Tang Feng did not expect Li Chengqian's arrival either.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to have too much interaction with the Tang Empire's Crown Prince.
He knew that if history didn't change, it would be impossible for the Crown Prince to sit on the throne.
Of course, this was a parallel world, and the history here was different from the history of China. However, there was nothing you could do to change the fact that Li Chengqian and Hou Junji were too close to each other.
Perhaps Li Chengqian didn't have any great ambitions, but Hou Junji and the others did.
Even if Li Chengqian didn't want to be like his father and kill his brother to usurp the throne, one day, the ambitious Hou Junji and the others would drag him down that path.
Fight for the throne.
Since ancient times, there had been great wealth, but at the same time, there was great danger. One wrong step could lead to eternal damnation.
It was because he understood this that he was unwilling to have too much contact with these princes.
But now, Li Chengqian had come. He couldn't possibly reject him at the door.
In the study room.
The sunlight shone through the window and into the room, making it warm.
After Li Chengqian entered, Tang Feng stood up and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
"This time, when I go out, you don't have to treat me as the Crown Prince. Let's just talk about it as friends.”Li Chengqian smiled and said in an easygoing manner.
In terms of demeanor alone, Li Chengqian felt that he could be considered a gentleman.
His words did not have the arrogance of a prince. Just a few words could always make people have a good impression of him.
Fortunately, he was not an ignorant rookie. He had lived two lives, and his life experience was much more than the Li Chengqian in front of him. Naturally, he would not be moved by Li Chengqian's approachability.
"Your Highness, please." Tang Feng extended his hand and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
Looking at Tang Feng, who was neither servile nor overbearing, Li Chengqian's evaluation of this son-in-law of the Li family increased by a few points.
He had seen many people who flattered him after knowing his identity. There were always many people around him who flattered him and fawned over him. There were very few people like Tang Feng who was neither servile nor overbearing and behaved in a moderate manner even though he knew his identity.
The two of them knelt down on the mat, facing each other.
The servant girl standing guard outside the door brought tea over.
"The Crown Prince suddenly came and I didn't prepare anything. I hope the Crown Prince won't mind this tea.”Tang Feng poured a cup of tea and said.
Li Chengqian knelt there and looked at Tang Feng, who had his head lowered as he poured tea. He smiled elegantly.
Naturally, he did not know why, but when he saw Tang Feng, he could not help but have a good impression of him.
It seemed that there was something attractive about this man, or rather, an invisible charm.
"It's fine. I didn't come here to drink and have fun. It's just that I saw you in Hu Yue Restaurant that day and heard your poem. I had some thoughts in my heart, so I came to visit you today.”Li Chengqian said with a smile.
Tang Feng smiled in his heart but did not say anything.
Although Li Chengqian said so, he also knew that this Crown Prince would not be so bored as to run to the High Duke's Public House to find him, this live-in son-in-law, to drink tea and chat.
He was afraid that the other party had a motive.
Seeing Tang Feng only lowering his head to make tea, Li Chengqian could not help but frown.
In his initial imagination, this son-in-law from the countryside would definitely be moved to tears if he, the crown prince, personally came to visit. However, who would have thought that things would not be like that after arriving here?
There was no flattery, no tears of gratitude. There was only a kind of carefree indifference.
It was as if this person had no desires at all.
"Tang Feng, you have extraordinary talent, but why do you want to be the son-in-law of the Li family? With your talent, as long as you're willing to be an official, you'll definitely be able to achieve something.”Li Chengqian asked after a moment of silence.
Hearing Li Chengqian's question, Tang Feng smiled.
"If I say that I've admired my wife for a long time, would the Crown Prince believe me?”he said with a playful smile.
Hearing his answer, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, Li Wan walked to the door of the study room. When she heard Tang Feng's words, she froze on the spot.
Tang Feng's unconventional answer made Li Chengqian unable to react for a moment.
As a scholar who had read the books of sages, in Li Chengqian's mind, a real man would not worry about not having a wife. Any talented man would definitely not give up his future for a woman and become a son-in-law.
Looking at the stunned Li Chengqian, Tang Feng almost laughed out loud.
The Crown Prince actually believed his words.
However, even though his words were fake, if one were to judge it from the ancient way of thinking, it was really possible that he chose to marry into the Li family because he was talented because he loved Li Wan.
In this world, how many talented people would choose to be a live-in son-in-law?
Even if the Li family was the High Duke's Public House, anyone who wanted revenge would not marry into the Li family.
The thinking of the ancients was much simpler than that of the people of the later generations. Scholars, on the other hand, were all of the same mind and had the strength of character of scholars. They would rather starve to death than bend their backs for five bushels of rice.
"A real man doesn't have to worry about not having a wife. For a woman, he gave up the strength of a scholar.”Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment before he glanced at Tang Feng and said angrily.
Looking at the angry Li Chengqian, Tang Feng could not help but sweat profusely.
Fortunately, it was Li Chengqian. If his words were heard by those great scholars, they would probably be so angry that they would blow their mustaches and glare at him. They might even pick up a ruler and give him a good beating. When they were done, they would even scold him.
