Li Er's Probing
Li Er recalled the time when Chu Yi had appeared. The imperial examinations and the bank's fund-raising were all planned by Chu Yi.
The few ministers had discussed with him for a few days and nights, and the dilemma that they could not do anything about was easily resolved by this brat.
Li Er couldn't be considered regretful. So what if Chu Yi turned into a dragon? You are in the Great Tang and Chang 'an, so you can't escape from my palm.
This guy had a strange reputation of being a "fast horse poet", but with this poetic talent, he was still a peerless figure that would not appear in hundreds of years!
It doesn't matter, you still can't escape from my fingers.
However, Li Er vaguely felt that something was wrong. Looking at their precious daughter's eyes full of splendor, how could that kind of admiration escape the husband and wife's fiery eyes?
The couple instantly exchanged a knowing look.
No, this matter concerned his daughter's lifelong happiness. Even the emperor couldn't be at ease, right?
Empress Zhangsun pulled Li Lizhi over and said gently,""My dear daughter, do you know that Chu Yi?”
Of course I know him! He even treated me to a drink!
As a princess, it was taboo to talk to a stranger, let alone drink at the same table.
Li Lizhi swore to herself that she would never tell anyone about this. It was embarrassing.
" Mother, I've never seen Chu Yi before. I heard that he's very talented in poetry. If I could meet him…"
Li Er looked at Li Lizhi suspiciously. This girl's eyes didn't roll around habitually. She didn't seem to be lying, but he had to give it a try.
"Lizhi, from what I hear, you really want to get to know this Chu Yi?”
Hmm? Can't I know him?
What did Imperial Father mean? You wouldn't send your secret guards to beat up Big Brother Chu, would you?
"Father, I heard that this Chu Yi is very talented! Son." Li Lizhi quickly racked her brains." I just think that such a person shouldn't be a lost pearl in the sea. We should invite him out of the mountains and serve the Great Tang!"”
Li Er secretly heaved a sigh of relief. So this was what you had planned! She cherished her talent and was willing to use it for the country. Her taste was not bad and she had Princess Ping Yang's style back then.
However, your Aunt Ping Yang marrying Chai Shao is a match of equal social status. That is a perfect match for a perfect couple.
As for Chu Yi? There were many ghost names. If he were to show it early, I would not bully him for being a run-down peasant. I would definitely observe him before making a decision.
But now, it seemed like it was all too late.
Chu Yi has become your Daoist Sect uncle's son-in-law. You can't possibly fight with your Sister Xueyan for a husband, right?
As a princess, she could not be someone else's concubine.
The Great Tang would lose all its face!
Li Er stood up and smiled gently." Lizhi, you're very good. I'm very pleased that you can think of selecting talents for the country." However, that was what officials should do. Don't worry about it, just live a happy life! Sleep well!"
Li Lizhi let out a long sigh as she watched the string of red lanterns gradually fade away in the imperial garden. She had finally fooled them!
To recommend talents for the country? This princess doesn't have the leisure to do that!
But why was Big Brother Chu's figure still lingering in her mind?
He was so handsome, so talented, and his words and actions were unforgettable!
Could it be that she had fallen in love with him?
Li Lizhi's pink face was hot, and her neck was red.
She lifted the silk duvet on the bed and covered her head. Just thinking about it was embarrassing!
"Hey, hey, hey! Princess, you haven't undressed yet!"
The little palace maid, Yun Hua, sneaked in on tiptoe. When she saw her princess's ostrich appearance, she could not help but remind her.
Aren't you afraid of getting a rash on such a hot day?
"Little fatty, go away!"
Li Lizhi said in a muffled voice under the blanket,"Let this princess cover it a little more, I don't need you to care!”
Yun Hua was a personal palace maid. Naturally, she was not as timid as the other servants. Even if she occasionally argued with her master, Li Lizhi would not take it out on her.
"Alright then! I'll get you some water first. Also, Princess, I'm not fat. I'm plump, okay?”
Speaking of plump, Empress Zhangsun, who was quite famous for her beauty, was also deeply liked by Li Er. Of course, she was also very fair. She had been called "Guanyin Maid" since she was young.
Li Er had many beauties in his harem, but after so many years, he still doted on the Empress alone. They helped each other and walked forward hand in hand.
At this moment, in the harem.
"Guanyin maid, don't you think we're getting old? That brat said in his words that if the love between the two was long, how could it be morning and evening?”
Li Er pretended to be disdainful." He's just a virgin. How would he know the joy of being together day and night?"”
Empress Zhangsun slapped Li Er's hand away and rebuked,""You, you're already so old, but sometimes you're still fooling around like a child! I'm worried. Do you think our Lizhi has really fallen for Chu Yi?”
Li Er picked up the teacup on the table and slowly tasted it.
After a while, he sighed faintly and said,""You can't believe everything this girl says! At her age, her mind was always filled with fantasies. Sigh!”
Empress Zhangsun did not call for the palace maids outside. She personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Li Er. She said regretfully,""I still think that you were too careless back then! Chu Yi is indeed a good kid!"
Li Er's hands trembled, and his heart was not calm. He wanted to say that he regretted it, but he could not open his mouth for a long time.
"Zhen is the emperor. For so many years, Zhen has often looked in the bronze mirror. The emperor was also a human, and there would always be times when he made mistakes!
Look at that old man Wei Zheng. He often spits in front of me in the imperial court, but I didn't do anything to him! I admit that I misjudged Chu Yi.”
Empress Zhangsun gently patted Li Er's hand.""Alright, I don't blame you! Chu Yi was too good at hiding his strength! But…but our precious daughter, if she really took a fancy to that brat, would Your Majesty…"
Li Er couldn't help but roll his eyes. Am I such a petty person? Could it be that he would send someone to kill him for such a small matter?
However, it was not bad to put a cloth bag over him and drag him to a place where no one was around to beat him up.
Who asked this kid to cause trouble for me every day?
"What's done is done. What can we do? You, this empress mother, have spent so much effort. It was common for children to change their minds. Could it be that all the good men in this world were dead? Without Chu Yi, our Lizhi won't be able to find a husband?”
Empress Zhangsun nodded. She would never believe this. There were many meritorious families in Chang 'an. It was not difficult to find a good in-law of equal status!
