Chapter 222 The Prince Is Not Xian (Part 2) 2/5 Seeking the Moon
"How can Taiping have time to see me today?"
"How can you say this? It seems to be peaceful and unfilial."
"Hahaha, that's my fault. I've wronged my family's peace... You're here just now. Mr. Di was just talking about your brother's family. A few days ago, King Liang found me and said he wanted to become a relative of the prince's family.
I asked the old man from Di to serve as a matchmaker. Now the prince has agreed. I am trying to discuss this matter with Taiping."
Princess Taiping showed doubt when she heard this.
"The prince and the prince Liang marry, this is a good thing. But I wonder which prince Liang wants to marry, the prince's family?"
"Oh, the King of Liang means that the King of Wei has passed away, and his eldest son has grown up and wants to marry Princess Yongtai from the prince's family."
"The master of Guo is talking about Xianhui, Yongtai's beauty, and it is a blessing to succeed the King of Wei."
Princess Taiping didn't seem to care much about this marriage, and just said with a smile.
"Is that so? I also think that it is indeed a blessing to marry Yongtai after the King of Wei."
Wu Yanji is a rude man who likes to dance with guns and sticks, but not literary works. However, he is quite honest and does not have so many charms. Princess Yongtai Li Xianhui is a weak woman who knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The combination of the two can complement each other.
"In addition, the second son of King Liang, Wu Chongxun, is the Prince of Gaoyang.
Now that he has become a family, he wants to marry Princess Anle, the four daughters of Princess Anle. The prince also agrees with this marriage."
Surprisingly, Princess Taiping did not respond.
Not only did she not respond, she even frowned and showed a look of doubt.
"Taiping, what do you think?"
"Guoer is beautiful, the best in Beijing, and he is fourteen this year, and he is indeed at the age of starting a family.
But everyone, Taiping thought that this marriage was inappropriate. If the prince agreed to this marriage, it would only mean that the prince's virtue was inadequate. If it was spread, I was afraid that it would be unfavorable to the prince. If it was not done well, it would also implicate everyone. Please think twice."
"Taiping, what did you say?"
When Wu Zetian heard this, anger suddenly surged in his heart.
Among these two marriages, to be honest, the marriage between Wu Yanji and Li Xianhui was just a matchmaker, and Wu Zetian didn't value it very much. The reason was that she had never liked Wu Yanji, otherwise she would not have given him the title of "Successive King of Wei". What about Li Xianhui? The child was too bored. He didn't like to talk, and he was not happy, and Wu Zetian didn't care.
What she really values is the marriage between Wu Chongxun and Anle.
Wu Sansi is still alive, and if Wu and Li Lian's marriage one day, if she passes away one day, Wu Sansi's methods can also ensure that the Wu family is well-off. If this marriage cannot be accomplished, the marriage between Wu Yanji and Li Xianhui will no longer be important.
"Princess, please think twice. Why did the prince agree to the marriage? Is he deficient in virtue?"
A hint of anger appeared on Princess Taiping's face.
She nodded thoughtfully, as if she said to herself: "I'm just saying, why did that happen suddenly?"
"Taiping, just say something."
"Everyone, Taiping today, I will study the Prince's book."
"ah?"
"The prince of Taipinggan is that the prince's virtue is a loss, and the family and the two families are not allowed to say anything. In order to be able to marry King Liang, people were sent to assassinate the in-laws. If such actions are spread, my Li family will have no face."
Di Renjie was so excited that he turned his head and looked at Princess Taiping in horror.
Li Xian is your brother. If you say that, don’t you want to kill the prince?
"Princess, what you said seriously?"
"really."
"Do you know who will the prince beg for peace before? When will he marry? Is there any evidence?"
At this time, Wu Zetian also showed a nervous look.
If what Princess Taiping said was true, then she would have underestimated Li Xian too much. She thought Li Xian was a fool, but at least she was kind. But if he did not hesitate to assassinate his in-laws in order to marry King Liang, then his character would be problematic.
"Come!"
"I'm here."
Outside the house, an eunuch hurried in.
"Immediately announce the Prince's visit... I'm passing on my decree. No one should walk within 300 steps of the Sun Tower. Anyone who violates the situation shall be killed without any punishment."
Anger arose in Wu Zetian's heart.
She felt that she had been deceived by Li Xian.
Di Renjie looked at Princess Taiping and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Princess Taiping seemed very leisurely. Not only was she not nervous at all, but she was relaxed. She still had a little anger on her face, and sat down on a brocade stool in front of Wu Zetian's desk, and even picked up a cup of honey water from the desk.
After about half an hour, Li Xian hurried over.
He was a little disheveled, panting and sweating.
Seeing his appearance, Princess Taiping's face suddenly showed disdain.
Li Xian didn't know what was going on. When he came in, he saw Di Renjie also, and a happy look appeared on his face.
"Taiping is here too."
He greeted Princess Taiping, then stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Wu Zetian.
"My son, please pay homage to everyone."
Wu Zetian held the desk with one hand, leaned forward, his phoenix eyes widened, and his eyes were staring at Li Xian with a burning look.
Li Xian didn't feel anything at first, but gradually, he became a little scared and stood there.
"Taiping, confront the prince with what you just said."
"yes."
Princess Taiping bowed, stood up and walked to Li Xian.
Li Xian was a little confused. He looked at Princess Taiping and asked in confusion: "Taiping, what are you going to confront me?"
Princess Taiping sneered, "Prince, Taiping heard some rumors outside, so he wanted to ask the prince for advice."
"I dare not take it for advice, what did you hear?"
Li showed a confused look, scratching his head, puzzled.
"Crown Prince, I heard you are going to marry King Liang?"
"Ah, you heard about Taiping, too? Haha, there is such a thing. I also said that I will tell you after reporting to everyone."
A smile suddenly appeared on Li Xian's face and nodded repeatedly.
Princess Taiping's face turned cold, "Then Taiping wants to ask, which princess under your knees do you want to betroth the son of King Liang?"
"It's peaceful. She's already fourteen and can get married."
"Then Taiping asks you again, will Anle have an engagement before?"
"engagement?"
