After a pause, Liu Siyuan continued:
"If he hadn't encountered all these messy things, he would have entered the government long ago.
Now, regardless of whether he can successfully take the exam, we can provide him with a space to display his talents.
I don’t think Wen Yanping will refuse.”
Feiyue pondered for a moment and said:
"You can give it a try."
"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you, Guan Yu."
"good."
…
A day later, Wen Yanping received an invitation from Liu Siyuan. The servant who delivered the invitation said that Lord Liu had invited him in person and asked him to be sure to attend the appointment.
Wen Yanping just felt confused and didn't know why the other party invited him alone?
After all, he was a fourth-rank official, so Wen Yanping couldn't just refuse him directly.
The next day, Wen Yanping went to the appointment, the address was a restaurant.
As soon as Wen Yanping entered the restaurant, someone was already waiting for him at the door.
Wen Yanping was taken all the way to the top floor of the restaurant.
It is said that the top floor of this restaurant was booked by someone named Chang Yu.
It seems that the person who booked the top floor is Lord Liu. Even if he is not Lord Liu, he is someone who has a close relationship with him.
Yes, this top floor was taken down by Feiyue.
Seeing Wen Yanping, Liu Siyuan stood up quickly:
"Master Wen, you are here.
Come in quickly."
Wen Yanping looked at Liu Siyuan and became more and more confused. Wasn't it possible that a fourth-rank official was too enthusiastic towards him, a juren?
Wen Yanping always felt that this trip was not that simple.
After Wen Yanping sat down, Liu Siyuan asked:
"Mr. Wen, what would you like to eat?"
"It's all fine. Just be careful, sir. I'm not picky."
"Okay, I'll watch it then."
After the wine and food were ordered, Liu Siyuan looked at Wen Yanping and asked with a smile:
"How is your academic performance lately, Master Wen?"
"fine."
"Will you take part in the scientific examination again in half a year?"
"I want to participate."
…
The two of them kept asking and answering each other like this until all the food and wine were served, and they kept talking about these insignificant things.
Liu Siyuan kept inviting Wen Yanping to eat.
Wen Yanping looked at Liu Siyuan who was too enthusiastic and said:
“Sir, you asked me to come here today, not just to ask about my studies, right?
Sir, if you have anything to say, please speak directly."
Liu Siyuan put down his chopsticks. He knew that this was not a glorious thing to do, but since it was the order of the Second Prince, he had no choice but to go ahead.
Liu Siyuan took a deep breath and said:
"Master Wen, I asked you out today because of your concubine He."
When Wen Yanping heard this, he couldn't help but frowned:
"Please make your words clearer, Master Liu."
Liu Siyuan gritted his teeth and said:
"Someone has taken a fancy to Master Wen's concubine, He, and would like Master Wen to give her up."
When Wen Yanping heard this, he stood up immediately:
"Master Liu, Shu Wen cannot agree to this.
He is a person, not an object, how could she be sent here to be treated as a slave?"
After saying this, Wen Yanping stood up and was about to leave.
Liu Siyuan immediately grabbed Wen Yanping and said:
"Master Wen, don't leave in a hurry. Let's talk slowly."
“What else is there to say?
I won’t agree to that.”
"Master Wen, don't be anxious. Just listen to me and I will tell you slowly."
Wen Yanping wanted to leave immediately, but Liu Siyuan held him back.
The task was not over yet, Liu Siyuan held Wen Yanping tightly and refused to let go.
For a while, Wen Yanping couldn't get away.
