When Li Hongji returned, it was already late at night, but Qing Qian was still waiting for him in the main hall. It wasn't that she wanted to wait for him, it was because she couldn't get out.
"You're still here." Li Hongji smiled faintly at Qing Qian and then sat on the main seat as if he didn't see anything.
"Did you drink?" It wasn't that she had a sharp nose, it was that the smell of alcohol on Li Hongji's body was too strong.
"Yes." Li Hongji nodded and snorted. After drinking, he no longer had his usual malice and aggressiveness. Instead, he was more quiet.
" Qing Qian…" Li Hongji called out Qing Qian's name again. "Read it to me again. The one you sang at the Flower Pavilion.“
"You know about it?" Qing Qian was stunned. At that time, her gaze was focused on Ji Yafu, Li Yu, and Yan Lang, so she really didn't notice that there were other people.
"Heh, I'm sitting right next to you." Li Hongji smiled lightly." As expected, if I were with Li Yu, you would only see him.”Just now, his father had looked for him and said that he wanted to pass the throne to Li Yu. After being rejected by Li Yu, he was prepared to give the position to Imperial Uncle Li Jingsui. He really didn't know why his father would rather give the throne to an outsider than his eldest son.
" I…" Seeing the defeat in Li Hongji's eyes, although Qing Qian was surprised, she still recited " Breaking Enemy Formation " for Li Hongji to hear.
"To settle the affairs of the king and the world, to win the reputation of the dead.”Li Hongji slapped the armrest of his chair and stood up." It's just pitiful. I have the heart to serve the country, but I have no choice.”
Qing Qian stopped reciting and sighed slightly. "Li Hongji, if you can't change this world, then you should just get used to it.”
"Why?!" However, Li Hongji quickly walked in front of Qing Qian and grabbed her hand tightly." Why should I live in humiliation?!" Why?!"
Qing Qian struggled to free her hand." Since you can't adapt to it, then change it."”
"Change?" Li Hongji's eyes lit up. Yes, he wanted to fight.
"But can we keep a low profile?”Qing Qian was also stunned when she saw the killing intent in Li Hongji's eyes. She had actually forgotten her position and helped Li Hongji make the decision.
"Hiding my strength and biding my time, biding my strength and biding my time, I've been doing this for almost thirty years. You still want me to endure and hide, do you think I, Li Hongji, am destined to be mediocre in this life?”Li Hongji sighed and said," When Second Brother was around, Father wanted to give the throne to him. I endured it. Second brother is gone, and father wants third brother to be the emperor. Third Brother is gone, and Father wants Fourth Brother to be the Tang Lord. I still have to endure it. I've endured it for most of my life. We're both his sons, and I'm not inferior to them. Why doesn't he have any eyes for me?”
When Qing Qian heard this, she also let out a long sigh. She had always believed that a pitiful person must have something hateful about him, and a hateful person must have something pitiful about him. The Li Hongji in front of him was no longer the terrifying lion he was when he was sober. After he was drunk, he felt helpless and bitter.
"Li Hongji, it's not like your Imperial Father didn't see you.”Her clear voice was very soft." He's just afraid that if your temper is too strong, you'll incur the displeasure of those foreign powers and bring about a fatal disaster for Southern Tang.”
Li Hongji raised his head slightly when he heard Qing Qian's words and glanced at her." I know what you're saying. I just don't know why Father would rather live a humiliating life than fight back.”
"I don't know why he did it. However, there was still hope if he was still alive.”Qing Qian smiled faintly at Li Hongji.
Li Hongji was stunned. Qing Qian actually smiled at him? She was his captive, but she was comforting him when he was in a bad mood? This really was a strange woman. She shook her head and walked out of the main hall, leaving behind a stunned Qing Qian.
