As the sun fell, Li Mu came out of the palace and came to Bai Nao'er's house in Chang'an City.

In fact, Bai Qiaoqiao didn't understand that Bai Haoer's so-called 'bought' house was actually built by himself. Right at the entrance of JDJI, in the backyard of the grocery store. Before Bai Hao'er did this, he had already greeted Li Mu, so Li Mu was not surprised at all when he heard Bai Qiaoqiao mention it.

Before he arrived at the place, far away, Li Mu was discovered. When Ergou heard that Li Mu was coming, he had been waiting near the entrance of the market, and when he saw Li Mu's shadow, he hurriedly ran over and helped Li Mu lead the horse.

"Master Hou! You've finally arrived, and you've been waiting here all afternoon. ”

"Wait for me?" Li Mu glanced down at Ergou and said, "By the way, I forgot to ask you last time." I remember that you were eating in the West Market, why have you been following my father-in-law recently? ”

"The little one is no longer in the West Market." Ergou explained: "Last time you killed the dog Yushi, in order to save you, Bai Ye spread the 'Hero Post' in the east and west cities of Chang'an City, and many capable people were under Bai Ye's command, and the same is true for the small ones." Now follow Bai Ye to beg for food. ”

"Master Bai?" Li Mu's mouth almost grinned to the root of his ears, it's really funny, Bai Hao'er is now a mixed master? Is it still a 'hero post', the hero of the east and west cities of Chang'an? Seeing Ergou, Li Mu could think of what kind of people he had recruited.

Nothing more than a rooster and a dog thief!

However, Li Mu did not mean to look down on him at all, when he was imprisoned in Dali Temple, there was a person called 'Flea on the Drum' to deliver news to him, which played a key role. Li Mu thought of this person, so he asked, "That 'flea on the drum', is it my father-in-law who recruited it?" ”

"Yes, he is now a villain." Saying that, Ergou was still a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "Bai Ye heard that the villain knows the Hou Ye, and he entrusted the villain with a heavy responsibility. Now under the command of Bai Ye, the villain sits in the second chair, and the people below call the villain 'Second Master'. It's also a coincidence, the villain's name is 'Zhao Shuangxi', double is two, the nickname is two, and the seat is also two, hehehe......"

"Hey, it turned out to be the second master in person." Li Mu laughed at him, clasped his fists, and said, "It's disrespectful, second master!" ”

Ergou was so frightened that his face changed, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said continuously: "Hou Ye can torture the villain, how dare the villain be Hou Ye and shout 'Second Master', the villain is Hou Ye's lackey, Hou Ye must stop teasing the villain, oops, the villain should die!" ”

"Just kidding, what are you doing so seriously." Li Mu knocked on Ergou's head with a horsewhip, and said: "You are a clever person, and you do things properly, I, my father-in-law, is gradually getting old, it is inevitable that I will be confused, you are by his side, and you also have a ...... to take care of" Li Mu looked at Ergou, and suddenly asked: "Ergou, let me ask you, do you know who gave you the job?" ”

Ergou was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and quickly kowtowed: "Master Hou, the villain understands in his heart that the villain is serving the rice bowl given by Master Hou." ”

"The brain is still clear!" Li Mu knocked him again and said, "Come on, get up, I'll give you a benefit later." ”

"Huh!" Ergou got up happily and continued to lead the horse for Li Mu happily, not even patting the dust off his pants, as if it was some kind of glory.

The grocery store is right next to the entrance to the market, a short walk away. This market has just been built, and there are few merchants, so naturally there are few customers. Li Mu and his entourage were all riding high-headed horses, and with Li Chongyi's size, it was very obvious at first glance, and someone had already reported it to Bai Hao'er.

Cheng Qian, the steward of Bai Nao'er Zhengma Farm, spoke, and when he heard Li Mu coming, he hurriedly threw everything down and came to the door to greet him. Li Mu got off the horse, saw Cheng Qian, beckoned him to come over, whispered a few words, Cheng Qian's eyes suddenly widened, he glanced at Li Mu, as if a fire had burned his buttocks, and ran his legs to the racecourse.

Bai Nao'er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Virtuous son-in-law, what did you tell him to rush him like that?" ”

"Alas!" Shepherd Li sighed, glanced at Bai Hao'er, turned around and walked inside, and said, "Let's talk about it when we go in." ”

Bai Hao'er hurriedly followed, Li Chongyi and the guards did not follow, but guarded the door of the grocery store, and the second dog also stayed conspicuously.

Entering the backyard and coming to the hall, Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien also came out of the back room, and seeing that Li Mu's face was a little ugly, Bai Qiaoqiao asked, "Husband, what's going on again?" ”

Li Mu glanced at Bai Hao'er and said, "It's not a big deal, it's ruined." ”

"Huh?" Bai Qiaoqiao hurriedly asked, "Why did you break the bank?" ”

Shepherd Li sighed, took out a holy decree from his arms, unfolded it, glanced at Bai Nao'er, and said, "Bai Chun takes the decree!" ”

The system of the Tang Dynasty was different from that of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and not all of the people who passed the decree were eunuchs. Only in the capital, the emperor's decree was conveyed by the eunuchs. When he left Beijing, he was concurrently served as a herald by a civil official in the territory. Even in the capital, not all eunuchs pass on the decree, the nature is different, there are also officials from various departments to pass the decree, and the one who does this job the most is the Wailang of the Ministry of Rites.

Bai Nao'er was already frightened, and when he heard the word 'receiving the order', his head buzzed. When in his life, did he ever think that he would also receive a holy decree one day! Bai Qiaoqiao reacted quickly, she took over the will of the order, knew how to receive the order, and whispered to Bai Nao'er. Bai Hao'er hurriedly went to find the Wang family who was doing needlework in the house, snatched the thread basket out of her hand, dragged it out and pressed it on the ground, and scolded: "Damn mother-in-law, marrying you is considered to be a blood mold, it doesn't help at all, and when her mother is here, she is a hundred times stronger than you......"

"Oh bad old man, that's not what you said......" Wang was about to refute, when he suddenly saw Bai Hao'er squeezing his eyebrows, and when he looked up and saw Li Muzai, he was so frightened that he quickly closed his mouth.

Li Mu took their appearance in his eyes, and didn't bother to speak, cleared his throat, and said, "Listen to the holy oracle, don't make noise!" ”

Bai Hao'er and Wang hurriedly bowed to the ground, their foreheads touched the ground, and their farts were sandwiched in their crotches and they didn't dare to let go.

Li Mulang said: "The edict said: I heard that there is a new market named 'Jingdong Market' near Happy Valley in Dongcheng, which is convenient for merchants and beneficial to the people. I am happy with it, but I ask the Hou of Zhulu. After being recommended by the Hou of Zhulu, Bai Chun was ordered to be the seventh grade of the city. I hope to do my best to live up to my hopes. The edict is from the right, and the Lord executes it. ”

After Li Mu finished reading, he closed the holy decree, handed it to Bai Hao'er, and said, "Take it, Lord Shiling." ”

"Thank you for your majesty's grace, your majesty's great kindness, in vain...... Ah, no, Chen Baichun is toothless and unforgettable. Although the Wang family didn't understand it, he also knew that his man was an official, so he also kowtowed.

Li Mu dodged to the side, looked at Bai Hao'er's red and swollen forehead, and said, "Okay, hurry up, do you want the holy decree?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Bai Hao'er hurriedly got up and rubbed his hand on his clothes before he received the holy decree in his hand. As if holding a golden bump, he hugged it tightly in his arms.

Bai Qiaoqiao was also happy for her father, but seeing that Li Mu's face was still not very good, she asked, "Husband, isn't it a good thing that my father has become an official?" Why are you upset? ”

"What are you happy about!" Li Mu said angrily: "Do you know how this official came here?" This is what I exchanged for 20% of the winery and 10% of the racecourse! Do you know how much it is, ma'am? ”

Li Mu said, holding his chest with one hand in a painful manner, and pointing at Bai Nao'er with the other finger tremblingly, and said, "If it weren't for your father, if I had to be an official, would I have lost so much money?!" ”

When Bai Qiaoqiao heard this, his face turned pale, and he immediately said, "No!" Dad, you can't be this official! ”

Bai Hao'er also looked apologetic, but seeing that Bai Qiaoqiao was about to come to grab the holy decree, he hurriedly took a step back and dodged it, holding the holy decree tighter.

Bai Qiaoqiao was so anxious that she stomped her feet and said, "Dad, why are you so ignorant!" Whether it's a winery or a horse farm, a component is worth a thousand gold! Not to mention the seventh-grade official, what about the fifth-grade and fourth-grade? With a husband here, are you still worried about not having food and clothing, you have to be an official! You're going to your daughter off! ”

Li Mu drooped his eyelids and watched the play while eating melons. He didn't mean to play tricks on Bai Qiaoqiao, his main purpose was to beat Bai Qiaoqiao, and he could also make Bai Qiaoqiao treat him better, by the way, why not do it?

But he still underestimated the shamelessness of Bai Hao'er, and the bottom line of Bai Hao'er is that there is no bottom line. When he saw Bai Qiaoqiao say this, he knelt down for Bai Qiaoqiao! The father actually knelt down for his daughter! Li Mu's eyes were about to fall out.

"Daughter, my father wants to be an official in this life, please, the virtuous son-in-law has helped my father do it, don't interfere!"

Bai Qiaoqiao had no choice but to kneel down and cry: "Dad, why are you forcing me like this......"

Li Zhien was so anxious that she couldn't help Bai Qiaoqiao, but she couldn't afford it, and looked at Li Mu pitifully.

Li Mu secretly said in his heart, no, he can't watch the play anymore. He didn't expect such a situation, so he quickly let go of the hand covering his chest, came over and hugged Bai Qiaoqiao, glared at Bai Nao'er and Wang, and said, "Get up, cry and cry what you want!" ”

Bai Qiaoqiao was about to speak, Li Mu took out the majesty of being a husband and said, "Your Majesty's will has been made, can it be changed?" Lady, if you think about your husband, let your husband save snacks, am I not all for you? ”

One sentence moved Bai Qiaoqiao to tears, and plunged into Li Mu's arms. Li Mu gently patted Bai Qiaoqiao's back to smooth her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but want to rise, this scene happened to be seen by Li Zhien next to her.

The little girl stared at Li Mu suspiciously for a while, Huo Ran understood what was going on, and secretly grimaced at Li Mu. Li Mu handed over a look, Li Zhien pursed his lips, and compared the shape of a candied fruit with his hand, meaning to tell Li Mu that if this matter wants to be sealed, it must be solved with candied fruit.

Li Mu hurriedly nodded and said in a deep voice to Bai Lao'er, who had just gotten up: "The matter has been decided, and it can't be changed." But I have to be clear. ”
