"Minister Kong Yingda has a plan to play," Kong Yingda said loudly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Aiqing has something to play, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it," Li Shimin said with a smile.
"The minister wants to sue Wu Yuanqing for the crime of flattering and confusing the prince," Kong Yingda was not polite, and said very directly.
Wu Yuanqing's cheap dad Wu Shi Yan stopped doing it, it was a big crime to confuse the prince, and it was a fatal thing to plant on his son's head, so the samurai choked and said: "Master Kong, you have to talk about evidence, why is my family Yuanqing flattering and confusing the prince, didn't you tell Your Majesty a few days ago that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely smart and has grown a lot in knowledge, are you slapping yourself in the face?" ā
"His Royal Highness the Prince's knowledge is indeed good, but it is true that Wu Yuanqing flattered and confused the prince and taught the prince badly. Master Wu is so anxious to refute, shouldn't it be because of his weak heart?" Kong Yingda refuted-for-tat.
"Weak heart,,,,, "Samurai Yan still has to speak.
Li Shimin has been very satisfied with Wu Yuanqing recently, and he doesn't believe that Wu Yuanqing will teach the prince badly, but it is about the heir of the empire, no matter how big or small, he can't care less, so when Li Shimin said two words to Wu Shiyi, he directly interrupted and said to Kong Yingda: "What is going on, Kong Aiqing will explain it in detail."
"Your Majesty, two days ago, the minister accidentally found that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tore up the books and used the book paper to fold something called a paper airplane to play, not only His Royal Highness the Prince played like this, but also Princess Changle played, and after the old minister's inquiry, I learned that the person who taught the prince and princess to play like this was Wu Yuanqing. Wu Yuanqing, as the prince's attendant, not only did not fulfill his responsibility to help the prince learn and progress, but also induced His Royal Highness the prince to indulge in fun, which is really undeserved, and he should not teach the prince and princess badly, and use this way of tearing up books and insulting sages to play."
"Oh, this really shouldn't be, I will reprimand Cheng Qian later, so that he won't do such things again in the future" Li Shimin said with a deep groan, but to be honest, Li Shimin didn't take it very seriously in his heart, didn't he just tear up a few books and play with them, what's the big deal, as for being so popular?
Li Shimin's disbelief was a little obvious, Kong Yingda saw it at a glance, so his heart was even more angry, and he knelt on the ground with a puff and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, books are not easy to come by, from the earliest knotted rope records, to the later oracle bone lettering, to the later bamboo slips, and finally to the current paper books, it is the unremitting efforts of generation after generation to have the books we see now, and it is also passed down from generation to generation. Books carry our thousands of civilizations, is our Tang Dynasty different from other barbarians of the greatest reliance, books record the words of the sages, on behalf of the sages themselves, the prince so insulted the sages, is a great disrespect to the sage, and Wu Yuanqing is the culprit, and please Your Majesty to Wu Yuanqing severe punishment, otherwise there is no way to block the world's scholars of the mouth."
"Your Majesty, please take a heavy responsibility"
"Your Majesty, please condemn the sin"
"Seconded by the Minister"
"Seconded by the Minister"

Li Shimin didn't expect that a trivial matter in his opinion would become like this, and so many ministers would severely punish their future son-in-law, how much trouble can this guy Wu Yuanqing have!
However, not to mention whether Li Shimin is willing to severely punish Wu Yuanqing, first of all, the matter itself is still not completely clear, and it is still Kong Yingda's family, and it is impossible to deal with a prince and a person who has made great contributions to the court after listening to his words, not to mention that this person will also become the new aunt of the Taiyuan Wang family, the emperor's new son-in-law, and a good concubine.
It should always be necessary to listen to what the parties say, it will take time for Wu Yuanqing to be called, but the crown prince and Princess Changle are in the palace, so it is also appropriate to ask them first to see what they say.
Li Chengqian and his sister Changle arrived at the main hall, listened to the plaintiff Kong Yingda's pleadings, and did not refute but nodded at the same time, admitting the fact of tearing the book.
"Your Majesty, since the crown prince and the princess have already identified Wu Yuanqing, the facts are correct, please also ask Your Majesty to issue an order to condemn the guilt" Kong Yingda shouted excitedly.
"Eh, sir, what is the palace has identified, I have to condemn Wu Yuanqing" Li Chengqian looked at Kong Yingda with a cute and stupid look.
Changle Little Lori also looked at him cutely and puzzled.
"Didn't His Royal Highness already admit that it was Wu Yuanqing who instigated you to destroy books and insult the sages" Kong Yingda was anxious, what does the prince mean by this, is it difficult to retract his confession.
"It's true that tearing the book jacket is taught by Wu Yuanqing, but what does this have to do with insulting the sages?" asked Li Chengqian, who didn't understand.
"The book records the words of the sages, it is a university question, but His Highness tore it up to play, not to insult the sage is anything, of course, although His Highness is at fault, it is not intentional, but Wu Yuanqing, a bad kind of His Highness, naturally has to be punished severely" Kong Yingda also thought that Li Chengqian was afraid of being punished and scolded so he asked, so what he said put Wu Yuanqing in the main position, and said two exculpatory words to Li Chengqian.
"Sir is right, the books do record the words of the sages, but you also have to distinguish what kind of books they are, as far as this palace knows, many books record nothing more than stories and scripts, and you can't say that these are also the words of the sages," Li Chengqian began to refute with a small mouth.
"Your Royal Highness, please don't tear up the topic and talk about him, now it's about the problem of you tearing up books, the minister thinks that there should be no books like stories in the prince's palace, otherwise the palace maids and servants in this palace should be severely punished" Another minister couldn't help but stand up and fight Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian saw that this person was Cen Wenwen, a member of the Zhongshu House, and wondered why this person came out, it seemed that Wu Yuanqing had not provoked this person.
However, Li Shimin has some knowledge in his heart, although Cen Wenwen has not been cheated by Wu Yuanqing, of course, he is not qualified to be pitted, but because of the late minister Feng Deyi, Cen Wenwen and Li Ke are relatively close, and now seeing that Wu Yuanqing, who has a good relationship with the prince, is being blamed, it is normal to come out to assist.
The other ministers who were connected to Wu Yuanqing laughed wildly in their hearts, this unexpected arm helped to ask very sharply, not bad, yes, worthy of being a civil official who is engaged in the pen, that is, he can grasp the point.
"Ahem, what Lord Cen said is right, ahem, ahem, the uterus is full of serious classics, naturally they are all the words of the sages, Wu Yuanqing lured the prince to tear up books and have fun, insulting the sages, it is really a crime to die, cough cough, teach the prince badly, insult the sages to death, and ask Your Majesty to condemn the crime" This person who has to cough for a long time when he speaks, and the person who is out of breath is a sick old man, who is the official Shangshu Du Yan.
"Old immortal, no matter how nonsense you are, the master will slap you to death"
