The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 210 Jin Yang Pleads Guilty
"Si, do you mean to let the two teachers go to play the father?" Li Chengqian said while sitting at the desk.

"It's not just the two adults, I also have to go to the father's side in a while. There are some things that you can't do with your status as the prince, but you can do it." Jin Yang smiled and said: "So, this time , let Sizi share the worries of the prince’s elder brother.”

Li Chengqian's status destined him to be cautious no matter what he said and did. Although the people in the court did not have their eyes on the East Palace [-]%, there were also some caring people who paid special attention to Li Chengqian's words and deeds. Therefore, Li Chengqian could not Let anyone take any opportunity to attack him.

"I didn't expect Sizi to protect elder brother one day." Li Chengqian looked at Jinyang dotingly: "As expected of Sizi, I didn't love you for nothing."

"That is." Jin Yang replied quite complacently: "However, if this matter is really carried out with great fanfare, it is difficult to guarantee that the elders behind the subordinate officials will lose face, so this is the most troublesome thing."

"Of course this big brother knows, so he just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes on weekdays. He never thought that they would go too far." Li Chengqian sighed.

"Father should have returned to Taiji Palace by now, I will go to Taiji Palace to meet Father!" Jin Yang said, getting up and going out.

"Si, do you want to go back to Lushan Academy tomorrow?" Jin Yang had just walked to the door of the study when Li Chengqian asked.

"I will leave the palace in the evening and stay at the Fourth Brother's house at night, and return to the academy with Brother Jing tomorrow morning." Jin Yang said, "Why, what's the matter with Brother Prince?"

"It's nothing, it's just that you are alone outside the palace, if anything happens, you must send someone to tell the elder brother, you understand?"

Jin Yang nodded with a smile, and then left the East Palace.

When Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun were nestled at home thinking about how to write a memorial about the vegetarian meals for the officials in the East Palace, Sizi had already brought her personal eunuchs and eunuchs to the Taiji Hall in arrogance.

"Your Majesty, Princess Jinyang is asking to see you outside the palace." Deyi walked to His Majesty Li Er and said in a low voice.

"Huh? Sis? Didn't she just go to Chengqian's place? Besides, if she came to the Taiji Hall, she would just come in directly, and why would she send someone to pass it on?" His Majesty Li Er wrote on the memorial with the imperial pen in his hand. A quick book.

"Well, Your Majesty, the princess said that she has business to ask for His Majesty this time, and she is kneeling outside the hall now." Deyi said.

When His Majesty Li Er heard that Jin Yang was kneeling outside the Tai Chi Hall, he immediately stopped writing: "What? Kneeling outside the hall? Why don't you hurry up and let Sizi enter the hall? What a big deal, the little princess treats you like this. "

"No." Deyi responded, and shouted loudly outside the hall: "Your Majesty announces the audience of Princess Jinyang."

Jin Yang ordered the little maids and eunuchs who followed him to wait outside the hall, and walked into the Tai Chi Hall by himself.

Walking to the center of the hall, Jin Yang lifted the skirt and knelt down.

"My son sees my father."

"Get up, Sizi, what's the matter, why are you giving such a big gift?" His Majesty Li Er stood up, walked to Jinyang, and helped Jinyang up.

Jin Yang lowered his head and said in a serious tone: "My son, please ask father to punish my son for meddling in politics."

"Let's hear it." Listening to Jin Yang's words, His Majesty Li Er was a little confused. What kind of crime of meddling in politics, he usually followed him to read memorials and deal with political affairs. Why did it appear again now? A political intermediary was convicted: "Look at Si Zi, who is not good-looking who bullied Si Zi? Father, help you get justice."

"Father~~" Jin Yang raised his head, his eyes filled with steam.

"Someone really bullied you?!" His Majesty Li Er suddenly became serious.

"No, father, have you seen the prince's brother in the past two days?"

"Chengqian? What happened to Chengqian? Could it be that he made Sizi unhappy?"

Jin Yang shook his head: "No, Sizi went to see the prince's brother just now, and found that the prince's brother has been shutting himself in the study for the past two days to deal with political affairs. It’s too pitiful for Brother Prince.”

His Majesty Li Er said with a smile: "What is the big deal for me? Cheng Qian, as the crown prince of a country, handles political affairs as he should, but you said that Cheng Qian has lost a lot of weight in the past two days?"

"Well, when Sizi carried Xiang'er to the prince's elder brother's study, he found that the prince's elder brother was much thinner than before, and he was the only one handling the mountains of memorials on the desk," Jin Yang said.

"Pile up into a mountain? No way, the number of papers that I sent people to send over is not many." His Majesty Li Er asked doubtfully.

"Sizi has seen the memorials reviewed by the prince's elder brother, some of which were submitted by the officials of the Eastern Palace." Jin Yang said: "Today, Sizi came to ask Father for mercy because of the memorials submitted by the officials of the Eastern Palace."

"Sir, what kindness do you want from your father?" His Majesty Li Er asked.

"Father, please strictly investigate the administration of the East Palace!" After saying that, Jin Yang knelt down on the ground again.

Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er felt that the matter was a bit serious. His daughter would not want to go to investigate the official affairs of the Eastern Palace by herself. Sizi followed him. How much worse is Ke'er and Qingque? Sizi knelt in front of her twice today, which shows that she has discovered some problems with the officials of the Eastern Palace.

"Get up, son, come and tell Father carefully what's going on." His Majesty Li Er helped Jinyang up, pulled Jinyang and sat beside Yuan.

After a long time, Jin Yang told His Majesty Li Er all the ins and outs, and then mentioned that he had summoned Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun in the East Palace.
"Hahahahaha~~" After listening, His Majesty Li Er laughed and said, "I guess Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun were frightened by Sizi at that time."

To put it bluntly, Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun couldn't escape the responsibility of corrupt officials in the Eastern Palace. Jin Yang summoned the two of them so seriously, which must have shocked them too.

Isn't that the point? Jin Yang felt powerless to complain.

"Master Yu and Lord Du are highly respected seniors after all, it's really inappropriate for Si to do this, father." Jin Yang looked at His Majesty Li Er pitifully.

"It doesn't matter, both Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun are good gentlemen, what's more, Sizi raised it in private in the East Palace, and it is also a favor for the two of them. Don't worry, the matter will be handled by the father, and I will guarantee that Sizi will come down." When I came back for the first time, I saw a white and fat prince, how about it?" His Majesty Li Er said with a smile.

"Really?"

"You are not joking, since Sizi has approached the two of them today, presumably tomorrow morning, the two of them will have a booklet handed over. The East Palace has been busy for a long time, and it is time to take this opportunity to rectify it. However, I didn't do it myself, this matter can be used as a test, let Chengqian do it freely, I want to see what your prince brother can do, Sizi, you are not allowed to help him behind the scenes." His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and said: "I never thought that there would be such a mistake in arranging some noble children from Chang'an to the East Palace. Not only failed to help Chengqian, but tied his hands and feet, it was my fault."

"In fact, as long as the father stands behind the prince's brother, the prince's brother will be able to deal with it safely!" With His Majesty Li Er's promise, the matter has been resolved in half, and Jin Yang once again showed a bright smile on his face.
