Chapter 31: Your Crown Prince was also appointed by me
Chapter 31: Your Crown Prince was also appointed by me
Not to mention Li Pangpang who couldn't remember it, even the ministers were recalling it.
After all, when the King of Wei visited the Crown Prince that day, the Crown Prince went out to greet him publicly, and everyone saw the two of them talking outside the palace.
A friendly scene.
I didn't see any argument between the two.
Cheng Zhijie and Li Jing didn't want to hear this. They were angry that the King of Wei had interfered and delayed their work.
With just one word from the prince, they could calmly return to their seats. There was no need for them to stand in the middle of the hall as if they were being tried.
His whole body felt like it was being pricked by needles, and he felt as if people were looking at him mockingly everywhere.
We are dukes after all. Do we really think we are as shameless as the prince said?
"It seems that the King of Wei has a really bad memory."
"I won't ask you whether you have selectively forgotten."
Li Chengqian said calmly: "Today, I will remind you again."
Li Tai was still confused, racking his brains to recall what he had forgotten.
"In the East Palace, behind closed doors, you can call me your Royal Brother or Big Brother, and I won't argue with you. I will just answer you."
"But in this Taiji Palace, during the grand court meeting, in such a solemn and formal occasion, you still call me your royal brother as if no one else is around."
Li Chengqian's tone gradually became stern, "You seem to be close to me, but in fact you have no regard for your superiors and treat my dignity as nothing."
"I have reprimanded you before. You are a prince and should not be participating in court meetings. You have no right to speak."
"But you don't know what's good for you, you don't know your limits, you ignore the court's laws, and you openly shout in front of the ministers."
"Relying on His Majesty's favor, you have lost all your manners."
"Just because of what you just said, I will punish you for the crime of disrespect. It's all your own fault!"
Li Pangpang was confused.
A strong feeling of grievance surged in his heart.
With all the ministers in front of him, the emperor lowered his eyelids, and the lame man scolded him twice.
His dignity was insulted and his face was trampled upon.
Looking at the looks of his ministers, he felt so ashamed and angry that he wanted to burrow into the ground.
He is the King of Wei and the second son of His Majesty. How could he bear to be scolded like this in the court?
This was worse than killing him.
Li Jing turned his head away and didn't look, but Cheng Zhijie was watching with great interest.
Since there is no way to resolve the issue, let's just watch the fun.
The stupid King of Wei.
The very fact that you were holding court in the palace had already caused dissatisfaction among many people. What qualifications do you, the King of Wei, have to stand in such a formal occasion for a grand court meeting?
Since Your Majesty has granted my permission, I will not say more.
The world belongs to your Majesty, you can do whatever you want.
But since you, King Wei, are standing here, you should understand one thing.
If you are not qualified to enter the palace, but Your Majesty has granted you the qualification, then you must know how to abide by the law and have self-knowledge.
Listen more, watch more, and talk less. Maintain an appropriate presence so that the ministers cannot find fault with you and cause trouble for you.
When His Majesty calls on you and asks you a question, you answer properly and politely, and the ministers will not say anything.
This way, I won't embarrass myself, nor will it make things difficult for Your Majesty.
But since the court meeting began.
What did the King of Wei do?
He was so eager to show himself that he refused to repent even after being scolded by the prince.
At this moment, he wanted to stand up and make the so-called plea.
Who here doesn't know what he is thinking?
Everyone knows it, but they just don't point it out.
But if you want to beg for mercy, just beg for mercy. Why do you have to involve the prince?
If you say that the Crown Prince's words were gentler and more tactful, can it be understood that you, the King of Wei, are accusing the Crown Prince of inciting the Duke to cause trouble?
You, a prince, said such words that implied and criticized the Crown Prince in public, and not only did your plea for mercy fail, but you also offended three dukes.
Do you want to die?
Even if the prince doesn't say anything out of consideration for family ties, do you think anyone will stand up to deal with you?
The King of Wei also wanted to thank the prince for being disrespectful without giving anyone else a chance to speak.
If Wei Zheng had taken over, the King of Wei would have been skinned alive today if he hadn't died.
Li Er couldn't be protected, the ministers said so.
Besides, Li Jing, does Cheng Zhijie need you, the King of Wei, to plead for mercy?
Just a stupid shit stirrer.
"Father!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Unexpected.
Li Pangpang's mentality collapsed and his heart was broken. At this moment, he seemed to feel countless eyes looking at him making a fool of himself.
Unable to hold back the grievance in his heart, he cried out to Li Er, hoping to find someone to back him up.
Li Er had a stern face, which was actually uglier than Li Pangpang's.
He held onto the handrail with both hands and hasn't let go yet.
This shows what state of mind he is in.
"Why are you still crying?"
"Hey."
Countless ministers shook their heads. Such real men were reduced to tears by just a few words from the crown prince during the grand court meeting.
The King of Wei still wants to seize the throne?
Does he deserve it?
"cry!?"
"Take back the horse urine for me."
Li Chengqian angrily scolded: "You are a prince of the Tang Dynasty, the second son of His Majesty, and you act like a woman."
"You have brought shame upon me, and even more shame upon His Majesty."
Li Er couldn't bear it any longer, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Cheng Qian, that's enough!"
"Your Majesty, please call me Prince!"
Li Chengqian's tone was calm, neither too high nor too low. He did not have the hysterical roar he had the first time. He just stated a fact in a flat tone to remind Li Er.
But it was precisely this calm tone that made Li Er's blood rush to his head.
"Prince!"
"My patience is limited. I know when to stop and when to stop."
Li Chengqian said, "Your Majesty, are you accusing me of being wrong and wanting to protect the King of Wei and allow him to continue to be disrespectful and reckless?"
"Qingque didn't..."
"Still there? I am the king and he is the subject."
Li Chengqian said in a loud voice, "When he sees me, he should address me as the Crown Prince and pay his respects to me."
"The ministers dared to ignore the majesty of the king and criticize the king without reason."
"Your Majesty, may I ask who gave him the confidence?"
"Who gave him permission to do this?"
"Today, even if I strip him of his princely title and demote him to a commoner, he still won't say I am wrong."
It’s over.
It’s over.
In the end, it all comes back to the dispute between Your Majesty and the Crown Prince.
Seeing the Crown Prince arguing with His Majesty, the ministers were actually anxious.
In a dispute like this, even if it is none of their business, being innocent is a sin.
It’s all caused by this bastard King Wei.
Everyone was waiting for the prince to make a heroic comment, and when the meeting was over, everyone patted their butts and left.
You, King Wei, insist on coming out to show your presence.
Now that's good, how will it end?
Cheng Zhijie is as disgusting as a dead dog. Damn it, their small problem is about to become a big problem.
It is emphasized and recorded in history books.
"You are not qualified to be stripped of your title."
Li Er leaned forward and stared at Li Chengqian, his eyes like knives, majestic and cold, "I conferred the title of prince on you, you can revoke it if you want?"
"The Crown Prince wants to deprive me of my princely title. I can understand that you are overstepping your authority."
"I am the prince!"
Li Chengqian held his head high, showing no fear at all, and faced the enemy head-on.
"Your prince was also canonized by me!"
Li Er slapped the armrest and said angrily
He claims that he has changed too.
Hear the words.
The ministers were greatly shocked and their expressions changed with shock.
The meaning of your Majesty's warning is very clear.
The Crown Prince is appointed by Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also has the power to depose the Crown Prince.
This is telling the prince that I can enthrone you or I can depose you.
Don't continue to challenge the bottom line of tolerance.
