Li Yulong sighed quietly and said miserably: "You think I don't want to do that? But my father said that I will never be allowed to reconcile with Du Huaigong. If I dare to reconcile privately, he will break my legs and deny me as his daughter.
How can I go to your house to propose marriage?"
Although she was married to Du Huaigong, the two of them lived together for only a few days.
Du Huaigong was a typical playboy who only wanted to eat, drink and have fun without seeking advancement. This was completely different from the strong and determined Li Yulong. He really didn't like him at all. Especially when his father Li Ji planned to recruit Du Huaigong into the army during the Eastern Expedition.
To give him some military honors, he would be able to gain a good background and get an official position in the future. Unexpectedly, Du Huaigong refused to obey even to the point of death. He even spread rumors that Li Ji's move was not to praise him, but actually wanted to kill him in the army.
, in order to find a new son-in-law for his daughter...
For this reason, Li Ji was so angry that he dropped countless cups.
Li Yulong has a strong temper. Didn't you say that my father is trying to find a new son-in-law for me? Well, let's just make peace with each other. From now on, the bridge will return to the bridge and the road will return to the road.
But there is one thing. After a woman reconciles, no matter what the reason for the divorce is, it is like boiled water spinach. It is worthless. A good family will never want it, unless it is a golden branch like the royal princess. That family
What I covet is your wealth and glory, not you alone...
It was precisely for this reason that Li Ji firmly opposed it.
Li Yulong is an independent thinker, but he is not afraid of Li Ji's objection. As long as he can make peace with her, what does it matter if he breaks his leg?
But after the divorce, it will be difficult to find a suitable husband. A good man doesn't want you at all...
She then turned her attention to Fang Jun.
Fang Jun and Li Siwen were close friends, and the two families were family friends. They knew each other well since childhood. Before getting married, Li Yulong also had a girl's dream. When he first fell in love, he even dreamed of marrying Fang Jun one day. Unfortunately, Fang Jun
His Majesty had already arranged for Princess Gaoyang to be married off early on. Even the daughter of the British Duke Li Ji could only look forward to it and lament that God's will is playing tricks on people.
Now that she and Du Huaigong have reconciled, she would be satisfied if she could marry into the Fang family as a concubine.
It's just that she knew Fang Jun's personality well and was afraid that he would not marry her against her father Li Ji's wishes, so she came up with a "false way to defeat Guo" and asked Xiao Shu'er to help her negotiate.
Logically speaking, Xiao Shuer may not be the most favored among Fang Jun's wives, but because she was born in a lonely life, she is definitely the one that Fang Jun pities the most. Fang Jun may refute the words of Princess Gaoyang or Wu Meiniang, but for Xiao Shuer's request
, absolutely cannot bear to refuse.
Li Yulong sighed softly. It was really difficult for him. In order to marry himself to the person of his dreams, he racked his brains and made all kinds of calculations. It was really sad...
Seeing her sad expression, Fang Xiuzhu felt sorry for herself. She held her hand with her back and comforted her: "Don't worry, I would also like to see you become my sister-in-law, and I will definitely help you with all my strength. But... you also
Don't have too much hope, Sister-in-law Shu'er may seem delicate and quiet, but she's not stupid at all. Once she finds out, I'm afraid there won't be any hope."
Feeling the encouragement from the little sisters, Li Yulong gritted his teeth and said in a clear voice: "If it can be done, that would be the best. If not, then I will kneel at the door of your Fang family. If your second brother doesn't marry me, I won't get up."
!”
Fang Xiuzhu was startled, her little face turned pale, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "Absolutely not, absolutely not! Are you crazy?! If that's the case, where will the face of my Fang family and your Li family go?
put?"
Li Yulong snorted and clenched her pink fists: "Anyway, after the divorce, a good family will not want me to be their official wife. If it is a concubine, I will stick to you and become my brother's concubine. No one else can even think about it!"
Fang Xiuzhu was speechless and could only comfort her: "Good sister, don't worry, we will plan slowly, but we must not force the second brother to marry you, otherwise things will definitely backfire and there will be no room for change."
What kind of person is the second brother?
The more you force him to do something he doesn't want to do, the less likely you are to succeed. It's a typical case of taking the soft rather than the hard. If Li Yulong really wants to coerce the second brother, the final outcome can only be a breakup.
, even the previous feelings are gone.
Li Yulong naturally knew this, and nodded: "Don't worry, I will never do that unless it is absolutely necessary. I just want to wrong my sister, so please help her more..."
Fang Xiuzhu had no choice but to say: "Take your time, to be honest, I think there is little hope of success..."
*****
Fang Jun didn't know that someone coveted his "beauty" and vowed to be his concubine. After the lunch banquet, Lu Yanqing took his leave, and Fang Jun left the house and went straight out of the city to the academy.
Halfway through the road, as he was riding on his horse, Wei Ying suddenly said "Huh" and pointed at an oncoming carriage in front of him and said, "That's the frame of the young lady's carriage."
Fang Jun took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case.
Fang Xiuzhu's carriage was specially customized by Fang's workshop. It had unique markings and was easy to identify. She immediately rode up to meet it.
The driver of the car naturally recognized Erlang, so he quickly slowed down, stopped on the side of the road, jumped out of the carriage and saluted, "I have seen Erlang before."
Fang Jun was riding on a horse, holding a riding crop in his hand. He said "hmm" and asked, "Where did you go?"
The coachman said: "My lady is bored today and wants to go out for a walk in the city. She just went to the temple in the south of the city."
While he was talking, Fang Jun had already arrived at the car. He stretched out his hand to lift the curtain and looked inside. He saw his little sister sitting in the car with a nervous look on her face. When she saw him, she hurriedly said hello: "Two...two."
Brother."
In the carriage, Li Yulong was sitting upright, his slender waist straight, a smile on his beautiful face, and he said in a clear voice: "Second brother, you are polite."
His voice was trembling a little, and his small hands were clenched tightly, and his palms were already slightly sweaty.
Who would have thought that this person who had just been discussed in the temple would suddenly appear in front of them in the blink of an eye?
I'm so nervous...
Fang Jun frowned and subconsciously felt that the expressions of the two little girls were a little unnatural, so he said in a deep voice: "Why did you two run so far for nothing? Where did you go and who did you meet?"
Fang Xiuzhu said hurriedly: "No, no, I just felt bored, so I went out to play with Sister Yulong. It was just the two of us and we didn't see anyone!"
Li Yulong was even more afraid of Fang Jun misunderstanding: "I swear, I will never see anyone else!"
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of the lie, Fang Jun had to give up, nodded, and said: "It doesn't matter if you go out for fun, but don't go too far, and bring more people with you. The girl's family, if there is any accident, the family
How can we not be worried? Okay, brother, hurry to the academy and you guys go home quickly."
"oh."
"Um."
The curtains of the car were lowered, the sound of horse hooves sounded, Fang Jun gradually went away, and the two women let out a collective sigh.
Fang Xiuzhu complained: "It's all your fault. It makes people seem to have done something bad. Seeing that my second brother is so guilty, he doesn't dare to say anything."
Li Yulong thought to himself, am I not nervous?
I don't know why, in the past, when I was in front of Du Huaigong, I was bossy and unscrupulous and didn't care about my image. But every time I faced Fang Jun, I was always hesitant and timid, fearing that I would make a mistake and offend Fang Jun...
Is this what is called the more you like and care about someone, the more you will be inferior to others and look down upon them?
Li Yulong's pretty face turned red and her mind wandered.
…
After saying goodbye to the two women, Fang Jun galloped all the way to the academy. After dismounting from his horse, he went straight into the duty room. When he saw a clerk coming forward to salute him, he asked, "Is Mr. Xu here?"
The clerk said: "We are settling the accounts in the duty room. Do you want me to go and call you?"
Fang Jun waved his hand and said: "No need, I will go there in person."
Then he went directly to Xu Jingzong's check-in room and pushed the door in. Xu Jingzong, who was sitting at his desk checking accounts, was startled. He quickly put down his pen and stood up, saying: "Erlang is so busy, but something important happened?"
Fang Jun came to the writing desk, sat on a chair on one side, and said bluntly: "I want to impeach Chang Sun Wuji. Chief Secretary Xu will draft a memorial for me, and I will send it directly to the Political Affairs Hall later."
Xu Jingzong was surprised at first, and then he beamed with joy: "Impeach Changsun Wuji? As for what I haven't said yet, I will try my best to draft a qualified memorial for Erlang."
A clerk came in and offered tea. Fang Jun asked him to put the tea on the desk, and then kicked him out. He told Xu Jingzong about the news he had obtained from Lu Yanqing, and then said angrily: "I want to impeach Changsun Wu."
Avoid frame-ups and malicious false accusations. Come and speak to me. The more vehemently the better. There is no need to show mercy. If you can make that sinister Changsun Wuji angry to death, I will remember you as your first meritorious deed!"
