Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Number of Lives

Over here? This is a flower hall for ordinary banquet guests, unobstructed, mixed ears and eyes, if he really let him say it thoroughly on the spot, I am afraid that the birthday of the Yongwang Mansion will really come to an end. Li Shouli subconsciously frowned, and then raised his hand respectfully: "The house is not well entertained, I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me." Please also ask Your Highness to move to the study, we can sit down and talk slowly. ”

"Father......" Li Chenghuan, who was the least calm, couldn't help but call in a low voice. They had just received a letter from Yao'er, asking them not to contact the prince, Empress Wei and others, but in the blink of an eye, they were about to introduce the former directly into the study, would this be too obvious? Although he didn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to say when he came to the door this time, he always had an ominous premonition, and this time, I was afraid that the Yongwang Mansion would inevitably cause some trouble.

"Father and eldest brother lead the prince over first, and the third brother and I will order someone to prepare some refreshments, and we will arrive later." As soon as he pulled Li Chenghuan's sleeve, Li Chengning took a step forward, but he smiled decently, and immediately covered his brother's whisper. He knew Li Chenghuan too well, and he wouldn't be surprised what kind of words this guy would say. If it was put on hold, it would have been forgotten, but now that Li Chongjun is still there, if this is said to leak out, it will really be an endless disaster.

"Hmm." Li Shouli, who was in a state of turmoil, naturally didn't care about such a trivial matter, and led Li Chongjun away with Li Chenghong one after the other. Li Chengning watched the figures of the three people disappear completely, and the smile on the corner of his mouth fell, and then he turned his head and glared at Li Chengyu fiercely: "When is this happening, can't you stop a little?" There are some things that can be said in front of His Royal Highness the Prince?! ”

"But you can't just let him go into the study to talk secretly, right?" Of course, Li Chenghuan also understood that there was something wrong, but he really didn't care so much at this time: "He came back with his eldest brother, I don't know how many people saw it, if he sat down for a while and left, it would be nothing." But this time when we enter the study, and if we delay for another hour, can we still leave our relationship with him behind?! Even if his father can not agree to him on any terms, but in the eyes of outsiders, Yongwangfu and the prince are together, how can we continue to walk in the future?! "He's always just been a little more playful, not to the point of being completely brainless. Li Chongjun can't guarantee that he doesn't have the same idea today, why do they still step on it even though they know it?

Sighing heavily, thinking that his younger brother had finally thought of some keys, Li Chengning's eyes flickered for a long time, and in the end, in addition to helplessness, the residual emotions were even slightly relieved: "What you said is reasonable, but Chengyu, have you ever thought that since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepped into the palace, in fact, we and him are not very able to avoid suspicion?" ”

He didn't know how many eyes the gods had staring at Li Chongjun's every move. But since this person has come to Yongwang's Mansion, the attention he should have will not be less. Right now, I'm afraid that there are already countless people who think that they have a lot to do with the prince, and they are planning how to deal with it. Therefore, instead of letting Li Chongjun's words be heard, it is better to bring him into the study to talk secretly. At least, in this way, the initiative in the negotiation is still in their hands, and if others want to deal with the Yongwang Mansion, they have to be afraid of three or two points first.

"In this way, you can't avoid it?" Li Chenghuan couldn't help but take a few steps back, and his handsome face revealed a sad color that was as real as substance: "What do these people want us to do?" There is nothing in Yongwang's Mansion, why do you still have to force us to this day? Obviously, she is young, for the sake of our family, she has ...... "their priceless treasure in the Yongwang Mansion, his only sister, for the so-called Jiangshan Sheji, put her whole life into it, why do those people just refuse to let them live?"

If you really want to talk about it, in fact, in the Yongwang Mansion, the one who has the closest relationship with Tao Yao and the closest one has always been regarded by everyone as Li Chenghuan, who is unlearned and unskilled. Back then, after the Shenlong coup, when Li Xian summoned Tao Yao to the Shendu with a will, he was the most uncomfortable and depressed. He hated himself for being incompetent, and even if he grew into a bloody teenager, he still couldn't protect his sister-in-law. But under the pressure of his parents and brothers, he couldn't do anything, and even Li Chengning's plan to secretly escape with Tao Yao was discovered by Li Chengning, and then he was detained in the house, so that he couldn't see Tao Yao off in the end. Fortunately, there was Huai Jin at that time, and with his sweetheart by her side, he could be somewhat relieved.

However, when her letter to her father for help was refused, he was furious and wanted to rush to Shendu to bring his sister back after a big fight with his father. But before he could make the trip, the news that Tao Yao and Gao Xianzhi broke up and then took over the holy decree came one after another, this time, he knew that even if he was open-minded, he would definitely not be able to change his sister's mind. Tao Yao has been a very assertive and principled person since she was a child, she never promises anything easily, but once she agrees, no matter what it is, she will be extremely determined to complete it. How heartbroken must his sister have made such a suffocating decision? People say that if you don't hit the south wall, you won't look back, but Tao Yao made it clear that she wanted to go all the way to the dark, and even if she hit the south wall, she would never look back. Because, none of her family members, her lovers, stood by her side, at that time, the sister he loved the most since childhood, stayed alone in the Imperial City of Shendufa, how helpless and desperate she must have been in the depths of her heart!

Li Chengyu didn't dare to think about it, and he always buried this regret and pain deep in his heart, and never showed anything in front of anyone. After all, he was cowardly and useless at that time, even if he really went to Shendu, he couldn't help Tao Yao, so why bother to act like a coy after she was sad and married? It's just that the emotions buried in his heart have not faded with time, but are like waves crashing on the shore, tormenting his heart day after day. To this day, Li Chongjun's arrival and those obvious intentions have completely stimulated him, making him desperate to shout out the voice that has been suppressed in his heart for a long time: "We just want a way to live, a way to live for our whole family!" Why can't even this little request satisfy us? ”

Li Chengning looked at his brother who was suddenly out of shape, stunned for a while, and it wasn't until a long time later that he slowly exhaled a breath and said in a low voice: "This is probably fate." ”
