Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

Unexpectedly, he had just asked his servants to send two carts of apology to the princess's mansion yesterday, and Du He immediately reported it to His Majesty. This behavior was truly ungentlemanly.

If Fang Yiai had not been afraid that this was the Taiji Temple, he would have rolled up his sleeves and dealt with Du He, this despicable villain, long ago.

Du He spread his hands and said, "Lord Fang, whether you believe it or not, I did not do this."

"You can also check with His Majesty later to see if it was me who filed the complaint."

Seeing Du He's serious expression, Fang Yiai's face, which was originally full of anger, immediately showed a hint of doubt.

At this moment, a tablet raised high up suddenly hit Fang Yiai's head.

"Snapped!"

Before Fang Yiai could get angry, Fang Xuanling's voice came over with suppressed anger.

"Rebellious son, what on earth have you done?"

"Why did His Majesty summon you to the Ganlu Palace alone?"

Fang Xuanling did not believe that Fang Yiai was summoned to Ganlu Palace by His Majesty to be praised and given such high rewards because of his meritorious services.

If his premonition was correct, this rebellious son must have caused a big disaster!

Now that His Majesty has summoned him to Ganlu Palace, he is also preparing to deal with him.

Fang Yiai's face changed, and he stammered, "Dad, I have to hurry to Ganlu Palace. I can't keep His Majesty waiting for too long."

"I will report the details to you after I return to the mansion."

After saying this, Fang Yiai did not continue to question Du He, but ran out of the Tai Chi Hall.

Fang Xuanling looked at Fang Yiai's leaving back, his face full of worry.

I don’t know what bad things this rebellious son has done, and why no one has told him anything?

Fang Xuanling then turned around and asked Du He, "Nephew Du, I wonder what my useless son did to offend you?"

Du He quickly clasped his fists towards Fang Xuanling and said, "Prince Fang, Minister Fang did not offend me, but he did slander Princess Gaoyang."

"Because I am one of the people who have been slandered, what I say may not be so fair."

"Many civil and military officials know the details of what happened. Minister Fang may as well ask them."

Then Du He clasped his fists and bowed to Fang Xuanling, and then left the Taiji Hall with Yu Chang, the Minister of Works, and the four doctors of the Ministry of Works.

The commotion here also attracted Du Gou's attention.

He saw Fang Xuanling standing in front of Du He's seat without moving, and his face looked very ugly.

Du Gou frowned and thought, "What is the second brother up to now?"

"Why are you confronting Fang Yiai again?"

In his heart, even though Fang Xuanling was dismissed from his post as Shangshu Zuo Pushe, he was still one of the people His Majesty trusted the most.

Moreover, whenever there were any issues, big or small, they would ask Fang Xuanling to participate in the discussion.

Now the second brother, relying on the crown prince's favor, dares to look down on Fang Xuanling, a giant. It seems that he is a little too proud of himself.

I have to find a time to give the second brother some good advice!

Just as Du Gou was guessing in his heart, Shangshu Zuo Pushe Changsun Wuji walked up to him and said to him with a smile.

"Du Zuocheng, let's go back to the Shangshu Province!"

"We have to draft a decree for the relocation of the people in the next few days, otherwise His Majesty will send someone to urge us again."

Du Gou quickly clasped his fists and said, "As you wish!"

When Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji, Li Jing, Gao Shilian and others left the Taiji Hall, they all looked at Fang Xuanling with regret.

I didn't expect that the highly respected Fang Xuanling would give birth to such a troublesome son like Fang Yiai.

If this happened to them, they would be so angry that they would get seriously ill.

Ma Zhou and Imperial Censor Tang Lin looked at each other and left the Taiji Hall side by side.

Someone had already reported to the Censorate what happened in the Taiji Hall yesterday.

However, in order to repay Fang Xuanling for his help, the two of them did not take the initiative to impeach Fang Yiai at the court meeting.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty still took the initiative to find Fang Yiai. Now no one can help him.

Fang Xuanling was stunned for a moment, then he looked for several officials to find out what was going on.

When Fang Xuanling learned that his rebellious son had slandered Princess Gaoyang for having an affair with Du He, he felt his eyes go dark and his mind instantly went dizzy.

When the officials around saw Fang Xuanling was about to fall, they hurried to support him.

"Fang Sikong, be careful!"

After Fang Xuanling stood firm, he waved weakly at the officials around him, and then spoke in a hoarse voice.

"I am fine."

After saying this, he left the Tai Chi Hall with heavy steps.

A group of officials looked at Fang Xuanling's thin figure, which looked somewhat miserable, and a trace of pity appeared on their faces.

After dozens of breaths, a low voice of discussion was heard in the Tai Chi Hall.

"Fang Yiai is such a scumbag!"

"This unfortunate child is only busy growing physically, but his brain hasn't grown at all!"

"Fortunately, he is not Fang Sikong's eldest son, otherwise Fang Sikong's family property would have been ruined by him."

In their opinion, someone like Fang Yiai, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and was also a princess, had already reached a height that most people could never reach in their lifetime.

But this child felt that life was too smooth, and actually tried every means to create difficulties for himself.

You really have to endure the hardship!

...

Inside the Manna Hall.

Li Shimin sat on a Hu chair with an angry face. He stared straight at Fang Yiai, who was standing in the center of the hall with his head lowered and his hands hanging down.

The atmosphere in the hall also became depressing because of the silence of the two.

After more than ten breaths.

Li Shimin asked coldly: "Fang Yiai, am I good to you?"

Fang Yiai quickly replied: "Your Majesty is very gracious to me."

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, then raised his voice.

"With your knowledge and ability, it is impossible for you to be the Minister of the Imperial Household. I promoted you out of consideration for the Duke of Liang and Gao Yang."

"I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful and instead slander Gao Yang and Du He for having an affair. What crime should you be punished for?"

Hearing Li Shimin's questioning, Fang Yiai's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.

He kowtowed to Li Shimin and confessed his guilt, saying, "Your Majesty, I love Gao Yang too much, so I felt jealous when I saw the poem written by Du He in Gao Yang's bedroom."

"I was jealous and angry, so I said those irrational words."

"But it has already happened. No matter how much I say, it will be useless. I will allow Your Majesty to punish me!"

He thought of these words on his way to Ganlu Palace, and hoped that by saying them he would be forgiven by His Majesty.

He originally thought that His Majesty would be moved by his words as he imagined, but he did not expect the result to be different from what he imagined.

"Oh!"

Li Shimin slammed his fist on the table and shouted angrily with gritted teeth.

"Shameless, full of nonsense!"

"If you had cared about Gao Yang, you wouldn't have said those shameful words in Taiji Hall!"
