Dou Xianniang's face was gloomy as she fiercely said,"
"Lu Mingyu! Don't you know how powerful our Li family is?
How dare you offend us!
We are the descendants of Li Hao, the founder of Xiliang during the Sixteen Kingdoms period.
My husband's grandfather, Li Hu, was a marshal during the Western Wei Dynasty. He joined forces with Prime Minister Yuwen Tai, Taibao Li Bi, and Sima Du Guxin to protect the Wei family. He was one of the eight pillar states of the Western Wei Dynasty and was granted the title of Duke of Tang.
My husband's father, Li Wei, was a censor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the chief of Anzhou, and the general of the pillar country. He was granted the title of Duke of Tang.
My mother-in-law is the elder sister of Emperor Wen's wife, Empress Dugu, and His Majesty is my husband's cousin!
Don't tell me you don't know this? You actually dare to go against our Li family. Are you tired of living?
"I'm giving you one last chance to live. Kneel down and kowtow to me to admit your mistake."
Take out 200,000 strings of betrothal gifts and give all your assets to our Li family.
I'll still acknowledge you as my son-in-law and let you marry Xiu Ning now!
Otherwise, you'll be alive to earn money, but you won't be able to spend it!”
Dou Xianniang's originally dignified and beautiful face was now filled with killing intent.
"Haha, you're making me a little scared!" Lu Mingyu laughed.
However, I heard that there is a prophecy circulating in Chang 'an recently. The Li family will rule the world!
I heard that His Majesty is very concerned about this. He has already killed Li Min and is now pursuing Li Mi!
I don't think you want him to remember this!”
……
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and all kinds of mysterious prophecies and rumors followed.
The most famous one was "The Li Consortium Should Have the World".
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty had even massacred the court's dignitaries for this prophecy.
The emperors of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty were all from the Guanlong aristocratic group, and there were many distinguished generals and ministers.
As a result, everyone in the world believed that the emperor after the Sui Dynasty should also be a noble from Guanlong.
The core members of the Guanlong Aristocrat Group were the Twelve Generals of the Western Wei Eight Pillar Nation. The emperors of the Northern Zhou and Sui Dynasties were also members.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, including the Yang royal family, only a few of the 20 families in Guanlong truly had political influence.
Three of them were surnamed Li. They were Li Yuan, Duke of Tang, Li Mi, Duke of Pushan, and Li Min, Duke of Jingcheng County, who were descendants of the Great General.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Min was the grandson-in-law of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and a trusted minister of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. His family's status in the Sui Dynasty was second only to the royal family.
Li Yuan was the cousin of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. He held military power and controlled Taiyuan.
Li Mi was the leader of the largest anti-Sui rebel army, the Wagang Army.
Among the Guanlong aristocratic groups that were most likely to seize the world, the Li family was the majority.
The three representatives of the Li family were the nobles of the imperial court, the powerful local factions, and the peasant uprising army.
Most of the founding emperors in ancient times were born from these three.
Because of this, there was a high probability that the emperor who replaced the Sui Dynasty would have the surname Li.
That was why there was a prophecy in society that the Li family would rule the world. This was also a common trick of divination.
Before this, Emperor Yang Guang suspected that it was Li Min and killed her.
Later on, when Li Mi became the master of the tiled mound, people suspected that it was Li Mi.
However, Emperor Yang Guang had always suspected that it might be Li Yuan, so he was very wary and suspicious of Li Yuan!
……
At that time, Fairy Dou's expression changed drastically!
This was a secret that only the upper class knew. Ordinary people did not know about this at all!
She didn't expect Lu Mingyu to know!
This had caught the Li family's weakness!
If the Li family continued to cause trouble,
If Emperor Yang Guang noticed, it would be detrimental to their family!
Dou Xianniang immediately realized that she had miscalculated a little!
The arrogant aura that Fairy Dou had just displayed was gone in an instant!
It was like a balloon that had been inflated and deflated in an instant!
Dou Xianniang looked at Lu Mingyu in a daze.
"Lu Mingyu! It seems that I have underestimated you!
Why don't we both take a step back? Our family only wants your betrothal gift of 200,000 yuan and doesn't want your business.
You should marry Xiu Ning now!
I think Zhangsun Wugou's wedding dress is very good. Let Xiuning change into it!”
Dou Xianniang still felt that she had the upper hand.
As long as he took a step back, Lu Mingyu would definitely agree!
These aristocratic families always felt so good about themselves!
Zhangsun Wugou instantly panicked.
In the past five years, Zhangsun Wugou had been most concerned about Lu Mingyu's feelings for Li Xiuning.
She was very worried that Lu Mingyu would waver in their relationship!
What if she were to take off her wedding dress and give it to Li Xiuning later? How would she be able to handle it!
