The next second, Emperor Qing glared and reprimanded,
"You're a good-for-nothing who doesn't study! I told you to read more, and you come up with these flattering words?!"
“……”
If it had been the old Fourth before,
he would have probably been scared and fainted.
But Li Cheng Lin, who had read the original work of Qing Yu Nian,
understood Emperor Qing's personality and wasn't fazed at all!
He knew this cheap old dad was someone who didn't mean what he said,
he might be angry on the surface,
but secretly he was probably enjoying the flattery just now!
So,
Li Cheng Lin not only didn't apologize, but he spoke with righteous indignation,
"Father, you are wronging your son!"
"Every word I said came from the heart, sincere and genuine, from the bottom of my heart. You are the greatest and wisest emperor in my eyes, and the best father in the world!"
"My admiration for you is like the biggest river here, endless and flowing!"
"My heart is as clear as heaven and earth, as bright as the sun and moon!"
Li Cheng Lin's posture was one of telling the truth, with a clear conscience!
"6666, this streamer's flattery is just flowing out of his mouth!"
"Hilarious, Emperor Qing won't really slap the streamer to death, right?"
"No way, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a prince who was executed for being too sweet-tongued, haha!"
"I used to scoff at it, but now I'm learning frame by frame!"
"This guy's cheek, terrifying, he'll achieve great things in the future!"
"Hahaha, the streamer's cheek is really thick, we have the Tiger of the West, and now we have Li Cheng Lin of the Great Qing!"
“……”
【Happiness Value +1+1+1+1…】
【Ding, Host has acquired passive skill: My Cheek is the Most Precious】
【PS: When someone wants to slap your face, you can passively dodge 100% of the time】
Tsk tsk tsk,
this reward,
sounds a bit strange!
However,
Li Cheng Lin didn't mind,
he silently counted in his heart,
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
Just as he counted to three,
he heard laughter coming from Emperor Qing.
"You old Fourth, I really didn't realize you were so eloquent!"
Emperor Qing laughed and scolded,
"Get up!"
"You didn't just come to see me to say these things, did you?"
"Hehe, Father, you are indeed perceptive, you can see through my thoughts!"
Li Cheng Lin got up from the ground,
grinning and scratching his head,
but,
he still didn't mention the money,
because Li Cheng Lin felt,
the atmosphere wasn't right yet,
asking for money now,
might get rejected,
and once rejected,
it wouldn't be easy to bring it up again!
So,
he had to wait until Emperor Qing was ready to accept his request, then ask for money!
Therefore,
Li Cheng Lin walked in front of Emperor Qing, and with a click, he squatted down!
"Father, your son is ashamed!"
Li Cheng Lin said.
Emperor Qing: "???"
Eunuch Hou: "???"
Live Stream: "???"
"Why are you ashamed?"
Emperor Qing was surprised.
"Father, your son heard a touching story from the common people yesterday!"
Li Cheng Lin lowered his head,
poked his eyes hard,
his eyes red as he looked at Emperor Qing and said,
"The story says that there was a filial son in the common people, whose father wanted to eat a big carp. However, it was freezing cold, and the river was frozen solid, making fishing impossible…"
"So, the filial son lay on the ice, using his body heat to melt a hole in the ice, and caught a carp from the hole!"
"Such filial piety, it moves heaven and earth. I heard this story, and I am ashamed!"
"I have been under the royal grace since I was young, but I have never fulfilled my duty as a son, nor have I been filial to my father… woo woo woo!"
Sss!
Poking your eye is really painful,
Li Cheng Lin was in so much pain that he cried,
"So, last night I didn't sleep a wink, I just thought about coming to the palace today to show my filial piety to my father!"
"Please let me, give you a leg massage, and a shoulder rub!"
There is no father in the world,
who can refuse their son's filial piety,
not even the heartless imperial family!
Emperor Qing was cold-hearted, and he didn't value family ties, but now Li Cheng Lin's filial piety made him feel something he had never felt before.
After the surprise,
Emperor Qing's eyes softened noticeably.
"Lying on the ice to catch a carp…"
"What a good story!"
"You can feel filial piety from it, I am very pleased!"
Emperor Qing suddenly felt a bit sentimental.
He had many sons,
but this was the first time a son had voluntarily offered to give him a leg massage and shoulder rub!
"Aiya, Fourth Prince, don't be disrespectful…"
Eunuch Hou quickly reminded him.
"It's fine, let him massage me, there are no outsiders here!"
It turned out that while Emperor Qing was lost in thought,
Li Cheng Lin had already, without hesitation,
climbed onto the low couch,
and started sitting behind Emperor Qing, massaging his shoulders.
This action,
could be considered quite presumptuous,
but Emperor Qing had no objections, instead he closed his eyes and enjoyed this rare family moment.
Li Cheng Lin massaged the left,
then massaged the right,
he also patted Emperor Qing's neck a few times,
so scared that Eunuch Hou didn't dare to look.
A moment later,
Li Cheng Lin intentionally lightened his touch.
Emperor Qing immediately noticed, and he said with a pout,
"Your hands must be tired from massaging!"
"They're not tired!"
"Alright, I feel your filial piety!"
"Get down!"
Emperor Qing was a genuine Grandmaster, and Li Cheng Lin's few massages had no real effect.
"Alright…"
Li Cheng Lin finally got off the couch,
looking at Emperor Qing's eyes full of gentleness,
he felt that the atmosphere was finally right,
Li Cheng Lin suddenly bowed again,
"Father, your son has one more thing he wishes to ask your permission for!"
"Speak!"
"Your son, wants to leave the palace!"
"Ah?"
Emperor Qing was stunned, he thought Li Cheng Lin would take the opportunity to make some request, but it was just to leave the palace.
"You want to leave the palace, go ahead, you don't need to report it!"
Emperor Qing said,
He finished,
and saw Li Cheng Lin looking ashamed.
"What's wrong?"
Emperor Qing stretched his neck and leaned forward to see Li Cheng Lin's ashamed face.
"Father, traveling outside the palace requires money… but your son is a bit short on cash!"
Li Cheng Lin's words,
made Emperor Qing stunned on the spot,
Eunuch Hou also widened his eyes!
He suddenly remembered that when Li Cheng Lin came in just now, he asked him if the Emperor had any banknotes…
Goodness!
It turned out that,
the Fourth Prince was really here to ask the Emperor for money!
This audacity is too big!!
