"Preposterous! Men, summon the Crown Prince!"
After hearing Kong Yingda's report, Second Emperor Li was so angry that his face turned ashen as he shouted.
Not long after, Li Chengqian was brought to Old Li by the palace guards.
Li Chengqian smiled and cupped his hands, saying loudly,"
"Greetings, Imperial Father. Eh? So Kong shi is here as well.
I was still wondering why Kong shi would suddenly leave when he was giving a lecture.
So, Kong shi had come to my father's place to kill time in order to slack off.”
Kong Yingda, who had been a little smug just now, instantly stiffened. She slowly looked at Second Emperor Li in front of her.
Originally, he thought that after receiving the heavy responsibility of educating the Crown Prince, this would be another peak in his life.
He was already quite famous in the capital.
If he could become a future emperor teacher, then his achievements would be limitless and would be on par with his ancestor, Sage Kong.
However, he realized that his thoughts were a little simple.
This Crown Prince was not as easy to teach as he had imagined. In fact, it was a hundred times harder than those people he had taught before.
Seeing Kong Yingda's 'aggrieved' gaze, Old Li was furious."
"Rascal, I found Kong shi for you because I want you to have some accomplishments in your studies.
Kong shi's knowledge is extraordinary, and he has an excellent reputation among the scholars. He is also a tireless teacher..."
Li Chengqian lowered his head and thought to himself,
It was probably Deception!
Old Li's expression froze, and he pointed angrily."
"You…"
Li Chengqian looked at his father in bafflement and said weakly,"
"Imperial Father, your son did not say anything. He was listening to your teachings seriously.”
Second Emperor Li was furious, but there were some things that he couldn't say out loud. At this moment, he said unhappily,
"Zhen asked why you didn't say anything. Do you have any objections to what Zhen said?”
"Your son has no objections. What Imperial Father said is bitter medicine and precious advice…"
Li Chengqian hurriedly shook his head, but he was thinking of something else.
You're saying it as if you'll really listen to my opinions.
Old Li was almost angered by this brat's inner thoughts.
This guy was a classic example of someone who refused to accept his words. What was the point of teaching him a lesson?
After thinking for a while, Li Er continued,"
"Then let me ask you, do you have a problem with Kong shi?”
Li Chengqian glanced at Kong Yingda and said loudly,"
"Imperial Father, how would your son dare to have any objections to the tireless Kong shi?
To be honest, even when Kong shi had left without saying a word, his son had no objections.”
Actually, if it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't have any objections to Kong Yingda.
However, Du Feng had a preconceived notion.
He knew that in history, the reason why Li Chengqian became like that, those Confucian lecturers of his had an unshirkable responsibility.
Kong Yingda was one of them.
This was also why he didn't like Kong Yingda.
At this moment, he was secretly cursing in his heart.
This Kong Yingda had no experience in educating the Crown Prince. What was the use of blindly copying past experience?
I am the Crown Prince, the heir to the throne, and I will be managing the entire Great Tang from now on, not a pedantic scholar.
According to his teachings, sooner or later, he would destroy me and gain the name Deception.
Moreover, I don't know what this old man is thinking. He just wants to be the future emperor's teacher.
The world's hustle and bustle come for profit, and the world's chaos goes for profit.
Of course, Kong Yingda wouldn't do it for profit, but people who did it for reputation were the most terrifying and stubborn!
……
Old Li, who had heard his thoughts at the same time, was suddenly a little shocked.
Because he felt that his little rascal's thoughts might not be completely wrong. There was still a lot of truth in it.
Previously, he had only felt that Kong Yingda's knowledge was extraordinary and that he could use his talent to educate the Crown Prince.
But now, it seemed that for Li Chengqian, the old-fashioned Kong Yingda might not be the best choice.
If they were forced to gather together, it might bring about unpleasant consequences.
Old Li was considered a relatively open-minded monarch. He pondered for a moment.
He said to Kong Yingda,"
"Minister Kong, you can leave the palace first. I will give you an answer after I teach the Crown Prince a lesson!”
Seeing Tian Zi say so, Kong Yingda naturally had no objections. She raised her head and walked out.
When only Li Chengqian and Old Li were left in the palace, Old Li suddenly said,"
"Rascal, what are you thinking?
Kong shi was a respectable person, so why would he be unwilling to give a lecture?”
Li Chengqian spread his hands and pretended to be mature.
"Imperial Father, your son didn't say that he wasn't willing. As long as Kong Yingda doesn't torment me.
He taught his lessons and I listened to mine. I could ask him, but he couldn't ask me.
It was as simple as that!”
Old Li nodded. He didn't agree but didn't object either.
However, after a while, he suddenly said,
"Chengqian, as the Crown Prince of the Great Tang, do you have any opinions on the matter of the treasury void?”
Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment. He did not know why this Old Li suddenly asked him such a profound question.
"Imperial Father, I'm still young and don't understand these things.
If you want to ask for advice, you should look for Duke Liang, Duke Lai, or even uncle!”
Li Chengqian hesitated for a moment, then took advantage of his young age and said matter-of-factly.
Old Li smiled mysteriously and did not continue asking.
He waved his hand and said unhappily,
"Alright, quickly get lost. Seeing you, this one is annoyed.
Tomorrow afternoon, remember to go to Chongwen Hall to listen as usual. I will communicate with Kong Yingda.”
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and thought,"
He didn't expect his father to be so open-minded. It was unbelievable!
He cupped his hands and quickly walked out.
When only Li Er was left sitting there, he suddenly smiled and said,"
"This brat wants to be his salted fish and play dumb with me!
You said that you were too young to understand, and if you didn't understand, how could you come up with something like a salt monopoly?
Hehe, I won't do as you wish, hahahaha.”
Li Chengqian, who could vaguely hear a sinister laughter coming from behind him, suddenly staggered.
He looked behind him with a strange expression and whispered,"
"F * ck, my back feels cold. Why do I feel like someone is scheming against me?”
