I Want A Joust For A Spouse!
"Crown Prince?"
Li Chaoge couldn't help but frown at Cuixiang's words.
A look of disgust flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian did not have a good reputation. Ever since Li Chengqian was crippled, his personality had become more and more eccentric. He seemed to be afraid that his crippling would affect the Crown Prince's status. During this period of time, he had continuously roped in people who wanted to rely on him and suppressed dissidents. He did everything he could. It could be said that he was extremely sinister.
This was why Li Chaoge's straightforward personality rejected Li Chengqian.
Now that she heard that Li Chengqian actually came to propose marriage and wanted to marry her, how could she tolerate it?
She waved her hand and was about to walk to the hall. Cuixiang knew her young lady's temper, so she quickly stopped Li Chaoge and said,""Miss, don't be rash. This is His Highness the Crown Prince, he has a respected status. If you offend him, perhaps even the Old Master will be affected.”
Li Chaoge paused at Cuixiang's words.
She could ignore herself, but she could not ignore her family.
At this moment, Li Chengqian just happened to walk out of the hall.
Li Chengqian's eyes lit up when he saw Li Chaoge.
Li Chaoge was really beautiful, and she wasn't as weak as a normal woman, but as heroic.
This was definitely unique in ancient times.
Li Chengqian was wearing a luxurious robe and holding a feather fan. When he saw Li Chaoge, he bowed slightly and said with a smile," Sister Chaoge, you're back."
Li Chaoge felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard Li Chengqian address him so intimately.
"Greetings, Your Highness," she replied coldly.”
Li Chengqian felt a little unhappy seeing Li Chaoge treat him so coldly, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said,""Sister Chaoge is still as cold as ever, but I like her.”
He then turned to Li Jing, who was sending him out, and said,""Mr. Li, you don't have to see me off. Think about what I said. It's the best choice for Chaoge to marry me. I believe Mr. Li will give me a satisfactory answer.”
Li Chengqian gave Li Chaoge one last infatuated look, then shook his feather fan and left.
After Li Chengqian disappeared from his sight, Li Chaoge quickly said to Li Jing,""Father, what's going on? What did the Crown Prince say to you?"
Li Jing's expression was very solemn at this moment. He frowned as if he had encountered something difficult. When he heard his daughter's words, he hesitated for a moment and finally sighed. Chaoge, it's time for you to get married."
"What?"
Li Chaoge was shocked. She didn't expect her father to force her.
Li Jing said," The court is getting more and more chaotic now. The Crown Prince, the King of Wei, and the King of Shu are fighting for power. None of them are willing to be subordinate to others. Now, some of the important officials in the court have been forced to take a stand.”
" As for me, because I hold military power, I'm one of the targets they want to rope in. Therefore, these few days, they first sent their subordinates to propose marriage. Today, they even personally came to propose marriage. It can be seen that…they can't wait any longer.”
"If I don't make a choice now, it's very likely that I'll incur the displeasure of the three of them at the same time. They'll think that I'm waiting for the right price…If that's the case, it'll be very disadvantageous to us.”
Li Jing thought back to the treacherous court and could not help but feel a headache.""The political situation can often not be used by us, but it can never be used by others. Therefore, they would rather destroy us than let us rely on the other party.”
" Therefore, if we don't make a decision now, it's very likely that we'll be ostracized by the three parties. At that time…"
Li Jing shook his head and did not continue.
But Li Chaoge was smart enough to understand what Li Jing meant.
In other words, the choice she had now was to marry someone and belong to a certain faction.
Or they would be prepared to face the joint attack and ostracization of the three sides at the same time.
Although the Li family held a high position, it was difficult to resist the attacks of the three princes and the entire court. In the end, the outcome was self-evident.
Therefore, Li Chaoge was forced into a dead end.
She couldn't help but turn pale. Thinking about how she had searched for a month without any news of that hateful fellow, she felt even more miserable.
Now, she was about to be forced to marry someone. Even if she saw him again in the future, she would already be a wife. What was the use?
Li Chaoge couldn't help but tremble.
Chaoge, are you alright?"
The red horsetail whisk girl had been concerned about her daughter. Seeing her daughter's body swaying and almost falling, she could not help but grab her daughter's hand and say with concern.
Li Chaoge shook her head and forced a smile.""I'm fine."
She had been sensible for a long time, so she would not hesitate to sacrifice herself and her family.
"Father, who do you want me to marry? Daughter…" she asked.
She bit her lip and after a moment of silence, she seemed to use all her strength to say,"Daughter, I'll listen to you."
Although Li Chaoge had hidden it well, she couldn't hide it from her parents.
" It's already unfair for Father to let you get married," Li Jing said with heartache." But given the situation, Father…can't stop it."”
"However, I won't force you to marry anyone. You can choose for yourself. You can choose from any of the three factions. Even if it's the three princes, as long as you're willing, I can definitely help you.”
"Also…"
Li Jing gritted his teeth and said," You can choose not to choose any of the three forces. You can also choose someone else, even if it's an ordinary person."”
Li Chaoge looked at Li Jing blankly.
Li Jing said," We have two choices. One is to stand on the side and choose which faction. The other is to remain neutral. As long as the person you marry is not from one of the three factions, we will remain neutral like we are now. This way, as long as they know that there is still a chance to rope us in, they will not do anything particularly overboard to us.”
Li Jing looked at his daughter and said,""I don't want to force you. Even if you are forced to marry someone, I hope that you can marry someone you like. At least…I won't let you become a victim of political struggles.”
Hearing his father's sincere words, Li Chaoge felt even more miserable. After meeting that hateful guy, his heart…couldn't hold anyone else.
But, where are you?
Li Chaoge closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and said,""Father, I have a request."
"What?"
"Your daughter wants to find a spouse through a martial arts competition. I will marry whoever can defeat your daughter!”
