Since Li Shimin ascended the throne, he has rewarded his meritorious heroes. It should have been, and it wasn't a bad thing. But it has also gradually made the court blow a wind of competition for favor, especially in the past two years, and people competing for favor abound.

Li Zhenghang and Gao Junming are meritorious heroes, and the limelight naturally overshadows others. "The gun shoots the first bird." This person who is good at guns, the most likely to cause trouble, and does not stop, is Zuo Linghong, who intends to make a fuss about Li Zhenghang's pursuit of Prince Yin. dug out the matter of Li Zhenghang's sister-in-law Wang Nianzhi, who was Li Jiancheng's child's nurse, and slandered the emperor in private.

He told the emperor that the emperor killed Li Jiancheng's child back then, and the infant baby was not spared, and Wang Nianzhi was also killed in order to protect the baby. Li Zhenghang hated the emperor to the core, how could he serve the emperor loyally?

From the idea of seizing the throne to ascending the throne, Li Shimin knew everything Li Zhenghang had paid for himself, so he came to talk to him. He wanted to know what Li Zhenghang thought about this matter, but he just wanted to hear what he had to say.

After seeing the emperor, Li Zhenghang knew that someone had slandered the emperor, and he also knew who this person was. But in front of the emperor, he did not mention who it was, lest the emperor think that he was intriguing with his colleagues.

He knelt in front of Li Shimin and replied extremely calmly: "Even saints like Duke Zhou, Confucius, and Mencius have been framed, not to mention mere ones. Maybe someone made a speech to the emperor, but Weichen is not afraid of shadows. Wang Nianzhi is indeed the sister of Neiko, and she did serve in the Prince's Mansion, but she died of a sudden illness five years before the emperor ascended the throne. The cause of her death has nothing to do with you, the emperor, so how can it have anything to do with the battle for the throne? It can be seen that the person who exposed this matter only knows one and does not know the other, and Weichen's words are true, and I hope that the emperor will know about it. ”

Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said, "I believe in you. He smiled slightly, "Get up, I still have two strikes." ”

This time, Zuo Linghong's slanderous remarks not only did not shake Li Zhenghang in the slightest, but also improved Li Zhenghang's image in the emperor's mind. He believes that Li Zhenghang is broad-minded and can tolerate filthy words, and he is worthy of being a person he values.

Li Shimin thinks that Zuo Linghong is just a villain's trick, and his image in the emperor's heart is greatly reduced, and Zuo Linghong is still trapped in his narrow world and can't extricate himself, and he is often depressed because he can't move Li Zhenghang.

Zuo Linghong's slander to the emperor, Gao Junming has long been clear. As Li Zhenghang's world friend, Wang Nianzhi's affairs are also clear to him. But he did not stop it, nor did he explain, let alone defend Li Zhenghang in front of the emperor.

He decided that Zuo Linghong's move was meaningless, and he just connived at Li Zhenghang to have a real enemy. He knew better that as long as the emperor did not have the idea of punishing the minister, anyone's slander had no effect, it was just slander.

Li Zhenghang is safe, but Li Jiancheng's child's nurse has reminded Li Zhenghang that there is still an unknown secret about her. At that time, Wang Nianzhi had a constant relationship with the young child he was nursing, and when he was finally critically ill, he was unable to take care of it, so he handed over the baby to his most trusted sister Wang Yunzhi to raise, and this child was Li Wanying.

In the three or two years after Wang Nianzhi's death, Li Jiancheng gradually had no time to ask about the lord of Yingjun, only occasionally asked and cared, and he was quite well raised in the Li family, and he was much more relieved. The child was thus saved.

If someone else digs deeper, they will pull out this secret. The Li family has always kept this secret and never told anyone, especially after Li Jiancheng lost power, so as not to cause disaster. Now someone has dug up the matter of the nurse, and if you take another step forward, the consequences will be unimaginable. Li Wanying is the child of Prince Yin, if the emperor knows about this, the Li family may go to a catastrophe.

The children of Prince Yin should not continue to stay in the house. Li Zhenghang thought about marrying off this daughter earlier, anyway, Wanying had already reached the marriageable age. Of course, you can't marry into another official family and harm others. The farther away from the officialdom the better, and I hope that the lord of Yingjun will stay away from strife from now on.

He was not satisfied with Duan Ruiyi, and after nearly two years of observation, he first had doubts about his character; secondly, his clan has no power and power, and Wanying's background is complicated, if something happens to him on any day, he doesn't even have the ability to shelter her; Again, when he betrayed Prince Yin, Li Zhenghang felt more or less sorry for him, and he should take care of his daughter, and his daughter's marriage was inevitable, at least so that he would have no worries about food and clothing in his future life.

Think about it in many ways, who to marry, and think carefully.

The wind was released, and many dignitaries and nobles came to the mansion to propose marriage, not only because of Wanying's qualifications, but also because everyone wanted to marry the Li family. For many, this is an opportunity to climb the dragon and join the phoenix.

"Miss, the news has recently been revealed, and the master is arranging a blind date for you." Li Wanying's personal maid learned the news and told her as soon as possible.

Li Wanying was shocked: "Where is my father?" In the study? ”

"The master is in the book—" Before the maid's words were finished, Li Wanying rushed to Li Zhenghang's study.

She rushed in in a hurry, Li Zhenghang was very dissatisfied with Li Wanying's move, and his brows furrowed.

"Father, you don't have to bother arranging a blind date for me, I want to marry Duan Ruiyi, he has always been very good to me."

"Shameless!" Li Zhenghang was instantly angry, and after a while, he slowed down a little and said, "Duan Ruiyi's personality is not enough to entrust him for life." ”

"But father, he is good to me, I like him, I should marry such a person and stay with him for life."

The more Li Zhenghang listened to Li Wanying, the more angry he became: "The girl's family, the daughter of a wealthy family, can easily say such a thing as staying for life!" ”

Li Wanying had no choice but to kneel down, hoping that her father would be soft-hearted.

After a long time, Li Zhenghang still said categorically: "I won't agree to anything you say!" Come! Invite the eldest lady out of my study, and don't let her go out of the house for half a step! ”

Wanying's freedom was restricted, and Duan Ruiyi soon learned that she couldn't get out of the house. The reason for this was that he was unwilling to marry someone else, and finally had the courage to propose marriage to the Li Mansion, but he was also turned away.

A marriage was blocked from the high-ranking family in this way.

Choosing and choosing, Li Zhenghang chose Zhu Yingjie, who has a good family background, his father and ancestors make a living in business, and when the business is good, there is even overseas trade, and many tributes in the palace are offered by his family. The Zhu family is not only well-off, but most importantly, the past three generations have little to do with officialdom. This is the best place for the children of Prince Hide.

Wang Yunzhi was also very satisfied with this Zhu Yingjie, and praised Li Zhenghang: "It's still your master, your vision is good." ”

Li Zhenghang said: "I don't like that Ruiyi in my opinion, and choosing such a family for Wanying can be regarded as worthy of Prince Yin." Our Li family's feud with him is finally over. ”

Li Zhenghang is in charge of this kind of thing, and it is not Wang Yunzhi's responsibility to ask, she turned the topic elsewhere: "This Wanying is going to get married, and Wanning is left alone." ”

Hearing what his wife said, Li Zhenghang was also worried about Wanning: "Don't look at Wanning and Wanying growing up in the same yard, the temperaments of these two girls are really different." can even play together, one is going to leave at this time, I really hope Wanning doesn't make a fuss. But now that you're married, you can come back to see it from time to time. ”

"Yes, these two girls have rarely fought since they were children, and their relationship is as good as honey. And Wanning didn't know that Wanying was not her own sister, and she always thought that Wanying was our child. Master, you said, does Wanning care about Wanying's sister? ”

"We are kind and affectionate, the sisters have grown up together since childhood, and they have a deep relationship, even if they are not their own sisters, she will be regarded as their own sisters. Wan Ning's brother is more auspicious and has no brothers and sisters, I hope this truth will not affect the relationship between the sisters,"
