If Li Xuzhi's words were truly followed, the Seventh Prince would never think about getting ahead in this life.
"Having said that..."
However, the seventh prince did not dwell too much on this matter.
After all, Lian Chengqing's matter was not made public. It could be said that the Seventh Prince felt that no one except him and the Seventh Princess knew the true whereabouts of the bribes Lian Chengqing accepted.
The seventh prince felt that he had a guilty conscience.
Li Xuzhi just gave a casual word of comfort, but he actually thought of that aspect. How could Li Xuzhi be sarcastic about him?
"It's just that my father grounded me and took back all my affairs and handed them over to Sir Wei. I'm afraid that when I can take over again, I won't be able to keep busy and will become rusty."
After the seventh prince felt that he had thought too much, he continued his purpose of inviting Li Xuzhi today.
"Now the Great Zhou Kingdom is in a troubled time, and national affairs are as numerous as stars every day. I just want to do something for the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom, so as to share the pressure of my father. It is a pity that such a small wish of mine cannot be realized.
"
The seventh prince is playing the family card.
Li Xuzhi shook his head secretly. The seventh prince did not act smart at the critical moment.
If the Seventh Prince feels that in his heart, he is the Seventh Prince's confidant, then what the Seventh Prince said is too outrageous.
After the seventh prince said so much, didn't he just hope that he would help and persuade Lord Wei?
Too much foreshadowing will only appear artificial and hypocritical.
"The emperor will understand the seventh prince's intention."
The seventh prince played the family card, and Li Xuzhi also played the courtier card to comfort the seventh prince.
"Wei Chen never thought that while Wei Chen was recuperating behind closed doors, the Seventh Prince would have so much sorrow in his heart. Wei Chen was only annoyed that his body had not fully recovered. Otherwise, Wei Chen would have listened to the Seventh Prince's sorrow.
, so that the Seventh Prince can feel comfortable."
Li Xuzhi's tone was almost like "a complete mess", but the meaning behind his words showed that he could only be a "bosom brother" at best.
"Xuzhi, is there any misunderstanding between you and me? Otherwise, how could it be that Xu Zhi, as smart as he is, doesn't understand what I need most right now."
The seventh prince listened for a long time and felt that what Li Xuzhi said was all nonsense and he was not willing to say a word of important words.
Finally, the seventh prince couldn't bear it any longer and showed signs of making a clear decision.
"No, there is no misunderstanding. It's just that Wei Chen has learned something recently."
Li Xuzhi shook his head. Since the Seventh Prince wanted to make it clear, he would naturally accompany him.
Because he has decided that from now on, he will break away from the Seventh Prince's influence. From now on, he will no longer be "the Seventh Prince's man".
"Oh, what did Xu Zhi know that changed so much?"
The seventh prince's expression changed. Although he still had a faint smile, there was a more ferocious flavor in his smile.
"What Wei Chen knows is all about Wei Chen himself, so I won't mention it today."
Li Xuzhi shook his head and did not tell the seventh prince about the matter.
"Xuzhi, I still remember that when you took refuge with me, you seemed to have said that you wanted revenge. Now that your strength has greatly increased, have you ever thought about whether it's time for you to take revenge?"
The seventh prince had to admit that Li Xuzhi was a very careful person.
Li Xuzhi never made it clear what revenge he wanted to take.
