Chapter 115: Wu Chenghei is here to ask for marriage!
"Asking for a kiss? Ridiculous! Just rely on the villain of Wu Chenghe? ”
Although he had expected it before, when Helan Minyue said it, Li Hong still couldn't suppress a nameless fire and almost dropped the teacup in his hand.
Even Helan Minyue's small movements didn't notice.
"Your Highness ...... angry"
Helan Minyue was stunned, she didn't expect Li Hong to have such a big reaction, and for a while, she didn't know what to feel in her heart, and her voice became lower.
The lobby was so quiet, but there was an ambiguous atmosphere quietly spreading.
After a while, Li Hong calmed down, and when he realized that he was so out of shape, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, touched his nose and said.
"Well, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that!"
As soon as the words came out, Li Hong regretted it, the more he explained, the more chaotic it became!
Sure enough, the next moment, Helan Minyue raised her eyebrows and said angrily.
"What does Your Highness mean? Is it a concubine who should marry that Wu Chenghe? ”
"Of course not! I mean...... Now everyone inside and outside Chang'an City knows you and me...... That relationship, these two guys are now coming to the door to make trouble, they are obviously losing my face, I should not have let them go so easily! What's more, with those rumors in Chang'an City now, Lone can't let you marry him! ”
Li Hong was sweating profusely.
It was not easy to get this matter back, but in the end, Li Hong's tone became solemn, obviously not joking!
"This is what His Highness said, Your Highness might as well take a look at this!"
Helan Minyue instantly became smiling, took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Li Hong.
Oops, I didn't expect to take precautions, but I still fell into the pit!
Looking at Helan Minyue's little fox-like smile, Li Hong knew that he had been cheated again, so he took the letter dejectedly and looked at it carefully.
On the envelope, there is a beautiful hand, but the pen is strong, and it is obvious that the person who wrote it is old.
It is written in a dignified manner, "Grandson Helan Minyue personally opened"!
At this time, grandchildren and granddaughters are all called grandsons, so as soon as he looks at the title on this letter, Li Hong knows that it must be his maternal grandmother, Mrs. Rongguo, the mother of Empress Wu.
What is Mrs. Rongguo writing to do at this time?
Li Hong was puzzled in his heart, but his hand was not slow, and he hurriedly opened the envelope and looked at it.
The content of the letter is not long, but it makes Li Hong angry!
Mrs. Rongguo's letter only said two things, in addition to expressing her grief over the killing of Helan Minzhi, that is, she mentioned that she met the two Wu brothers on the way back, and the old man admired Wu Chengsi very much in his heart, and bluntly said that he planned to marry Helan Minyue to Wu Chenghe.
"After my brother left, the situation of the Helan family was stormy, and my grandmother obviously saw this, so she planned to find another help for the Helan family!"
Helan Minyue saw that Li Hong's face had become a little ugly, and said softly.
"Hmph, he's just a commoner, even if he's the queen mother's nephew, what power does he have to protect the Helan family?"
Li Hong snorted coldly and said.
"Wu Chenghei is alone, so naturally he doesn't have this power, but if he changes Zhou Guogong, the situation will be very different......
Helan Minyue said faintly.
"Zhou Guogong?"
Li Hong frowned and asked.
After thinking about it for a while, he understood what Helan Minyue meant.
Indeed, at present, Helan Minyue is alone, and she is the only one in the entire Helan family, Li Hong also knows that these days, there are many old opponents of the Helan family who are trying to make a move against the Helan family, but first, Helan Minyue did not ask him for help, and secondly, he is still making a small fuss, and Helan Minyue can still deal with it, so Li Hong did not intervene.
But this is all because of Helan Min's death, if Helan Minyue really marries Wu Chenghei, the deterrent effect will also be very huge.
In any case, Wu Chenghei is the nephew of the Empress Wu, and this is not a relative like Helan Minyue who is not treated by the Empress Wu, and now the Empress Wu obviously wants to use Wu Chenghei to stabilize the power of her relatives, that is, a noble status like Li Hong dares to beat him in front of him like this.
The other forces in Chang'an City must be a little more fearful.
And no matter what, Helan Minyue is the eldest lady of the Helan family, how can she marry a commoner who has no official position, and the Empress Wu can't afford to lose this person.
Now it happens that Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi are competing for the position of Duke of Zhou, if Wu Chengsi and Helan Minyue have decided to have a family affair, then the person who inherits the title of Duke of Zhou must be Wu Chenghei.
When the time comes, he will have the title of Zhou Guogong, and there will be no force to dare to provoke him.
The best of both worlds!
This kid has a good calculation! But it's a pity that Wu Sansi is that kid, I'm afraid he was sold and I don't know it!
Li Hong figured out this section and sneered in his heart.
"Otherwise, His Highness thinks that as soon as he returned to Chang'an, he hurriedly came to Helan Mansion to make trouble, just because he was provoked by others?"
Helan Minyue smiled skillfully and said softly.
Why is this Nizi in such a good mood?
Li Hong felt strange in his heart, but he continued to speak.
"If this is the case, this Wu Chengsi is a character, he can adapt to the situation when he sees that it can't be done, and he makes a decision immediately, without dragging his feet at all, although things have changed, but about this time, Zhou Guogong's position is almost his."
"Then what is Your Highness going to do?"
Helan Minyue blinked her eyes wide and asked.
What to do?
Li Hong pondered for a moment and said slowly.
"Wu Chenghei, although he needs to pay attention, but I think that he has just returned to Chang'an, even if he inherits the position of Zhou Guogong, he will not be able to make any waves for a while, so let him go for the time being!"
He is telling the truth, now he not only has to go to the political hall to deal with a lot of court affairs with several prime ministers, but also is secretly planning how to bring down Li Yifu, and he has to take the time to be optimistic about the training of the six rates of the East Palace, and there will be a tough battle in the big court meeting in a few days, but he has no heart to take care of Wu Chenghe.
What's more, at the moment, Wu Chengsi is only in contact with Liu Renliang, and it is unknown which side he will stand on in the future, so it is better to leave this matter for the time being.
"So does His Highness want to let Wu Chenghei get the position of the Duke of Zhou?"
Helan Minyue frowned slightly and asked.
"What? Is there anything wrong? ”
Seeing that Helan Minyue's expression was different, Li Hong asked strangely.
"Your Highness, haven't you forgotten, what did he do when he came to Helan Mansion today?"
Helan Minyue sneered.
"Asking for a kiss? Could it be that after today's events, Wu Chengsi still dares to come over? ”
Li Hong looked incredulous.
Of course, he didn't forget that Wu Chenghei came to ask Helan Minyue for marriage today, but since he asked for marriage in order to seize the title of Duke of Zhou, although the means he used have changed, the title of Duke of Zhou should be in hand, and there is no reason to continue to entangle here.
What's more, after seeing Wu Chenghe's groveling attitude today, Li Hong found it hard to believe that he still had the courage to dare to come and ask for trouble......
"Why don't you dare?"
The girl on the other side asked rhetorically.
ps: Brother Hong is obviously not IQ enough, and I don't know if I fell into the pit......
