This news is truly shocking…
"Your Highness...is this...is it true?"
Tang Gonggong's face flushed with excitement!
"Of course it's true, but it's still unstable right now, otherwise they wouldn't have blown themselves up..."
Li Zhu explained that this reason was reasonable, and even Eunuch Tang thought it was normal…
"Then...then should I go back and report?"
Tang Gonggong asked cautiously. His initial disdain for Li Zhu had turned into genuine respect in just over half a month. Even Tang Gonggong himself found it unbelievable and couldn't understand why a person could change so much. Was he really just pretending to be weak before?
"Haha... Uncle Tang, don't be so polite, just say what you need to say..."
Li Zhu said generously, which made Tang Gonggong a little unsure. If the leader really told you to say whatever you wanted, it didn't really mean you could say whatever you wanted. What you said had to make the leader happy!
"Then I will go and tell His Majesty that His Highness the Crown Prince is kind and virtuous, working tirelessly for the new Tang Dynasty, researching new weapons day and night, even having his own palace destroyed and nearly losing his life. Such actions truly move us..."
"Haha... Uncle Tang just tells the truth like that..."
Hearing Li Zhu's words, Eunuch Tang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was right. However, he couldn't help but despise Li Zhu inwardly. How dare he be so shameless! Didn't he know whether what he said was true or not? He actually pretended to be embarrassed and admitted it…
"Very well, this old servant will take his leave now..."
After saying that, Eunuch Tang left in a hurry, truly coming and going in a flash!
However, just as he reached the main gate, he saw the Second Prince and Third Prince approaching with excited expressions. After exchanging a glance, Eunuch Tang got into his sedan chair and left without saying a word...
"Third brother, this servant is getting more and more unruly; he doesn't even greet us anymore..."
The second prince couldn't help but complain!
"That's someone close to Father Emperor. You'd better watch your words. Don't drag me down with you if you're looking for trouble..."
The Third Prince is now terrified of this incompetent teammate. Last time, he was foolishly tricked by Li Zhu without even realizing it, and instead felt that he was the one who was wrong. He felt that being brothers with this kind of person had lowered his IQ!
"What's wrong with you, Third Brother? I was just complaining to you, why are you getting more and more impatient with me lately?"
Listening to the Second Prince's complaining words, the Third Prince felt helpless. Originally, the two of them had temporarily joined forces due to the pressure brought by Li Zhu, but he found that he was suffering more and more losses, so he planned to end the alliance. However, the Second Prince wouldn't have it and kept coming to him impatiently, which made him feel helpless as well.
"Second brother, if you could talk less, perhaps you could live a little longer..."
The Third Prince kindly offered this reminder!
"Third brother, how could you speak to your second brother like that? Apologize now..."
The Third Prince rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "You're really good at using your status, coming here to find psychological balance. Why don't you go find psychological balance with Li Zhu? We're both younger brothers, why are you pretending to be an older brother..."
"roll!"
The third prince cursed angrily, then turned and walked towards the East Palace, comforting himself that he was here to have fun and shouldn't let a fool ruin his mood...
The second prince was stunned for a moment by the scolding, then pointed at the third prince and shouted loudly.
"How dare you disrespect your elder brother! Believe me or not, I'll go and complain to Father..."
However, the Third Prince's pace quickened, while the Second Prince relentlessly pursued him, intending to continue his head-on assault!
As Tang Gonggong left, he saw the two men's condition and couldn't help but shake his head, thinking they were beyond saving...
Li Zhu, who had just seen off Eunuch Tang, turned around and saw the Second Prince and Third Prince approaching. His face immediately lit up with a beaming smile…
"I'm relieved that my brother is safe and sound..."
The third prince's first words upon meeting were against his will, but what followed carried a hint of sarcasm.
"Brother, I heard that the Crown Prince's Palace was attacked again, so I rushed over to see if we needed any help, but now that I see the situation... it seems we don't need to..."
The third prince glanced at the devastated ruins and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. The person who did this was truly ruthless...
Although he was secretly pleased, he didn't show it. But the Second Prince couldn't hold back. Seeing the tragic scene before him, he immediately forgot his past pain and couldn't help but mock him.
"I told you we should do more good deeds, now you're getting your comeuppance!"
"That's right. If only we had listened to our second brother and done more good deeds, the Eastern Palace would be a constant source of trouble these days, with fires breaking out all the time. It's a real headache, and who knows how many more times we'll have to go through this..."
Li Zhu played along, secretly plotting to make fun of these two bastards. "You came to laugh at me? I'll make sure you don't have anything to laugh about..."
"Brother, I don't think this Eastern Palace is suitable for you. Look, you've only been here a short time, and it's already burned down three times..."
The second prince continued sarcastically!
"You're right, I think it would be better for my second brother to live in the Eastern Palace from now on..."
Li Zhu continued to cooperate and said...
"Your Majesty, who have you offended? If this continues, the Eastern Palace will soon be razed to the ground!"
The Third Prince suppressed his inner joy and asked in a calm tone!
"I didn't offend anyone..."
"Then Your Majesty must reflect on this carefully. Look at my and Second Brother's residences, such things have never happened before. If there's a problem, you need to look for the cause within yourself..."
The Third Prince spoke with a somewhat reprimanding tone!
"I'm also trying to figure out what went wrong. Why is this newly developed weapon so powerful? It blew up my room..."
Li Zhu said with a guilty expression, but his words showed no remorse whatsoever; he was completely in Versailles!
"Yes, it's good that Your Majesty has realized your mistake. In the future..."
The Third Prince immediately realized what was happening. He stared at the ruins before him, completely bewildered. What kind of weapon could achieve such an effect?
"This...this is an effect caused by your weapon?"
"Yes, I'm also a bit annoyed. I didn't control it properly and it exploded on its own. I'm thinking that my two younger brothers are both kind-hearted people who are willing to help their older brother. Why don't I go to your residence to continue researching weapons and prevent the East Palace from being destroyed again? Otherwise, when I leave Luoyang, it will be a shame for my two younger brothers to enter the East Palace and be faced with this dilapidated state, right?"
Li Zhu said with great sorrow!
Hearing Li Zhu's words, the Second Prince and Third Prince were seething with hatred. This wasn't an invitation for them to watch a show; it was clearly a display of military might, a way of telling them to behave themselves…
