Chapter 236: Drifting Away
"What's so difficult about this!" Li Shuning pushed open the door of the study and interrupted the excited An Guogong, "Since my aunt and Yifei can't see outsiders in the Taimiao Temple, I simply find two stand-ins to stay in the Taimiao, which not only retains the identity of my aunt and Yifei but also fulfills my aunt's wishes. Even if she doesn't want to come back, Dad picks a good family that satisfies her aunt and lets Yifei marry as a princess, and if you have a good aunt, your friendship with your niece will not kill two birds with one stone? Why make your brother and sister fall out of harmony and ask your aunt to treat you as an enemy?"
An Guogong looked Li Shuning up and down for a long time, pointed at her with a trembling finger and said tremblingly: "You...... It was Shuning?!!! "He's not dreaming!!
Li Shuning, who reluctantly changed into women's clothes for her aunt, looked at her father who looked like she had seen a ghost, smiled a little weakly, and secretly regretted that she was too impulsive, and when she heard her sister-in-law's people say that her father quarreled with her second brother for her aunt's business, she hurried to relieve the second brother, completely forgetting that she was a dead person in the eyes of her father!
"Dad......" Li Shuning stumbled and explained: "I didn't actually die, at that time...... It's a dead man...... It was the King of Qi who wanted to harm me, and I had no way to fake my death to escape. She didn't say that it was her brother and sister-in-law's plan, after all, they did it all for her, one person did the same thing, and she couldn't ask her brother and sister-in-law to complain about her father.
An Guogong stared at her dumbfounded for a long time, his mind was in chaos, what happened today was really beyond his ability to bear, first his sister wanted to take his niece to death, and for this matter, he turned over the old accounts from more than ten years ago, so long I haven't seen serious words and didn't say a word and quarrel! I originally expected my son to persuade my sister to give up this ridiculous plan, but the son who has always been steady is actually on his sister's side! The most outrageous thing is that he feels the most indebted and sorry for his daughter, who has been missing for almost two years, suddenly appeared in front of him and told him that he was not dead!
It took An Guogong half a day to digest this, and then he finally figured it out, pointed at Li Jiayi and asked, "Do you know this?!"
"No......" Li Shuning just wanted to open his mouth to defend his brother, but Li Jiayi already admitted it indifferently, "Yes, Sheng Xiao's fake death and departure from the Qi Mansion were arranged by me." ”
"You are so bold!" An Guogong opened his mouth to scold, but he shook his hand and "you" for a long time, but he didn't know where to start, what is the fate of King Qi now? If his daughter really follows him, if he is either buried in the imperial mausoleum or eats a vegetarian diet in Taimiao with her aunt, it is better to fake his death and escape and change his identity to start over. After figuring out the joints, An Guogong's face looked a lot better, and his hands didn't tremble, but he still accused Li Jiayi with a straight face that he shouldn't hide it from him.
"You can't blame the second brother for this!" Li Shuning stepped in front of Li Jiayi, and said heroically: "He is all here to save me, if my father wants to scold me, scold me!" She led the troops for some time, and even if she wore women's clothes, she couldn't hide the heroic spirit that was sharpened in the battlefield barracks.
An Guogong was in a trance for a moment, and always felt that this lost daughter was different from before, although as always, she did not look like a lady, but she did not take it for granted, as if she should be like this, let the flowers and Jiaoyan stand proudly like a bamboo.
In the past, all the words that seemed to be clichés were choked in his throat, and An Guogong looked at his fearless daughter and couldn't say a word no. A deep sense of powerlessness arose from the bottom of his heart, and he was firmly bound like a vine that grew thicker and thicker, and even his breathing was a little sluggish......
"That's it!" An Guogong glared at Li Shuning for a long time, and finally flicked his sleeves and turned his back and sighed weakly: "You have all grown up and have your own ideas, I can't control you." ”
There was silence behind him, Li Shuning didn't know how to open her mouth and only looked at Li Jiayi with her eyes, and Li Jiayi looked at An Guogong's back with a somewhat solemn expression for a long time before she spoke: "Father is serious, the son just hopes to relieve his father's worries so that you can enjoy peace in peace." ”
An Guogong's back stiffened, and then he suddenly turned around and stared at Li Jiayi, who looked calm as water, and squeezed out three words from between his teeth, "Good! Very good!!
Pushing Li Jiayi out of the study, Li Shuning endured it a few times and finally couldn't help but ask the words in her throat, "Second brother, are you forcing the palace to seize power?" Li Shuning has never liked to fight for me all day long, but this doesn't mean that she doesn't understand, she has never eaten pork, Pig Run has always seen it, although the conversation between Dad and the second brother was not explicitly said, but the meaning can be understood by everyone except for a three-year-old child.
"You name it. Li Jiayi was silent for a moment, and then admitted very simply.
Li Shuning couldn't hear the joy and anger in his voice, she thought that her second brother would definitely be uncomfortable at this time, not to mention that in fact, the authority of the Anguo Mansion has always been in the hands of the second brother over the years, and the father has long been hollowed out, and the rest is just a good face, and the second brother just pierced this layer of window paper. So she immediately comforted very sincerely: "Second brother, in fact, you did the right thing, if it were me, I would do the same, my father is sometimes too grinding, I really ask him to make decisions......" Li Shuning muttered in a low voice, "I'm afraid I've been reincarnated at this time." "The son doesn't say anything about the father, and Li Shuning can only complain secretly no matter how dissatisfied An Guogong is.
Li Jiayi didn't seem to want to talk anymore and didn't answer Li Shuning's words, so she only asked, "Is your sister-in-law back?"
Li Shuning shook her head, "I don't know, I heard from the maid next to my sister-in-law that she was riding a ......horse with Yifei," he said, looking at the already dark sky outside the corridor, "I guess I'll be back soon." ”
Li Jiayi hummed lightly and didn't speak again. He didn't ask why Li Shuning suddenly appeared in the study, nor did he ask who taught her what she said, Li Jiayi's heart was bright, Situ Ningbing had long known that his father and son would have this day, she had already made a promise to him, and now she needed him to show a cooperative attitude. Whether as a mutually beneficial ally or as a concerned couple, he has to make a choice!
Father......
Li Jiayi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, rather than having to use his iron and bloody wrists to make him see the facts clearly one day, why not save some face for him while the current situation is still under control, and also save some father-son affection......
