There was no perfunctory in that smile, it was full of sincerity.

Su Yangjiao was thinking about the Chen family's affairs in his heart. He picked up a pen and wanted to write a handwritten letter and send it to Jiang Heng's mansion. matter?"

Qian Tang saw the chill rising from the corners of his brows and eyes, couldn't help shivering and retreated with his hands clapped.

If the fourth prince is in a bad mood because of this, it will be a disaster for Chi Yu.

In fact, Su Yangjiao was not thinking about this birthday gift list at all. For him, it would be good to please Emperor Jiang. If he could not, there would not be too many variables with his current status. What he is anxious about is the matter of the Chen family.

As soon as the Chen family was raided, many officials in the court felt uneasy. They had more or less contacts with the Chen family in the past. Who knows if Tianwei will fall on them. It is no wonder that the so-called companion is like a tiger. Almost here.

Secondly, it is not a long-term solution for Chen Tingpan to live in Huawu's mansion. After all, she is an unmarried daughter, and living in a man's mansion who is neither relative nor relative will hurt her reputation. Since Su Yangjiao has never tried to marry her He didn't want to have too much involvement with it, this kind of behavior of living in the mansion was really inappropriate, and he had to solve it as soon as possible.

A drop of black ink fell vertically from the tip of the pen, rendering it into a gorgeous black flower on the paper.

Su Yangjie came back to his senses, he hastily crumpled the stained paper into a ball and threw it on the corner of the table.

He put down the pen holder, and tapped his fingers on the table slowly, without any expression. He just felt a little cold for no reason. After this incident, he realized that there were too few people who could talk to and give advice in the Great Jiang Dynasty Hall. To stand firm, we still need to cultivate some officials who are loyal to ourselves.

This matter is not difficult for Su Yangjiao, he still knows the six books and some important courtiers in the Ministry of Education, but after thinking about it, those people seem to have faintly stood in line, either explicitly or secretly.

Just like Wang Chi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, he always advocated that the crown prince should be established, so he was the king's man from the beginning; and Chen Yu, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, was promoted by the second prince Su Yunjie, so naturally he stood by him Yes, there is also the current Chief Assistant Sun Qing.

Although he has never publicly supported any prince, Su Yangjie knows that he has become Su Yunjie's strong supporter in the later plots of the book.

And what about himself?There are not many comrades in arms, but many enemies.

At this moment, he wanted to save the Chen family, but he still had to rely on the help of Wei Nanxun, such a useless prince.

Su Yunman is different, he can do many things for Wei Nanxun, which can be his help.

Su Yangjiao understood all of this from the very beginning.

Ben also has no intention of seizing the heir, so naturally he has no intention to make friends with courtiers, and there is nothing to care about, this is normal.

He shouldn't mind, why should he care about such a normal thing?

There was a lot of noise from the outer room, and soon someone would come to his room to announce, "Mr. Su, Mr. Li has sent someone to invite you."

"Master Li?" Su Yangjiao looked at the person who passed the door. He couldn't think of a master surnamed Li in the Ministry of Rites, so he asked, "Which Master Li?"

"Li Shansi, Minister of Dali Temple, Mr. Li."

Su Yangjiao's brows melted away, his long eyes couldn't help but bend, he quickly stood up and said, "Please."

-

The yamen of Dali Temple is not far from the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and there is a shoe left alley.

Su Yangjiao was dressed elegantly, only the red tie on the bun was a bit eye-catching. When walking on the street, many women couldn't help but look sideways, showing a coveted look.

He didn't care, and walked slowly. The officials invited by Dali Temple followed behind him, and couldn't help but stare at the back.

As a minister from Liupin Temple, Pei Jie always stood at the end of the officials when he went to court, and it was not that he had never met the fourth prince, but the other party was noble, and he was indifferent and alienated, which made people dare not look directly at him.

However, just now, the Fourth Prince turned his eyes and spoke to him. The most incredible thing is that Pei Jie felt tenderness from his eyes.

Unnecessary tenderness.

Su Yangjiao's tall and straight figure is the most beautiful fairy appearance, and even the red hairband hanging from the bun is jumping and jumping like a fairy.

The warm sun hangs in the middle, and the gentle wind blows.

A poor scholar with no roots, no roots, no support, and no one to rely on, tried his best to gain fame, and then worked as a temple minister in Dali Temple for three years without doing anything. , Prosperity.

Once, Pei Jie thought so too.

Until he really entered the imperial court and became an official, all his ambitions and ideals were buried in the day-to-day duties of Dali Temple. Seeing those Jinshi on the same list, some of them were reused, and promotion was only a matter of time.

But he was gradually squeezed out of the core position and became the dispensable ordinary person in Dali Temple.

He gradually understood that for a poor student like him who has no family background and no foundation, it is still a great fortune to be a Jinshi, and it is simply a dream to enter those core positions.

Just dreaming.

Pei Jie has also met other princes, such as the second prince Su Yunjie who is currently serving in Dali Temple, everyone said he is wise and gentle, and they all thought that he was very talented and could become a great leader.

But Pei Jie felt that in that smile was an invisible knife point, that gentleness hid blood and indifference, and that virtuousness was for others to see.

Everyone in the list said that Pei Jie was too lofty, he was clearly guarding a big tree that he could cling to, but he still thought of this or that, and he deserved to be excluded.

Does Pei Jie not mind?

He is very mindful, eager to be recognized, eager to display his ambitions, and to assist the sage.

When he saw the fourth prince today, he was just a little Si Cheng who passed on the news, just an insignificant person, but the fourth prince smiled the moment he saw him.

There was no perfunctory in that smile, it was full of sincerity.

Is this really the notorious Fourth Prince in the rumors?Is it really that idiot fourth prince?

There seems to be thousands of things hidden in his eyes, and he is definitely not an illiterate person.

Pei Jie was overwhelmed by the temperament he displayed.

The two walked into the mansion of Dali Temple quickly one after the other, Su Yangjiao stopped to make way to the side, and said to Pei Jie: "Sicheng Pei, please go first."

Pei Jie paused, and asked suspiciously: "The fourth prince has never been to Dali Temple before?"

Su Yangjiao shook his head.

Pei Jie understood, then nodded and said: "Okay, then the officer will lead you the way."

Su Yangjiao: "Thank you."

The two walked to the front of the hall behind the government office, Pei Jie went up the steps first, knocked on the door and said: "Lord Li, the Fourth Prince has arrived."

There was a sound in the room, and Pei Jie led Su Yangjiao into it. Li Shansi was writing in front of the table, when he heard the sound, he raised his head quickly, watched the person come in, and hurriedly got up to salute.

"The next official sees the fourth prince."

"Master Li, you don't need to be too polite."

Seeing Li Shansi's eyes, Pei Jie hurriedly took his leave and was about to go out, but Su Yangjiao suddenly stopped him and said, "Please, Sicheng Pei, pour me a cup of tea. I'm in a hurry and I'm thirsty."

After Pei Jie took the order, he went out and closed the door.

Su Yangjiao immediately cut to the chase and asked, "Master Li asked me to come, but is it related to the Chen family's affairs?"

Li Shansi glanced at the door, nodded and said: "It is indeed related. The matter of the Chen family was requested not to be reported to the world that day, so I handled it very carefully and obtained some evidence. I wanted to report it to the emperor, but..."

"what?"

"However, that Liu Yirong suddenly backtracked today."

Su Yangjiao frowned. He suddenly remembered the letter Jiang Heng had given him to King Xun. look.

"Lord Li, there is one thing I don't understand." Su Yangjiao looked at Li Shansi and continued, "Why did Master Li mention this to me? I did plead for the Chen family in front of my father, and I was the one who Tingpan was taken away, but you don’t need to tell me about the progress of the case, do you?”

Li Shansi sighed, rubbed his fingers, and said: "Indeed, I don't need to talk about this matter with the fourth prince in detail, but what Liu Yirong said back is related to the fourth prince, and it is related to the royal minister. That's why I had to call the fourth prince."

"So, what does your lord mean, that Liu Yirong's retort has something to do with me?"

Li Shansi nodded, he moved a little closer, and said in a low voice: "Fourth Prince, Liu Yirong said that he could escape from prison, and it was the Fourth Prince who helped him."

Su Yangjie stood up abruptly, twitched the corners of his mouth, and smiled.

"I help him? How do I help him?"

Li Shansi said: "Does the fourth prince have a guard named Yun Le?"

Su Yangjiao sneered after hearing this: "Of course, no one in Shengjing City knows who my bodyguard is. Why did Lord Li ask this question?"

Li Shansi turned around and walked to the table, took out something from the drawer and held it in his palm, and after taking it, he opened his palm for Su Yang to see.
