Chapter 178: Zhu Yuanzhang's Fear(1/2)

Hu Mansion.

Linglong Court.

In the main hall, Hu Weiyong glared at Chundie and Pei Jie who were hiding their mouths and snickering, then sat on a chair and looked at Hu Fei dissatisfied.

"You brat, be serious. Tell the truth, why is the prince looking for you?!"

Hu Weiyong looked at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice, a trace of anxiety inadvertently showing up again.

"It is indeed related to Mei Yin's matter, but it is not because of any poems, but because the Queen asked him about me. He knew about my affair with Princess Anqing, so he came to the palace to ask me a few words to see what I thought about him.

Is Princess Anqing sincere?"

Hu Fei smiled and said slowly.

"The Queen is asking the Prince about you? So what you said before is true?!"

"You really have an affair with Princess Anqing... and have a lifelong affair?!"

After hearing Hu Fei's words, Hu Weiyong was startled and couldn't help asking loudly. He almost said the wrong thing in his desperation.

"Why are you lying to me? Of course it's true."

Hu Fei curled his lips and smiled, and said seriously.

"Then what did His Highness the Prince tell the Queen?"

Hu Weiyong asked nervously.

"I guess I said a lot of nice things. Anyway, I think my mother-in-law likes me quite a lot."

Hu Fei smiled and said proudly.

He couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that he had passed the test of being a mother-in-law. After passing the test of being a mother-in-law, was he still far away from marrying a wife?

"Husband...mother-in-law?!"

"Wait a minute, you've even met the Queen?!"

After hearing Hu Fei's words, Hu Weiyong was surprised again and couldn't help but ask loudly.

"See you."

Hu Fei nodded and said seriously.

"You kid didn't talk nonsense, did you?!"

Hu Weiyong's heart tightened and he asked worriedly.

He understood that his son was not usually outspoken, and if he said the wrong thing, he would be in big trouble.

"No, I'm very well-behaved, so well-behaved that I don't even believe it myself."

Hu Fei couldn't help but laugh and said.

After hearing Hu Fei's answer, Hu Weiyong finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

But he was still confused about this matter. He couldn't believe that his son was actually about to become the prince-in-law, so he forced Hu Fei to tell the whole story again.

"I see. It seems that everything is God's will. Unexpectedly, my wish will come true one day. You are so lucky!"

Hu Weiyong nodded frequently and said with some emotion.

"It would be better to use another word for Yanfu. Don't forget, she will soon become your daughter-in-law, and you will become a father-in-law."

Hu Fei tilted his head and looked at Hu Weiyong, reminding him, and couldn't help but reveal a smile of gloating at the corner of his mouth.

"Well, that's right. Maybe I will be a grandfather soon. You hurry up and get married. Maybe I will have a grandchild soon. I, Hu Weiyong, will finally have a grandchild..."

Hu Weiyong looked intoxicated. As he spoke, he turned to look at Hu Fei expectantly, but Hu Fei had already stood up and walked out quickly.

"Eh? That's not right!"

"You brat, you called me a eunuch, didn't you?!"

But then, Hu Weiyong felt that something was wrong. He suddenly reacted, stood up and cursed loudly at Hu Fei who rushed out of the door.

Hu Fei let out a burst of laughter and rushed out of the back door. Hu Weiyong was so angry that he stood at the door of the main hall and jumped.

...

Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Li Qi, who was summoned to the palace, did not dare to hesitate at all and hurriedly entered the palace. After receiving permission, he quickly walked into the main hall.

"My son, Li Qi, comes to see my father."

After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Qi bowed respectfully and said loudly.

"Get up."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the sofa, waved his hand to indicate to Li Qi that he would not be polite.

Li Qi stood up slowly and glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, who looked a little solemn. He couldn't help but lower his head and didn't dare to speak. He couldn't help but murmur in his heart, wondering why His Majesty summoned him.

"I heard that you and Hu Fei have been very close recently."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Qi and asked slowly, pretending to be nonchalant.

"It's not very close to my father's return. I just invited him to be a guest at his house a few times, and I also went to Hong Bin Tower a few times."

Li Qi couldn't figure out Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning for a moment and said vaguely.

"Really? Since they are not close, why did he meet Princess Anqing when he was a guest at the Korean prince's mansion? Is it a coincidence?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and spoke slowly, with a majestic look on his face.

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Li Qi's heart tightened, and a chill spread down his back unconsciously.

"Back to Your Majesty, Hu Fei did meet Princess Anqing in the palace, but it was not arranged intentionally by me. It was really an accidental encounter. I dare not say anything false."

Li Qi hurriedly bowed respectfully and said cautiously.

He would never admit that the matter had come to this, otherwise catastrophe would be imminent.

He didn't expect that this matter would reach Zhu Yuanzhang's ears so quickly, but he soon understood that there must have been some action on the Queen's side.

"really?"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the frightened Li Qi, lowered his voice, and asked in a deep voice.

"It's absolutely true. Please tell me, Father!"

Li Qi nodded affirmatively and said loudly, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

"You don't have to be so nervous, I'm just asking casually."

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Li Qi for a long time, nodded, and spoke slowly, his tone a little calmer.

"yes."

Li Qi nodded and answered, but still did not dare to take it lightly.

"What do you think of Hu Fei? Is he really attracted to Chang Shu, or does he have other motives?"

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Qi, and asked again.

"Back to my father, Erchen felt that Hu Fei was really moved this time. When he saw Chang Shu's sister that day, Erchen had already seen it. He was really moved, and Erchen could see it.

Sister Chang Shu seems to be in love too."

"Hu Fei also wrote a poem for Sister Changshu on the spot, and Sister Changshu liked it very much."

While Li Qi was talking, he suddenly had an idea and said seriously.

"Oh? What poem?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but become interested and asked in anticipation.

"Pretty as a peach in three springs, pure as a chrysanthemum in nine autumns."

"There is a delicate beauty hidden in the corners of the eyebrows and eyes, and a gentle voice and smile."

"Quietness is like flowers shining on water, and movement is like wind blowing willows."

“We can smell the fragrance for ten miles, and know that its fragrance spreads to thousands of villages.”

Li Qi hesitated for a moment and recited the poem Hu Fei wrote that day verbatim.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard these eight lines of poetry, he hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but nodded in approval.

"Well, yes, it is indeed a good poem! His poetic talent is true. Looking at the entire capital, no one can surpass him."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said slowly.

It can be seen that he really likes this poem.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, Li Qi's heart moved and he made a decision.

"Father, actually, I have one more thing that I haven't reported to my father."

Li Qi hesitated for a moment and said slowly.
