"I …"
Kong Yingda panicked.
He was aware of all these things.
It was rumored that what happened on the mountain was approved by the Emperor and arranged by the Crown Prince.
He even knew about the imperial edict last time.
But he always thought that it was the Young Masters who fooled the Emperor and that the Emperor should be displeased with it. Besides, there was nothing on the mountain that was taught by Sage Confucius.
Kong Yingda hastily withdrew a book from his pocket, and then he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I obtained from White Deer Academy. It's something called a textbook that they teach, and practically every single one of the 3,000 plus students on the mountain has one!"
"Please have a look, Your Majesty!"
Li Shimin didn't even look at the booklet. Kong Yingda panicked and said, "There are many things in this textbook that go against the teachings of Sage Confucius. In particular, there is a sentence in it that says the Emperor is as guilty as the common people if he violates the law! This is an affront to the Emperor's grace! "
"Besides, he is a Viscount and the Head Chancellor of the two academies. But he dared not to attend such an important event as the Autumn Planting Ceremony. This is contempt for the Emperor's power! Your Majesty. "
"Your Majesty, think about it. In today's world, who can let a broken bone stand on the street?"
"Besides, there is also the Blood Exchanging Technique. This is simply witchcraft!"
"Your Majesty …"
"Enough!"
"Kong Yingda, are you still so stubborn?"
Fang Xuanling was so angry that his whole body was trembling.
How can you be so blind to such an obvious thing?
Can't you see it clearly?
Does it even need to be said?
How can you be so foolish at this critical moment?
Fang Xuanling could roughly guess the Emperor's intention at this time. He also knew about the invisible black hand that shrouded the Tang Dynasty at this time.
But how could he know that the Emperor would jump out at this critical moment?
After all, he had some interactions with Kong Yingda in the past, so he couldn't bear to do it.
But at this time, seeing that Kong Yingda didn't know what was good for him, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but get angry. This was clearly the instruction of the Shandong nobles. Otherwise, no one would say anything about him. But today, what was going on?
How dare he be so bold?
Could it be …
What did Yuchi Gong do in Fengzi's mansion yesterday that this old man saw?
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but glance at Yuchi Gong, but when he saw that Yuchi Gong's expression remained unchanged, he frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Li Shimin shook his head and said, "After all, what Confucius said is for the sake of the Tang Dynasty. This is understandable. But let me ask you, do you have any evidence?"
"Yes!"
When Kong Yingda heard this, he immediately said, "As long as the emperor lets Niu Jianhu, Imperial Doctor Zhou, and the imperial doctors examine Niu Jianhu's legs in court, everything will be clear at a glance!"
"Good!"
Li Shimin nodded and asked again, "Minister Kong, have you thought it through?"
Kong Yingda represented the Shandong nobles. Li Shimin didn't want to drag the Shandong nobles to the opposite side so quickly, so he warned him.
However, Kong Yingda seemed to have gone crazy at this time. He said with certainty, "I have thought it through!"
When Li Shimin heard this, he sighed and said, "Since that's the case, summon Imperial Doctor Zhou and the imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital to the palace! Summon Niu Jianhu to the palace! "
"Today, I'll let you have a look!"
"…"
This time.
Even Li Shimin couldn't save Kong Yingda.
Fang Xuanling couldn't bear it. He sighed heavily and said nothing.
After all, he asked for it.
After a while, Zhou Hongru led a group of imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital to the palace in a hurry.
They knew about this on their way here.
At this time, when they went to the Political Announcement Hall, everyone looked at Kong Yingda with a bad expression.
However, Kong Yingda didn't care about this. He narrowed his eyes and pretended that nothing had happened.
Li Shimin didn't say a word. At this time, the Political Announcement Hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The oppressive atmosphere brewing in the hall made many ministers unable to help but have a layer of fine cold sweat on their foreheads.
In this torturous wait, Niu Jianhu appeared at the door of the Political Announcement Hall with a crutch.
"Niu Jianhu greets the emperor!"
Until this voice appeared.
Li Shimin slowly opened his eyes and waved his hand indifferently, "Give him a seat!"
"Minister Kong, how are you going to examine it?"
When Kong Yingda heard this, he said, "Replying to the emperor, you just need to take off these white cloths and it will be revealed to the world!"
"Good!"
Li Shimin waved his hand, "Imperial Doctor Zhou, take it off!"
"Wait!"
Kong Yingda hurriedly interrupted Li Shimin's words and said again, "In order to prevent them from acting, this old minister thought …"
Li Shimin waved his hand impatiently, "Then I'll let you take it off personally, how about it?"
How could Kong Yingda do this?
Looking around, he pointed at one of the backup imperial physicians who belonged to the Kong Family and said, "Let him do it!"
Li Shimin didn't want to look at Kong Yingda. He waved his hand and the imperial doctor of the Kong Family hurried to Niu Jianhu's side.
He habitually took out a mask from his arms and put it on his mouth. This time, Kong Yingda's expression instantly turned cold.
"Unfilial son, who let you wear this thing? Take it off for Old Man!"
"…"
