Lishan Tangquan Palace, in the Paiyun Hall where Li Shimin lives.

Li Shimin looked at the thick sheet on the small table, his face was gloomy and dripping, and he was panting.

The little eunuch spread the word, the servant shot it, Li Shimin nodded slightly expressionlessly, and the little eunuch hurriedly went out to pass on.

Li Shimin watched Fang Xuanling walk up to the hall and salute without saying a word.

Fang Xuanling knew that Li Shimin was angry, and he was very respectful.

Li Shimin waved his hand, and the eunuchs in the hall all silently withdrew from the main hall, and then pointed to the seats on the ground and asked Fang Xuanling to sit down.

stood up and handed a recital to Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling got up, took it with both hands, and opened it to read.

At a glance, after reading the content of the recital, his face showed joy, and he said softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really far-sighted, and he coincides with His Majesty." ”

Li Shimin was relieved when he heard this.

"Well, this time Cheng Qian thought right, but if you don't keep it secret, you will lose your minister.

Fang Aiqing, take a look at these! Li Shimin said angrily and pointed to a pile of music tables on the small table.

Fang Xuanling hurriedly picked up a copy, and at first glance it was an impeachment of Li Chengqian, disrespecting the master, and disrespecting the classics, and then picking up another copy, and at first glance, it was still impeaching Li Chengqian, disrespecting the master......

After reading a few copies in a row, he smiled bitterly and said, "These people are too petty, aren't they?"

"Hmph, Cheng Qian's recital was written by him and asked Du He to send it to me personally. Du He said very clearly that before Cheng Qian wrote the recital, he only consulted a few masters in the East Palace. At that time, several masters still praised Cheng Qian, but the next day, there were so many recitals to impeach Cheng Qian.

Just find some bullshit reasons like disrespecting the master and changing the classics, just say that Cheng Qian can't worship the temple!

If Cheng Qian wants to prepare to fight Goguryeo, he is not worthy of inheriting the Zongmiao, and if I want to fight Goguryeo, do I have to abdicate and make way for Xian?"

Li Shimin's voice became more and more angry, and he almost shouted out in the end.

"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry, this just says that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disrespects the master and interprets the classics, and does not mention the fight against Goguryeo." Fang Xuanling was a little puzzled when he held the recital.

"I didn't mention fighting Goguryeo, so if I mentioned fighting Goguryeo, wouldn't some people have their identities exposed?

Although Cheng Qian is not good, he will not provoke Kong Yingda when he has nothing to do, I have always heard that Kong Yingda is used to meeting and fighting, and often reprimands Cheng Qian and does not dare to say anything. In the past, I didn't have any bad intentions when I thought that he was a master, and it was right to teach students a lesson, and I didn't want the old man to have bad intentions and dare to frame the prince. ”

Fang Xuanling sighed in her heart when she heard this, it seems that His Majesty still loves the prince very much.

"Your Majesty suspects them of malicious intentions, but there is no evidence!" Fang Xuanling reminded Li Shimin. kiss

"Don't worry, since they dare to jump out, I won't be soft. Fang Aiqing, you go back to Chang'an City first, reprimand Cheng Qian on behalf of me, and then see who else jumps out?" Li Shimin not only wants to sweep away all the external troubles, but also wants to put the DPRK and China in order.

Fang Xuanling, as a veteran minister for many years, naturally understood Li Shimin's thoughts, and he didn't speak when he heard the words, and withdrew with a deep salute.

The next day, early in the morning, Fang Xuanling returned to Chang'an City with great fanfare, and then came directly to the East Palace, stood at the door of the Jiade Hall and said: "There is a will, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come out to receive the decree." ”

Although his shout was not loud, it alarmed the entire East Palace.

What kind of person is Fang Xuanling, the young master of the prince, the left servant of Shangshu, that is the person who has been the prime minister for more than ten years. What kind of will can be used for him to return to Chang'an from Tangquan Palace to convey it in person to the East Palace?

Besides, Li Chengqian is an adult crown prince, the second person in the Tang Dynasty (the first person is his father), whoever comes to deliver the decree is a smile, and when he arrives at the East Palace, he asks the eunuch to pass it on, Li Chengqian agrees to see the prince, and after passing the will, he has to salute Li Chengqian again.

This time, it's good, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come to the Jiade Hall to receive the order!

Moreover, although Fang Xuanling is a high-ranking lord, he has always been cautious in his life and work, and today he actually went to the East Palace to play prestige, which is too unreasonable, right?

The three are unreasonable, indicating that the problem is very serious. So the entire East Palace was alarmed, and Li Chengqian was directing the rehearsal in the Eight Winds Hall in the back garden. The diameter distance from the Jiade Hall to the Eight Winds Hall was more than one kilometer, and the little eunuch who passed the word rushed all the way to the Eight Winds Palace, and it took a long time to make it clear. Li Chengqian didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly sat on a small chariot and went to the Jiade Palace.

When Li Chengqian came to the Jiade Palace, all the subordinate officials of the entire East Palace were already standing in the square in front of the Jiade Palace, looking at Fang Xuanling, who was standing in front of the Jiade Palace, was still arrogant, and was muttering in his heart, he wouldn't abolish the prince now, right?

The crown princess stood under the corridor with the two brothers, Li Xiang and Li Ju, anxiously waiting for Li Chengqian.

Since Li Chengqian woke up last time, he has been very attentive to her and her two sons, and everyone has dinner together every night, especially the big round table, which makes the family feel more warm when they sit together.

And Li Chengqian has been busy with business, either annotating books or rehearsing plays, she has also read the lyrics she wrote, each one is exquisite, and she is afraid that she will not be able to compete with Li Tai if she has such talent?

Therefore, she respects Li Chengqian from the bottom of her heart, and thinks about Li Chengqian in everything, because Li Chengqian has not been close to women recently, she plans to do beauty pageants for Li Chengqian, and because Li Chengqian likes her two sons, she treats Li Xiangdu as her own and takes care of her every day.

On the way here, Li Chengqian also learned that today's things were different from the usual, got off the step, walked to the front of the Xiande Palace, and waved his hand at Fang Xuanling.

"Please Father, Emperor!"

"St. Ann! Emperor Kouyu: The prince Chengqian did not concentrate on reading, changed the classics indiscriminately, disrespected the master, made great trouble, and was deeply disappointed, so he ordered the prince to study hard, and he must no longer disrespect the master. ”

After listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian was sure that this time he was right, but he just reprimanded a few words without pain, without any punishment, and did not let him make amends to Kong Yingda, this is what others see.

There were already thousands of people standing in the square in front of the hall, but they were all puzzled at this time, so how could they lightly reprimand them for such a large formation?

There is neither an actual punishment nor a demand for reparation to the masters, what is that?

Fang Xuanling finished the oracle with an expressionless face, and when the prince saluted again, he turned around and gave up the right position to Li Chengqian, and went to the ground to give Li Chengqian a salute.

He smiled and said, "The old minister has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, everything is okay in the East Palace recently?"

Everyone: Everything is fine, why are you here to reprimand the prince, isn't this nonsense?

Li Chengqian said lightly: "With Master Lao's concern, everything is fine in the East Palace." "Fang Xuanling also served as the prince and young master to support the affairs of the government.

"Even so, the old minister still has to go to Tangquan Palace to deal with official business, so he will retire." Fang Xuanling's every word is like a spring breeze.

"It's hard to work Master Fang, Master Fang, please do it." Li Chengqian is still calm.

Even Fang Xuanling is not calm now, you must know that Fang Xuanling is the minister left by Empress Changsun to Li Chengqian, Empress Changsun has shown kindness to Fang Xuanling many times, and when she is dying, she has not forgotten to tell Li Shimin to reuse Fang Xuanling, just for one thing, that is, to let Fang Xuanling protect the prince Li Chengqian.

Fang Xuanling has always been the young master of the crown prince, and he is Li Chengqian's most useful courtier.

In the past, Li Chengqian begged Fang Xuanling for help when he had any difficulties, but today he was suddenly reprimanded by Li Shimin, and under normal circumstances, he should also ask himself about the emperor's attitude, why did he let himself leave so easily?

Fang Xuanling was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and he saluted Li Chengqian again and turned around and walked out.

Li Chengqian raised his head and said lightly to the subordinate officials and guards of the East Palace who were standing around: "After the excitement is over, let's go back to their respective posts." ”

Thinking that the Eight Winds Hall was still rehearsing, he got on the chariot and went to the Eight Winds Palace.

And Fang Xuanling was stopped by Kong Yingda, Zhang Xuansu and Yu Zhining before he walked out of the East Palace, these three people are currently the masters of the East Palace, and they are all valuable and knowledgeable. Kong Yingda is a descendant of Confucius, and his age is far beyond Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling saw him in private that he was going to perform the junior ceremony, but he was blocked by them at this time, so he had to follow them to a side hall in Zuochunfang.

When Xu Li sat down, Kong Yingda said angrily: "The crown prince is really getting more and more disagreeable. ”

"Oh, didn't the emperor order the old minister to pass on the oracle to reprimand His Royal Highness the Prince?" Fang Xuanling is still gentle and elegant.

"What's the use of just reprimanding?" Zhang Xuansu was also beside him to help him.

"What then?" Fang Xuanling was really frightened, the crown prince is the prince, the second person in the world? Even if you make a mistake, just because you have some disputes with your master, what if you, the prime minister of the dynasty, come to reprimand me personally?

Yu Zhining had some brains, and when he saw that the words were wrong, he hurriedly said: "Fang Gong doesn't know, in the past few days, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has trapped us in this Zuo Chunfang, drinking tea and eating snacks all day long, and never mentioning reading. ”

Yu Zhining is only in his fifties, the youngest of the three masters, and he rarely scolds Li Chengqian in person, and he still hopes that Li Chengqian will become a dragon hero after he ascends the throne, so he just wants to enter the East Palace now and continue to give lectures to Li Chengqian.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in good health, and he has not been to the court during this time, why do you have to fight for a while?" Fang Xuanling didn't know what to do, so he could only be perfunctory.

After that, he got up and said, "I still have something to do in Tangquan Palace, so I won't accompany the three of them." "Arch hands out.

Watching Fang Xuanling leave, Yu Zhining felt a little bad in his heart, although the emperor reprimanded the prince, but he didn't comfort them, this is not Li Shimin's previous style, what is wrong?

Yu Zhining couldn't figure it out, and when he looked back at Kong Yingda, who had a white beard, he was very indifferent, as if he was not surprised, but in fact, because Li Tai copied the book for him, he no longer cared about Li Chengqian, a student he had taught for more than ten years.

Zhang Xuansu was full of anger, but he couldn't find a place to vent.

Yu Zhining sighed in his heart, how could he cooperate with such two people, he didn't say anything, but he was a little uneasy in his heart.
