Chapter 207: Dilemma

About half an hour passed, Sun Simiao's voice came out through the hall door, and said, "Your Majesty, you can come in." ”

Hearing this, the two Jin Wuwei walked over and pushed open the heavy temple door. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun entered the hall, and the others were still waiting outside the hall. Li Shimin didn't care about the snow on the big cloud, and asked urgently: "Divine doctor, how is Li Mu?" ”

Before Sun Simiao could answer, he only heard Empress Changsun exclaim. Li Shimin looked over and was also taken aback. I saw that Li Mu had dozens of silver needles on his body, not to mention dozens of silver needles, looking like the reincarnation of a hedgehog.

In particular, the chest and abdomen are the most dense.

Li Shimin remembered what Sun Simiao said, could it be that this is the rumored "Zhou Tian Five Elements Needle"? Sure enough, it's extraordinary!

"Divine doctor, ...... this?"

Sun Simiao raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, the old man is fortunate not to be dishonored, and he can be regarded as snatching back the life of the Hou Zhulu!" ”

"Really?" Li Shimin sighed and said, "Fortunately, there is a divine doctor, otherwise Li Muke would ...... It's also his blessing, Divine Doctor, thank you so much! ”

"Your Majesty, it is the duty of a doctor to save people, and this is what the old man should do."

"The miracle doctor is too modest." Li Shimin asked again: "I wonder when Li Mu will wake up?" ”

Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "Zhuluhou vomited blood this time, hurting his internal organs, and already damaging his vitality. Although the old man snatched his life back with the "Zhou Tian Five Elements Needle", when he will wake up, the old man does not dare to assert, maybe he will wake up in the next moment, maybe he will not wake up in three or five days. ”

Li Shimin's heart rose again, and said, "Will you not wake up?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, you will definitely wake up when you wake up." Sun Simiao came to the couch, squatted down, and pulled out the needles one by one. Every movement, very carefully. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were beside him, and they didn't dare to take a breath for fear of disturbing him.

Pulling out the needle is obviously much faster than pricking the needle, and after about a stick of incense, the silver needle was pulled out, and Li Mu still didn't wake up.

Sun Simiao said: "Your Majesty, Zhuluhou is seriously ill this time, and it will not be cured in one or two days. It's better to send him back to the house, and it will be convenient for the old man to treat him. ”

Li Shimin said: "The divine doctor can stay in the palace." ”

Sun Simiao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's not good, it's not good, it's old." The old man is a country man, how can he stay in the palace and live. And this Taiji Hall is His Majesty's residence, and it is not suitable for Zhulu Hou to recuperate here, or please ask Your Majesty to find a step to send Zhulu Hou back to the house, it is not early, and the old decay is going back. ”

Li Shimin wanted to persuade him again, but Empress Eldest Sun pulled him and said to Sun Simiao: "Doctor Sun is reasonable, so do what Doctor Sun says." ”

Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun, Empress Changsun shook her head slightly, and then came to the door of the palace and ordered to go down.

Sun Simiao cleaned up the clothes that Li Mu had taken off, and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, please also give me a thicker shirt, the wind and cold have not healed, and the needle has just been applied, so I can't get cold." ”

Li Shimin hurriedly took off the bear skin on his body, Sun Simiao pushed it back, and said, "Your Majesty, fur is not allowed." ”

Li Shimin called the palace people to get a set of his own new clothes and put them on for Li Mu himself. After putting it on, he wrapped it in a quilt, let the two Jin Wuwei carry him to the step, and ordered Gao Gonggong to accompany him personally and send Li Mu back to the Zhuluhou Mansion.

Sun Simiao also said goodbye, and before leaving, he instructed Li Shimin to burn everything Li Mu had come into contact with with fire, and if it couldn't be burned, it should also be washed with a large amount of boiling water to prevent the infection of wind and cold.

Li Shimin responded one by one.

After Sun Simiao left, Li Shimin also changed his clothes, and the Taiji Hall needed to be cleaned, so Li Shimin came to the Lizheng Hall with Empress Changsun.

Li Shimin frowned, obviously still thinking about Li Mu's affairs.

"Your Majesty, the divine doctor has already said that Li Mu is fine, you don't have to be too sad."

"Alas...... I'm ashamed of Li Mu. Li Shimin sighed, suddenly remembered what had just happened, and asked, "Why did the queen stop me from keeping Li Mu?" ”

"The concubine is for His Majesty's consideration, and it is also for Li Mu's consideration." Empress Eldest Sun explained: "Your Majesty, what Doctor Sun said makes sense, it is indeed inappropriate for him and Li Mu to stay in the palace. Taiji Hall is a special place, Li Muruo stayed in Taiji Hall to recuperate, the monarch is not a king, the minister is not a minister, for fear of provoking criticism. Li Mu's temperament is impatient, some people say that he can't help but fight back, how can he recuperate if he is entangled like this? Your Majesty's pity, the concubine knows it in her heart, but there are things that can be done and things that cannot be done, if Your Majesty loves Li Mu, you should consider him more. ”

"The queen is right, this is exactly what I lack!" Li Shimin sighed and said: "I always care too much about the Shandong scholars, and the more humble they are, the more they grow their arrogance, so that Wei Zheng and his ilk often don't take me in their eyes!" ”

Li Shimin snorted indignantly and said, "I will not tolerate it this time, and I will definitely give Li Mu this breath!" ”

"Your Majesty, no."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "The queen wants to intercede for Wei Zheng and the others?" ”

"Your Majesty, that's not what the concubine meant." Empress Eldest Sun said: "Your Majesty, in terms of personal feelings. The concubine wants to favor Li Mu in her heart, and the concubine, like His Majesty, treats Li Mu as a nephew. But the concubine did not dare to forget that the concubine was the queen and the queen of His Majesty. And His Majesty is the lord of the world, the emperor has no family affairs, and the emperor's family affairs are state affairs. Li Mu has been wronged, and His Majesty can make up for it in other ways. But the law must not be disregarded because of this. ”

"I didn't ignore the law, and Lu Zhilin and others' impeachment of Li Mu was a false accusation. And Wei Zheng's daughter ran away from home by herself, but he has to rely on Li Mu's body, his heart can be punished, and I punish them, isn't it? ”

"Your Majesty, Lu Zhilin is certainly hateful, but he is the imperial history, and the duty of the imperial history is to hear about it. Rumors, true or false, if you punish the imperial history because of your words, over time, who will look at the admonitions? ”

"Then let him go?" Li Shimin shook his head and said: "No, I can't let Li Mu down anymore, otherwise I will have no shame to see him, and I must give him an explanation!" ”

Empress Eldest Sun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is in a hurry again, and the concubine didn't say that she would not be punished." The concubine means that His Majesty only needs to close his eyes in this matter, and as for the punishment...... Naturally, someone did it. ”

"Li Mu is unconscious now, who will do it?" Li Shimin paused for a moment, and suddenly said: "What does the queen mean, let me secretly send someone to ......?" ”

"Where does Your Majesty want to go, you think about it carefully. Li Mu had such a thing, what is more anxious now? ”

Li Shimin frowned and thought about it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "The queen is really smart, I almost forgot about them." Their money is in Li Mu's hands, is it more anxious than me, what does the queen mean, will they make a move? ”

"Even if they don't make a move, is Li Mu easy to bully? When he wakes up, the first thing he does is to take revenge, which is a certain thing. At that time, no matter what happens, Your Majesty will ignore it and let him be angry, won't it be okay? As for Wei Zheng'......"

Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin was furious and said: "This old thing, stubborn and hard, I can't wait to kill him!" ”

"Your Majesty, Wei Zheng can't be killed. If Li Mu has an accident this time, you can kill him. But since Li Mu is fine, he can't kill him. ”

Li Shimin was silent.

In fact, how could he not have thought of this? If Li Mu died, Datang Mining and Datang Salt Industry would inevitably be destroyed without anyone at the helm, and the imperial court would have to make concessions to the Shandong Shi clan and make a comeback.

But Li Mu didn't die, Wei Zheng became a scale on the scale pole, which was indispensable. Once he is killed, it will inevitably provoke a backlash from the Shandong Shi clan.

Li Shimin sighed and said, "Queen, I think that at this time, I can be a dumb person and do it once as I want." If I let Wei Zheng go again this time...... How to explain to Li Mu! I'm afraid that he will be disheartened and unwilling to assist me! ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that Li Mu is not such a child." said this, but in fact, the heart of the eldest grandson queen was also beating the drum. Li Mu's temper is there, he is a person who can't stand being wronged, he has endured it twice in a row because of the affairs of his father-in-law Li Ji and his brother-in-law Li Siwen. If you let Wei Zheng go again this time, it will be the third time.

Throughout the ages, those who are talented must have tempers. The talent that Li Mu shows now is not only the talent of the champion. Sun Fujia is the champion, although he is also remarkable in Dali Temple, but compared with Li Mu, he is superior to the judgment.

Before Li Mu came to Chang'an, he was trapped in the lonely city, not only saved the people of the city, but also had the courage and resourcefulness to recapture the jade seal of the country from Princess Yicheng. After coming to Chang'an, horseshoes, Zhenguan plows, and printing, which is not a good thing that is of great use? The most rare thing is his ability to make money. Which minister in the court is willing to give his money to the court to spend? Which minister can amass two million yuan of money in a short period of time? Which minister dares to say that he can double the internal funds in a year when he comes to manage the internal funds?

Only Li Mu can do it.

But did he get anything?

official, forced to resign. The title, which was obtained by the jade seal of the country, was obtained by the emperor. What did Li Shimin give him? When you think about it, it doesn't seem like there's really anything.

Empathy, on whom to rest, everyone will be disheartened.

But now, Empress Changsun can only be comforted like this, because Wei Zheng is related to the Shandong Shi clan. Failing Li Mu affected him alone. The killing of Wei Zheng will affect tens of thousands of people in the vast area of Shandong, and if the war breaks out, it will be ruined. As the queen, she had to advise.

Suddenly, an idea appeared in the mind of Empress Eldest Sun, and she leaned over to Li Shimin and muttered a few words in a low voice.

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Queen, it's a bit shady to do this, right?" ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that Li Mu may not think so."

Li Shimin thought about it, nodded, and said, "Okay, then do what the queen wants!" Someone came, and sent that Wei Yingluo and her maid to the Zhulu Hou Mansion together. In addition, it is proposed that Wei Zheng, Lu Zhilin and others make false accusations and be fined for half a year! ”
