Li Shi Min stood still and finally came back to his senses. Thinking of the embarrassment he had just made, his face couldn't help but turn red. After all, he was the Emperor of the Tang Empire. He quickly calmed down and looked at Li Dun with a calm gaze.
However, he realized that Li Dun had his head lowered, not daring to look at him.
Li Shi Min frowned. The anger that had just surfaced in his heart instantly disappeared and he sighed.
This child was still the same as when they attacked three years ago. He was self-abased, timid, and cowardly.
Little did he know that at this moment, Li Dun was chatting fervently in the Emperor's chat group.
"Li You, stand down!"
Suddenly, Li Shiming glared at King Qi. Seeing Li You's face turn pale and his head lowered, he coldly said,
"No matter what, Li Dun is still your brother. What do you mean by that? Brothers quarreling, was the disaster of the previous dynasty not enough to serve as a warning? If there are such comments again, you don't have to participate in the school examination this time!”
Li Er hated the internal strife between brothers.
He wasn't just referring to the incident of the previous Sui Dynasty, but he also didn't want the incident at Xuanwu Gate to happen again. Once was enough. If it happened again, the Great Tang wouldn't be able to withstand such a huge change, no matter how good its fate was.
"Father is right."
Li You didn't expect his good intentions to turn into an ear-piercing sound in his father's ears.
He did not expect that he would scold him in front of all his royal brothers. He felt wronged and resentful.
Li You's eyes were filled with unwillingness, but he did not dare to raise his head to let his father notice. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth."I don't dare to say this again."
"Li Dun, you sit back down too."
Li Er looked at his Ninth Prince with a much gentler gaze. He pointed to an empty table next to the other princes and said earnestly,
"You are my child, the prince of Li Tang. You are not an ordinary person. Although you have suffered outside for many years, now that you have entered the palace, you don't have to suffer as you did in the past.”
Li Dun nodded slightly but did not say anything.
He was still the same. Li Er looked at his wooden appearance and felt a little helpless. However, he also understood that this could not be changed overnight. Only by being influenced by him would he become confident.
Li Er would not have thought that Li Dun simply did not want to talk to him.
After all the princes were seated at the tables, Li Er glanced at everyone and said calmly,"
"Since all of you are here, I will begin the school examination.”
"If you were the emperor of Li Tang, how would you make the country rich and the people strong?”
The country was rich and the people were strong?
This was a big question.
The princes immediately fell into deep thought and did not dare to speak rashly.
Only Crown Prince Li Chengqian's expression became extremely unnatural as he pondered. His palm that was placed under the table was tightly clenched into a fist, and his fingernails were almost embedded into his skin.
What do you mean if you are the emperor of Li Tang?
Here, I am the Crown Prince! I am the future emperor!
Li Chengqian forced himself to reveal more unnatural expressions, but he was roaring hysterically in his heart. This school examination should only be targeted at him alone. Why should all the princes participate?
If he wanted to take the school exam, why didn't he ask other questions?
Why did it have to be such a question!
Li Shi Min sat back on the throne, his eyes burning as he looked at all the princes.
Although the Crown Prince concealed his facial expression very well, Li Er could still see some resentment on the Crown Prince's face and secretly shook his head.
This Crown Prince still didn't understand his father's heart.
The Crown Prince was the heir to the throne of a country, so how could he be changed so easily? Li Chengqian was the Crown Prince, and he announced it to the world, which was enough to explain the Emperor's thoughts.
But this was not enough!
Li Shiming let out a sigh of relief. This was not enough. The ruler of a country was not someone who could be found in a pool. He had to have some achievements in the field of civil administration and martial arts. He had to have some understanding of everything. Otherwise, how could he shoulder the burden of the entire country?
This school examination seemed to be testing all the princes!
In reality, he was testing Li Chengqian!
Li Shi Min believed that people would only grow in difficult situations.
There were so many princes eyeing the position of Crown Prince in the Eastern Palace. As long as Li Chengqian understood the logic behind it, as long as he understood that he could use his talent and ability to suppress all the princes, not to mention the position of Crown Prince, even the future throne of the dragon would be for him!
"Li Dun…"
Suddenly, Li Er stared at the illegitimate child sitting behind a few tables with his head lowered and did not say a word. He silently called his name in his heart, and a hint of anticipation flashed across his eyes.
It had been three years…
He had been in the palace for three whole years!
Although he was illiterate and had no achievements in his studies, the palace was a place that could change anyone. With so many people helping him, he should be able to teach a satisfactory answer.
Take out all your abilities and let me take a good look.
Li Er muttered to himself. In these three years, let me see what skills you have learned in the palace.
At this moment, Li Dun's loud voice resounded in the Emperor's chat group.
"Emperors, it's time for your performance!”
