Chapter 486: 209_3

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen such a critical moment to announce it.

In order to win over Li Yueming and the Li family.

This time, the emperor had invested a lot.

There was nothing he could do.

If they did not rope in the Li family, the Great Zhou might face the immense pressure brought by the Qin army’s elites.

As long as he could win over the Li family, he could make Li Yueming and Li Nanfeng the cushions of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As long as he had the two girls in his hands, he was not afraid that the Li family would not be obedient.

As for whether the Li family would become too powerful because of this…

The emperor was not worried about this at all.

At this critical juncture, he really couldn’t directly suppress the Li family’s power.

However, once this critical juncture was passed…

He could have directly sent the Dragon Tiger Army to take over the border.

Before making these decisions, the emperor had already considered everything.

This move was vicious.

However…

Just as everything was about to ripen, a discordant voice suddenly sounded in Wenzhou City.

Li Ruxing, who received Li Yueming’s signal, stood up first and said reasonably, “‘We are deeply terrified to hear Your Majesty’s favor. However, my daughter and sister have lacked the control of their fathers and brothers since they were young. They are used to being unrestrained and have no intention of marrying for the time being…lf Your Majesty is really grateful for the Li family’s contribution, then please let the two of us go to the north or the western border to make contributions to the country!”

As soon as he said this.

Haojing had yet to react.

The entire Wenzhou City was in an uproar.

Many people were shocked by Li Ruxing’s words.

One had to know that this was a marriage problem personally handled by the emperor.

The two women of the Li family dared to openly refute in front of so many people. Not only did they say that they had no intention of getting married, but they also wanted to go to the north or the western border to make contributions.

Such treasonous remarks were no less than dancing on the tip of a knife.

He was really courting death!

As expected, the emperor was so angry that his nose almost went crooked.

He immediately ordered the internal guards to go to Wenzhou City to arrest them. He was obviously annoyed by Li Ruxing’s words.

Li Ruxing was quite calm. He stayed with his sister Li Ruyue in Wenzhou City and did not go anywhere.

He didn’t say a word after he was caught.

Although the internal guards felt that these two women dared to openly oppose the emperor.

It felt ridiculous.

However, he was still afraid of the strength behind the Li family and did not dare to overstep his boundaries with the two women.

After capturing Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue.

Only then did the exasperated emperor realize that he was on fire.

Under normal circumstances, Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue should have been married.

Then, he would marry Princess Qiancheng to Li Yueming.

Then the entire Li family would be tied to the Great Zhou’s chariot.

However, what he never expected was that he had thought of all the links and considered almost every possible accident.

However, he did not expect to be played with.

Although the Li family did not say anything from the beginning to the end.

However, Li Ruxing and Li Yueming had openly expressed their lack of interest in this marriage in front of the world.

As the emperor, if he still wanted to force the two of them to marry down.

Didn’t that mean that his relationship with the Li family wasn’t good? Even this marriage was forced by him to lower his head?

And this was not the main problem.

The most important thing was that he had Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue, the two girls, in his hands. It was equivalent to holding a time bomb in his hands.

After all, everyone in the world was watching!

The emperor had imprisoned the two daughters of the Li family. Would the Li family still behave themselves in the border?

In other words.

After capturing Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue, he couldn’t kill or imprison them.

He would probably have to pinch his nose and send them back to the North.

For a moment, the emperor felt a deep malice.

He was also extremely wary of Li Yueming and Li Nanfeng.

Back then, the old warden of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau had told him that Li Yueming was too difficult to see through. Once he realized that he could not win him over, the best choice was to kill him.

However, the emperor did not pay much attention to this at that time.

After all, Li Yueming was too weak at that time. He was so weak that he was like an inconspicuous ant in his eyes.

Therefore, the emperor thought that everything was under control and did not take Li Yueming too seriously.

However, it had only been more than ten years.

That inconspicuous ant had suddenly grown into a king.

The speed of his growth was so fast that even he felt somewhat unprepared.

Now, he realized that he really could not easily touch this ant.

There was nothing he could do. The other party was involved in too many things. Even he had to treat it with caution.

The emperor locked himself in his room and racked his brains for a few days. In the end, he still could not find a foolproof solution.

This move was too ruthless!

It was simply a drastic measure.

Not only did it shatter his plan to forcefully tie up the Li family, but it also shattered his plan.

He even exposed the Zhou Dynasty’s strong exterior and weak interior under the sun.

The current emperor was like a pig being roasted on a fire. No matter what he did, it would be wrong.

Kill Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue?

It sounded ruthless.

But how should he deal with Li Nanfeng and Li Yueming in the north and the west?

No one could guarantee that if they were forced into a corner.

The father and son wouldn’t be desperate.

At that time, if anything happened to the north or the western frontier…

To the Great Zhou, this was a huge matter.

However, if he did not kill Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue, where would the royal family’s face go?

Even if he did not consider the issue of the royal family’s face.

If he didn’t kill them, how would he deal with Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue?

No matter how he dealt with it, it seemed to be wrong for the emperor.

It was just how many mistakes he made.

At the same time, the Li family in the distant western border also received relevant news.

After all, Wenzhou City was a town in the Central Plains, and it was very far from the north and west.

Hence, it was normal for the news to be delayed.

Li Yueming and Li Nanfeng both showed a terrified attitude.

It was as if he wanted the Emperor to trigger Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue again.

He also expressed that the Li family was willing to form an alliance with the royal family. It was only because Li Ruxing was used to being lawless since she was young that she caused such a big mess.

In any case, this matter had nothing to do with the Li family.

It was all Li Ruxing and Li Ruyue’s own idea.
