Ergou took the money and went to run errands, Li Mu looked at the second general at the door, and said, "You two are also going to go for a walk?" ”

Dugu Jiu didn't react, and said, "Big brother, I'll just stand here, you can talk about yours." ”

Li Mu coughed.

Li Chongyi reached out and grabbed Dugu Jiu's neck collar and carried him out. Li Mu stretched his neck and shouted: "Remember to buy two catties of candied fruit and come back, Zhi'en wants to eat." ”

"Oh!"

Li Chongyi replied stiffly, buying things for Li Zhien, he was always not so happy.

The light bulb was sent away, Li Mu closed the door, turned around and went to hug Wang Ou. Wang Ou glanced at Li Mu and stretched out his hand to hug him, Li Mu pouted and wanted to kiss, but Wang Ou stretched out his hand to block him.

"What are you doing?" Li Mu showed a look of displeasure, Wang Ou hurriedly touched his lips, and coaxed: "Lang, this is not our own place after all, there are many people, and it is not good for people to see it." If you want to get close to the slave family, let's change places. ”

"Somewhere else?"

Li Mu thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible to change places, it's just that there is no too suitable place." ”

Wang Ou stretched out his hand and pointed to the house next to him, and said, "Lang, what do you think of there?" ”

"It's a good house, but if I'm not mistaken, there should be someone here. What, you bought it? ”

Wang Ou nodded and said, "This mansion was originally given to Duke Lai Guo by His Majesty. But Lai Guogong has never lived, so it is vacant. Now that Lai Guogong is seriously ill, he sold the house, and when I learned the news, I bought it through an intermediary. ”

Li Mu was puzzled: "Why does Lai Guogong have to sell his house when he is seriously ill, does he have no money to see a doctor?" ”

Wang Ou said: "Lang, Lai Guogong has received the emperor's grace, and he has received an unknown number of rewards, how can he have no money to see a doctor." That's the case, if the Duke of Lai Guo dies of illness, according to the system, his eldest son will be the lord, but he will have to keep filial piety for three years before he can come out to be an official. Selling the surplus mansion, firstly, to reduce expenses, and secondly, because of Du Xiang's death, the power of Lai Guogong's line will be greatly damaged, and it is impossible not to covet such a well-located mansion. More is better than less, and if you sell it early, you can also save worry. ”

Li Mu does not doubt that he has him, and now this house in Chang'an is actually not very nervous. Many of the houses, like those of the homeless children of Kwong Tak Fong, are vacant. This is related to the turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, although more than ten years have passed, but today's Chang'an City is not as prosperous as one-third of the Sui Emperor Wendi, and the population is not as large as it was then, so it is naturally idle a lot.

Li Shimin sometimes wanted to reward the minister, but when he had no money, he would see where there was vacant land and reward a few mansions at will. This is a reward that is usually not very popular with those who receive it. Because most of these houses have not been lived in for more than ten years, and now if you want to live in them, you have to repair them. It's all money!

The house that Wang Ou bought, if he wants to live in it, he has to repair it. This matter is very simple, Li Mu said hello in the Ministry of Industry and asked Yuwen Gui to send a team of people over, anyway, the craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry are all idle and have nothing to do.

I have to say that Wang Ou does choose a place.

Li Mu will come to heaven and earth to sit when he has nothing to do, so no one will find it strange that he appears here. In the future, Li Mu only needs to enter the heaven and earth from the main gate, and then he can go to Wang Ou's house from the side door, stay as long as he wants, and come out whenever he wants, and everyone else will only be Li Mu in heaven and earth.

The more Li Mu thought about it, the happier he became, and he hugged Wang Ou and kissed him. He took out the perfume and soap specially prepared for Wang Ou from his arms, and explained it to her, Wang Ou hurriedly followed Li Mu's teaching, smeared a little perfume on his wrist, and sniffed it gently, it was the fragrance of peony flowers, and he liked it very much.

But thinking of these two treasures, Li Mu invented them in order to open a shop for Bai Qiaoqiao, and he felt a little apprehensive.

Li Mu noticed the change in her expression, and secretly said in her heart, women are women, women are jealous, even if she knows that there is no need to drink this vinegar, she has to smell it.

"Angry?"

Wang Ou shook his head, twisted his body, and said: "The slave family is just an outer room of the Hou family, how can you be angry and envious, such a thought, the Hou Ye must not spend it on the slave family." ”

"Oh," Li Mu teased: "Just now, I was affectionate with a 'Lang', and now I have become 'Hou Ye' again." Isn't that angry? ”

Wang Ou was still stiff-mouthed and said, "No." ”

"How could I have forgotten you?" Li Mu took out another thing from his arms, which was a folded piece of paper. This piece of paper is a sketch drawn by Li Mu. Li Mu handed over the sketch and said, "I remember that you have a silk shop, and this is just right for you." ”

"What?" Wang Ou took it curiously, unfolded the paper and looked at it, blushed and threw it on the table, and said angrily: "What is this, ashamed to death." ”

"It's called a new belly pocket." Li Mu stretched out his hand and pointed to the picture on the paper, and explained to Wang Ou: "Look here, there are two belts, its function is to hold up a woman's breasts, so that women's curves are more exquisite, it is the gospel of flat-chested girls, and a sharp weapon for married young women......"

Wang Ou's face flushed with shame, and said, "What are you talking about, don't say it." ”

Li Mu had no choice but to stop, he looked at Wang Ou, suddenly leaned close to her ear, and said, "Whether you make it or not, sell it as goods...... Why don't you make one and put it on, so I can see it? ”

"Hmph," Wang Ou glanced at Li Mu, and didn't say yes, but he didn't say no.

Li Mu laughed and stopped laughing. Picked up the pen on the table, unfolded a piece of rice paper, and began to write.

Wang Ou folded Li Mu's sketch and put it away, and when he saw Li Muyun's pen flying, he came over to look at it. Li Mu's words are still miserable. But it was not to the point of being unrecognizable, Wang Ou only thought that Li Mu was writing advertising words at first, but after looking at it for a while, the expression on his face became serious.

Li Mu was actually making an article.

In this day and age, writing an essay is a big deal. Composition here refers to writing an 'argumentative essay'. No, it's telling a story. It's not poetry, it's an expression of emotion. An article that explains the truth and solves the question of 'why'.

The so-called words of the sage are such articles. The imperial examination is also such an article, which is called 'policy theory'.

The point is on one word!

This article by Li Mu discusses the way of being a teacher.

I saw Li Mu slowly write: no noble, no cheap, no long and no less, where the Tao exists, what the teacher saves......

Wang Ou looked at Li Mu's words, looked up at him again, and his heartbeat began to speed up again.

Li Mu's poems have captured her heart. Now she has found that Li Mu's article has also done so well. Originally, I was worried that Li Mu would suffer a loss in the imperial examination. Now it seems that genius is genius, not only poetry is done well, but this strategy is also unmatched. With this sentence, if you look at the world, no one can reach it.

Wang Ou looked at Li Mu's eyes becoming more and more gentle, and consciously helped him sharpen his ink without Li Mu's instructions. Li Mu glanced at her and didn't say anything. He finally understood why the ancients regarded 'red sleeves and fragrance' as a joy in life, and when he was working hard, there was no one to serve him, which was really not too pleasant.

Suddenly thinking of what he told Ergou to do, the corners of Li Mu's mouth couldn't help but hook an arc.

It's almost time, and that bullshit Yushi named Lu Zhilin should also be worth from the Yushi stage.

Soon, he will also enjoy the pleasure of 'adding incense'.

Night incense, too!

Although Lu Zhilin failed to participate in Li Mu today, he was not disappointed. Because he dared to participate in Li Mu's matter, he had already made him in the limelight in Yushitai. And because Wei Zheng did not stand up to support, the imperial historians from the Shandong Shi clan in the Yushitai had a lot of complaints about Wei Zheng. thought that he only cared about his personal feelings and ignored his righteousness, and when he was on duty in the afternoon, many people had already come to Lu Zhilin and expressed their admiration for his bravery. Faintly, Lu Zhilin is already the most popular figure in Yushitai except for Wei Zheng, the imperial historian.

If this continues, when the Ministry of Officials is taking the merit test, I'm afraid that he, the superintendent of the imperial history, will have to move upwards. Since Zhao Qing impeached Li Mu in the imperial history and was exiled to Lingnan. There is one less Yushi Zhongcheng in the Imperial History Tower, which Lu Zhilin didn't dare to think about at first, but now it seems that he can also think about it.

The wheels of the carriage pressed against the bluestone pavement, making a creaking sound, and it was almost at the door of the house. Suddenly, the speed of the carriage slowed down, Lu Zhilin frowned, and asked the coachman, "Why did you slow down?" ”

"If you go back to the master, there is a car carrying night incense in front."

"Night Fragrance Car?"

Night incense, which is 'dung', was used in ancient times to fill dung in wooden barrels, and it needed to be emptied after being filled. Therefore, there will be a special person in the middle of the night to collect the feces in the toilet bowl of each house, because it is carried out at night, and the feces have a smell, so it is called night incense.

Lu Zhilin opened the curtain and went out to look. Sure enough, there was a night fragrance car in front.

Lu Zhilin hurriedly covered his nose with his sleeve, he has a small problem with this person, he loves to be clean. And it's not the general love of clean, usually on the upper value, you have to bring two sets of clothes, the upper court wears the court clothes, and the lower court changes another set. If you sweat a lot, can you still wear sweat-soaked clothes? You have to throw it away!

A dung truck came in front of him, how could Lu Zhilin stand it.

"What's going on with this night incense car, night incense and night incense, it has to be a matter of the night, it's not dark yet, why is it ...... Hurry up and dodge it. ”

The coachman answered, and drove the carriage to the right.

The two cars were getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, Lu Zhilin also smelled it, and he felt nauseous in his stomach, and he couldn't help urging the driver to hurry up. The coachman had no choice but to flick the whip tightly, and seeing that the two cars were staggered, he was about to miss it, but it was not wrong to pass. Suddenly, the donkey of the night fragrance cart snorted, saying that it was too late, and the night fragrance cart overturned, and Lu Zhilin watched a huge wooden barrel turn upside down towards him, and a whole bucket of manure was poured into his car. His face, body, and feces and urine were all over his body.
