Chapter 23: Conferred as a Princess
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, "Well, he is a good boy and looks good. The Ai family came here originally to talk to you about the marriage, but now that the child's face is so injured, it seems that he has to choose someone else.
Already."
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. Zhili is fine. This injury will be fine in two days. It is Zhili's honor to be able to marry the princess and contribute to Langyue Kingdom." Liu Zhili said with a smile, without any trace of emotion on his face.
An unwilling look.
Long Yuhan's heart suddenly sank. He seemed a little disappointed when he heard her words. Didn't this woman even sacrifice her life to refuse marriage a few days ago? Now she is eager to get married early. Does she hate him so much? He wondered
He stared at her, but she didn't even look at him.
"You have such awareness at such a young age. Ai Jia really did not misjudge the person! However, it is hard to say whether the injury on your face will leave scars after it heals. Let's just say that there is no age difference between you and Yu Han.
Big, being a father and daughter is not suitable after all, so the Ai family will first name you Princess Hechang, so that the Ai family will have another well-behaved daughter. As for the marriage, we can wait until you recover from your injury." The queen mother said with a smile.
"Zhili, thank you, mother!"
"Mother?" The Queen Mother looked at Liu Zhili doubtfully.
Liu Zhili smiled and explained: "'Mother' is the folk name for mother."
The Queen Mother excitedly held Liu Zhili's hand, with a happy smile on her face
"Good daughter, come here, this is a meeting gift from the Queen Mother." After saying that, he took off the Jiuluan Phoenix Hairpin from his head and put it in Liu Zhili's hand. "If anything happens in the future, take this and go to the palace to find the Ai family."
.
Xiaoya looked at the exquisite Jiuluan Fengchai in Liu Zhili's hand and was very happy. With this Jiuluan Fengchai, let's see who dares to bully the young lady!
"Zhili, thank you, Queen Mother!" Liu Zhili smiled heartily.
Long Yuhan looked at the mother and daughter singing together, and the deep look in his eyes became even heavier.
Just looking at the surface, who would have known that the empress dowager, who was filial and respectful, with a kind face, would have her hands stained with blood in the palace and kill all the beloved concubines around the late emperor one by one.
The mother-in-law died in her hands.
I am afraid that only this woman knows why his many brothers and sisters are sick and dying.
Therefore, he was strategizing, but he was living under her nose, living in a bright world. She wanted to make a move, but she couldn't find the opportunity.
Long Yuhan still drank tea indifferently, the warm color on his face was still there, but his eyes were already cold, and a cold darkness shrouded his heart. He still had a touching smile on his lips.
Everyone was immersed in this happy atmosphere. No one noticed the change in Long Yuhan's expression. Only Liu Zhili, who was observant, could see it all. What on earth made him so angry?
"By the way, there will be a state banquet held in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival next month. Zhili, you can come too... Haha, the Ai family will be happy just to see this child." Liu Zhili quickly came back to his senses and smiled: "
Yes, Queen Xie!"
"Okay, it's getting late. It's time for the Ai family to return to the palace. Yuhan, you have to take good care of Zhili and don't let others bully her." The Queen Mother said to Long Yuhan with a serious face.
"Yes." Long Yuhan replied lukewarmly. Only he knew in his heart that this state banquet was clearly a Hongmen Banquet, and the Queen Mother must have been prepared for it.
