Chapter 222 King Qi's Arrangement

Li Jianye, the son of King Qi, told King Qi about the request of his sister Li Taiping. Surprisingly, King Qi Li Xiang did not immediately refuse.

This made Li Jianye very puzzled.

You know, King Qi has always been a mature and prudent character with a calm and cautious character.

King Qi would not stand out first in any matter, but waited for others to jump out and observe secretly to confirm that he could get enough benefits before choosing to enter the arena.

Knowing the father is like a son, Li Jianye is very clear about this.

All of a sudden, the father's attitude changed drastically, and there must be something hidden in it.

Li Jianye didn't dare to ask questions, so he just stood respectfully aside, waiting for his father to speak.

Qi Wang Li Xiang walked around the room with his hands behind his back for a long time, then he stopped and said in a deep voice: "This matter involves a lot, and now His Majesty's attitude towards the kings is very ambiguous, if we don't argue at all, we can't do it."

King Qi has coveted the position for a long time, but he has never shown his ambition.

But according to his recent inquiries, it seems that Emperor Xianlong still hopes that the prince will have some aggressiveness.

After all, the person who inherits the Li family can't just be a mediocre, submissive trash.

To a large extent, the courage of the king directly determines the fate of the country.

To say something disrespectful, no matter how much Emperor Xianlong is slandered, he is still a master of the emperor's mind.

When he uttered a sentence, ordinary people might not be able to catch it.

Of course, the King of Qi has been thinking about his father's thoughts for some time, which has a great advantage compared to ordinary people.

He judged that the father felt that he was old and was formally considering the successor.

Succession to the throne has always been a problem, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was no exception.

Only half of the princes who were initially established as princes eventually sat on the throne.The rest is divided among the princes.

The capable go up, the mediocre go down.

Succession to the throne follows the so-called law of the jungle.

The primogeniture system is just a fig leaf.

So King Qi must start to exert his strength.

The forbearance of the past few decades is for the current outbreak.

At this time, he must change his previous attitude of not fighting or grabbing.

Only by showing his ability and enough desire to compete in front of his father, can he have a chance to take the initiative in this battle for the throne.

And Li Taiping went to Ningzhou, which seemed to be a pretty good move.

First of all, although the Zhou Dynasty strictly prohibited the vassal kings from running around, there were no strict regulations on the clan women.

There are many things Li Taiping can do with her identity as a clan girl.

Secondly, King Qi wanted to show his father that Li Taiping liked Zhao Xun.

If he could get the marriage bestowed by his father, it would be considered to have completely tied Zhao Xun to death.

Even from the perspective of protecting the face of the royal family, King Qi felt that the possibility of his father's smooth sailing was extremely high.

Judging from Zhao Xun's current strength and growth rate, it is almost certain that one day he will become an important minister in the court and even take charge of his own side.

Instead of waiting until Zhao Xunfei and Huang Tengda win him over, it is better to pull him into his camp now and tie him up completely.

It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.

King Qi certainly understands this truth, the value of the two cannot be generalized at all.

He doesn't need to think about what other people think.

As long as Li Taiping is willing and the emperor pushes his hand along the way, this matter will be completed.

As for Zhao Xun himself, didn't he express his love for Li Taiping clearly?
For the royal family and nobles, it is really not easy for two people to be happy.

"Jianye, go and arrange this matter. We must send Taiping to Ningzhou safely."

After weighing for a long time, Qi Wang Li Xiang finally made up his mind.

"Son obeys."

Hearing this, Li Jianye was sincerely happy for his sister.

"What, father promised to send me to Ningzhou?"

Li Taiping, the head of Yonghe County, couldn't believe his ears.

"That's right, the king father said that he wanted to let the people in the world know that you and Zhao Xun are in love with each other. In this way, the possibility of the emperor's grandfather giving the marriage will be very high."

Li Jianye said in a straightforward manner.

"Sister, you don't have to worry too much. Since this matter has been done for the sake of it, no matter whether the emperor grants the marriage or not, basically there will be no changes. Then Zhao Xun likes you from the bottom of his heart. Yes, brother can see that."

"elder brother"

Hearing this, Li Taiping's face turned red instantly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Don't worry, just do it the way you want to do it. Father and brother will support you unswervingly."

Li Jianye loved this girl the most, wishing he could hold her in his palm all day long, for fear that she would be wronged.

"You are also ready to pack up and leave in a few days. I will arrange some guards to take you to Ningzhou safely."

Regarding the matter of guards, Li Xiang actually still has some headaches.

If it is a peaceful year, I am not afraid of anything.

But recently, it seems that there has been a lot of commotion on Jiangnan Road.

The monsters that had been dormant for a long time suddenly exploded and plundered Ningzhou and other coastal counties.

If it wasn't for Zhao Xun's efforts to turn the tide, God knows how things will develop.

But even so, Li Jianye still felt a little unsafe.

"How about this, I will send all the fourth-rank masters in the house to protect you."

After thinking about it again and again, Li Jianye said in a deep voice.

"How does this work!"

Li Taiping quit after hearing the words.

"If this is the case, what is the safety of the father and brother? If you are in danger, what should you do?"

"Stupid girl."

Li Jianye laughed loudly and said, "This is different. You are traveling far away, and we are in Chang'an City. Chang'an is at the foot of the emperor. Who would dare to stab the king to kill him?"

After a short pause, he then continued: "Besides, there are restrictions in the palace, and it is impossible for ordinary people to sneak into the palace. Don't worry, we will be fine. All you have to do is protect yourself. Go see your Zhao Lang with peace of mind."

Hearing this, Li Taiping was moved and his eyes turned red.

She will only miss it after they are separated. Originally, she thought that it would not be a big problem to be separated from Zhao Xun for a month.

But after the two really separated, she realized that Zhao Xun had already become a part of her life.

The two are now completely one, and Li Taiping doesn't know how to live without Zhao Xun.

She can't do without Zhao Xun, presumably Zhao Xun should be the same.

"Then thank you, Brother Wang. I will ask Brother Wang to take care of Father Wang here. I will arrive in Ningzhou as soon as possible. When I arrive in Ningzhou, I will write to Father Wang and Brother Wang."

"Well, but writing letters is too slow. There should be a lot of second-rank powerhouses in Ningzhou. If you can use teleportation, don't be stingy."
