During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

"You heard that right."

No matter how stupid he was, Liu Kun understood and looked at him in disbelief.

"Brother, is it possible that you are also on father's side?"

Liu Jing held his shoulders, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"Can't you see it? Who can stop what my father did? Besides, this matter is related to the rise and fall of the Liu family. If something happens to my father, how can we be better off?"

Liu Kun pushed his hand away with a stubborn look in his eyes: "But this is wrong."

Liu Jing's voice suddenly rose, "What's wrong? Isn't it just that I was greedy for some food and some money? Which official in the world is not greedy?"

"If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and my father is no exception. Besides, it's not like my father has done nothing practical."

"In the early years, he led the people to build embankments during heavy rains. During the famine years, he ran around to get food for the people. He encouraged the people to raise silkworms and plant mulberry trees. Aren't these his achievements?"

On the surface, what he did was indeed meritorious.

But Liu Kun knew that the truth was not what the outside world rumored.

The reason why he led the people to build the dike despite heavy rains was because once the dike washed away hundreds of acres of his farmland, it would be destroyed.

Talking about the food he raised for the people, the food was originally distributed by the court to the people, and he deducted a lot from it.

As for advising the people to raise silkworms and plant mulberry trees, it was even more absurd. The people did so, but all the silk they woven went into his hands, and less than one-tenth of it was given to the court.

Why did it all become credit when it came to the big brother’s mouth?

"Brother, is father just a little greedy?"

Liu Jing couldn't bear his gaze, so she slowly left her sight and sighed softly.

"No matter what my father did, it is in the past."

"Now that the matter is over, what is there to worry about? Just find out, unless he has done something irreversible."

Seeing Liu Jing's silence, Liu Kun was a little anxious, "Brother, although I have different ideas from yours, I also hope that the Liu family will be well. If my father really attacks the officials of the imperial court, then there will be no room to look back. ”

"It's too late."

"It's not too late, as long as you don't take action, it's not too late at all."

Liu Jing sat aside dejectedly, pressing her entire body weight on the chair.

"It's really too late."

"You mean that father has already taken action?"

"If father hadn't done anything, why do you think the teahouse exploded?"

Liu Kun's eyes suddenly widened, and he was horrified, "Is that explosion related to my father?"

"My father was originally invited to go to the teahouse that day, but he fainted from the heat on the way and was sent to a nearby hospital. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the hospital, an explosion occurred in the teahouse. If my father had not fainted at that time, I’m afraid that you and I won’t be able to see him at this time.”

"Could it be that the explosion was aimed at my father?"

"It's too early to draw conclusions about whether it was against my father. The people who died at that time were all important people in Xuzhou City, and they might have done it secretly. But in any case, the court must have known about what my father did." Liu Kun A thought flashed through my mind, "I heard that King Yuzhang was robbed and seriously injured on the way. Could this matter have something to do with my father?"

"The man was sent by his father. Not only his father, but also other families sent people there. But King Yuzhang was too cunning, and someone helped him along the way, so he escaped."

Liu Kun felt like something was hitting his head. When King Yuzhang first came to Xuzhou, his father obviously had a very happy conversation with him, and even talked into the night.

Why do you want to kill him in the blink of an eye?
"The emperor has always adopted mild methods to attack Jiangnan. At this time, Jiang Qian happened to be in Jiangnan. He would not be stupid enough to cause an explosion at this time. If I am not wrong, the mastermind behind the explosion is The envoy is King Yuzhang."

"No, King Yuzhang will not do such a thing, and this is Xuzhou, how can he have that ability?"

Liu Jing said: "Although he doesn't have that ability, the Ministry of Supervision does. He can cooperate with the emperor internally and externally and let him do this. People from the Ministry of Supervision will provide help secretly. Anyway, the court will benefit in the end."

Liu Jing spoke in a serious voice.

"I have never told you these things before because I was worried that you would think too much about them. I am telling you now because I hope you will not think too much about them."

Liu Kun looked serious, "So, brother, you have known for a long time what my father did. You are even on the same side as him. Why don't you advise my father?"

Liu Jing looked sarcastic, "Do you think I can speak to my father?"

Liu Kun lowered his head. Originally he was just angry, but now there was a touch of worry in his heart.

"Jiang Qian is not an ordinary person. Since he has come to Xuzhou, he will definitely find out everything about Xuzhou. He can't hide, and he is highly regarded by the emperor. If father really takes action against Jiang Qian, we will The Liu family is really coming to an end."

"The Liu family will never be finished."

It was already midnight when Liu Jing came out. She yawned and walked towards her yard.

He was also hesitating in his heart.

On the one hand, I am worried about my brother, and on the other hand, I am worried about my father.

After thinking for a while, he finally came to his father's yard.

Unexpectedly, it was so late and my father didn't fall asleep.

Liu Bian was actually hesitating whether to take action as soon as possible. How should he deal with the anger of the court after taking action?

How to get yourself out?
It happened that the eldest son came at this time, and he knew at a glance that he had just come out of the second son's yard.

"I went to see your second brother. How is he? Is he still angry?"

"When my son left, my second brother was packing his bags. It seemed like he wanted to leave home. I've sent someone to help him pack. It's time for him to go out for a walk."

Liu Bian's probing eyes swept across his face, and he nodded in agreement, "You're right. He has been busy studying over the years and doesn't understand the world at all. It's time to go out for a walk."

"Although my second brother is pedantic, his nature is not bad, and he is innocent and will definitely achieve something in time."

Liu Bian was thinking about Jiang Qian and nodded perfunctorily: "Okay, you can go back after it's so late."

Liu Jing suddenly took a step forward, "Father, if you have to do something, why not let me do it."

Liu Bian then focused his attention on him, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know that if Sima takes action, no matter what the result is, the Liu family will definitely be involved. My father is the backbone of the Liu family. If nothing happens to my father, then I will do it."
