The words have already been said to this point, Li Mu naturally has no reason to retreat, and continued: "The minister is not just for his righteous brother, but he can also understand His Majesty, so when the minister and His Majesty met again, he did not mention this matter. Moreover, the minister had confidence in His Majesty at that time, and felt that His Majesty was just angry for a while, and after a period of time, he would understand that Siwen was actually to blame, so he would revoke his punishment. ”

"However, His Majesty's next move made the minister realize that this kind of thinking is just wishful thinking on the part of the minister."

Pastor Li sighed and said, "Your Majesty, Li Ji, the minister's father-in-law, is a loyal and upright person, and Your Majesty has also recognized this. It's just that the minister's father-in-law was too cautious and cautious, and because of the events of that year, he was uneasy in his heart and asked for help. The minister does not deny that the main reason why the father-in-law made such a decision is because of his personal origin. Therefore, when His Majesty asked the minister, the minister also agreed to let his father-in-law go to the state, and he thought a lot about it, and when he discussed it with His Majesty, His Majesty also agreed. ”

Li Mu looked at Li Shimin and said, "The minister never thought that His Majesty had deceived the minister again. His Majesty allowed his father-in-law to go to Bingzhou, but His Majesty also issued a second decree to let the minister's second uncle and father-in-law's younger brother Li Bi go to Jinju to do assassination. Your Majesty, what you mean by this, the minister is not a fool, and he can understand a thing or two. His Majesty's intention was to strike at the minister's father-in-law and tell him not to spy on the holy will. Therefore, the name of Tejin actually cuts off the foundation of the British government's foothold in Chang'an. Your Majesty, the minister can't understand! ”

Li Mu said indignantly: "The minister talked to the Emperor Taishang about this matter, and the Emperor Taishang thought that His Majesty had done nothing wrong. But in the eyes of the minister, His Majesty's move really chilled the loyal ministers. Not to mention that the minister's father-in-law Li Ji has just made military exploits second only to General Li Jing, but only to say that the minister's father-in-law Li Ji is loyal to His Majesty, and His Majesty is also clear in his heart, otherwise he would not have been allowed to lead a state to the border. But His Majesty did not treat his loyal ministers well. Let the minister not understand! ”

"Just like Wei Zheng, Shandong officials and other disobedient people, His Majesty only reprimanded them all. And Wei Zheng was also promoted to the imperial historian because of this, and he was added to the rank of knight! In contrast, doesn't Your Majesty feel that it is too unfair to Li Ji, the minister's father-in-law? Could it be that above the court of my Tang Dynasty, only those who sell their names and take straight positions can be tolerated, and only those who set off His Majesty's mind like the sea? And the loyal ministers and good generals, the generals who threw their heads and spilled their blood for His Majesty, and fought fiercely in the Western Regions, but they had to be careful everywhere, and even the family could not gain a foothold in Chang'an? Your Majesty, how ridiculous! I beg your pardon for not being able to understand! ”

"Today, the minister went to his father-in-law's mansion to see him off. But he couldn't see each other, and Li Mu knew his father's intentions. My father-in-law didn't want me to be involved, but the British mansion was now closed when he saw the bustling British mansion in the past. Only the prince and a few old servants are in the house, just like the protons of other countries. The minister's heart is really difficult to peace! But Your Majesty is Your Majesty, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and within the four seas, on the shores of the land, all belong to Your Majesty. The minister is His Majesty's people, and he doesn't dare to criticize His Majesty, can't the minister even drink and buy drunk? The minister is depressed in his heart, he doesn't dare to speak to others, can't he use wine to drown his sorrows? Your Majesty threw the minister in prison, can't the minister pretend to be crazy and stupid? If Your Majesty only wants to listen to the words of the ear, and only wants a courtier like Wei Zheng and Shandong officials who can fulfill Your Majesty's reputation, please kill me. Ministers are destined not to be in the same stream as it. The minister said that he was deeply ashamed to be an official in the same dynasty as those who talked about it. This is also one of the reasons for the resignation of the minister! ”

After Li Mu finished speaking, Li Shimin's face was extremely pale. The eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Qi looked at Li Mu differently, but neither of them spoke, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Li Shimin was listening and thinking about how to refute, but after listening to Li Mu, he didn't think of a rebuttal. On the surface, Li Mu was not wrong at all. But there are many things that cannot be said in the open. For example, the reason for punishing Li Siwen, if you look for it from the law, you will definitely not be able to find it. But the reason is clear to each other, but they can't say it explicitly. As for Li Ji's matter, Li Shimin felt that as an emperor, it was natural to knock on his courtiers. Li Yuan agreed, which made Li Shimin feel that he had done nothing wrong. But what Li Mu said is also reasonable, disobedient people are added to the rank of knight, and loyal ministers and good generals are in panic all day long, even Li Shimin himself, he also feels that something seems wrong.

Li Shimin tried to think about whether he would change his mind if he had made another decision. But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that he would still make the same decision. Li Siwen must be punished, because there must be a single conclusion on the matter of Xuanwumen, and the people or things related to Li Jiancheng must be wrong. And Feng Nazha is also necessary to be the lord of Huanzhu County, otherwise his reputation for murder will be confirmed, which is absolutely unacceptable to Li Shimin. At the same time, Li Ji must also be beaten, he is a great general, there are more than a dozen generals in the court, if everyone spies on the holy will, the court will be in chaos, if you don't beat, it will definitely not work!

Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and had a headache. He couldn't say that Li Mu was wrong, but he felt that this kid's temper was too stubborn and too naïve! He stared at Li Mu for a long time and said, "Boy, you think I have deceived you, but I think that you can think like this, you still haven't grown up, you are still a child!" Still thinking about things with a child's mind! I have high expectations for you, but I am very disappointed that you are so immature! ”

Li Mu snorted and said, "Your Majesty even deceived the child, in the heart of the minister, it is not a gentleman's doing!" ”

“……”

The eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Jue were stupid, thinking that this kid had a problem with his brain, and dared to talk to His Majesty like this, was he really not afraid of death?

Li Shimin was also choked with anger, laughed angrily, and said: "Okay, I won't entangle with you and make this kind of useless verbal argument." I only ask you, do you admit your mistake or not, you admit your mistake, you can go home now, I will act as if nothing happened, and I will not punish you. If you don't admit your mistake...... Stay in this prison! ”

Li Mu stiffened his neck and said: "If you stay, you will stay, the minister has come here twice, and I think it's good." ”

Li Shimin was so angry that the blue tendons on his forehead jumped up, and he said angrily: "Li Mu, you are too presumptuous!" Are you trying to tell me that you don't want to be loyal to me anymore? Are you going to fight against me? ”

"I didn't!" Li Mu also glared and said, "I just said that I didn't admit this mistake, and I didn't say that I wanted to go against Your Majesty." What I promised to do, I will still do, I am a person who says where to do it, I have never hidden it from His Majesty, but unlike His Majesty to me, I only say half of everything! ”

Li Shimin didn't answer this stubble, but just asked: "If you don't come out of prison, how can you do things?" ”

"Your Majesty let me out?"

"If you admit your mistake, I'll let you out!"

"Then I'm not going out!"

"What are you going to do if you don't come out?"

"I ...... I'll do it in prison! Li Mu gritted his teeth and said, "I'd rather work in prison than go out!" Anyway, I just don't admit it! ”

Li Mu's cowardly and hard-mouthed appearance made Li Shimin so angry that he couldn't cry or laugh. He raised his hand and pointed at Li Mu and said, "You kid, you ...... Do you really think that I can't do without you? You think too highly of yourself! ”

"I don't dare to say that, I'm a prisoner of the ranks, what do you think of. But I just feel that I am right, if Your Majesty has to let me admit this mistake, I can admit it, but from now on, Your Majesty will be a big faint king in the hearts of his ministers. ”

Li Shimin jumped to his feet and said angrily: "You say that I am a faint monarch again!" Li Mu, this is the second time you have said that I am a faint king! ”

"Can I be blamed for this? The first time His Majesty was going to cut me, and the second time His Majesty didn't let me out of prison, can't I have a grudge in my heart? And I have to tell Your Majesty, because I am very disappointed in Your Majesty, and I was going to offer His Majesty a secret method...... No! To give! Finish! ”

"Hah! Do you think I'm rare? ”

"The minister doesn't know if His Majesty is rare or not, and it's not a useful secret method, it's just a secret method for firing glass."

"What is the use of glass...... Wait, wait! Li Shimin came out of his mouth, and when he realized what Li Mu said, he came to his senses, stared at Li Mu and asked, "You just said Liuli?" ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Qi heard the word 'Liuli', they also stared at each other. Liuli is a treasure in this era, and it is rare to see. Three-color glaze, only big eaters have, and it is worth a thousand gold, very expensive. Even Li Shimin only has a few glass cups. Li Mu actually said that he could fire? He can even fire glass?

Li Mu nodded, stretched out five fingers, and said, "It's still colorful!" ”

"Colorful?!"

Wang Jue was born in the Wang family of Taiyuan, and there are a lot of treasures in his family, but he has seen a colorful glass bowl. Listen to the elders of the clan said, this glass bowl is the only one in the world, there is only such a thing in the world, it is the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the monk from Tianzhu came from afar, and it fell into the Taiyuan Wang clan, called the treasure of the Zhen clan. What did Li Mu say, he could fire colorful glass? He, he's a god?

"That's right!" Li Mu said seriously: "After my eighteen experiments, I finally made a colorful glass bottle. Different from the skills recorded in ancient books, the color of the colorful glass bottle I fired is controllable, you can have any color you want, you can have any color, you can have any color wherever you want, and it is crystal clear, Ambilight, just like jade! Moreover, the glass bottle I fired is not poisonous and can hold wine! It is the best drinking vessel! ”

Li Mu glanced at Li Shimin and said, "Originally, I planned to dedicate it to Your Majesty as one of the items of the internal fund, but now, ...... Forget it, Your Majesty can't look down on it anyway! ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath and glared at Li Mudao: "Boy, are you showing off to me?" I see you, this is a proud thing! ”

"Your Majesty! The secret method was tested by the minister night after night! It's not stolen by the minister, when the minister is bathed in the emperor's grace, is there still a few secret methods to offer? Now His Majesty has put the minister in prison and forced the minister to admit his mistake. The minister feels uncomfortable, can't he not give it up? Isn't it enough for Your Majesty to deceive the child, but also to rob the child's things?! Your Majesty, you are too unreasonable! ”
