After Feiyun finished speaking, Zhang Jianzhi continued: "Fengtang has done many evil things and deserves to be punished. I heard that it was you who proposed and led this deal with Fengtang." Feiyun said: "The common people also bumped into Fengtang accidentally. He committed evil, so he stopped him and created a conflict with Fengtang. As for the person who took the lead in this matter, it was the elder of the Beggar Clan, and ordinary people dare not take credit."
Zhang Jianzhi nodded approvingly and said: "Young hero is so young, but he can be indifferent to fame and fortune. It is really rare. I know that young hero has a lot of things to do, so I took the time to come here today. I guess there must be other things?"
Feiyun thought to himself, it seemed that he had guessed his purpose. After all, this was Feiyun's first visit, so it was naturally difficult for him to reveal his true intentions.
Liangchen knew that it was difficult for Feiyun to answer. If he denied that there was anything else, it would be inconvenient for him to speak again in the future. Liangchen immediately said: "Master Zhang, we are here because my eldest brother has long wanted to meet you in person to show his respect. I came here today just to realize my long-cherished wish."
Zhang Jianzhi smiled slightly and said, "Miss Liangchen, I know you are a smart girl. If you have anything to say, please speak up." Liangchen said humbly: "I don't dare to take the praise of an adult."
Master Zhang nodded slightly and said, "The little girl is very talkative and very humble. It seems that Lin Shaoxia has trained her well."
Liangchen thought for a while and said: "Of course my eldest brother has been teaching me and Meimei. Knowing Queen Luling, he also taught us sisters for the sake of my eldest brother." Zhang Jianzhi immediately said: "It seems that Your Highness and Shaoxia Lin have an unusual relationship?"
Liangchen immediately replied: "The prince and the eldest brother do have a very close relationship." Feiyun then explained: "Strictly speaking, your highness is the elder of the grassroots, and he treats these two girls like me differently." Zhang Jianzhi nodded. He nodded and said: "I see, I thought that the young knight was just a friend of the prince. I didn't expect that there was such a connection. No wonder His Highness has such high regard and trust in the young knight."
Liangchen said: "However, the maid thinks that the prince trusts and respects Master Zhan more. When the eldest brother and the prince mentioned dealing with Bai Fengtang, the prince first thought of Mr. Zhang. After the prince's explanation, we knew that Mr. Zhang was indeed a man of unparalleled loyalty and righteousness. ,impressive!"
Liangchen deliberately revealed the prince's trust and respect for Zhang Jianzhi in order to observe the other party's reaction. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jianzhi said calmly: "Your Highness's order is equivalent to the order of the imperial court, and the Yang family must obey it."
Liangchen was a little disappointed and looked at Feiyun. Feiyun saw that Zhang Jianzhi seemed unwilling to express his attitude and could not continue talking, so he excused himself to have something to do and stood up to leave. Zhang Jianzhi naturally knew Feiyun's intention, so he did not try to persuade Feiyun to stay and sent Feiyun out of the mansion.
Feiyun and the others left the house, got on the carriage, and walked slowly. Feiyun couldn't help but feel a little frustrated when he thought about the attitudes of the two families. Liangchen quickly comforted him and said, "Brother, don't worry. We should be able to come up with a solution after we go back and brainstorm."
Feiyun said: "Without the full support of Wu Qiong and Zhang Jianzhi, Li Xian is indeed not sure of getting the crown prince position. I just don't know why they are like this?" Liangchen couldn't think of a clue and remained silent.
After the three of them returned to Luling Palace, they told Princess Wei one by one about their visit. Princess Wei didn't seem surprised. Seeing that Feiyun was in a low mood, she said, "Young Master Lin, you don't have to blame yourself. Although these two families are loyal ministers, this matter involves the royal family. Of course, they are not in a position to express their opinions publicly. This is understandable. . As for who succeeds, it is the same for them, so there will naturally be no preference." Feiyun asked worriedly: "Does the princess have any good ideas?"
Princess Wei pondered for a moment and said: "There is a way, but I don't know if you are willing to agree." Feiyun was overjoyed and said: "Princess, what are you talking about? For the sake of Your Highness, I will brave even the swords and mountains of fire. Is there anything I can’t do? But it doesn’t matter, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse!”
The princess looked at Liu Shui gratefully and said: "In that case, I will tell you the truth. The Wu family is originally a relative of the emperor, and there is no difference between the prince, the prince of Liang, and the prince, so they will naturally remain neutral. If Wu Qiong and The prince has become an in-law, do you think they will strongly support the prince?" Feiyun blurted out: "It is shared by three relatives, there should be no doubt about this. But how can we get the prince to marry the Wu Qiong family?"
Princess Wei smiled slightly and said: "This matter cannot directly involve the prince, so as not to fall into the facts. I know that you have a brother named Liu Shui, who was close to Princess Yanmei when he was in Tanzhou. But if Liu Shui can become Wu Qiong The family's quick son-in-law, doesn't that mean that the prince and Wu Qiong are married?"
Feiyun was stunned, thought for a moment, and then said: "I have to go back and discuss this matter with Brother Liu Shui before I can decide!"
Just at this time, Liu Shuigang came back with Qingxiang as an undercover agent, and came to the Luling Palace with Feiyun. Feiyun immediately asked Liangchen to find Liu Shui, and Liu Shui hurried to the hall.
After hearing Feiyun's words, Liu Shui's face turned red and he quickly said: "Princess, you are kidding me. I am just a fool, how can I stand up to the beautiful princess."
Princess Wei said with a serious face: "Liu Shaoxia, I am not joking, I am serious." After hearing this, Liu Shui said doubtfully: "Even if I agree, Princess Yanmei will not agree. I think it is better to be with Wu Ji. Can't he think of a way to find a suitable girl to marry him?"
Princess Wei shook her head and said: "I have thought about this too, but there is no one suitable for him. I know that you and Princess Yanmei have known each other for a long time, and I heard that she seems to be interested in you. If you can get married, Wu Even if the Qiong family doesn't take a stand, they will still stand by King Luling. Liangchen, do you think I am right?"
Liangchen immediately responded: "Madam, what you said is true. I had this idea when I was at Wu Qiong's house. Just because I didn't get the consent of my eldest brother and Liu Shaoxia, I didn't dare to propose it in person." Feiyun then understood why Liangchen would Wu Qiong's family promised to find a young hero for Princess Yanmei. Liu Shui saw that the princess and Liangchen were singing together, and it was obvious that they had already discussed it. Liu Shui couldn't blame the princess, so he could only glare at Liangchen and said, "Did you give the princess this bad idea?"
Liangchen smiled and said: "Liu Shaoxia, this is not a bad idea. This idea can bring you great happiness, what's wrong with it? When King Luling becomes emperor in the future, you will be the emperor's relative. Liu's family is small, so when the time comes If you have more wives and concubines, won't you have more children?" Liu Shui's face turned red and he said angrily: "Who do you think I am? A womanizer?"
Seeing Liu Shui angrily reprimanding Liangchen, Princess Wei hurriedly said: "Liu Shaoxia, this is none of her business. After I heard about what happened to you in Tanzhou, I thought of the prince's unfavorable situation, and I came up with this idea out of desperation. If you really care about the princess, If you don’t have any good feelings at all, I can’t force you to force me to force you. I can’t ignore your feelings for my own selfish interests. Big”
After Princess Wei finished speaking, she sighed with a sad expression. Feiyun couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this. He quickly persuaded Liu Shui and asked him to agree to the matter. Liangchen also said that the other party might refuse directly and just show his goodwill to Wu Qiong.
Liu Shui couldn't bear to disappoint the princess, so he said: "Princess, don't worry. I didn't say anything bad about Princess Yanmei. She is not only beautiful, but also has strong martial arts skills. Although she is a little cold on the outside, she is still very warm and kind in her heart. But she You are a high-ranking princess, how could you take a fancy to a reckless person like me who wanders around the world? Although your and Liangchen's idea is good, it is simply impossible." Liangchen opened his mouth, but stopped talking. After all, she was still afraid of offending Feiyun, so she didn't say anything in the end.
Princess Wei frowned slightly, stared at Liu Shui, and asked seriously: "Young hero, what you mean is that if the princess agrees, you will agree to this marriage?" Liu Shui thought for a while and said, "If the princess refuses, ,I have no way."
When Princess Wei heard that Liu Shui agreed, she was naturally very happy and hurriedly thanked Liu Shui. The princess said to Liangchen: "Liangchen, now that Liu Shaoxia has agreed, can you go to the Gao family to propose marriage tomorrow?" Liangchen shook his head and said, "Princess, it is too early to propose marriage now."
Princess Wei asked puzzledly: "Why is this?" Liangchen said: "I think we should invite Princess Yanmei alone first, and the princess proposes to her on behalf of Liu Shaoxia to see if she agrees. If she has no objection, I can Go to Wu Qiong's house to propose marriage." Princess Wei is so smart, she can tell the truth naturally. She understands that the key to this matter lies in Yanmei's attitude. If she doesn't agree, nothing will happen. Princess Wei immediately asked Princess Yanmei to meet her at the palace early the next morning.
Early the next morning, Princess Yanmei was invited to the Luling Palace at a good time. Liangchen invited Yanmei into the hall to meet Princess Wei. Princess Wei had never seen Yanmei before, so she naturally looked at her carefully at this moment. But I saw that her goose-shaped face was rosy, her eyebrows were curved like willows, her eyes were shining like autumn water, she was graceful and graceful, and her appearance was as beautiful as heaven. Princess Wei was so happy that she said, "I have heard of the princess for a long time, and it is such a blessing to meet you today. Please sit down quickly!"
Yanmei heard Liangchen say that Princess Wei was Li Xian's princess, so naturally she was very respectful and said a few words of humility before sitting down. Liu E immediately said: "Shaoxia Liu is now our distinguished guest, and we often hear him mention the princess. The princess has worked tirelessly to help Shaoxia Lin a few days ago, and we are very grateful. We should have invited the princess to come as a guest as soon as possible, but There have been a lot of chores recently, and they have been delayed so far. Please forgive me, Princess."
Yanmei replied: "Brother Liu, Brother Lin, Liangchen, and Meimei have all helped my father and me. This time the Wu family took action, firstly, they were following the orders of the prince, and secondly, they wanted to repay Brother Liu's favor. Thirdly, the Wu family took action. This Fengtang massacred innocent people in the capital and should indeed be punished."
Princess Wei nodded and said, "Your Majesty has always said that the Wu family is the backbone of the country, and today it is well-deserved." The Wu family is a relative of the emperor, so naturally they are very aware of Li Xian's affairs.
Yanmei then said: "Princess, I summoned Yanmei to come over today, what are your instructions? As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
