Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

Chapter 43: Prince's Teacher Resigns

The next day, there will be a court meeting.

Du He, who was sitting at the back, found that the ministers in the court would glance at him from time to time.

And many people had a smile on their faces as if they were watching a show.

Especially the followers of Wei Wang Li Tai, including Wei Ting, Chai Lingwu, Fang Yiai and Cui Renshi, they were like marrying a new bride.

Throughout the entire court meeting, they had bright smiles on their faces.

After the court session, Fang Yiai mocked Du He again when he passed by him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Du, the God of Literature who has descended to earth, I wonder when your masterpiece will be completed?"

"When the time comes, I will definitely buy a copy of your masterpiece and read it carefully."

Fang Yiai's love life and career are flourishing now, and he can be said to be a winner in life.

The new beauty from the Western Regions who he took in was like a fairy, and she served him to the point of making him feel very comfortable every night.

Even Princess Gaoyang's unhappiness about her secret meeting with Monk Bian Ji disappeared without a trace.

Moreover, Du He and the Crown Prince are becoming more and more dishonest, and His Majesty has already issued a final ultimatum to both of them.

When the time comes, if the prince has nothing to report, the most serious punishment will be losing his title as crown prince.

The virtuous King of Wei would naturally become the crown prince.

These heroes will also enjoy higher status in the future.

Du He stood up and saw that Fang Yiai looked pale and a little listless, knowing that this was a sign of excessive indulgence.

"The woman from the Western Regions is so fierce. She has made the tall and mighty Fang Yiai look so weak."

"If it was Li Chengqian who is thin, he would probably have to hold on to the wall when walking."

Du He secretly complained in his heart.

"Why, Lord Wenqu has that expression on his face? Could it be that he hasn't compiled any books?" Seeing that Du He didn't say anything, Fang Yiai continued to mock him.

It feels so good to confront people.

Even when people pointed at Du He, the coward, and cursed him, he didn't dare to talk back.

Fang Yiai, who had taken advantage of the verbal attack, felt relaxed all over.

Du He stood up and pretended to be angry and said, "Damn it, I don't know which bastard who gave birth to a son without an asshole spread this rumor, saying that I am the God of Literature incarnate, isn't this flattering me?"

Fang Yiai's face was furious: "Du He, who do you think gave birth to a son without an asshole?"

After saying this, Fang Yiai was stunned and wanted to slap himself twice.

You are such a chatterbox, how could you let this slip?

Afterwards, Fang Yiai didn't dare to argue with Du He any longer. He ran away, fearing that Du He would use this point to criticize him.

Du He watched Fang Yiai fleeing in panic and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It turns out that this name was spread by this kid Fang Yiai. He actually did a good thing."

All the ministers who passed by Du He smiled meaningfully.

It was as if Du He was a monkey in the zoo, an animal for everyone to watch.

"Laugh, laugh, in a month you won't be able to laugh anymore."

After Du He finished muttering, he left the Taiji Hall and walked towards the East Palace.

Passing by the East Palace, Du He discovered that Princess Changle Li Lizhi was persuading Li Chengqian.

Just as he was about to sneak past, a clear voice suddenly called him.

"Du He, come in for a moment."

Du He was in a fixed position and could only walk into the hall obediently.

Li Lizhi's appearance and figure are somewhat similar to Li Yi's, both of them are slim and slender.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and meet Princess Changle."

Li Lizhi waved her hand: "No need to be polite, please sit over here."

After Du He sat down, Li Lizhi frowned and spoke softly.

"Brother Crown Prince, you and Du He really can't continue fooling around. You have to focus on state affairs."

"Now the court and the common people are all waiting to see you make a fool of yourself."

"Stop now and admit your mistakes to your father. I will also speak well of you. Let's just let this matter go."

Last night, Li Lizhi couldn't sleep all night, and all she could think about was this matter.

She really couldn't understand how her heroic and wise brother the Crown Prince could have ended up like this.

Li Chengqian had matured a lot. He comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Lizhi. Du He and I are doing something important. This is definitely not a joke."

Du He also patted his chest and assured: "Your Highness, I have already signed a military order in front of His Majesty. Do you think I will risk my life to fool around?"

After some persuasion from the two, Li Lizhi left the Eastern Palace with a heavy heart.

She couldn't convince the prince and Du He, so staying any longer would be a waste of time.

Only when something happened would she and her sister Li Yi go to the palace to beg her father to spare the prince and Du He.

Du He patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and said, "Your Highness, let's go. Once we finish compiling the dictionary, His Majesty and Li Zhi will definitely be very happy."

...

A month passed, and the voices discussing the Crown Prince and Du He in Chang'an City increased instead of decreased.

Everyone was watching and waiting. People who knew the situation, such as the Wei Palace, were waiting to see the joke, while the common people who followed suit were full of anticipation.

The people are sincerely looking forward to the excellent works of the prince and his wife.

As time passed, the East Palace became quieter and quieter, and no one knew what they were doing.

During this period, a major incident occurred in the Prince of Wei's Palace.

Li Tai organized a grand lecture by great Confucian scholars, with Kong Yingda and several other great Confucian scholars serving as teachers, and invited court officials and scholars to participate.

Even Li Shimin was alarmed by this event. He appeared in private clothes and watched for most of the hour.

After returning to the palace, Li Shimin praised Li Tai non-stop and even ate an extra bowl of rice at night.

The Prince's Secretary Li Baiyao, the Prince's Left Assistant Zhang Xuansu, Yu Zhining and others saw what was happening and were worried.

They took turns going to the Eastern Palace to persuade Li Chengqian, but they didn't expect that Li Chengqian not only didn't listen to them, but later he even refused to let them enter the gate of the Eastern Palace.

Li Chengqian's move directly angered these teachers and made these ministers see the true face of this prince.

The prince is beyond saving!

Their burning hearts completely cooled down.

The three hot-tempered Li Baiyao, Zhang Xuansu and Yu Zhining went to the palace to see Li Shimin angrily and asked to resign from the title of the prince's teacher.

Li Shimin tried to persuade them to stay again and again, but the attitude of these ministers was very firm.

In desperation, Li Shimin could only agree to their request.

As for Ma Zhou, Liu Li, Cen Wenben and Chu Suiliang, they were not the prince's teachers in the true sense. They only needed to go to the East Palace every one or two days to enlighten the prince.

So they didn’t care even though they couldn’t enter the Eastern Palace.

Less work, more time for them to rest, why not?

The news that the prince's teacher resigned caused a huge sensation in the court.

Countless confused ministers were wondering in their hearts whether His Majesty was planning to change the crown prince.

East Palace, Chongwen Hall.

Du He and Li Chengqian were working hard and turning a deaf ear to the huge changes taking place outside.

"Du He, nearly 5% of the dictionary compilation work has been completed. At this rate of progress, it is estimated that it will be completed by late May!" Li Chengqian said excitedly.

It was not easy at all, and no one knows how they managed to survive during this period.

They stayed in the hall every day, flipping through thousands of books, and faced with the vast amount of boring text, they were almost driven crazy.

If it weren't for the rapid progress and Du He's daily encouragement to everyone.

These people may not be able to survive.

Du He smiled and nodded: "Your Highness, if you keep working hard, you will see the light soon!"

Du He was well aware of the huge commotion outside.

Let the bullets fly for a while!
