Although Li Lizhi said that Cheng Chuyu was very outstanding, Li Shimin still felt that it was a bit unbelievable.
Li Shimin could still believe that Cheng Chuyu had high martial arts attainments in Shen Feng Junlang.
However, he would never believe that she was knowledgeable, gentle, considerate, and understanding.
How could Cheng Yaojin raise such a son?
Nonsense!
Moreover, Li Lizhi kept saying that Cheng Chuyu was good and even clamored to marry him, which made Li Shimin feel that something was wrong.
Li Shiming stared at Li Lizhi and asked,"Lizhi, where did you go today?”
Li Lizhi had already thought of her words and said without changing her expression,"My daughter got lost today. As she walked, she walked to the southern district. In the end, she met a group of hooligans. It was Cheng Chuyu who saved me. He didn't know my identity. When he saw that my hand was injured, he took me to the courtyard he bought. He found some herbs for me to apply. He even roasted sweet potatoes and corn for my daughter to eat. We had a good chat…"
Some of these words were true and some were false. As for the fact that Cheng Chuyu had changed her clothes, she naturally could not tell Li Shiming.
Empress Zhangsun didn't know whether to laugh or cry.”
Was his silly daughter so easily moved by others?
Li Lizhi said guiltily,"Maybe…" Was it love at first sight?"
Empress Zhangsun was speechless. She covered her forehead and sighed.
Li Shi Min also fell silent. He still felt that this matter was too dreamy.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked,""Lizhi, you said he baked sweet potatoes and corn for you?”
Li Lizhi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She nodded and said,""That's right. The roasted sweet potatoes are sweet and soft, and the roasted corn is even sweeter and juicier. The taste of both is indescribable.”
"But why has Mother never heard of these things?" Empress Zhangsun frowned.”
"Cheng Chuyu said he bought the seeds from a merchant in the Western Regions and cultivated them himself," Li Lizhi answered truthfully.”
Li Shi Min looked interested and said,"A new species? I wonder what the yield is. If the yield is high and we can cultivate it in large quantities, it might become a new kind of food and solve the famine problem of the people in the pass…"
Seeing that Li Shiming was thinking about something else, Li Lizhi frowned and asked,"Then does Imperial Father agree to let me marry Cheng Chuyu?”
Li Shi Min felt a headache coming on.
If Cheng Chuyu was really as outstanding as her daughter said, then there was no harm in letting her daughter marry him.
After all, his daughter liked him, and the status of the Duke Lu Residence was considered to be of equal status.
But the problem was, was Cheng Chuyu really that outstanding?
Moreover, Zhangsun Wuji had once mentioned that his son should marry Li Lizhi, but Li Shimin did not agree because he was worried about his daughter's feelings.
However, Li Shimin still had the intention to facilitate this marriage. After all, Zhangsun Wuji and Empress Zhangsun had the same mother, and Zhangsun Wuji was also Li Shimin's close friend.
Isn't it beautiful to be close to the emperor?
After thinking for a while, he could only say," Father can let you choose the person you like to marry, but Father must examine whether this Cheng Chu Yu is really as outstanding as you say. If he is really a good-for-nothing playboy, Father will not let you marry him. Moreover, the relationship between a man and a woman needs to be mutually agreeable. If he does not like you, Father cannot force it."”
"How dare he not like me!" Li Lizhi immediately panicked.”
Li Lizhi's face flushed red as she recalled today's scene.
Li Shimin didn't notice Li Lizhi's strange expression and said meaningfully,"That's hard to say. Let's wait until tomorrow when Imperial Father calls him over to the palace for an inspection.”
In fact, Li Lizhi was not sure if Cheng Chuyu liked her or not. She was a little nervous, but her father had already said so, so she could only nod.
"Then I'll go down first."
Li Shi Min nodded.
After Li Lizhi left, Li Shimin asked Empress Zhangsun,""Guanyin maid, what do you think of this?”
Empress Zhangsun thought for a moment and said," That Cheng Chuyu must have some outstanding qualities to be able to win Lizhi's favor. However, we still have to get to know her well first. After all, this is Lizhi's lifelong event. It's better to think about it in the long run."”
"I think so too, but the auxiliary machinery…" Li Shi Min agreed.
Empress Zhangsun was smart enough to guess Li Shimin's concerns. She smiled and said,"Let's consider Lizhi's choice first. Let's not talk about my brother for the time being. Anyway, this matter hasn't been finalized, right?”
"That's the only way."
......
......
The next morning.
Cheng Manor.
Cheng Chuyu woke up early. Today, he had an appointment with Yuchi Baolin to fight cocks on Vermilion Bird Avenue. If he lost, he would have to pay.
Cockfighting was very popular in this dynasty. It was very popular among the royal family and nobles.
He was unlucky and lost a few days ago. Today, he had to pick a big fat rooster to win it back.
Actually, losing money wasn't important. The main thing was to fight for pride.
She brushed her teeth, washed her face, and then hurriedly ate breakfast.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the monthly check-in. Archery Proficiency! A top-notch fighting cock!"
At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
Cheng Chuyu's eyes could not help but light up. This time, he would definitely be able to defeat Yuchi Baolin!
Although the reward of cockfighting was a little useless, it came in handy for him at this time.
As for his archery proficiency, he didn't really care.
Cheng Chuyu could not help but open the system interface.。
