Li Lingyou promised to make decisions for Zhan Youjing, He Qiong seemed to have taken a dose of reassurance, and she didn't worry about her daughter's marriage anymore, but was only curious about what Li Lingyou planned to do.

"You go back and coax Jing'er first, tell her not to be afraid, and wait until I find out what the hell is going on in the Huayin Marquis Mansion, and then come and clean them up."

He Qiong obediently went back to coax her daughter.

Li Lingyu called Honeysuckle in and asked about the Huayin Marquis Mansion, after all, she had been away for all these years, Kyoto had long been a matter of people, and it seemed like the Huayin Marquis Mansion, which was so great to others, but she had never paid attention to it at all.

Since Honeysuckle was taken out of the forbidden palace by Li Lingyou, and was ordered to take on the family order of the princess's mansion, he has been diligent all day long, in order to deal with human contacts, he did not need Li Lingyu's orders, and he had already inquired about the high-ranking families in Kyoto, not to mention knowing who was secret, at least he knew all the personnel on the surface.

As soon as Li Lingyou asked, she guessed that it was for the marriage between the daughter of the Lang family and the little prince of the Huayin Marquis Mansion, and immediately picked and said:

"His Royal Highness and the third year of his family, the old Marquis of Huayin passed away, the prince of the heir, that is, the current Marquis of Huayin, he has six of his fifty this year, and there are four sons and two daughters under his knees, except for the second daughter is a concubine, the rest are the descendants of Mrs. Hou, about four or five years ago, when the first emperor was still in power, the Marquis of Huayin asked for the eldest son to be the son, and hired the daughter of the Mei Taifu family as his wife."

Li Lingyu narrowed his eyes, it was this Mei who ran to He Qiong and said that he wanted to withdraw from the marriage, and accused Jing'er of being disrespectful.

"Does this Mei have anything to do with Yongning?"

Li Lingyou didn't believe that the Huayin Marquis Mansion would not hesitate to make a feud with Zhan Yaofei, a military squire with a frank career, in order to curry favor with Yongning, the eldest princess who had no real power.

So what's the problem?

"Mrs. Huayin Hou Shizi has nothing to do with the eldest princess of Yongning. Yes...... She has some involvement with Lord Rong and the royal king. ”

Honeysuckle's expression was a little strange, and Li Lingyu's curiosity was aroused.

"Mei is only in her early twenties now, right?" How could she be involved with two men who were nearly ten years older than her? Or are they powerful ministers like Rong Qinghui and the royal king?

"The sister of Mrs. Hou Shizi of Huayin is the deceased wife of Lord Rong, and her sister became Lord Rong's concubine." Honeysuckle was a little sarcastic, obviously disdainful of the Mei sisters serving a husband.

"Heh," Li Lingyu chuckled, not so surprised.

She didn't have much impression of the Mei sisters, but she remembered that Mrs. Mei was a doctor in Taixue and taught her "Spring and Autumn" for a while, and he seemed to have a daughter, known as the first talented woman in Kyoto.

Presumably after her and relatives, Rong Qinghui married this talented woman, and after she died of illness, she accepted his wife and sister as a concubine and entered the mansion to take care of the children left by the first wife.

"What about the Mei clan and the king?" Li Lingyou asked.

"When the slave maid was in the palace, I heard some rumors, saying that the first emperor had intended to point out the wife of the prince to the royal king, but the royal king refused on the grounds of 'not breaking the Qiang country and not marrying a wife', and later she married into the Huayin Marquis Mansion in a fit of anger."

"Heh," Li Lingyu laughed again, feeling that things had become interesting.

A few days ago, Empress Dowager Rong mentioned that she wanted her to remarry Rong Qinghui, and yesterday Mei went to Zhan's house to make trouble, if she still couldn't detect the connection between these two things, she would have spent fourteen years in the court of King Qiang in vain.

"Your Highness, what happened?" Honeysuckle asked cautiously.

Li Lingyou didn't hide it anymore: "The Marquis of Huayin Mansion wants to divorce the Zhan family." ”

Honeysuckle looked surprised: "Why is this?" ”

Li Lingyou hooked a strand of hair, wrapped it around his fingertips, and said in a light tone: "This is full of Kyoto, there are a few people who don't know that Zhan Yaofei is friendly with the royal king, and a few people don't know, Qiongniang and I are sisters, and the Huayin Marquis Mansion dares to do this, there are only two possibilities...... Either for me or for the king. ”

Honeysuckle looked at Li Lingyou a little confused, and couldn't think of the key for a while.

Li Lingyou's eyes gradually sharpened: "If you go to the royal king, the Huayin Marquis Mansion must have been instructed by Rong Qinghui to use Jing'er's marriage as a threat, in order to force the royal king to give up the Xiqiang military power, if it is for me...... I really can't imagine who is behind it, and what is plotting against me. ”

It wouldn't be Rong Qinghui's noble concubine Xiaomei who heard the news, lest she marry Rong Qinghui, so she instigated the Hou Mansion to withdraw from the marriage.

"Wait and see, Qiongniang came to me today, and someone knows about it, so there should always be a next move."

***

Li Lingyou didn't guess wrong, but after waiting all night, the next afternoon, He Qiong came to the princess's mansion again, and brought Zhan Youjing with her.

He Qiong's face was even more ugly than yesterday, the corners of her mouth were blistering because of the fire, and when she saw Li Lingyou, she complained hatefully: "The Huayin Marquis Mansion is really too deceitful, and this morning Mrs. Shizi came to the door again, and actually said that she wanted Jing'er to kowtow to the birthday banquet of the eldest princess of Yongning and admit her mistake, so that the marriage between the two families would have room for maneuver, otherwise no matter whether my family agrees or not, the Hou Mansion will withdraw from the marriage." ”

Li Lingyou is sure that the Huayin Marquis Mansion is coming for her.

"Dare to ask Jing'er to kowtow and admit her mistakes, if you really think that this palace is a dead person!"

Li Lingyou was really angry, which startled He Qiong and Zhan Youjing, Zhan Youjing hurriedly knelt in front of Li Lingyu's couch, took her cold hand and said urgently:

"Your Highness, don't be angry with me, I am not uncommon to marry the little prince of the Hou Mansion, withdraw from the marriage, in short, I will never kowtow to the eldest princess of Yongning and admit my mistake!"

Zhan Youjing had red eyes and a stubborn face, why did she admit her mistake, the eldest princess of Yongning slandered His Royal Highness behind her back, completely ignoring the sacrifice made by Her Royal Highness for Da Liang, she was clearly a shameless villain, give her another chance, she dared to scold her to her face!

"If they want to say that I have no respect for my elders, let them say go, it's a big deal that I won't marry in the future, and I won't be forced to death because I lose my reputation!"

He Qiong was dumbfounded, she didn't expect her daughter to have such rebellious thoughts, and she didn't know whether to scold her or beat her for a while.

Li Lingyou showed a smiling face, touched Zhan Youjing's round and soft little face, and praised: "Good boy, you have backbone, this palace doesn't hurt you in vain." ”

He Qiong wanted to cry without tears: "Your Highness, don't listen to this dead girl's nonsense, if she really can't get married, my father and I will have to die of worry." ”

"What's the panic, I didn't say anything about her," Li Ling glanced at her, pulled Zhan Youjing up from the ground and sat in front of the couch, hugged her shoulder and patted her gently, her blood-colored pink lips were lightly hooked, revealing a chilling smile.

"On Yongning's birthday, I personally took Jing'er to congratulate her on her birthday, I want to see who dares to be presumptuous in front of me."

She had been away from Kyoto for so long that they thought she had become a toothless tiger, and that no one dared to brush her beard, and since they would not tell her to live happily, she would go out to fight with them.

Let's hope they don't regret it.
