"Husband, we know we were wrong."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard it and didn't care.

Unless you are the king, who would be willing to pay to support other people's people? There are many rich people in Silla. Pearls are produced there. In addition, the area north of Liaodong now belongs to Silla, and the mineral resources are also rich. However, the king alone may not have much money.

"Okay, it's over now. We're all family, how can you get angry over something as simple as snow?"

"It's cold in the north, so it's normal to see snow all year round, but it's much better in the south."

"But snow in June is not normal even in the north."

Li Xiuzhu paused, thoughtful.

"Is the Little Iceberg coming?"

"If so, it seems we need to stock up on food."

Little Ice Age? Stockpiling food?

This won't be a big deal, right?

For a moment, Fu Yuehua's face became serious.

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Fu Yuehua inadvertently and immediately had a new idea.

"Even if it's a small glacier, it won't be a big problem. We just need to prepare early."

Li Xiuzhu didn't dare to think too much about it, because in addition to the small glacier, there is also the big glacier. He didn't know when the last big ice age was in this world, but he shouldn't be that unlucky.

Fu Yuehua became even more worried when she heard this. Just as Li Xiuzhu knew that she could eavesdrop, she also knew that Li Xiuzhu knew that she could eavesdrop on his thoughts.

So could it be that what the husband is saying now is to comfort her?

Just then, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly came over.

Su Xiaoxiao's behavior immediately attracted the attention of a lot of people.

After all, Su Xiaoxiao is a lady from Hongxiuyuan and has many suitors.

Li Liuli looked at Su Xiaoxiao warily without saying anything, as if she wanted to see what Su Xiaoxiao would say.

Li Xiuzhu looked at Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "What's this, little girl?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said softly, "His Royal Highness Prince Jin said that the Marquis has been busy recently, and asked me to toast the Marquis with a glass of wine."

“Although there are no poetry gatherings these past two days, there are still many good places to go as the New Year is coming to an end.”

"His Royal Highness Prince Jin asked Xiaoxiao to take the Marquis around."

"My Lord, please see when you are free."

Su Xiaoxiao asked when you are free, not whether you want to go...

This is the arrangement for him.

Li Xiuzhu was silent for a moment, thought for a moment and then said, "How about the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month?"

"Li Chengyu is probably trying to win me over. I've been to the prince's mansion. If I don't respond, he will probably think I'm the prince's man."

"It seems that I can only accept it first, and then deal with it as it happens."

Su Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She was really worried that Li Xiuzhu would refuse and would not be able to complete the prince's instructions.

"Okay, on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaoxiao will be waiting for you at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion."

"Um."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't stay for long. She poured the wine, drank a glass with Li Xiuzhu and left, which made her brother, who was at the top of the list, feel relieved.

Well, from the second to the tenth place on the list, there are many so-called talented people here who came here for Su Xiaoxiao. Although not all of them wrote poems, there are quite a few who did.

After Su Xiaoxiao left, Li Liuli couldn't help but frown.

"My husband, the struggle for imperial power is very dangerous. It is best for us not to get involved."

"And the prince is my brother, my husband..."

Li Xiuzhu nodded and said softly, "Don't worry, your husband knows how to choose."

Li Xiuzhu paused for a moment, then looked at Li Liuli and asked, "I didn't realize my Liuli is so smart. When did you realize that?"

Li Liuli pursed her lips and said, "I just realized it. I didn't expect that my third brother hid it so deeply."

Li Liuli's eyes were filled with sarcasm and disdain when she spoke, and no one knew why.

Li Biyao smiled after hearing their conversation and asked Li Liuli, "Is it because Su Xiaoxiao is here?"

Upon hearing this, Li Liuli immediately sneered with even more disdain, "Yes, you see Su Xiaoxiao looks worthless, it's obvious that she's going to give it away for free."

"When I mentioned that my third brother had built a brothel for Su Xiaoxiao, I saw my husband frowning slightly and realized that I might have been overthinking it."

"Now that I think about it, it's true. If my third brother really liked Su Xiaoxiao, he could have kept her in the outer house. Even if she was the daughter of a criminal eunuch, it wouldn't be difficult to get her out secretly."

"Then why put it in a brothel? Now you act like you want to give it to your husband for free."

"It seems that my third brother has set his sights on my brother's position as the crown prince."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Speaking of which, this Red Sleeve Tower was built after my prince brother's male favorite was beheaded. It seems that incident gave him hope."

My goodness, is this the royal family? They take every step carefully and take advantage of every opportunity?

All of a sudden, except for Li Xiuzhu and the other three, all the concubines nearby were paralyzed.

After all, people who come out of the border areas never think about these intrigues.

The poetry reading was basically over at this point, and after dinner, it was already dark.

This was not because it was the hour of You, but because the snow was getting heavier and the sky was getting dark.

"My dear gentlemen and ladies, the snow is heavy and the roads are slippery. Please drive slowly and be careful."

After seeing off the last group of people, Su Xiaoxiao did not return to Hongxiuyuan, but stayed.

"Everyone is gone? What do you think of Li Xiuzhu? Can he be used by me?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "I don't quite understand Li Xiuzhu. The only thing I can understand is that he is rather lustful, which can be seen from the number of his wives."

"By the way, he should be very good to his wife. I think he is also a sentimental person."

Li Chengyu tapped the armrest unconsciously, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "How did you know that?"

Su Xiaoxiao seemed to think of Li Xiuzhu's wives when she heard this. After a moment of silence, she replied, "His wives all smile sweetly. They smile from the heart and are happy smiles."

"Plus, their words and actions are very relaxed. They will only indulge themselves like this if they are spoiled to the extreme."

Li Chengyu thought about it after hearing this and continued, "You mean Li Xiuzhu is now the prince's person? After all, the prince's sister is his wife."

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and shook her head.

"I can't guarantee that. Based on previous intelligence, Li Xiuzhu is a bit lazy and needs to be pushed to move."

"Then do you think he would help me if you became his woman?"

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and shook her head.

"I don't think so. At most, they will not help either side."

"And your highness, you know that Xiaoxiao only has His Highness Prince Jin in her heart. Please take back your order."

Li Chengyu was silent again after hearing this. He thought for a long time before speaking: "Let's win him over first. At least we have to make him not help either of them."

Suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes darkened, as if they had lost their light.

Li Chengyu seemed to know that he should give the other party some hope, so he added: "I know what you are thinking. When I ascend the throne, I will satisfy you and make you my woman."

"Xiaoxiao, I have you in my heart."

Fortunately, Li Xiuzhu is not here, otherwise I would have to complain.

Wow, he really plays pua very well.
