Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 397 Jealous
Lao Lu pondered for a moment and then replied: "Huo Linfeng has been staying at home recently, reading books, feeding the birds, and seems to have nothing to do."

"By the way, I also heard that he seems to be preparing for a poetry competition in a few days."

Poem competition?

Hearing this, Li Fu couldn't help being stunned.

About a few days ago, he received a letter, which was sent by Zhao Xinling.

And the content of the letter only said one thing, and that was to invite myself to participate in this poetry competition conference.

Li Fu was too lazy to participate in this kind of activity, after all, it was thankless.

But when he thought of Zhao Xinling's peerless appearance and seductive figure, Li Fu was a little moved.

After all, I'm not married yet, so of course I can't refuse a little beauty of this level.

Therefore, Li Fu decided to go to this ragtag poetry meeting by himself.

It is said that the scale of this poetry competition is not small, and even the current emperor will come in person.

Therefore, many aristocratic families are preparing for this poetry contest, and they all want to perform in front of the emperor.

If there is any talented person who falls into the eyes of the emperor, it will be smoke from the ancestral tomb, and it can soar into the sky.

Moreover, the rules of this poetry competition are very simple, because the participants are all young people.

Although the rewards are not very generous, the winner will definitely get everyone's attention, including the aloof emperor.

This is also its hidden bonus.

However, the person who received this reward, how to use this opportunity depends on his own good luck and ability.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Fu got up, washed and dressed.

The black-clothed guards were naturally also secretly protecting Li Fu.

The place where the poetry contest is held is in the East City of Chang'an City.

The poetry competition conference in this era is bigger than Li Fu imagined.

After all, they are all talents from big families, so the cards must be given enough.

Soon, Li Fu waited for Zhao Xinling.

Although he had already seen Zhao Xinling's peerless appearance, Li Fu was still amazed by her when they met again this time.

Zhao Xinling was wearing a long white dress, and her proud figure was outlined, making it hard to move her eyes away.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Zhao Xinling said to Li Fu with an apologetic smile as soon as they met.

"It's okay." Li Fu also replied politely.

After all, the two had already known each other, so this meeting was not so embarrassing.

Furthermore, Zhao Xinling is a lady after all, and her conversation must be passable, so the two of them communicated more and more naturally.

The two chatted for a while, and Li Fu suddenly said: "Miss Zhao, I think you look a little strange, did you get angry with someone just now?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xinling was a little surprised, and said, "You are really a god, can you tell from this?"

Li Fu chuckled and said, "Don't talk about that, just tell me why you are angry, maybe I can help you."

Zhao Xinling nodded and said, "Well, then I'll chat with you."

Afterwards, Zhao Xinling told Li Fu what happened this morning.

It turned out that Zhao Xinling's stepmother came to find her early this morning and asked him to give 2000 taels of silver as a dowry gift for her own son.

Her son has also reached the age of marriage and has a suitable partner, so Zhao Xinling's stepmother put her mind on Zhao Xinling.

When she heard that she asked herself for money for her son as a bride price for the woman, Zhao Xinling refused at that time.

Her stepmother, Mrs. Hu, naturally would not let Zhao Xinling go easily, and pursued her desperately.

Li Fu couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

Li Fu has heard of such rude and excessive demands many times.

Zhao Xinling's stepmother seems to always bully her like this.

"Oh, let's not talk about her. For such a shameless person, talking about it will only spoil the mood."

Zhao Xinling sighed, waved his hands and said.

Li Fu nodded silently, and began to think about it in his heart. He must find a way to help Zhao Xinling in the future.

But this matter is not easy to intervene.

After all, although I have a good relationship with Zhao Xinling now, but I don't have any real relationship.

I have always been an outsider, and there is no reason to intervene in the affairs between her and her stepmother.

But then again, Li Fu really couldn't understand that Zhao Xinling's biological father was still there.

How did he do it, just watching his only daughter being bullied at home like this?
It's really unreasonable.

And Zhao Xinling felt much more comfortable after talking about it, and soon forgot about it.

"I think there are more people over there, why don't we go over there and have a look."

Zhao Xinling pointed to a place in the distance and said to Li Fu.

Li Fu nodded and followed Zhao Xinling over.

What they didn't know was that in an attic not far away, two people were staring at them.

One of these two people is Huo Linfeng, the second son of the Huo family, and the other is from the Zhao family.

This person's name is Zhao Han, who belongs to Zhao Xinling's stepmother and her half-brother.

Huo Linfeng originally had a marriage contract with Zhao Xinling, but later Huo Linfeng canceled it on his own initiative.

Now, seeing Zhao Xinling's face with his own eyes, he really regretted it.

Before, how did he know that Zhao Xinling was as beautiful as a fairy.

If he knew, he would not call off the engagement even if he died.

At that time, he had never met Zhao Xinling, and thought she was an ugly woman.

In addition, he was pursuing another woman at that time, so he didn't take Zhao Xinling seriously.

Now Huo Linfeng just wanted to kneel on the ground and shout, to resume his engagement with Zhao Xinling.

In addition, he also saw clearly that the man standing next to Zhao Xinling and accompanying her shopping was actually Li Fu.

At the beginning, Huo Linfeng didn't really believe that these two people would have any intersection, but after confirming it a few times, he could only admit this fact.

Judging from the expressions and actions of the two of them, it is obvious that they are already very close friends, and there may even be a further relationship.

For a moment, Huo Linfeng was so jealous that he wished he could go down and kill Li Fu right now, and grab Zhao Xinling to his side.

At this time, Zhao Han who was beside him said coldly: "Hmph, I knew this wild girl Zhao Xinling had a man outside."

"Damn, what a slut, shame on my Zhao family!"

When Huo Linfeng heard this, he was furious, turned around and slapped Zhao Han.

In the past, Huo Linfeng knew that Zhao Han treated his half-sister very badly.
