Li Mu blinked, shook his head and said, "No!" ”

"Nonsense!" Li Shimin said angrily: "You clearly told me that you would make colored glass, and that day in the prison, didn't you show me that you made a colorful glass bottle?" And the perfume you dedicated to the queen, and this mirror, aren't they all made of glass? How can you lie with your eyes open? ”

Li Mu was speechless, and thought secretly, do you know that you still ask, what will I not answer if I don't answer?

Li Shimin was also a little embarrassed when he saw Li Mu's expression, he coughed lightly and said, "I tell you, your colorful glass bottle, send it to the palace, I want it." ”

"Why!"

"Huh?

Li Mu blurted out, and when the words came out, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, cold sweat broke out, and he hurriedly went back to make up for it, stammering and stubbornly saying: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are rich all over the world, you can't always worry about robbing the things of your courtiers, right?" The minister, the minister is still a child! ”

Li Shimin snorted coldly and said: "After the crown, you will be an adult, you yourself say that you are an adult, why are you pretending to be a child now?" Yu Gong, I am the emperor, you are a courtier, and the courtier should give treasures to the emperor. Yu Private, you call me uncle, but I am my son and nephew, this son and nephew are filial to their uncle, isn't it right? ”

Li Shimin picked up the mirror, looked at Li Mu, and said: "Let's just say this mirror, you just invented it, and you wanted to dedicate it to the queen and the four concubines, filial piety is commendable, and I am also pleased, but why is there no share of me?" The last perfume was the same, but it was only left behind. I think you did it on purpose! You kid hate me, there are good things to put aside me, Li Mu, you say it yourself, the minister hates the king, the nephew hates the uncle, you can be regarded as loyal and filial? ”

"This ......" Li Mu rolled his eyes, and said secretly in his heart, if I admit this, won't I be eaten to death by you in the future? What Lao Tzu has been pursuing is to be a wage earner, but not to give you Li Tang Jiangshan as a slave, thinking so in his heart, his stubborn temper also came up, and said: "If Your Majesty says so, then the minister will simply admit it." You also know the temper of the minister, the minister would rather be a farmer than a powerful person. Ministers do everything, seek respect, seek fairness. Since the minister came to Chang'an, the minister can say that except for His Majesty, the minister must be fair and respectful in front of anyone. Take yesterday's incident as an example, the king servant pitted the minister, and when the minister came out of the gate of the Taiji Palace, he punched him and slapped him with a blue eye-"

Li Shimin exclaimed: "No wonder Wang Jue took leave today, it turned out that you beat him!" Li Mu! Wang Qi is also a person who is almost old, how can you do it? It's too much! ”

Li Mu raised his head and said: "The minister doesn't care about that!" Chen and his younger brother Wang Pu became acquainted because of the original 'cattle and horse dispute', and then they had a friendship. The last time he poured dung, he went with the minister, and the minister treated him as his own, just when he found the minister and said that the road was not good, and the coal could not be transported, the minister thought, since this matter is led by the minister, the minister has the responsibility to manage it to the end, plus drank a few glasses of wine, and casually told him the idea. Who would have thought that this guy in the king would not want to give face, and if you want to benefit you, you will quietly accept it, and turn back to give me a tens of thousands of times to chat and show some inches, isn't it over? He just got cheap and behaved, and when he was in his seventies, he learned from those dogs and played a generous statement, if it wasn't for His Majesty, the minister would have beaten him at that time. In the end, he couldn't get around, and he pulled the minister into the water, what kind of person is this, it's so bad that it's smoking! If the minister doesn't beat him, won't he be so angry that he vomits blood again? ”

"You!" Li Shimin sighed and said, "Li Mu, as your uncle, I have to say a few words about you." Your father died early, recognized Li Ji as his father-in-law, and the time spent with him was short, and he couldn't teach you anything by word and deed. As your uncle, it is my duty to teach you. No matter how old you are this year, since you have been crowned, you are an adult and a man. A man must have a heart. Only when you have a big mind can you do great things. I! ”

Li Shimin pointed to himself and said: "Take me as an example, my thesis is not worth mentioning, and it is enough to praise martial arts, among my Tang Dynasty generals, it can be ranked in the top three——"

Li Mu noticed that when Li Shimin said 'top three', his expression was extremely stinky fart, looking at his expression and listening to his words, it was clearly saying that Lao Tzu was the first, what Li Jing, Li Ji, Li Xiaogong, all of them were inferior to me.

Li Mu hurriedly squeezed out a flattering smile and patted his fart: "In the hearts of the ministers, Your Majesty is the first emperor of the ages, and the emperors of future generations will definitely take Your Majesty as an example and try their best to follow suit." ”

"Don't mess around, you kid, I still know what I look like...... It has been four years since I ascended the throne, and apart from the destruction of the Turks, which is a little merit, there is no achievement in civil and martial arts, what is there to emulate by future kings? And I still ......" Li Shimin paused, smiled, and said: "Don't say it, although I don't have any political achievements that I can handle, I believe that sooner or later there will be." ”

Li Mu nodded hurriedly.

Li Shimin continued: "What I want to tell you is that I am not the first in the world, and the martial arts are not the first, why can I control so many talents in the DPRK and China? The answer is the word mind. ”

"Wei Zheng provoked me, was angry, and even scolded me, but I didn't kill him, why? Wei Zheng is just a speech official, he said casually, he can't control what I do. In that case, what am I going to do with him? I want the world to know that I have a measure of tolerance. As for right and wrong, I have descendants to comment, and I believe that if I do a good job, future generations of historians will not say that I am wrong, and the people will not say that I am wrong. ”

Li Mu blinked his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about killing Wei Zheng?" ”

"Yes!"

Unexpectedly admitted it so happily, Li Mu was speechless.

Li Shimin smiled: "But I just don't kill him, so I am me, and I am the emperor." ”

Li Mu rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, it makes no sense for you to say to your ministers that these ways of being a king." The minister is not a prince, and he will never be able to become an emperor, and the minister is not willing to be an emperor. The minister told the truth, the minister saw that His Majesty was angry, and the minister didn't want to be the emperor. The minister couldn't figure it out, if a person lives for a lifetime, he can not be angry, why should he be angry? Let's just say that this Wang Jue, he is seventy and he is justified? He can pit people when he is seventy? I gave him a good idea, he will take revenge on me, I can't beat him yet? Now it is His Majesty who is wise and treats his ministers like sons and nephews, so that the ministers are not punished, if not? The life of the minister, and even the life of the minister's family, may all die because of Wang Qi's words! Your Majesty thinks that it is wrong for the minister to beat people, but the minister thinks that the beating is still light, and I should pour feces into his well to let him know how smelly his mouth is! ”

Li Shimin was angry and scolded: "You can't teach your son!" If you keep thinking like this, how can I entrust you with such a responsibility in the future? ”

Li Mu spread his hands and said: "Your Majesty, when did the minister ask Your Majesty to entrust him with a heavy responsibility!" Your Majesty, do you have any misunderstanding, the minister has always been very lazy, the minister wants to have a winter vacation, it is you and these people who don't let it, if you have nothing to find the minister, the minister has already gone to the suburbs to build a house in the winter, why will he still appear here? ”

Li Mu ignored Li Shimin and snorted angrily, and imagined: "Your Majesty, the life that the minister wants to live is to have a piece of land, and then build a house designed by the minister himself, grow and harvest himself, and feed the family. I can't ask anyone, I don't need anyone, no one comes to me, be safe, happy, live this life plainly, have a few more children, both men and women, that's enough! The Emperor Taishang gave the minister the word Xiaoyao, and the minister thought that the Emperor Taishang was really as wise as a torch, and the minister's pursuit was the word Xiaoyao! It's too complete! ”

Li Shimin was furious, stood up and pointed at Li Mu and scolded: "Ridiculous! The husband should carry a seven-foot sword and make contributions! You have a God-given ability, but you just want to be safe, you ...... Get out of here, I don't want to see you! ”

"Oh." Li Mu was not afraid, answered, saluted the eldest grandson queen again, and turned around to leave.

"Stop!"

Li Mu had no choice but to stop, turned around and said, "What else is there to do Your Majesty?" ”

Li Shimin glared at him angrily, and it took a long time before he calmed down and said, "Send the colorful glass bottle tomorrow." ”

"Don't give it!"

"You kid is presumptuous!" Li Shimin jumped to his feet and said: "Speaking of which, you still haven't said why you don't just honor me!" Are you going to be angry with me? ”

Li Mu said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, the minister didn't finish what he said just now, so let's talk briefly." The meaning of the minister is that whoever is good to the minister, the minister will be good to whom. Even if he is not good to the minister, the minister will be polite and thoughtful. But if anyone treats the minister badly, the minister does not say it, but remembers it in his heart. Your Majesty still remembers the last time he was in prison, didn't the minister say it? Originally, the method of making glaze was intended to be used for internal money, but His Majesty put the minister in prison, and the minister changed his mind and did not want to dedicate it to His Majesty. If Your Majesty has to ask for it, the minister can't say anything, and the minister remembers in his heart that His Majesty has robbed the minister of the same thing. The minister will secretly write a book of 'Zhulu Hou Living Note', and leave it to the descendants of the descendants, so that the descendants of the ministers can guard against the descendants of His Majesty, lest the descendants of His Majesty inherit His Majesty's habit of grabbing things, and then rob the children and grandchildren of the ministers, I really can't stand it, and find a chance to run away. After all, even if you have tens of thousands of family wealth, you can't bear the royal family to rob it like this, Your Majesty, do you say? ”

Li Shimin was really squeezed and couldn't hang his face, and roared: "Gao Gan, you take my sword, I have to split him today—no, no, I don't want to look at him for a moment, you, you cut him with your hands!" ”

Gao Gonggong broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and said secretly in his heart, Your Majesty, let's not make trouble, the old slave, I didn't do it, if the old slave did it, if I did it, I really split him, and the old slave would have to let you split it!

Gao Gonggong closed his eyes, looked at his nose and nose, and made a wooden man, without any reaction at all.

"Gao Gan! You don't listen to me anymore!? ”

"The old slave doesn't dare." Grandpa Gao simply knelt down, what do you like, I'm not a fool, I will never do such a stupid thing.

Empress Changsun watched from the side, and when she saw Li Shimin's jumping feet, she was amused in her heart, and at the same time, she was surprised by Li Shimin's attention to Li Mu.

In the conversation between the two monarchs and ministers just now, there are too many forbidden places. Not to mention anything else, that is, Li Mu, as a courtier, actually discussed with the emperor that he didn't want to be the emperor, which dynasty and which generation would not die? But looking at Li Shimin's expression just now, he didn't take it seriously, which is really unusual.

What is it about Li Mu that makes him so relieved? Empress Eldest Sun didn't figure it out either.

But she knew that she had to step up and give a step.

Empress Changsun stopped Li Shimin, who was going to get the sword in person, and persuaded with a smile: "Your Majesty just said that the eldest husband needs to be tolerant, why can Your Majesty tolerate Wei Zheng, but not Li Mu?" Wei Zheng is against His Majesty everywhere, although Li Mu is a little naughty, but he has really made a lot of contributions, and the concubine hopes to ask Your Majesty to think twice. ”

Li Shimin waited for this step, glanced at the eldest grandson queen, glared at Li Mu again, and said angrily: "You kid, you have a lot of hearts and eyes, you are my queen, and you have been bribed successfully to speak to you." That's it, this time for the queen's sake, I will spare you once. ”

"Thank you, Queen."

"Why don't you thank me?"

"Didn't Your Majesty say that for the sake of the queen, Your Majesty is going to split the minister, why should the minister thank a person who wants to split the minister."

Li Shimin was speechless, and stretched out his hand to point at Li Mu: "Hurry up!" ”

Li Mu saluted honestly, turned around and left. Li Shimin's voice came from behind him: "Three days later, I will ask the prince, if you don't teach, I will beat you with ten rods, if you don't bring the colorful glass bottle to the palace, I will beat you twenty, I am not joking, I will do what I say!" You can do it yourself, and I will have to give the queen a copy of the things that I will send to the queen in the future, and if I don't have my share, I will let Gao Gan go to your house to get it. That broken living note of yours, you can write how you want to write, I have laid down the country, I just robbed it, I'm afraid you will say? ”

Li Mu heard the anger in his tone, only felt a cool breeze coming from the back of his neck, quickly shrunk his neck, and ran away as if he were running away.

However, he didn't run far, took a detour, and came to the Chongwen Hall between the Lizheng Hall and the Taiji Hall. At this time, it was not yet noon, and the Chongwen Hall had not yet finished school. When Li Mu slipped over quietly, Kong Yingda was teaching the students 'what is benevolent government'.

Li Muli listened secretly under the eaves of the porch for a while, and I have to say that despite prejudices, Kong Yingda's class is still very good. If you say that there are no bright spots, but they are decent and very solid. It basically conveys the meaning of Confucius completely, and is worthy of the name of the descendants of Confucius. If he were to be left in the future generations and do the reading comprehension of the ancient texts of the Analects, he would definitely be able to get a full score as a scholar.

But the more Li Mu listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. Gradually, he felt that this was not wrong because Confucius was wrong, but that the times were different, and the benevolence depicted by Confucius was too idealistic. Maybe the people in the Spring and Autumn Period were so simple and kind. But now in the Tang Dynasty, the people are different. How can it still be applied?
