His Majesty Li Er looked strange as he listened to Li Junxian's account.
After Li Junxian finished speaking, he stroked his beautiful beard under his chin and asked thoughtfully: "Junxian, tell me... is it possible that that bastard Fang Jun is really... Master Rabbit?"
At this time, His Majesty Li Er already roughly knew that Fang Jun might not agree with the marriage, but he still didn't realize that Fang Jun deliberately picked a fight with Li You to defile himself.
If Fang Jun knew about His Majesty Li Er's thoughts, he would probably be overjoyed. He didn't have to go to all the trouble to cause trouble. All he had to do was get two white and clean "rabbits" and raise them in a certain outer house. Once the news spread, it would be done.
I guess no matter how generous the emperor is, he can't bear that his son-in-law likes rabbits, or even is a rabbit at all, right?
No one is willing to do this, certainly His Majesty Li Er is not willing, not to mention Gao Yang is his very beloved daughter, how could he push his daughter into a pit of fire and endure the pain of loneliness for the rest of his life?
Li Junxian smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, how can I know?"
His Majesty Li Er was displeased: "If you are asked to speak, just speak. You are as cautious as a gourd with a saw-shaped gourd all day long. Could it be that in your eyes, this certain person is like Jie and Zhou, a foolish king who sins because of his words?"
These words were serious. Li Junxian quickly knelt down on one leg and said in panic: "Your Majesty, I forgive you. But I really don't know whether Fang Jun likes men or women..."
"Um?"
Li Er stared, are you still doing this?
Li Junxian had no choice but to say: "But when I look at that Fang Jun, he walks with his head raised, his eyebrows are open and open, and he is quite masculine. He is not like such an obscene and sinister person..."
He really didn't want to get involved, but His Majesty kept chasing after him, and he was afraid he would get angry if he continued to push him away.
His Majesty Li Er thought for a moment and said: "I see the same thing as you. I am afraid that Fang Jun's words are intended to give Gao Yang an illusion and make Gao Yang think he is that kind of person and take the initiative to break off the engagement."
His Majesty Li Er thought about it over and over again, and finally came up with this reason, which made him feel more and more depressed.
I am rich all over the world, and there is no royal land in the world. Naturally, my daughter is a golden branch, and even the fairies in the sky cannot compare with her.
Although Gao Yang is still young, he has picturesque features and elegant temperament. He will definitely be a first-rate beauty in the future. With his noble status and beautiful appearance, how many such lovers can there be in the world? I don’t know how many young men dream of having one like this.
They are a good match, but it is not surprising that Fang Jun, a person with a weak soul, comes to our door?
"It's totally disrespectful!"
His Majesty Li Er shouted angrily, and Li Junxian trembled with fright and became silent.
Everyone knows that His Majesty has a strong temper. Li Junxian, who has followed His Majesty for many years, knows it better. However, as he gets older this year, his anger gradually subsides, but his dignity becomes stronger.
But this kind of anger has not happened for many years.
Li Junxian silently mourned for Fang Jun in his heart: May you wish for more blessings...
"Who doesn't appreciate praise? How dare you make your father angry..."
A delicate voice sounded at the door of Tai Chi Palace.
His Majesty Li Er looked up, frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "Shu'er, this is an important military and national territory. How can you, a female prostitute, enter without permission? What a nonsense!"
When the emperor is angry, who wouldn’t be frightened?
Princess Gaoyang was not afraid and walked in with a smile as bright as a flower.
Li Junxian saluted and said, "I have met His Highness."
Princess Gaoyang smiled and said: "General Li, there is no need to be polite." After saying that, she came directly behind her father, ignoring his gloomy face, and put a pair of white jade-like hands on her father's shoulders.
The jade fingers, which are like onion tubes, use slight force to massage.
Even those who make steel are afraid of twisting their fingers.
The angry emperor couldn't help but feel relieved when faced with his daughter's gentle and carefree tricks. He laughed, closed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed his daughter's slightly unfamiliar massage skills.
Li Junxian stood up, quietly took two steps back, looked at his nose and heart, lowered his head and counted ants...
"Father, is my child's level good enough?"
Princess Gaoyang asked delicately, her words unabashedly flattering.
His Majesty Li Er smiled and said: "It's okay. Massage requires practice and improvement. But in the whole world, the only person who can be served by someone's daughter is your future husband. It's a pity.
Ah, your mother-in-law died early..."
There was a lot of emotion in the words.
Princess Gaoyang's biological mother was just a palace maid with no rank. Because she gave birth to Gao Yang, she was promoted to Jieyu. Unfortunately, she was not blessed and died of massive postpartum hemorrhage. His Majesty Li Er remembered the kindness of giving birth to a child for himself and made him the ninth concubine.
one.
Li Er has a very contradictory personality. He is cruel to his brothers and cruel to his enemies, but he loves his children very much. He is even more tolerant of his old brothers who follow him to conquer the world. He is one of the very few who can "share wealth and honor".
emperor.
Li Er loved and cared for his children and trained them carefully.
Princess Gaoyang was born without a mother, so Li Er cared very much about her, and a female official reported her daily residence and transportation. As she grew older, Princess Gaoyang turned out to be beautiful and smart, and Li Er cherished her even more.
But it was Li Er's caring heart that made everyone in the palace extremely wary of this motherless little princess. No one dared to speak out about her occasional naughty mischief, gradually developing Princess Gaoyang's proud and willful character.
This was something Li Er had not expected.
In fact, in a sense, although Li Er's love for his children is worthy of praise and he is one of the few more humane emperors in history, there must be something wrong with his education methods. Look at those who were extremely smart but ended up miserable.
The sons will know...
Princess Gaoyang said coquettishly: "Where is the husband? Even if my daughter gets married in the future, she will never serve him. No man in this world, except the father, can make my daughter serve him willingly!"
Even though his words were full of arrogance and domineering, His Majesty Li Er was always comforted and laughed and said: "Why, that Fang Yiai who 'will always pamper him, protect him, and thinks he is the most beautiful' also
no?"
Hearing this, Princess Gaoyang stopped massaging the emperor and lightly tapped the emperor on the shoulder. Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly and she said angrily: "Don't mention him. He is such a disgrace. My daughter will not marry him even if I kill him!"
His Majesty Li Er snorted: "It's your parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. How can you say you won't marry if you don't want to?"
Princess Gaoyang turned to the emperor and looked up at him. Her eye circles were a little red, and her bright big eyes were filled with mist. She bit her cherry lips as fresh as petals and said, "Father, I beg you, please don't marry the widow."
Is love okay? If you marry him, your daughter will fall into a pit of fire for the rest of her life... Any man, as long as it's not Fang Yiai, Father, my daughter begs you..."
Seeing the sobbing look of grievance in front of his daughter, Li Er, who was as stone-hearted, trembled slightly in his heart, but then recovered as before.
"Shu'er, you are a sensible daughter. I always believe that if you were a boy, you would never be inferior to any of your royal brothers. But unfortunately, you are always a girl... even if you are a girl, you
To obey your father's orders, you should also understand why your father would push his daughter into the fire pit?"
Li Er's tone was a little serious.
These are the three obediences and the four virtues, and every woman must abide by them, whether she is a wealthy person or a homeless person.
If you are not married, you will obey your father; if you are married, you will obey your husband; if your husband dies, you will obey your son.
No matter how much Li Er dotes on Princess Gaoyang, he cannot touch this bottom line.
Marriage is definitely not something you can decide on your own.
When Princess Gaoyang saw that she was so weak, her arrogant temper broke out, her neck was stiff, and she said: "Father, what you said is nice, isn't it just to win over Uncle Fang that he just hooks up with women? Even if they are golden branches and jade leaves, they will be just like an object in the end.
, give it away as a bargaining chip for your own imperial cause?"
Li Er was furious: "Who are you talking to?"
Princess Gao Yang bit her lip and looked at Li Er stubbornly, her tears falling down her smooth and white face like broken pearls.
At this moment, two children, a man and a woman, walked in from outside the main hall.
The boy, about ten years old, with handsome features, walked into the hall and bowed and saluted: "My child has seen your father."
The little girl jumped straight into Li Er's arms, stretched out her hand to grab Li Er's beautiful beard, looked at Princess Gaoyang with pear blossoms and rain, and then said to Li Er sweetly: "Father, Sister Seventeen doesn't like Fang."
