"Ah, it's Yuyao coming." Li Ji opened his eyes, rubbed his forehead, pushed away the piles of memorials in front of him, and showed a loving smile to Li Yuyao.

Li Yuyao swallowed nervously, and her intuition told her that something was wrong.

"Didn't the father let his son come to the banquet? This..." Li Yuyao looked around the empty hall and laughed twice.

"Oh, it was originally a special banquet for the second prince of Xiliao, but the father suddenly felt unwell and canceled the banquet." Li Ji said it naturally.

Li Yuyao could only nod her head, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Inadvertently looking up, he found that Li Ji had aged a lot in just a few months, especially the bags under his eyes, which made him look tired.

"Is the father's dragon body okay?" Li Yuyao asked with concern, but she thought in her heart that Zhang Mengqi is so cute that...

"It's okay, it's okay. It's just that I'm a little tired. There are many things in the hall, and the border is not peaceful." Li Ji waved his hand, signaling Li Yuyao not to worry.

"Father, please take care of the dragon's body." Li Yuyao said worriedly.

"Father is a bit old," Li Ji sighed, "Fortunately, you brothers and sisters have grown up gradually, and you can share your father's worries."

Li Yuyao was a little embarrassed, thinking that my elder brothers and sisters could really relieve my father's worries, how could I have the ability to say something like "My son is ashamed", unexpectedly Li Ji changed the subject, Asked: "Yuyao just met He Qi?"

Li Yuyao was startled for a while before replying: "Yes. I don't know Father... how do I know?"

Li Ji smiled indifferently, but did not answer, instead he said: "Heqi is both civil and military, and has a high prestige in Xiliao. When I saw him this time, I didn't expect his appearance to be very heroic."

Trying to force a smile, Li Yuyao continued: "Xiliao is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. It's just a rumor after all how powerful Heqi is. In Erchen's opinion, Heqi is arrogant and rude, with a barbaric air. Brave and foolhardy."

"Hey," Li Ji smiled and waved his hands, expressing his disapproval. "Yuyao's words are different. Heqi has made great achievements in battle, and he has a certain amount of advance and retreat in the palace. How can it be said to be rumors. Xiliao is not a vassal state of my Great Zhou. He is the prince of Xiliao. Naturally, he should be more arrogant. Besides, Heche came to the Central Plains this time not just for hunting."

"Then what else does he have to do?" Li Yuyao was in a state of confusion, and a terrifying conjecture slowly formed in her mind.

And Li Ji is verifying this conjecture step by step.

"The so-called "a gentle lady, a gentleman likes a good girl", male colleges should marry, and female colleges should marry. I have taught Changlong in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Heqi has been fascinated for a long time. I came here this time to fulfill the will of the Emperor Xiliao, to ask for a marriage. I married a princess, so that I can befriend Qin and Jin with my great Zhou, and we will fight Liao thieves together in the future."

Li Yuyao's hands and feet were cold, and her mind went blank, so that Li Ji didn't answer her after looking at her for a long time.

"At the grand ceremony a few days ago, Heqi fell in love with you at first sight, and he had a good impression. He has been begging me to marry you for the past few days. I thought that you are not young, and this Heqi is a rare hero, so I agreed. Seeing Li Yuyao's pale face, Li Ji knew her reluctance, so he simply forgot all the pretentious inquiries and told Li Yuyao directly that the marriage had already been decided.

"But, Ke Erchen doesn't like him." Li Yuyao couldn't help it anymore as soon as she opened her mouth, tears bursting down instantly.If it hadn't been for the great panic that deprived her of her ability to think normally, she would never have said such a stupid thing - after all, whether she likes He Qi would not have the slightest influence on Li Ji.Even if you think about it for a while, you can see that Li Ji's saying that Heqi "loved her at first sight and had a good impression" was just a formality. Judging from Heqi's attitude towards her before, there is no trace of "love". "Woolen cloth?

"This marriage is related to the great plans of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Western Liao Dynasty." Li Ji's tone was still gentle, but already carried the unquestionable and affirmative imperial style, which made Li Yuyao fall into deep despair.

"Heqi is not only the prince of Xiliao, but also holds great power. He is a strong contender for the throne of Xiliao. If you marry him, you will be his concubine. Soon after, you may become the queen of Xiliao. By then, according to According to the rules of Xiliao, your son is the heir to the throne of Xiliao. If this is not the case, the emperor can find a daughter of a clan to be a princess, and he will deal with it casually, and he is reluctant to marry you to another country. Yuxuan is too I'm too young, and I haven't reached the age for marriage." Li Ji seemed very patient.

In the huge hall, there was only the sound of Li Yuyao's sobbing.

Li Ji let Li Yuyao's disgrace.He left the imperial case, walked down the steps, came to Li Yuyao, patted Li Yuyao on the back in a way he thought was very loving to comfort her, and said, "Your elder brother has been in Liaodong Town for a long time, it's time to transfer him back to Beijing." Yes. I heard from Concubine Li that your sister-in-law is about to give birth. When you go to Xiliao, Da Lang will take good care of Concubine Li."

"Li, Concubine Li, do you know that I am married to Xiliao?" Li Yuyao was in extreme pain, but even at this moment, she did not dare to express her anger, her fear, and her reluctance presumptuously.

"Of course I discussed it with her." Li Ji's discussion meant "information".Neither Concubine Li nor Li Yuyao, nor even her elder brother who lives far away in Liaodong with her mother, is not qualified for Li Ji to "discuss" with them.At this moment, Li Yuyao suddenly thought, if she were Li Yuerong and hadn't married, Li Ji would be so confident, and she wouldn't give up at all.However, she is not Li Yuerong, she is not a prostitute, she has no brothers to rely on, no martial arts, no military achievements, she is useless, she is just a "princess" who can be sent out for marriage at any time.However, Li Yuyao thought again, even if it were Li Yuxuan who was also born as a concubine, she would not be in such a situation.

Li Yuyao didn't know how Concubine Li would react when she heard the news, but she could probably guess.Her biological mother should be truly sad and in pain, but she will not resist, she will just grit her teeth and swallow her blood, and endure silently.However, probably, Li Ji's grace to allow Li Chu to return to Beijing will comfort her, and it is a great comfort.

"Sister, where are they?" Li Yuyao sobbed and asked, this was the last hope in her heart.

Li Ji patted her head, and said: "I have ordered Yousi to prepare a ceremonial dowry, and they should get the news soon." Finally.Li Ji added as if remembering something: "Yuyao has grown up and should be sensible. Don't make things difficult for your brothers and sisters."

Li Yuyao's hatred for her father grew even more in the midst of her grievances, but silence was the most intense way she could express this dissatisfaction.

"Come on." Li Ji beckoned towards the corner of the hall, and immediately came a little eunuch.

"Escort the princess back to the tent," Li Ji ordered.

☆、Chapter 66

Because today she can go to the hunting ground with Li Yuerong to hunt, Xiao Xueqiong got up early excitedly.

After picking out her favorite military uniform and changing into it, Xiao Xueqiong began to organize her bow and arrows again.The bow she used was specially made by Li Yuerong, not because it was powerful or expensive, but because the ordinary bow Xiao Xueqiong couldn't draw at all.

Li Yuerong packed her luggage early, and now she is sitting at the table, thinking deeply.

"Sister, why do I feel that you have been preoccupied these few days?" Xiao Xueqiong saw that Li Yuerong was not in high spirits, and even her own mood was not as happy as before.

"Oh, it's fine. Actually..."

Just as Li Yuerong was about to say something, she heard Xiaodie preaching outside the curtain: "Princess, someone from the capital is here."

"Xueqiong will wait for me in the room for a while, I will come right away." Li Yuerong said to Xiao Xueqiong.

Xiao Xueqiong was no longer surprised by this situation, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, she nodded obediently as usual, and continued to pack her luggage.

There is still a distance from the camp to the hunting ground, and there is a short section of mountain forests, rivers and valleys in between. Those who are skilled in riding can naturally go there on horseback, which saves time and avoids bumps in the carriage.But for people of Xiao Xueqiong's level, it is obviously more suitable to take a carriage. As for Li Yuerong, it is natural to "marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog", so she also has to accompany Xiao Xueqiong in the carriage.
