It turned out that just after Liu Delin left the Prime Minister's Mansion and returned to his home, he found Liu Qing without stopping.
"You kid, come out!"
At three o'clock in the morning, Liu Qing was sleeping soundly.
Seeing his father's serious look, he was so frightened that he sat up.
Could it be that I have been appearing frequently in Huixian Accord recently and was discovered by some nefarious person and secretly told my father?
Liu Qing felt guilty, shrank his head, and followed Liu Delin to the study.
"...Dad, what do you want to see your son for?"
Liu Delin had a sullen face, looking around at Liu Qing's overly nervous chubby face.
"Kneel down!"
Liu Qing's knees softened and he immediately slid to his knees.
"father!"
"My son has realized his mistake!"
"Don't be angry, my son will never dare to do it again!"
Although I still don’t know what exactly happened, if I take the initiative to admit my mistake first, there will be no problem!
Seeing his son's guilty conscience, Liu Delin was furious.
Although he is not a wise and powerful person, he is still a dignified minister of household affairs.
You only have an only son at your knees, why do you still look like the mud can't hold up the wall every day!
"What good things are you doing outside behind my back again?"
Liu Qing was shocked.
Isn't it about Huixian Accord?
"Dad, then ask your son to come here..."
Liu Delin snorted coldly.
"That day you suddenly told me about whether to help the Grand Master or not, and about the changes in the court's trends..."
"What exactly does that mean?"
Originally, Liu Delin did not take Liu Qing's words seriously.
This kid is idle all day long, does not do anything serious, and never asks anything about it.
Who knows what caused him to suddenly convulse and say such nonsense!
Liu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this was what he was talking about!
"Um...Dad, my son doesn't care about you and wants to help you more..."
Seeing that Liu Qing immediately returned to his usual playful smile, Liu Delin still had a cold expression.
"fart!"
"You have grown up, have you ever cared about me?"
"As soon as you finished speaking that day, the emperor lost his temper this morning and wanted to thoroughly investigate the details of tax collection by the Ministry of Household Affairs over the years!"
"The Prime Minister is even more determined to get to the bottom of it!"
"Tell me, what did you hear outside that made you suddenly say those words?"
Liu Qing's heart skipped a beat.
Did the fourth prince really get it right?
Liu Qing himself didn't take what he said that day into consideration, he just conveyed it casually.
But never in his wildest dreams did he expect that he would get everything right!
Liu Qing felt a little scared, but he couldn't give Song Huan away.
If the father tells the Grand Master, and the Grand Master tells the Prince, then what happened between him and the Fourth Prince will be revealed, wouldn’t it be revealed?
Liu Qing was so anxious that he made up a random reason.
"Yes... it was that day that my son went to Xiangguo Temple to pray for blessings and asked the eminent monk to tell you a fortune!"
"The eminent monk said that your official career will be somewhat unfavorable recently, and you may encounter some setbacks, so that's why your son said what he said that day!"
Liu Delin's expression was a little shaken.
"Is this true?"
Liu Qing immediately patted his chest: "It's absolutely true!"
"Father, you are an only son. If your son doesn't care about you, who else will care about you?"
The subtext seems to be saying: Isn’t it a little inappropriate for you to deduct pocket money from my son every day?
Seeing Liu Qing's sincere expression, Liu Delin's expression finally relaxed a little.
"Did the eminent monk tell you how to resolve these setbacks in the officialdom?"
Liu Qing's heart was in his throat again.
"Well……"
"This eminent monk really didn't tell his son!"
Liu Delin was a little anxious: "Tell me which eminent monk it is, and I will ask the eminent monk to help me calculate another hexagram now!"
This eminent monk really knows how to calculate, and what he said is absolutely right!
Although I managed to fool the Prime Minister today, but seeing the Prime Minister's stubborn attitude, I will not give up until I get to the bottom of it.
Liu Delin wanted to see the Grand Master, but at this juncture, the Grand Master naturally stayed behind closed doors to avoid suspicion!
This made Liu Delin instantly lose his backbone.
This matter can be delayed for a while, but not forever.
If we don't find a perfect solution as soon as possible, if we delay it any longer, we will die anyway!
If this eminent monk from Xiangguo Temple is so powerful, he must be able to figure out a perfect solution for himself, right?
Liu Qing was completely panicked when he heard that his father was going to personally find this "eminent monk" who didn't really exist.
"No, no, no!"
"Dad, when the eminent monks tell fortunes, they all look at whether they are destined to be good or not, and whether they are a good match or not!"
"If someone is willing to tell fortunes for his son, it's because his son is pious and moved the master!"
Liu Delin nodded thoughtfully.
This silly son seems to be heartless every day and only cares about eating, drinking and having fun.
I can’t tell, but I’m still a bit filial!
Liu Delin pondered for a moment, then took out a stack of white paper from the box on the desk and handed it to Liu Qing.
"Go to Xiangguo Temple to add more incense, and you must let the master see your sincerity!"
"By the way, I would like to ask this master, if I want to resolve the disaster in front of me, is there any sure way?"
Staring at the thick stack of banknotes in his father's hand, Liu Delin's eyes widened.
Darling, daddy is so generous?
This note is worth at least ten thousand taels!
Liu Qing took action quickly, as if he was afraid that his father would regret it, and stuffed the banknote into his arms.
"Dad, don't worry!"
"My son will definitely express his sincerity to the eminent monk!"
Although, I have already promised my father.
A wad of silver notes stuffed into my arms also brought me an unprecedented sense of security and satisfaction.
But Liu Qing was in trouble!
What he said that day was obviously what the fourth prince said to him casually. What if he refused to tell him if he went to him again?
After all, once the "incense money" is collected, there is no point in returning it!
Hearing that Song Huan was at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Qing squatted outside and followed Song Huan for a long walk.
Now that he met Song Huan and felt the huge pressure from Song Huan, Liu Qing became a mute again, hesitating and afraid to speak.
After hearing what Liu Qing just said, Song Huan felt a little funny.
"I have already told you everything that needs to be said. What else do you want me to say?"
Matters in official circles are kept secret, and whether life or death is often just a matter of a thought.
If Liu Delin's obsession is too deep and he doesn't know how to stop at the brink, then no matter how much he reveals to him, it will be in vain!
Liu Qing had already seen Song Huan's calm and sinister side, and now facing Song Huan, he really didn't dare to hide anything anymore.
"Your Highness, this is a little thought, not respectful!"
"Although I didn't pay much attention to my father's official business in the past, seeing him anxious today makes me have a big bubble on my lips."
"Please, Your Highness, please save my father and give him some guidance!"
