Chapter 285

"It's fine!" Cheng Yaojin followed Li Jing into the hall of Duke Wei's mansion, put the wine on the table, and began to open the mud seal.

"We are worried that you think too much, and even worry that you will go to His Majesty to argue, but you must be able to understand that you have been the coach of several wars of destroying the country, and the left and right military guards are now at your disposal. Everyone will be afraid of you."

"Okay, let's not talk about the delicious food and wine today." Li Jing laughed and filled the wine for the old brothers himself.

"Actually, I'm really fine. Just now the crown prince sent me a poem, let's encourage you all."

Li Jing picked up the wine glass, with a solemn expression on his face, and said slowly: "It's not my intention to be granted the title of Marquis. I hope the sea will be peaceful!"

"Hmm?" Hou Junji, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde's eyes widened upon hearing this poem from Li Jing's mouth.

Although the three princes are all leaders in the army, they are actually introverted, masters of thick and thin. They can't understand the deep meaning of such an obvious poem.

Hou Junji gulped it down, "His Royal Highness, this poem is delicious enough, Lao Li, it seems that we are overthinking, you should also take a long-term view, don't worry about short-term gains and losses, just like what is said in this poem .”

Li Jing nodded slightly, "That's right. His Royal Highness asked me what was the original intention of joining the army. The old man didn't answer at that time. After the crown prince said this poem, the old man came to his senses. It seems that the old man himself also thought about it before." Got it."

Cheng Yaojin picked up the wine glass, nodded repeatedly and said: "You can think like this, it's really good, come on, let's toast the prince with this glass, let's do it!"

"It's done!" Everyone picked up their wine glasses and drank it all in one gulp. The atmosphere in Duke Wei's mansion gradually became lively.

On the other side, in the imperial study room, it was already midnight, and Li Shimin still had not slept peacefully.

Li Junxian stood at the head of Li Shimin, and respectfully reported: "The situation is like this. The Minister of the Ministry of War, Lu Guogong, and E Guogong are in Wei Guogong's mansion. They have been drinking with Wei Guogong until now. It seems that they are going to continue drinking. That's why the subordinate came back to report."

"Duke Wei looks the same, but..."

"But what?" Li Shimin frowned. He took away Li Jing's Tiger Talisman today just to see what Li Jing would do.

Surprisingly, Li Jing didn't do anything, but drank with Cheng Yaojin's group until now. Is this really sad, or is he planning to give up on himself, or is he deliberately paralyzing himself?
Cheng Yaojin and Hou Junji's gang are all military bosses, they are a bunch of duplicity guys, Li Shimin is very clear about this.

That's why he arranged for Baiqisi to keep an eye on Duke Wei's mansion, so when Li Junxian said that there was an accident, Li Shimin suddenly became vigilant, as if he was facing an enemy.

Li Junxian felt the evil spirit coming from Li Shimin, and hurriedly replied: "At the beginning of drinking, the princes mentioned the prince, saying that the prince sent Wei Guogong a poem, and asked Wei Guogong when he joined the army. What is your original intention?"

"Huh? How did Li Jing answer the prince? What does the poem say?" Li Shimin's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't expect that the prince would also get involved in it. When did they get together?

"Duke Wei didn't answer the prince at that time. The prince's poem is just a few words. I don't want to be a Marquis. I hope Haibo will be peaceful!"

Hearing Li Junxian's words, Li Shimin's pupils, which had just constricted, suddenly dilated, and he stood up abruptly, his eyes fixed on Li Junxian in front of him, but the pupils gradually lost their focus.

I don't want to be named Marquis, but I hope Hai Bo is at peace!I really didn't expect that my own prince is not only amazingly talented, but also so transparent in seeing things. This time about Li Jing's matter, I am a villain in vain!

Li Fu's poem greatly eased the conflict between Li Shimin and Li Jing.

In the following days, Li Jing still behaved up and down, as if nothing had happened.

Li Shimin was still enthusiastic about Li Jing, except that Li Jing was not promoted to a noble, but he was rewarded with a lot of gold, silver and jewels.

However, in the Chongwen Hall, Kong Yingda hadn't been to court for several days. This descendant of the sage Kong has recently become indifferent to food and drink, and his whole person has become extremely depressed.

The masters of Chongwenguan couldn't stand it anymore, and they couldn't persuade them well, so they could only ask Li Gang to persuade them.

Since Li Gang got Li Fu's advice, he has not been in the Chongwen Museum or the Hongwen Museum during these days, but has been staying in Wei Wangfu, studying the way of calculation with Li Tai.

"What's the situation? Kong Yingda hasn't eaten for a few days. What does he want to do? Just because of those couplets? As for?"

Li Gang couldn't help shaking his head after hearing what the reporter said, and hurried back to the Chongwen Museum with the reporter.

Rushing back to Chongwen Hall, Li Gang looked at Kong Yingda, who was already thin and disfigured, and then looked at the white paper in front of him. Li Fu's three eternal sentences could not help but hold his forehead.

The master of the Chongwen Museum said to Li Gang helplessly: "Master Li, look, Confucius has been like this since he came back from the court that day. Except for writing these three couplets, he didn't move. He didn't even eat. Stop eating!"

Li Gang shook his head and sighed, "What's the point? There are talented people coming out from generation to generation, and the blue is better than the blue. This is obviously a good thing. Why can't you figure it out, old Kong?"

"The prince is so smart, not as incompetent as we have seen. This is a blessing for my people in the Tang Dynasty. Old Kong, you are so good!"

Li Gang talked for a long time, but Kong Yingda still didn't respond at all. The master of Chongwen Museum became anxious when he saw this, "Master Li, look, what should we do, if Confucius continues like this..."

Li Gang waved his hand and interrupted: "It's because the three couplets have stirred up inner demons. That's all. I'll go to the East Palace and ask the prince for advice on what the second couplet of the three couplets is."

"I believe that if the second couplet has the answer, Lao Kong's heart knot will be untied, and he should be able to recover."

Afterwards, Li Gang went straight to the East Palace, and after receiving permission from the notification, he entered the backyard of the East Palace, and saw Li Fu who was still sleeping on the shaker.

Seeing Li Fu's relaxed look, Li Gang felt how unfair this world is!

Kong Yingda and herself are both very old, and they have spent almost all their lives trying to learn, but they have achieved almost nothing.

Especially Kong Yingda, who is very old and does not think about food or tea for the sake of three couplets, while Li Fu is obviously full of talents and can be called a genius, but at such a young age, he only thinks about comfort and enjoyment every day. This is really...

Thinking of this, Li Gang couldn't help feeling sad, and shouted at Li Fu full of grief and indignation: "His Royal Highness, you are so comfortable!"
