In an instant, two months have passed, and when Li Mu went to Lantian County, it was when the weather was cold and frozen, and when he came back from Lantian County, there was already a trace of spring, and the grass with tenacious vitality had begun to sprout green shoots.

He hadn't seen his three children in two months, and the three little ones didn't recognize him a little. Looking at his eyes, with a hint of timidity, seeing Li Mu reaching out to touch his mother, Xiao Li Bai even raised his small fist to hit him.

"You little bastard!" Li Mu was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and carried Xiao Li Baizhao's ass for a while, Bai Qiaoqiao glared at him and didn't say anything, but he felt sorry for Xiao Li Bai's little mothers, especially Li Zhien, who loved him the most, immediately avenged the child and slapped Li Mu.

Xiao Li Bai saw that Li Mu was also beaten, so he got angry, stopped crying, and just drilled into his mother's arms, Li Mu looked at him, and turned his hand to hold the two daughters in his arms. In the end, the girl is her father's little padded jacket, and Allure and Lingyue are not crying like Xiao Li Bai, and they seem to be very close to their father.

Li Mu lifted his daughter up and looked at his son as if demonstrating. Xiao Li Bai looked at him, and in Bai Qiaoqiao's arms, he held Li Zhien's hand again, causing the women to laugh.

After playing for a while, the three children were tired, so they were put to sleep by the nurses and placed in the back room. Dinner was ready, resting in the outhouse, and the family sat around the table.

Although in the past three months, the women have also taken turns to go to Lantian to accompany Li Mu for a few days. But when the family eats together, there is none. The last time was back during the Chinese New Year. Compared to the Chinese New Year, the two mothers were not present. The Sun family has already returned to Shuzhou, she married Tang Jian, and she is already a member of the Tang family, so it is a matter of staying in her son's house all the time. And Mrs. Lu often goes back and forth between Chang'an and Luoyang, but after all, she controls the heir hall, and the affairs are complicated, so it is impossible to stay in Chang'an all the time, and three days before Li Mu came back, she went back to Luoyang. But it's fast, and she'll be back in a few days, and she can't do without her grandchildren.

The bearded man stayed by Mrs. Lu's side to keep her safe. Although it is not obvious that Li Shimin wants to harm Mrs. Lu at the moment, it is indispensable to guard against people, there are bearded guests, and dozens of people can't get close. If it is more than a dozen people to encircle, it is impossible not to leave a trace. If Li Shimin really does that, it will be tantamount to tearing his face, and it is useless to have many guards, who can have more people than Li Shimin's cantonment camp?

The bearded guest generation of giants follows his wife all day long and is at his disposal, which has to make Li Mu wonder if this old boy is a little mischievous. He knocked on the side and asked a few times, but the bearded guest was firmly denied. It doesn't look like a fake, and Li Mu didn't dare to ask the old lady, so the matter could only be settled.

During this time, Wang Ou had liquidated most of his business and shifted the focus of his work to the "Changjiang Holdings" newly established by Li Mu. She was born in a famous family, talented and intelligent, and her knowledge and vision are extraordinary, after Li Mu explained to her the basic financial concepts, she can already draw inferences from one another, and she doesn't need Li Mu to worry about it.

After some adjustments, the 'sphere of influence' of the several master mothers of the Luoyang Marquis Mansion is relatively clear.

Zhang Tianai is mainly responsible for the 'force' of the Luoyang Hou Mansion, she is in charge of the Jinyi Guard, protecting the safety of the whole family internally, and helping Li Mu to do some things externally.

Wang Ou controls the external financial power of the family, and all external investments are operated by Wang Ou.

Jin Chen didn't have any ideas about doing business, she liked opera, so she was only in charge of an opera garden.

Li Zhien, a little housekeeper's mother-in-law, the family's internal money bag, and all the family's expenses are all in her hands.

Wei Yingluo is now Li Mu's personal secretary. The content of her work depends on what Li Mu has done recently, and she will think about what Li Mu needs in advance, so as not to delay his affairs.

As for Bai Qiaoqiao, she basically doesn't care about anything now. The mind is on the three children, in addition to bringing his two children, sometimes Wang Ou is busy, and Xiao Lingyue will also send Bai Qiaoqiao here. Bai Qiaoqiao is a person with overflowing maternal love, and she will not be irritable at all because of having more children, but she is very happy in her heart, and her love for Xiao Lingyue is even more than her own biological child.

Li Mu is very satisfied with the current arrangements at home. In terms of 'power', such an arrangement will certainly lead to a distinction between a person who has 'real power' and someone who does not have 'real power'. But this is a worldly point of view, and in fact, what each person in the family is responsible for is entirely out of personal preference.

If Bai Qiaoqiao likes it, she can also take over the affairs of Li Zhien or Wang Ou at any time. Wang Ou can also take a break at any time and let Jin Chen take over. No one is scrambling, no one is prevaricating, everyone is in the same situation, they like to do it, and they are not tired.

And the so-called wealth and power are no longer important to everyone in the Luoyang Hou Mansion. If you regard money and power as the goal of your life, you can eat and wait for death a long time ago, and do nothing.

……

As the sun set, Li Mu carried a wooden barrel and a fishing rod on his back and came to the river.

An old man was fishing here, half-squinting and drowsy.

Li Mu walked up to him, but he didn't hear it. It wasn't until Li Mu sat beside him that he realized that there were many people around him, glanced at Li Mu, and smiled: "Good grandson, why are you here?" ”

"Stay with Grandpa Huang."

"Alas, what an emperor is not an emperor, it sounds raw." Li Yuan sighed and said, "Just call grandpa, I'm just like an old farmer now." ”

"Okay, grandpa." Li Mu called out obediently, and Li Yuan glanced at him and smiled with satisfaction.

"Kid, you know what?" Li Yuan lifted the fishing rod, hung up a little bait, and said to Li Mu: "You are not like your father at all, and there is no similarity in your behavior. You don't look alike—"

Li Mu looked at the old man blankly, and said in his heart, shouldn't he see something?

was worried, so he listened to Li Yuan's words and said, "But I know that you are the bloodline of my family." From the first time I saw you, I was sure, otherwise you would think I was so good to you? ”

Li Mu smiled and said, "Grandpa's eyesight, grandson can't reach it." ”

"I can still see it," Li Yuan said again, "Yourong, that child, is not your father's bloodline." ”

Li Mu's hands trembled, and his heart was surprised. Li Yourong is not Li Jiancheng's daughter, Li Mu thinks that no one knows except himself, but he doesn't want Li Yuan to see it early.

But why didn't he expose it?

"Want to know how I saw it, huh?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "Grandson really doesn't know, how did grandpa come to this conclusion." ”

"Coincidence, intuition." The answer Li Yuan gave was very simple, he smiled and said, "But these are not the most direct reasons for my judgment, the most direct reason is Tu Li's death, which is too strange." ”

"The only person in the world who can prove his identity is Tuli. Just as Tuli was about to come to Chang'an, he died. How could there be such a coincidence in the world, and in those days, I saw Yourong looking flustered and restless, which confirmed my judgment even more. ”

Li Mu was not silent, he didn't say that Li Yuan was right, nor did he say that he was wrong, but just asked, "Then why didn't Grandpa expose this matter?" ”

"What is there to debunk—" Li Yuan sighed abruptly and said, "At my age, these things are serious?" Whether it is the bloodline of Yourong or not, she treats me like a granddaughter, and this side is enough. Even if it is a biological son, in the royal family, family affection is not based on blood. ”

Li Mu nodded, Li Yuan understood this.

"What is Grandpa going to do?"

"Yourong is not a bloodline, but he has been canonized as the county lord. I can tolerate this, you can tolerate it, and the people of the world are not intolerable, but the etiquette and law cannot tolerate it. He wants to be a Ming Jun, and he can't tolerate this kind of stain. So once the incident happens, even if he wants to protect it, he won't protect it. ”

"And even if you don't show your stuffing, the fact that you have the blood of the building is a hidden danger is a hidden danger after all."

Li Mu was silent, and then nodded. He understood what Li Yuan meant, don't look at Li Shimin who seems to be very good to him now, but the emperor is ruthless, and the days are still long, maybe one day he will turn his face.

At that time, Li Mu will still be difficult to protect himself, let alone a woman.

"So I plan to marry Yourong while I'm still alive." Li Yuan's tone was firm, and he seemed to have made up his mind: "I want to marry her to a husband who is enough to make the people of the world jealous, only in this way can she be saved." ”

Li Yuan looked at Li Mu and said, "Do you have any good suggestions?" ”

"Jealous—" Li Muxin said, in Li Shimin's eyes, is there anyone who can make him jealous?

Tuyuhun? Western Turks? Xue Yantuo? Goguryeo? Tubo –

Tibetan!

By the way, didn't that Tubo prince miss Li Yourong? It's just that I don't know if Li Yourong is interested in him, if Li Yourong can accept him, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Thinking of this, Li Mu told Li Yuan about the prince of Tubo.

Li Yuan frowned slightly, and said, "Tubo, it is enough to make the people of the world jealous. But there is new infighting in Tibet, and I don't know what is going on now. I don't know if I can get used to living in that barren land. ”

Li Muxin said, what is there to live in, after Princess Wencheng married to Tubo, I didn't see her have any altitude sickness-

Wait a minute!

Princess Wencheng?

Could it be Li Yourong, who is the princess Wencheng in history. Li Mu still remembers how it was written in the history books. At that time, it was recorded that among Li Shimin's daughters, there was no princess of the right age to be married, so he chose one of the clan daughters and married Songtsen Gampo.

Clan girl, Li Yourong's current identity, isn't she the clan girl?

It can't really be so bloody, right?

Li Mu was a little stunned when he thought of this. Li Yuan looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"No, nothing!" Li Mu came back to his senses and said, "Sun Er just thinks that this matter is not easy to force, so I should ask the opinion of the person concerned." ”

"Alas," Li Yuan sighed, "That's the way it is, but-" Li Yuan paused, thought for a while, and said, "At my age, it's not appropriate to say these things, or you should say it?" ”

"This!" Li Muxin said, what does this have to do with me? But since the old man opened his mouth, he couldn't help but agree, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Grandson, just try it, if it doesn't work, you have to be old." ”

"Okay!" Li Yuan readily agreed.

"So I plan to marry Yourong while I'm still alive." Li Yuan's tone was firm, and he seemed to have made up his mind: "I want to marry her to a husband who is enough to make the people of the world jealous, only in this way can she be saved." ”
