The Lee North Korea was the last feudal dynasty in South Korea's history and ruled the entire Korean Peninsula for 500 years.

In the concept of most Koreans, perhaps because of the proximity, whenever the royal family is mentioned, many people's first reaction is the Lee family, rather than the Goryeo Wang family that ruled the peninsula earlier.

During World War II, since Emperor Gaozong Lee Hee was reorganized into the "Da Korean Empire", the Lee North Korea entered its last period of rapid decline.

In the field of modern historical research, it is generally believed that the last king of North Korea was the eldest son of Gaozong, the second and last emperor of the Korean Empire, Li Yu. Later, the third son of Gaozong who succeeded to the throne after Li Yu's death, was not listed here.

This is not only because when Prince Ying Li Yin ascended the throne, his title had been downgraded to "King Li", but also because the last prince of the Lee North Korea was almost imprisoned in Japan for the rest of his life, and he was a veritable puppet emperor.

As for the so-called "Aizong" temple name that Li Jiu, who was responsible for serving as the head of the Li clan after Li Yin, was not recognized by the public after his death.

According to official records, the blood of the Lee North Korean royal family was completely cut off with the death of Chunzong Li Ye.

The idea that Changshu had other ideas was also implemented very thoroughly in ancient Korea. If it were not under Japan's control, in fact, after Li Yu's death, the Li Korean North Korea would not have had a new king to succeed to the throne.

Strangely, most of the Li royal family's bloodline continued to be difficult in the last period. In official history, Chunzong Li Ni survived without any children in his life. Prince Ying Li Yin had only Li Jiu, a mixed-race son of Korean and Japanese. Dehui's husband suffered from mental illness in his later years and gave birth to a daughter with his Japanese husband Zong Wuzhi. Unfortunately, this only daughter disappeared after attending Meiji University in Japan and has disappeared from now on.

The Lee family in South Korea is a big joke in the eyes of many people. Its bloodline is not authentic, but some people still have a ridiculous idea of ​​restoration.

Li Zai never thought about restoration. This kind of idea would not have been a person with a normal IQ.

However, it happened that his family, the "honest man" who has been meticulous for decades, has always been watched and limited by the open and secret gaze of the upper class in South Korea.

The reason is simple too -

Chunzong Li Gui left a child for himself and the entire Li family, and was secretly sent outside the palace.

This child does not exist in the genealogy of the Li family worshipped in the ancestral temple in North Korea. Only a few people, including Li himself, knew that it was not until later when someone raised the old account, he was found.

In fact, the descendant of the orthodox Lee family is nothing. What’s important is that this descendant has enough power in his hands.

With enough power and sufficient reputation, this is the most feared thing.

...

"Samsung Group has something to do with you?"

When Han Yu asked this sentence, the surprise condensed in the words could no longer be expressed in simple words.

"It's related to our family!"

Li Zai glanced at him with a glass of wine, corrected it seriously in an old voice, and then continued: "Our family has been using the money left by our ancestors since the beginning of the last century to engage in various investments and operations. At that time, Lee Byung-chul, the founder of Samsung Group, actually had a distant relationship with our Li family. He wanted to open a grain processing factory at that time, and my grandfather, my grandfather, invested some money in it. He didn't have any hope, but unexpectedly, Lee Byung-chul, the son of a businessman, really had a good mind who knows how to manage it."

“That is, Samsung has actually not been a pure family business from the beginning?”

"Yes." Li Zai nodded and smiled slightly, "As for what happened later, the interests became bigger, and of course the conflict arose. Over the years, in addition to infighting, the Samsung Li family has also had a very strong secret battle with our family and has always wanted to kick us out of Samsung completely. Behind this is mainly the support of the Blue House. The Samsung Li family is just a simple family of businessmen. In the eyes of others, our family is a real time bomb."

Speaking of this, Li Zai sipped the wine in his glass, squinted his eyes, and looked at the ground in the courtyard in front of the Hanok in a daze.

"In short, I'm a generation younger than Lee Kun-hee, so in recent years I've been dealing with his son Lee Jae-yong. In fact, they've been thinking too much. What we want is not Samsung, but the benefits that Samsung can gain. If they hadn't always stumbling on our family, I wouldn't bother with them and would have just sat quietly at home to receive the bonus we deserved. As a result, now? I guess Lee Kun-hee himself regrets it. The huge Samsung is so big that he's been broken. The remaining control of Samsung Lee's group should be at most half. For example, CJ Entertainment is a piece of big fat meat I tore off them back then."

After listening to Li Zai's words, Han Yu fell silent.

He was silently digesting the amazing news he had received tonight.

Then he shook his head for no reason and said to Li Zai: "I don't care about these."

Li Zai turned his head to look at him again, and then snorted and poured wine for himself, whispering to himself: "It's just like your mother... She didn't want to accept all this back then."

Han Yu couldn't help but frown and asked, "What do you accept?"

"Accept my position, accept this entire family, and accept the responsibility of accepting the stay of our ancestors!"

Li Zai's hand pointed heavily at the boundless darkness outside, and his tone suddenly rose.

His old eyes, which were already a little drunk, suddenly became clear, as if he had never been drunk at all, and his eyes were staring straight into Han Yu's eyes.

"In the current era, even if I don't say it, you should know that our family is a royal family, but in fact it is a wealthy family that has risen again after being ruined. The two words "Royal" means that those old guys, those retainers who always follow us will still value it. Those old guys, you have never seen them, your thoughts are more rigid than my master, and you always stubbornly believe that our family is still the former ruler. When I was young, "Boyal" had been calling me Your Majesty for a while, and after I was taught a lesson several times, he changed his words."

"But one thing, I told your mother once, and now I'll tell you again."

"Our family worked hard to continue the bloodline and manage the entire family well. This is the responsibility of our descendants! Our family is not only our grandfather and grandson, but not spending them. They are the descendants of our family, as well as the descendants of our family. In total, there are hundreds of people. The lives of these hundreds of people are all handed over to me, the head of the family! It is enough to take care of our own people, but we are also responsible to those who are loyal to our family and to the entire family!"

"That's what your mother refused back then!"

"She is a girl. I know that she yearns for an ordinary and ordinary life, and I know that too! But she has never thought about it for our family!"

At this point, Li Zai was obviously excited.

He took a deep breath, stared at Han Yu with a serious look, and said in a deep voice: "When your mother was born, you don't know how happy I was. Even because of the red spots on her face, many people advised me to have another child with your grandmother, at least a normal child, but I didn't agree. Because I knew that if I did this, your mother's future life would only be spent in comparison with others' discrimination. Since this child was given to me by God, I should wholeheartedly

Go protect her. So, I named her "Ta". This book does not conform to our family's rules. But I thought, since I can't give her my surname, at least in terms of name, I want to compensate her. In Korea, the symbol of the king was the sun, and "Ta" was the "moon"! In my eyes, she was my successor... But your mother didn't want to, she would rather cut off relations with me and flee to China, and even to avoid your male lord being known by my grandfather, she hid you."

"If it were a father who really cared about his children, he would not impose something she didn't want to accept on her."

Faced with Li Zai's imposing words, Han Yu answered without changing his expression.

"Escape is not the only solution." Li Zai shook his head, "Even if she doesn't want to, I can choose a husband for her who will definitely cherish her for the rest of her life and have enough ability to bear these things on her behalf."

"A man with enough ability will spend his whole life loving a woman with ugly marks on his face. The only reason is that it is because of love. But are you sure the person you selected and my mother are together because of love?"

Han Yu's rhetoric made Li Zai fall into silence.

Looking at the old man's head lowered in the moonlight and silently, Han Yu pursed his lips, stood up and prepared to go back to sleep in the house.

"Come back...come back to this house."

Li Zai's voice, which seemed a little depressed and firm, came from behind.

"Even if you want to continue to be an actor, I will let you choose. I can leave Samsung's CJ Entertainment to you. Or wait until you calm down and come back to take over the family."

Han Yu's answer did not sound.

Sitting in place and looking at the tall back gradually submerged in the darkness, Li Zai sighed deeply.

He subconsciously picked up the wine bottle on the wooden plate, but his thin palm suddenly stopped.

He shook the wine bottle, and there was no sound inside, just like the empty silence around him at this moment.
