[Dominate the Imperial Academy] A bloody case caused by a meal [149]
The golden crow falls and the laurel rises in the east.
The night quickly filled the land, and the bright stars shone in the dark sky, shedding silvery colors.
The huge Yingchun Tower is covered with a layer of silver brilliance, adding to its charm.
As soon as it got dark, the door of Yingchun Tower was already closed.
On the second floor, in the top-notch private room of the Moon Room, King Xuanyuan changed into a light-colored brocade robe. He was not as cold as he was in the daytime. His face, which was over forty but still handsome, had a rare smile.
Everyone has taken their seats, except for the seat next to King Xuanyuan, which is reserved for the city lord Ge Shuyue.
In Xuanyuan Continent, the only person who dared to make King Xuanyuan wait without a trace of impatience was Ge Shuyue.
Since it was a family dinner, everyone was not restrained.
While waiting, they chatted.
"Eighth Master, we just met today, so I don't have time to congratulate you!" Di Qinglong spoke loudly and raised his glass to Xuanyuan Jue from afar.
"You're welcome, Elder Di." Xuanyuan Jue curled his lips and smiled slightly, but his deep eyes were still cold and devoid of smiles.
"Fourth Master and Eighth Master have already married their ninth concubine back home. You, the elder brother, are inferior to me." Turning back, Di Qinglong looked at Xuanyuan Li who was sitting next to him, as if joking.
said.
"Elder Di is joking, I can't compare to Lao Ba's popularity with women." Xuanyuan Li also raised his eyes with a clear smile and cleverly changed the subject.
"Bago, you are going to ruin this girl." Xuanyuan Che glared at Xuanyuan Jue with an unhappy look on his face. He was addicted to marrying a wife.
"Che'er, why are you talking?" Xuanyuan Che was sitting next to Di Waner. Di Waner turned around and glared at him, pretending to be angry, and then faced Xuanyuan Jue, "Baby, Che'er didn't hold back her words.
Don’t take it to heart.”
Xuanyuan Jue's mother-in-law died early, and now she is also her son in name. Naturally, she cannot favor one over the other in front of King Xuanyuan.
"Eleventh brother is just a half-grown child, I don't care, Queen Mother." Xuanyuan Jue still smiled, but then turned to look at Xuanyuan Li, "Fourth brother, Qingwu has been following you for many years.
It’s time for you to give him a name!”
"Fourth, after so many years, it's time for you to calm down." Even King Xuanyuan spoke up. He knew what his son was thinking. Although Zhong Xiaoxiao, a woman, was powerful, after all,
It cannot be put on the stage.
The only person worthy of being the fourth child in their family is Di Qingwu, who is both talented and beautiful and has a noble status.
Of course, since Zhong Xiaoxiao came back from the Doomsday Forest, he has given up the idea of getting rid of this woman. If the fourth child is willing, it is not impossible to become a concubine.
Xuanyuan Li looked a little embarrassed and was about to speak, but Di Qingwu's clear and melodious voice sounded beside him, "Your Majesty, Qingwu is still young. She still wants to do more for the Di family and the Imperial Academy, and she has not considered marriage yet.
event."
She knew what Xuanyuan Li was thinking, so in order to avoid embarrassment, she might as well refuse it herself.
However, Xuanyuan Li belongs to her, and no one can take it away from her, especially Zhong Xiaoxiao.
"Haha, girl Qingwu, I am not a stubborn person. Even if the fourth child marries you, you are still the outer dean of the Imperial College. There is no need to stay behind closed doors to support your husband and raise your children." King Xuanyuan laughed and said.
, Di Qingwu said with a blush on his face, a bit embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, Wan'er doesn't dare to risk the world. Even such an outstanding person as my aunt stayed in the palace!" Di Qingwu raised his head slightly shyly and moved Di Wan'er out.
Before Di Wan'er married into the palace, she was the outer dean of the Imperial College.
"Your Majesty, since Wan'er insists on doing this, why not let her get engaged to Li'er first! Anyway, they are childhood sweethearts. If it hadn't been for Qing Rong's affair, I'm afraid my concubines would already have their grandsons in their arms by now." Di Wan
Er looked at King Xuanyuan with a smile and gave gentle suggestions.
"I don't agree." Loud voices sounded at the same time.
Of course it was not Di Qingwu who wanted to marry Xuanyuan Li.
King Xuanyuan looked at Xuanyuan Che with displeasure and scolded angrily, "Is it your turn to comment on your fourth brother's marriage?" He then turned to Xuanyuan Li, "Fourth brother, if Qingwu's conditions match yours, you
Are you still aggrieved?"
"Father, my son already has his heart, but I just don't want to wrong Qing Wu." Xuanyuan Li stood up with a respectful expression, but his pair of narrow and deep eyes were extremely determined.
He would no longer be the eighteen-year-old Xuanyuan Li, letting his father dictate his marriage.
Little Xie'er, if I marry you, the price I will pay is the entire Xuanyuan Continent. I, Xuanyuanli, have no regrets.
"Presumptuous." Sure enough, King Xuanyuan was furious. He already knew everything, but he didn't expect that his son would dare to say it in front of everyone.
At the beginning, he clearly had no interest in Di Qingrong's matter, but he accepted his arrangement calmly.
It's all that woman's fault for letting her son disobey her orders.
It's simply an unforgivable crime.
"Fourth child, you are my son. The marriage contract is naturally decided by the parents and the matchmaker. Ordinary people are like this, let alone you, the prince of a country?"
"My son has obeyed my father's order and married the daughter of the emperor's family." Xuanyuan Li looked at King Xuanyuan with an expressionless face and a cold and tough tone.
In the six years since he ran away from home after his wedding, he has never mentioned this matter in front of his father.
Di Qingwu looked at Xuanyuan Li with tears in her eyes. She never knew that that bitch woman had such an important position in Xuanyuan Li's heart, so important that he would rather fight against King Xuanyuan than marry him.
Own.
But she is not one of those ignorant women and children. She knows what is best for herself and what will make Xuanyuan Li look at her with admiration.
She just hid her tears, stood up after her, and spoke softly to King Xuanyuan, "Your Majesty, A Li is only afraid of marriage because of what happened to Qing Rong, which had such a great impact on him. Please don't be angry.
.”
At the beginning, King Xuanyuan only knew about one aspect of Emperor Qingrong's affairs, but not the other.
The fact that the man who defiled Di Qingrong was his eighth son has long been suppressed. Except for Xuanyuan Li, Di Qingwu and others, even Di Wan'er didn't know.
Therefore, they mentioned it again and again, which made Xuanyuan Jue's face become a little nervous.
If this matter is revealed, his father's heart is not towards him, and he will be further and further away from the throne.
He was the one who instigated the matter. Although he was not happy, he had no choice but to stand up and plead for Xuanyuan Li. "Father, my son and I have seen the woman that fourth brother likes. She is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among men, and Qingwu
In comparison, it is not inferior at all.”
What he said made Xuanyuan Li a little surprised, but it also made Di Qingwu give him a cold look.
