Cultivating Immortality, Starts with Green Plum

Chapter 476 Just watch the show
"Hey, how come Mr. Zheng has the time to come to my place?"

Prince Yan's Mansion.

King Wu Dengmin of Yan saw the Dali Qing walking towards him in a hurry, so he hurried to greet him, fearing that he would neglect him.

"Your Majesty, you must be joking. I have something that I don't know how to deal with, so I came here uninvited. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you." Zheng Liu said quickly.

"Lord Zheng, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. As long as I can help, I will definitely help. Lord Zheng, you can rest assured about the relationship between us." Prince Yan looked very generous, as if saying "your business is my business."

"It's like this." Zheng Liu rolled his eyes, organized his words, and then slowly said, "My son was originally staying well in Huaibei, but for some reason, I only learned today that my son came to Wudu."

King Yan smiled and said, "Perhaps it's just because your son wants to see you. This is also very normal."

Zheng Liu cursed the old fox in his heart and continued, "The problem is that my son came to Wudu, but today, he had a conflict with the Jinyiwei and was captured by the Jinyiwei. What should I do?"

"Eh?"

Wu Dengmin looked at Zheng Liu in disbelief.

"Your Excellency was captured by the Imperial Guards? That's really troublesome. You and I both know what the Imperial Guards look like. I'm afraid this matter won't be easy to handle."

"That's true." Zheng Liu nodded, "So I can only come to ask for help from you, King Yan."

Wu Dengmin nodded: "I wonder what crime the noble young master has committed?"

Zheng Liu swallowed his saliva and said, "Snatching a woman by force."

Wu Dengmin: “.”

Wu Dengmin looked at Zheng Liu with a half-smile: "Master Zheng, you also know that even Xu Zheng from Xu State Mansion is very honest in the imperial capital. Even if he flirts with a decent woman, he can only lose the village in the suburbs.

Eh? If I remember correctly, the current Jinyiwei Commander, our number one scholar Xu Ming's mother, was the one that Xu Zheng flirted with and then married back to the Xu Mansion, right?"

"You old fox! You still want to discredit Xu Ming like this!" Zheng Liu was very unhappy.

Of course, Zheng Liu was unhappy only because this old fox had been playing Tai Chi with him, not because he was standing up for Xu Ming.

Zheng Liu had neither good feelings nor bad feelings towards this number one scholar who shocked the entire Wu State and even the world. Basically, they all kept to themselves.

But the King of Yan in front of him was different. In fact, he had always wanted to marry his son to Wu Yanhan.

But Emperor Wu had no regard for his son at all.

"Lord Zheng, it's not that I don't want to help you with this matter, but let me put it this way, I don't have any connections in the Jinyi Mansion right now." Prince Yan sighed, looking very helpless.

Zheng Liu was so angry when he saw the other person like this that his teeth were itching.

But in the end, Zheng Liu calmed down and said to King Yan calmly: "There are some things I want to talk to you alone, Your Excellency. Is it convenient for you?"

King Yan looked around and waved his hand: "You guys go down first."

"Yes." Several maids serving King Yan bowed and walked out of the courtyard.

"If you have anything to say, Lord Zheng, please tell me." King Yan said with a smile. Zheng Liu took a deep breath and spoke slowly, subconsciously lowering his voice: "Lord, my son should be the one who called Wudu, right?"

Listening to Zheng Liu's words, the King of Yan stood up straight, frowned, and said seriously: "Master Zheng, why don't I understand what you said?"

Zheng Liu smiled and said, "King Yan, please don't play dumb with me. In the entire Wudu, how many people dare to go against the Jinyiwei? Not to mention that Mr. Xu is now at the peak of his career.

I admit that that gentleman was indeed kind to me, and I was able to have the position I have today absolutely thanks to that gentleman.

Jingzhao Prefecture and our Dali Temple also have a close relationship. Originally, many people in Jingzhao Prefecture complained about Jinyifu.

The Jinyi Mansion divided their powers, so even if a conflict occurred in this matter, people would not feel it was a surprise.

But King Yan, this is my only son. That gentleman did this without my consent. Isn't it a bit too much?"

"Hehehe..."

Prince Yan changed his expression and looked at Zheng Liu with a smile.

"Since you have made it clear, Lord Zheng, I will not beat around the bush with you any more.

Indeed, your son was the one who was called to Wudu by that adult.

And everything that is happening now is the result of a trap set by that person.

Just as you said, you are in the position you are in today entirely thanks to that adult.

Over the years, that gentleman has never asked you for anything, and now is the time for you to repay him."

King Yan patted Zheng Liu on the shoulder and said, "Don't even think about resisting. Since that lord allowed you to sit in your current position, he must have the means to get you out of this position immediately.

It's just a son. Don't ruin your bright future.

If I remember correctly, you should have quite a few illegitimate children out there, right?
It's just that the tigress in your home is too fierce, and you don't dare to let her know. "

Zheng Liu: “…”

Prince Yan turned around and continued to trim the flowers and plants in the yard with scissors: "It's getting late, hurry to Jinyi Mansion. If you go too late and delay that master's business, it will be difficult to handle."

Zheng Liu stood there, clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and slowly unclenched his fists. As if accepting his fate, he said to King Yan, "I understand. I will go to the Jinyi Mansion right away. But may I ask King Yan, what exactly does that gentleman want me to do?"

The King of Yan said without even turning his head: "It's very simple. You love your son dearly. You only have this one son, and you want to save him with all your heart. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zheng Liu: “…”

"Don't worry, you will be fine, and your official hat will be fine too. This matter also involves one of our great national pillars."

King Yan smiled, and with a "click" of the scissors in his hand, he cut a flower to the ground.

King Yan squatted down, picked up the orchid, and sniffed it:
"This time, we have to watch the show carefully to see whether it is that Lord Xu's head that is harder, or this great pillar's fist that is harder."
