It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 6 Let’s mess up the wedding
It’s settled, it’s settled?
As soon as these words came out, they were confused.

Zhu Li couldn't hold it any longer and asked directly: "Grandpa Kan, are you going to persuade me to join the feudal clan, or are you going to propose marriage?"

Kan Luotang: "..."

She doesn't even know how to find a match, the effect is really the same as proposing a marriage!

Kan Tianji looked embarrassed and a little anxious: "Luotang is my precious granddaughter, why are you willing to marry that bastard? The main reason is that Your Majesty and Zhao Ci teamed up to make a plan. I was careless and didn't have time to dodge..."

Honestly.

His head was buzzing now.

What echoed were Zhao Huan's words: With Ci'er's current reputation in Linge, what he lacks the most is an elder who appreciates him. Previously, Gu was worried that his marriage would not go smoothly, but now it seems that he finally has a suitable candidate.When it comes to relationships, what matters is the two-way relationship between the two families.

Kan Tianji wanted to explain.

But as soon as he explained it, Zhao Huan would ask: Could it be that Kan Qing's complimentary words about Ci'er just now were all against his will?

Now I can't explain it at all, and if I try to explain it again, I will go in the direction of deceiving the emperor.

"Are they playing tricks? Are you careless?"

Zhu Li frowned, feeling that things were not simple. A gleam of wisdom loomed in her eyes, and she whispered in Kan Luotang's ear: "I don't think Grandpa Kan and His Majesty teamed up to set up a trap for you... "

Although he deliberately lowered his voice, Kan Tianji still heard it and couldn't help blowing his beard and staring: "You girl is talking nonsense. I am Luotang's biological grandfather, can I harm her?"

Zhu Li held her fair little neck: "The problem is that you are too efficient! They say you are eloquent, but if you didn't use your strength, how could the marriage be settled so quickly? It is the opposite of argumentation! "

Kan Tianji: "..."

"Zhu Li, stop talking!"

Kan Luotang was still calm: "Grandpa, is there still room for change in this marriage?"

Kan Tianji was a little annoyed: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. Although the date has not been set yet, before I left the imperial study, His Majesty summoned the Ninth Prince and said that among the princes of the right age, only the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince were still unmarried. Yes, it just so happens that we can choose a suitable girl for the Ninth Prince."

"Ninth Prince? Zhao Yong?"

Zhu Li's eyes lit up: "There are a lot of wild bees and butterflies in Linge City, and Zhao Yong admires Luo Tang the most. If they get into a fight, maybe the marriage will be ruined."

But contrary to Zhu Li, Kan Luotang, who had been calm just now, became worried when he heard this name.

Because of some false reputations, Lin Ge liked her many talented people, and the Ninth Prince was indeed the most high-profile one. She proposed marriage several times to no avail.

It was impossible for the emperor not to know about this kind of thing, but after granting the marriage, he informed the Ninth Prince in the blink of an eye. This was definitely the Emperor's intention, and the deep meaning was probably inseparable from the identity of the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince are not from the same mother, but their mother-in-law and the Queen are from the Zhu family in Jinyang, so they are true princelings.

In recent years, the emperor's health has been deteriorating, and although no one dares to put it on the table, the fight for the throne is still undercurrent.

The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were fighting to the death. They were originally evenly matched, but the Crown Princess passed away due to illness some time ago. The Crown Prince's concubine, who was directly descended from the Feng family in Yingchuan, was promoted to the new Crown Princess. In addition, the Crown Prince originally had a Zhu family background, and now she has a unique position. The support from the two major families can be said to be a blessing.

So the emperor’s behavior...

Why does it feel a bit like using Zhao Ci to beat the prince?
Even though Linge knew that Zhao Ci was a waste, the emperor's love for him was a bit too much, and his mother-in-law and concubine were very important. Not only did they hold a lot of power, they also had the background of the Xiang family in Jingchu.

There are rumors that the emperor intends to change Zhao Ci's position. Although it is unlikely because of Zhao Huan's wisdom, who can guarantee that people will not do anything stupid when they are old?

Kan Tianji helped Zhao Ci gain vassal status this time in order not to get involved in the whirlpool of contention for the throne and to continue to protect himself wisely.

In the end, I got involved anyway.

And looking at the emperor's appearance, he seemed to be afraid that the Kan family would not be involved deeply enough.

Kan Luotang couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

She understands this kind of thing, but judging from Zhu Li's appearance, she probably can't figure out the secret behind it.

"Luotang Luotang!"

Zhu Li's face flushed with excitement: "That guy Zhao Yong failed to propose marriage several times. I heard that His Majesty promised you to Zhao Ci. Now he must be mad. With his character, he will definitely block Zhao Ci's door. Let's do the same. If you go over there, you might be able to disrupt this marriage!"

With that said, he took Kan Luotang's wrist and walked out.

Kan Luotang hesitated and turned to look at Kan Tianji, only to find that Kan Tianji nodded meaningfully.

……

"Huh!" Zhao Ci breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up and stretched.

After ten weeks, the true energy in his body has grown a lot. According to this progress, he will be able to break through the consciousness stage in a few days.

Although the progress is still far behind the average.

But the victory lies in a solid foundation. He has fully understood the content of the Qi Consciousness Chapter. Whether it is the foundation laid or the perfect control of the true Qi, he will benefit from it in the future.

It's time to enter the palace.

Zhao Ci already has a plan for the future. Although it is difficult, it is worth a try. However, before taking action, he must inform Zhao Huan.

Although to him, Zhao Huan is an old man with evil intentions.

But most of the time he also plays the role of "father".

What should I say? Let’s follow my father’s footsteps!

Zhao Ci wiped the sweat from his forehead, put on clean clothes and prepared to go out.

But he saw the maid in the house running towards him.

"Your Highness is not well. The Ninth Prince is here. The carriage is at the door. He said there is a banquet in the east of the city tonight and he wants to invite you to come with him!"

"Zhao Yong?"

Zhao Ci frowned slightly. Although he had never met Zhao Yong before traveling through time, he had many memories about him.

Among the many princes, only Zhao Yong was of the same age as him, so it was inevitable to be compared with him.

To be honest, Zhao Yong's talent is not very conspicuous among the princes, but he is much stronger than himself. It has been less than half a year since he broke through the Qi Consciousness stage. He doesn't know whether he is in the body refining stage or the tendon-changing stage.

He is also quite talented in business. He is currently in the Alchemy Alliance and manages a small alchemy workshop of the royal family. With the resources of his mother's family, the Jinyang Zhu family, the performance is quite good.

You should be able to avoid the blood draw.

Push yourself to the back and dig out your heart, lungs and kidneys.

At least he's an elite monster.

Because of the emperor's preference, Zhao Yong was quite at odds with the original owner.

This person has a very small mind, but he is not a person who has nothing to do with the city. He has never had a direct conflict. After all, how could a royal brother do such a shameful thing?

But Zhao Yong often organizes various bureaus to bring the original owner, and then acts as a hermaphrodite. On the surface, he is kind and friendly, but in fact he is praised and criticized in various ways.

With his efforts, the original owner, who was honest and dull, successfully became an evergreen tree among clowns.

Later, he died of depression, and Zhao Yong had [-]% of the credit.

But in my impression, this person seemed to have not appeared for a long time.

"Why did this guy come here all of a sudden?"

Zhao Ci frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong. In the past, when Zhao Yong invited the original owner, he always sent someone to notify him, and waited for the original owner to come over licking his face.

Why did you take the initiative to drive the carriage to pick me up today?

I think I haven’t had much interaction with him recently!

Zhao Ci asked: "How many people are outside the door?"

The maid was a little hesitant: "It seems that there are four or five young masters from the master, and there are also three or four at the back door. They said that tonight's banquet can't be done without you, and I must invite you over."

Hey!
Zhao Ci raised his eyebrows, it looked like he was coming with bad intentions.

He is now focused on leveling up and doesn't want to have anything to do with these hermaphrodites. He can't compete with them in terms of force, financial resources, and numbers. Why is he uncomfortable trying to get up there?
But people blocked the door and didn't say anything about being reckless or stubborn.

If others don't leave, will you not go out?

Are you still doing business?
The maid said worriedly: "Your Highness, should we lock the door?"

Zhao Ci smiled and said, "No, I'll go meet them!"
