Su Rou thought about all the possibilities, but the only thing she didn't expect was that the man in front of her would actually say such things to her.
When Su Rou thought about this man thinking so much about herself, Su Rou felt very guilty when she thought about the things she had lied to him about before.
"Your Majesty, what I did was wrong before. I should not have doubted you. Moreover, after I knew your true identity, I should have told you my true identity as soon as possible. Not only did I not tell you, but I I deceived you, this matter..."
Before Su Rou could finish what she said next, Li Ke directly covered Su Rou's mouth and began to speak slowly.
"Okay, you don't have to feel guilty about such a small thing anymore. I know you, and I was very clear about your concerns at that time, so I don't plan to argue with you anymore about this matter. You can just put this matter aside." Let the matter be over, the two of us can be honest with each other from now on."
After Su Rou heard Li Ke and herself say this, she knew that Li Ke would no longer care about this matter. If she continued to say it, Li Ke might even be angry.
"Your Majesty, I don't want to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan. Although this is an excellent opportunity, I don't want to have anything to do with the people of the Su family. They have never cared about me since I was a child. If I go back, they will I might even take the opportunity to threaten you, but I don’t want that to happen.”
"We have known each other for such a long time, and there are some things that I don't need to explain so clearly. You should be able to understand, right?"
After hearing Su Rou say this, Li Ke knew about it and let it go.
Since this girl doesn't want to recognize her ancestor and return to the clan, can't she just fabricate an identity for him when the time comes?
This is just a piece of cake for me.
Moreover, even if Su Rou takes the back seat in the future, the two of them will not have many opportunities to meet Master Su on weekdays, and he will definitely not recognize her.
After considering all these things carefully, Li Ke felt that he should discuss this matter with Li Shimin.
After all, Li Shimin was his father in name anyway. If he didn't talk to him, those people might find other excuses to silence him.
inside the palace
Li Shimin looked at his son who had not come to see him for several days, smiled softly, and then slowly took a sip of tea. He did not look like he was seriously ill at all.
"Ke'er, why did you come to see me today? If there is anything, just tell me first. Maybe I can help you."
Then he had to give Su Rou a serious identity, so Li Ke suppressed his inner unhappiness and spoke.
"Father, I have fallen in love with a person without any prominent status. I want to make him my queen, but I know that the great gods in Chaozhou will definitely oppose me. I am coming to you now to find a solution."
Li Shimin was a little shocked after hearing what Li Ke said.
This son of mine will do whatever it takes to gain power, and he is relatively clear about this.
Now he is actually willing to marry a woman who has no aspirations or identity?
Why do I feel that something is wrong the more I hear this?
"Are you sure? Have you thought about this matter? If you think about it well, I can indeed help you accomplish this matter."
"When the time comes, I will ask Fang Xuanling to come to the palace and tell him that he will regard the woman as his adopted daughter. Then you will take him into the palace from Fang Xuanling's house and make him your queen. This is just an extreme move. It’s a simple matter, but then there won’t be many people in the government who can help you.”
"Now that you have finally reached this position, is it worth it to give up everything you have now for a woman?"
Just after Li Shimin asked this question, Li Ke answered very decisively.
"I think this matter is very worthwhile. She is the only one in my heart. I have met many people over the years, but he is the only one who can make my heart beat. I feel that I will not marry him unless I marry him in this life. If those people If the courtiers object, I can give up my current position, but no one involved with Wu Meiniang can sit on that throne. This is my bottom line."
"You don't even know that when Xiaorou and I met for the first time, he looked at me with those wet eyes. I made up my mind at that time that I would only have Xiaorou in my life, no matter what else. There are thousands of good people, but they all mean nothing to me.”
"I have identified him, and I only want him."
After hearing what Li Ke said, Li Shimin sighed helplessly.
My son is good at everything, but he is really not very clear about things like feelings.
Emperors who have attached great importance to feelings since ancient times have never accomplished anything significant.
I used to think that this son was a man who strives for success, but now I think he is just a man who is willing to give up his country for a woman.
Such a person can actually take the position he has held for so many years.
After thinking of this, Li Shimin felt very uncomfortable now.
If I had destroyed Wu Meiniang earlier, maybe there wouldn't be so many things.
"Ke'er, if I hadn't delegated power to Wu Meiniang and let him manage these things, wouldn't you have chosen the path of seeking power and usurping the throne?"
"Father, what are you talking about? I sat in this position through the Imperial Edict Zhenerba Sutra. It has nothing to do with the term "seeking power and usurping the throne."
"However, my father was always willing to keep Wu Cai Ren in the palace. This was indeed not the right thing to do. After all, Wu Cai Ren had already controlled most of the forces in the palace at that time. If I hadn't stopped him at that time, Maybe now, Father, your position has been taken away."
After saying this, Li Ke felt that there was no point in staying in this palace, so he turned around and prepared to leave.
Just when he took two steps, Li Shimin, who seemed calm just now, couldn't help but speak.
"You remember to let Fang Xuanling enter the palace tomorrow, and I will explain this matter clearly to him. That person has always been stubborn. If you talk to him then, he probably won't listen."
