Li Fu seemed to understand the Crown Princess' intentions. This was the beginning of his control over the aristocracy...
But he just smiled and shook his head, thinking that the Crown Princess's trick might be useful to others.
But he never thought that he could fight against the entire Li family.
Moreover, among the young talents who were won over by the Crown Princess, he was the only one who was truly from the Li family, one of the four great noble families.
Although other people were also of noble birth, as long as they were below the four nobles, they were just like ants in front of the royal family.
As long as they get the support of the Crown Princess, these people can really accomplish great things in their own family.
Except him.
But he also didn't think that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess was so stupid as to rely on him, a peripheral member of the Li family with no power or territory, to challenge the main branch of the Li family.
You know, the current main vein of the Li family is very amazing!
Moreover, the Crown Princess's maternal family is the Li family.
Her biological mother, the queen, is Li Fengen, the eldest daughter of the old head of the Li family.
The queen's younger sister, Li Fengci, the second daughter of the old head of the Li family, married into the Quan family and is now the mistress of the second branch of the Quan family.
Even if Li Fu had a hundred times the courage, he would not dare to provoke such a behemoth.
It's too cheap for Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to think that she can win over his heart with just an invitation.
Li Fu understood everything clearly and waited quietly outside the side hall.
The young men in front of him were called in one by one.
When they came out, their faces were all filled with the same ecstasy.
Li Fu was the last one to go in.
With some curiosity, he stepped into the threshold of the side hall.
But when he came out, he looked dazed and almost tripped over the threshold.
After coming out, I met my father and stepmother's family in the square outside.
He was very surprised, but his father said proudly, "Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess gave us a special invitation out of your kindness!"
"Afu, you are highly valued by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. You must serve her wholeheartedly until your death!"
"Our whole family is proud of you!"
Even his stepmother, who used to look down on him, apologized hesitantly, saying, "Afu, I was bad-tempered before and shouldn't have ignored you."
"Go home. You are your father's eldest son. From now on, this house will belong to you."
She said it reluctantly and was almost crying, but she had to say it.
Because Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has already sent someone to warn her.
If she dares to try to seize the family property and give it all to her own children as she did before, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess will order her husband to divorce her!
And she was well aware of her husband's virtues.
As long as he can get in touch with the Crown Princess, he will do it even if it means killing her!
Under this panic, the stepmother also compromised.
No matter how good your family fortune is, it’s all in vain if you don’t have the life to enjoy it, right?
But Li Fu was not happy at all.
That night, he was like a puppet, being taken by his father and stepmother to greet relatives and old friends.
When they learned that their family was invited by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess with a special invitation, even the old head of the Li family, the Grand Duke, sent someone to invite Li Fu and his father to come over for a talk.
The old Duke of the Li family glanced sharply at Li Fu, then looked at Li Fu's father and said kindly, "Don't do such foolish things again."
"My first wife's son seems to have a promising future. How can I just abandon him and leave him alone?"
"Do your best in the future. There are many vacancies within the Li family. Go see Hanhai tomorrow and tell him that it was me who asked you to find a position."
Li Hanhai is the first heir of the Li family. He is the eldest son of the old duke and the elder brother of Queen Li Fengen and Quan's second wife Li Fengci.
Li Fu's father was overjoyed and almost kowtowed to the old patriarch.
The old patriarch looked at Li Fu again and asked with a smile, "Afu, come home from now on and don't make a living outside."
"We are a wealthy family, and we don't need you to earn money to support the family."
"Go find your uncle, I'll ask him to train you well."
The promise made to Li Fu was even higher than the promise made to Li Fu's father!
This is as it should be.
Because Li Fu is young, there are unlimited possibilities in the future.
Li Fu's father was already showing signs of old age.
Li Fu's heart was pounding.
He had never expected that things would develop to this point.
This was a scene that he had never dared to imagine in his dreams when he was young.
But now that it has all come true, he still feels a sense of panic and anxiety.
…
After this night, the entire upper aristocratic circle knew that the Li family had welcomed back the eldest son of the original wife who had died young and was kicked out of the house by his stepmother.
And this person's name is Lifu.
