The surprise Li Chengfeng prepared for Li Lizhi made the entire princess mansion lively again.

The dignitaries who came to congratulate Li Lizhi on her birthday chatted with each other.

However, Li Chengfeng and Li Lizhi did not participate in the ensuing meeting, and came to the living room behind the princess mansion for the ensuing family banquet.

"Father, this cloud cake is particularly delicious, please try it quickly!"

Li Lizhi, whose face was full of cream, handed it to Li Shimin, who was not very happy next to her.

Li Shimin, who had been upstaged by Li Chengfeng, took the cake and tasted it unhappily.

"Changle, you are not young now, but who do you like?"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Lizhi, who was wearing gorgeous clothes in front of him.

Empress Changsun and he had already made an engagement at this age, and Li Lizhi was almost old enough to get married.

But now that the Tang Dynasty is so prosperous, there is no need for his daughter to get married.

Li Chengfeng was willing to give Li Lizhi freedom and let her choose her husband completely according to her own wishes.

"Father... Changle is still young now!"

"I still want to try my luck in the world of martial arts, but I don't have a husband I like yet."

When Li Lizhi heard what Li Shimin said, she blushed instantly.

Li Chengfeng also had a smile on his face.

As my father, he failed to persuade me and decided to focus on Li Lizhi.

With Changle's temperament, I'm afraid even if he has someone he likes, it won't be the wealthy businessmen and politicians in Chang'an City.

"Father, please stop rushing us. You should rest more during the time you have!"

His words broke through the twists and turns in Li Shimin's heart.

After Li Shimin heard what Li Chengfeng said, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he never mentioned the marriage to Li Lizhi again.

Fan Meng on the side saw that there was a secret between the two father and son.

However, she was not curious about their secrets, but helped to smooth things over, easing the awkward atmosphere between father and son.

"Your Majesty, these are the snacks I prepared. Please have a taste, Your Majesty."

Fan Meng said as he took out the prepared food box and placed the exquisite snacks in the food box on the table in front of him.

The awkward atmosphere between Li Chengfeng and Li Shimin finally eased, and the family banquet continued happily.

…

Late at night, Li Shimin left the princess's mansion early, and the guests also dispersed.

"Why did you drink so much? You will have a headache tomorrow!"

Looking at the women who were completely drunk and falling asleep in front of him, Li Chengfeng shook his head repeatedly.

In order to celebrate Sister Changle's birthday, in addition to cake, he also specially prepared some sweet fruit wine.

These fruit wines taste no different from drinks.

However, for Datang, whose winemaking technology needs to be improved, the alcohol content of these fruit wines is not low.

The girls who were in high spirits drank a whole box of fruit wine and lay in a mess in the room.

Just when Li Chengfeng stood up and planned to ask the maid at the door to greet them, the sleepy Li Lizhi suddenly opened her eyes.

Looking at Li Chengfeng under the moonlight, Li Lizhi spoke slowly.

"Brother Feng'er, can you agree to my request?"

Li Chengfeng raised his eyebrows, subconsciously thinking that Li Lizhi was drunk and talking nonsense.

"You'd better rest first? We'll talk about anything tomorrow."

Li Chengfeng turned sideways and said to Li Lizhi who was lying on the ground.

Unexpectedly, Li Lizhi got up from the ground and came to Li Chengfeng.

"Brother Feng'er, I have been thinking about something for a long time."

"I want to go out and explore the world like you,"

Li Chengfeng was somewhat caught off guard by Li Lizhi's sudden request.

He had known for a long time that Li Lizhi wanted to make a career in the world and enjoy revenge.

Unexpectedly, after the last time, after seeing the dangers of the world, Li Lizhi would still insist on going to the world.

"Sister Changle, how about I accompany you to explore in a while?"

"After we deal with the matter in Chang'an, we will go out and explore the world together!"

Li Chengfeng stretched out his hand to steady the swaying Li Lizhi.

At present, the Gongzhao Society still doesn’t know when it will take action against Datang.

As a common weakness between himself and Li Shimin, it would be safer for Li Lizhi to stay in Chang'an.

Even if you want to go out and explore, you should at least have yourself by your side to be safer.

Li Lizhi originally wanted to say something more, but when she heard Li Chengfeng talk about Chang'an, her eyes gradually dimmed again.

She had some understanding of the powerful enemies that Datang was about to face.

Every time Li Chengfeng ventured out of Chang'an, it was to confront the mysterious organization called Gongzhaohui.

Especially the incident of kidnapping him and threatening Li Chengfeng was still vivid in his mind.

If you go to explore the world by yourself and fall into the hands of those people, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Well, you have to make me another cake when the time comes!"

After speaking, Li Lizhi swayed and collapsed to the ground again, and Li Chengfeng also walked out of the backyard living room.

"Take good care of Princess Changle and the others, or I will break your legs!"

After telling the maid at the door, Li Chengfeng went straight back to the Zhenwang Palace.

Now that the Japan incident and the martial arts incident have basically come to an end, it is time to take action against the Gongzhao Society.

However, Gong Zhaohui acted extremely cautiously, and every time he confronted them, he could only take action passively.

"Where are these rats hiding?"

Sitting cross-legged in the living room of the palace to practice, Li Chengfeng murmured softly.

…

Three days later, by the bustling Taihu Lake, Yang Qi, dressed in black robe, was walking back and forth by the lake holding a compass.

"Where exactly is it? It should be at this location!"

He traveled all the way from the Gongzhaohui base to Taihu Lake just to complete the task as soon as possible and cause some trouble for Li Chengfeng.

The strange old man who took the note when he left only gave him a compass and a map.

The mission content is just to find an ancient artifact that fell into it.

But when he actually came here, he ran into trouble. The compass guided him to Taihu Lake, but he fell into trouble at the edge of Taihu Lake.

The compass needle seemed to be spinning rapidly and never stopped, and he could not determine the specific location of the ancient object.

"My lord, where should we dive?"

The expressionless blood slave next to him came to Yang Qi and asked in a low voice.

"Evacuate first and collect all the county records nearby. I need to find out the specific location based on this map."

"Everyone acts silently and is not allowed to attract any official attention. Everything is focused on the mission."

Yang Qi had no choice but to temporarily change his action plan.

"Yes, sir!"

The blood slaves and Yang Qi then retreated one after another, and quietly left the Taihu Lake under the cover of night.

Fireworks slowly rose into the sky, turning into fireworks all over the night sky.

At this moment, thousands of lights in Suzhou City are bright, and no one knows that a conspiracy has quietly come.
