"Okay, I was wrong. Tell me what you found out."

Shen Xu turned around and told Song Lin the results of his investigation in Yunnuan Pavilion.

"This Li family is actually from the Li family, the most prestigious family in Dongyi City. The only young lady in the Li family with the character '草' in her name, besides Ning Wangfei Li Xuan, was the second young lady of the Li family, Li Fu.

The Li family's status in Dongyi City is almost comparable to that of the Xie family in Xiling and the Fu family in the southern border.

Let’s put it this way, the fields, mulberry and textile industries in Dongyi City are all the Li family’s industries.

The famous golden brocade and gorgeous satin embroidery are both from the Li family.

Compared with the Xie and Fu families, the Li family not only engaged in business, but also had many family members entering officialdom. There were people from the Li family in the salt administration, military affairs, and the Inspectorate.

Li Fu's elder sister, Li Xuan, married Prince Ning. Li Fu was originally intended to be married to Crown Prince Heng.

Song Lin was slightly stunned. He had always thought that the Li family became rich because Li became the city lord's wife, but he didn't know that the Li family was originally a famous and prestigious family.

"Who is Prince Heng? Isn't there only Prince Yan?"

"Prince Heng is the current emperor's great uncle, Murong Heng, Lord of Western Wasteland City. Because of the Yun Kingdom hostage incident, Prince Heng voluntarily gave up his position as crown prince, and his marriage to Li Fu was also called off.

The Li family later went to Yong'an City to cause trouble. At that time, Dongning Prefecture had won a great victory in the war. In order to express his apology, Emperor Hui allowed the unmarried noblemen in Yong'an City to choose from.

Although Li Fu's engagement was broken off by the Crown Prince, her reputation remained unaffected. Furthermore, due to her family connections and her beauty and talent, almost all the young men in Yong'an City wanted to marry her.

"She finally chose my uncle?"

Shen Xu nodded and said, “The Song family was originally just a military household. Because General Yuewei became famous, the talented woman Li Fu chose General Yuewei’s fourteen-year-old brother.

The Li family did not object to this, nor did they despise the Song family for being a poor match. Instead, they happily accepted the Song family's betrothal gift and settled the marriage.

Patriarch Song also made two pairs of bracelets early on, one for his married daughter and one for his unmarried daughter-in-law.

Song Lin frowned, puzzled, "If that's the case, since she chose my uncle, why did she end up with my father?"
