The next day.
Besides the Beijing-Huaihe River.
On a small boat.
"Brother Yue, I don't want to marry Gongsun Chong!"
Liu Ruyu burst into tears.
Li Yue saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He didn't sleep all night last night.
"I...I don't want to either!"
Liu Ruyu bit her lip, "Go and ask His Majesty for grace!"
" I...I..."
Li Yue was distraught, "My father and mother have already agreed to the grace that my uncle asked for. If I ask for it, they will not only refuse it. I will agree, but I’m afraid it will bring you trouble!”
Liu Ruyu was stunned, “So, you have already decided, right?”
“Ruyu, I. ..."
"Li Yue, I just want to tell you the truth. Do you want to go and ask His Majesty, or have you not thought about it?"
Li Yue smiled bitterly, "Yes. Is there a difference? Gongsun Chong is the eldest son and grandson of the Gongsun family and his mother’s nephew. He will definitely be the prince’s minister in the future, but I am still the eighth prince who no one cares about!”
Liu Ruyu was extremely disappointed. "Do you think I like you because you are a prince?"
"Ruyu, that's not what I meant..."
"Li Yue, Let me ask you, are you willing to ask for grace for me?"
Li Yue was extremely conflicted.
Asking for grace will undoubtedly offend the father, and even the queen mother will find it difficult to do so.
Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Liu Ruyu smiled sadly, "I understand!"
She stood up and said, "My mother has agreed to this marriage. My father is in southern Xinjiang. You know very well that if the Queen writes a letter, he will definitely agree. Once the imperial decree comes, I will be the wife of the Gongsun family. From now on, you will go your own way and I will cross my bridge. We have nothing to do with each other!"
Li Yue felt a sting in his heart.
He clenched his fists tightly and said, "Ruyu!"
But Liu Ruyu was already disappointed with him. She said to the boatman: "Come ashore!"
< p> She simply turned around and stopped looking at Li Yue.The atmosphere was stagnant.
Li Yue was in great pain.
The ship docked.
Liu Ruyu slowed down. She was still waiting for Li Yue to come out and call her.
But she was disappointed.
Li Yue did not come out.
Liu Ruyu smiled sadly, "It turns out that I, Liu Ruyu, fell in love with the wrong person!"
This sentence was neither light nor heavy, but it happened to reach Li Yue's ears.
At that moment, Li Yue's inner defense was crushed.
His eyes were red.
He is such a coward.
What kind of man is he if he can't protect the woman he loves?
Although Qin Hanzi is weak, he is more manly than himself.
Deep in the palace, he knows how to preserve things.
He has never argued.
Why should he take his beloved away too?
He rushed out like crazy, only to find that Liu Ruyu's carriage had gone away.
He clenched his fists tightly and strode toward the palace.
At this time, in Tai Chi Palace.
Li Shilong was in a good mood. Although the treasury was still empty, he was very happy to have tested Gongsun Wuji.
He allowed Gongsun Wuji to be a favorite and capable minister.
But Gongsun Wuji was not allowed to be a powerful official.
This is not only to take care of Queen Gongsun’s face, but also for the sake of future generations.
"Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince is here!" Gao Shilian reminded in a low voice.
"Oh, doesn't he usually like to come here?"
This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.
Li Shilong frowned slightly. Li Yue usually saw him like a cat meeting a mouse, which means he was braver when it came to Qin Mo.
He can't say he likes Li Yue, but he is his own son after all. In addition, he is not as tall and handsome as Li Chengqian, and he is not as smart as Li Zhi. Among the many princes, he has no sense of presence. .
Fortunately, he is good enough and does not cause trouble. Li Shilong is quite satisfied with him.
"Let him come in."
"The Eighth Prince is here to see you!" Gao Shilian shouted loudly!
Li Yue straightened his clothes, walked quickly into the palace, knelt down on his knees, "My son, please see my father!"
"Pingsheng, what do you want from me?"
"Father, I have something to ask of you!"
"Oh?"
Li Shilong said: "What is it?"
< p> "I sincerely ask my father to marry Liu Ruyu, the daughter of Lord Zhu Guo!""Shut up!"
As soon as Li Yue finished speaking, Li Shilong yelled, "I will I know that there is definitely no good thing coming to me. Yesterday in the imperial dining room, your mother and I agreed to Wuji. Your mother even wrote a letter to Duke Zhu Guo personally. Although there has not been an imperial edict on this matter, you should know it. We all know that.
Are you going to let me and your mother break our promise?"
Li Yue smiled bitterly in his heart, he knew it would be like this, but There was no way out for him.
Even if he is punished, he still has to say that he does not want Liu Ruyu to despise him, let alone make her think that she loves the wrong person!
"Father, my son and Liu Ruyu are in love with each other. If I don't marry Liu Ruyu in this life, please ask my father to help me!"
"What a sin!"
Li Shilong was furious, "You are a prince, You have made a big mistake by having a private meeting with the daughter of a minister. Do you still have the face to ask for grace from me?"
Li Shilong of the Liu family has been on guard, and he plans to persuade Li Chengqian to use it.
If Gongsun Wuji hadn't proposed it, he would have even wanted Liu Ruyu to be Li Chengqian's concubine.
It’s Li Yue’s turn there!
"Father, I have never asked my father for anything. I only begged my father to help me!"
Is Li Yue afraid?
He was terrified.
But he has no regrets!
If he can't even protect the one he loves, what's the point of living in this world!
"Get out!"
Li Shilong picked up the pen washer on the imperial desk and smashed it directly, hitting Li Yue directly on the forehead.
At that moment, blood flowed like a river!
But even though he was bleeding, Li Yue did not take a step back, "Ask my father, please let me do it!"
"Reverse! Reverse!"
Li Shilong was extremely angry, "Come here, take this rebellious son down. Don't take a step forward before Gongsun Chong's wedding!"
"Father, I beg you..."
Li Yue was pulled down ruthlessly, and his voice echoed in Tai Chi Palace.
Li Shilong paced anxiously. It was a scandal for the prince to have a secret meeting with the daughter of a minister.
And Li Yue, who has always been undisputed, is still interested in Liu Chenghu's daughter.
This made Li Shilong think more deeply, "Do you also want to fight? Have you ever been able to fight?"
Being pulled back to the palace where he lived, Li Yue became extremely anxious.
He knows that asking for help will not get you anything.
"Is this the result of not being favored?
Even if you beg, no one will listen, right?"
Li Yue laughed at himself, that laughter Growing bigger and bigger, "I am just a weed, living in the cracks and never fighting for it. Even if I am sad and sad, no one will come over."
At this moment, he suddenly figured it out.
If you don’t fight, you will be looked down upon. Then if you fight, this is the right given to him by his status.
He thought of Qin Mo, "Who says I don't have support, doesn't Qin Mo?"
He gritted his teeth. Although he didn't have the support of civil servants, he might , can get the support of military commanders!
But Qin Mo hesitated! ?
