Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

When the officials saw that these important officials all supported the prince, they also stood up and responded.

As for Changsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang, Yu Zhining, Zhang Xuansu and others, they remained silent for a few breaths and were forced to stand up and salute.

Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction, then said to Changsun Wuji.

"Zuo Pushe, the Ministry of Shangshu should send the sample of official documents to all prefectures and counties as soon as possible."

"If in half a month there are still officials submitting memorials using the previous format, I will severely punish you, the Left Prime Minister."

what!

How dare the prince say that?

When the civil and military officials heard what the prince said to Zhangsun Wuji, their faces were filled with astonishment.

Changsun Wuji is the head of all officials and the uncle of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Unexpectedly, the Crown Prince did not give Changsun Wuji any face and his words sounded extremely sharp.

"It seems that Zhangsun Wuji and the Crown Prince are destined to be incompatible!"

All the civil and military officials immediately understood the current relationship between the prince and Zhangsun Wuji through the prince's attitude towards them.

Changsun Wuji's expression paused slightly, he stood up holding the tablet and saluted.

"Sir, obey the order!"

Deputy Chief Position.

When Li Zhi saw his uncle being bullied by his elder brother, he clenched his hands, which were hidden in his wide sleeves, into fists.

Although he was extremely angry, he finally resisted the urge to stand up and speak.

Now the court is controlled by the prince, and the forces under the prince are very strong. If he speaks nonsense, he will easily be attacked by everyone.

Especially with the mad dog Du He here, he is just lurking now.

Once Du He goes crazy, I'm afraid even my uncle won't be his match.

Li Chengqian waved his hand to signal Zhangsun Wuji to sit down, and then he gave orders to the eunuchs.

"I'll give the sample essay template to you all for review. If you think there are areas for improvement, please feel free to raise them now."

After the civil and military officials finished reading the new official document template, they opened their mouths in surprise.

People like Chu Suiliang and Yu Zhining who strongly opposed it also looked at Fan Wen in astonishment, their eyes full of surprise.

So concise?

And it’s fresh and clear!

In just a few dozen words, everything is made clear!

The new official document style is so good and can save officials a lot of time. What other suggestions can they make?

Be quiet for a moment.

All the civil and military officials stood up together, bowed and shouted.

"His Royal Highness the Prince is wise!"

The shouting continued for dozens of breaths before being stopped by Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian explained some major and minor matters, then stood up and spoke.

"Today's court meeting ends here, and we are dismissed."

Civil and military officials all bowed and shouted.

"Farewell to His Highness the Crown Prince."

After the important officials left the Taiji Hall, a group of fourth and fifth rank officials gathered together and began to discuss excitedly.

“The new official document format is great!”

"From now on, when you write memorials, you don't have to rack your brains to think of the right words!"

"Writing a memorial can save a large portion of the day's time. Your Highness's order is indeed good!"

When the doctors in the Ministry of Works heard what their colleagues were saying, they all showed smug expressions on their faces.

Feng Jian, a doctor in the Military Farm Department, spoke in a slightly raised voice.

"Our Ministry of Industry had already written a memorial according to this template two years ago."

"It's too late for you to start writing now."

What?

The Ministry of Industry wrote in this format two years ago?

Why hasn't the news been released for two years? Is it hidden so deeply?

Everyone's expressions paused for a moment, then they gathered around and asked.

"Doctor Feng, are you saying that the template for this official document was written by Minister Du?"

Except for Du He, no one else in the Ministry of Industry has the ability to have such wild ideas.

Feng Jian nodded and said proudly.

"pretty close."

It turns out to be the work of Du Shangshu!

This is not surprising.

The doubts in the minds of the civil and military officials were suddenly cleared up.

As long as it was something made by Du He, they wouldn't find it strange.

...

That night.

The news that Li Chengqian ordered all officials to use the new model template to write memorials reached Li Shimin's ears.

Moreover, the sample essay templates were delivered to him as soon as possible.

Cuiwei Palace.

In the bedroom.

While drinking the medicine prepared by Sun Simiao, Li Shimin looked at the style of the new official document.

After a while.

He laughed and scolded, "This suggestion must have been made by that bastard Du He. No one else would have such an idea except for that lazy guy."

On the cushion on one side of the bedroom.

Wu Meiniang also held an official document in her hand, and her face was full of surprise.

After hearing what Li Shimin said, Wu Meiniang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I feel that this document is concise and clear, and will help improve the efficiency of handling government affairs."

"It's a major improvement!"

"Yeah." Li Shimin nodded in approval.

Despite all the criticism, Du He's suggestion is indeed good.

If Du He had proposed this idea more than ten years earlier, he would not have had to review memorials until late at night every day and ruin his health.

Li Shimin did not make any suggestions, so the decree was quickly passed down.

...

In the busyness, time passed quickly and half a month went by in the blink of an eye.

Ministry of Industry.

Du He sat leisurely in his office, drinking tea and reading a military book called "Yin Fu Ji".

This volume of "Yin Fu Ji" is one of the volumes in the military book "Liu Jun Mirror" written by Li Jing.

In order to make Du He use more normal military strategies, Li Jing showed him the original handwritten manuscript of "Yin Fu Ji".

The reason why Du He was able to have some free time was also because memorials were written in the format of the new model essay.

Now Li Chengqian can handle the memorials easily by himself and does not need his help.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the office door.

"Knock knock knock."

As the knock on the door sounded, Qin Huaidao's voice soon came.

"Minister Du, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has summoned you to the East Palace to discuss important matters."

"it is good."

Du He responded and then quickly walked out of the office.

During this period, Li Chengqian sent Qin Huaidao to call him every now and then, and he had already gotten used to it.

When Du He arrived at the Mingde Hall of the Eastern Palace, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Hou Junji, Li Ji and others also arrived one after another.

When Du He saw such a big scene, his expression paused slightly.

"Something big is happening!"

After everyone arrived, Li Chengqian said with a serious expression.

"My dear ministers, the Eastern Turks and Xueyantuo refused to send troops to attack the Western Turks!"

"They also drove our envoys back to the border of the Tang Dynasty!"

what!

Dare to drive away our envoys?

When the prime ministers heard the news, they all stood up angrily and shouted angrily with gritted teeth.

"The Eastern Turks and Xueyantuo are too rampant!"

"You don't even take our Tang Dynasty seriously!"

"Looks like we have to change our plan and deal with these two countries first!"

"..."

For a moment, all the ministers were excited, and shouts filled the entire Mingde Hall.

Du He did not expect that the Eastern Turks and Xueyantuo were so bold. Not only did they openly refuse to send troops, but they also dared to drive away the envoys of the Tang Dynasty.

It's like an old man eating arsenic because he thinks his life is too long!
