It had been almost a month since the Crown Prince Zhan case.
Although the Ministry of Justice was still investigating the mastermind behind the scenes, all their actions had been moved to the shadows.
The prosperous Chang 'an had gradually forgotten about this matter.
The items had been sold in the East City for more than ten days.
After a generous rich young lady bought it once, her circle of sisters exploded!
The effect of the new rouge was so magical that it was simply a miracle!
Then, the neighboring circles exploded one after another…
Foundation was already quite famous, and most importantly, it was hard to tell that one was wearing makeup.
Even if it made a woman beautiful, it was still natural beauty.
Every day, there would be rich young ladies who came specially for this.
Li Chengqian felt that the progress was quite good and there was no need to do too many actions.
Let it spread slowly first…
His days were quite free again, and he raised some flowers and plants in the courtyard.
He even brought Qiu Wansu along and taught her how to water the flowers and take care of them.
To outsiders, the two of them were living a leisurely and comfortable life.
However, Qiu Wansu was actually very vigilant every day.
Li Chengqian's flowers and plants were the foundation of his tinkering. If he did not take good care of them, the things he made would not be good.
Ever since she used the new cosmetics made by Li Chengqian, she had thrown away all the original rouge and cosmetic powder.
One day, his uncle Zhangsun Wuji suddenly came looking for him.
He told Li Chengqian something bad!
"The killer of the Crown Prince Zhan Shi case has finally found the mastermind behind the scenes!”
Zhangsun Wuji said solemnly in the sealed room.
Li Chengqian was surprised." Who is it?!”
"He said it was you!"
Zhangsun Wuji stared straight at Li Chengqian.
Hmm…The atmosphere froze.
Li Chengqian smiled.
" He said it was me. Where's the evidence?"
Zhangsun Wuji shook his head." If he had concrete evidence, I wouldn't be the one looking for you now.”
He felt that Li Chengqian's reaction after hearing this was very normal. It seemed that this case had nothing to do with him.
However, not everyone in the court thought so. There were many people who wanted to overthrow the Crown Prince.
"There is a rumor circulating in the court that this matter was all arranged by you, Crown Prince.
Why did you solve the case in half a day? It's because you're the mastermind!
They said that you were deliberately trying to confuse everyone.”
Zhangsun Wuji said in a low voice.
Li Chengqian snorted in dissatisfaction." They're suspected even though they solved the case quickly. Their imagination is really big!”
Zhangsun Wuji said solemnly," Don't underestimate it!
They said it in a convincing manner. Just by looking at the case file, one could indeed see that many places were incomplete.
And you solved the case with so little information. To be honest, even I feel suspicious!”
Li Chengqian frowned slightly…
He did not explain the matter clearly when he solved the case.
On the one hand, he couldn't explain it clearly at that time. On the other hand, there were many things that he couldn't say, so he didn't say it.
He said," I have to admit that the matters in the dossier are all in my heart and I have never said them out loud.
In the end, the arrest was not completely confirmed. It was only after the killer took the initiative to resist that it became clear.”
Zhangsun Wuji continued," In other words, this case was actually solved through the results. Even you don't know the process of the case itself?”
"That's right. You can say that if those seven people didn't take the initiative to attack, I wouldn't have been able to prove that they were the murderers!”
Li Chengqian spread his hands.
To be precise, Li Chengqian was personally certain that they were the murderers!
However, he could not produce any evidence that could convince everyone.
For example, the pool of blood in the courtyard belonged to two people. Without modern equipment, he could not prove it.
Zhangsun Wuji had seen many cases in his life, but this was the first time he had seen such a method of solving a case.
"I can't produce any evidence, but the best evidence is that the seven of them broke out of the encirclement before they were captured. This…is indeed the seven of them foolishly exposing themselves! But…"
He frowned." How are you going to explain to the officials how you found these seven people?”
Regarding this point, Li Chengqian did not intend to explain it in detail at all!
You've already caught him. Isn't that enough? Why do you have to talk so much nonsense!
He sneered." I didn't do anything. An upright person is not afraid of a crooked shadow. Those people can't produce any evidence. They only know how to be suspicious. What's the use of being suspicious?”
Zhangsun Wuji immediately shook his head." That's not true. The rumors will become true as time goes by!
When you commit a crime again, they will bring up this old matter and add another piece to their dark history. At that time, it will be useless to refute!”
Li Chengqian secretly curled his lips. If he really wanted to write a black history for him in the future, it would probably be enough to write a book. Why would he care about this!
Of course, he couldn't say this to Zhangsun Wuji.
He pretended to be serious and said," Thank you for your reminder, Uncle! Chengqian knows."
Zhangsun Wuji nodded and said,
"Your Imperial Father knows that you skip morning classes every day. You should restrain yourself.
Although I also think that reading those books is useless, once it's fermented by someone's heart, it will also have an extremely bad reputation.”
Speaking up to this point, Li Chengqian became a little more serious.
He also felt that it was not a good idea to keep getting someone to replace him. He had to resolve this matter completely!
He thought to himself, I've already learned all 5,000 years of Chinese history. Why would I listen to a sour teacher like you? I'll teach you!
Li Chengqian asked Zhangsun Wuji to stay for a meal. However, the assistant minister was busy every day and ate at his desk. He did not have time to waste time with him.
He came personally today because he was afraid that no one else would be able to persuade this kid!
Li Chengqian couldn't help but sincerely praise the good minister!
Then, he became even more determined not to participate in politics!
……
East Palace Jixue Pavilion
Seeing that it was almost time for morning class, five or six students arrived one after another.
"Yo, the Crown Prince hasn't arrived yet?"
"That's strange, it was already early.”
The six students looked at the empty seats behind the screen and were surprised.
They were all the Crown Prince's study companions and were born into prestigious families. All of them were knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and were known as the Sixth Scholar.
The Crown Prince they were talking about was naturally a fake Crown Prince.
Li Chengqian had invited her to substitute for him!
Now, they didn't even know the meaning of coming here.
The Crown Prince wasn't coming, so why were they still accompanying him?
That was not right. The fake Crown Prince had come.
They sat behind the screen every day. If the teacher came down to check, they had to send the teacher away quickly!
Miraculously, after such a long time had passed and the outside world had been abuzz with the news, the teacher really did not notice anything!
They all felt that it was divine!
He naturally wouldn't be coming today because Li Chengqian came personally!
When he walked into the attic, the Sixth Scholar's eyes widened in surprise.
The Crown Prince was in a good mood today. Why did he want to take a walk here?!
This place was probably not suitable for the Crown Prince to come. Even if he came, he would be sleeping.
After Li Chengqian sat down, he calmly greeted them.
The six of them returned the greeting respectfully. However, they had long defined Li Chengqian as an ignorant and incompetent person in their hearts.
The Headmaster arrived very soon. He was already in his old age, but he was still able to speak fluently.
First, he angrily walked straight behind the screen!
This time, no one could stop him!
This time, no one stopped him. When he saw Li Chengqian come, his expression became a little better.
"Crown Prince, I heard that you called another person to deceive this old master some time ago. Is that true?!”
Li Chengqian said calmly," Nonsense! I came on time every day. I never delayed a day!”
Even the Sixth Scholar felt embarrassed…
Listening to this, the crown prince's expression did not change when he lied, and his expression was calm.
He was really a good liar!
The Headmaster was surprised. Was the King of Wei talking nonsense?
"Alright, Crown Prince. From now on, this old man will come to this screen every day to take a look. If you don't come, be careful of punishment!
This was for the sake of the Great Tang, and the Crown Prince could not take it lightly.”
After lecturing him, he prepared to walk back.
Li Chengqian said," Master, wait! In fact, the student also said that he would not come to class in the future and asked for the teacher's permission.”
" What?!"
The Sixth Scholar was shocked. So the Crown Prince didn't admit defeat.
This time, he couldn't say it!
The Headmaster's face darkened and he turned around. He was about to say something.
Li Chengqian said," In ancient times, two out of three is the highest. Chengqian will do three on the spot. If the Headmaster agrees with the two, please let Chengqian finish his apprenticeship.”
The words that the Headmaster wanted to say were stuck in his throat…
Ha, he was going to finish his apprenticeship in advance!
"Crown Prince, you are ignorant and incompetent all day. Can you do three articles?”
The Headmaster shook his long beard and mocked mercilessly.
"Let's try. Teacher, please give a fair comment.”
Li Chengqian bowed.
"Hmph, this old man has always been fair. How can I be biased here?”
The Headmaster was obviously unhappy." Since you have such intentions, I will fulfill your wish! If the article is too unsightly, don't blame me for speaking bluntly!”
He flicked his sleeve!
Li Chengqian smiled." Teacher, please be frank. No, Teacher must be frank!”
The surrounding Sixth Senior Scholars were all stunned. Where did the Crown Prince's confidence come from?
Even though they were known as the Sixth Scholar, they dared not say that they could produce articles that satisfied the Headmaster.
Where did the Crown Prince get his confidence from?
Of course Li Chengqian had it. All the good articles were in his head!
