It was almost noon, and the mysterious black-robed man still didn't come, but Li Wendao was not in a hurry, because this matter was not something that could be solved in a hurry.

Instead of doing useless work in a hurry, it is better to calm down his mentality, besides, the black-robed man just gave him a little hope, and no one knows if it can be solved.

Since this is the case, then it is better to live a normal day, and if Li asks what to do because of a note, then his state of mind is too bad.

However, the black-robed man did not release Li Wendao's pigeons, and when it was noon, Chen Wan'er took him to the small courtyard where Li Wendao was, and at the same time, Chen Wan'er also brought some ingredients and some wine and dishes that had been prepared. Looking at it like this, even if Li Wendao can't spare his hands to make some food in the end, he won't be without anything.

After sending it over, Chen Wan'er left very interestingly. Although she also wanted to stay here and see what Li Wendao and the mysterious black-robed man had to say, after all, looking at Li Wendao's expression before she knew that this matter seemed to be quite important.

But in the end, this is still a matter for Li to ask, so she naturally has no trouble asking. After all, sometimes, being too curious isn't necessarily a good thing.

After Chen Wan'er left, Li Wenwen greeted the black-robed man and asked him to sit on another stool next to the stone table. Then he was fiddling with the ingredients brought by Chen Wan'er on the side, and Su Xinyu gave him a hand on the side.

Looking at it like this, it doesn't seem that he has any intention of communicating with the black-robed man for the time being, and these ingredients in front of him are what Li Wendao cares about the most. Li Wendao didn't take the lead in speaking, and the black-robed man was not in a hurry, so he just sat on the side, watching Li Wendao and the two of them busy there.

This scene is quite calm, this is each doing what they want to do, and it is also a kind of competition of hearts. Without knowing the specific purpose of the black robe, Li Wendao naturally would not be the first to speak, because whoever spoke first at this time would have already lost in momentum.

Although Li Wendao was very concerned about the Heavenly Dao mark on his body, but the incident had already happened, so it was useless to worry too much. So unconsciously, Li Wenwen's thoughts about this thing faded a lot.

If it can be solved, it is best, if it can't be solved, then there is no need to force anything. Although the black-robed man seemed to have given him some hope, if he wanted to be controlled by others because of these hopes, then it would naturally be impossible.

As for the specific thoughts of the black-robed man, Li asked and didn't know, so it was better to have a mental competition first, whoever can't stand it first, then whoever will naturally be much more passive.

Although Li Wendao is not deeply involved in the world, his mind is no worse than those old foxes. In addition, Li Wenwen's interest in food is far greater than his interest in other things, so with Chen Wan'er sending so many ingredients, Li Wenwen's mind naturally has a place to consume.

And Su Xinyu on the side, although he was quite anxious, but seeing that Li Wendao hadn't said anything yet, it was naturally not easy to talk much. Because she knew that this kind of thing still needed to be handled by Li Wenwen.

Although she can make decisions or plan for some things that Li asks, she knows that she can't fully represent Li Wendao. She is a wise woman who knows what to do and what doesn't seem to be done.

When it is time for Li to ask for the master, then it is natural for Li to ask for the master. As for her, as long as she stays behind Li Wenwen safely. As for some trivial things that Li Wendao didn't want to care about, or troublesome things, then she would just deal with them. This is how she positions herself, and it is also the correct positioning.

It was also the first time she went down the mountain, and she was also not deeply involved in the world, but she thought about it a little more than Li Wenwen. It's not that she's scheming, she's just smart enough to know what to do.

Now that Li Wendao didn't say anything, then she naturally didn't need to say anything, just quietly accompany Li Wendao. Moreover, even if you are in a hurry, as long as you put your mind on Li Wendao, then you will naturally relax a lot.

So the two of them just started to deal with the ingredients, and they seemed to have completely forgotten that there was a black-robed person on the side who didn't know the specific cultivation.

Li Wenwen was quite satisfied with the ingredients brought by Chen Wan'er, although many of them were not expensive, but they were all very fresh. There are also some things that Li Wendao has never seen, but Chen Wan'er very thoughtfully wrote down the names and characteristics of these ingredients on a note and put them next to the ingredients.

Once you're done, it's time to cook......

On the other side, in the Tianfang City City Lord's Mansion, Shangguan Yunlong's grandfather and grandson were sitting with the eldest grandson Nianyuan and Zhao Yuankui, and the eldest grandson Nianyuan's face was a little ugly at this time.

After a while, the eldest grandson Nianyuan handed a letter in his hand to Shangguan Yunlong, and at the same time said,

"Grandpa Shangguan, what do you say about this? How could my grandfather and grandfather make such a decision?"

Shangguan Yunlong took the letter handed over by the eldest grandson Nianyuan, glanced at it cursoryly, and then said to the eldest grandson Nianyuan.

"Little one, what else should I do, and you invited me from outside because of this?"

Here's the thing, Shangguan Yue'er originally planned to go to Li today to ask them about them, but she met Chen Wan'er early in the morning. Chen Wan'er told her that there was something to deal with there today when Li asked there, and it was best not to go over and disturb.

Although Shangguan Yue'er was very curious about what Li asked what was going on, since Chen Wan'er had said so, then she naturally didn't want to go over and bother.

In addition, Shangguan Yunlong's body is just right, and he didn't accompany his grandfather well, so he took Shangguan Yunlong out for a walk today. Who knew that not long after he came out, he saw the eldest grandson Nianyuan coming over in a hurry.

It turned out that the eldest grandson Nianyuan was planning to find his grandfather and grandson, so he happened to meet him. Because the place they encountered was closer to the City Lord's Mansion, then they did not return to the Immortal Spirit Pavilion, but came to the City Lord's Mansion.

Then the eldest grandson Nianyuan told Shangguan Yunlong what had happened and the letters from Changling City.

Eldest Sun Nianyuan looked at Shangguan Yunlong with a look of indifference, and couldn't help but say a little anxiously.

"Grandpa Shangguan, isn't this a matter? So what is a matter? Does it have to be a matter if Nianyuan encounters a catastrophe of life and death one day?"

Looking at the appearance of the eldest grandson Nianyuan, Shangguan Yunlong couldn't help laughing.

"Hehe, little guy, this is a good thing, why are you so sad? To be honest, it's time for you to talk about marriage, your grandfather and they just found you a family business, why are you so bitter and hateful?"

"Grandpa Shangguan, you said it easily, but I haven't even seen that young lady, why should I live with such a person for the rest of my life?"

"Hehe, little guy, it's nothing more than a marriage, even if you don't like it, it's a big deal to marry someone you like in the future, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. ”

Shangguan Yunlong was right, and the eldest grandson Nianyuan naturally knew it. After all, in this world, the strong are respected, and some people are not only three wives and four concubines, it is not an exaggeration to say that they have thirty wives and forty concubines. Not to mention those strong people who stand at the top, even those worldly magnates, I am afraid that there are many beautiful wives and beautiful women in the family.

But knowing that he knows, he has no objection to the eldest grandson Nianyuan, who has three wives and four concubines, but he still can't accept marrying a woman he has never seen. If you get married, that's a responsibility.

Although it is said that it is a big deal in this world to finally reconcile and leave, after that, one parting and two forgiveness, when you meet a loved one, you will be fine. But that's just an ordinary person, but he is a royal family, if he is reconciled, not only will the royal family lose face, but that woman is also destined to have no way to live.

So in other words, if you marry, then whether you like it or not, you can only face her in the end of your life, which makes the eldest grandson Nianyuan accept. Therefore, he still said to Shangguan Yunlong.

"But Grandpa Shangguan, I still feel a little unacceptable. Also, why did my grandfather and grandfather have to arrange this family affair for me? They didn't even ask me, they didn't even consider my feelings. ”

Looking at the appearance of the eldest grandson Nianyuan, Shangguan Yunlong couldn't help but say helplessly,

"Why, it's not for you! Even if your grandfather likes you very much, aren't your other two brothers his grandsons? So even if he wants you to take over that position, he still can't make it too obvious, and if he directly interferes with your father's decision, then the country of Min will be in turmoil.

So he can only help you find some chips as much as possible, this is the helplessness of the heavenly family, although he controls the country, but there are too many things that cannot be done. Even as a father, he can't educate his son directly.

Your grandfather wants to help you, and your grandfather wants to help you, but they can't intervene directly, so they have to rely on others. This family affair is their means, and through marriage, you can have a useful force to help you fight against your two older brothers.

With this, even if you can't make it to that position in the end, at least you can save your life. You must know that some things are unavoidable, especially when you are in a high position, then you will naturally have to face more and lose more at the same time. ”

Listening to Shangguan Yunlong's words, the eldest grandson Nianyuan was speechless for a long time. Indeed, according to what Shangguan Yunlong said, his grandfather and grandfather arranged this family business for him in order to let him have some chips that he could use.

If you don't have this bargaining chip, then with what you can use now, then you naturally can't compete with your two brothers. And this is a family matter, Shangguan Yunlong can't interfere, his grandfather is not easy to help, and his grandfather is a relative. So I can only seek other powers.

At this time, marriage is a very good path, and it is also a fairly stable way to insure yourself. Because of the marriage of two people, so that the two forces can be linked.

This kind of thing is very common, and it has never been uncommon since ancient times, from the harmony of two countries to the alliance of two families. Marriage has always been a good idea.

It's just that sacrificing the happiness of two young people can be exchanged for a stable cooperation or long-term benefits, which seems to be a good deal.

If it is the child of an ordinary family, it may be possible to gain true love, but when it comes to them, the children of the family, or the children of the royal family, love is just a legend.

That thing is really out of reach, for the sake of the family, or for personal interests, they have to give up that kind of thing called happiness. Because of marriage, I don't know how many pairs of infatuated men and women in this world were finally forced to separate, let alone how many marriage tragedies have been caused.

But there is no way to do this, in the end, it is still not strong enough, and in the end they have to succumb to reality, which is their fate. Because they are from a better background than ordinary people, they don't know how much, and they don't know how much more they have to enjoy than them.

When they enjoy these things, they have to pay for their happiness, and in the end they can only marry one, or marry someone they have never seen, let alone like, this is the fate of the children of the family, the inevitable fate.

The only difference is that which of the two parties is more powerful, if the man is strong, then naturally he can have three wives and four concubines. If the woman is strong, then this man can only live his life, only this one wife, and he must be offered as an ancestor.

As for feelings? It is said that they can be in love for a long time after being together for a long time, and maybe they will respect each other like ice for a lifetime.

And Shangguan Yunlong's last words were directly pierced in the heart of the eldest grandson Nianyuan, since ancient times, the children of the royal family have fought for that position. Fratricidal cannibalism is common, and even cannibalism between fathers and sons is quite normal. In the royal family, family affection is a luxury, who makes that position too tempting? tempting enough to make a person completely abandon human nature, so tempting that for that position, you have to start intriguing from an early age.

The concubines of the harem are intrigued, and the princes are vying for power and profit, which is really boring.

And since he was born in the royal family, it was destined to be unavoidable for this, even if the eldest grandson Nianyuan told his two elder brothers that he didn't want to fight for that position at all, it would be useless.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? Not to mention that you haven't sat in that position, even if you really sit down, then you can be regarded as a wise man if you don't harm your brother. Because, who is sure that he will not be opposed?

Now you say that you don't want to fight, why should I believe you? Who knows if you will stab me when I let my guard down? So the eldest grandson Nianyuan also has to fight, and since he wants to fight, then he has to accept this family business. A moment later, he said to Shangguan Yunlong,

"Okay, Grandpa Shangguan, I see. There was an indescribable melancholy and tiredness in this voice......
