Chapter 2478 Dad's meaning is that Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong did it?
Empress Changsun bit her lip and tried hard to control herself so as not to laugh out loud on the spot because of these two particularly eye-catching nicknames.
After Li Shimin rolled his eyes for a long time, he suddenly let out a series of weird laughter, which shocked both Queen Changsun and Li Mingda.
"Dad, why are you laughing? You're laughing so horribly." Li Mingda quickly rubbed the goosebumps on his forearms and muttered in a low voice.
"Haha, dad is laughing at Cheng Sanlang and your third brother. They think they are doing something clever."
"Actually, dad has seen through their methods..."
"Husband, you mean Cheng Sanlang and Ke'er did it?" Empress Changsun was a little unbelievable. After all, that boy Cheng Sanlang couldn't write such an article.
As for that boy Li Ke, his literary talent is like half a bucket of water. He makes a lot of noise on weekdays. If he had such a writing style, I would be able to write my name upside down.
"Of course it's not them, but madam, please don't forget that before you became your husband, you sent that capable assistant to our good son-in-law."
The quiet and well-behaved Li Mingda on the side suddenly widened his bright eyes and screamed in disbelief.
"Dad, what do you mean, are Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong?"
This is unscientific. She is clearly your daughter. Did your daughter do it well?
"This is natural." Li Shimin looked scheming, stroking his long beard and began to explain his reasons to the surprised wife and daughter.
First of all, both Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong are very knowledgeable and well-educated people.
In particular, Xu Jingzong was not only knowledgeable, but also very good at writing. Otherwise, I would not have let Xu, who had questionable moral character, compile history books.
Therefore, Li Shimin inferred that Kong Yingda and others must have written an apology article in the newspaper.
However, this group of gentlemen and the old Cheng family have always been at odds with each other, so they will definitely not honestly admit their guilt and repent.
"Perhaps these guys like to use Spring and Autumn style of writing to cover up their faults, so they are prepared to use this method to get over it."
"So your husband was most likely angered by their articles, and then found Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, two learned men."
"Let them imitate the writing style and writing habits of these officials to concoct these articles..."
First of all, you can really disgust the original authors and let them understand that no matter what you write, if your article reaches the newspaper controlled by the Cheng family, it is not up to you.
Secondly, these writing styles are imitated so vividly in order to confuse readers who do not know the truth.
I mistakenly believe that these literary masters and learned scholars really realize that these young people are working hard for the country and the people.
Using the mouth of your enemies to promote yourself is naturally far more convincing than bragging.
"It's just that, haha...I am a little worried about whether these Qing family members will have the courage to come to court tomorrow."
As Li Shimin spoke, he kept raising the corners of his mouth, looking like he was almost out of control.
Queen Changsun saw a dark look on her face, and she quietly tugged on her husband's clothes several times, or coughed in a low voice.
This allowed this husband who liked to take pleasure in others' misfortune to maintain his fatherly appearance in front of his daughter.
Li Shimin wiped his face vigorously, took a few deep breaths, tapped his fingers on the table and said.
"But what makes my husband strange is that Xu Jingzong is missing his leg, while Li Yifu is missing his hand. Heaven is a disabled old man, and earth is missing a layman. It always makes people feel that they are not right."
"..." Seeing her husband's serious and confused expression, Empress Changsun covered her forehead in worry.
On the other hand, Li Mingda on the side rolled his bright eyes cooperatively, and walked towards his father with a smile.
"Dad, if my daughter knows about it, it must be that Xu County Cheng and Li Zhubo are afraid that others will see at a glance that they have done bad things."
"So, I specially came up with such a confusing pen name to confuse people."
As soon as he said this, Li Shimin looked like he suddenly understood and raised his thumb towards his daughter.
"He is indeed a little Sizi. Just like his father's guess, nine times out of ten, he should be like this."
"After all, no matter how thick-skinned your husband is, he will definitely be embarrassed to brag about himself in the newspaper.
In addition, classical Chinese writing seems a little bit weird to your husband, so you want to find them both..."
When Li Mingda heard his father's words, he pursed his lips in displeasure.
Although my father's words are affirming that my husband has a moral bottom line, it makes people very unhappy to hear them. What does it mean to be thick-skinned? Is that what my husband calls self-confidence?
People like your husband are inherently very capable. The important thing is that your husband is really capable of doing that kind of thing.
Thinking of this, Li Mingda almost laughed out loud, and quickly controlled his emotions, not to show any flaws in front of his biological father.
Yes, my husband originally wanted to brag about himself with the third brother.
Fortunately, the knowledgeable myself and Sister Mei Niang were both husband's virtuous wives, so they helped them and carefully forged and compiled it for them.
Otherwise, if the third brother and the others, who are still half jealous of my husband, take action, I am afraid that my father's keen eyesight will be able to see the flaw.
As for letting those two guys Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu take this kind of reputation.
Of course Li Mingda would not be unhappy. After all, he would be happiest if he did such bad things quietly so that no one could catch him.
As for the two unlucky guys who were blamed, my husband told the family about the glorious deeds of those two guys in the past.
None of them are good people, if it weren't for the fact that my husband is really short of people.
Li Mingda is not willing to let her husband's subordinates have such crooked melons and jujubes with questionable morals.
Nowadays, these two guys, who have a very bad reputation in the official circles of the Tang Dynasty, can only rely on their husband's command, relying on his towering tree to help them shelter from wind and rain, and even save their lives.
In this case, it is natural for them to bear the blame. We can't let the beautiful and resourceful me and Sister Mei Niang take the responsibility, right?
Besides, if he and Sister Mei Niang really wanted to end up personally, they wouldn't have chosen such a frustrating pen name.
Hey... it's not impossible to end it in person. I'll discuss it with Sister Mei Niang later. When I have nothing to do, I can try it.
Maybe it can be as popular and remembered by the world as the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "The Story of the Peony Pavilion in Luoyang" written by my husband under the pseudonym Luo Guanzhong.
Not to mention the small incident caused by the "Luoyang Xunbao" in the palace, at this moment, the scholars in the entire city of Luoyang were almost boiling with excitement.
Not to mention that the students of the Imperial Academy could not believe that Kong Jijiu, who was at odds with the old Cheng family, would shamelessly flatter the old Cheng family...
