Chapter 496: Showing the Horse's Feet

When these words came to Li Shimin's heart, he gritted his teeth: "Damn the door valve, sooner or later, I will make them look good!" ”

"Uh......" Li Mu licked his lips, forced himself not to laugh, and said leisurely: "Your Majesty, if you have the heart to rectify the gate valve, the minister has an immature little suggestion." ”

Li Shimin didn't know Li Mu for a day or two, and when he heard him talk like this, he instinctively felt that there was a ghost, looked at him suspiciously, and said, "You are holding back your bad idea again, right?" ”

"How dare you!" Li Mu hurriedly denied it, and sent another sycophant, and said: "Your Majesty is wise and martial, the ancients are far away, how can a little trick of the minister hide from His Majesty's eyes?" ”

Li Shimin said with a smile: "You stinky boy, now you are more and more like a minister, and you are still touting me." Save your mind, if others boast about me, I may believe a little, but you don't have a word of truth in your mouth, I don't believe it. What is your suggestion, let me hear it. ”

Li Mu saw that Li Shimin's heart was moved, and he suddenly came to his senses, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has said it in advance, the minister's idea is completely for His Majesty's consideration, and this time he must not say anything about the minister again." In the past, the ministers were not afraid of petty fights, but this time, the foundation of the gate valve was moved, and maybe they had to find the ministers to play with their lives. ”

Li Shimin's old face turned red and said, "I have already reflected on it, don't worry, I will never say it to you again." ”

"That's how the minister's idea ......"

Li Mu leaned into Li Shimin's ear and whispered, the more Li Shimin listened, the more shocked he became, and after hearing it, he gasped, looked at Li Mu in shock, and said, "This is a bit too ruthless, right?" If they are found out, they will rebel! ”

"Oh, Your Majesty!" Li Mu hurriedly said: "Think about it, when they find out, will they still have the capital to rebel?" ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, nodded suddenly in realization, and immediately laughed.

Li Mu also laughed, and the two laughed like two big fools, attracting frequent sideways glances from passers-by. Empress Eldest Sun looked back, and saw that Wang Ou's gaze was also cast, and her pulse was full of affection, and she couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in her heart. Does this woman still have thoughts about His Majesty?

But after careful distinction, Empress Eldest Sun found that the focus of Wang Ou's eyes was not on Li Shimin, but on Li Mu. What a clever person she was, and she was also a woman, and her terrible instincts made her understand something.

Empress Eldest Sun was taken aback by her own thoughts!

Wang Ou and Li Mu? How is this possible?! The difference between the two is fifteen years old, and when Wang Ou got married, Li Mu was just born!

But Wang Ou's gaze is also deceiving, this is not the eyes of the elders looking at the younger generations, this is the eyes of the wife looking at her husband, with a kind of tame and worship from the heart.

Empress Eldest Sun's eyes wandered, and she suddenly asked coldly, "Sister Ou, what do you think of Li Mu?" ”

Wang Ou didn't notice that Empress Eldest Sun had already seen the clue, so she reluctantly withdrew her gaze and said with a smile: "Li Mu, this child, has literary talent and ability, and he is the best choice. As long as he wants to do something, there is nothing he can't do. Let's just say this calligraphy, he only visited Mr. Ouyang once, and he did the essence of the positive letters, and the words he wrote were like everyone who had been immersed in the ** method for decades, and the pen was strong. and his poems, from my point of view, there should be no one else in our Datang. The queen doesn't know yet, Li Mu has a new work, which is a new lyric composed by Emperor Yang Shui, I miss it with you......"

Sure enough, I'm in the middle of it!

Seeing that Wang Ou mentioned it, Li Mu praised endlessly, and the more he said, the brighter his eyes became, as if he wanted to let everyone in the world know how good this person was, and Queen Eldest Sun knew it in her heart. There is also a lot of emotion in my heart, thinking back then, Wang Ou is the most prestigious talented woman of her generation, and how many young people with five surnames and seven hopes are fascinated by her demeanor. After learning that she was married to Qinghe Cui's sick seedling, how many teenagers were heartbroken. Such a fairy-like person actually likes a child fifteen years younger than himself, and the feelings in the world are really difficult to understand.

Empress Changsun is an enlightened person, she does not feel that this relationship is shameful, but full of blessings. She knew how difficult it was for a woman to be widowed for seventeen years, and if Wang Ou could have a good home, she would be happy in her heart, but she didn't expect this person to be Li Mu.

If it's someone else, it's easy to do. But Li Mu is difficult to do. No one knows Li Shimin's thoughts about Wang Ou in his heart better than Empress Changsun, which is a first love that contains regret and regret. It is precisely because of such complex emotions that Li Shimin has maintained restraint so far and has not used his supreme power to persecute Wang Ou.

But if Wang Ou followed Li Mu in the end, Li Shimin would immediately feel humiliated! He absolutely couldn't bear it, and the person he had always loved and worshipped as a goddess did not choose him, but his son and nephew. At that time, the relationship between the monarch and the minister will definitely break down.

Li Mu is an extraordinary person, Li Mu's talent, and he is also the eldest grandson queen who met in her life. Many times, Empress Eldest Sun can't even help but think deeply. If Li Mu had been born 20 years earlier, he would definitely have made a difference in that era when the heroes rose together. There are really too many miracles that have happened to him, and many things that he can't think of, he not only dares to do, but can also do it.

A rootless duckweed boy came to Chang'an for ten months and achieved a position on an equal footing with the dragon heroes. started from scratch, earned nearly a million yuan, and flipped through the history books, which is also something that has never happened before!

If it was because of a woman, he was alienated from such a talent. Empress Changsun felt that it was not cost-effective, but emotional matters were the things that could not be judged by reason, and at that time, she did not have confidence that Li Shimin could control herself. Moreover, even if Li Shimin restrained himself, what would Li Mu think in his heart? Will he still be as loyal as he is now?

I'm afraid it's unknown.

Thinking of this, Empress Eldest Sun sighed.

Wang Ou was still praising Li Mu, and suddenly heard a sigh, thinking that the eldest grandson queen was dissatisfied with Li Mu, and couldn't help but look at her, slightly displeased.

Empress Changsun came to her senses, and when she saw Wang Ou like this, she smiled and said, "Sister Ou is right, Li Mu is indeed a great talent. I was just thinking that my son was not as good as Li Mu, so I sighed. ”

Wang Ou listened to the explanation of the eldest grandson queen, and then his brows relaxed, and said: "After all, the prince is young, and those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, hasn't Your Majesty already asked Li Mu to teach the prince, I believe that under Li Mu's teaching, the prince will definitely grow." ”

Empress Eldest Sun nodded in agreement, and she passed this stubble.

At this time, Li Shimin and Li Mu also came over, and Empress Eldest Sun asked, "What are you two talking about, standing there for so long?" ”

"We talked about some things in the court." The matter is closed, how could Li Shimin say it casually in front of Wang Ou, and changed the topic and said: "This Pingkangfang has also come to an end, queen, the time is almost up, go to my father's place to sit for a while, we will almost return to the palace." Tomorrow I have to have fun with the people at Chengtianmen, and I have to go back and make some preparations. ”

Li Mu didn't know about this yet, and asked, "Your Majesty, there will be activities in Chengtianmen tomorrow?" ”

Li Shimin frowned and said, "You don't know this?" Every year on the Shangyuan Festival, I and the queen have to meet the people in Chengtianmen, and make three lantern riddles, and the first to guess will be rewarded. ”

"Ah, the lantern riddle!" Li Mu finally remembered this traditional custom and was excited. When Li Shimin saw him like this, he immediately said: "The reward is not much, you are not allowed to guess!" ”

Li Mu suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty is unreasonable again!" ”

"It's unreasonable to talk to you! I am happy with the people, what do you mix? If you want to guess the lantern riddle, play by yourself! After that, Li Shimin glanced at Wang Ou, threw a touch of affection, and took the queen into the carriage, and Gonggong Gao sat on the wheel, took out a brocade box from his sleeve, handed it to Li Zhien, and said with a little pain: "Congratulations to the second lady, tomorrow our family will accompany Your Majesty, I am afraid that we will not be able to come to the door to drink a glass of wine, so the congratulatory gift will be sent first!" ”

Li Mu took the brocade box from Li Zhien's hand, opened it, closed it with a smile, and said, "How embarrassing is this?" Father-in-law Gao, we are friends, and we are in love, and you insult our friendship with such vulgar things, I'm going to be angry! ”

"Hey," Grandpa Gao sighed and said, "Master Hou, don't joke, our family has never had such a big blood in our life, and now I am still very distressed, don't say it." ”

Li Shimin couldn't listen anymore, so he opened the curtain and said, "Li Mu, you can stop in moderation!" It's not easy to do a high job, and you don't miss him this amount of money, what is this for! ”

Li Mu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister is not pondering, and it is useless for Gonggong Gao to keep the money, he ...... You know, "

"It's getting worse and worse!" Li Shimin put down the curtain and said, "Gao Gan, let's go, don't take care of this unreasonable person." ”

Gao Gonggong threw down his whip, and the carriage left the fangmen. Li Mu returned the brocade box to Li Zhien, Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at the contents of the box, and saw that it was a set of exquisite jewelry. A gold hairpin, two pairs of earrings, a pair of bracelets, and a gold chain. They are all inlaid with precious stones, and it can be seen that they are the work of court masters.

After Li Mu made money, Bai Qiaoqiao also bought some jewelry in the East Market, and the approximate price is still known. This set of jewelry has to be at least a thousand. Gao Gonggong said a lot of blood, and he didn't lie.

Li Mu came and went back to give him money, and it was almost this amount, he took it back this time, maybe he took it a little, it must be painful. Li Mu saw Bai Qiaoqiao's gaze and said, "Madam likes it?" If you like it, I'll catch up with him and ask him for a set! ”

Bai Qiaoqiao hurriedly shook his head and said, "Husband, don't mess around, it's not that we don't have money, if I like it, just take the gold and find a craftsman to do it." Don't embarrass Father-in-law Gao, he's very good to our family. ”

"You're just so kind-hearted."

Li Mu stretched his waist, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and said, "It's not too early, let's go back to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow!" ”

Bai Qiaoqiao said strangely: "Why do you get up early?" Won't you marry Zhi'en tomorrow? ”

"Yes, it's ready to get married!"
