When he arrived at the living room of Xiufang, Bai Chen realized that the person who came to see him was Li Yucheng, whom he had some friendship with.
In Bai Chen’s impression, Li Yucheng was graceful, elegant, knowledgeable, and approachable.
Bai Chen can attach almost all positive comments to Li Yucheng, especially in front of Bai Chen, Li Yucheng is a model of a humble gentleman.
"Brother Bai, Li is polite." Li Yucheng took the lead in saluting with clasped fists.
"Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your style has not diminished." Bai Chen teased with a hint of jealousy.
"Brother Bai was joking. In terms of style, no one in the world can be one ten thousandth as good as Brother Bai. Brother Bai is really famous now."
"For a barbarian like me, my style is of no use. I wish I could have someone as good as Brother Li, where I can drink wine, listen to ditties, and exchange sentences with those men of letters when I have nothing to do. , it’s really a great pleasure.”
Li Yucheng felt uncomfortable with Bai Chen's self-deprecation, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Brother Bai, you are so self-deprecating, how embarrassing it is for us scholars who study hard all day long"
After some polite remarks, Bai Chen took the lead in introducing the main topic: "Brother Li, you shouldn't be here just to flatter me."
Li Yucheng closed his white fan, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Tomorrow is the day of the agreement between Brother Bai and the Qishi under King Liao. I'm here to see if there is anything I can use."
Bai Chen was stunned. Is Li Yucheng really confused or pretending to be confused?
My biggest problem now is that there are two top masters. He is a scholar. Even if his family has some money and power, can he still solve his own problems?
"I'm very grateful to you for your concern, Brother Li. However, it's really inappropriate for Brother Li to get involved in this dispute, lest it be difficult to escape."
"Brother Bai may not know that my family's situation is much better than that of ordinary people. We have trained several masters in our family who have nothing to do all year round. Now that we have this opportunity, we just find something to do for them, so that they will not be pampered all year round and lose their livelihood. capital.”
"Brother Li, do you know what you are talking about? Or maybe you really understand my situation."
"I understand very well. I understand very well." Li Yucheng was still very proud.
Suddenly, Bai Chen realized that he seemed to have made a mistake. The Mr. Li in front of him was not as simple as a rich man.
"My opponent is the most powerful rebel in the world, King Liao!"
"That's just right. I happen to have some grievances with him in my family, and I will never give up until one of us dies. What's more, in terms of power, I may not be afraid of him, a rebellious minister and traitor."
"The only people in the world who dare to say these words and say them so confidently are the royal family and nobles.
Bai Chen looked Li Yucheng up and down. He seemed to remember that he was the master of the world. He also seems to have the surname Li.
"It's just that I have poor eyesight." Although Bai Chen didn't have much respect for the imperial power, he still needed to be polite.
Of course, the more important thing is that the Li Yucheng Li Gongzi in front of him is only his own one-sided words. Bai Chen has no intention of delving into the truth or falsehood.
"Brother Bai, do you think I can be of any help?"
"There is no love without reason in this world, and I don't believe that pie will really fall from the sky. Therefore, I really don't dare to use Brother Li's kindness."
"Haha Brother Bai is still so funny when he talks" Li Yucheng laughed heartily, and seemed not to take Bai Chen's doubts seriously: "Brother Bai is right, there is indeed no love without reason in this world. "
"So I don't understand even more. Brother Li is a royal family member, but to put it harshly, he is just a fool. There is really nothing worthy of Brother Li's help."
Li Yucheng smiled and shook his head: "Brother Bai must have underestimated himself. Nowadays, from the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty to the traffickers and lackeys, everyone knows that Brother Bai is famous."
Li Yucheng still had half a sentence left to say. That's a quote from his father, who is today's emperor.
Whoever gets this son will win the world!
This sentence was said in front of him and several brothers. No one knew whether the emperor's words were a momentary emotion or had a deeper meaning.
But no matter what the emperor’s words meant, the princes could not ignore them.
The change of imperial power is an irresistible temptation for any prince.
"As long as you and I join forces, the world will be in our control. I will ascend to the throne, and you will become the supreme king of martial arts. Why not? As for the ghosts and snake gods in front of you, they are justJust a stepping stone. "
Li Yucheng’s ambition was finally revealed at this moment, and he had no reservations in front of Bai Chen!
One moment, he was a graceful, free and elegant young man, but the next moment he became an ambitious, power-hungry careerist and a tycoon!
"Think about it, why are you wandering around the world? Your opponents, those enemies, even if I give you another ten or twenty years you will not be able to defeat them, but as long as we join forces, these will not be a problem."
Li Yucheng knows how to take advantage of people's psychological weaknesses. What a person in the world does is not to become famous and shock the past, but these things are not a problem for Li Yucheng.
Certain sects have done this by relying on imperial power to obtain these things, and the relationship between the two has been maintained very well and has not wavered for hundreds of years.
That sect became a sect that everyone in the world respected and looked up to, and that sect also solved some inconvenient problems for the imperial power from time to time.
Li Yucheng thought he was very generous. He made an offer that most people in the world could not refuse.
You must know that Bai Chen is just a fledgling boy. His name is indeed very loud, but that also has limitations.
"The so-called public knowledge is nothing more than Li Yucheng's praise.
"At least when Bai Chen was walking on the street, no scholar suddenly rushed out to ask for his autograph, or a girl from a certain family swore not to marry him unless he was the one.
Bai Chen always kept a smile on his face, watching Li Yucheng boasting in front of him.
Throughout the whole process, Li Yucheng was not as low-key and restrained as before.
It seems to be saying that if Bai Chen agrees to all this, he can get everything.
"Okay, I will consider Brother Li's proposal." Bai Chen kept patiently, and finally gave an ambiguous answer under Li Yucheng's expectant eyes.
However, Bai Chen's calm tone made Li Yucheng very doubtful whether Bai Chen would consider it.
"Brother Bai, are you not satisfied with the conditions I proposed? If that's the case. I think we can continue to discuss it. Although I am just a prince now, I can assure you that after I ascend the throne, Brother Bai Even if you want to be crowned a prince and become a prime minister, it’s not impossible.”
Bai Chen found that Li Yucheng was similar to himself in some aspects, and they both liked to talk nonsense. Paint a pie for others.
"The conditions proposed by Brother Li are very tempting, but I know my own abilities. I don't have the ability to fight for anyone, let alone be appointed a marquis or prime minister."
"Brother Bai" Li Yucheng was anxious, but seemed unwilling to give in and wanted to continue persuading.
"Brother Li, please come back. I have to prepare for tomorrow's arena, so I won't keep Brother Li."
Bai Chen didn't wait for Li Yucheng to answer, turned around and left.
Bai Chen came out of the living room and found that Wu Dedao had been hiding outside the living room with a strange smile on his face.
"Boy, that prince's offer is so good, how can you refuse it?"
"The cunning rabbit dies. The running dogs are cooked, the flying geese are gone, and the good bows are hidden. What's more, we are facing the most ruthless emperor's family."
Bai Chen's lack of respect for the imperial power does not mean that he does not understand the ruthlessness of the emperor.
People in the world will always be people in the world. Can you expect an emperor to really give you a chance to become a prince or prime minister? It's just a dream.
"Then you can see the murderous look in that kid's eyes when you left. Becoming an enemy of a prince is the most unwise choice."
"Young master, I am a mess waiting to be cleaned up now. I have no time to care about whether a prince who has no chance to ascend the throne is happy or not. Even if he does ascend the throne one day, the worst he can do is to go to the end of the world. Da, can’t you find a place to stay?”
"The problem is. He won't be so honest and keep you as a scourge."
"What do you mean?" Bai Chen was stunned. Although he didn't agree to Li Yucheng's cooperation with him, it wouldn't be a disaster, right?
"Do you know what your name means to those princes and grandsons now?"
"Could it be that my name has reached the ears of the current emperor? Then I am truly honored."
Bai Chen found out that he forced Su Hong to death last time. It seemed like the fuss had gone too far.
It is good to have a prominent reputation, but there are also a lot of troubles.
“ Take the past few days as an example, there are a large number of scholars every day, saying they are here to visit and ask for advice, but in fact they are here to destroy the reputation of Taibo.
Today, Bai Chen is like a piece of cake, and everyone wants to use his name to gain fame.
"How proud are you?Fortunately, I don’t know, but I know you will be in trouble in the futurebig trouble"
Wu Dedao still had the same expression of gloating over misfortune, and Bai Chen could always find a reason to beat him.
"There are so many mosquitoes that it doesn't itch you, but Taoist Master, you must be careful. One day you meet fellow disciples, and fellow disciples kill each other. This scene really makes people's blood boil."
Both of them have the same moral character, and they say extremely mean words with a smile on their face.
"Don't ever think that because that boy looks gentle on the outside, he is really gentle. In fact, every son of the current emperor should not be underestimated. If you dare to have any slightest contempt, you will only fall into his trap. ”
"Don't think that I am a soft persimmon. If you really push me hard, I would really dare to do that thing of confiscating my family and exterminating my clan!"
"Hehe I really believe this, but now you have offended one of the two most powerful people in the world. I don't think you want to offend the other one. If it comes to that, you will really have nowhere to go. Got shelter."
Bai Chen slowly glanced at Wu De and said, "You should know my habits If I really have nowhere to hide, then I will give them nowhere to hide."
"Why are you so serious? It's just chatting. Tomorrow is the time you and King Liao agreed on."
Wu Dedao quickly stopped the topic because he was too aware of Bai Chen's temper, narrow-mindedness, and unyielding hatred. What Wu Dedao remembered most was Bai Chen's mantra He would be willing to cut himself off to bring down the emperor.
