Chapter 266

"Is Bixiao still resting?" In the early morning, Li Gong quietly walked into the tent and asked the maid.

"The princess is still resting."

"When she wakes up, send someone to tell me." Li Gong ordered again.

"yes."

Seeing the maid agreeing, Li Gong nodded; he wanted to give a few more instructions, but he was afraid that he would disturb Li Bixiao, so he didn't say anything again and turned around and wanted to go out.

But even so, he was still disturbed. Li Gong turned around and followed the voice from inside: "Who is outside?"

"Bixiao, are you awake?" Li Gong agreed and said again: "I was rude and woke you up before I woke up."

"I have woken up for a while, but I haven't gotten up yet. Didn't I be woken up by Brother Feng? Is there something wrong with me?"

"There's something."

"Please wait a moment and wait for me to get dressed."

"No hurry." Li Gong agreed again, turned around and left the outside room, and went to the tent next door.

After a while, Li Bixiao, who was well-dressed and washed up, came to this tent and sat opposite Li Gong. After seeing the ceremony, she asked first, "Brother Feng has already had breakfast?"

“Not yet.”

"Then let's use it together." Li Bixiao said, turned around and ordered the servants. Soon, two breakfasts were brought up and they ate each other.

"Brother Feng is looking for his sister, what's wrong?" The two chatted for a while, and Li Bixiao asked.

"This," Li Gong hesitated a little. He had something to tell her, but he wanted to mention it when he took the initiative. But since the beginning of his speech, Li Bixiao had always taken the initiative. He felt very uncomfortable and subconsciously did not want to say it at this time.

But he thought that he could not tell this from others that Li Bixiao could learn about it, and he didn't have to wait until tomorrow. After a while, everyone would know it. He could not delay at all, so he could only say it now.

"You all go out first." Li Gong first ordered everyone except Li Bixiao's personal maid to leave the tent, and then said to her: "Bixiao, that's the case. Didn't I tell you before? After requesting the cancellation of the memorial to marry the Great Food Kingdom, I would like to ask me to find a husband for you in Anxi?"

"I did tell my sister about this." Li Bixiao blushed, but she still said calmly.

"I have found this husband for you."

"Have you found it? Who is it? It should be a general in the army, right?"

"It's indeed a general in the army, and you've seen this person."

"I've seen it? Who is it?"

"It's Liu Qi." Li Gong looked at Li Bixiao and said, "Liu Qi is only twenty-four years old this year, and he is only six years away from you. Moreover, he is good at leading troops to fight. He is a good candidate for your husband."

"Liu Qi." Li Bixiao said these two words repeatedly, as if she wanted to chew and swallow them hard. Then she sneered and said to Li Gong: "Brother Feng, I'm afraid that the last point you said is his good at leading troops to fight is the most important point."

"Well, being good at leading troops to fight is indeed one of the advantages, but the reason why he was chosen as your husband is mainly because he was young and there was no high-ranking official in Anxi who was younger than him; even if he was placed in the entire Tang Dynasty, there were very few people from civilians like him.

And you have seen him, he looks good, and treating him as your husband will not be unfair."

"Hmph! If you say you don't treat him badly, you won't treat him badly!" Li Bixiao still sneered, and his words were even more sharp and direct. "You have promoted him to deputy escort, and it just happened that he has never married a wife, so he just used me to win him over. It's really easy to plot."

"Although it does mean to win over, he is indeed your good match." Li Gong said reluctantly.

"Is it a good match? Can you tell whether you are good at leading troops to fight and whether you are literate? You just use me to win him over."

Li Bixiao said, and suddenly cried again, crying, "You royal family members always use women to stabilize the frontiers and win over ministers, and do not take women seriously. The royal family women are like your tools.

It would be fine if I didn’t give me hope, but I could live my life by marrying the king of the Great Food and men. I gave me hope, but it broke it!"

"Oh, why are you crying?" Li Gong was at a loss. Not only because she suddenly cried, but also because of what she said before. Although Li Bixiao sometimes acts a little bit unruly, she is mostly gentle in front of him. Even if she is stubborn, she often laughs and scolds her. How could she speak coldly like this?

"If you don't want to, I will announce the cancellation." He thought for a while and said gritting his teeth. After all, Li Gong was young and could not be as kind as his father, former Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and current Emperor Li Longji; not to mention that because he sent Li Bixiao all the way from the capital to Anxi, and after spending so long, he had already developed feelings for him.

So even though he promised to keep Li Bixiao just to win over a general from Anxi with her, he couldn't help but say that he wanted to cancel when he saw her unwillingly or even crying.

"You didn't come to discuss with me first, but you already told Liu Qi, and even said it in front of everyone, right?" Li Bixiao asked again.

"I have indeed told Liu Qi, and all the generals of Anxi are known to you. Although they have not told the soldiers, they should be spread throughout the camp soon." Li Gong said. Although he said in the tent that he did not let anyone spread the entire camp when he married Li Bixiao to Liu Qi, this kind of gossip is the easiest to spread. Maybe everyone knows it when Li Gong leaves the tent.

Speaking of this sentence, Li Gong felt regretful. At first, he thought of discussing with Li Bixiao first and then telling Liu Qi after Li Bixiao agreed or not opposed; but yesterday, he said it somehow, which led to the current situation of being unable to advance or retreat. ‘If you have such a thing in the future, you must remember it and not say it casually.’

"Since it is about to spread throughout the camp, how can it be cancelled?" Li Bixiao continued to cry and said, "If it is cancelled, your prestige will definitely plummet, and the generals will also be disgusted with you, and they will become enemies with Liu Qi.

Even I will become a topic of conversation between Anxi, from the commander to the people, and discussing how I am. If I reach this point, how can I say?"

"Then, Bixiao, what do you want?" Li Gong thought about it, and he was unwilling to cancel it again; but he had already said that he was not good to regret it again, so he asked Li Bixiao tentatively.

"What else can I do, I can only marry Liu Qi." Li Bixiao cried: "I marry Liu Qi, your prestige is not bad, and the generals are happy to hear it. Liu Qi is even more grateful to you. You will win three goals at one fell swoop."

And I, at least Liu Qi, is a good-looking person, and I am also a capable person, and I look good in terms of face. As for how life is, I will not be revealed anyway."

"Bixiao, thank you very much." Hearing these words, Li Gong couldn't help but express gratitude and bowed repeatedly, looking extremely happy.
