Chapter Ninety-Five: Procrastination

The light moonlight on the willow tops cast a gentle halo in the familiar courtyard, and in this halo that made people feel doubly warm, even the merchants who were originally angry gradually calmed down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Feeling that Li Mo's original intention did not seem to conform to his brother's absurd arrangement, Shang Shang also calmed down and listened to Li Mo's explanation.

"Say whatever you want! Don't laugh at me like that! ”

Although the businessman had decided to listen to what Li Mo had to say, the coquettish little daughter's mentality still made her tone not very gentle, but with a few coquettish angers.

In Li Mo's eyes at this moment, such a businessman is more like a rose blooming under the moon, full of different styles! Let him be willing even if he is covered in blood.

"Let me ask you, if Brother Su is in trouble, will you do nothing?" Li Mo looked at the businessman with affection, but said in his mouth.

"How is that possible? If something happens to my brother, how can I ignore it? Shang Shang's eyes widened, looking at Li Mo, who was a little blurry under the moonlight, and was a little dissatisfied with his questioning.

"Isn't this the end of it?" Li Mo smiled and nodded the merchant's nose.

The merchant was startled by Li Mo's sudden ambiguous move, and his face turned red instantly, and the anger that had not been left was even more dissipated at this time, so he had to turn his face shyly, and let Li Mo pull her slowly through the path, and the flowers and trees on both sides bloomed quietly in this early summer night, as if they were specially accompanying them to roam.

"Since Brother Su is an elder brother, it is normal for human beings to think about the two of you, and it is only right that the two of you, as younger brothers and sisters, will be sympathetic to your brother."

Li Mo's voice hovered low in the ears of the merchants, like the most beautiful strings, knocking into the hearts of the merchants in a staggered manner, flooding with layers of rippling waves.

"But in the eyes of outsiders, no matter how clearly you distinguish between the two, you are always a family, and you can't do without any of them, so Brother Su's move is too much to put it bluntly. However, since he has stepped into the horns, you and Brother Min don't have to argue with him, the booklet is just a formality, as long as your brother and sister know what is going on in your own hearts, and it is okay to make him feel more comfortable. ”

After saying this long passage gently, Li Mo didn't say anything more, but just took the merchant's hand and walked unhurriedly on the path, silently feeling the merchant's soft palm resting quietly in his palm, and a feeling of tranquility and satisfaction lingered in his heart.

"Hmmm! Reasonable. The merchant was stunned by Li Mo's words, and immediately understood what Li Mo meant, and a clear smile appeared on his face: "I'm really stupid!" Why argue with my brother about these forms, isn't it superfluous? ”

"You just know you're redundant?" Li Mo chuckled lowly.

Although it is a little redundant, but when the businessman was dedicated to protecting his brother, the anxious appearance of the willow eyebrows with resentment was really cute, he had never seen her like this in the past, and today it can be regarded as satisfying his eyes.

The corners of Li Mo's mouth had a hint of a smile that only he understood, but his right hand couldn't help but pull the warmth that he was attached to tighter, firmly clenched it in his palm, and didn't want to let go.

"You're laughing at me again!" The merchant was lightly disgusted, but there was already a smile on his face.

She naturally understands her brother's kindness. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Su Ruizhi, who knew Li Mo's background, didn't he do this so that she would not have any grievances when she married the royal bloodline? As for what the eldest brother said, it is impossible to talk about it!

Although the original establishment of the kitchen road originated from merchants, the scale of the kitchen road has already increased several times in these years, and it is already a world away from the small store back then, and the timber business led by Li Mo that year and the foreign merchants who later united with the merchants of Chang'an expanded the Su family's family property several times.

And all of this, the merchants have never been in charge, it is all the two elder brothers who plan and operate in it to make the Su family accumulate so much wealth, just with the hard work they have spent for the Su family over the years, the merchants are already ashamed!

"I didn't mean to laugh at you, people often say that bystanders are clear, you are so anxious to get angry just because you are involved in a relative, for fear that he will suffer a loss, what is my position to laugh at you?"

Feeling that the merchant stood still, Li Mo also stopped, turned his head to look at the merchant under the moon, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and stuffed the merchant's slightly messy hair behind his ear, and the fine shadows cast by the moonlight among the flowers and trees hit the merchant's face, bright or dark, like beautiful flowers blooming on that delicate face, adding a hazy beauty to the merchant's smile.

"The moonlight is good tonight!" Li Mo raised his head and looked at the moon above his head, which was unusually bright even though it was only a round of curved silver hooks, and said softly.

"Yes! It's just the moon! Looking at the bright moon above his head along Li Mo's line of sight, Shang Shang also smiled.

"In five days it will be the main period, but I am afraid ...... I didn't have time to come to see you before. In front of the courtyard of the merchant, Li Mo took the merchant's hand and said with some reluctance.

Although it was only five days, Li Mo was still a little reluctant, but when he thought that he would wake up every morning after five days and see the face he had been thinking about, the unhappiness in his heart faded a little.

It's just that these days, those people who are about to move have become more and more restless, and they are afraid that he will still be busy before the wedding, so Li Mo has to talk to the businessman in advance, so as not to worry her.

Sensing Li Mo's desire to speak, the merchant looked at Li Mo who was slightly bowing his head sensitively, although she couldn't clearly see the expression on his face in the pale moonlight, she still noticed Li Mo's hesitation.

"What's wrong?" Leaning down, Shang Shang smiled and bent down to look at Li Mo's face, his big eyes full of concern.

"It's nothing, it's just that Chang'an hasn't been very peaceful recently, you don't have any defenses in the kitchen, and the two brothers are not good at martial arts, so you need to be careful in everything." Li Mo thought about it, and decided to explain it to Shang Shang first, so that she could be prepared, so that she would not panic again when the matter came.

Although it may not be that bad things to that point, isn't it better to be prepared than to make amends?

"Is it related to Gao Yang and King Wu?" Hearing Li Mo's reminder, the businessmen who were originally going to laugh and make Li Mo relax also calmed down, and looked at Li Mo who had become a little gloomy with dark pupils.

"Hmm!" Li Mo let out a somewhat vague single tone from his throat, but he couldn't hide the trace of depression in his mood.

Perhaps, he is already a little tired of this-for-tat between blood relatives, and the people who should love each other and blood relatives have become such an endless situation, although some of this is involuntarily, but more is his own choice.

After seeing the mutual compassion between the three brothers and sisters of Shangshang, the conflict between their brothers and sisters made Li Mo extremely tired.

Shang Shang opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, the blood injury was always the deepest scar that hurt Li Mo, even if he was as close to Li Mo as she was, he could only stand behind him and wait for him to heal.

"Then be careful yourself, no matter what...... You will come back to me alive! ”

The merchant pulled the corners of his mouth, with some resentment, and with some desire to look forward to the promise, his delicate red lips like cherry blossoms were gently pursed, like a stubborn flower that refused to bloom.

Gently raising his arm, he brought his tightly clenched hand close to his lips, Li Mo imprinted a deep kiss on the back of Shang Shang's tender hand, and whispered firmly: "Definitely!" ”

Chang'an under the light moonlight has fallen into a deep sleep, and occasionally one or two silk bamboo sounds come from the far end of the flower street, and when it reaches people's ears, there are only wisps of light notes like a breeze.

Li Mo came out of the back door of the kitchen and rode through the quiet streets of Chang'an on horseback, wearing a dark purple brocade robe with a dark treasure pattern like heavy ink in the night, almost hidden with the night.

Although he agreed to the request of the businessman, from the news that Li Yan came one after another, Li Mo was really not optimistic.

Except for the few hardcore noble sons who came to the banquet in the villa where he lived last time, more than half of the middle-level officers of the Royal Forest Army have already participated in the banquet at King Wu's mansion.

At a time when everything is still uncertain, even if you temporarily plant people in the Imperial Guards, it is impossible to get along with those people in a short period of time, let alone find out anything from these wavering people.

And how much worry an uncertain loyalty can bring, no one can say.

From the half-open West Corner Gate to the unimpeded horseback into the garden, Li Mo saw Li Yan waiting by the corner gate at a glance.

Turned over and jumped off the horse, threw the reins in his hand to the little guy guarding the door, Li Mo just waved to Li Yan casually and turned around and walked straight to the inner courtyard.

"Childe!" Li Yan followed Li Mo to the study in a hurry, and said softly: "There is news from the emperor. ”

"Say." Li Mo paused slightly, and said in a deep voice.

"There have been some changes in the past two days, and the vassal hajj that was originally intensifying has somehow come to a halt, and the Ministry of Rites actually went to the book, saying that the vassal kings have not entered the Hajj for a long time, and they should stay in Chang'an for the Dragon Boat Festival this year, and now the vassal kings who were originally scheduled to return to the fiefdom around the Dragon Boat Festival have to stay in Chang'an City." Li Yan's face was a little unsightly.

No one thought that Li Ke's small box of jewelry would play such a role!

It's just a box of Nanzhu, but it made the Wang family operate such a response in the Ministry of Rites, if those vassal kings really stayed in Chang'an, then Li Zhi would have no reason to let Li Ke return to the fiefdom first.

In this way, everything will be disrupted, and if all those vassal kings are united, whether they will be in collusion with Li Kexin or not, it will be a big trouble.

And the situation that originally only needed to stare at Li Ke became no longer clear, and the target suddenly became much more, and Li Yan's manpower was already a little insufficient.

"What did the emperor say?" Li Mo stopped, his face gloomy. Things are really going in the most troublesome direction.

It can be said that every vassal king has a connection with the nobles in the army, and if they are not in Chang'an, perhaps the Imperial Forest Army will not be affected too much.

But now that it has been divided, the emperor can control fewer people, and with these vassal kings as a containment, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to control Li Ke in Chang'an City.

Li Mo didn't doubt it at all, once the battle between Li Zhi and Li Ke began, even if those vassal kings couldn't get benefits in it, they didn't mind watching the excitement from the sidelines!

"The emperor doesn't say anything for the time being." Li Yan was late for a while and replied in a low voice.

Now the eldest grandson of the court is taking Lord Yu and others to fight with the officials led by Wang Renyou of the Ministry of Rites for the return of the vassal king to the fief.

But no matter whether this ring is won or lost, as long as the days are dragged by, then Li Ke's side will already be half of the win! (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
