I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 24: I Will Marry Her in This Life

"Have you heard that a divine being suddenly appeared by the Flowing Crystal River last night?"

"I've heard that the god is the current Third Prince."

"I heard from the scholars who lingered in Liujing River that the Third Prince wrote a poem for Miss Si Lili, which can be regarded as the greatest love poem in history."

"Who is Miss Si Lili?"

"I never thought that the Third Prince would have such talent!"

"Do you know what the greatest love poem of all time is called?"

"Brother, do you remember the entire story of Feng Qiu Huang?"

"..."

Last night, Li Chengzong walked on the waves and recited poems, using his true Qi to transmit sound. Almost half of the people along the Liujing River saw and heard it. With the help of Zuixianju and the extremely high quality of Fengqiuhuang, the news spread throughout Kyoto early this morning, and people were talking about it on the streets.

Noon.

Royal study room.

Emperor Qing angrily threw the memorial in his hand away, "It's fine for a prince to visit a brothel, but he also made it known to everyone. How could I give birth to such a bastard? Because of this bastard, I have lost all my face today. How long will it take for that little fat boy to enter the palace?"

"The Third Prince should be here soon."

Eunuch Hou was an old man beside Emperor Qing. He knew that although Emperor Qing cursed fiercely, he was actually very happy in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, last night the Third Prince was walking on the waves and writing poems, which made everyone on the bank of Liujing River dumbfounded. It is rumored in Kyoto that the Third Prince is a god."

"God man?"

Emperor Qing couldn't help but snorted when he heard this: "I think he is a fool."

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince has not yet been crowned. He is still a teenager at heart. It is normal for a teenager to like women."

As Emperor Qing's childhood playmate, Fan Jian, who was also in the Imperial Study, naturally understood Emperor Qing.

If before he could only be sure that Emperor Qing was in a good mood, then now he could be sure that Emperor Qing's previous behavior was just to show off his son in front of them.

As a father himself, Fan Jian can understand the mentality of this old father.

Judging from the martial arts skills and academic accomplishments that the Third Prince demonstrated last night, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the best among the younger generation in Kyoto.

Frankly speaking, he was quite shocked.

The property he offered in previous years made him dare not underestimate the low-key Third Prince, but he did not expect that he still underestimated him.

At such a young age, he is already a ninth-rank master. There is probably no one else like him in the entire Qing Kingdom.

As for talent… in just half a day, the poem "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix" spread throughout the entire Kyoto and was rated by a group of scholars as the greatest love poem of all time.

Although he only wrote one poem, "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix", it is a poem that will be passed down through the ages. Who would dare to underestimate the talent of the Third Prince?

Not only is he a genius in martial arts, talent, and business, he also has deep insights into military affairs. If he had such an outstanding son, he would also show off.

Seeing Fan Jian's expression, Emperor Qing said cheerfully, "You seem to like that little fat boy quite a lot. Oh, I forgot that you were like that in your early years. Are you two heroes appreciating each other, or are you just birds of a feather?"

In his early years, Si Nanbo Fan Jian was a frequent visitor to the capital's romantic scenes. Even after his marriage, he often lingered on the Liujing River, causing the censors to frequently submit reports to him. However, he and Emperor Qing had a childhood affection for each other, so there was nothing they could do.

Hearing Emperor Qing mention his early years, Fan Jian smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, please do not mention the past, but I do admire the Third Prince."

"Since you admire that little fat boy, and Concubine Qin also likes your Ruoruo, how about you and I become in-laws?"

"Your Majesty, I am still young and in no hurry to get married." Fan Jian refused without a second thought: "The Third Prince is extremely talented, but Ruoruo has been spoiled by me, so she is not worthy of the Third Prince."

It is true that he admires Li Chengzong, but it is absolutely impossible for him to marry his daughter to Li Chengzong!

Why is the poem "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix" rated as the greatest love poem of all time by many scholars? Because even ordinary people can understand the deep affection contained in it.

Under such circumstances, marrying a daughter to Li Chengzong is tantamount to pushing her into a fire pit.

Fan Jian considered himself a good father and would never, nor would he, sell his daughter for fame.

"You look down on my son." Emperor Qing said indifferently.

"The old minister dare not."

Just as the two were in a stalemate, Li Chengzong walked in.

"Your son greets His Majesty." Li Chengzong saluted, stood up, bowed to Fan Jian, and called out "Sinanbo".

"You came just in time. I was just discussing with Si Nanbo about your marriage with his daughter."

"I won't agree!"

Li Chengzong's decisive attitude made Fan Jian happy, but then he realized that he disliked his daughter.

His family's Ruoruo is so outstanding, why do you, Li Chengzong, despise her? !

Fan Jian was angry, "Third Prince, I wonder why my daughter is not worthy of you?"

"Mr. Si Nan has misunderstood. Miss Fan is very smart, beautiful, intelligent, and graceful. She is truly a rare woman in a century. I am not worthy of Miss Fan because of my lack of talent and knowledge." Although Li Chengzong was polite, Fan Jian still ignored him and bowed to Emperor Qing directly, saying, "Your Majesty, since the Third Prince is also not interested, let's forget about this marriage."

It was just a casual remark. Now that both parties were unhappy, Emperor Qing naturally would not force it. He nodded, looked at Li Chengzong and said, "Si Nanbo doesn't like you."

"Well, it's best if you don't like her. I already have a girl I like."

"That brothel girl?"

"good."

"I don't agree." Emperor Qing had a blank expression on his face, and a powerful aura pressed directly towards Li Chengzong.

"Father, have you forgotten that you promised me not to interfere in my marriage?"

Not to mention that Li Chengzong is now a grandmaster, even when he was at the ninth rank, he could withstand the momentum of Emperor Qing.

Eunuch Hou was in a miserable state. He was close to Li Chengzong and suffered the indiscriminate oppression of Emperor Qing's aura. He was sweating coldly, his thighs were trembling, and his legs were a little weak.

Noticing the situation of the two people, Emperor Qing restrained his momentum and said calmly: "I remember, but do you know who Si Lili is?"

"My son knows that after the rebellion, there were spies from Northern Qi."

Li Chengzong was not at all surprised that Emperor Qing knew Li Lisi's background.

Even though Emperor Qing spends all day hiding in the imperial study sharpening arrows, in fact, his control over Kyoto is unmatched.

"Since you know..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Chengzong interrupted and said, "Father, have you ever met a woman that you decided to marry the moment you met her?"

A look of reminiscence appeared on Emperor Qing's face, and one could tell at a glance that he was thinking of Ye Qingmei.

Seeing this, Li Chengzong hurried to strike while the iron was hot.

"I don't care whether she is Li Lisi or Si Lili. Anyway, I will marry her in this life. If you don't agree, I can just wander around the world with her."

"you dare!"

"You can try and see if I dare."

Looking at the father and son who were unwilling to take a step back, Fan Jian and Eunuch Hou both had the same thought in their minds.

——Your Highness the Third Prince is so brave!

After a long time, Emperor Qing made a request.

"She can't be your wife."

Fan Jian and Eunuch Hou were both shocked, and another sentence popped up in their minds.

——Your Majesty is truly gracious to the Third Prince.

You know, since Emperor Qing ascended the throne, he has never taken the initiative to give in, but today he took the initiative to give in.

In fact, they didn’t know that Emperor Qing was not compromising with Li Chengzong, but with his former self.

Looking at his son who looked so much like him, he seemed to see himself back then. He thought of the woman named Ye Qingmei, and how he had once contradicted his father for Ye Qingmei.

The scene before my eyes is so similar to that year.

Li Chengzong was delighted and said, "Okay."

It's a rare opportunity for Emperor Qing to compromise, so just agree to it first and we can talk about the future later.

Emperor Qing glanced at Li Chengzong, waved to Fan Jian and Eunuch Hou, and signaled them to go down first.

After the two men left, Emperor Qing instantly jumped up and pounced on Li Chengzong like an eagle stalking a snake.

It was extremely fast and arrived in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, Li Chengzong was not slow. He floated back, channeled all his energy into his fist, and met his father's fist.

Just as the fists were about to collide, Emperor Qing suddenly stopped.

"When will the Grandmaster break through?"

When Li Chengzong came in today, he felt that his son's aura had changed, so he suddenly took action to test it.

"Yesterday."

"You went to the brothel after your breakthrough yesterday?"
