Sun also came to his senses, sighed, and said, "Son, this is indeed the case. It's not good for my mother, I'm ashamed of you. ”

Li Mu was dumbfounded and said, "Mother, how can this be? Tang Jian's guy is over fifty years old! ”

"That day, you went back to defend the city, Wang Hu didn't tell me the truth in order to calm my heart, but then I couldn't help but ask again and again, and still told me the truth. After he settled Empress Xiao, he wanted to return to Dingxiang and came to visit me before leaving. Tell me, if there is news, it will be in the next few days. But I didn't believe it to the left and didn't believe it to the right, and I felt in my heart that my son was in trouble. If you are gone, what is the meaning of living in this world? So I took advantage of the maid's inattention and hanged myself. ”

"Hang yourself!" Li Mu panicked: "Mother, how can you do such a stupid thing, you didn't get hurt, right?" ”

Sun smiled and said, "Silly son, if something happens to my mother, can she still be here?" Thanks to the quick return of the maid, the mother was rescued. ”

"Thankfully, fortunately! Mother, I must thank this maid, she is my benefactor! ”

Sun nodded and continued, "Lord Tang found out about my hanging, and immediately rushed over to visit me. He persuaded me with kind words and said a lot of good things. I was sad in my heart at that time, and I just hoped that I could find someone to talk to, and I almost talked about the things that I had been stuffing in my heart for many years, and what I should say and what I shouldn't say. Lord Tang comforted me and told me about him, but I didn't expect him to be a hard-working person. ”

"Since that day, perhaps because I am worried that I will be stupid, Lord Tang will come to me every day when he comes home from the official office, and he will come to me to sit and talk for a while. After a long time, I will get used to it. Originally, I didn't know Lord Tang's mind, but when you came to pick me up that day, I saw Lord Tang's eyes, and I somehow knew his mind. Before leaving, the maid who took care of me handed me a burden, which I thought was some clothes or something, but when I got home and opened it, I found that in addition to clothes, there were silver taels and a letter. ”

"The letter was written by him, and my mother didn't know how to read, so she asked Qiaoqiao to help read it, and he confessed his heart to me in the letter. said that the central people came to be the matchmaker in the past few days, and the mother was worried about this matter. My mother knows that you have a stubborn temper, and she is worried that you will not agree, so she dare not tell you. When you came in just now, my mother was discussing with Qiaoqiao, wanting to probe your tone through her. I didn't expect him to beg His Majesty to be a matchmaker, and suddenly forced his mother to a dead end, how should this be good, if you offend Your Majesty because of your mother's affairs, even if your mother is dead, she can't close her eyes! ”

Speaking of this, Sun was already in tears. Bai Qiaoqiao hurriedly took the handkerchief and helped wipe her tears.

Li Mu was a little stunned at this time, he didn't expect that this matter had something to do with him. He believed that Sun would not lie, and if he followed what she said, Tang Jian could not only be wrong, but could be regarded as a responsible man. From the time to the present, Li Mu's thoughts about the original Li Mu's mother have changed several times. From the beginning, he felt that it had nothing to do with him and didn't plan to take care of it, to when he realized that it was his responsibility and decided to take care of it, and later, living together and getting in touch, he found that Sun was really a good mother. She would sew clothes for Li Mu, worried that Li Mu would be hungry, and wanted to find a good daughter-in-law for him, and put her son in front of everything. She is just an ordinary Datang woman, but she has done everything that an ordinary mother can give her child. Today, Li Mu has already regarded her as his mother. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been enthusiastic just now and risked his life to refute Li Shimin.

It's not that Li Mu didn't think about finding a lover for the Sun family, he is a person in later generations, and the remarriage of a single mother in later generations is too ordinary. He didn't have that kind of pedantic idea, but in his expectation, he had to be a person of the same age as the Sun family, because in this way he could stay with her for the rest of his life, Tang Jian was not bad to say, but at his age, he was ......

Li Mu sighed and said, "Mother, my son has no objection to your remarriage. There are just a few things that the son wants to know if you want to think through. ”

When Sun heard this, his eyes suddenly filled with hope, since Li Mu had no intention of objecting, then everything was easy to discuss, and hurriedly said: "Son, what do you say?" ”

"Mother, that Tang Jian is in his fifties this year, and he is more than ten years old behind you, so I'm afraid I won't be able to spend my old age together. You have been a widow once in your life, and if you come again, your son will feel uncomfortable, and I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it. ”

Sun said: "Son, my mother has thought about this matter. Son, I don't know what you think in your heart, but my mother thinks that it is not easy to meet a good person in my life, although Lord Tang is older, but he is really good to his mother. And you know my mother's body, so I don't know who will go to the front first. Mother doesn't mind this, and you don't have to worry about it. ”

Li Mu nodded, and acquiesced. He actually knew in his heart that what he envisioned for the Sun family was not necessarily what she wanted. Everything must be based on the thoughts of the parties, since the Sun family doesn't care anymore, Li Mu can't say anything, just remind him responsibly. Li Mu thought for a while, and then said: "Mother, our family is from a humble background, although our son was made a marquis, but he is only a marquis in name, and he can't count and has no status. The Tang family has been a prince for several generations, and his son is worried that you will be angry. ”

Sun hurriedly said: "No, no, when my mother lived in the Tang family, she met several sons of the Tang family, and they were all knowledgeable people. And they all already have families, except for the youngest son Tang Guan, they don't live in the house, and their mother will definitely not be angry, don't worry. ”

Seeing Sun's attitude, Li Mu suddenly had a feeling that his daughter was in a hurry to get married, and his father was worried about it. Although this analogy is somewhat inappropriate, it is indeed the mood.

The words have already been said for this part, if Li Mu stops it again, he will become an unfilial evil son, sighed, and said: "Mother, my son only asks you to be happy and happy, as long as you are happy and happy, there is nothing that my son will not agree to here." If you are willing, I will reply to Your Majesty. ”

Li Mu returned to the study and told the details, Li Shimin laughed, patted Li Mu on the shoulder, and said, "I just said that there are some things that you young people don't understand, how about it?" Are you still talking to me? ”

What else could Li Mu say, he lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty has insight into human feelings, the minister can't do it, the minister knows that he is wrong, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "The punishment will be exempted, you are also defending your mother, filial piety is current, if I punish you, wouldn't you be a faint king!" Now that your mother has agreed, the matter is settled. Seven days after is a good day, and the happy event is set after seven days. and give thee a thousand taels of silver for the purchase of a dowry. Then give your mother Sun a product of the order, and seal the lady of Juguo. You have to prepare well, and in seven days, I will have a glass of wine! ”

Li Mu bowed his head and said, "I will obey Your Majesty's will." ”
