717 Chapter 715
Lin Xuan said indifferently: "Don't worry, they are also scholars after all. His Majesty and so many court ministers are here, so they are not so shameless."
There is another reason why Lin Xuan didn't mention it, that is, based on Li Shimin's attitude towards the aristocratic family, this matter will soon be publicized and known to the whole world.
Li Lizhi thought for a while, and felt that what Lin Xuan said made sense, so she put away her worries and said, "Husband, in one month, it will be the wedding date of Yuzhang and Fang Yiai. What do you think we should prepare for?" Congratulations?"
"Has their wedding date been set?" Lin Xuan asked in surprise.
According to the original historical development, Fang Yiai should have married Princess Gaoyang, who was also dubbed the Green Hat King of the Tang Dynasty by later generations.
Princess Yuzhang has a close personal relationship with Li Lizhi, which shows her temperament. After marriage, Fang Yiai's fate will change accordingly.
"My wife is in charge of the family affairs, you just watch halfway." Lin Xuan said.
……
Lin Xuan's guess was correct. The next day, the news about Taihe Academy and more than a dozen academies losing to Boyuan Academy spread throughout Chang'an like wings, and spread to other places at an extremely fast speed.
In a few days, this news will spread throughout Datang.
As the capital city, Chang'an gathered a large number of literati.
When hearing this news, many people immediately did not believe it.
If a few students from Boyuan Academy hadn't been praised by the people for helping people settle accounts some time ago, many of them might have never even heard of Boyuan Academy.
Even though Boyuan Academy has gained some reputation now, no one still takes Boyuan Academy seriously.
Just look at the students and masters of Boyuan Academy.
The students are all the children of ordinary people recruited, and they don't even know the words.
And those masters who teach, although they were born in Guozijian, they are all from poor families, and they are still unsatisfactory.
The Taihe Academy has been established for hundreds of years, and the shortest other academies have a history of more than ten years.
And for this competition, Taihe Academy even dispatched a great Confucian like He Yu.
The rest were elites from various academies, and such a lineup actually lost.
However, when the detailed process of the competition was spread, everyone felt that Taihe Academy was not wronged to lose.
When this turmoil was raging, another shocking news came out.
He Yu is dead!
He Yu was nearly 70 years old, and he was considered a very long-lived man in ancient times when he knew his destiny at fifty. If he died normally, it would not cause any big disturbances at all.
But just after the competition with Boyuan Academy yesterday, the person died the next day, so I have to think about it.
Soon, word spread about the cause of He Yu's death.
Because Lin Xuan didn't respect the sages, but He Yu dared not say anything due to some reasons. After returning home, he felt ashamed of the sages, so ashamed, he chose to commit suicide.
What makes a great Confucian dare not speak out?
All vaguely point to Li Shimin.
Only Li Shimin can make a great Confucian dare not even speak, and finally chooses to commit suicide.
Scholars who thought they knew the truth were very angry.
Next, something happened that gave them a place to vent their anger.
Dozens of He Yu's disciples, carrying He Yu's coffin, knelt at the gate of the palace, begging Li Shimin to execute Lin Xuan, who disrespected the sages.
Those scholars gathered at the gate of the palace when they heard the news.
……
Changan Cuijia
Wang Liang said with a serious face, "Brother Cui, why didn't you discuss such a big matter with us?"
The representatives of the other companies looked at Cui Hao with displeasure.
Cui Hao made such a big move, but he didn't communicate with them, making them very passive.
Cui Hao looked at everyone and said with a smile: "If you don't do this, is there a way for you to eliminate the influence of losing this competition?"
Wang Liang and the others were silent. After losing yesterday, they also thought of ways to eliminate the impact of losing the competition this time, but there was no good way.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Cui Hao said: "The old man also wants to discuss with you, but the time is not waiting for me, the old man can only make his own opinions, and here the old man wants to say hello to you."
After finishing speaking, Cui Hao stood up and bowed to everyone.
The faces of the representatives of the other companies looked better.
Wang Liang said worriedly: "Brother Cui, doing this can indeed eliminate the impact of losing the competition this time, but the trouble is so big now, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Now everyone is focusing on He Yu's death, and He Yu's disciples are kneeling at the gate of the palace carrying the coffin, no one really talks about winning or losing the competition.
But with such a big commotion, how did it end in the end?
Cui Hao said in a deep voice: "How can we divert everyone's attention if we don't make a big fuss? And this time is also a good opportunity. Maybe His Majesty will really execute Lin Xuan in order to appease everyone's anger?"
"Brother Cui is really whimsical, what is your majesty's character? If it is really so easy to compromise, do we still need to hug each other for warmth?" Lu Yuan sneered.
Cui Hao said with some embarrassment: "Even if Your Majesty doesn't know how to deal with Lin Xuan, so what? As long as Your Majesty can't appease those people, you will lose the hearts of some scholars. It is only good for us, not bad, is it?"
"I hope so." Lu Yuan sneered.
……
"boom!"
Li Shimin shouted angrily: "What exactly does the family want to do? Do you really dare not kill people?"
It was the first time in history that someone carried a coffin and blocked the entrance of the palace. If this was recorded in the history books, what would future generations think of him?
The maids and eunuchs in the main hall were so frightened that they knelt down on the ground, not daring to breathe.
Li Shimin took a few deep breaths, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Let Li Junxian lead people to arrest all those people and send them to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."
"Yes." Although Li Mu felt that something was wrong, he was just a eunuch, not a minister of the court, and he only had to follow Li Shimin's order.
When Li Mu left the Ganlu Hall, he saw Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji and more than a dozen important court officials coming hand in hand.
"I have met all the princes." Li Mu quickly saluted.
"We are asking to see His Majesty, and please report to Eunuch Li." Changsun Wuji said.
Li Mu clasped his hands and said: "Duke Zhao, this old slave is under His Majesty's orders and cannot go to report. The news of the coming of the dukes will naturally be reported, so the dukes wait here for a while."
"Dare to ask Director Li, but it's about those scholars outside the palace?" Changsun Wuji asked.
"This..." Li Mu looked at Changsun Wuji with some embarrassment.
No matter what Li Shimin ordered, it was impossible for him to tell Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Wuji asked him these things. Strictly speaking, it was considered presumptuous.
Seeing Li Mu's expression, Changsun Wuji already understood, and said, "Mr. Li, we are all here for this matter. Why don't you report to Mr. Li in person? Maybe when His Majesty sees us, there will be a difference." plan."
Li Mu hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Gentlemen, wait a moment."
Not long after, Li Mu came out again and said, "Your Majesty calls all the princes to have an audience."
