The shadow of fear in the crown prince's heart finally began to dissipate somewhat.
It turns out that Eunuch Hong was not so powerful as to be invincible.
It turns out that Mr. Su could easily defeat him.
He imagined that he would soon have such a powerful young master.
The prince felt a surge of security and happiness.
He glanced at the proud and flamboyant young pageboy beside Mr. Su.
Then he remembered that little pageboy who dared to pat Eunuch Hong on the head.
She smiled softly without realizing it.
Even a young page could feel so at ease in the presence of his teacher.
Indeed, this is the confidence that comes with great strength.
Moreover, it is clear that Mr. Su is an extremely gentle person.
He could treat even a pageboy like this.
Therefore, this is why Eunuch Hong received this lesson.
It must be because he went too far.
He deserves it.
But, the next moment.
The crown prince suddenly looked up and pondered for a moment.
He suddenly remembered something important.
The Crown Prince looked at the Second Prince and asked with a frown.
"Second brother, has Mr. Su gotten himself into big trouble?"
"Is there any way we can help Mr. Su?"
Mr. Su has beaten Hong, the most trusted and relied-upon eunuch by the Empress Dowager's side.
That would be a huge disaster.
If it is said that it is for some other reason, the Empress Dowager will reprimand the teacher.
I, my second brother, and my third brother can still plead for leniency.
But what if we hit this chief eunuch?
This will make things difficult.
You must know that my aunt is the eldest princess.
She made a mistake, and this old eunuch was willing to slap her aunt on behalf of the Empress Dowager.
And if I do something wrong.
Although the old eunuchs dared not hit the crown prince, they would still punish the palace maids around them.
This clearly demonstrates the status of the old eunuch in the palace.
He didn't know what to do.
But my second brother has always been intelligent.
Ask your second brother; maybe he has an idea.
The Second Prince, Li Chengze, nodded, then shook his head with a smile.
"It's a disaster."
"But we can't help Mr. Su."
"Mr. Su doesn't need our help."
They were indeed powerless to do anything about it.
These men, appearing to be of noble status, are all princes from the imperial palace.
But how much say do they actually have?
Those people in their palace, that old eunuch, can't all be punished.
Not to mention the old eunuch, any eunuch in the Empress Dowager's palace.
They could all boss people around in their palace.
Their every word and action was also bound by the rules of the palace.
Who dares to utter a single word against these rules?
But Mr. Su dared to do it, and he did.
This is the courage and confidence that comes with great strength.
Regardless of their status, Mr. Su is powerful, while they are weak.
Therefore, they cannot help Mr. Su.
Moreover, Mr. Su really doesn't need their help.
They were able to take action in the palace and easily make that old eunuch Hong Sixiang kneel down.
It's easy to imagine how terrifying Mr. Su's strength is.
How could someone like that be afraid of the consequences of this matter?
For others, this was a terrible disaster.
This was something that could cause a huge uproar in the palace.
But for Mr. Su, it must have been a trivial matter.
Just from the calm and collected look on Mr. Su's face, one could tell.
Mr. Su did not take this matter to heart at all.
The crown prince nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
She continued to look at Mr. Su with an expression of admiration.
Some wanted to go closer and greet Mr. Su.
However, some were hesitant to step forward.
He couldn't explain his reasons.
Mingming had been looking forward to it for a long time, wanting to talk to Mr. Su, whom she admired the most.
I'd like to hear some interesting stories and experiences from your childhood about how you supported yourself.
I'd also like to ask you, sir, how did you manage to do all this?
I also want to properly express my deepest respect to Mr. Su.
But as the moment approached, I felt incredibly nervous.
My legs just won't move.
Even with his mouth open, he dared not utter a word.
Sigh, I guess I'm really useless.
Just as his father commented, he is somewhat timid.
The Second Prince, Li Chengze, also looked at Su Yu with immense admiration.
Unlike the Crown Prince's indecisiveness, he was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
The second prince strode directly toward Su Yu, his gaze unwavering.
Because he saw the strongest power in the world!
He saw someone powerful enough to stand against everything in this world!
Mr. Su can do whatever he wants.
Forget about the proper duties between ruler and subject, forget about palace etiquette.
Mr. Su did not want to follow the rules, so he ignored them all.
Anyone who wants to give him even the slightest advice should be made to kneel down, bow their head, and admit their mistake.
Even if the other party is backed by the most powerful person in the world.
What Mr. Su is doing now is utterly outrageous.
It was intolerable to the imperial power, and it was intolerable to the rules of the palace.
However, at this moment, no one in the palace dared to criticize Mr. Su.
Those who were usually so arrogant and domineering all fell silent at this moment.
Even the most esteemed Empress Dowager hid inside the palace, not daring to utter a single word.
20. Mr. Su's indifferent expression seemed to disdain everything in the palace.
He disregards the rules, as if he were the rules themselves.
Even a young pageboy beside him could do whatever he wanted.
Yes, once he has power, no one can control him.
Then you can do whatever you want.
Then you can protect the people you want to protect.
These are things that the Second Prince Li Chengze would never have dared to dream of in his entire life.
At least, before this, he dared not think about it.
But as long as you're human, you'll have desires and resentment.
He loved reading, but he disliked politics and scheming against others.
He wanted to protect his mother and the people around him.
