system:? ? ? ? ?
Suisui: ?????
Onlookers: ?????
Li Xiao curled his lips, and the corners of his mouth, pulled by the scar, revealed a forced smile.
He replied calmly, "Okay."
The system is sending out kitten question mark emojis in my head! ?
Is that it?
General God of War, plus a prince of a different surname, which of these two titles is not more powerful than a top scholar?
What's more, he has offended the entire royal family. I don't know how long he can remain the top scholar!
Qiao Luoluo wanted to marry him, naturally, in order to complete the mission, and also because she really admired this man inexplicably.
It was never intended to provoke Zeng Wanping.
However, Qiao Luoluo was still very happy to see his frustrated expression.
Qiao Luoluo laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will use you as a tool?"
Li Xiao knew that she was talking about Zeng Wanping.
He said calmly, "It is my lifelong honor to be able to serve as your tool, Princess. Please feel free to use me."
After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed the whip in her hand to show his submission.
This caused cheers and boos from the onlookers.
Qiao Luoluo lowered his eyes, retracted the whip, and smiled with pursed lips.
He dared not refuse, because whoever the princess chose would become her consort.
No one has the right to refuse, otherwise it would be a slap in the emperor's face, and the crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by death according to the law.
Little did he know that Li Xiao also had his own plans.
The emperor had long been wary of his achievements, and he was exhausted both physically and mentally from dealing with internal and external issues.
Rather than ending up with your entire family being executed, it is better to stop before it is too late.
It was a good opportunity for me to go home and accompany my mother. After my father passed away many years ago, my mother has been taking care of the housework and has been in poor health.
However, Li Xiao was proud by nature and would rather die in glory than live in disgrace.
It would be better for him to die on the battlefield than to surrender his military power for no reason.
Marrying a princess is the best way.
Not only can he transfer power painlessly, but he can also give enough face to the emperor and himself.
What’s not to like?
Besides, the princess is the emperor's sister.
Didn’t the little emperor always want to monitor him and find out if he had any second thoughts?
Then let him spy as much as he wants.
Li Xiao was injured in a battle in his early years, and the doctor concluded that he would be unable to have children.
He didn't want to delay the good girl, so he asked people to spread rumors that he was a murderer and had no interest in women.
By the way, he disguised himself with an ugly face so that the ladies in the capital would not dare to marry him.
Since the princess married him, he naturally would not treat her unfairly.
They are served with fine clothes and delicious food, can spend money as they please, and have concubines as they please.
He would not touch the princess, and when the emperor was completely relieved of his feelings about him, he would let the princess divorce him.
It's only a year, so it's worth it to both parties.
Li Xiao had a beautiful thought, but he didn't know that from the moment their eyes met.
Many things will develop in an uncontrollable direction.
-
In the Yangxin Palace, the emperor was very angry.
First, he was angry that Zeng Wanping dared to hurt his sister in the street!
Secondly, he was angry. How could his good sister just cancel one marriage and then quickly get married to another?
Although the people of Dahua are relatively open-minded, the fact that the princess married a man in private still caused discussion in the court.
The emperor himself did not object to the marriage.
First of all, we can take away the military power of that evildoer.
Secondly, it is better for his own sister to keep an eye on him than for him to send a group of secret guards, which would leak the whole story and affect the relationship between the monarch and his subjects.
You still have to do some superficial work~
Besides, Li Xiao without military power is like a tiger without teeth and claws.
What about the general? What about the king of a different surname?
Don’t you still have to squint?
It’s just that Li Xiao’s reputation outside is really bad, and his personality is cold and sinister.
The emperor really loves his sister.
After struggling between interests and family affection, he finally chose his sister and tried to dissuade her.
But his sister was determined to get married, and he had no choice.
Although he had made up his mind, he still looked angry.
He left his sister kneeling beside him while he reviewed memorials and ignored her.
At this time, the third princess Yun Chao came in with a food box and gave her brother the cold cake she had made herself.
Yingying bowed and greeted him politely, very politely.
It can't compare to Qiao Luoluo's casualness and ease.
She stood up and looked at her fourth sister who was kneeling not far away, feeling so happy.
I heard that the number one scholar demoted her to a concubine and chose to marry a prostitute rather than her, and she was even kicked out of the house.
Tsk tsk, this bitch, relying on being a legitimate daughter, goes against me everywhere.
It's karma that this day has come to pass!
Besides, she seemed to have forgotten that the late emperor and empress had already passed away.
She, Yun Chao, is the biological daughter of the current empress dowager!
The fact that I came here today to deliver cold cakes to my brother is fake, the real reason is that I came here to see Qiao Luoluo make a fool of himself.
"Royal brother, this is made by Yun Chao himself, please try it."
"Thank you, Imperial Sister. Just let it go. You can go down first."
Yun Chao didn't notice her brother's impatience towards her at all. Instead, she gently advised him, "Royal brother, please don't blame Anhua.
Anhua is just too young and ignorant, and doesn't know how to serve others.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t be kicked out, right?
Besides, it was really inappropriate for her to live in someone else's house without even getting married to the number one scholar. It was just right for the emperor to be angry.
But she is your biological sister after all. How can siblings hold grudges overnight? Please forgive Anhua~"
Then he turned to Qiao Luoluo and said, "Anhua, quickly kowtow to the emperor and apologize, then go to the ancestral temple and kneel down to admit your mistakes to the ancestors.
