After choosing his son's name, Li Mu wanted to name his daughter again. The sons are all called 'Li Bai', and the daughter is a few hours older than the son, and after thinking about it, only 'Li Qingzhao' is still suitable. But after thinking about it carefully, Li Qingzhao's fate doesn't seem to be very good, especially in terms of karma, the first husband is a coward, and the second husband is a scumbag.

Li Qingzhao doesn't need it, and the name that matches it has to be surnamed Li, so it doesn't seem to be too suitable. Li Mu stared at his daughter for a while, her head was as big as a melon, and said, "I can't afford it today, I'm not inspired, let me think about it." As he spoke, he kissed his daughter's head: "When Dad thinks about it, he will definitely give you a good name!" ”

When the third daughter heard this, she couldn't help but pouted secretly, and pinched her sweat for her daughter. Li Mu's ability to name him, they have just seen it. One of my father's mother's surnames is Li, and the other is Bai, so I named Li Bai. What is this called, a farmer with a little money, when he gives birth, he knows to find a name for his husband, Li Mu is really too child's play. But it can't be said that the name Li Bai, although child's play, contains Li Mu's love for Qiaoqiao. There are so many men in the world, how many are willing to add the surname of their wife to their son's name?

In this era, in the final analysis, women are still vassals of men. is only a weirdo like his husband, who never looks down on women, which is also his most attractive point.

Qiaoqiao, of course, was moved by Li Mu's actions, and was about to cry, although she felt that she was a little sorry for her son, but she thought about it again, whose name was not taken by her parents. In Mayi, those who grew up with him, and those who are called Wang Goudan, I haven't seen them say anything. Compared with Wang Goudan, Li Bai is much better. Qiaoqiao took his son over, pasted his fleshy little face, and said, "Son, you will have a name in the future, your name is Li Bai, is it good?"

Zhang Tianai and Jin Chen, seeing Qiaoqiao, finally accepted it, and couldn't help but think of themselves. If this becomes a rule, when he is born, what is the name of the child, Li Zhang? Li Jin? What's this called? But if he objected, Li Mu should not insist on his opinion, but in this way, the child's name will not have his own surname, as if he has lost something.

Zhang Tianai was worried, and suddenly saw Jin Chen pursing his lips and being happy, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "You still have the leisure to laugh, your child has to be called Li Jin, if the boy is better, the girl is so ashamed." Li Jin, gift money, as if going to someone's house to drink wedding wine, "

Jin Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not the same as you, although my name is Jin Chen." But I followed my mother's surname, and now that I am married to my husband and come to the Central Plains, I should follow my father's surname. My father's surname is Tong, if I give birth to a daughter, I will change my father's surname back to my father's surname and name the child Li Tongtong, which is better than Li Jin, right? ”

"Still with this? Why haven't I heard from you? Zhang Tianai looked at Li Mu and said, "Husband, is this true?" She's not lying, is she? ”

"Not really." Li Mu briefly talked about what happened in the dungeon of Camel Valley that day, and said: "My father-in-law left a message, planning to change her name, but he is used to it, there is no need to change it, the name is just a code name, just say it." ”

Jin Chen nodded, agreeing with Li Mu's words, but said, "If I give birth to a daughter, I will change it." ”

……

Bai Qiaoqiao had just given birth to a child, and her body was still very weak. After talking for so long, it's a little wilted. After feeding the child, let the old mother take over the child. Li Mu wanted to take care of it personally, but he was a big man and a novice father, what could he understand? Jin Chen knows a little, but he is not as skilled as the old mothers. Zhang Tianai doesn't want to mention it, she knows how to use knives, guns, swords, and halberds, but she doesn't know anything about taking care of children.

After the child fell asleep, he rested in the cradle made by Li Mu himself. Put it next to the bed, so that Bai Qiaoqiao can see it at any time. A few days ago, when Li Mu was practicing carpenter skills, he made two cradles. I didn't expect Bai Qiaoqiao to give birth to two, one of them was for Wang Ou's child, and now I had to take it and use it first. When you have time, just make another one.

Of course, Li Mu wanted to stay with Bai Qiaoqiao, and Jin Chen and Zhang Tianai went back to their rooms. Wei Yingluo settled down the things outside, replied a few words at the door, and didn't come in to disturb.

Bai Qiaoqiao was so tired that she lay in Li Mu's arms, muttered a few words, and fell asleep again. Li Mu hugged her, looked at his pair of children, and infinite satisfaction rose in his heart. He was a man for two lives, and he became a father for the first time. Although the age of this life is a bit young, in this era, it is not small at all, and it is a suitable age. Counting the twenty-eight years of his previous life, his mental age, it is time to be a father.

Suddenly, Li Mu remembered something. The child was born, and I haven't told my mother yet. Although Sun is not his mother-in-law, in his heart, he is like his mother-in-law. Li Muqing easily opened the sleeping Qiaoqiao, helped him cover the quilt, and tiptoed out of bed. The two children were full and slept soundly, Li Mu glanced at the children, put on his clothes, and came to the outhouse.

Li Mu lit the candle and borrowed the light of the candle. wrote a letter to her mother, informing her that the child had been born, and attached the child's birth date to the child. It was put in an envelope and painted with fire paint. Li Mu wrote another simple note, which was intended for Li Shimin. Although it is a bit redundant, if he doesn't write, Li Shimin will also know, but after all, he has asked repeatedly before, and it is appropriate to tell him.

After writing this letter to Li Shimin, many people popped up in Li Mu's head. Father-in-law is in vain, although Li Mu doesn't treat him very well. But after all, he is Qiaoqiao's father, and these two children are his grandsons and granddaughters, so he has to tell him, otherwise Qiaoqiao will not be able to explain there.

Li Ji is his stepfather, his own child, and his grandchildren, he must be told. In addition, now that he is Li Jiancheng's heir, Zheng Guanyin is nominally his mother-in-law, so he has to tell him over there.

Cheng Biting Jin, with his provocative personality, if he doesn't tell him, he will definitely be provocative the next time they meet.

And the old man who planted potatoes in the valley was like a grandson to himself, and he couldn't say anything if he didn't tell him—

Li Mu had no choice but to write note by note, and before he knew it, it was dawn......

……

When Li Mu's flying pigeon arrived, Li Shimin had already received the news for six or seven hours. The news he received was divided into two groups, the first was when his daughter was born, and the fan of Dongchang got the news and immediately rushed to Chang'an for 800 miles. When the son was born, it was a few hours later, and another group of people were sent. As for Li Mu's news, it was sent out the next morning, and Li Shimin received it in the evening, and the interval between the two was not six or seven hours.

But on Li Shimin's side, he can only react when Li Mu's news comes. Otherwise, he would be equivalent to admitting that he had planted eyeliner next to Li Mu, although this was an obvious matter, but Li Shimin would not admit it. Therefore, when he got the news, he didn't show it, and when Li Mu's urgent report came in the evening, he 'heard that Luoyang Hou had a pair of children, and Longyan was happy', and the living note was written like this.

Rewards, naturally, there are them. But it was already evening, and the palace gate had already fallen. No matter how anxious it is, it's the next day. It just so happened that there was no major event in the court today, so Li Shimin said this matter as idle talk, and asked the hundred officials to give some advice, how to reward Li Mu's children.

Although Li Mu is no longer in the court, his influence is everywhere. Now the three provinces and six ministries, which one must not rely on the snort of the Internal Affairs Office, and who makes the Internal Affairs Government rich? After the three provinces and six ministries changed their budget system, each kept its own money, for fear that it would run out and have nowhere to fill it. The House of Internal Affairs has become a good place for them to fight the autumn breeze.

It stands to reason that the money of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is His Majesty's treasury, and no one is allowed to touch it. But who made the whole world belong to Your Majesty? If anyone in the six parts really can't open the pot, Li Shimin can't really see death and not save him. Most of them will still pull a little bit, and the Internal Affairs Office is not just allocating funds. The brain is a little more flexible, and some are ways to make money.

For example, there are many mountain bandits in the land of Yunnan and Guizhou, and there is always a fear of being robbed when transporting goods, so the order is lucrative. The merchants, in order to ensure the completion of the order, are very willing to hire local government soldiers to help transport goods, which not only leaves labor, but also saves bodyguards.

The Ministry of War can also earn a protection fee because of this, although it is not too much, but it is better than nothing, right?

The list goes on.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is now ostensibly returned to the East Palace. But in fact, Li Mu's influence is deep-rooted. Although his Datang Technical School, although it was closed after only two sessions, the students of these two phases basically served in the Internal Affairs Office, especially the students in the first phase, all of them could take charge of themselves and respect Li Mu like a god, more or less imitating his words and deeds, and work style. Even those who originally had a gate valve background put Li Mu above their own homes, and they didn't know what kind of ** soup was poured into them.

Whoever wants to say that Li Mu doesn't say a word, in the future, the door of the Internal Affairs Office will not be next to each other, and he will be isolated immediately.

Having a child, in any era, is a happy event. Even if Li Mu is not very good at dealing with people, it is not easy to say anything unpleasant when he encounters this matter. It was Li Shimin who opened his mouth again, and they all gave some suggestions. It is nothing more than giving gold locks, silk, gold and silver, etc., which have always been these things.

Everyone talked a lot, but Li Shimin did not express his position. When Baiguan saw him like this, he understood in his heart that this was not to the point, not to the heart. So, what is your majesty's mind? These rewards are already very good, after all, they are just giving birth to children, and they are not meritorious service, promotion or something, it's a bit excessive.

Li Shimin's mind is indeed difficult to guess. Even Grandpa Gao can't figure it out this time. After receiving the news yesterday, Li Shimin 'Longyan Dayue', and then he should look at the excerpts and look at the excerpts, there is nothing special about it. He didn't consult with anyone, and he didn't mumble, no one knew what he didn't think.

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me." Li Shimin interrupted everyone and said, "I listened to the advice of the Aiqing, which is nothing more than money. Li Musheng has a good way to make money, how can his family wealth be more than one million? Qing and the others all know. He may not be able to see these things, and he doesn't need them. How can I send back a congratulatory gift, how can it be so cheesy? ”

Everyone looked at each other, and thought to themselves: Obediently, shouldn't it really be guessed, Your Majesty wants to take this opportunity to give Li Mu another official knighthood, right? He is already the first marquis of the Tang Dynasty, so why don't you want to discuss the title of prince again? Isn't it time to be crowned king? That's!

The few bigwigs standing in front of each other looked at each other, but no one stood up. In the end, it was Wei Zheng who stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the birth of a son by the Marquis of Luoyang, although it is a happy event, it is not a merit, and it should not be rewarded." His Majesty's desire to reward is a part of His Majesty's wishes, and the funds are out of the inner treasury, and the ministers dare not stop them. But if you say anything else, it is a bit too much, please think twice, Your Majesty. ”

Wei Zheng is a pun, and his implication is that if Li Mu gives birth to a child, it will be considered a credit. Then tomorrow, if any Hou Ye gives birth to a child, it will be considered a credit? Your Majesty wants to be rewarded? In addition, I also point out to Li Shimin, now that the treasury is empty, you can reward it if you want, but no matter how much money you spend, you can take it out of your own pocket, and the money in the treasury can't be spent in this place.

"Gong Wei is old enough to seek the country, and he is extremely reasonable." Li Shimin nodded, as if he had listened to it: "I also think so, and what I want to give to Li Mu is not these." ”

"What else could it be?" Everyone guessed in their hearts, and suddenly, Wei Zheng seemed to think of something, his eyes widened, and he lost his voice: "Your Majesty, no!" ”

What can't you do?

Everyone was puzzled and looked at Wei Zheng, and at the same time, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others also guessed, this time no one pretended to be cowardly, and they all took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is definitely not feasible!" ”

Li Shimin saw that the six ministries of the three provinces all stood up to oppose it, and finally laughed: "Before I can say it, you will say no." It seems that this idea of mine is really a bit Meng Lang. However, I have made up my mind, and this matter is a private matter after all, so let's make up my mind. I want to make a decree to give marriage, so that Jin Wangzhi can marry Li Mu's eldest daughter, the two children are the same age, it must be a heaven-sent relationship. ”

"Your Majesty! This is not possible! The eldest grandson Wuji actually knelt down and pestle his head: "Your Majesty, this matter is not only unreasonable, but also extremely inappropriate in terms of seniority." Li Mu is His Majesty's son and nephew, how can he be a son and daughter? Moreover, the King of Jin is His Majesty's son-in-law—"

The eldest grandson Wuji meant, how can Li Mu's daughter He De be able and how can she be worthy, but Li Shimin didn't let him say it: "Auxiliary, I have said it, this is my family matter." I said it just now, but it's just a casual conversation. Could it be that my family affairs also have to be decided by foreign ministers?
