Watching those literary scholars and great Confucians argue themselves nearly blue in the face inside the Hall of the Supreme Ultimate, everyone present—including Li Shimin—had no intention of stopping them!
Because they all knew that what scholars sought their entire lives was fame!
Now that they had a chance to become "sage-teachers," the fact that these scholars had not started fighting in the Hall of the Supreme Ultimate over who would be responsible for compiling this dictionary already counted as remarkable restraint!
If it had been Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong instead, they would probably have exchanged dozens of moves by now!
"State Preceptor!"
"About that dictionary you mentioned just now—don't you think that name is a little too plain?"
"Why not add another word or two in front of it?"

Knowing exactly what Li Shimin had in mind, Qing Mo still wore a faint smile as he deliberately handed him the right to name the dictionary!
Faced with such immense glory, if Old Li the Second—who had spent his life caring so much about appearances—did not speak up now, then he would not be himself!
Upon hearing Qing Mo's words, Li Shimin immediately smiled in understanding, his gaze toward Qing Mo brimming with gratitude!
"What does the State Preceptor think of the Zhenguan Dictionary?"
"Good! Then as Your Majesty says, it shall be called the Zhenguan Dictionary! After all, it will be compiled during the Zhenguan Era. Naming it after Zhenguan is entirely fitting and justified!"
