"Old friend?"
The Emperor looked Li Yunhe up and down and asked, "What kind of old friend is worthy of your attention? Is it a relationship between a man and a woman?"
No, if it was a relationship between a man and a woman, then why did Luoer never mention it?
Li Yunhe smiled bitterly, "No, I owe her."
If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have been targeted by the Heavenly Dao.
Before he recovered all his memories, he felt that he was not worthy of looking up to her. Now that he has recovered them, he is even less qualified, not even worthy of calling her Master.
"That's right. I know you're not someone important to Luo'er. I've never heard Luo'er mention knowing you. If you were an important person, she wouldn't have mentioned it."
Li Yunhe did not refute. He was indeed not an important person to her.
"You know this has offended me and the Crown Prince. Luo'er is my daughter, so the Crown Prince and I will naturally protect her."
She actually questioned his love for Luo'er, which made him so angry.
"I acknowledge my guilt and believe that the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dote on the Princess, which is why I have the courage to submit this list."
The emperor's gloomy face softened a little after hearing this.
"What makes you think Luo'er will need these people?"
"I dare to assume that if something unexpected happens to Tianqi in the future, the princess will naturally need these people."
He recruited these people, and on the surface others would think they were his people, but in fact they should be grateful to the princess.
The emperor snorted coldly, "As long as I am here, Tianqi will not be in chaos. Even if I am gone, there is still the crown prince."
The prince is as capable as him, and the restless ministers in the court have already been dealt with, so how could there be any unexpected changes?
"Your Majesty, after reading the princess's thoughts, does he really believe that things will be stable in the future? The Third Prince's case is an example."
If the Heavenly Dao exploits a loophole that he doesn't know about and attacks him or the princess's relatives, the people he has trained will support the princess to the end.
It's not that he was worrying too much. They couldn't predict what would happen next.
The emperor looked at Li Yunhe for a long time and said, "You have indeed thought it through. Perhaps if we really leave one day, Luo'er will have no one to rely on."
Li Yunhe was surprised at the emperor's ability to accept.
He now dared to directly affirm that the emperor's favor for the princess was not mixed with calculation, but was true love.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, these people are absolutely reliable."
Retracting his thoughts, Li Yunhe said in a gentle voice.
These poor scholars with clean family backgrounds and great talent were specially selected to join the princess's academy so that they would remember the princess's kindness.
In the future, when they enter the court, if the princess really encounters political troubles, these people can be used by the princess.
He knew these people's character, they valued friendship and loyalty, dared to speak and act, and they would definitely become talents that Tianqi could use in the future.
If these people dare to have any dissenting opinions against Tianqi in the future, he will deal with them.
Not only these people, but others as well.
While he can still help her, he will try his best to clear the obstacles for her.
"Okay," the emperor said with a hearty smile, "but since you are training civil officials, are you also preparing military commanders?"
"Your Majesty," Li Yunhe said frankly, "I believe I have some connections in the martial arts world. These people will not enter the court, but they can still help me when I need them."
The emperor snorted and laughed, "You are quite honest. Since you are so strategic, why don't you take this position yourself, or support Luo'er to become the queen."
Li Yunhe said sincerely, "A minister is always a minister. What I learned is how to assist the emperor, not how to rebel. Besides, Your Majesty is a good ruler. My strategy is just a show of my skills in front of you."
"As for your question about why I don't support the princess as empress, Your Majesty, based on my understanding of her, she doesn't like being constrained and wouldn't want to sit in this position."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and tapped lightly with his hand casually placed on the long table.
"No wonder Luo'er thinks you can inherit your father's position. You are very clear-headed and know where you should stand. Your master taught you well."
"You know Luo'er well enough. Luo'er really doesn't want to sit in this seat. Otherwise, why not let her sit here?"
This position is very popular among other countries, but they are all unwilling to sit here, making it like a hot potato.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "You can leave now. Don't think that you can kidnap my Luo'er by doing these things for her. I have clearly said that you are not of the right age."
Even if an old cow wants to eat young grass, you have to ask him if he agrees.
"I dare not. I will take my leave."
Li Yunhe bowed and left the imperial study. As he walked out, he saw Lin Qi standing at the bottom of the stairs.
He sighed inwardly.
As expected, the prince came to him to ask about matters related to the princess.
"Let's go."
Li Yunhe walked to Lin Qi and said directly.
"Master Li knows that I'm waiting for you?"
Lin Qi followed Li Yunhe.
Li Yunhe raised his eyebrows, "Is there anyone else here?"
…
The two entered the East Palace, and Lin Qi took Li Yunhe directly to the study.
Stopping at the door of the study, Lin Qi pushed it open and said, "Master Li, please come in."
Li Yunhe nodded and walked in.
The prince was wearing a moon-white gold brocade robe and sitting in front of a long desk, looking at Li Yunhe who came in with a smile on his face.
"Come on, sit down."
"I greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Brother Yunhe, there's no need to be so polite. Please sit down."
Li Yunhe stood up and walked to a chair nearby and sat down. "The Crown Prince summoned me here to ask about the princess? Or about the Third Prince?"
The prince poured a cup of tea and handed it to Li Yunhe.
"I want to ask you something. You know Luo'er from before, right?"
Li Yunhe thanked him and took the tea without any surprise on his face.
"Indeed, she is familiar with you. Her Royal Highness the Princess was the Goddess of Resurrection in her previous life."
The prince paused while holding the teacup, his heart filled with surprise, but he didn't show it on his face. "No matter what Luo'er was in her past life, now she is just my sister, the Princess of Tianqi."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is absolutely right."
"Since you and I both know the truth, I won't beat around the bush. Luo'er wants to help my third brother now. Do you know how I can help Luo'er?"
"I have no other options," Li Yunhe lowered his eyes, "The Third Prince's affairs can only be handled by the princess herself."
If there was a way, he would like to help her.
"You have no other options," the prince said with a disappointed look on his face. "Luo'er said that as long as we can find a way to get back Third Brother's luck, she can save him."
"That's true. Because the Third Prince doesn't have the male protagonist's luck now, the princess would be blocked by the Heavenly Dao if she wanted to inject divine power into him to repair his body. But as long as she can take back the luck that belongs to the Third Prince, the Heavenly Dao will not be able to stop the princess anymore."
Not to mention that he is just an ordinary person now, even if he really has magic power, he cannot use it.
The princess is not bound by any constraints only because the world we have today is the result of her sacrifice. If the Heavenly Dao were to kill the princess because she used her divine power, the world would completely collapse.
