"No, no, no, I just want to watch Sizi and the others play."
When Li Lizhi, who had been staring at the inflatable castle, heard Zhou Yu's suggestion, her cheeks turned red all the way to her ears, like a kitten caught in the act.
Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun, who was standing nearby, took her hand lovingly and said, "If you want to play, go ahead. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Look at the age of that child up there. Isn't he older than you?"
"But...but my daughter is getting married next year. How can I disregard my image like Sizi and Chengyang?"
Hearing her mother's persuasion, Li Lizhi's face lit up with joy.
However, after seeing Li Er next to him, the joy on his face quickly faded.
How could Empress Changsun possibly hide her daughter's little thoughts from her eyes?
He glanced at Li Er, who was looking around, then rubbed Li Lizhi's head and said, "Zhou Yu said that girls can't get married until they are twenty. You are still seven or eight years away from that. Why are you so anxious?"
"But……"
"Don't worry, Aye will make the final decision on this matter. Just go and have fun."
Li Er naturally heard everything that happened between the mother and daughter.
Seeing his daughter's insincere expression, he immediately waved his hand casually.
Li Lizhi was stunned at first, but then she said excitedly, "Thank you, Father, and thank you, Mother."
She really wanted to play and have fun like Sizi.
But as the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she was old and bound by various rules.
Even in modern times, I still cannot get rid of the shackles in my heart.
Now that Li Er has spoken, all concerns are naturally eliminated.
After hurriedly saying thank you, he ran towards the entrance of the inflatable castle with a cheerful pace.
As the little girl ran, she didn't forget to greet the two little ones on the inflatable castle, "Sizi, Chengyang, sister is here."
The two little ones who heard her call also looked surprised.
Seeing that Li Lizhi had arrived at the entrance of the inflatable castle, the two little ones immediately came up to her with their little butts twisted.
"Sister, come up here quickly. It's so soft up there, it feels so good."
"Yeah, Sizi is right, sister, let's have a competition to see who can climb to the highest point first."
"Yeah, wait for me, I'll be there soon."
As she spoke, Li Lizhi had already taken off her sandals.
Without waiting for the boss's help, he climbed up directly.
Soon, the princesses' silver bell-like laughter could be heard from the inflatable castle.
"How come Li Zhi suddenly got it?"
Zhou Yu has been next to the inflatable castle, playing with the two little ones.
Seeing Li Lizhi's performance, he couldn't help but approach Li Er with a curious look on his face.
"It's all because of you, kid. You forced me to investigate matters related to blood relatives within three generations."
Li Er curled his lips, his tone full of complaints.
Zhou Yu was immediately displeased when he heard this. "If you're not worried about your daughter, you don't have to worry about this matter."
You old Deng.
Isn't this for your daughter's own good?
It would be fine if you didn't express your gratitude, but you actually want to put the blame on yourself.
It is true that my uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt cannot.
"Hey, you kid..."
Being defeated by Zhou Yu, Li Er also raised his head.
Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun, who was standing nearby, quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Xiao Yu, this is indeed a difficult matter for your elder brother."
"problem?"
Zhou Yu couldn't help but look confused when he heard this.
You may not believe what Li Er said, but what Empress Changsun said is still highly credible.
Since even Empress Changsun said so, this matter should not be as simple as I thought.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder, "The results of the investigation are all indisputable facts. Do you dare not give me this face?"
"If Erlang asked, I wouldn't dare refuse. But the key point is, Erlang can't ask for anything."
"Why is that?"
Hearing Empress Changsun say this, Zhou Yu became even more confused.
Li Er was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Even though Zhangsun Wuji is the emperor's uncle, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to be easily controlled, right?
Besides, there is Empress Changsun, so it shouldn’t be that troublesome.
Hearing Zhou Yu's question, Empress Changsun first glanced at Li Er, then said helplessly, "It was Erlang who originally arranged this marriage. If he breaks off the engagement now, how will others view him?"
"How do you see it? Use your eyes. Or your nose?"
"Respect is certainly important, but can it be more important than the health and happiness of that girl Li Zhi?"
"As a father, if you can't take good care of your daughter, you are not a qualified father."
…
Empress Changsun’s explanation immediately made Zhou Yu angry.
After glancing at Li Er who was stiffening his neck, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Li Er was so angry that his nose almost got crooked when he heard this.
He pointed at Zhou Yu for a long moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I'm more than just a father. I have a lot of things to worry about, and you can't possibly understand that."
"Ahem, Xiao Yu, don't bother with him."
Seeing the two of them arguing with each other, they were both angry.
Empress Changsun, who was standing next to her, quickly tried to smooth things over.
After comforting Zhou Yu, she quietly explained Li Er's difficulties.
After hearing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes again. "Such a simple question, is it really going to make you so worried?"
"Simple? Then tell me, how do we do it?"
Li Er was breathing heavily, obviously very angry about Zhou Yu's words.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu said casually, "Give the results of your investigation to the other party for verification. Also, tell them that in order to ensure the accuracy of the results, you must expand the scope of the investigation. Once the results are in, you don't have to worry about it. They will take the initiative to cancel the engagement."
"Hmph, that's easy for you to say. What if he plays dumb and refuses to break off the engagement? What will happen then?"
Li Er still spoke stubbornly, but he had already been tempted in his heart.
Since the solution was proposed by Zhou Yu, we must have already had answers to what might happen next.
really.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yu said confidently, "If they get married, the child will be the eldest grandson of the eldest son's family. If it were you, would you dare to take such a risk?"
"You are also aware of Li Zhi's identity. What if the other party insists on taking that chance?"
Li Lizhi was the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty today has not reached the point where a prince consort is not even worthy of being a dog.
If Changsun Wuji really wants to take a gamble, Li Er really can't think of any way to deal with it.
However, Zhou Yu, who heard Li Er's question, curled his lips in disgust and said, "If he really dares to gamble, then just get married normally."
"If we get married normally, wouldn't that harm Li Zhi?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yu's answer, Li Er and Empress Changsun's expressions suddenly changed.
