"Ahem-a-a-"

Choked on the buttermilk firmness, Su Xiaozhou coughed and panicked.

"Are you sick? Want to die?! ”

Since he knows that "Su Xiaozhou" and "Su Wanqing" are the same person, even if he is a fool, he should know that pretending to be by the side of the prince is a capital crime of bullying the king.

Obviously he should have avoided it, but he dared to propose marriage, this guy is either crazy or long-lived!

"I'm fine, of course I don't want to die. This thing...... It's not what I want, but in the list provided by the media of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, you seem to be a good choice. Li Yu said helplessly.

While speaking, Su Xiaozhou noticed that all the diners around him were gone for a while, and it seemed that many people had arranged for him. There is an additional layout for "face-to-face" with people, what is he trying to do?

"What do you mean? Why do you have to talk about marriage? ”

"You see, it's been more than two months since I returned to Beijing, and I still haven't landed yet, so I can only gamble, fight cocks, and drink flower wine every day...... Not even a serious errand. Li Yu said aggrievedly.

He spoke frankly, as if everything he had done recently had been forced.

Su Xiaozhou didn't bother to pay attention to him, and asked, "What does it have to do with not arranging an errand and you have to discuss marriage?" ”

"Two days ago, my uncle and grandfather came looking for me. He told me that as early as more than a month ago, an official media came to the door, saying that they were ordered to give me a kiss, but they refused to reveal what their 'intentions' were. I feel that this matter must have something to do with the will to requisition me back to Beijing. Is it Your Majesty? Or the Queen's Mother? What the hell am I going to do when I come back? Only by deciding on family affairs can there be a conclusion. Li Yu suddenly became serious.

Since returning to Beijing, he has been dried, and even though he is like a fish in water, he always feels that someone is observing him in the dark, which makes him gradually lose his breath.

"When you go back to Beijing, isn't it the way that the elders in the family have come up with? Are they going to ask for His Majesty or the Queen's Mother, can Lord Li Bi still be unclear? Su Xiaozhou tapped lightly on the table, and his suspicious gaze rolled on his face.

Since she knew that Li Yu was from the British government, she concluded that his return to Beijing was inseparable from the influence of his family. There are so many generals in the four major capitals, there are many people who want to return to the capital, if they don't make great contributions, or if they are old and sick, few can return to their homeland.

I asked, but my uncle denied it. As for the second uncle and several cousins...... They wish I had died in the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, so why would they bother to let me come back? A trace of strangeness crossed Li Yu's eyes, and it was fleeting, and there was no trace.

Su Xiaozhou nodded silently, "It makes sense to say that." However, there is no such thing as gratuitous kindness, and whoever asks you to come back will always have to take advantage of it. ”

Other people's family affairs, she doesn't know the inside story, so it's not easy to comment on them.

"Your Majesty or the Queen Mother, which one do you think is more likely to influence this matter?" Li Yu asked suddenly.

After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaozhou clasped his fists sideways and bowed to him: "The old prince has been loyal and patriotic all his life, and has made great achievements in war, and he is an old minister that His Majesty respects very much today. Enjoying the national surname, nicknamed "Zhenwu", and being buried in Zhaoling all show the royal family's trust in him. At first glance, it should be Your Majesty's intention to allow you to return to Beijing. ”

Hearing her say this, Li Yu smiled, "At first glance, it seems like this, so what do you think you can see if you look closely?" ”

"If you look closely, it depends on your relationship with the family. The British public is known for its loyalty, and has won the trust of His Majesty and the clan, and all of them have been entrusted with important tasks. Listen to what you mean, it seems to have a relationship with the grandfather of the new country. If you don't share their spirits, then to Your Majesty, you are not a sincere person. ”

The corners of Li Yu's mouth raised, "Yes, I guess that's the case." ”

"In that case...... It's the queen's mother. ”

Su Xiaozhou's eyes rolled, and he said slowly: "Now the government and government are all agents of the queen's mother." This kind of thing can be dispatched by the side general, and she can handle it with full authority. On closer inspection, she is more likely. But then what you have to do is unpredictable......"

Although the old prince supported His Majesty before he was abolished, the Li family stood with the clan after all, with the national surname. If Li Yu is a rebel, then his role can be imagined.

"Why don't you just guess—"

Li Yu dipped his fingertips in water, wrote a "one" on the table, drew a circle, and said: "Suppose it was the queen mother who transferred me back to the capital." Now that I've returned to the capital, it stands to reason that ...... What should she give me? Or, at least arrange an errand to observe, cultivate, and cultivate, so as not to let me be a gangster in the capital. ”

Hearing his words, Su Xiaozhou couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Judging from Xue Yi's daily report, Li Yu has been like a fish in water recently, getting up early every day, greedy for darkness, and the "performance" is scary, how can there be a trace of unwillingness?

He wanted to know that his mission to return to Beijing was to plan for himself earlier. This bastard only has himself in his heart, and it would be strange if he could be trusted.

"Maybe she wants to use you, but she doesn't trust you completely. Need you to make a nomination? She said tentatively.

"Yes—"

Li Yu was a little excited, the millet worm was far smarter than he imagined.

"What do you think is a 'vote for fame' is to marry a family affair that satisfies her?" Based on this inference, Su Xiaozhou felt a little unreasonable.

Whether a knife is fast or not, you will know when you try it, how can you ask the knife to prove it yourself? This kind of practice of hanging people in the market and letting him show his loyalty with marriage events is really not the queen's style.

"Since ancient times, if the relationship is not from the family, it is from the in-laws. If the queen doesn't trust me enough, then I need a family affair that reassures her of 100,000 people. Li Yu looked like he had seen through the world, as if he had made up his mind to give up for this.

Su Xiaozhou didn't comment, and spread his hands and said, "Then tell me, what kind of young ladies did the media of Jingzhao Yin Mansion find for you?" ”

"There are a total of eight young ladies to choose from, all of whom are nobles from good families, half of them are military generals, and half are after Wenchen. Wenchen's half, I have already rejected all of them. Li Yu replied 1510.

"What?!"

Su Xiaozhou thought that he had heard the opposite.

After the case of the eldest grandson Wuji, the power returned to the king. Between emperors and queens, between monarchs and ministers, it has become very delicate. The dispute between the court and the court has become a family affair of the emperor, and the open and secret struggle between the clan and the later party shows the mutual struggle between the civil and the minister.

If Li Yu wanted to show his loyalty, he should marry the daughter of a civil servant who was deeply trusted by the Empress Wu.

"My father is also a Wenchen." She said.

Li Yu shook his head, "The Su family is a Jinwuwei family, and there should always be some family learning." ”

"Why do you have to be after the general?" Su Xiaozhou asked again.

After a pause, Li Yu replied, "I don't want my wife to repeat my mother's mistakes." ”

Seeing that he didn't want to elaborate, Su Xiaozhou didn't want to ask.

Marrying into the Guogong Mansion as a young lady, isn't it a fight on the battlefield, and you can choose a family by competition?!

"What about the other three?"

Li Yu expected that she would have this question, and wrote a "two" on the table with his fingertips, and then said word by word: "You are the best choice among them." ”

At this moment, Su Xiaozhou was confused again.

Father, brother, uncle, and even close relatives of the Su family, none of the clan are cronies of the Empress Wu, where did his inference come from?
