Li Yu was immediately surprised and said: "I knew that you would have a way, sir, please tell me!"
Zhao Hao said, "It's very simple. You, the Shu Kingdom, can just send another princess of marriageable age to form an alliance. Isn't that enough?"
When Li Yu heard that Zhao Hao was talking about this method, she immediately became like a deflated ball and said dejectedly, "No way!"
"Then Sun Tuo, the third prince of Wu, specifically asked for Ge'er. If it were anyone else, he wouldn't agree!"
Zhao Hao smiled slightly, snapped his fingers lightly, and said: "You are right, Sun Tuo will not agree."
Li Yu was puzzled and asked, "Since you know it, why did you still say it..."
Zhao Hao shook his head slightly and said, "If Sun Tuo doesn't want to, does that mean it won't work?"
"You take the Third Prince too seriously."
"Let me ask you, Wu, why did you want to enter into this marriage with your Shu?"
Li Yu said quickly: "That's to win over our Shu Kingdom... Yes, to deal with you..."
When she spoke the second half of the sentence, Li Yu's voice became softer.
Zhao Hao didn't care, he smiled softly and nodded, "You are right."
"This marriage is mainly to bind your Shu Kingdom."
"With today's situation like this, what does it matter who goes to the marriage?"
"You have changed the princess for marriage, and the third prince himself might not be happy about it."
"But, for Shu, it doesn't matter who it is."
"Put it this way."
"Even if you don't want to marry the princess, you can just find a palace maid and send her over. Wu will definitely agree."
Li Yu was not stupid either. When she heard what Zhao Hao said, her eyes lit up and she completely reacted.
"My Lord, what you mean is that the Wu court cares about whether we, Shu, can stand on their side."
"In this matter, only the Third Prince cares whether the marriage is with Ge'er or not."
"And the will of the Third Prince is insignificant compared to the Wu court."
"As long as our Shu Kingdom is a little tougher and asks for a different marriage partner, they will definitely agree!"
Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, saying, "That's what I mean."
After a pause, he continued, "In fact, the main obstacle to this matter does not come from the Wu Kingdom, but from your own court in the Shu Kingdom."
"Do you really think that if I can see these, those people in the court of your Shu Kingdom can't see them?"
Li Yu was shocked when she heard this: "Master, do you mean that someone wants to marry Ge'er?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "Of course it is like that, and this power is difficult for your Queen to stop."
"Think about it, who would want Princess Li Ge to marry into the Kingdom of Wu?"
Li Yu took a deep breath and said quickly: "That must be the eldest princess!"
"Although the princess failed in her fight for the imperial treasury, she still has great influence among the royal family."
"It must be her!"
As she spoke, a hint of anger appeared in Li Yu's beautiful eyes.
The ministers in the court would not care which princess would go for marriage.
If they cared, they would definitely do the same as the Wu court.
What matters is the marriage itself.
Even if two dogs were to marry, it would not matter to them.
So, she immediately thought that it must be the eldest princess who was interfering.
He used his influence among the royal family to push this matter forward.
Zhao Hao said at the side: "Now that we have found the crux of the problem, we can just prescribe the right medicine."
"For example, the eldest princess is concerned about the treasury, so Li Ge can hand it over to her first."
"This should solve the problem."
Li Yu heard this and said uncertainly: "I'm afraid it won't work. Sending Ge'er to Wu State would be a better choice for the princess, wouldn't it?"
"Anyway, when Ge'er is gone, the treasury will most likely end up in her hands."
Zhao Hao nodded slightly and said, "What you said makes sense. Then this deal is invalid."
"Since we can't trade, we can only change our strategy and force her to submit."
Li Yu asked quickly: "How can we force her to submit?"
Zhao Hao smiled softly, pulled her into his arms, and said, "Don't worry, let me think about it slowly, there will always be a way!"
Li Yu said, "Master, you must think quickly. You must not let Ge'er jump into that fire pit!"
"And, from the bottom of my heart, I think Ge'er is the same as me."
"I don't really want our Shu Kingdom to side with the Wu Kingdom."
"My lord, there are many things I can't help you with during your visit to Shu Kingdom, but Ge'er can help you."
Zhao Hao hugged Li Yu and said, "I know you are worried, but don't worry, there is still time."
"The eldest princess wants to solve the problem of Li Ge once and for all and gain control of the treasury."
"Isn't she afraid that if Li Ge marries him, what will happen if the Third Prince Sun Tuo takes the throne of the Crown Prince..."
"In the future, will Li Ge turn around and use the power of Wu to cause trouble for her?"
"I think you should first have people spread some messages in the imperial capital, saying that Wu's female prime minister Xie Daoxun intends to support the third prince Sun Tuo to inherit the throne of the Crown Prince."
"As soon as the news spreads, you will find someone who is close to the princess and whom she trusts, and go to her to explain the interests involved."
"In this way, as long as she is scared, she won't bite Li Ge anymore!"
When Li Yu heard what Zhao Hao said, her eyes suddenly brightened up.
"As expected of you, young master, this is indeed a good idea!"
"Then I'll do it now!"
Having said that, Li Yu quickly stood up from Zhao Hao's arms, straightened her clothes a little, and was about to leave.
Zhao Hao was speechless and said, "Didn't I say that there is still a lot of time and there is no need to rush?"
Seeing Zhao Hao's expression, Li Yu quickly leaned down again and kissed him on the mouth.
"Master, I will go and tell Ge'er about this first, and then I will come back to accompany you in the evening!"
"Sir, please let me go!"
Seeing her acting like a spoiled brat, Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile: "Then how are you going to compensate me tonight?"
Li Yu felt warm, and her pretty face immediately blushed, and she said, "Whatever the young master says, that's what it is..."
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "You said it, so you can't go back on your word."
Li Yu hummed softly, and Zhao Hao said, "Okay, then you go first."
After getting Zhao Hao's permission, Li Yu got up and left.
Looking at her leaving figure, Zhao Hao suppressed his smile and shook his head slightly.
After coming out of the villa, Li Yu got on the carriage and went straight to Li Ge's mansion.
When she entered the room, she asked a few questions. Li Ge had just returned, so Li Yu immediately walked in.
When she came into the house, she saw Li Yu drinking alone.
Her pretty face turned red from drinking.
