chen Han breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
It can be seen that accompanying Li Fu on this trip put a lot of pressure on both of them.
He poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. Chen Han wiped his mouth, then gave Li Fu a thumbs up and praised: "The courage of the young prince has grown! The emperor was angry just now, I am the old Chen. Even outside the door, I couldn't help but feel nervous. When the young prince faced him directly, he was able to deal with it calmly and in an orderly manner without panicking at all. It's amazing!"
"He doesn't dare to do anything to me, so there's nothing to panic about." Li Fu shook his head and said nonchalantly.
With the relationship between the patron palace and the royal family, anything that can be put on the surface is not worth mentioning.
What really worries Li Fu is why Xia Zhende is suddenly so eager to marry Xia Qingyun to him?
If something went wrong, there must be a monster, and Li Fu felt a little uneasy!
