Chapter 57

As soon as Tao Yuan said this, Li Hui's eyes flashed clearly.

For a moment, his eyes were so sharp that they were as sharp as a knife.

A year ago, Tao Yuan mentioned to him that he wanted to promise his daughter to King Jian Li Le.

But Li Hui refused because they were too old.

At that time, Li Le was in his early thirties and Tao Xiying was fifteen years old, and she had just entered the palace.

The two are a bit different in age, but this is not the main reason why Li Hui refuses.

In the marriage of the sons, in addition to the prince, Li Hui hopes that the sons can marry women from low-level officials' families, even civilian women.

If the prince gets married to the daughter of an important minister in the court, it will undoubtedly form a strong alliance, either threatening the position of the prince or causing the court to fall into party struggles.

No matter what point it is, it is not what the emperor Li Hui, is willing to see.

Now, Tao Yuan once again proposed to betroth his daughter to his son, which made Li Hui really wary.

But the problem is that Tao Xiying's reputation was indeed destroyed in Li Yu's hands.

If Li Yu didn't marry someone, would Tao Xiying still be able to marry in this life?

But let Li Yu and the Tao family get married...

Li Hui's thoughts flew, and her eyes fell on Li Yu, but she didn't move away for a long time.

If it were any other son, Li Hui would definitely not agree to this marriage.

Only Li Yu made Li Hui hesitate.

Of course, it is not that Li Hui valued Li Yu the most, but among his sons, Li Yu was the least capable and the least concerned about the adjustment.

In addition, Li Yu does not value power.

If he didn't give him a title of king, he never asked himself, so he would be his free and easy prince with peace of mind.

With his personality, even if he is given a good marriage, he will not use the convenience of his in-laws to cultivate his own power in the court and participate in party struggles.

Another advantage of finding a strong in-law for Li Yu is that he can control him and let him take care of his temper. Don’t be willful all day long and don’t worry about four or six.

After thinking about it, Li Hui had already made a decision in her heart.

He spoke slowly and asked, "Li Yu, did you hear what Duke Zhenguo said?"

Li Yu lowered his head, his eyes rolled around and said, "I heard it."

"What do you think?"

"The child is still young and has not yet won the championship. At present... it is not suitable to get married!"

The Book of Rites says that a man was crowned with a crown of twenty years, and a woman was crowned with a 15th platoon.

Only after the crown and the hairpin can one be considered an adult and can one get married.

In real life, there are many men who get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen and women who get married at the age of twelve or three.

Therefore, knowledgeable people often lament that etiquette and music are broken.

Now, Li Yu wanted to turn off this marriage by using the excuse that he had not yet won the championship.

When Tao Yuan heard this, his eyebrows immediately twisted into a lump.

Li Yu and Tao Xiying are both sixteen years old.

When he gets the crown, his daughter will be twenty.

Could it be that his daughter wants to wait for him in the boudoir for four years?

When Li Hui heard this, the corners of her mouth curled invisibly.

I don’t know how many people can get married to the daughter of Duke Zhenguo and Shangshu Ling.

Even if it falls on the heads of the kings, I guess I will wake up from a smile in my dream!

Li Yu was fine, but he refused because he was too young.

He is really worthy of being the most uncontrollable son!

Before Li Yu could speak anxiously, Tao Yuan was ashamed of a great humiliation and asked loudly: "Your Highness Seventeenth Prince is going to force the little girl to death?"

"I...I don't have it!"

You can eat rice randomly, but you can't talk nonsense.

How could I try to force Tao Xiying to death?

A white lotus like Tao Xiying is probably the only one who can force others to death!

Tao Yuan stopped talking to Li Yu, but looked at Li Hui and couldn't help but burst into tears. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, choking and said, "Your Majesty..."

Li Hui quickly stepped forward and helped Tao Yuan up, then turned around angrily and scolded: "Sad son! Do you want to blame me for what I did wrong?"

Li Yu has no words anymore.

He drooped his head, like a suffocator.

"The seventeenth prince Li Yu, the eldest daughter of Duke Zhenguo Tao Xiying, I have chosen a date to get married, and my intention has been decided!"

"I am grateful to Your Majesty for your kindness and to make your decision!"

Tao Yuan was about to kneel down again, Li Hui rushed to support him first and smiled bitterly: "Duke Zhenguo, I'm sorry to Ling Qianjin!"

After a moment of pause, he said seriously: "Don't worry, Duke Zhenguo, I will let Xiying marry into the royal palace in a glorious manner!"

Prince's Mansion?

Hearing this, not only Tao Yuan looked dumbfounded, but even Li Yu was confused.

Li Hui walked to Li Yu, looked at him from a high place, and said in a deep voice: "Li Yu!"

"Baby is here!"

"If I grant you the King of Wu, would you like to stay in the capital?"

"Of course I don't want to..."

Halfway through the conversation, Li Yu paused, looked up carefully, and looked at his father.

Li Hui looked unclear and asked, "I don't want to stay in Beijing, where do you want to go?"

"Go back to... go back to my child's fiefdom!"

Very good!

Li Hui was very satisfied with Li Yu's answer.

Li Yu, the son, is not successful, but he does not have the intention to compete for power and profit.

In this way, he can feel more at ease with this marriage.

Li Hui turned around and looked at Tao Yuan again, and said with a smile: "Duke Zhenguo."

"I am here."

"Tomorrow morning..."

Without Li Hui finished speaking, Tao Yuan immediately understood and continued: "I understand that tomorrow morning, I will report to Your Majesty and confer the title of the Seventeenth Prince!"

"Yeah!" Li Hui nodded.

He held Tao Yuan's hand and said with a smile: "You and I are called kings and ministers, but they are like brothers and sisters. Today I get married and are really close to each other. I feel very relieved!"

Li Hui's words made Tao Yuan cry.

He knelt down and choked and said, "Your Majesty's kindness to me is unforgettable to me! I am willing to do this for you and for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am still unwilling to say goodbye!"

Li Yu looked at the two men of Jun Ming and Ministers and Sages, and secretly sighed in his heart, saying that if you want to say that it is amazing, your father is still powerful.

It was obviously an ugly thing, but it turned out to be a marriage and a happy event that won the hearts of the people.

Why no one asked myself if I would?

Fortunately, I am going to be crowned king.

When he successfully won the king, he immediately returned to his fiefdom and stayed away from the capital, a place of right and wrong.

Tao Yuan returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion with joy.

For his daughter, he really wanted to help Li Yu with help, persuade His Majesty to be king of him.

But unexpectedly, His Majesty himself took the initiative to bring it up.

It is not difficult to see from this that Your Majesty is not very disliked by Li Yu's son as rumored by the outside world.

On the contrary, Your Majesty is likely to like Li Yu very much.

Not long after he sat in the study, Tao Xiying came.

Seeing his daughter, Tao Yuan couldn't hide his smile and said, "Xiying, Your Majesty has given you a marriage to the Seventeenth Prince!"

Tao Xiying's eyes lit up.

Tao Yuan continued: "Guess what will happen tomorrow?"

"Daughter doesn't know."

"Tomorrow, Your Majesty will enthrone the Seventeenth Prince as King of Wu in the court!"

Tao Xiying couldn't hide her surprise.

Is Li Yu going to be crowned king?

Even this waste is going to be king?

After thinking about it, she felt that this matter was reasonable.

Doesn’t Li Hui’s ability to let Li Yu be the general of the flying guard just show that Li Hui values ​​Li Yu?
