In Xiande Hall.
Kong shi and Kong Yingda, who had left Yiqiu Palace in a rage, were standing in front of Li Shiming.
He cupped his hands and said to Li Shi Min,""Your Majesty, please allow this old minister to resign from the position of the Eastern Palace's attendant.
So that I can focus on studying the ancient books and scriptures and reproduce the glory of the ancestors…"
Seeing how serious Kong Yingda's words were, Li Shimin, who was talking to Wei Zheng just now, was instantly stunned.
"Why did Minister Kong suddenly say such a thing?" he asked. Could it be that the Crown Prince…"
"That's right, Your Majesty. His Highness the Crown Prince is unruly for no reason.
Your Majesty, please find another job so that I can go back and study the words of the Sage behind closed doors.”
Kong Yingda's face was cold as if she had suffered a great grievance.
"What happened to the Crown Prince?" Li Shi Min raised his hand. Please tell me in detail.
If the Crown Prince is mischievous, I will naturally punish him. As for the matter of resignation, Minister Kong does not need to say much.”
Hearing Tian Zi's words, Kong Yingda's expression became better.
Immediately, he recounted everything that happened after Du He entered, from beginning to end, in detail.
Especially when it was said that under Du He's leadership, Crown Prince Li Chengqian actually had no respect for his teachers.
Kong Yingda's tone became heavier.
It fully displayed his disgust towards Du He and his heartache towards the Crown Prince Li Chengqian's bad behavior.
As for Second Emperor Li, when he heard that the incident today was related to that brat Du He, he was shocked.
He frowned.
On the contrary, Wei Zheng, who was beside him, was standing on the same line as Kong Yingda.
He cupped his hands and said,"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne of a country. How can you condone such a thing?"
Your Majesty, please punish the Crown Prince severely so that he won't be affected by some stingy villain…"
"Your Majesty, Wei Zuocheng is right!
If he didn't nip this in the bud, the Thousand Miles River would probably be destroyed!”
Kong Yingda nodded repeatedly when she heard someone chime in.
Li Shi Min nodded slightly and ordered,"Men, announce that His Highness the Crown Prince has come for an audience!
Oh right, summon that brat Du He as well. I'll see what he has to say.”
A eunuch responded and left.
Soon, the news of Li Shi Min's summons reached Yiqiu Palace.
But at this time, Li Chengqian was happily catching rabbits with Du He.
The eunuch who passed the order searched for a long time before he finally found the two of them among the weeds.
He didn't have time to change his clothes as he was worried about the eunuch waiting for Li Shi Min, so he led the two of them to Xian De Hall.
Hearing that he was summoned, Du He didn't do anything. Beside him, Li Chengqian's small face was currently uneasy.
"Brother Du He, what should we do now? Father will definitely punish me."
Looking at the frightened Li Chengqian, Du He comforted him and said,"
"It's okay. Don't say anything later.”
"Yes!"
Hearing Du He's words, Li Chengqian, who was greatly influenced by Du He, nodded heavily.
From Yiqiu Palace to Xian De Hall, passing by Dew Hall in the middle was actually not far.
In less than a cup of tea's time, Du He and Li Chengqian were brought to the front of Second Emperor Li.
The people standing next to him were Kong Yingda, who had come to complain, and Wei Zheng, who had not left yet.
The three old fellows in front all had a straight face.
The moment Li Chengqian came in, he was so scared that he was at a loss.
It was Du He who took the lead to bow and said,
"Your Majesty, I wonder what instructions you have for summoning Gao Ming and me?”
"Hmph, I heard from Servant Kong that the two of you were extremely naughty in Yiqiu Palace and didn't listen to discipline.”
Li Shi Min glared at them and asked.
"Imperial Father, your son knows his mistake. Imperial Father, please…"
Li Chengqian, who had just been exhorted by Du He, was now being glared at by Second Emperor Li.
His knees gave way and he immediately knelt down to admit his mistake.
Du He, who saw this scene, almost had his head covered.
He thought to himself, Isn't your speed of admitting your mistake a little too fast? Could it be that you've been traumatized by your punishment?
Fortunately, Du He reacted quickly and hurriedly covered Li Chengqian's mouth.
He would not let Li Chengqian admit his mistake so easily. At this moment, he opened his mouth to save him,
"Your Majesty, I don't agree with what you said. The situation at that time was not discipline. I think it was more like imprisonment.
Gao Ming was the Crown Prince, but he was being controlled here and there. He had no freedom at all.
Was this still the treatment that a Crown Prince should have? I'm afraid that the prisoners in the prison have it better than him…"
"Nonsense!"
"Alarmist talk!"
After hearing Du He's words, Li Shi Min only frowned.
However, Kong Yingda and Wei Zheng glared at him and shouted angrily.
At the same time, their needle-like gazes were fixed on Du He alone.
Du He had already seen that skinny old man, Kong Yingda, so it was not surprising that he stopped him.
But for the other person, he was a little confused. He asked Li Chengqian,
"Gao Ming, who is this other person? What does it have to do with him?"
"Oh…oh, Brother Du He, this is Minister Zuo, Wei Zheng, one of the Eastern Palace's attendants.”
Li Chengqian, who was pulled by Du He and did not kneel, hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.
Wei Zheng?
Wasn't that the number one troll in the Great Tang?
Du He instantly recalled this incident.
At this moment, Du He and Li Chengqian were conversing softly.
Kong Yingda and Wei Zheng exchanged a glance and confirmed that Wei Zheng, who had more 'combat power', would take the lead.
Wei Zheng stared at Du He and said,"You bastard! How would I dare to spout nonsense in front of His Majesty?"
However, Du He, who was not suppressed by any level, glared back at him and said,"
"Wei Zuocheng is so unreasonable.
Could it be that keeping the Crown Prince under tight control was considered good for him?
I don't think so. I think that tension and relaxation is the way of the king…"
Hearing this, Li Shi Min's eyes lit up, feeling that Du He's words made sense.
But Wei Zheng was worthy of the title of the Great Tang's number one spitfire. How could he let Du He speak his mind?
"Du He, what do you know at such a young age?" he said with a wave of his hand.
The Crown Prince was still young, so he was naturally disciplined to prevent him from being influenced by the playboy's mischievousness.
Otherwise, how could the Crown Prince become the ruler of a country in the long run? How could he become a wise ruler?”
Li Shi Min nodded slightly while Kong Yingda nodded heavily.
Even Li Chengqian, who was being discussed, was about to nod hesitantly even though his face was pale.
However, Du He did not nod. Instead, he laughed and narrowed his eyes slightly.
