When he opened his blurry eyes and saw Lian Xiyue, he hurriedly wiped the saliva at the corner of his mouth and said, ”Eldest Miss.”

Lian Ruyue looked into the ancestral hall and saw that under the dim oil lamp, Lian Fang stood up straight in front of the ancestral tablets of all the ancestors of the Lian Family. The pale orange light enveloped his entire body and unexpectedly gave it a hazy appearance.

”Eldest Miss, please go beg your master again. When has the young master ever suffered like this? He can only kneel for three days and three nights, yet he can't eat meat. There's only green radish for every meal. I'm really afraid …”

”49th, do you think I'm an extremely weak infant? If you keep on talking, don't stay here. Go back to Wen Hua Yuan. ” 49. Before he could finish crying, he heard Lian Fu's cold voice.

”Young master …”

”Shut up!” Lian Meng scolded.

”…” 49 covered his mouth and didn't dare to say another word. His young master was becoming more and more stubborn. Wasn't this asking for trouble?

Lian Ruyue said, ”Fourth or ninth, Young Master has decided to kneel here for three days and three nights. You don't need to think too much and can just wait here peacefully.”

”Yes, Eldest Miss.” 49 replied respectfully.

Lian Ruyue took another look at the ancestral hall before leaving with the maids and wives.

It took them three days and three nights to come out from the ancestral hall. After coming out, they were led by Lian Tian to Lian Yan Qing's study.

Lian Yan Qing sat in front of the desk, tightly pursed his lips. He solemnly looked at his son kneeling in front of him. The study room was filled with a solemn atmosphere. The two of them looked at each other without saying anything.

”Your father made you think over the walls of the ancestral hall. Kneeling for three days and three nights, what did you think?” In the end, Yan Qing broke the silence.

”Yi'er has been thinking about a few lines of the Book of Rites that my father told me to read since I was a child.” Lian Fu replied.

”Oh? ”What do you mean?” Lian Yan Qing's body slightly leaned forward as he asked.

”The desire of the ancients is clear to the world, but the person who wishes to rule the country shall be first; the person who desires to rule the country shall first cultivate his or her body; the person who desires to cultivate his or her body shall first have his or her heart; the person who desires to exact his or her heart shall first express his or her intentions; the person who wishes to express his or her wishes shall first inform him or her of what is in the lattice.” His voice was clear and loud as he spoke.

”Then, what did you comprehend from it?” Lian Yanqing continued asking.

”Responsibility.”

Lian Yan Qing nodded slightly and asked, ”What responsibility?”

”To myself, to the Prime Minister, to my father, to mother and sister, to the world.”

Lian Yanqing's face finally broke into a smile. He got up, walked up to Lian Fu, bent down, and personally helped her up. ”My good son, hurry and get up.”

”Thank you, father.” Lian Meng stood up and looked at the man in front of him. He was the one who called him father for more than ten years, and for the first time, he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

”Yi'er, your father feels extremely gratified to be able to think of this. You are the legitimate son of my Prime Minister, so the burden of the Lian Family will definitely fall on your shoulders. I, your father, truly do not wish for you to take the risk to build your career. This time, I shall punish you to kneel in front of the Ancestral Temple. It was undeniable that no matter how cruel and merciless Lian Yan Qing was, he would always treat his son Lian Fu sincerely.
