God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 241 Presiding over the assessment (first update)
The next day, at dawn, Du Ruhui came to visit.

"His Royal Highness, Duke Lai, please see me!"

Li Chengqian was resting, and he heard Guan Lishi say so.Come here so early, what is Du Ruhui going to do?
"Let him wait for me for a while! I'll get up now!"

"Yes!"

Afterwards, there were palace maids serving Li Chengqian to dress. Since he came to Datang, he basically didn't have to do it himself.

After everything was over, he left the room and headed for the hall.

At this moment, Du Ruhui was waiting anxiously outside.

"Duke Lai, why are you looking for this king so early?"

Li Chengqian asked when he came.

"His Royal Highness, I want to invite you to participate in the assessment of the ministers together! I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back!"

Right now Li Shimin doesn't care about government affairs for the time being. Although Du Ruhui is a high official and powerful official, it's better to do less things that offend others. This is the way to be an official.

So if Li Chengqian came forward, it would be different. His words were equivalent to Li Shimin's. If he said one thing, who would dare to say two?And, with his presence, he can convince others even more.

At the same time, it is also for Li Chengqian's face, after all, this matter is also very important.

Why didn't Li Chengqian know what this guy was thinking, anyway, he didn't go to court today, so he said:

"Alright then, I'll go with you. Have you ever prepared the case file for the assessment?"

"I prepared all night yesterday, and now the case file has been sealed, and I will unseal it for you when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrives!"

Du Ruhui said so.In this way, how did he sleep beautifully all night.

This guy is really reassuring.

"That's great, let's go!"

Du Ruhui added:
"His Royal Highness, all the ministers are now being assessed in the Guozixue!"

Is there, um, it's good there!
"Row!"

Li Chengqian took Xue Rengui and Du Ruhui to Guozi Academy!

Soon, the three of them arrived there. The entire Guozi Academy was guarded by a large number of officers and soldiers. The students inside had already been driven out to stand outside, because there was an exam and it had to be emptied, so there were no people there.

When they saw Li Chengqian, the expression on that little face was very shocked. You must know that they had seen Li Chengqian, but most of them didn't know that he was the prince. Now his appearance directly attracted a wave of attention.

There are also ministers who have been surrounded for a long time, and they have been waiting for the assessment. Some of these people's faces are dignified, while others are relaxed.
"See Your Royal Highness!"

When everyone saw Li Chengqian's appearance, they saluted.

Li Chengqian looked up and saw that most of the people inside were strangers. For example, some officials of the fifth rank and above were not in it, nor was Pei Ji, but there was one person in it, and that was Zhang Liang. He's sitting in the corner, feeling out of place.

"Okay, let's all be free! Today, the king is here to inspect your assessment situation, and I hope you can work hard!"

Li Chengqian said some words of encouragement to everyone, and everyone responded repeatedly: "Yes! Your Royal Highness!"

But my heart is very nervous. It's okay if you don't come, but once you come, the pressure on everyone will be even greater.

Then Du Ruhui led Li Chengqian to a conspicuous place and sat down, while Du Ruhui sat down a little below and stood on top.

Li Chengqian looked at the sky, it was getting late, so he said:

"Okay, Duke Lai, without further ado, you can start!"

"Yes! Your Highness, please wait a moment!"

Du Ruhui began to prepare the case files. At that time, he prepared them overnight. It can be seen how focused he was on this matter.

But when he took out the file, his whole face suddenly changed dramatically, and Li Chengqian also noticed something strange at this time.

Li Chengqian also realized that something was wrong, so he asked:

"Mr. Lai, what's the matter?"

Suddenly, Du Ruhui exclaimed in surprise:
"His Royal Highness, I am incompetent! I have humiliated the mission you gave me! I am guilty!"

What he said made everyone feel puzzled, and Li Chengqian was even more surprised.

"what happened?"

Du Ruhui then said:
"The minister clearly sealed this case file, but now it seems that there is a gap. In other words, this case file has been opened! The case file has been peeped!"

"Have you checked it carefully?"

There is no gain or loss, Li Chengqian asked again.

"That's right, the minister has sealed three doors, two of which are relatively hidden, and it is impossible for ordinary people to restore them. And it just so happens that these two doors have been opened! Someone has read the papers! I'm afraid this assessment cannot be carried out!"

Du Ruhui was very careful in doing things.After so much preparation, I was still peeped.

"Oh? Who has been here?"

Li Chengqian stood up and asked.

At this time, a warrior stood up and said: "His Royal Highness, no one has passed by here! We have searched for this place, and no one has passed by here!"

Li Chengqian said:

"So, Duke Lai was opened before it was taken out?"

Du Ruhui nodded, it seemed so.

Du Ruhui was very ashamed, and kept asking for punishment, after all, this matter can be big or small.To say big, the fact is big, it involves looking at the assessment and the direction of the entire court.Nothing can go wrong, and now, there is indeed a problem.

"His Royal Highness, please punish the old minister!"

"Why should you be punished! Isn't it just a case file?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone wondered, what did Li Chengqian want to do next?Papers are very important!

In fact, in Li Chengqian's heart, he couldn't help sighing that for the sake of assessment, these people are really supernatural, able to do anything, and even secretly read the contents of this case file.

But this assessment still has to go on!The only possible solution, I am afraid, is to ask another question.

It's just that it's not so fast to choose a topic again. After all, it's not easy for this topic to meet the requirements.

"Don't worry! It's just a test paper!"

That's why he said those words in order to comfort Du Ruhui and make him feel at ease.

In fact, he didn't have to say it, but the sincere Du Ruhui would not allow this kind of thing to happen, so he said.

"His Royal Highness, this..."

Before Li Chengqian could reply, at this moment, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun came.

Because of the small yellow door shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen is here!"

This Li Shimin really has very long feet, and whenever he doesn't come, he will come when Du Ruhui is in trouble.

No, Li Chengqian has to find a way to solve it properly.

But at this time, Li Shimin came.

All the officials and others hurriedly saluted Li Shimin.

"Meet Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen!"

And Li Chengqian didn't dare to neglect, and got up.

"My son pays homage to His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Queen!"

Li Shimin seems to be in a very good mood today, suggesting that everyone should not be too rigid.

Li Chengqian then attracted the two to sit on the main seat.
