For four consecutive days, Dou Kuan rejected Farong's requests for an audience. He looked restless and did not have the demeanor of an eminent monk at all.

However, Dou Kuan also understands that as a man, who can watch his mother-in-law and children suffering in prison without being indifferent, even if he is a monk. If he really reaches the state where the six roots are pure and the four elements are empty, he will still be greedy.

What are you doing with so much money?

It was not until noon on the fifth day that he received the notice of departure from Dou Kuan. Farong, who was overjoyed, hurried over. When he rushed to the yard, he was almost so angry after seeing what Li Chengqian had done.

No vomiting blood.

It turns out that His Highness the Crown Prince is actually playing with some white kittens. This is so insulting. After all, I am also a dignified monk. Even if you hold some pigtails in your hand, you can't be so irritating.

Immediately after suppressing the anger in his heart, he walked up to him and saluted, saying, "Poor monk Farong, I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Seeing Dou Kuan and Farong coming, Li Chengqian threw all the food in his hands to the cats, threw his hands, and said with a smile: "Master, don't be too polite, Yanji, pour the master some tea."

, after speaking, he waved to Heng Lian and Zhang Sizheng next to him, motioning them to take the cats down.

"When I was studying with my teacher when I was young, he told me an allusion from the Book of Shangshu: Playing with people loses virtue, and playing with things loses one's ambition. Aspirations are calmed by Dao, and words are followed by Dao. If you don't do nothing, it will be beneficial, and the merit will be achieved. It is not expensive.

Foreign objects are worthless, but the people are satisfied.

You see, even if I know this truth, I still can't control myself. After all, I am still a young man, and my character and concentration are still insufficient. Master, do you think so?"

Dou Kuan kept rubbing his belly. People who didn't know better thought that the governor was feeling unwell. In fact, it was the old boy who wanted to laugh. If he hadn't been worried about Fa Rong's presence, he would have rolled over.

.You are lacking in virtue, okay?

"Your Highness is really too modest. The northern expedition against the Turks and the western expedition against the Tuyuhun... are such military achievements. Your Highness's reputation is astonishing even to an outsider like a poor monk. A few hobbies do not hide the flaws and are harmless."

The old monk knew that Li Chengqian was teasing him and Ge Hui, both in words and in words, but he was a slave to others, and since he was asking for help, what could he do without bowing his head, so he could only coax them with nice words.

"Master, you are indeed an eminent monk from the Fo sect. He writes articles. After hearing your words of relief, I feel much better. I have also heard from Yanji about your purpose of coming. Regarding what happened to the master, I

Deeply sympathize.

But the law of the country is the law of the country, and the imperial court enacts laws to make everyone abide by the law. No matter what the identity of the prisoner is, otherwise there is a saying that the prince who breaks the law is as guilty as the common people. If the law is not an outsider, his responsibility will also be

Pursued.”

After speaking, Li Chengqian picked up the tea cup and started drinking. Old thief Bald, if you don't come, due to various factors, I really can't do anything to you. But unfortunately, you still care too much about the mother and son.

Already.

Of course, Fa Rong knew that Li Chengqian couldn't spit out those things from the past few days, so he immediately tried to say: "Your Highness, now that things have happened, the poor monk has nothing to hide. Both Ge Hui and his son did it before the poor monk became a monk.

of evil fate.

After so many years of Zen practice and enlightenment of Taoism, I have yet to fully understand the truth of Buddhism. If Your Highness can be more tolerant, the poor monks and old friends in the court will definitely be grateful for your kindness.

As for the grudge between His Highness and Webster, I don’t want to get involved and I don’t dare to get involved. Fazhi and the others did what happened this time without telling me.”

"In order to forgive that evil beast, the poor monk is willing to donate a batch of money and food for His Highness to use for disaster relief. If Your Highness has any other conditions, please feel free to ask. As long as the poor monk can do it, he will definitely do his best.

"

Although the old monk spoke humbly, he still put on the airs of being a Buddhist monk and put forward conditions for exchange with Li Chengqian.

Of course, he also said that he had many old friends. If Li Chengqian didn't buy it, he could find someone else to mediate, so he suggested that Li Chengqian just accept it as soon as possible.

Li Chengqian was still drinking tea calmly, looking at the scenery in the yard, as if he hadn't heard anything. Seeing this situation, Dou Kuan knew that it was his turn to take the stage. This kind of thing should be done by a ruffian like him.

It is better to do,

So he put down the teacup in his hand, walked up to Farong, and said in a deep voice: "Master Farong, His Highness respects you as an eminent monk of the Buddhist sect. He is courteous to you in every way. It is already a great honor for you. Don't push yourself too far."

Otherwise, what qualifications do you, a scum of the Fo family and a generation of slutty monks, have to speak nonsense in front of the Crown Prince? Are you worthy of negotiating terms with His Highness?

I tell you, just relying on the confession of your prodigal son and the evidence collected by the government, you can be ruined in an instant. By then, you will be like a lost dog, what strength will you have?

So even if you want to be a dog for His Highness, it depends on whether His Highness is willing or not, do you understand?"

Dou Kuan's words made Farong stunned. Ever since he became famous, others have acted based on his face. But today, this governor who seems to be more gentle on the outside dares to humiliate him like this. This is

It was something he didn't expect.

However, he had to admit that Dou Kuan was right. No matter how he increased his chips, he could not change the situation of people under the roof.

Whether it is for the sake of Ge Hui and his son, or to preserve the power he has worked so hard for many years, if he does not obey them today, he will have nothing and will be infamy after leaving this door. The power of the Fo door is complex, and there are many people in power.

, they will not go to war with the imperial court for themselves.

After thinking about this, Farong stood up slowly, and when Li Chengqian knelt down on his knees to serve his ancestors, he said: "The sins of this poor monk are serious, and it is entirely up to Your Highness to deal with them. I only hope that Your Highness can let that person go."

Mother and son, one horse." After saying this, he knocked his head heavily to the ground.

"Yan Ji, you are also a dignified fourth-grade governor. How can you speak to the master like this? This is too rude. Why don't you help the master up quickly?"

After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian put down the tea cup in his hand, let out a long sigh, and then said: "Buddha said that people have seven sufferings: birth, old age, illness, death, the meeting of resentments, the separation of love, and the lack of what you want. As long as you are a human being,

Not exempt from vulgarity.
