Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy
Chapter 227 Turning enemies into friends
Li Rong has also been in a high position for many years, so naturally he would not be frightened by Xiao Jie's few words, he snorted coldly, and said: "Your Highness came here on purpose today, maybe just to scare the old man by scaring the old man."
Xiao Jie didn't get angry because of Li Rong's attitude, but just smiled and said: "Patriarch Li might as well listen to me first, whether it's alarmist or not, then you will naturally have concerns in your heart."
Li Rong picked up a cup of hot tea unhurriedly, took a sip, seemingly carelessly, but kept looking at Xiao Jie, obviously wanting to hear what other bullshit words could come out of Xiao Jie's mouth.
Xiao Jie's heart suddenly became clear, as long as Li Rong was willing to listen to what he had to say, he would have enough confidence to persuade him.
"Patriarch Li, have you ever thought about why my Brother Three Emperors let so many families not get married, instead of marrying a Li family that is declining in the west?" Xiao Jie suddenly changed the subject and asked Li Rong instead.
Li Rong was also very annoyed when he saw that Xiao Jie used the sun to describe the Li family, but he didn't refute it. After all, although Xiao Jie's words were ugly, the fact is true now.
Moreover, as to why Xiao Huang took the initiative to marry their Longxi Li family, the Li family members also discussed it behind closed doors, and finally came to the conclusion that it was precisely because their Li family was in a state of desperation that it was the best way to win her over. At that time, King Qin took the initiative to extend an olive branch, and the Li family naturally reciprocated and swore allegiance to the death.
But even so, Li Rong still pretended not to know, and said calmly: "To be honest, the old man is actually a little confused, and I hope His Highness will clarify."
Xiao Jie suddenly turned cold, and said coldly: "Because you are the Li family of Longxi, your family has a lot of money and food in Liangzhou. If you are the Li family of Zhao County, do you think my third brother will talk to you. "
Li Rong still didn't know what to do with the marriage between King Qin and them, and whether they were the Li family of Longxi or the Li family of Zhaojun?
Xiao Jie saw that Li Rong was still in the dark, so he no longer concealed it, and said directly: "There are only you and me here, so let me just say it straight, the reason why my third brother wants to share with you The Longxi Li clan's marriage is due to your fancy in Liangzhou's money and food, he is preparing in advance for his failure in the fight for the crown prince!"
Li Rong's face changed drastically in an instant. Although Xiao Jie didn't say it clearly, he was also an old fox who had lived in the officialdom for a long time, so he naturally understood Xiao Jie's implication.
Now Xiao Huang is the deputy governor of Liangzhou and the governor of Anxi, and the governor of Liangzhou is his father-in-law Wang Cheng. The money and food are naturally provided by their Li family.
The more Li Rong thought about it, the more frightened he became. Although he was still pretending to be calm on the surface, his back was soaked in cold sweat.
It is true that their Li family wanted to make a comeback by marrying Xiao Huang, but they never thought of following Xiao Huang to rebel. First of all, their Li family has many children in Beijing, once the Li family followed Xiao Huang and rebelled, they would surely die .Secondly, as the Li family is a famous family, the most important thing is reputation, and supporting the rebellion of the royal family will become a stain that will never be erased by the Li family in Longxi. I am afraid that no matter how the dynasty changes in the future, every person in power will be wary of the Li family. .
The most serious consequence is that once Xiao Huang's rebellion fails, their entire Longxi Li family will also be settled by Qiuhou, and the end may be completely wiped out.
Li Rong couldn't help looking up at Xiao Jie, but found that Xiao Jie was also quietly observing his own reaction, he couldn't help but muttered in his heart, wondering whether Xiao Jie was deliberately scaring him with alarmist words, the purpose was to prevent the Li family from marrying Xiao Huang .
After all, the battle between him and Xiao Huang for the heir apparent has reached a fever pitch, and both sides have reached the point of using everything to the extreme, and it is entirely possible to slander each other.
According to Li Rong's perception of Xiao Huang, he has the style of a gentleman, unlike the kind of person Xiao Jie said would not hesitate to fight against the same family in order to fight for the throne.
Thinking of this, Li Rong immediately pretended to be calm, and instead defended Xiao Huang: "His Royal Highness Qi, forgive me, no matter what, His Royal Highness Qin is your brother, no matter what you do, you shouldn't be so malicious Guessing about him, the old man has read countless people, and I also believe that His Highness King Qin is definitely not the kind of person you said."
Xiao Jie could hear Li Rong's insincere words, and smiled lightly: "Patriarch Li can of course trust me, Brother Sanhuang, but he just wants to bet on the future and fate of the Li family in Longxi. If nothing happens in the future, that's all. When that day comes, I just hope Patriarch Li will not regret it."
What Xiao Jie said was a bit harsh, but Li Rong remained silent instead. He also knew that what Xiao Jie said was indeed reasonable. If he really misread it, the entire Li family in Longxi would have to pay for his momentary miscalculation and exterminate the family the price.
After a long time, Li Rong let out a long sigh: "But I have already agreed to His Royal Highness King Qin's marriage proposal. If I go back on my word now, how can I explain to His Royal Highness Qin King, and where should we put our Li family's face?"
Xiao Jie could understand what Li Rong meant, he regretted getting married with Xiao Huang now, but the Li family had no way to terminate the marriage, after all their Li family was also a famous family and could not afford to lose that person.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jie couldn't help but smile knowingly: "In this way, Patriarch Li really needs to thank Ms. Li Wan. If she hadn't eloped with my cousin Sun Chang, I'm afraid the whole Li family would be in trouble now."
Li Rong looked a little embarrassed, although Xiao Jie's words were good, but a daughter of the Li family who had not left the cabinet eloped with someone, it was a scandal for the Li family, and it brought shame to their entire Li family.
"Your Highness, don't mention my unfilial niece anymore. It's a shame for our Li family. Now she hasn't been found, and I don't know whether she is dead or alive."
Xiao Jie smiled slightly, and said with relief: "Patriarch Li don't have to worry about finding someone. Father has already secretly asked Qi Linwei to look for someone. I believe there will be news in a few days."
Li Rong couldn't help being startled, he didn't expect that this matter would alarm the emperor and the Qilin guards, the Li family might be humiliated this time.
But then he didn't know what to think of, Li Rong's expression was gloomy, he let out a long sigh helplessly, and said: "Even if we find someone and come back, so what, our Li family will still have to give an explanation to His Royal Highness King Qin."
Xiao Jie listened to what Li Rong meant, but he didn't want the Qilin Guard to find Li Wan, because once Li Wan was found, as long as Xiao Huang didn't mind Li Wan's past, the Li family had to continue to fulfill the marriage contract, after all, the Li family also wanted face , Can't do things that go back on their promises.
But Xiao Jie is determined to prevent the Li family from boarding Xiao Huang's thief ship.
"But has Patriarch Li ever thought that there is a better solution to this matter?" Xiao Jie asked with a slight smile.
Li Rong is not stupid, he knows that the purpose of Xiao Jie's visit today is to prevent their Li family from marrying Xiao Huang, but he also secretly hopes that Xiao Jie can come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, which can not only save the face of the Li family, but also The Li family can let the marriage be rejected.
"What is the solution, may your Highness tell me?"
Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "It's very simple, if you make a mistake, you make a mistake. Since Miss Li Wan and my cousin Sun Changlang have concubines and concubines, why doesn't Patriarch Li be a man of beauty and make them a lover?"
Li Rong unconsciously showed disappointment on his face. It would have been nice if things were that simple, but their Li family promised Xiao Huang to be in front, and now they have Li Wanxu betrothed to Sun Chang. What is the difference from directly regretting the marriage? It's not the face of their Li family!
Xiao Jie also saw Li Rong's disappointment and embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Master Li, just rest assured, I will not let the Li family be such a villain who regrets the marriage, I will ask the Queen Mother to marry Miss Li Wan and Sun Chang, so that You and my third brother can also have an explanation."
Li Rong heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard that, it would be great if the Queen Mother came forward to grant the marriage, so that their Li family could have an answer to everyone.
Thinking of this, Li Rong couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Jie. Even though he hated Xiao Jie just now, he couldn't help but secretly thank Xiao Jie for helping their Li family solve a big problem.
I thought it was all my fault, Xiao Jie was so thoughtful, and he was beyond his control, and he actually helped Xiao Xun deal with him, and he deserved what he ended up like now, it was entirely his own fault.
Xiao Jie also understood Li Rong's meaning, and his eyes were a little more sincere: "Patriarch Li, you used to deal with me because you supported my eighth brother, and you paid the price for it. It's even. I hope that from now on, the Li family and I can turn our hostility into friendship. I don't expect the Li family to change families to support me in the future. I only want the Li family to remain neutral and impartial. If the Li family can achieve this , I will never suppress the Li family again."
Li Rong also felt the goodwill released by Xiao Jie, pondered for a moment, and nodded heavily: "My niece matter, Your Highness is also a great help to my Li family. Starting today, the grievances between our Li family and His Highness will be cancelled. I will never help anyone deal with His Highness again."
Xiao Jie showed a knowing smile, and the reconciliation with the Li family was a surprise. Anyway, one less enemy is better than one more.
