Li Shimin Was Dumbfounded!
Taiji Palace.
Zhangsun Wuji and the other two did not say anything else. They looked at Li Daozong, waiting to see what he had to say.
But before Li Daozong could say anything, Li Shiming suddenly coughed twice to show his presence.
The four of them stood up straight in a panic, not daring to ignore Li Shi Min again.
However, they dared to do so because the regulations of the imperial examination system brought by Li Daozong were simply too good. It was simply perfect!
Therefore, they had forgotten that they were currently in Taiji Palace.
Finally, Li Shimin walked down from the hall. Zhangsun Wuji and the others started to read the paper that had the imperial examination system written on it.
When he walked to Li Daozong's side, he said,
"You just said that this imperial examination system wasn't created by you. Then who did it come from?
Li Daozong hurriedly cupped his hands again." Replying to Your Majesty, a few days ago, my daughter embroidered a ball to look for a groom. I was lucky enough to get a son-in-law. It was written by my son-in-law. His surname is Chu, and his name is Yi.”
Boom! As soon as he said this.
Li Shi Min's mind was blown.
Chu Yi wrote it? How was that possible? Chu Yi was just a commoner. How could he write such a thing?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
So he asked again in disbelief,"Chu Yi? Are you sure he wrote it?"
Li Daozong was stunned when he heard this. He did not know why Li Shimin asked this question, but he still cupped his hands and replied,"It was indeed written by my son-in-law." Your Majesty, is there something wrong?”
Li Shi Min's mind was filled with a loud noise. He shook his head and frowned as he stared at the void.
Chu Yi wrote it?
It was really written by Chu Yi.
Could it be that he had misjudged her? Chu Yi's literary talent and military strategy were not as short-sighted as ordinary villagers?
But…
Li Shiming pulled out his memories and carefully recalled the look on Chu Yi's face when he first came to find him. However, no matter how he looked at it, Chu Yi was not that talented.
It was just that she looked a little outstanding.
Could it be that all outstanding people had such literary skills and martial strategies?
Li Shi Min felt even more depressed.
However, when Zhangsun Wuji and the others heard that Li Daozong said that this complete system of the imperial examination system was written by his son-in-law, Chu Yi, they were all stunned.
Zhangsun Wuji reacted faster. He said to Li Daozong," I heard that Princess Xueyan was looking for a groom at the Drunken Immortal Residence a few days ago. Lord Li was happy to have a son-in-law. I didn't expect him to be a talent." Congratulations."
Fang Xuanling also cupped his hands and congratulated him. I would also like to congratulate Lord Li on your marriage.”
"Yes, yes, I'm jealous. If a talented person like your son-in-law is put in an important position, he will definitely be a pillar of our Great Tang in the future.”
Du Ruhui also praised.
Li Daozong instantly felt a golden glow on his face. To put it bluntly, he felt that he had gained a lot of face, and his smile became a little smug.
However, the four of them didn't notice Li Shiming's gloomy face. They kept talking and congratulating him.
Li Shi Min was getting more and more depressed.
"Alright, alright. No matter how good his son-in-law is, it is impossible for him to be yours. All of you can leave.”
The hall instantly became much quieter. Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui left one after another, leaving only Li Daozong and Li Shimin in Taiji Palace.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Li Daozong didn't know why Li Shiming left him alone. Seeing Li Shiming sit down at the table without saying anything for a long time, he carefully cupped his hands and asked,
"Your Majesty, do you have any orders?”
Li Shiming still didn't say anything. He just looked at Li Daozong until he felt his hair stand on end. Then, he said faintly,
"You really didn't lie to me. Chu Yi wrote it?”
Li Daozong was stunned and blinked his eyes. He didn't know why Li Shiming asked this question.
He couldn't help but let his imagination run wild. But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out why Li Shiming kept asking him if it was Chu Yi's doing.
However, the truth was there. No matter how Li Shimin asked, the entire system of the imperial examination system was still written by Chu Yi.
He cupped his hands and replied,"Your Majesty, this is indeed the work of my son-in-law. Could it be that Your Majesty feels that something is wrong?" Or does Your Majesty think that I have deceived Your Majesty?”
Li Shi Min frowned. He never told Li Daozong that Chu Yi and Princess Chang Le had an engagement because of his promise, nor did he tell him that Chu Yi had come to the palace to look for him on the day Li Xue Yan embroidered the ball to find a groom.
He only asked,"Chu Yi is the son-in-law of the Snow Goose Embroidered Ball. He wasn't prepared to marry into the Dongping King's Mansion."
Furthermore, since he had married into Chu Yi's family, Chu Yi's family was definitely not from a wealthy family. He was also not a noble young master from some place. At most, he was just a country boy. How could a country boy write such a long story?”
Li Daozong was stunned again and he couldn't help but think to himself,'His Majesty is really persistent. He really wants to know if this is Chu Yi's policy.'
Furthermore, Li Shiming knew very well that a general like him would never have thought of such a thing. If it wasn't Chu Yi's idea, then who else could it have come from?
Could it be that Chu Yi had stolen someone else's thoughts after they thought of it?
This was even more impossible.
After all, Li Shi Min's intention to let Li Xue Yan go to Tubo for a marriage alliance was well known by all the officials in the court. In order to decline the offer, he had also wantonly sought for a marriage alliance in the Drunken Immortal Residence.
Li Shimin had made it difficult for a general to write a complete set of imperial examination system in three days in front of all the civil and military officials. Wasn't this clearly telling everyone that if he couldn't do it, he would be punished in three days?
With this, who would dare to help him?
Li Daozong didn't know how to explain himself. He opened his mouth for a long time before he said," Your Majesty, although ants are small, they are still meat. You can't look down on Chu Yi just because he comes from the countryside, right?"
Since ancient times, many scholars and capable people had been born poor. Didn't you become famous in the end?"
