There were still a few months before Ruoqing's due date, so Li Yi didn't have the energy to think about other things for the time being.
What he taught Qian Duoduo was just something he did casually. It was hard to say whether he could understand it or not, and the probability of using it on the First Prince was even smaller.
Of course, a small probability event was not impossible. If Qian Duoduo had really been enlightened or had been possessed by a ghost, he would have resorted to both overt and overt schemes, forcefully breaking the balance of power between the First Prince and the Third Prince. As a result, some unknown possibilities would develop, but he could not be blamed. After all, he had only done some minor work. He had only taught Qian Duoduo how to do business and had given a few inappropriate examples.
Wanru had been in Liuzhou for almost half a year, and the business in Liuzhou had been on the right track for a few months. It was a little inappropriate to tell the stewards of other states that she was trying to stabilize the business.
Now that the Lantern Festival was over, they were about to set off. The most important business of the Lin family was still in the capital, and they probably had to stop at a few states on the way.
He and Ruyi would naturally wait until Ruoqing gave birth before they set off. They might not necessarily go to the capital of the Qi Kingdom, but they would pass by nearby, and there would definitely be opportunities to meet.
"Don't forget what you said."
When Li Yi sent her to the carriage, she had already lifted the curtain, paused, and turned back to say so.
Li Yi looked at her and asked, "Which one do you mean?"
"Last year you said in two years, and this year it is one year." Lin Wanru put down the curtain, and her figure disappeared from his sight.
The carriage went far away, and Li Yi stood still for a long time.
"She has gone far away, and you are still looking …" A clear voice came from behind. Li Yi turned around and looked at Miss.Liu. Miss.Liu held Li Mu in her arms, and Li Mu held Autumn Water in his arms.
There was one thing that Li Yi always felt strange.
They were both his children, but Li Duan treated Ruyi like a mouse seeing a cat. However, Li Duan was very close to her since he was a child. It seemed that Li Duan inherited more from him …
Li Mu put down Qiushui and reached out to him. He said in a childish voice, "Daddy, hug …"
Li Yi walked over and opened his arms. Li Mu came down from Ruyi's arms, turned around, and immediately trotted out. "Mother, Little Auntie, you're back. Xiao Mu wants to eat candy …"
Li Mu ran away at the last minute. Li Yi was still holding his arms open, as if he was going to hug Miss.Liu.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
Miss.Liu crossed her arms and looked at him.
Li Yi also crossed his arms and pretended to ask casually, "How's the situation on the Wu Kingdom's side?"
"We fought a few big battles." Miss.Liu said casually, "We won but not lost. We've already occupied nearly 30 states. The imperial court has been tightening their military strength, and now they're in a stalemate again …"
This situation was actually within Li Yi's expectations.
In terms of weapons, the imperial court of the Wu Kingdom was not as advanced as Yangliuqing and the others. In terms of people's hearts, in the Wu Kingdom, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess had long become the rightful ruler of the royal family. The current Emperor Wu was just a thief who stole the country. After unifying their thinking and operating the brothels, this was almost the consensus of the people of the Wu Kingdom.
They couldn't win the battle. Only by shrinking the battle circle could they maintain the appearance of not being destroyed. If they shrank, there would be no more space to shrink.
Of course, this needed time. When the time came, Yangliuqing would become the Empress. What would he be, the Imperial Uncle?
That didn't sound good. It was better to think about it when the time came.
He had just received a letter. Elder Tian's body had more or less recovered, and he expressed his curiosity about the Taoist Nun. He said that after the new year, he would come over and get to know Xu's old acquaintance …
Li Yi reckoned that they had traveled all the way from the Wu Kingdom to the Wu Kingdom, enjoying the undisturbed world of the two of them. By the time they arrived, it would be around the time that Ruoqing was about to give birth.
An old acquaintance, an old lover, and Xu. Three people, three grandmasters …
The scene would definitely be explosive …
…
The capital.
King Feng's Manor.
Zhao Xiuwen smiled and said, "Your Highness, in recent days, five people from the Eldest Prince's side have come to surrender to us."
Five people might not seem like a lot, but these five people were the cornerstones of the Eldest Prince's side. One of them was even the Minister of Revenue. Any higher and they would be the Prime Minister.
This was no longer as simple as chopping off one of the Eldest Prince's arms. They had chopped off his limbs. Most importantly, they had made such great progress, and they had not suffered any losses …
In the past, this was almost impossible.
"He knows the Eldest Prince so well, and his way of doing things is different from the God of Wealth …" Zhao Xiuwen shook his head and said, "Could it be that this young master of the Qian family has suddenly been enlightened? Or is it as the God of Wealth said, that he has been possessed by a demon? "
Zhao Yi smiled and said nothing.
Zhao Xiuwen looked at him and thought for a while. Suddenly, he asked, "Your Highness … do you know something?"
"I have never believed in supernatural things. The God of Wealth has nine orifices in his heart. He is a smart person among smart people. Naturally, he would not believe in such things …" He smiled and said, "As for the theory of sudden enlightenment, it might be possible, but I'm afraid it is unlikely to happen to the young master of the Qian family."
"Your Highness, you mean …"
Zhao Yi said, "The young master of the God of Wealth went to Liuzhou a few days ago."
"What about Liuzhou?"
Zhao Yi said, "He's in Liuzhou."
Zhao Xiuwen thought for a while, looked at him and said, "Him? Your Highness, why don't you just say it … "
Zhao Yi smiled and said, "In the faraway Liuzhou, he can control the situation in the capital. Who else can do this besides him?"
"Your Highness, you mean that someone has arranged all this in advance before Qian Duoduo returned to the capital?" Zhao Xiuwen's face showed disbelief and said, "How is this possible? The situation in the capital is so complicated. One wrong step can lead to a different result. Who can do this?"
"Come with me to the Qian family, and you will know who it is." Zhao Yi looked out of the window and said, "Since he has done this, it is not just this step. It is also time to go to the Qian family …"
…
In the Qian family, the God of Wealth came out of the door and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, why didn't you send someone to inform me in advance that you are coming? I could have arranged it …"
Zhao Yi waved his hand and said, "There is no need to be so polite between us."
After walking into the hall, they sat down according to the host and guest.
Zhao Xiuwen looked at the God of Wealth and said, "Where is Young Master Qian now?"
The God of Wealth looked at him and said, "He is repenting in the Qian family's ancestral hall. Why is Xiuwen looking for him?"
Zhao Xiuwen shook his head and said, "It is not me who is looking for Young Master Qian. It is His Highness who is looking for him."
The God of Wealth looked at the Third Prince. After getting confirmation from his eyes, he said to the servants around him, "Go and bring the young master here."
Not long after, a listless Qian Duoduo walked in.
He looked up, cupped his hands, and bowed. "Greetings, Your Highness King Feng and Lord Zhao."
"Sit." Zhao Yi looked at him and said, "I have come here this time to ask you something."
The God of Wealth looked at him and said, "You must answer His Highness's questions truthfully."
Qian Duoduo nodded.
Zhao Yi looked at him and asked, "A few days ago, who taught you the tactic of sowing discord?"
Qian Duoduo looked up at him and said blankly, "What tactic of sowing discord?"
Zhao Xiuwen reminded him, "The tactic you used to deal with the Minister of Revenue."
"I don't know about the tactic of sowing discord, and I don't know the Minister of Revenue …" Qian Duoduo waved his hand and said, "It was all done by the dirty thing on me. I don't know anything …"
The God of Wealth coughed dryly and looked at him. "His Highness is one of us. You don't have to hide it."
"What are you hiding? I don't even know what you are talking about …" A trace of doubt appeared on Qian Duoduo's face at first, but it suddenly turned into fear. He stood up abruptly and ran around the hall, shouting, "Don't come over, don't come over, don't bother me anymore. I have black dog blood, I have black donkey hooves, evil spirit retreat, evil spirit retreat …"
