Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Lizhi, I pay my respects to His Majesty!"

"Get up! Li Zhi, are you worried about something?"

Liu Xian quickly asked Li Lizhi, who was paying her respects, to stand up, but he couldn't help but frowning slightly. He thought that it seemed that this girl Lizhi was not satisfied with something, as she acted so distant that she didn't even call him father.

However, he did not care too much about it, and he knew his own selfish motives. Some of her thoughts were understandable. After all, they were not his own flesh and blood.

"Father, I..."

Li Lizhi was indeed feeling uncomfortable, not only because of her own marriage, the affairs of Madam Fanghua and the Crown Prince, but also the affairs of the He family. She felt really uncomfortable, and there was indeed a lot of estrangement between her and the father who had raised her for so many years.

I felt that I had lost my composure, but at the same time I felt that there was nothing to explain.

"Okay, Li Zhi, I understand your thoughts. I have been worried about you these days. I asked you to come here today because I want to have a good talk with you..."

"Father, please speak!"

When Li Lizhi returned to the palace, she knew that this time was different from the past, and she wanted to reach a conclusion as soon as possible, otherwise it would be very uncomfortable to be vague every day.

Liu Xian sighed, "I know you are arrogant and proud, and you don't look down on people who are not the best, but you are a girl after all. Although I want to give you a satisfactory home, you are not a girl from an ordinary family. Even I have no control over many things. I hope you can understand your father's feelings!"

"Father, I understand and know your painstaking efforts. No matter what, I am also a subject. No matter what decision you make, I will obey your orders."

Li Lizhi had figured this out a long time ago. Since she didn't have anyone in her heart, she might as well follow the arrangements. If she continued to be willful, it might harm more than just her own happiness, and it might even bring about a great disaster.

"Lizhi, I'm glad you think this way. Over the years, I sometimes indulged your willfulness, and it was for your own good. But now the situation is different. I'm no longer young, and my health is getting worse day by day. You can see this, so I must arrange everything as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest in peace when I close my eyes."

"Father, Li Zhi understands. I understand everything. Just tell me what you want to say!"

Li Lizhi looked at Liu Xian, whose eyes were slightly red, and felt very uncomfortable. No one is so heartless...

"Okay, Lizhi, listen carefully. I have decided to marry you to the prince!"

Hearing this, Li Lizhi was horrified. She had thought of so many people, even the Sixth Prince, but she had never thought of...

"Father, Hui'er, oh, no, the prince is only eight years old this year."

"Li Zhi, I know the relationship between you and the prince, and I have always treated him as my own brother. However, I will only feel at ease if I hand the prince over to you. Do you understand?"

"But…"

Li Lizhi frowned slightly. She could understand what her father meant, but it just felt too awkward.

"I originally had this idea in mind, but I still wanted to wait and think it over carefully. But I tell you the truth, the Queen gave me advice today and asked me to marry you to Jing'er, so I am so anxious to decide this matter. Only in this way will the Queen have nothing to say."

"Father, Li Zhi will follow your arrangements..."

Li Lizhi pondered for a moment. Things had come to this point and she was well aware of the interests involved. There was nothing to hesitate about. Besides, she didn't think highly of Liu Jing at all.

Well, I'll just obey the emperor's order. I originally wanted to protect the prince, and this may be my destiny.

"Okay, very good. Tomorrow morning, I will announce this matter in public. Let the Ministry of Rites prepare for this matter as soon as possible, and then announce it to the world."

Liu Xian felt relieved and believed that no one in the court could express any objection.

"But, Father, isn't this a bit unfair to the Crown Prince? After all, he is only eight years old this year. Some things..."

Li Lizhi would naturally not go back on her decision, and the obedient and sensible prince would certainly agree to it, but she still felt a little uneasy in her heart, fearing that he would regret it in the future.

Liu Xian smiled slightly, "Lizhi, you don't have to worry at all. I believe that when Hui'er understands these things, she will definitely be grateful for my decision today.

Actually, although Hui'er is only eight years old this year, he is very intelligent and has his own ideas. How about I call him over now and ask for his opinion in person? "

"Don't, Father!"

Li Lizhi quickly waved her hands. How embarrassed she would be in front of such a little kid.

"In that case, then this matter is settled."

"Yes, Father, if there is nothing else, Li Zhi will take her leave."

Liu Xian waved his hand happily, and Li Lizhi left.

She was also relieved and didn't have to worry about these things anymore. Fortunately, now the most she could do was to grant him a marriage, and the real wedding would take at least five years later, which would be when the prince was thirteen years old.

Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

…

"Well, I suddenly feel a little tired, so I'm going back to my room first."

Bai Rushuang laughed and was about to turn around and leave.

Madam Fanghua rolled her eyes at Xing Bang and said, "You, really, how can this be possible!"

"Why? Can't I?"

Xing Bang deliberately pulled her in again.

"Well, we have to wait until night..."

Xing Bang looked at Bai Rushuang, who was walking slowly. "You're really leaving? Did you hear what your sister Fanghua said just now?"

Bai Rushuang turned around and chuckled: "You're just daydreaming!"

Xing Bang curled his lips and pinched Madam Fanghua's hips, "Okay, everyone go back to their own homes and find their own mothers!"

"Damn it! It's broad daylight, go back now!"

Madam Fanghua hissed subconsciously, then glared at Xing Bang...

"Sister, I'll go back first. When that day comes, we'll have a good chat all night long!"

No matter what she said or how much she quarreled, Bai Rushuang was not a person who did not know her limits, and she still had to be cautious where she should be.

She also understood Madam Fanghua's situation, but unfortunately she would not leave this place even without any persuasion.

I can only pray silently for peace in my heart...

Xing Bang kissed Madam Fanghua on the face, sent Bai Rushuang back to her room, and then returned to the Baoshi Office.

Bai Rushuang will be sent out of the palace soon, so we should be more careful at this time.

"Brother Bang, you're back. Sisters Fengyi and Fengjiao and I have figured out the mahjong game. Can you play with us for a while?"

"Okay, let me see how good you three are after practicing for half a day?"

Xing Bang sat down without any hesitation. He had originally come up with the idea of ​​making mahjong just to kill time, so naturally he had to teach them as soon as possible.
