Li Shimin waved to his ministers.

After everyone's voices died down, he turned his gaze to the front row of civil officials and spoke while pointing out the names of several important officials.

"Crown Prince, Minister of the Interior Changsun Wuji, Minister of Works Fang Xuanling, Special Adviser Li Jing, Minister of War Li Ji, and Minister of Personnel Hou Junji, please go to Liangyi Hall to discuss matters."

"Retreat."

After Li Shimin announced the retirement of the court, he took Li Chengqian and several ministers and went straight to Liangyi Hall.

The other court officials gathered in groups of three or five, chatting about the prince taking command.

This is a big deal, and its impact will be greater than if Your Majesty led the army in person.

Fang Yiai did not leave with his good brother Chai Lingwu. He approached Du He and said with gloating eyes.

"Hey, Du He, do you think the prince will take you with him when he goes to war?"

Before Du He could answer, he asked and answered his own questions and continued to sneer.

"Hey, you are someone the prince relies on. There is no reason not to take a young phoenix like you with him."

"Goguryeo is not easy to fight. You must not die there, otherwise I will not be able to see you in the court anymore. I will feel uncomfortable all over!"

After this guy finished speaking, he put on an exaggerated bitter smile on his face, which looked very ugly.

Seeing his dead look, Du He really wanted to beat him up. It was really true that he hadn't been punished for three days and the pain had been forgotten now that the wound had healed.

You are the Phoenix!

Mr. Du is so handsome, he is definitely the handsome and elegant Wolong.

However, Fang Yiai is here to cause trouble again, and Du He is sure to fulfill his wish.

Du He stood up with a smile on his face: "Fang Yi loves you, don't worry, I will definitely suggest to the prince to bring you along, so that you can see me every day."

"Tsk tsk, you are big and strong, it would be very suitable for you to be a vanguard."

Du He patted his shoulder with an expression that said, "I'm very optimistic about you." "Work hard on practicing your martial arts in the next few months. I look forward to seeing you perform well on the battlefield!"

"Du He, you..."

Fang Yiai's face changed.

Being a pioneer in an unfamiliar place like Goguryeo would easily lead to being surrounded and attacked by the enemy, and the death rate would be too high.

Du He is such a cruel person.

I just wanted to laugh at you, but you wanted to kill me!

Now is not the time to act on impulse. If Du He really proposes this to the Crown Prince, and then finds a few excuses to tell His Majesty, it will be difficult for him to refuse.

Hey, why do I have to be so mean and provoke Du He?

Regret...

Fang Yiai smiled awkwardly and said with a stuttering voice, "Du He, I appreciate your kindness, but I'll leave this opportunity to make a contribution to others."

"I am not good at martial arts. Going to the battlefield would only bring shame to the prince. I'd better stay in Chang'an and cheer for you."

After saying that, he wanted to grease the soles of his shoes and run away.

"and many more."

Du He stopped him and shook his head, saying, "Fang Yiai, you are too modest. You are tall, mighty, strong and powerful. If you don't serve the country, wouldn't that be a waste of talent?"

"I have reserved a pioneer spot for you in advance, so that you can make more contributions and be promoted to a higher position than Fang Sikong in the future."

Fang Yiai's face turned dark.

He knows his own worth. Wouldn't it be a fantasy for him to surpass his father's achievements?

Although your cake sounds delicious, it is impossible to eat it.

The more Fang Yiai looked at Du He, the more she felt that he was not a good person.

He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but his mind is so vicious!

Fang Yiai whispered, "Du He, don't be fooled by my tall stature. I'm just a bunch of flabby flesh. I might not even be as strong as you."

To prove it, he rolled up his sleeves and pinched the loose flesh on his arms.

At this time, several fifth-rank officials who usually sat at the back of the Taiji Hall during court saw Fang Yiai posing and showing off his muscles.

Several people looked at each other, then walked forward tacitly.

"Prince Consort Fang, are you posing?"

"Prince Consort Fang looks quite muscular and strong."

"You are right. I think some generals are not as strong as our Prince Consort."

"Prince Consort Fang is both a scholar and a warrior, he is truly a role model for our generation!"

"Fang Sikong's teaching is great!"

In order to curry favor with Fang Yiai, these officials lied with their eyes open without blushing or getting angry.

Unfortunately, this time they hit the wrong target.

Fang Yiai glared at them fiercely: "What are you talking about? Get out of here!"

Praising him so much, isn't this harming him?

"Prince Consort Fang, let's get out of here now."

Seeing Fang Yiai getting angry, the officials' faces changed and they bowed their heads to apologize.

After showing off his power, Fang Yiai turned to look at Du He, and his angry face instantly turned into a smile.

"Du He, just treat it as if I just farted and didn't say anything."

"I have something else to do, so I'll go down first. See you tomorrow."

Fang Yiai started running after he finished speaking, but after taking a few steps, he was still very worried.

So he stopped, turned around and said reluctantly: "Du He, I still have a glass you left behind last time. I will ask the servants to send it to Princess Chengyang's mansion after the shift is over."

After saying this, he left the Tai Chi Hall with a pained heart.

He bought that piece of glass from the Hu merchant at a huge price. He originally wanted to give it to Gunali, but Gao Yang betrayed him. Now the glass has become a bargain for Du He.

But if I don't send him something, I'm afraid he will retaliate.

Hey ~

I will cry if I continue.

...

Wude Hall.

After the court was dismissed, Wei Ting and Du Chuke rushed to find Li Tai and reported to him the good news that Li Chengqian was leading the expedition to Goguryeo.

"Great, great, this is great news!"

Upon hearing the news that Li Chengqian was taking command, Li Tai could no longer sit still. He paced back and forth in the hall excitedly.

"I never thought that the prince would make so many stupid moves!"

Li Tai was worried that he could not find out about the Eastern Palace's innovation in printing technology, but he did not expect that the prince would take the initiative to jump into the fire pit.

The advantage is mine, the advantage is mine!

Li Tai wanted to sing a song to vent his inner happiness.

After the excitement subsided, Li Tai asked doubtfully, "Didn't Du He stand up to dissuade my father?"

Du He has become much smarter now, and Li Tai also takes him seriously.

Logically speaking, as the prince's number one lackey, Du He should have done everything he could to dissuade the prince from taking the risk.

Wei Ting sneered and said, "Your Highness, maybe it was Du He's bad idea that the crown prince led the expedition to Goguryeo."

"That guy has a lot of knowledge, but his ambition is higher than the sky."

There have been countless people with high aspirations but poor skills from ancient times to the present. Without exception, they are mediocre people who mislead the monarch.

Du Chuke also said with disdain: "Your Highness, I watched my nephew grow up. He is neither good at literature nor martial arts."

"They are no match for Your Highness in governing the country and keeping the people safe, so they have the evil intention of accumulating prestige in the army."

"Nothing to worry about!"

Du Chuke's impression of Du He is still the same as in the past.

Even though Du He invented pinyin and dictionaries, he still looked down on his nephew.
