Li Mu looked at Bai Qiaoqiao, stared for a while, and suddenly laughed, and said: "The lady is really different, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hide anything from the lady in the future." ”

Bai Qiaoqiao said angrily: "What are you talking about, husband, why are you hiding it from me?" My husband and I are of the same mind, and when we encounter something, we should have faced it together, right? ”

"That's right," Li Mu smiled bitterly, lowered his head, and said, "But I don't want my wife to face these things with me, because my husband is incompetent, and my mother can't be stable even if she is pregnant——"

"Husband, don't you still want to say it?"

"Say." Facing Bai Qiaoqiao's gaze, Li Mu really couldn't say the word 'don't want to', so he had to sigh and start to organize the language. Bai Qiaoqiao took Li Mu's hand, and the temperature came from the palm, Li Mu looked up, and suddenly felt ridiculous in his heart, the woman in front of him was his wife. Now that we've tied the knot, what can't we say?

"Lady, you guessed right, this time is different from every previous time, I really don't know the bottom in my heart."

"Because of Sister Ou?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "Your Majesty already knows about me and the gull. Your Majesty is furious and wants to put me to death. ”

Although Bai Qiaoqiao had heard some rumors, she was not as shocked as she heard from Li Mu's mouth, she grabbed Li Mu's hand and said, "Husband, is it really so serious?" I saw it in the palace, Your Majesty has many concubines, will he do it to you for a woman? ”

Li Mu smiled and said, "Lady, Your Majesty has many concubines. But the gull is different for His Majesty. As much as your place in my heart, there is no substitute. ”

"But, the Queen......"

"It's different, it's different." Li Mu sighed and said, "Although the queen is virtuous, she also has a deep relationship with Your Majesty. But His Majesty and the gull knew each other before, and they were unable to be together. To His Majesty, the gull is the woman he loves but can't love. He has put all the beautiful imagination in his heart on the gull, and even if the gull is not as good as he thought, he also thinks that the gull is perfect. ”

"You've read so many books, have you ever read Luo Shen Fu?"

Bai Qiaoqiao nodded, and Li Mu continued: "This Luo Shen Fu was written by Cao Zhi for his sister-in-law Zhen Mi. Zhen Mi was captured that year, because of her beauty, Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, father and son, all liked her. Cao Pi took the lead and captured the hearts of beauties. Cao Cao did not want to leave behind the notoriety of fighting with his son, so he withdrew. As for Cao Zhi, he dared to love but didn't dare to speak, and he has been silently hiding this thought. ”

In the end of Cao Zhi's life, he didn't say this thought. In the year of Empress Zhen's death, Cao Zhi went to Luoyang to meet Cao Pi. Zhen Housheng's crown prince Cao Rong accompanied him to dinner. Cao Zhi looked at his nephew and thought of Empress Zhen's death, and his heart was sour. When returning to the fiefdom, in the boat overnight, in a trance, I saw Concubine Zhen Lingbo coming from the wind, so I was agitated and wrote a "Feeling Zhen Fu", which was later changed to "Luo Shen Fu" in order to cover up. ”

"Cao Zhi has never gotten Zhen Mi in his life, but he imagines her as a fairy in Luoshui. His Majesty is the same, his affection for the gull has not ceased for a moment from fifteen years ago to the present, but he has not received a single response. In his heart, I'm afraid he has long imagined the gull as a fairy-like figure. And now this fairy has fallen to the dust because of me. Your Majesty compares in his heart, and he will feel that he is compared to me, what a conceited character he is, can he feel comfortable in his heart? ”

"But even so, Your Majesty won't kill you, will you? You and Sister Ou are together because they like each other? Sister Ou married the person of Qinghe Cui back then, and she didn't see how His Majesty was. ”

"One time, another time." Li Mu continued to explain to Bai Qiaoqiao, and said: "Back then, Your Majesty was only at my age, not a prince, nor a general of Tiance, but the king of Qin. Even if he had the heart to stop him, the Taiyuan Wang clan and the Qinghe Cui clan would not take him seriously. In other words, he just wanted to stop it, but he couldn't stop it. Now it's different, he's already an emperor. Within the four seas, it is not the king's land, and the coast of the land is not the king's minister. He has the ability to do this, and even if he doesn't make sense, no one can stop him. More importantly, this person is me. ”

Li Mu sighed and said, "I am Your Majesty's nephew, and he does treat me like a nephew." I had a smooth and smooth journey before, and I would never have been able to do it without His Majesty's protection. I developed feelings for Gull, and for His Majesty, it was not only humiliating, but also a betrayal, and I could understand that he had murderous intentions towards me. ”

Bai Qiaoqiao frowned and said, "But this doesn't mean that Your Majesty has murderous intentions towards you?" Have you spoken to Your Majesty? How do you know what is going on in his heart? ”

"Lady, there are some things that don't need to be said." Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "When I was in Dingxiang, I received news that Your Majesty already knew about me and the gull. Then the news that His Majesty was going to attack me came out of Chang'an City, and it had reached the point where everyone knew about it. When I came back, before I arrived in Chang'an City, His Majesty promoted the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and transferred the appointment and dismissal of the Ministry of Industry through me. What does this mean, can't the lady really tell the difference? ”

"What the husband means is that His Majesty is already in-"

"Yes, Your Majesty is trying to empty me and divide my power." Li Mu sighed and continued: "Yesterday, the King of Hejian County came to visit me and told me that His Majesty wanted him to go to Dingxiang to be the governor of the capital, and to be responsible for future affairs with the Turks and the countries of the Western Regions. This is also my business, one by one, can't you still see Your Majesty's intentions? ”

"Your Majesty has long told me that I am too young to be worthy of an excessively high reward. Why did he treat me so well when I came back this time? Let hundreds of officials go out of the city for ten miles to greet me, and also promote me to the title of knight, and make me a county prince. The county public is not counted, but it is still the first-class 'Luoyang' county public of the county public. What does that mean? Doesn't he just want outsiders to think that he treats me well, and when he really moves me in the future, he will also avoid his reputation as a widow? ”

The more Li Mu spoke, the more sad and angry he became, and said: "The most heart-wrenching plan is at the gate of the city." At that time, the envoys of all countries were there, but at such a coincidental time, the prime minister of Gaochang appeared, and accused me in front of the envoys of all countries - lady, what I did in Gaochang, Hou Junji flew pigeons and passed a book to His Majesty to know. He knows in his heart that what I am doing is for myself or for Datang. He knew it all in his heart, but he didn't distinguish a word for me, wasn't that obvious enough? That person was put in by him, and he did it on purpose! ”

Li Muqiang held back his tears, and his voice was a little choked: "I don't hate him and want to kill me, in my opinion, it is understandable to do anything for the sake of the woman I love." I'd rather he say it directly, Li Mu, just because you robbed my woman, I will kill you. I didn't want to see him use such despicable means, so I killed those Gaochang people at that time, and I told him that the king wanted the minister to die, and the minister had to die. But a soldier can be killed, not humiliated. ”

Li Mu stiffened his neck and said, "He must have understood what I meant, and I don't regret it." I did it, and I deserved to die. He looked at Bai Qiaoqiao and said, "Don't worry, lady, Your Majesty's anger is only on me." He's not a dumb man after all, and I'm sure he won't be angry with you and your children. ”

Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, don't look at the hard work." I was dying, and I was still busy living for his country. With this, he has a little conscience, and he can leave me a queen and let you two live. ”

Bai Qiaoqiao threw herself into Li Mu's arms and cried: "Husband, if you die, what am I still alive for?" If Your Majesty kills you, I, I will kill myself......"

"What a stupid thing!" Li Mu grabbed Bai Qiaoqiao's shoulders and said, "If you die, there will be no point in me doing this." If you want to die, I'm the only one who will die. You, Zhi'en, Gull, God love, none of you can die. You will raise my son and serve my mother in her old age, and you will be my wife, and if I die, you will have to bear these responsibilities. ”

Halfway through speaking, Li Mu suddenly remembered something, looked away, and sighed: "Look at what I said, you are still so young, you should find another wishful Lang Jun......"

"Husband, if you say such things again, I will die in front of you now!" Bai Qiaoqiao interrupted Li Mu's nonsense, and said with a straight face: "What kind of woman do you think of me?" Are you going to me off?! ”

"Oh, just talk about it, don't be angry, it's terrible to have a tire." Seeing that the joke was getting bigger, Li Mu hurriedly reassured him and said, "This is the worst situation I am talking about, hasn't this happened yet?" Your Majesty doesn't necessarily have to kill me, he may also let me go. Maybe Your Majesty has figured it out, what about generosity? It's just that I have to prepare for the worst. ”

Bai Qiaoqiao wiped away the tears that came out of her breath and said, "That's why you don't let Sister Tianai and Sister Ou come back with you?" ”

"This can be said on both sides, Tianai is a plan between me and her father, and it is true that I don't want her to come back with me. I deliberately asked her father to keep her for a month on the grounds that there were many affairs, to see the situation here, and then decide not to let her come. If I'm fine, let her come to reunite, and if I'm fine, it's a little less risky. As for the gulls—"

Li Mu smiled bitterly, hesitated for a moment, he recounted what happened that day to Bai Qiaoqiao, raised his hand and swore: "Lady, I was really drunk, I don't remember what happened at that time." No, now that I think about it, maybe she drugged me, and the woman drugged me when she kidnapped me—"

Bai Qiaoqiao ignored Li Mu's panicked explanation, glanced at him, and said, "So, Sister Ou saw you and Miss Jin Chen - she was angry, so she avoided you?" ”

"She must have misunderstood."

"Not necessarily." Bai Qiaoqiao said with some jealousy: "Husband, it doesn't matter if you are poisoned or drunk." You tell me the truth, do you have any affection for Miss Jin Chen? ”

"I didn't ...... There you have it! ”

"Is there none, or is there any?"

"I," Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Lady, if I say I don't know, will you think I'm lying?" ”

Bai Qiaoqiao looked at Li Mu for a while, shook his head and sighed, and said, "Husband, I have always believed your words. You say you don't know, but I believe it. But I think that if you hadn't encountered such a big crisis this time, you definitely wouldn't have left Miss Jin Chen behind, right? ”

Li Mu thought about it, although Jin Chen had a problem, she really had feelings for herself. Even if he doesn't have much affection for her, but out of his somewhat macho thoughts, after finding out that the two have already had a relationship, he shouldn't drive her away, and he should let her stay by his side.

Li Mu bit his lip and thought for a long time, and said hesitantly; "Our family is not short of this pair of chopsticks-"

"I knew you were going to do that!" Bai Qiaoqiao was not annoyed, how could she not know what was wrong with her husband? To say that Li Mu is an abusive person, Bai Qiaoqiao feels that he has wronged him a little, but to say that he is amorous and does not know how to refuse, it is not wronged at all.

Bai Qiaoqiao sighed and said, "Then what now?" ”

"Oops," Li Mu lay down on the bed and said, "Your Majesty has not expressed his position until now, which means that he is hesitating." In that case, let's wait. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and I will not sit still. ”

"Anyway, no matter what happens, I'm going to be with you." Bai Qiaoqiao grabbed Li Mu's hand and said with some stubbornness. Li Mu looked at her and said with a smile: "You, the most important thing now is to give birth to our son, don't let my Li family be ruined." ”

"Then I'll give birth to the baby and go with you."

Li Mu smiled bitterly, and when he saw Bai Qiaoqiao's iron-hearted look, he said, "Okay, then it's decided, right?" ”

"Hmm!"

Bai Qiaoqiao saw that Li Mu finally agreed, and a smile finally appeared on his face. At this time, Li Zhien's voice came from outside, and she bought candied fruit and hawthorn cake according to Bai Qiaoqiao's instructions.

"Madam, this is the most sour hawthorn cake you can buy on the market in Chang'an, the store said, after eating this, the girl has to become a brat!"

"Nonsense." Li Mu knocked on Li Zhien's head and said, "What's in your stomach is what it is, how can it be changed?" ”

"What did the shopkeeper say......" Li Zhien pouted, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took a piece of hawthorn cake and stuffed it into his mouth. Sure enough, it was as sour as the store said, so sour that her little face was deformed. She swallowed the hawthorn cake and looked at Li Mu with a look of anticipation.

"What are you going to do?"

"Husband......

Bai Qiaoqiao couldn't see the meaning, so he pushed Li Mu with his elbow and said, "You two go next door, I'm sleepy and I'm going to bed early." ”

"Thank you, ma'am!" Li Zhien thanked him, grabbed Li Mu's arm, and was about to pull him up. Li Mu was reluctant to be Bai Qiaoqiao, and said with a shy face: "Lady, why don't we ...... together?"

"I can't," Bai Qiaoqiao glared at Li Mu shyly, and said angrily: "You are not afraid of children's jokes." ”

Li Mu looked dazed: "Where are the children?" Who's laughing? ”

Bai Qiaoqiao pointed to his stomach, Li Mu couldn't cry or laugh, and was pulled out by Li Zhien.
