Chapter 132
Huo Yunxuan looked at Li Zhiwei for a while, then smiled.
I thought to myself, this girl has quite a temper.
However, she looks quite cute when she's angry.
"Miss Li, are you sure you want me to tell you now?" Huo Yunxuan asked, raising an eyebrow.
After all, if Li Zhiwei heard what he was about to say, she might not be able to finish the meal with him.
“Young Master Huo, please speak freely,” Li Zhiwei said firmly.
“Since that’s the case, then I, Huo, will speak.” Huo Yunxuan looked at Li Zhiwei and said in a seductive tone.
"Lord Li said he wants to break off the engagement with the Prince of An's mansion and marry you to me. He wants you to spend your time in Li'an County cultivating your relationship with me." After saying this, Huo Yunxuan's lips curled into an ambiguous smile.
"Impossible!" Li Zhiwei stood up without thinking. She felt that her father would never say such a thing.
However, considering Li Tianyou's resistance to Xu Heming, it doesn't seem impossible that he would say something like that.
“Why is it impossible? Although Prince An is a prince, he has a child. If you marry him, you will become his second wife and stepmother. Your father has long been dissatisfied with this.” Huo Yunxuan said with an air of seriousness.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei's face turned pale. She knew that her father had never wanted her to marry Xu Heming.
After all, Xu Heming was a widower and had a child named Xu Qingshi.
Since Li Tianyou would say such things to this young master Huo, he must really be considering having her marry Huo Yunxuan.
But how could that be?
Li Zhiwei didn't think her father would impulsively say such a thing, since it was an imperial decree that she was to marry Prince An. After all, it was a capital offense.
“My marriage to Prince An was bestowed by His Majesty. My father would never utter such a rebellious word,” Li Zhiwei said firmly.
Huo Yunxuan's expression darkened.
Thinking to himself, Li Zhiwei does have some brains; she wasn't easily fooled.
However, if this reason doesn't work, doesn't he have another plan?
"That depends on whether Prince An is trustworthy, right? Your father only has you as his daughter, and he has cherished you since you were little. His greatest hope is that you will have a good marriage. If Prince An is a wolf in sheep's clothing and cannot give you happiness, your father would refuse this marriage even if it costs him his life, wouldn't he?" Huo Yunxuan thought to himself that the Li family could use that generous dowry to pave a smooth road for them.
He could also use money to plead with the emperor to rescind his decision.
Besides, Prince An bought counterfeit wine to serve to his father-in-law; he can't escape this crime.
"Has something happened to my father in the capital?" Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei first frowned, then stared intently at Huo Yunxuan and asked.
Upon hearing this, Qinghua and Qingyue, who were standing nearby, also frowned.
What does this person mean by saying that?
Are they trying to undermine the prince?
How can this be?
However, even though they were anxious, they couldn't say anything at that moment.
All he could do was think about trying to persuade Li Zhiwei later, since the prince wasn't that kind of person.
"Lord Li is alright now, but a few days ago, he was almost poisoned by the wine sent by Prince An. Fortunately, Supervisor Zhou and the doctor I sent treated him in time, otherwise, Lord Li would have been in danger," Huo Yunxuan said with a sad expression.
However, he specifically emphasized that the doctor was someone he had sent.
"What?" Li Zhiwei was shocked.
Did Xu Heming give his father poisoned wine?
That's impossible!
