Li Shimin inadvertently raised the corners of his mouth slightly, curled them up again, and then snorted coldly.
"Please step aside, I have something to discuss with the prince."
Cheng Chubi then stood up. When he saw Zhang Xuansu kneeling beside him, he couldn't help but feel evil in his heart.
He leaned close to Zhang Xuansu's ear and whispered in a voice that only the other party could hear. "Old man, let's wait and see!"
Then he patted his butt and walked straight away. Zhang Xuansu was almost stunned with anger and froze on the spot. It took him a long time to be helped out of Li Zhengdian by his colleagues.
After everyone left, Li Chengqian let out a sigh of relief, turned around and apologized to his father.
But I saw that on Li Shimin's face, instead of being angry and serious for a long time, there was a smile that was similar to taking pleasure in others' misfortune.
"???" Li Chengqian's whole body was about to get messy in the wind, what's going on? What kind of evil is happening to his father...
"Come on, come on, sit down with me, father. That's Ning Zhong, right? Get some tea soup. Well, Chengqian, do you have chrysanthemum tea soup here?"
"Yes, Ning Zhong, go quickly." Li Chengqian quickly raised his head and said.
"Okay, now it's just you and me, father and son, we can have a good conversation..."
"Father, when did you arrive?"
Li Shimin's expression became very strange, and he barely held back his smile.
"My father has arrived a long time ago. He has been outside the palace gate since Zhang Xuansu had a dispute with Cheng Sanlang."
"Then father, you already know..." Li Chengqian lowered his head in shame. "My child is useless. He can't even handle such a small dispute."
Li Shimin's big hand gently patted Li Chengqian's arm, his face full of sighs and emotions.
"No, I can't blame you. Any king would be caught off guard when encountering such an unprecedented scene..."
When Li Chengqian heard this, his heart moved, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw his father's face with a complicated expression.
"Actually, you've done a pretty good job, especially your last sentence, which hit the nail on the head. Those two gangsters...well, those two guys were just pretending."
"Cheng Sanlang still has a certain way of medicine. He is sure that the other party is faking it, so it must be true."
"As for him being poisoned and falling down, although it's a bit... a bit exaggerated, it's still a strategy of fighting fire with poison."
"After all, there are not many officials in the East Palace who are willing to stand with him, Cheng Sanlang, right?"
Seeing his father's gaze, Li Chengqian smiled shyly and nodded.
"Brother Chu Bi offended many officials of the East Palace for the sake of the child..."
Ning Zhong hurriedly brought a pot of steaming chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of Deli's main palace, he was stopped by Zhao Kun, the leader of His Majesty's confidant guards.
Then he saw Zhao Kun reporting inside. After receiving a response, he sent the pot of hot tea into the palace and then backed out.
Ning Zhong stretched his neck and saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty sitting there lazily, sipping tea and talking quietly.
It can be clearly seen that it is completely different from the scene where father and son met in the past.
In the past, when two people met, they would sit upright and look solemn. How could it be like this...
After taking a peek, Ning Zhong rubbed his sore neck and stood calmly outside the hall. Only the corners of his mouth that couldn't help but raise revealed his happy mood.
"Thank you father for your teaching. My child understands..."
Li Chengqian benefited greatly from listening to his father's surprisingly patient explanation and analysis of the way to deal with people and ministers.
"But, these methods are only for dealing with ordinary ministers. If you encounter ministers like Cheng's father and son, haha... cough, then you can't do this."
Li Chengqian saw his father's angry and funny expression, but when he thought about Brother Chu Bi's exaggerated acting skills just now, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You should ask your father to teach the child. The child knows that Brother Chu Bi, well, there will always be accidents..."
"As a father, let me tell you this..." Li Shimin smacked his mouth and lowered his voice.
"To deal with Cheng Sanlang, we have to punish him just like his father. This is the fairness of a superior person.
But, in private, you can give more comfort and more rewards..."
Li Chengqian looked at his biological father, saw the meaningful smile on his lips, and thought about how Brother Chu Bi often complained that the whole family often did not receive their salary...
Li Chengqian almost wanted to roll down on the floor with his belly in his arms. He suppressed his smile and nodded vigorously.
"The child roughly understands what father means."
"It's good that you can understand. Remember, as a king, you must have a steelyard in your heart to understand who are the ministers you can entrust and which ministers you need to deal with carefully..."
Li Shimin talked to Li Chengqian for another half an hour, and then he stood up with some unfinished thoughts.
With Li Chengqian's respectful farewell, he walked out of the Li Zheng Hall. With a quick glance, he saw something not far away from the hall.
Cheng Chubi, this kid, was so careless that he chatted with some elite Zuo Nei rate people without knowing what they were talking about.
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin almost burst into laughter. This guy has a really good attitude, even better than his father.
"Okay, I'm going back to the palace first. If nothing happens, I'll go see your mother and the Su family more often."
#####
After seeing his father leave, Li Chengqian's eyes fell on Ning Zhong. "Inform the officials of the East Palace to continue the palace discussion just now."
"Yes, I obey." Ning Zhong nodded and hurriedly gave the order. In a short time, a group of young eunuchs outside Li Zheng Palace rushed in all directions.
Soon, all the officials from the East Palace gathered together again, but this time, Zhang Xuansu, the crown prince's son-in-law, did not appear.
However, some familiar colleagues said that Zhang Xuansu was dizzy and really couldn't come.
Even if Li Chengqian didn't understand, this guy had clearly been hit just now and felt embarrassed and embarrassed to show up again in such a short time.
Turning his eyes, he saw that Brother Chu Bi was still standing on the ground with his old spirit holding the ceremonial knife. Hmm... He was indeed Brother Chu Bi. He had a strong will that could not be matched by others.
"I think Yu Qing's proposal just now is very reasonable. Cheng Qing is my father's minister of Taichang Temple. It is my father's good intention to reward Cheng Qing."
"And Gu is the crown prince of the country, and Cheng Qing is also Gu's vassal. Cheng Qing's deeds are of great benefit to Gu, so Gu should be rewarded generously. Otherwise, if the rewards and punishments of the East Palace are unclear, the ban will not work."
"Cheng Qing..."
"Your Majesty is here." Cheng Chubi was very happy in his heart, but still looked very serious on the outside. He quickly put the ceremonial knife aside, stepped back to the steps and bowed respectfully.
"Deputy Cheng was rewarded with 5,000 catties of gold, 5,000 bolts of silk, and a horse to show his merit..."
