God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Li Er was stunned for a while.

After a long time, Li Er waved his hand and ordered: "Zhao Yang, quickly arrange for 500 taels of silver to be given to Du He. This money should be withdrawn from the internal treasury."

In other words, Li Er did not intend to use the treasury money.

This is an uncommon behavior. Usually, money will be paid from the inner treasury only when rewarding the prince and princess.

But everyone thought about it again, anyway, Du He will soon become a son-in-law, so it seems reasonable to do so.

Zhao Yang went to make arrangements immediately.

Du He waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, everyone, I'll leave if I have nothing to do!"

The demeanor is relaxed and casual, as if he just came to go shopping.

Li Er didn't pay attention, so he nodded and agreed.

Seeing that Du He turned to leave, Prince Li Chengqian and others suddenly reacted, and hurriedly shouted: "Du He, you can't leave!"

Li Chengqian immediately said: "Father, the purpose of letting Du He go to the palace today is to find out the truth about Master Kong being humiliated in public. Now that the matter is unclear, how can we let Du He leave at will?"

Li Er realized immediately.

This Du He is really good at fooling people.

Li Er then said: "Du He, this matter has caused a great uproar in Chang'an City, don't you want to give me an explanation?"

Du He said easily: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story, so I will make it short."

"First of all, I didn't humiliate Master Kong, I just made a simple science popularization for everyone."

"I have said before that the ceremony of sitting in the Central Plains has been done for a long time, not only will there be problems with the knees, but also the legs will be deformed. Children and low-level people will not have this problem, because they seldom sit on their knees. The older the person, the more serious the situation is. Master Confucius is the leader of Confucianism. I heard that it is rare to obey the power of kneeling and sitting even when eating. As time goes by, his legs will naturally deform. On that day, I just wanted to To prove this, I asked Master Kong to show his legs in public, they are indeed a pair of elegant bow legs, everyone present at that time could see clearly, how can this be called an insult?"

Du He turned around, pulled Cheng Yaojin over, and asked, "Uncle Cheng, you come to comment. Can something like science popularization be called an insult?"

Cheng Yaojin shook his head, and said with a chuckle: "No, it's not an insult, Master Kong is too stingy at his age. Old Cheng, I also have bowlegged legs, don't believe me!"

In order to help Du He, Cheng Yaojin went all out and stood in front of everyone, showing off his legs.

Although not as serious as Kong Yingda, his legs were slightly deformed.

"Everyone, take a look, Lao Cheng, mine is also bow-legged, and I am bow-legged, elegant bow-legged, look carefully..."

Lao Cheng lifted the hem of his robe, and walked up in a big way.

Many people hurriedly turned their heads away.

The picture is so beautiful, I can't bear to look directly at it.

Li Er knocked on the table speechlessly, and said, "Alright, Yizhen, don't mess around with me."

Cheng Yaojin laughed and said: "Your Majesty, this is not nonsense, I think Master Kong is too stingy."

Old Cheng really wanted to help Du He out of the siege.

A few days ago, when Qin Huaiyu's doorman Cheng Chumo sold himself to buy sunglasses, Lao Cheng couldn't help scolding Du He for being dishonest, but when Qin Huaiyu took out the deed of selling himself, Lao Cheng said with emotion: "It's still Du He. The boy is righteous, it is not in vain that I love him for nothing!"

Wang Gui, the attendant of the Huangmen, pointed at Cheng Yaojin and said angrily, "Duke Lu, you are a general, how can you compare yourself to Master Kong?"

Cheng Yaojin became angry when he heard it: "My surname is Wang, what do you mean, you mean I am shameless, don't you? What happened to the general? This Tang Dynasty, which part of the Tang Dynasty was not made by our generals, damn it , are you calling our generals shameless?"

Qin Qiong immediately said: "My lord Wang is careful, military generals also have the face of military generals."

"My lord, please speak carefully!"

"We have made great contributions to Datang, can't Mr. Wang see it?"

A group of military generals quit immediately, and they all stood up to accuse Wang Gui.

Seeing this posture, Wang Gui immediately retracted his head, not daring to speak any more.

And Prince Li Chengqian was frightened immediately.

Normally, Li Chengqian most wanted to win over the military generals of the court, but no one paid any attention to him.

Therefore, he would never dare to offend Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong and others.

For a while, there was a lot of noise and debate in the Tai Chi Hall.

Fortunately, everyone is more civilized, their language is more restrained, and nothing like hands-on has happened.

As for Du He, standing in the middle of the crowd, he was yawning again and again, looking like he was watching a good show.

Li Er felt his head buzzing and had a headache for a while.

Bang bang bang.

Li Er was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "Okay, shut up. There is no need to discuss this matter. Du He, since you started this matter, I will give you ten days to settle the matter." This matter should be resolved properly, if it cannot be resolved, I will never forgive you lightly when the time comes."

Li Er's expression was stern, but everyone was a little dumbfounded.

What kind of punishment is this?

This is simply letting Du He go, okay?

Du He hurried forward and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness. After ten days, Caomin will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Li Er waved his hand, and Du He hurried away. The reward of 500 taels of silver should have been prepared.

Li Chengqian and others saw that Du He left easily, but they had no good idea in mind.

……

Confucius House.

Kong Yingda's complexion has recovered a lot, and he is basking in the sun in the yard.

The youngest son, Kong Zhiliang, stood aside and said: "Today, His Royal Highness, Lord Wang Gui, Lord Chen Shuda, etc. have asked His Majesty to make decisions in the early morning court. It must have been planned by now. At noon, the palace should be able to spread the news. "Although Your Majesty has favored Du He several times, but this matter concerns the face of Confucianism, I think His Majesty will not easily let Du He go."

Kong Yingda snorted and said: "This matter... If the old man is not sick in bed, how can His Majesty let His Majesty deal with it? Although Du He is too much, he is just an uncrowned child. If this matter gets out, the old man's reputation will still be lost. gone?"

"Father, you can cultivate with peace of mind, His Majesty will decide everything." Kong Zhiliang said helplessly.

Kong Yingda sighed.

The dignified Confucian masters, who were vomiting blood in a childish manner, had nothing to do, and in the end His Majesty had to deal with the matter himself, which in itself made people laugh.

But, if you don't do this, there's nothing you can do about Du He.
