Chapter 155: In the Middle

The red whisk girl is sandwiched between Li Xiu and Li Jing's father and son, and it is also very difficult, but Li Xiu is not her biological son, and it is very rare to be able to report to Li Xiu in advance several times, so Li Xiu is also very grateful to her for coming to remind her this time, and after talking to her for a long time, she was sent away, and Li Chengdao was also taken back to the palace by the guards ordered by Princess Pingyang, and for a while, only Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang were left by the stream in the valley.

"What should I do?" Princess Pingyang sat by the stream, and asked softly with her hands on her knees, Pei Ju had forced Li Jing to agree to the marriage of the two families, if he really insisted on marrying his daughter, I am afraid that no one could stop him.

"I will definitely not get married, it's a big deal that I announce that I will completely break away from the father-son relationship with Li Jing!" Li Xiu said categorically, although he and Li Jing fell out last time, neither party publicly announced the separation of father and son, which was also a mistake by Li Xiu, because from a secular point of view, Li Xiu is still Li Jing's son, so it is reasonable for him to help Li Xiu get engaged.

"No, no matter what General Li says, he is also your father, he can say that he doesn't recognize you as a son, but you can't say that you don't recognize him as a father, otherwise it will ruin your reputation, and you must not do this!" Princess Pingyang heard this, but resolutely objected.

"It's just a reputation, and if it's ruined, it's ruined, and I just don't have to be burdened by fame anymore!" Li Xiu didn't care, even if he had tried his best to avoid attracting attention during this time, what he did still accumulated a lot of reputation for him, which already made Li Xiu feel the burden of fame, so it was better to abandon it as soon as possible.

"It's not going to work, ...... in the future You need a greater reputation in the future, and you must not destroy your reputation! When Princess Pingyang said this, she suddenly became a little shy, and her face was also extremely red, looking particularly attractive.

Li Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and then he reacted, Princess Pingyang meant that after she and Chai Shao dissolved her marriage in the future, Li Xiu must have the corresponding status if she wants to marry her, and reputation is an indispensable factor in it, if you ruin your reputation now, don't want Li Yuan to agree to marry Princess Pingyang to him in the future.

Thinking about this, Li Xiu felt even more headache, because apart from dissolving the father-son relationship with Li Jing, he really couldn't think of any better way to stop Pei Ju from marrying his daughter to him.

Then Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang discussed for a long time, but in the end they still couldn't come up with any good way, seeing that it was getting late, Li Xiu proposed to go back and think about it, so he sent Princess Pingyang home first.

However, just when Princess Pingyang came to the courtyard to enter the gate, she suddenly turned around and whispered to Li Xiu with a firm gaze: "Li Xiu, no matter what the result is, even if you really marry the little lady of the Pei family, my heart is still with you!" ”

When Princess Pingyang first spoke, her eyes were also full of courage, but in the end, she was already ashamed, and immediately turned around and ran into the mansion after speaking, her pretty face was already amazingly hot, this was the first time she took the initiative to confess her heart to Li Xiu.

Watching Princess Pingyang run into the mansion like a shy deer, Li Xiu's heart also swelled with a little sweetness in love, but then he thought of the current predicament, and couldn't help sighing at the moment, thinking of the corresponding way in his mind, and slowly walked home.

That night, Li Xiu lay on the bed and was in a state of confusion, perhaps because he was in the game, so that he couldn't think of any good way at all, and finally kept his eyes open until dawn, when the east window began to whiten, Li Xiu still didn't have any sleepiness, and finally even gave up the morning exercise that he had insisted on, and didn't eat breakfast, until the sun was three poles, he slowly got up from the bed with two dark circles under his eyes.

"Master, the slave knows that you are upset, but you also have to pay attention to your body!" Seeing Li Xiu coming out of the bedroom, Yuechan immediately stepped forward to persuade with a worried face, she was also present yesterday, so she also knew that Li Xiu was upset about something.

"yes, I see." Li Xiu was still a little absent-minded, and then walked to the garden, moved the deck chair to the shade and lay down again, Yuechan brought him a bowl of porridge at this time, and Li Xiu also drank it without a sip.

But at this moment, I suddenly saw Liu Er hurriedly running to report: "Master, His Royal Highness King Qin has come down!" ”

"Why did Li Shimin come here again, did he get hit again?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be a little upset when he heard this, he still had a bunch of troubles that had not been solved, but he didn't have time to listen to Li Shimin pouring bitter water on him.

But then Li Xiu thought about it again, he had no way to solve the matter of Pei Ju insisting on marrying his daughter to him, but maybe Li Shimin would have a way. Thinking of this, Li Xiu also felt a shock in his spirit, and immediately picked up the porridge bowl and drank it dry, and then strode to the living room to see Li Shimin.

"Huh? Li Saijiu: What's the matter, didn't you sleep well yesterday? Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Li Xiu with black circles under his eyes, and then said very surprised, in his impression, Li Xiu has always been an idler who can enjoy life and understand, and it is rare to see him not sleeping well like now.

"Haha, I had insomnia last night, and my expression was a little haggard, but it made His Royal Highness King Qin smile." Li Xiu also knew that his face must not be good-looking, so he said at the moment, and did not immediately ask the other party for help, but wanted to find out Li Shimin's intention first.

Seeing that Li Xiu was reluctant to explain more, Li Shimin didn't want to ask again, so the two sat down and exchanged a few words, and then Li Shimin got to the point: "Li Xijiu, last time I saw my Chengdao nephew studying with you, I don't know how he learned?" ”

"Hehe, Chengdao is an extremely smart child, in fact, I can't teach him too much, at most I can only help him broaden his horizons." Li Xiu said with a light smile, he felt that there was something in Li Shimin's words, so he looked at the other party and asked him to finish his words.

Sure enough, I saw that Li Shimin hesitated for a moment at this time and finally spoke again: "Li Xianjiu, in fact, my eldest son Chengqian has also reached the age of going to school, but I have not been able to help him find a suitable prince, but since I saw Li Xianjiu, I have always felt that Li Xianjiu is very suitable to be Chengqian's prince, I don't know what you think?" ”

"Wang Fu?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Li Shimin's words, although Li Chengdao studied with him, he was not Li Chengdao's prince, after all, if you want to be a teacher of the county king, you must be a person with high morality and both talent and learning, so usually Li Chengdao only calls him "Mr.", but Li Shimin is good, and he directly let himself be Li Chengqian's prince, this requirement is a bit too heavy.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I am afraid that I can't bear the heavy responsibility of the prince, right?" Li Xiu quickly came to his senses and excused himself, if he became Li Chengqian's prince, it would be equivalent to clearly telling others that he was already Li Shimin's person, which was completely different from the nameless "gentleman" between him and Li Chengdao, so he absolutely could not agree.

Li Shimin seemed to have known that Li Xiu would resign, so he was not surprised at all, and said again at the moment: "Li Xianjiu is a great talent, being a little Wang Fu is actually a bit condescending, but since you are unwilling, then it is better to do this, I will let Cheng Qian and Cheng Dao come together to ask Li Xianjiu for advice?" ”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he looked at Li Xiu with a smile, which also made him understand at once, I'm afraid this is Li Shimin's true intention, no wonder his expression was so strange after he saw Li Chengdao come to study here last time, it is estimated that he already had this idea at that time, maybe this was done to win over Li Xiu, maybe he didn't have any other ideas at all, but he simply felt that since Li Xiu taught his eldest brother's son, he also had to teach his own son, otherwise he always felt a little inferior to his eldest brother.

Li Xiu had already rejected Li Shimin once just now, and there was an example of Li Chengdao first, if he rejected him again now, it would inevitably seem a little unkind, not to mention that Li Xiu had other things to ask for help to Li Shimin.

Thinking of this, Li Xiu suddenly smiled in his heart, and then made a distressed expression and said: "Since His Royal Highness King Qin can afford to be here, I also feel honored to be here, but I'm afraid I don't have time to teach children to learn things during this time." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Li Shimin couldn't help but ask when he heard this.

"Alas, this matter is my private matter, and I'm afraid that no one in this world can help me, so Your Highness should not ask." Li Xiu sighed deliberately again, he had already figured out Li Shimin's temper and knew that he was an extremely conceited person, so he used this kind of words to provoke him.

Sure enough, Li Shimin was still young after all, far inferior to the heavenly khan after him, so he asked again: "Li Saijiu, if there is anything annoying, although the ability of this king is not as good as that of his father, it is by no means comparable to others, maybe I can help you." ”

Li Xiu was waiting for Li Shimin's words, and at that moment, he sighed again: "Since His Royal Highness the King of Qin wants to hear it, then you are not welcome, in fact, His Royal Highness should also know about this matter, that is, Duke Pei wants to marry his daughter to his wife." ”

"Huh? Pei Ju hasn't given up yet? Li Shimin was also stunned when he heard this, when Pei Ju changed his mind and married his daughter to Li Xiu, Li Shimin also made a little effort behind his back, but when Li Xiu and Li Jing fell out, they had clearly told Pei Ju that he would not marry his daughter, if Li Xiu hadn't mentioned it today, Li Shimin would have forgotten about it.

"Alas, the key is that Duke Pei is unwilling to give up, he has forced the Li Mansion to agree to the marriage of the two families, but I am unwilling to marry his daughter, what do you say, Your Highness?" Li Xiu said helplessly, at this time he really hoped that Li Shimin could help him.

However, to Li Xiu's surprise, after listening to his words, Li Shimin suddenly pointed at Li Xiu and laughed: "Confused, confused, I didn't expect that the intelligent Li Saijiu would also be confused!" (To be continued.) )
