I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 564
The failure of Li Dong's promotion didn't seem to have any impact, the only difference was that Li Dong's expression was sluggish for many days, and he might also be worried about this exam.

Among them, Song Mu also discussed the reason with Qin Taifu, and it may be that His Highness is not in a stable mood.

For this reason, Song Mu and Qin Taifu both communicated with Li Dong, and planned to help Li Dong break through again in a few days.

On this day, Song Mu was discussing several articles with the Jinshi editors in the Wenkan Pavilion, and after finalizing several articles in this issue of "Tianxia Wenkan", he came out of the Wenkan Pavilion.

It was getting late at the moment, Song Mu thought about the rare Xiumu tomorrow, maybe he could take this opportunity to pay a visit to Feng Xiang's house.

After all, I have been here in Chang'an for some time, although I can't get away for a while because of His Highness's affairs, but this kind of thing that has happened to me cannot be avoided no matter what.

Song Mu made up his mind, so he walked into a pastry shop next to him, bought a pair of pastries and brought them out.

When passing by a nearby intersection, Song Mu saw a few beggars enjoying the last ray of sunshine in the winter at the entrance of the alley.

And when these people gathered together, they seemed to be whispering for a while.

"Everyone, when I came out of the Town God's Temple this morning, Blind Wang said that he had made a fortune teller, do you want to hear it?"

The few beggars lying lazily on the ground just glanced at each other and said nothing.

But the middle-aged beggar who raised the topic spoke in a self-contained manner.

"Let me tell you, that blind man talked about His Royal Highness this morning."

Hearing this, several beggars around couldn't help cheering up. Song Mu was walking on the opposite side of the street, but also heard the voice, and immediately paid attention to it, but heard the other party say more.

"The blind man Wang said that he had a fortune teller a few days ago and found that there was a change in the palace, but when he looked up, he saw that the golden clouds had gathered, but they disappeared after a while."

"Can you believe what the blind man said?"

"That's right, if he can calculate accurately, why did he mix up and eat pickled food in the same earthen jar with us?"

A beggar retorted immediately, but the middle-aged beggar immediately stretched out his hand to suppress his voice, and said immediately.

"That's not what I'm talking about. I heard it from two officials when I passed by the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment this morning."

"That official also said this, I think it might be right, this guy really made it right."

When everyone heard this, they were surprised for a while, but they obviously believed what the other party said.

And the middle-aged beggar immediately puffed up his chest and said very firmly.

"I heard that the prince failed to be promoted again. This is because the dragon spirit is difficult to gather!"

As soon as these words came out, all the beggars were in an uproar. Song Mu, who was about to walk away, almost lost his breath. At this moment, he stopped and turned his head to look over there, with cold eyes.

The beggars were about to speak again, they seemed to be aware of Song Mu's gaze, and saw a tall young man staring at them, they all silenced for a while, and then dispersed in the next moment.

Seeing this scene, Song Mu didn't catch up, but was a little shocked for a moment, recalling what these people said.

What the few beggars were talking about turned out to be the promotion of His Highness.

And this matter has obviously been covered up.

Song Mu let out a sigh of uncertainty at the moment, but felt that something was wrong with this matter.

Leaving aside who released the news, the beggars in Chang'an have already known about it, and I'm afraid that many caring people in Chang'an also know about it.

This made Song Mu suddenly feel that something was wrong, so he quickened his pace to go to the imperial city again, preparing to share the news with the Grand Tutor.

But when Song Mu bowed his head and walked quickly, a carriage beside him suddenly stopped, and a surprised voice came from it.

"Master Song?"

Song Mu didn't care about continuing to walk forward at all, but the other party got out of the carriage and chased after him.

Only then did Song Mu see clearly the other person's face, it turned out to be Xie Zhuangyuan from that day.

At this moment, Xie Yuanfang was smiling and cupping his hands towards Song Mu, and said.

"Master Song, why are you in such a hurry, do you want to see me off?"

Song Mu immediately cupped his hands towards the opponent.

"Thank you, Song will be here in a while."

Saying this, Song Mu wanted to leave immediately, but Xie Yuanfang hurriedly followed a few steps, and said to Song Mu with his hands clasped.

"Master Song, I would like to ask, do you have any plans for Mr. Min's letter? For this matter, your lord has also asked me twice."

Song Mu was also stunned when he heard this, but he also said that he would reply to the letter in the past two days, so Xie Yuanfang was not good at asking, so he had to leave.

Song Mu suddenly stopped in his footsteps at the moment, and stopped the other party at this moment. Xie Yuanfang looked puzzled, but Song Mu clasped his hands and asked in a deep voice.

"Xie Zhuangyuan, I don't know if you have heard any rumors on Chang'an Street in the past few days?"

"Gossip?"

Xie Zhuangyuan's eyes hesitated a little, then he shook his head in doubt and said.

"Forgive me for being stupid, but there are so many sundries in the Imperial Academy these days, I haven't even paid attention to the situation outside."

Song Mu heard this, but looked up at the bustling street again, the expression on his face changed subtly, he nodded slightly at that moment, and bowed his hands to bid farewell to the other party, leaving Xie Yuanfang with a puzzled look on his face.

Song Mu also comforted in his heart that maybe he was wrong.

Soon Song Mu arrived at the imperial city and entered the East Palace. Song Mu told Taifu Qin about this matter.

It's just that there is really no solution to this matter, Qin Taifu can only reassure Song Mu, saying that this matter should be nothing serious.

But just a few days later, there were rumors surging in Chang'an, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince's several breakthroughs had failed, and that perhaps he already had a demon in his heart.

The news spread very wickedly, and various rumors came out during the period, His Majesty was also furious about it, ordered the courtiers to investigate thoroughly in public, and finally suppressed the matter.

Because of this incident, Li Dong also lost his temper like never before. Several eunuchs and maids in the East Palace were punished one after another, causing panic for a while.

I thought that all this might end like this, but Song Mu was finishing his class that day, but he saw Taifu Qin being called away.

I heard that His Majesty summoned him.

But just a moment later, Li Dong also left in a hurry, and when he came back again, Li Dong lost his temper in the East Palace again.

Song Mu and other lecturers also looked surprised when they saw this, they didn't know what to say, but soon saw Qin Taifu returning with his head bowed.

He just glanced at everyone, then looked at Song Mu and said.

"Master Song, is there anything else to do today?"

Song Mu immediately put down the scroll in his hand, stepped forward and cupped his hands.

"After today's class, I don't know what orders the Taifu has."

After hearing this, Qin Taifu glanced at the people around him, and then just handed Song Mu out.

When Song Mu came out with him, he saw a wry smile on Qin Taifu's face, and then said to Song Mu with a sigh.

"The old man is no longer the Tutor, His Majesty has just dismissed me."

Song Mu raised his head suddenly when he heard this, but Qin Taifu just said with a wry smile this time.

"It is indeed related to His Royal Highness taking the exam."

Song Mu trembled all over, full of disbelief at the moment, and said quickly.

"Teacher, how did His Majesty make such a decision? Now is the time when Your Highness needs help the most. To achieve success in the future, you will have to rely on the Grand Tutor."

Qin Taifu waved his hand, looking at Song Mu this time with some deep and helpless eyes.

"It's not His Majesty's arbitrary decision. If you think about it...it's useless to talk too much. Song Lecturer, come with me to the East Palace."

When Qin Taifu said this, his face was a little ashamed.

"His Royal Highness still has a long way to go, but it will be even more difficult."

Song Mu raised his head and looked at the East Palace in the distance. At this moment, his brows were completely frowned.
