"Li Siye, if you don't mind, why don't I write a preface for the Tang Dynasty Dictionary and publish it in the newspaper for publicity?"
Seeing Ma Zhou leave, Li Gang put down his wine cup and took the opportunity to suggest to Li Zexuan.
This was what he wanted to talk to Li Zexuan about today. Scholars loved fame. Even though Li Gang had retired for a long time, he still couldn't help but want to leave his mark on the Tang Dynasty Dictionary, an epoch-making masterpiece that would be passed down through the ages.
When Li Zexuan heard this, he smiled knowingly and said, "What are you saying, Old Mister? If you're willing to write, I'm more than happy to oblige!"
As the teacher of the two crown princes, Li Gang was naturally knowledgeable. His social status was also very respected. He could be considered one of the old scholars. Even Li Er had to be respectful to him. If such a big shot wanted to take the initiative to publicize the Tang Dynasty Dictionary, only a fool would refuse.
"Haha! You brat! "
Li Gang laughed heartily. He pointed at Li Zexuan and said,
"I heard that you learned martial arts in Longhu Mountain for eight years. But since you came back, Chang 'an has been particularly lively this year. For example, scooters, curved plows, Datang Daily, Drunken Immortal, and so on. There are all kinds of things to eat, drink, play, use, and see. It can be said that there are all kinds of things."
"Although I am idle at home, I can feel the changes outside. I have heard your story many times. Today I see you, but I didn't expect you to be so young. The younger generation will surpass us in time ~!"
Li Zexuan cupped his hands and said modestly, "You flatter me!"
Li Gang said with a faint smile, "Haha! I am not praising you! I want to ask, what did your master, Spiritual Master Lingxu, teach you? You brat, how did you get so many strange things?! "
Li Zexuan was speechless. It turned out that the old man said so much to make fun of him!
"Oh, by the way, I heard from a good friend that you were jointly impeached by eight doctors of the Imperial College. How is it now?"
Li Gang saw Li Zexuan's dejected expression and knew when to stop. He stopped joking and said seriously.
"Well, there is nothing on His Majesty's side, but Chancellor Kong reprimanded me!"
Li Zexuan thought and said.
"Oh? Why is that? Tell me about it. "
Li Gang showed an interested expression and asked.
Once a person got older, they would generally be more open-minded about personal gains and losses. But instead, they would become more gossipy. To be specific, they would be like Li Gang. They would be very open-minded, but they would be especially interested in other people's affairs.
Li Zexuan was helpless and could only briefly tell Li Gang about the recent happenings in the imperial court and the Imperial College. Li Gang listened with great interest. After listening, he stroked his beard and shook his head.
"Zhong Da (Kong Yingda, courtesy name Zhong Da) is the Chancellor, so it's understandable for him to do this. However, it's a little unreasonable. Li Siye, since you joined the Institute of Mathematics, you've made some contributions to the Imperial College. Even I have heard a little about your contributions. Zhong Da's behavior is somewhat disappointing! Next time when I drink with him, I will help you talk to him. "
Li Zexuan was stunned. He did not expect Li Gang to be so open-minded. It was indeed rare for him to look at this problem from a completely fair point of view.
"Haha, thank you for your kind intentions! But there is no need for this! This little one has already resigned from His Majesty yesterday. In the future, I will no longer hold the position of Minister of Mathematics! "
To tell the truth, if Kong Yingda had been like Li Gang at the start, even if the Imperial College had a backstabbing villain like Cui Shanyou, Li Zexuan would still be willing to stay and lead the Imperial College to a new life. But there were no ifs in reality. Now that he had decided to set up his own school, there was no point in talking about this.
"What ~?"
Li Gang's eyes widened and he cried out in disbelief. Then he said somewhat bitterly:
"Foolish! Foolish! How can you give up on your students because of a momentary dispute? Don't you plan on continuing the knowledge that your master passed on to you? "
.....
"General Yuchi, this subordinate brought people to investigate the houses of the eight victims yesterday and found that almost all of it was the feces of the waiters. Moreover, according to the descriptions of the servants of these families, the feces should have all been taken before five in the morning. At that time, everyone was still dreaming!"
East of the Imperial Palace, Right Marquis Wei Manor.
Chicken Bro bowed and handed over a page of the dossier.
"Mm ~! Then did you bring people to ambush and capture people in those places in advance this morning? "
Yuchi Jingde sat at the head of the table and didn't take the file. He just glanced at it casually and then asked in a rough voice.
"Re … Replying to General, this subordinate brought people to ambush near the houses of the eight doctors at five in the morning this morning. In the end … In the end, we didn't find anything strange until dawn! This subordinate reckons that they should … should not come again! "
Brother Chicken felt even more pressure. He didn't know if Yuchi Jingde would punish him for incompetence because of this. His forehead was so nervous that sweat seeped out.
Huff ~!
He didn't know if he was hallucinating, but Brother Chicken vaguely heard the sound of exhalation. Then, he heard Yuchi Jingde say, "Mm ~! Then did you go door to door nearby and ask if any child came out and took a dump in front of the houses of Dr. Cui and the others two days ago? "
"Replying to General, this subordinate has checked, but basically every family said with certainty that their child definitely didn't go out in the morning!"
Brother Chicken was fully prepared and hurriedly answered.
Li Zexuan had allocated a lot of "activity funds" back this time. In the houses where the eight doctors lived, all the families with children were basically hired by Li Zexuan. At this time, who would jump out to admit their guilt!
The atmosphere in the hall became very oppressive for a moment. Just as Brother Chicken thought that he would definitely be punished this time and muttered in his heart that Ma Zhou's previous analysis was too deceptive, Yuchi Jingde finally spoke.
"Mm ~! Since that's the case, then this case will end like this! Go file the file and inform the eight doctors. Tell them the results of Wu Houwei's investigation. It's not that we don't want to help them investigate, but that the murderer is too cunning and no longer appears! Wu Houfu still has many other things to do. We can't keep wasting time on this! "
Brother Chicken heard this and was instantly pleasantly surprised. He hurriedly said, "Yes! General! "
After saying that, he prepared to go to Wu Houfu's archive.
"Wait!"
Yuchi Jingde called out.
"What other instructions does General have?"
"This time, you did very well! Alright, you can go now! "
Yuchi Jingde glanced at Brother Ji, speaking meaningfully and tacitly.
"Yes, Sir!"
Brother Chicken was so excited that he almost jumped up and hurriedly retreated!
Looks like Steward Ma's analysis is pretty good! General Yuchi sent me to investigate the case. As expected, it was just a formality! Steward Ma is amazing! This time, I must treat him to a big meal and repay him well!
Brother Chicken silently praised in his heart.
