"Why is Mr. Suiyuan unwilling to help Xiao Wang?" Li Tai put down the cup in his hand and looked at Sang Chen with a light smile.

Li Tai sent someone to invite Sang Chen several times, and went again in person, but he was all refused, how could he not be angry in his heart? Even if the world praises Sang Chen's status very highly, he can be regarded as a celebrity, but even a celebrity like Yu Shinan has to give him some face, where has he received such a cold reception.

Sang Chen doesn't know how to 'communicate' in officialdom, he does things naturally and directly, what he does is what he does, and if he doesn't work, he doesn't do it, and he generally doesn't find some reason to prevaricate.

"The weather is so hot, Mr. Suiyuan only needs to send someone to inform, and Xiao Wang will immediately send a carriage to pick up Mr., how can he be so tired of Mr." Li Taiwei brought his anger to his face, and waved his hand to order a beautiful maid to step forward to help Sang Chen wipe his sweat.

Sang Chen's face turned red, and he didn't have time to answer Li Ke's words, so he hurriedly dodged, "Don't dare to work girl, come by yourself, come by yourself." ”

As he spoke, he wiped his cuffs with a mess, and his flustered appearance provoked a room of beautiful maids to cover their mouths and chuckle.

"Mr. Suiyuan, please use the summer soup." The beautiful maid held the cup in both hands, and looked at Sang Chen with autumn 'waves' in her eyes. The smooth white porcelain, the slender hands like 'jade', the fingers 'glamorous' like the peach 'flower' full and smooth nails...

Sang Chen's face blushed to the root of his ears, took the cup with trembling hands, and moved it to the side, away from the beautiful maid, "Thank you, girl." ”

The man from his teens to his twenties is the time when the changes are the most earth-shaking, and Sang Chen's appearance is no longer comparable to that year. After leaving Chang'an for many years, his body and appearance have grown a lot, especially in the past six months, he has transformed from a young man into a man, but he still has no 'female' company by his side, and he is still as young as he was back then, which really makes those unmarried 'female' sons in Chang'an love to the bones.

"Mr. Suiyuan's age should have been married a long time ago, but I don't know why he hasn't married yet?" Li Tai saw that Sang Chen was like this, so he led the topic to this.

Sang Chen's expression was 'pale', "I have a low official position, and I am afraid that I will be wronged in the future...... So when I have saved enough money, I want to marry a wife. ”

"What Mr. Suiyuan said is true, but Xiao Wang wants to give Mr. Suiyuan a good matchmaker today." Li Tai smiled slightly.

Sang Chen looked at Li Tai with a frightened face, and after thinking about it, he didn't know what reason to refuse, after all, he had reached the age of marriage, and he had no suitable reason except for his poor family.

Li Tai didn't seem to see his face, and continued, "Mr. Suiyuan thinks that Princess Qinghe Qinghe and Jinyang are both very favored by the Holy Lord, the Duke of Jinyang is weak and has always been raised by His Majesty personally, and Princess Qinghe Zhenguan was canonized in the second year, when she was only four years old, she was the youngest of all the princesses, which shows the saint's love for her.

"With a low status, I am never worthy of the dignity of a princess." Sang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, this time it was a reason to give him.

Li Tai looked at his demeanor in his eyes, smiled slightly, took a sip of the Fusang drink, and said slowly, "Mr. Suiyuan does not hesitate to hurt the face of the princess, but Xiao Wang knows why." ”

Sang Chen's heart tightened, but he heard Li Tai continue, "Actually, the person Mr. Suiyuan is thinking about in his heart is Mrs. Duanliang, right?" Sang Chen's face was slightly pale, but his face was full of solemnity, and his always gentle and cowardly gaze was a little cold, "Your Highness can't believe nonsense, it's really not a gentleman's act to insult innocence like this." ”

"If you can't be a lady's husband under it, you can become a ······ without a name" Li Tai smiled indifferently, looked at Sang Chen, who pursed his lips tightly, and said in a soft voice. Mr. Sang won't forget what he once said to Ran, right? I don't believe it, with the demeanor of Mr., saying this, can there be a 'girl' who is not moved, whether the two of them are involved or not, as long as he tells Xiangwuhou that he should have no trouble finding out the truth. ”

It was Sang Chen's fault to say that sentence, but at that time, Ran Yan had not yet married, and the man was unmarried and the 'woman' was not married, and it really didn't matter if he "did anything" for courtship, but now Ran Yan has married someone else's 'wife', and when he puts it up in front of people, it has a different meaning, which is to question his Sang Chen's morality, and also question Ran Yan's chastity'.

Sang Chen stared at him fearlessly, "I am innocent with Mrs. Duanliang, and I am not afraid of anyone to investigate." I thought that King Wei was a frank 'dang' gentleman, but it turned out to be for the world to see, please forgive me for disdainful of being in the company of such a villain! ”

With that, Ben Huo stood up.

Everyone in the room was stunned by this sudden change, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to dare to go to the 'door' but were stopped by two guards.

Li Tai raised his hand slightly, and all the people in the room retreated, before he got up and paced beside him, chuckling, "Since you think this king is a villain, then this king will be a villain today, come to the end!" ”

Sang Chen snorted coldly, he knew that Fang Cai's words had completely offended Li Tai, but when he came today, he came to see him openly, and he would have to order it tomorrow, he didn't believe that Li Tai would dare to detain him.

"Mr. Suiyuan, what is this?" Li Tai unfolded a piece of paper in front of Sang Chen.

The handwriting on it is good, but the familiar can't be more familiar - it's his own handwriting! However, the content is not what he wrote!

Li Tai only allowed Sang Chen to glance at it, but he saw clearly what was written on it, it was written to Ran Yan, which roughly meant: Sang Suiyuan is in our hands, please ask Mrs. Duanliang to come and pick up someone in person. The address is written below.

"This king has always loved Mr. Suiyuan's ink treasures, so he has collected a lot, and all the files of Mr. Suiyuan's imperial examination a few years ago are in this king's mansion." Li Tai handed the paper to the guard next to him, took out the folding fan from the >, shook it off with a bang, and shook it gently, "Although Mr. has seven or eight points, it is enough to deceive ordinary people." ”

Sang Chen's face turned pale, his voice trembled, but he refused to show weakness, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Change Mr. Suiyuan's clothes." Lee Tae-do.

The two 'squires' immediately pressed Sang Chen behind the screen. The so-called changing clothes is just to take off his coat, the guards are all rough people, naturally they will not wait for people to put on clothes, they only brought a light blue 'color' silk wide-sleeved robe prepared in advance to help him put it on his body, Sang Chen's weak struggle did not have any effect at all.

"Tsk, Mr. Suiyuan really has a 'forced' demeanor." Li Tai looked at Sang Chen, who was pressed out from behind the screen by the 'attendant' guard, and couldn't help but sigh.

Li Tai didn't mean to be sarcastic, Sang Chen was either a gray 'colored' cloth robe or an official uniform, and he never wore a fancy dress. People rely on clothes, even though he looks a little embarrassed at the moment, but he is still handsome.

"Li Tai, you shameless villain! In this way, don't say that King Wu, you are not even one ten-thousandth of the prince, what if I die, I Sang Suiyuan dare to swear today, if a villain like you can be a king, let me be reduced to a cheap place for the rest of my life, and I will never be able to turn over! Sang Chen blushed and had a thick neck.

Li Tai's smiling face finally changed, the Sang Chen he knew had always been so gentle, a little silly, stubborn, and often broke up with others, but he never said such cruel words.

"This king underestimates you." Li Tai's voice was slightly cold, he thought that Sang Chen was a Confucian streamer, with benevolence and righteousness, and he planned to be poor, but he never thought that he would pierce what he thought in his heart with a word.

Even though in the eyes of outsiders, Li Tai's behavior of favoring the crown prince is disappointing, and he may indeed ascend to the position of the prince, but these are just objective facts, he is bent on compiling books and literature outside, and it would not be surprising if a few people in the cabinet could see his ambitions, but Sang Chen was keenly aware of this time, and he really had to be shocked.

Is it hidden well enough? Or is Sang Chen really capable? Li Tai prefers to believe the latter.

"Send Mr. Suiyuan's coat and the letter to the Xiangwu Marquis Mansion." Li Tai said in a deep voice.

The guards tied Sangchen to the pillar and retreated.

Li Taixun sat on the main seat, his eyes changed a few times, and finally slowed down his tone. In fact, why should the gentleman be so stubborn? Xiao Wang didn't just ask Mr. to do something unseemly, just to make up a book, if this book is born, it will definitely benefit the world's scholars a lot, and the world's scholars will also remember Mr. Hao's. ”

Sang Chen stared at him fiercely, unmoved.

If Sang Chen was really just a nerd, maybe he would have happily responded to Li Tai's first invitation, but there were some things he just didn't want to think about, and he didn't really know about it.

"Xiao Wang knows why Mr. Suiyuan reacted so much." Li Tai was not discouraged, because he felt that he had grasped Sang Chen's weakness, "Mr. really likes Ran Seventeen Niang, right?" In terms of talent and character, you are more than a star and a half higher than Xiao Song, but do you know why she didn't choose you? ”

Li Tai saw Sang Chen lowering his eyes, no longer glaring at him, but he also looked like he was isolated from the world with his eyes closed. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, "Because Mr. doesn't want to recognize the Cui family, because Mr. has no power and no status!" ”

"You are talking nonsense, Seventeen Niang is not such a 'girl'!" Sang Chen immediately retorted.

Li Tai's smile became stronger, and his voice returned to his usual elegance and softness, "Xiao Wang didn't mean to belittle Ran Seventeen Niang, but did Mr. ever think that Seventeen Niang is not an ordinary lady, a clan whose reputation has almost declined, and finally has such an opportunity to marry to enhance its strength, even if Seventeen Niang likes Mr., she can't choose." ”

That's right, Sang Chen has always known it. But······ The person in Ran Yan's heart is not him at all.

'What is love?' As soon as the daughter's son has passed the age of fantasy, she just wants to find someone to rely on, if Xiao Song is not there, Mr. will reach out to Ran Qiniang again, if she adds the affection that Mr. has been waiting for her for many years, she will not refuse. "Li Tai continued to 'lure' the guide.

"Is it······" Sang Chen muttered to himself, as if he was suspicious, but he vaguely understood in his heart that Ran Yan was a decisive and decisive person, different from ordinary ladies. What's more, he is still afraid of her now.

Li Tai calculated everything, and he would not understand Sang Chen's feelings of love and fear for Ran Yan.

"Okay, I promise you." Sang Chen said in a dumb voice.

This is the first lie he told in his life.
