"Okay, then you have to treat me well in the future, I'm your wife, I won't allow my husband to betray me!" Ying Jia looked at Li Yuan and said.

"Well, don't worry!"

"I go first!"

"Well, be careful on the road!" Ying Jia warned.

"Um!"

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he turned and left.

After Li Yuan left, Ying Jia sat by the bed with tears in her eyes.

"Li Yuan, I hope you can always be so kind to me!" Ying Jia muttered to herself.

"Princess, the son-in-law is here!" A maid came to Ying Jia's room and shouted at Ying Jia.

Ying Jia heard the words, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Come in!"

The servant girl opened the door and walked in with Li Jing.

"Participate in the princess!" Li Jing said respectfully to Ying Jia.

"Don't be too polite, sit down!" Ying Jia said.

"Um!"

Li Jing nodded and sat on the chair.

"My son-in-law, what do you want from me?" Ying Jia looked at Li Jing and asked.

"Princess, I came here today to ask if there is any idea of ​​marriage between the princess and our Li family!" Li Jing said.

"Marriage? What marriage? I don't have any marriage with the Li family!" Ying Jia was taken aback.

"No marriage?"

Li Jing was a little puzzled, and then asked, "Princess, that's not the case. I think your marriage between me and you is about to expire, why don't we make an appointment first!"

"Marriage?" Ying Jia was a little puzzled, and then said: "I don't understand, the Li family has nothing to do with our Ying family, and Li Yuan, you are not yet an adult, so the two of us are married, it's not good!"

"There's nothing wrong with that! I'm 19 years old, and it's time to get married, and you're 16 years old, princess, and it's time to get married too!"

"I can't get married yet! When I'm fully grown up and an adult, I will get married!" Ying Jia shook her head.

"That's right, but princess, you can't always delay like this!"

"We'll talk about this matter later!" Ying Jia waved her hand, rejecting Li Jing's proposal.

"This...since the princess disagrees, then I can only leave first!"

"My son-in-law, go slowly!" Ying Jia bowed her hands to Li Jing politely.

"Princess, if you need my help in the future, just tell me!" Li Jing said again.

"Yeah!" Ying Jia nodded and sent Li Jing out of the room without saying a word.

"Alas..." Li Jing sighed and left the Li residence.

After Li Jing left, Ying Jia was also a little disappointed, and then returned to the room.

On the second day, Ying Jia took a box of gold, silver and jewels and headed for Xiangyang City in a carriage.

Xiangyang City is the capital of Xiangguo, and also the capital of the entire Xiangguo.

In Xiangyang City, it is also divided into two areas, one is the ordinary citizen area, and the other is the aristocratic area. The ordinary people area has only more than [-] households, while the nobles have more than [-] households.

In fact, there are many nobles in the royal family of Xiangguo.

It's just that these nobles were not appointed by the emperor, but soldiers recruited from various places.

Although these people cannot hold the official position of the emperor, it is a kind of honor. Under normal circumstances, they do not need to be paid by the court, but they are responsible for guarding the city of Xiangyang and maintaining the security of Xiangguo.

Chapter 357 Two Great Powers

In Xiangguo, there are two major forces, one is the Li family and the other is the Zhao family.

The Li family in Xiangyang City controls the military power of Xiangguo.

As for the Zhao family, they are the commander-in-chief of the army in Xiangguo, in charge of the army in Xiangguo.

In Xiangyang city, in a mansion of the Zhao family.

"Father, who do you think we should send to deal with the Li family this time?" Zhao Chengze looked at Zhao Yuan and asked.

Zhao Yuan pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "I really can't say anything about this matter, why don't you let me think of a way!"

"Well, then there will be father Lao!"

"Don't dare!"

Afterwards, Zhao Chengze and Zhao Yuan bid farewell and left.

......

"Li Yuan, is there something important you came to see me this time?" Ying Jia said.

"I want to discuss it with you, princess, and I want to make our relationship known to the world!"

"Announce the world?"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Ying Jia was slightly taken aback, she didn't understand what Li Yuan meant.

"Princess, I really want to get married with you, but there is no emotional basis between the two of us. Even if we get married, I'm afraid we will live in each other's shadow, so the relationship between the two of us will not be happy at all! "Li Yuan said.

"Hmm! That's fine, I'm worried about not finding a suitable partner, and you've saved me a lot of trouble by saying that!" Ying Jia said.

Ying Jia hasn't found a satisfactory partner in this period of time, so she is also very anxious.

She is the princess of Xiangguo, her marriage must be treated with caution, and it is impossible for her to marry into the Li family, which also makes Ying Jia a little anxious.

"Princess, you agree!" Li Yuan asked happily.

Ying Jia smiled and didn't answer Li Jing's words. She still doesn't know why Li Yuan chose her as his partner.

"Well, I agree!" Ying Jia said.

Hearing Ying Jia's reply, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, don't worry! This matter is on my shoulders. I promise to let everyone in the world know that you are my fiancee, Li Jing!"

"Well, well then, just do as you say!"

"Princess, since you agreed, let's get married as soon as possible!"

"Um!"

"Let's talk to the matchmaker now and settle the marriage!" Li Yuan said.

Ying Jia thought for a while, and then asked, "Li Yuan, are you ready for the bride price?"

"Betrothal gift?" Hearing Ying Jia's words, Li Yuan was stunned. He really forgot about the betrothal gift.

"Why is there no dowry? Is the Li family really that poor?"

"Your Highness, you are right. My family's situation is indeed not good, so I have prepared some banknotes. We can take the banknotes to the Li family and ask the Li family to help prepare for the wedding. In this way, the marriage between the two of us will be as smooth as possible." It will not be destroyed by others!" Li Yuan said.

"Well, it's best like this!"

"Then I will go to the Li family now, get the dowry, and then call the people from the Li family to discuss the details of the marriage with them!"

"En!" Ying Jia nodded.

Afterwards, Li Yuan left the Xiangguo Princess Mansion with the dowry.

When he came to the Li family, he handed over the dowry gift he had prepared to the housekeeper of the Li family, and also reported his identity.

The butler of the Li family was an old man. Seeing Li Yuan coming to the door with the dowry gift, he quickly asked the butler to put the dowry gift in the hall.

"Young Master Li, wait a moment!"

"Um!"

Soon, the butler of the Li family came out and began to greet the guests and ask them to prepare tea.

Soon, several daughters of the Li family also came downstairs one after another. Seeing this scene, Li Yuan felt a little excited.

It was the first time for him to see such a beautiful woman as Princess Xiangguo, and at a glance, he couldn't get tired of looking at it, and his heart beat faster.

"Princess, I have already placed the dowry here. When will you be free to return to Li's house with me to discuss our marriage?" Li Yuan asked.

"I still have some things to do, see if we are discussing this matter another day!"

Li Yuan felt a little disappointed when he heard Ying Jia's words, and then asked, "Princess, whenever you have time, let's discuss the marriage!"

"it is good!"

"By the way, I heard that a princess came to Xiangguo recently. Her appearance is unparalleled. Our Li family and Princess Xiangguo also have a marriage contract. If you are willing to marry the princess of Xiangguo, then our two families will marry each other. I believe people in Xiangguo will be very happy, how do you like it?"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Ying Jia was a little surprised.

Originally, she just planned to perfunctory Li Yuan, but she didn't expect Li Yuan to be really interested in her.

"This... I'd better think about it!" Ying Jia said hesitantly.

"Princess, this is your honor. I think everyone in Xiangguo will be happy for the princess's marriage!" Li Yuan said with a smile.

Ying Jia nodded and stopped talking.

She has a thin skin, so it's not easy to directly agree to Li Yuan. After all, the two families have a marriage contract, so she can't directly decide her life's affairs like this.

After a while, the housekeeper of the Li family brought a man to the Li mansion. This man, with delicate features and delicate features, gave people a gentle and refined feeling. Moreover, his temperament was very elegant, giving people a gentle and refined feeling.

"Master, this young master of the Li family is Li Yuan, the future son-in-law of our Li family. His martial arts are very powerful!" The butler introduced Li Yuan respectfully.

"Hehe, hello, my name is Li Yuan, you can call me A Yuan!" Li Yuan stretched out his hand with a smile, and said to Li Yuan.

"Hello!" Li Yuan responded.

"Li Yuan, I heard that a lot of things have happened in your family recently, and our Li family also has some help. See if our two families can get married!" Li Yuan said.

"Marriage? What do you mean by that?"

"It means that our two families will marry each other for mutual benefit, common development and common progress!"

"Hehe, are you negotiating with me to marry you?" Li Yuan asked jokingly.

"Yes, you can understand it that way!" Li Yuan said.

"Oh, that's it, then I'll think about it!" Li Yuan said lightly.

"Think about it, you have to think about it, if you don't think about it, there will be no chance, because our Li family has a marriage with the royal family of Xiangguo, and this time, my parents specially recommended you to His Majesty, I asked you to come to Xiangguo to propose marriage, but unfortunately you refused!" Li Yuan said with a smile.

"You mean Li Hong, the head of the Li family?" Ying Jia asked.

"right!"

"Did you make a mistake? How could Li Hong marry his daughter to an ordinary person?" Ying Jia frowned.

The Li family is very powerful in the Li family, and they are also a direct branch of the Li family. Such a branch is very famous in the entire Xiangyang City.

Chapter 358 Request Marriage

Li Yuan's father, Li Hong, is the son-in-law of the state of Xiang, and his younger sister is the eldest princess of the state of Xiang. She is also well-known in the state of Xiang. In the state of Xiang, Li Yuan is a very outstanding young hero.

And his parents also hold official positions in the court, and Li Hong's official rank above the court is not low.

Therefore, Li Hong's identity and background are good. With such an identity and background, how could he marry his daughter to a commoner.

"Of course it was our Li family who took the initiative to ask His Majesty for marriage, and Princess Xiangguo also agreed. As long as our two families get married, we can develop together." Li Yuan explained.

"Why did Li Hong agree?" Ying Jia asked suspiciously.

"Princess Xiangguo is my father's niece. Although my father's official position is not high, it is not low. Therefore, my father has a lot of power in the court!"

"Furthermore, the Li family is also the ancestral home of Princess Xiangguo. With such a relationship, the marriage between my father and Princess Xiangguo can strengthen the marriage between Princess Xiangguo and our two families."

"I see, Li Yuan, you are so smart!" Ying Jia praised.

"I'm sorry, I'm not so smart!" Li Yuan said modestly.

"Okay, I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I'll take my leave!"

"Okay, take your time, princess. In the future, our two families will continue to cooperate and develop together if we have the opportunity!" Li Yuan said with a smile.
