The structure of the Ten Thousand Immortal Pavilion is composed of the Seven Elders, and all affairs are basically decided by the Seven Elders, and the selection of the Seven Elders' is the suzerain of the Seven Great Sects.

Now the seven major factions are basically his Li Zhen's people, so Wanxian Pavilion is his private property.

The establishment of Wanxian Pavilion was very hurried and simple, but it did not hinder its development, and Li Zhen was very optimistic about its future, and it would inevitably become an important support for him to conquer the world in the future.

After the matter of Wanxian Pavilion was successfully completed, Li Zhen's first order was to send disciples to form a cultivation team of 500 people to Fengyang Pass to help the imperial court repel the invasion of the Liang army.

The factions naturally have no opinion, after all, they have all benefited, and in order to show their sincerity, the heads of the sects who arrived today decided to go to Fengyang Pass with Li Zhen tomorrow.

Li Zhen was naturally happy and decided to entertain everyone today, but just as he was preparing for the banquet, his father ordered him to enter the palace.

These days, Li Zhen has been avoiding his father, and his father has not embarrassed him, and the two sides have maintained a tacit understanding, but today he suddenly announced that he entered the palace, and it is impossible to say that there is something important to tell him.

"It's not a way to hide, you always have to see, you go and do your business, and your grandfather here will show you."

Grandpa said.

Zhou Qian, like Li Zhen, has complaints about Emperor Hua, even if Emperor Hua has been secretly investigating the case of witch Gu, and believes in his heart that Li Zhen and his mother will not do such a thing, but after all, people are dead.

"There's Grandpa Lao!"

Li Zhen and his grandfather were not polite, and immediately left for the palace.

The East Palace is on the east side of the palace, and it is one with the palace as a whole, so I quickly entered the palace and came to the outside of the Palace of Nourishing Heart.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The attendant at the entrance of the Heart Cultivation Hall saluted.

"Did my father call me to find out what was the matter?"

Li Zhen asked subconsciously.

The chamberlain groaned for a moment and said, "It seems to be about the marriage of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

When Li Zhen heard this, he was slightly stunned, then nodded and walked into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Now that he is the crown prince, the marriage cannot be sloppy, and the marriage should be completed as soon as possible, after all, for the royal family, inheritance is a very important thing.

When Li Zhen walked into the Palace of Heart Cultivation, he saw his father chatting with an old man.

The old man is in good shape, old and old, with white hair like snow, in good spirits, and Vantage chatting eloquently, the two laugh from time to time, and they are very harmonious.

Li Zhen knew this old man, he was the master of his father and the first assistant of the previous cabinet, Yan Song.

"Son-in-law, see father! I've seen Yan Ge Lao! ”

Li Zhen saluted very respectfully.

Emperor Hua took a deep look at Li Zhen, this was the first time that father and son had met since Li Zhen left the imperial capital.

Emperor Hua didn't sigh, nodded at Li Zhen with satisfaction, there was no strangeness at all, and smiled to let Li Zhen flatten his body, as for Yan Ge Lao, he got up and saluted Li Zhen, Li Zhen didn't dare to say anything.

Although Yan Ge Lao has now retreated to the second line, he is still a well-deserved civil official in Huaguo. The protégés and officials are all over the court, and it is no exaggeration to say that if he stomps his feet, the court of Huaguo will definitely have a big earthquake.

When Emperor Hua was able to win the throne, in addition to his own ability, Yan Ge Lao's role was very great.

Emperor Hua also gave Li Zhen a seat, and the three generations sat together, like three generations of grandchildren.

"Recently, I heard that you have a marriage contract with a disciple of the Moon Worship Palace?"

Emperor Hua asked Li Zhen.

Li Zhen took a deep look at his father, his father's complexion was much worse than a few days ago, and it seemed that his injuries had not improved much.

"That's right! At the Tianchen meeting before, Erchen and Meng Bingqi of the Moon Worship Palace were engaged. ”

Emperor Hua nodded and said, "That's fine, you can deepen the connection with the Tianchen Sect, with the help of the Tianchen Sect, you will be much easier in the future." ”

Emperor Hua saw through the true meaning of Li Zhen and Meng Bingqi's marriage contract at a glance, but this kind of thing is normal for the royal family.

"But such a woman can't be a princess, she can be given the title of a side concubine."

Vantage is reminding Li Zhen that there are some things that cannot be capricious.

Li Zhen did not refute, nodded in agreement.

"You are not young, you should marry a wife and have children, today I happened to meet with the teacher to catch up, and I learned that the little granddaughter of the teacher's family has reached the age of leaving the cabinet, so I cheekily opened my mouth to the teacher, and the teacher's little granddaughter promised you to be the princess."

This sentence Vantage did not use a consultative tone, but directly made a conclusion.

Li Zhen can be willful in some things, and some things can't.

Today, the country is still dominated by Vantage.

Li Zhen subconsciously glanced at Yan Ge Lao and understood his father's intentions.

Even if Li Zhen killed a group and helped a group, but the political resources were still too shallow, if he could marry Yan Ge Lao's little granddaughter as the crown princess, then he would have Yan Ge Lao as the backing, which would play a vital role in his early rule.

That's how Vantage came back then.

Li Zhen has no impression of Yan Gelao's little granddaughter, but he is not exclusive to political marriage, and he can help himself, so he can accept it happily.

"This is a blessing for the retainer!"

Li Zhen got up and thanked him and said, "Thank you father for the marriage." ”

Emperor Hua and Elder Yan Ge both nodded with satisfaction.

Before, they were a little worried that Li Zhen would refuse this marriage, but now it seems that Li Zhen is far more mature than they imagined, and at the same time deeper.

In the past, Li Zhen had means and scheming, but he still gave people a very sunny appearance, but now it is different, this difference can only be seen by Emperor Hua, Yan Ge Lao and grandfather Zhou Qian.

"In that case, then choose a good day and an auspicious day to get married as soon as possible."

Vantage laughed.

Yan Ge has nothing to do, but because Li Zhen wants to go to Fengyang Pass, he said: "Erchen plans to go to Fengyang Pass tomorrow, so it is better to wait until Erchen comes back triumphantly." ”

"It's good! Just wait for your triumphant return to get married. ”

Vantage agreed.

In the meantime, Li Zhen didn't want to stay for a long time, so he said goodbye and left, Emperor Hua and Yan Ge looked at Li Zhen's back, and they were quite emotional.

"Your Majesty! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has changed a lot in the past four years! ”

Yan Ge didn't talk much before.

"It's me who can't stop him! He was resentful in his heart, and he was understandable. ”

Emperor Hua shook his head and continued: "It's just that I really didn't expect that he would be able to get to this point for revenge. ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince's heart is much more ruthless than before, and this may be the growth brought about by hatred."

Yan Ge Lao sighed with emotion.

Emperor Hua knew that Yan Ge Lao was talking about Li Zhen's previous murder, Li Zhen did kill many people a few days ago, even if it had been many days, people in the imperial capital were still panicking.

·······································

The back garden of a mansion in the imperial capital.

A woman was shocked to learn that she suddenly had a marriage contract, and said categorically: "I won't marry!" I said I wouldn't marry anything! ”

Yan Ge's youngest granddaughter is called Yan Xuan, who is in the best years of the double ten years, she is as beautiful as a flower, not to mention, she is influenced by the family, she is rich in poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is proficient in everything, and she has been called a 'talented girl' since she was a child.

In the back garden of Yan's house, Yan Xuan was accompanying her mother to enjoy the flowers in the back garden today, but she didn't want her mother to tell her the news of her engagement, which shocked Yan Xuan and was very angry and resistant.

"Mother! Didn't you talk to Daddy? The daughter's future marriage is up to the daughter? Why are you asking me to marry the crown prince now? To be the crown princess? ”

Yan Xuan has someone she likes, and the two have long made a private decision for life, originally thinking that they would come to the door to propose marriage after the lover won the fame.

Yan's mother was kind-hearted, and after listening to her daughter's words, she sighed in her heart.

As the youngest child in the family, Yan Xuan can be said to be a collection of thousands of pets, but growing up in such a family, there is also helplessness.

"This is not your father's idea, but your grandfather's decision."

When Yan Xuan heard this, she couldn't get angry, and said openly: "I won't marry!" I won't marry even if I die! Why did Grandpa use my marriage as a political investment? Marry him! ”

As soon as the words fell, Yan's mother immediately changed color.

"Presumptuous!"

Yan's mother slapped Yan Xuan's face hard, and her cheeks were immediately red and swollen, which showed that Yan Xuan's words were very undeserved.

Yan Xuan also knew that she was in a hurry, and said the wrong thing, she covered her face and looked at her mother, and her tears couldn't help falling, like pearls.

Yan's mother saw it in her eyes and hurt in her heart.

"Your grandfather's decision has not changed, you can accept your fate."

Yan's mother didn't know how to comfort her daughter, so she let her stay alone in the back garden for a while, and before leaving, she said: "Break off with that scholar as soon as possible, if you let your grandfather know about the two of you, I'm afraid it's not good for that scholar." ”

When Yan Xuan heard this, she was shocked, and she watched her mother leave in fear.

After there was no one in the back garden, Yan Xuan cried helplessly and helplessly.

After she was tired, she suddenly remembered something, and her eyes lit up.

Since you can't change your family's mind, it's better to change the prince's mind, as long as the prince is unwilling to marry him, won't this marriage be solved?

She and Li Zhen have not met, but they have heard of his deeds before and know that Li Zhen is a humble and polite gentleman.

As the so-called gentleman is not strong, it is difficult.

Yan Xuan seemed to grasp a life-saving straw and secretly left the mansion and headed towards the East Palace.

Yan Xuan came to the East Palace just in time for Li Zhen to come back from the palace, as the son of an official eunuch, how could he not know the prince's chariot?

"The people's daughter asks to see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Yan Xuan stopped the car on the street, which was really bold and reckless.

"Where's the bold fanatic? Dare to stop the prince's chariot, and you can't find death?!"

Li Zhen's guards are all shadow guards under the ghost ancestor, these people are all people in the demon path, killing people like hemp, there is no good thing, seeing Yan Xuan blocking the way, they immediately have to clean up the other party.

"The people's daughter is Yan Xuan, the old granddaughter of Yan Pavilion, asking to see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Yan Xuan is not stupid, seeing that the guards are going to make a move, he hurriedly said his name, Li Zhen in the chariot heard the words, and said: "Take Miss Yan into the palace to talk."

Yan Xuan was overjoyed, and immediately followed the chariot into the East Palace.

Li Zhen got out of the car, glanced at Yan Xuan, and said with a smile: "What is the matter with Miss Yan looking for Prince Ben?" ”

Li Zhen invited very politely, thinking that Yan Xuan would talk to him in the living room, Yan Xuan first visited the prince, and then said: "The folk girl just wanted to say a few words to the prince, and I hope to talk to the two of us." ”

Li Zhen knew why the other party came from as soon as he saw this expression, and after waving off his subordinates, he half-leaned on the chariot and said, "Let me guess, you don't want to marry me, and you have no choice, so you want me to withdraw from the marriage?" ”

When Yan Xuan heard this, her face was overjoyed, and she nodded: "Yes!" It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not willing to marry a woman he doesn't understand and doesn't like, right? ”

Li Zhen looked at her happy appearance, and couldn't bear to hit her, but still said truthfully: "This prince has just moved into the East Palace, presumably you have heard about what happened to me a few years ago, and now I am weak in the court and need the influence of the Yan family, so I agree to this marriage." ”

"Even if you're marrying a woman you don't like, or even meet before?"

Li Zhen waved his hand indifferently and said, "You are also a child of an official eunuch's family, is there not much such thing as a political marriage?" As far as I know, your Yan family's political marriage is easy to come by, why did you come to you to change sex? ”

As soon as Yan Xuan heard this, she had already determined that it was impossible to make a breakthrough from Li Zhen, and she couldn't help despairing.

"I already have someone I like, so you don't care?"

This statement is a bit broken.

Li Zhen raised his eyebrows.

"I want your family, not you, you're just a bridge. So it doesn't matter to me who you like, but if you want to become the crown princess in the future, I hope you can honestly accept the arrangement of fate and not cause trouble to me or your family? ”

"As you know, I've killed a lot of people these days, and I'm pretty good at killing people. Although the Yan family has a huge influence in the court, I have become hostile to the Yan family because of you, which is obviously very dangerous for your family. ”

Li Zhen's words are not a joke, his future crown princess or queen must do her duty.

"The arrangement of fate? So have you accepted fate again? If he accepted it, why did he come back four years after leaving the imperial capital, and overthrow the crown prince and the queen, and become the new crown prince! ”

Yan Xuan was not frightened by Li Zhen's words at this moment, but looked at him and asked a little aggressively.

Li Zhen looked at each other and was stunned for a while.

After a while, Li Zhen came back to his senses, nodded, and said: "What you said also has some truth, but if you want not to accept the arrangement of fate, you have to have the strength to do it, but unfortunately you don't, and I came back because I have." ”

Throwing down this sentence, Li Zhen turned around and left, losing interest in continuing to talk to Yan Xuan.

Yan Xuan is also a cultivator, but unfortunately it is not at the level of qi refining, and in Li Zhen's eyes, this realm of qi refining has to be forced up by the Yan family with pills.

Li Zhen's words made Yan Xuan reminisce for a long time, and finally realized that she could only accept the arrangement of fate.

······································

The next day, Li Zhen took the Ghost Ancestor and more than a dozen elites of the Shadow Guard, as well as nearly thirty heads of various factions, to Fengyang Pass.

Li Zhen's trip to Fengyang Pass this time was not just as simple as repelling the Liang army.
