After wearing a book, I was forced to marry by the villain

"Huh?" Li Geng's face was startled, he took a breath, stared at Emperor Hui in a daze, his mind was spinning rapidly.

What does the father mean by asking this?Is it a test?Is it a test?Are you really asking?or something else...

Li Geng felt a chill down his spine and numbness in his scalp. This question made him feel at a loss as to how to answer it.

Logically speaking, there is no reason for the father to pass on the throne to him, and he is still very self-aware about this.

But why did the emperor ask this question?

Could it be that Father really intends to pass on the throne to me?When Li Geng had this idea, he widened his eyes, not daring to say anything: "Father, father, what do you mean?"

Emperor Hui said softly: "Didn't hear clearly or haven't thought about it?"

Li Geng pursed his mouth, his heart beating like a drum, no matter how stupid he is, he knew that if he had anything to do with the throne, it would be nothing good. After hesitating for a while, he stood up, knelt down, and said honestly : "Father, my child has never thought of becoming an emperor."

"Huh?" Emperor Hui raised his eyebrows, "Haven't thought about it?"

Li Geng shook his body, lowered his head, and was a little timid, afraid that he was really afraid, so that he stammered: "Yeah, no, I thought about it occasionally, but just thinking about it, baby, baby I really don't want to, don't want to Be the emperor." After speaking, she was so frightened that she wiped away tears.

Emperor Hui was extremely disgusted, frowned, and said, "Why are you crying?"

Li Geng hurriedly wiped away his tears, and begged for mercy: "Father, the child is wrong, please forgive me."

Emperor Hui was even more disgusted, tutted, and said, "Who said you're going to kill me? It's just a casual question, look at your talent!"

Li Geng sniffed, raised his head to look at Emperor Hui boldly, and said timidly: "Father, this child is only good enough, you really scare the child by asking this casually."

Emperor Hui squeezed the space between his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to signal him to get up, and sighed, "You have the guts of a sesame seed, I'm really going to die in the future, how do you protect your mother?"

Li Geng choked out his breath, his expression faltered, and he hurriedly said: "Father, you are the son of heaven, you can live long." He was about to cry again, and said sadly: "The queen mother and the baby need the protection of the emperor."

Emperor Hui looked at him and said, "Long live?" He snorted, "You also believe this kind of nonsense." Then he said, "When I was your age, I was the only one in everything, you and your second brother With my cousin and your mother, I can rest assured."

"Father," Li Geng looked at him with a sad face, "We all need you."

Emperor Hui still looked at him, and said seriously: "It's not a child, why are you crying? I'm not dead yet."

Li Geng couldn't control it, his nose was sore, tears poured out, he wiped it again and again, it was also a happy thing to be scolded by Emperor Hui for the first time.

The meal was full of mixed flavors, after the meal, Emperor Hui fell asleep tired, Li Geng was depressed after returning to his own palace, and went to pay Mrs Chen the next day, crying again uncontrollably.

Chen was taken aback, and asked what was going on distressedly.

Li Geng wiped his tears and said: "Mother, promise my son that I must live a long life, okay?"

Mrs. Chen nodded in response, looking at Li Geng's tears, she couldn't help laughing and said: "I'm old enough to marry a wife, and I still cry so much, what should I do in the future."

Li Geng sniffed, frowned and said: "Mother, when is it, you are still joking with the baby."

Chen wiped his tears for him, and said softly: "My mother didn't joke with you, I went to see your father last night, and he mentioned your marriage."

Li Geng had tears in his eyes, he was stunned, and then he said: "Yesterday, the child accompanied Father to eat, and Father didn't say anything about it."

"Your father told me about it while he was having supper after he fell asleep." Chen shi pulled Li Geng to sit on the couch, "Your father proposed a few candidates, you can see if you are satisfied." As he spoke, he reached out and took a booklet from the square table and handed it to Li Geng.

Li Geng frowned, pushed the booklet over, shook his head and said: "My son doesn't think about it yet." He added: "Elder brother and second elder brother are not married yet, my son is even less anxious."

Mrs. Chen stuffed the booklet again, and said: "My silly son, it's better to pick first than last. Look at the queen mother, these girls are all from high-ranking officials and noble families. If you have a favorite, just choose an auspicious day and send it to me." The marriage is done."

Li Geng almost choked, his eyes widened, and he said speechlessly, "What are you doing in such a hurry, Empress? Father's body is now...you don't know."

"That's why there are happy events in the palace," Chen insisted, "Li Ao is not welcomed by your father now, and Li Ji's child went to Liangzhou, now is the time for you to show off, last night I wondered if your father mentioned your marriage because he also wanted to be happy, if we guessed your father's intentions and made him happy, wouldn't it be a good thing."

Li Geng was extremely unhappy, frowned and said: "Mother, don't guess at your father's thoughts at will, whether you are happy or not, don't make a mistake and make your father angry with you. It will be too late to regret.”

Mrs. Chen frowned, thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "Anyway, your father thinks you are right to marry a wife. Otherwise, what would he propose to me?" He sighed, and said sadly: "You Father's body is seriously ill, so many sons don't get married, as a father, he wants to watch his son get married, this can't be wrong."

Li Geng didn't speak, and sighed sullenly before he said: "Mother, will Father's illness be cured?" Without waiting for Mrs. Chen's answer, he hoped: "Is it going to be cured? Father will surely live a long life .”

Chen opened her mouth. She also hoped that Emperor Hui would live a long life, so that she and Li Geng could have a backing. For these days, she was always worried day and night, and she was worried that if something bad happened to Emperor Hui, her mother The days of the two of them were really landslides.

However, now that Emperor Hui has mentioned Li Geng's marriage, he should simply find a reliable one. In addition to his natal family, if there is any change at that time, he will not be so worried.

Chen has her own plans, she only has Li Geng as a son, she has no big ambitions, and she is not expected to be an emperor, now she only wants Li Geng to live a long and stable life.

"My dear son, you choose and see, in case you like it, if you don't choose, let someone else choose, then there will be no place to cry." Chen seemed to be coaxing a child to stuff the booklet In the hands of Li Geng, "The painter has painted portraits of these girls, you should take a closer look at them one by one."

Li Geng looked reluctant, he was really not in the mood to choose any girl to marry, at this juncture, his father was seriously ill, and his second brother and cousin were far away in Liangzhou, he only felt that he had a heavy burden on his shoulders, not to mention anything else The most important thing is to protect the father and restore his body and bones. After all, a country cannot live without a king, and he cannot live without a father!

When his thoughts turned here, Li Geng felt that his burden was heavy, and he looked at the booklet in his hand with a heavy face. He didn't want to make his mother angry, so he said: "The child goes back and reads it carefully."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen immediately showed a smile: "Okay." Then said: "Geng'er, how many candidates are there for the queen mother, the daughter of General Shen Wei, the daughter of Minister of War Shi Hongen, and..."

"Mother, the child knows." Li Geng interrupted: "The child still has homework to do, so don't bother the mother."

Chen didn't keep him, and before he left, he explained: "Choose and watch after finishing your homework."

Li Geng responded in a perfunctory manner, and went back to the palace without hesitation, leaving the booklet aside.

When Dai Qin came, he saw the brochure at a glance, picked it up and flipped it over and asked, "What is this?" When he saw the image of the woman on it, he couldn't help frowning, and said with disgust, "It's still pretending on weekdays. It’s so serious, I didn’t expect…”

"Bah, bah, bah! Where are you going!" Li Geng interrupted loudly, "These girls are all bride candidates that my mother asked the painter to draw."

Hearing this, Dai Qin's eyes widened, "You married so many?" As he said that, his forehead jumped suddenly, a jealous fire rose, and he shouted: "Li Geng! You are too greedy! What do you think of me!"

Li Geng yelled at him for a moment, and then asked in a daze: "What are you doing so loudly? You scared me." He was used to being submissive, and then he said in a bad mood: "What do you want me to marry a wife for?" ? Who are you to yell at His Highness!"

Dai Qin threw away the booklet in his hand, still sulking, glaring at Li Geng and saying: "This kind of sincere sincerity should be fed to the dogs!" After finishing speaking, he snorted, turned around and left.

Li Geng froze in place for a moment, he didn't expect Dai Qin to be really angry, blinked, scratched his head, and greeted the little eunuch: "What's the matter with him today? Who messed with him?"

Naturally, the little eunuch couldn't answer, so he lowered his head and said respectfully, "Return to Your Highness, I don't know."

Li Geng frowned, looked at the door, turned back for a moment, scoffed, and muttered: "It's weird." He found Dai Qin's sandalwood box, picked it up, and muttered, "Give it to me again today." What is it?" He opened the brocade box with his hands, and inside was a pair of jade-carved horses, which were so lifelike that people liked it at a glance.

"This horse is really well carved," Li Geng said to himself, "It must not have been done by him."

Dai Qin was distraught, really angry with Li Geng, thinking how could he ever be so angry with a dignified prince, but no matter how angry he was, he still couldn't help but feel that Li Geng was perfect.

Perfect is perfect, hateful is really hateful, Dai Qin didn't go to Li Geng for several days.

Li Geng was also upset, he was fine for the first two days, but not only did Dai Qin not come to play with him these few days, he even couldn't see him when he went to see him.

"Get out of the way!" Li Geng showed the aura of a prince, with a tiger's face, "I clearly heard him in the room, but you dog slave said he was not there, you are so brave to lie to my highness!"

After finishing speaking, he pushed the slave away and stepped into the room. Dai Qin was indeed in the room, fiddling with something in front of the desk. When he saw Li Geng coming, if he had been in the past, he would have greeted him early, but now he was as stable as Mount Tai, and he couldn't even move his eyes. He didn't even look at Li Geng, he just concentrated on playing with his things.

"Hey, are you sick?" Li Geng stepped forward and asked.

Dai Qin frowned, looked up at him, and asked in confusion, "Is it sick? I don't know where the Third Highness heard this?"

Li Geng stopped in front of the desk, and asked again foolishly: "If you are not sick, why don't you visit me to play these few days?" He pursed his lips and paused, and continued: "I can't see you when I come to see you, aren't you What did you do when you were sick?"

Dai Qin didn't know how to answer for a moment, he paused and said: "The Third Highness is about to get married, it's somewhat inappropriate for me to always go to your place."

"Ah?" Li Geng frowned, "Who said I'm getting married? Besides, even if I'm going to get married, what's wrong with you going to my place?"

"Aren't you married?" Dai Qin asked emphatically, without waiting for Li Geng's answer, he continued: "Isn't the girl in the booklet going to marry you?"

Li Geng's delicate face was wrinkled, and a pair of beautiful almond eyes stared: "When did I say that I want to marry them? It was just chosen by the queen mother, and it was just used to perfunctory the queen mother. I didn't even look at it, but You read it first." After a pause, he asked, "Could it be that you have taken a fancy to it?"

Let Dai Qin frowned, and said bluntly, "I've taken a fancy to you."

Li Geng: "...?"

These words were completely sincere, Li Geng was stunned at first when he heard it, then he laughed as a joke, then his face tensed, he waved his fists and scolded: "If you say such rude words to Your Highness in the future, be careful with my fists. "

Dai Qin raised one eyebrow, sighed, and didn't say any more, but now he was in a better mood, as long as Li Geng was not married, he would have a chance.But having said that, when Li Geng reached the age of marriage, his father, queen, and empress might point out the marriage one day, and then there would be no chance at all.

Dai Qin glanced at Li Geng and asked, "What kind of person do you want to marry?"

Li Geng, who was fiddling with the wooden carvings on the table, said absently, "I haven't thought about it."

Dai Qin seemed very surprised, he didn't even believe this, Li Geng is seventeen years old, how could he not have thought about it, he didn't give up, and said: "When I was eleven or twelve years old, I wanted to marry someone in the future, you now I'm already seventeen, how could I not have thought about it."

Li Geng looked at him with disdain and a little impatience: "The queen mother said that people who think about their daughter-in-law all day long are probably not very promising."

Dai Qinqie laughed: "It was your mother who said that you got married, and it was your mother who said that marriage was worthless. Your mother said everything about you, but you still listen to her."

Li Geng didn't see any ambiguity, he smiled silly and sweetly, and said: "I have always listened to my mother's words, but I put filial piety first."

Dai Qin laughed speechlessly, and didn't want to talk anymore.

Li Geng looked at the woodcarving on the table and said, "Your craftsmanship is better than that of the stalls in the market. Hey, when did you start learning to carve?"

Dai Qin smiled lightly: "When I was very young, about three or four years old, no one played with me, so I would weave and carve flowers, plants, trees and stones. A habit."

Li Geng sat opposite him, resting his chin, and asked curiously: "Why is no one playing with you? Aren't you your father's favorite prince? There should be a lot of brothers chasing you to play, my elder brother is like this, Gong People of the same age inside and outside the palace love to play with him."

Dai Qin put down the carving knife in his hand, looked up at Li Geng and asked without answering: "Is anyone still playing with him?" Before Li Geng could answer, he smiled: "I have lived outside the palace for more than ten years. I was only approached by my father in the palace when I was young."

"Why?" Li Geng became even more curious, staring at Dai Qin with his beautiful eyes, waiting for his answer.

Dai Qin thought for a moment, then said: "Neither do I...

Li Geng continued to ask: "Then you didn't ask your father?"

Dai Qin smiled: "I didn't ask, Father must have his reasons for doing that."

Li Geng pursed his lips: "That's right." After a pause, he changed the subject and asked him why he always gave him a pair of gadgets.

Dai Qin curled his mouth, looked at him with a smile on his face, and asked again: "Why do you think so?"

Li Geng put his hand on his chin, and said purely: "Could it be that you are afraid that one of those little things will be alone, so the two of you should have a companion?"

Dai Qin was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily, straightened his body, looked at Li Geng and said, "Yes, but you are only half right..." He leaned forward towards Li Geng, raised his eyebrows freely, "I told you earlier, I want to give you a pair with my body. You can't even see the obvious meaning?"

Li Geng's expression was slightly stiff, and he said in a fierce and deep voice: "If you say such things again, my Highness will really be rude."

Dai Qin still wanted to talk, but Li Geng stood up abruptly and said first, "I still have something to do, let me do your work, don't send me off." After saying that, he left quickly.

Dai Qin said loudly: "I'm serious."

Li Geng, who walked to the door, was so frightened by these words that he tripped over the threshold and cursed angrily.

……

Chen Yuan stuffed the letter written in English, tied it to the pigeon's leg and let it fly. When he returned to the bed, Li Ji asked him what the symbols on the letter meant.

Chen Yuan explained with a smile that it was in English, and said: "In this way, even if someone from King Yu finds out, no one will understand what it means."

Hearing this, Li Ji frowned and said, "Is there someone who understands father?"

"Go to the academy to find the dean, he understands." Chen Yuan said.

"I didn't expect the dean to understand the language of birds." Li Ji murmured, "I've never heard that eagles have words before."

Chen Yuan: "..."

Li Ji looked at Chen Yuan with admiring eyes: "Cousin, you are really amazing, you know so much, you can even understand bird language."

Chen Yuan laughed out loud and explained: "This is not bird language, but the language of other countries."

"Other countries?" Li Ji was confused and curious.

Chen Yuan patiently told him, of course, he had to work on what he said, after all, he had to make it acceptable to Li Ji.

Ever since Li Ji was injured in order to save Prince Yu's heir, Li Zheng, King Yu's attitude towards him has indeed changed a lot. In addition, Li Ji's acting skills are top-notch, and now he has won Wang Yu's trust again.

However, King Yu is also a suspicious person by nature. In the past, he reserved too much towards Li Ji, even more so now, but Li Ji doesn't care anymore, what he has to do now is to get rid of King Yu first.

"You came to Liangzhou from the beginning to discuss with your father," Chen Yuan wiped Li Ji's feet, "It's just a matter of coming here to ask your father, right?"

"Can't you stop saying it? If we are heard, we will suffer." The words were complaining, but Li Ji's expression did not mean to complain at all. Instead, he was smiling. He pulled his foot back, "I Wipe your feet too."

"Be honest with me," Chen Yuan got up to pour the footwashing water, and went directly to bed when he came back, and said next to Li Ji, "Your surname is Li, I've finished reading it, it's all complicated."

Li Ji acquiesced to these words, but after a while, he said: "Except for the third brother, he is too simple."

Referring to Li Geng and Chen Yuanyile, he said: "That foolish man, he probably sold him, and he even counts the money for others. Why do you think he doesn't look like your father at all?"

"My father has so many sons, there must be one who is not like him." Li Ji burrowed into the quilt as he spoke, and said slowly: "Actually, I want to live like my third brother, carefree and carefree. Even if you encounter troublesome things, you can get better with just one meal."

Chen Yuan nodded in agreement, stretched out his hand to pat Li Ji, and said, "There are no troubles that can't be solved with one meal, and if there are, then two meals."

Li Ji: "..."
