"Ah?"
Cheng Chumo was stunned by Li Er's question.
What happened last night?
Didn't he want to ask about what happened this morning? What did it have to do with last night?
" Your Majesty, Miss Lianshui and I…"
" Your Majesty, Miss Huaguo and I…"
Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin spoke almost at the same time.
"You two shut up."
"Zhen…wants to hear Chumo say.”
"Tell me, do you have any suggestions for me, or did that person say something to you?”
"Yesterday, if I remember correctly, you should have entered Miss Ming Yue's room at around midnight.”
Li Er folded his hands and said with a smile.
Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin glanced at Cheng Chumo from the corner of their eyes, not daring to speak.
At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief.
His Majesty was not here to ask him.
However, what did Cheng Chumo do last night? He actually let His Majesty interrogate him like this.
Wasn't it just drinking wine? Who hadn't been to the court?
What kind of big deal could this be?
The two of them were confused.
However, Cheng Chumo's heart was already in turmoil.
Was His Majesty interrogating him?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
He kowtowed heavily again and did not speak immediately, leaving himself a little time to react. After waiting for a while, he slowly said,"Your Majesty, I was invited yesterday. Miss Mingyue followed another person.”
Cheng Chumo didn't mention Li Feng.
He didn't know what the Emperor was thinking about, whether it was good or bad. If he were to reveal everything rashly, he was afraid that he would accidentally harm his big brother.
Li Er narrowed his eyes.
"Continue."
"Your Majesty, please sit!" Cheng Yaojin hurriedly brought a stool over and placed it behind Li Er. Then, he didn't forget to kick Cheng Chumo.
"His Majesty is asking you a question. Hurry up and say it properly!”
"It's okay. Let the child think about it first.”Li Er sat down and said indifferently.
"Yes, sir!"
Cheng Yaojin quickly responded and slowly returned to his seat.
He glanced at Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong, and both of them shook their heads.
His Majesty was acting strangely.
What was going on?
This child was just drinking wine. Why was His Majesty personally interrogating him?
Shouldn't it be what happened outside the Bright Moon Pavilion this morning?
Cheng Yaojin rubbed his thighs and looked up at Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui.
The three of them smiled and nodded.
This made Cheng Yaojin even more confused.
Looking at the three of them, they should be fine.
However, Li Er's attitude was so shocking.
The Dew Palace was silent.
Only Cheng Chumo's heavy breathing could be heard.
"Your Majesty, the other person is the young man who shone brilliantly at the Chang 'an Poetry Meet and was crowned as the Three Saints in One! Coincidentally, I was with him last night. At that time, I said that whoever could gain Miss Ming Yue's appreciation would definitely be invited to have a toast.”
"Last night…I wanted to come out after a toast, but I didn't expect the Sage of Poets to be so familiar with me at first sight. We chatted happily and it was already late at night.”
" When I came out in the morning, what happened…"
"I don't want to hear it when you come out. Tell me something that I don't know. For example, what did you talk about last night?”Li Er asked again.
"This…"
Cheng Chumo's heart tightened.
Yesterday, he knew that Li Feng directly addressed His Majesty as Li Er!'
This was a very disrespectful form of address.
Moreover, he didn't take His Majesty seriously.
Could it be that there was a barrier between Big Brother and His Majesty? Or did Big Brother not like His Majesty at all? Was His Majesty interrogating him just to get hold of Big Brother's weakness?
Thinking of this, Cheng Chumo broke out in cold sweat!
Yes!
With Big Brother's talent, His Majesty would definitely know of his existence.
It was just that Big Brother had always been unrestrained and had provoked the Emperor.
His Majesty wanted to find out the loophole in Big Brother's plan…and then…punish him!
"Your Majesty!"
"Under the moon and under the flowers, poetry, music, drum music. There are too many discussions and too many miscellaneous things.”
Cheng Chumo said in a deep voice.
"Haha…"
"Is that so?"
"I see. That's normal.”
Li Er stood up and returned to the top.
However, Cheng Yaojin's eyes immediately lowered.
This kid was hiding something from him!
Anything was possible. Poetry? Absolutely not!
He was very clear about this kid's level!
It was a big crime to expire, but Cheng Yaojin knew Cheng Chumo well. He must have something to hide.
"However, Chumo, I heard from Zhijie that you can't even read books, so how can you know poetry?”Li Er sat on the throne and looked at him." Is it because he is the Sage of Poetry that you are enlightened and understand everything?" Otherwise, how could you have a good time talking to him about this?”
Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo were sweating profusely.
"Your Majesty!"
Cheng Chumo raised his head." Your Majesty, a scholar should be treated differently after three days of separation. Now, I can read all the classics!"”
"Oh? Hahaha…"
Li Er was amused.
He knew that Cheng Chumo was with Li Feng yesterday. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked about what happened last night.
This kid was really stubborn.
Was he protecting Feng 'er?
That's right, with Feng 'er's mouth, she must have said a lot of bad things about him yesterday. Cheng Chumo was probably afraid that it would be bad for Li Feng!
This child recognized Feng 'er as his big brother. He was really loyal!
Li Er smiled and glanced at Cheng Yaojin. Heh, he was quite similar to his father. It was really not bad for Feng 'er to have such a little brother.
However, this glance frightened Cheng Yaojin.
What is Your Majesty doing?
Oh my god!
Frightening!
"Alright then. Someone, bring the book over and let Commandant Cheng read it.”
Li Er said with a smile.
Soon, a eunuch placed the book in front of Cheng Chumo.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty…Chumo really doesn't know anything about politics. Don't listen to his nonsense.”
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but kneel beside Cheng Chumo.
"We should treat each other differently after three days of separation!”
"State Duke Lu, you really don't understand Chumo.”
Li Er wanted to see what Cheng Chumo had learned from Feng 'er.
Studying?
Humph!
He also knew Cheng Chumo's ability.
Studying? A long-standing problem!
" Your Majesty, Chumo…" Cheng Yaojin was about to say something when he suddenly raised his head."Your Majesty, do you have a pen?"
" I…" Cheng Yaojin suddenly turned his head and stared at Cheng Chumo. This silly child, can't you see that your father is pleading for you?
Still pretending?
Pretend!
Why don't you just tell me what happened yesterday honestly!
If he was not careful, he would be crushed into pieces!
However, Cheng Yaojin couldn't say these words out loud. He could only show them with his crazy eyes.
Unfortunately…
Cheng Chumo ignored him.
He took a deep breath, his heart surging. He felt that this was the perfect time to voice his big brother's suggestion!
In this way, once His Majesty was happy, he would definitely not pursue his brother's rash words last night.
"Good!"
"Brush, ink, paper, inkstone, give them all to him."
Li Er waved his hand.
Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong sat there, feeling a little uneasy.
What was he doing?
F * ck!
Why couldn't he understand?
His Majesty's thoughts and Cheng Chumo's thoughts…
What were these two up to?
" Chumo…" Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin reminded him through their teeth.
Cheng Chumo took a deep breath and was a little nervous.
He picked up a pen and thought about the punctuations that Li Feng had taught him yesterday. He marked them one by one.
He held the book and recited it several times in his heart.
Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Duke and Rong formed an alliance with Tang to repair the old friendship. In winter, Duke Huan of Qi returned from the Tang Dynasty and went to the ancestral temple to offer sacrifices. All public affairs, in the ancestral temple sacrifice. When you return, drink wine, give up your title, and make contributions."
Every word and pause, Yin and Yang fell.
Cheng Chumo was silent and read aloud.
Silence!
Silence!
A pin drop could be heard!
Only Cheng Chumo's voice echoed in the hall.
Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin were speechless.??????
The two brothers, one on the left and the other on the right, turned their heads to look at Cheng Yaojin's appearance. They were completely dumbfounded.
Dumbfounded!
F * ck!
What the hell!
They all knew Cheng Chumo's level. They remembered that the three of them had gathered together yesterday afternoon to discuss who would come. However, at that time, the three of them were equally skilled. They could suffocate a person to death just by studying.
And now…
After three days of separation, no, after one night of separation, you will have a new look!
Amazing.
It was unbelievable.
When did this kid secretly learn this difficult problem?
Not loyal!
He was too disloyal.
The two of them widened their eyes.
Cheng Yaojin, who was kneeling in front of him, also turned his head and stared at Cheng Chumo, who was serious. Tears streamed down his face and he was extremely excited.
Tired my ass!
The heavens had eyes!
My Old Cheng family also has a scholar?
" My son, my son…" Cheng Yaojin was trembling.
He couldn't control himself.
"Yi Ren appointed his younger brother E Hou. Lord E gave birth to Lord Ai. Duke Ai invaded the fields of Xingting. The southern border of Xingting opened Quwo to attack the wing."
Cheng Chumo finished reading the last sentence and put the book on the ground solemnly.
"Your Majesty, I've finished reading." Cheng Chumo said.
"Ah?"
"Oh!"
"Hmm…"
Li Er's spirit jolted as he realized that he had actually been brought into this. He had never experienced this kind of reading before.
It was too good.
And every pause seemed to be magical.
Even his tone had changed.
For example, Cheng Chumo used a questioning tone.
There was another sentence that suddenly became more serious. It seemed to be very shocking!
It was not like how they usually read in the same tone and were extremely stiff!
"This…Chumo, good, good!!!!”
"As expected, a scholar should be treated differently after three days of separation!”
"Alright, alright, alright!"
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Li Er praised repeatedly.
Zhangsun Wuji and the others stood at the side, stretching their heads out. Their eyes were filled with doubt.
"It seems that our Great Tang will produce another great general in the future!”
"Chumo, you did well. As a general, you can't not study in the future.”
Li Er said softly.
"Your Majesty, I naturally know.”
"Therefore, I have one more thing to report to Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please allow it!"
Cheng Chumo kowtowed and said.
He wanted to take the opportunity to tell them about the establishment of the martial sciences.
This was an opportunity that could not be missed!
"Haha, just say it!" Li Er nodded.
Didn't this brat still say it?
Li Er's intuition told him that Cheng Chumo's change was related to Li Feng.
Otherwise, Cheng Chumo wouldn't have been so loyal to Li Feng.
What method could make Cheng Chumo transform like this?
Li Er was curious, but he suppressed it now.
He wanted to see what else Cheng Chumo had to say.
"Your Majesty, next spring, the imperial examinations will begin. All scholars in the world will be able to participate in the examinations. Those who pass will be ranked in the imperial court and soar into the sky!”
"This is a blessing for the entire world, and also for His Majesty.”
"With foresight and talent, the Great Tang will become even stronger!”
"However, Your Majesty, I think that there is still something inappropriate.”
Cheng Chumo kowtowed again.
At the side, Zhangsun Wuji and the other two's eyes narrowed.
Was he attacking the imperial examinations?
What was this kid trying to do?
Even Cheng Yaojin was shocked.
"Shut up!"
"His Majesty is holding the imperial examinations for the sake of the world, for the sake of the people, and for the sake of the court. There is no harm in doing so. How dare you evaluate it in good faith?”
"When we get home, you'll be grounded for a year!”
Cheng Yaojin shouted.
Li Er narrowed his eyes.
"Continue."
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Chumo exhaled." Your Majesty, the Duke of Lu said that there are only benefits and no harm. I don't agree."”
Li Er's eyes twitched.
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui: ??!!??!!??!!
Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde: ??!!??!!??!!
Qin Huaidao and Yuchi Baolin were about to cover their mouths.
These words…
However, Cheng Chumo had already said it.
"This subject believes that this plan is not a good thing for the generals of the Great Tang!”
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde directly knelt on the ground.
What was this kid trying to do?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we never had such thoughts.”
"Chumo, Chumo must have been bewitched and deceived! He is still young, please don't blame him, Your Majesty!”
Cheng Yaojin shouted.
He was anxious.
This time, he was really anxious.
What did that mean?
Wasn't this asking Li Er for power openly?
You are a general who leads an army. What do you want to do by taking the initiative to ask for power?
Li Er stared at Cheng Chumo.
His hand tapped the table lightly.
"Continue…Speak!"
Good boy! What nonsense did Langjun teach him yesterday?
Zhangsun Wuji looked at Cheng Chumo expectantly.
It sounded like Langjun had said this. Only Langjun could point out such a terrifying problem. Otherwise, Cheng Chumo would be…Haha, eight lifetimes!
"Kid, watch your words!" Qin Qiong immediately reminded.
"Don't get agitated, don't get agitated." Yuchi Jingde hurriedly reminded.
Cheng Chumo closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
He knew that his big brother was right.
However, it would definitely be painful to execute it.
But for the future of the Great Tang, he had to say it.
