After hearing what his daughter said, King Liang was even more excited than when he got married to the Song family just now.
If they can become in-laws with Dingbei Hou and they join forces in the future, then Pingnan King is nothing.
He laughed loudly and said to Li Baozhu: "Zhu'er, just now my father was thinking about what kind of girl can be worthy of my Rui'er. I didn't expect that you, this girl, had already found a second sister-in-law for yourself."
He smiled and asked Li Yunrui, "Rui'er, do you agree to this marriage? If you do, I will ask your mother and concubine to prepare two betrothal gifts."
Li Yunrui smiled and cupped his hands, "It all depends on my father."
Prince Liang stood up with a smile and said, "Well, I'll go and discuss with your mother and concubine to prepare generous betrothal gifts for both your brothers. We can't let the in-laws think that our family doesn't take it seriously."
Li Baozhu stopped him quickly and said, "Father, the betrothal gift is not urgent. We have to clear things up with Dingbei Marquis first."
The King of Liang smiled and said: "Yes, Zhu'er has thought carefully, so I will write a letter to Ding Beihou now and ask for his opinion.
But let your mother and concubine prepare the betrothal gift first. As long as Dingbei Hou agrees, I will immediately send someone to propose the marriage. "
"Yes, Father."
King Liang left happily. The brother and sister sent him out, and their expressions immediately darkened.
"Second brother, it seems that we have all been wrong before. The eldest brother is definitely not as clueless as he showed."
Li Yunrui snorted coldly, "Zhu'er, it's not that we made a mistake, it's that he hid it too deeply, and it's also because we were naive.
It seems that he is either uncomfortable here or not right there all year round. I thought he was really recuperating on Zhuangzi.
But unexpectedly, he is thinking about how to plot against us? We need to pay more attention to him in the future. We have been planning for so many years and we cannot let him take advantage of us. "
Li Baozhu said thoughtfully: "Yes, he is the eldest son of Prince Liang. With such a big temptation ahead of him, how could he have no ambition? We were deceived by his appearance."
What Li Yunrui is worried about now is whether Dingbei Hou will agree to marry his youngest daughter to him?
Ever since he and Baozhu came back from the Northland last year, his father had often written letters to the Marquis of Dingbei.
He would occasionally write to Song Erlang, but there were not many replies.
Sometimes one person writes three or four letters, and the other person only replies with one letter.
And there are still only a few sentences, all of them are greetings, and there is no useful sentence.
Thinking of this, he felt a little unsure.
He whispered to Li Baozhu: "Baozhu, let's go sit at mother's place and tell her what happened today."
Li Baozhu heard him call her mother and immediately looked around.
Seeing that the girl and the boy were standing outside the hall, they probably couldn't hear their conversation.
Then he said in a low voice: "Second brother, be careful in the future and don't call me mother outside, otherwise you will get into trouble."
After finishing speaking, both brothers and sisters fell silent.
In the past, when the princess and Li Yunhang were serving as hostages in the capital, their mother had the final say in the backyard of Prince Liang's mansion.
But since the princess and Li Yunhang came back, my mother rarely left the yard.
One is to avoid Princess Liang's sharp edge, but also to see how capable Princess Liang is.
She had been hiding for three years, and Princess Liang became more and more prestigious in the palace.
Thinking of this, Li Baozhu narrowed his eyes.
She and her second brother were often in the military camp. They probably lost their military morale and paid little attention to the affairs of Prince Liang's Mansion.
She couldn't remember when did the people in the palace start to obey the orders of the princess and the prince?
I need to make a good plan with my mother later. We can't go on like this anymore. My mother also wants to go out and walk around.
Princess Liang was looking at the inventory list in the backyard when she saw Prince Liang walking in with a smile.
I thought I was happy about my son's marriage.
Unexpectedly, he told her to prepare two betrothal gifts as soon as he opened his mouth.
Princess Liang knew that something was wrong with the brother and sister again.
She was very disdainful in her heart, but it didn't show on her face at all, and she pretended to be happy and said:
"This is a double blessing. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will make good preparations for the two children. After packing, I will show you the gift list."
Prince Liang smiled and waved his hand, "You don't have to let me see it, you just make the decision. How do I know this?"
Princess Liang curled her lips inwardly and forced out another smile.
"Since the prince trusts me so much, I will definitely do my best to prepare the betrothal gifts for my two children."
She poured a cup of tea for Prince Liang and asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder which girl Rui'er has chosen? Should I prepare a bigger betrothal gift?"
Prince Liang took a sip of tea and said, "Rui'er has fallen in love with the youngest daughter of the Hou family in Dingbei, but the matter has not been decided yet.
I want to send a letter to Marquis Bei to discuss it first. You should prepare the betrothal gift first. As for the thickness, just compare it with Hang'er's. "
Princess Liang was very surprised when she heard that she was the daughter of the Dingbei Hou family.
Dingbei Hou was upright and never interfered in the royal battle for the right to inherit the throne, let alone took sides.
How could such a person betroth his daughter to Li Yunrui?
Then she heard that Liang Wang said that the betrothal gift should be according to Hang'er's preparation, which made her even more angry.
But he still suppressed the anger forcefully.
She pretended to hesitate and said: "Your Majesty, is it inappropriate to prepare the same betrothal gift for two children?
The Song family is a scholar, and they pay the most attention to etiquette. Will they say that our Prince Liang's house does not differentiate between sons and daughters and has no rules at all?
Jingyan is getting married for the second time. If Mr. Song thinks that we despise his daughter, it will not be a marriage, but an enemy. "
Liang Wangguang was happy and didn't think much about it.
In his heart, both sons are his flesh and blood.
Rui'er was so capable. He never regarded the child as a bastard, but outsiders didn't think so.
Especially scholars like the Song family like to pay attention to these things.
Although he values Dingbeihou very much, the Song family is equally important to him.
He said gently to Princess Liang: "The princess is right. I got distracted. You can take care of the betrothal gift."
Princess Liang smiled and said: "My lord, please rest assured that the child's betrothal gift represents the face of our Prince Liang's family. I will definitely be cautious about it."
Prince Liang nodded with satisfaction. He was still assured of the princess' abilities.
In the past three years, the princess has managed all the affairs in the palace in an orderly manner without any mistakes, which relieved him a lot.
Li Yunhang came out of the bathroom and lay down on the couch. Two boys immediately took towels to help him wipe his hair.
The older boy whispered in his ear the news he had just received.
"The second young master and the third young lady went to Meiyuan. The prince asked the princess to help the second young master prepare the betrothal gift. She said that she wanted to marry the youngest daughter of the Beihou family to the second young master."
Li Yunhang almost laughed out loud and cursed the idiot in his heart.
I really don’t know what his father is thinking? I really don’t even have any self-awareness.
Then who is Dingbeihou? How could he be complicit with a rebellious prince?
If he was not mistaken, Dingbeihou should have surrendered to the prince long ago.
How could he betroth his daughter to Li Yunrui? What a wishful thinking.
