Li Shimin frowned and said, "The queen thinks it's inappropriate? ”

Empress Eldest Sun shook her head and said, "The concubine has no such intention, she just wants to remind Your Majesty." As a monarch, it is not advisable to favor courtiers. And there is still a hidden worry about this matter, Your Majesty, think about it, why did Lu Zhilin say that Li Mu was molesting the people's daughters, not others, but Wei Zheng? ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, reacted, and said, "What the queen means is that this matter is very likely to be instructed by Wei Zheng, or even discussed by them...... Can't you, Wei Zheng can do such a thing? ”

Although Li Shimin has always hated Wei Zheng very much, he wanted to kill him several times before he was relieved. But the two have been together for many years, and Wei Zheng is a person, he still thinks he understands. Wei Zheng, on the whole, has no problem with his character. He should not be able to do anything about false accusations and frame-ups.

Empress Changsun said: "Your Majesty, above the court, open guns and hidden arrows are invincible. Shandong Shi clan and Li Mu, because of the previous incident, have long been on the same page. Although on the surface, Li Mu resigned and Wei Zheng was promoted. But in fact, the Shandong scholars suffered a big loss. On the other hand, Li Mu, although he lost the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Works, it did not have any impact, and the Ministry of Industry still looked at him as the leader. The competition in this court has always been unscrupulous. Whether Wei Zheng can do such a thing is difficult to say at the moment. Therefore, the concubine felt that His Majesty might as well wait and see what happened. If it is really Wei Zheng's instructions, he must have a back hand, and when his hole cards are exhausted, His Majesty will deal with it, wouldn't it be better? ”

After a pause, Empress Eldest Sun said again: "Your Majesty, don't forget, Li Mu can speak well, and if you force him to deduct the crime, he will not be restrained." ”

"But ......" Li Shimin thought of Li Mu's illness, and felt a little unbearable, and said: "Li Mu has just suffered such a big blow, and it is really difficult for him to stand up and reason with these little people." ”

"Your Majesty, this is the righteousness of the monarch and the minister!"

Li Shimin was silent for a long time, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's see, what else can these young people say tomorrow!" ”

After speaking, Li Shimin put the fold aside and picked up the next one.

Zheng Guo Gong's Mansion.

The maid Pearl put medicine on Wei Yingluo's knee, helped her wrap it in a cloth, cleaned it up, and blew out the oil lamp.

There is no money in the house, and lighting the lamp is a luxury, and if you can use it less, you can use it less. is also because there is no money in the house, and there is no room for the next person. Pearl has always slept in the same room with Wei Yingluo, a door panel, with two stools, and she can fall to the ground when she turns over.

Usually, Wei Yingluo feels sorry for the pearl, so she also sleeps in bed. But today Wei Yingluo was injured, and Pearl was afraid that she would not be honest when she slept and ran into her, so she slept on the door panel again.

I didn't sleep on the door panel for many days, and Pearl was a little uncomfortable and couldn't sleep. She leaned sideways and looked at Wei Yingluo on the bed through the night, she knew that the young lady was not asleep, her knees were bruised like that, how could she fall asleep. But she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only accompany her silently.

"Pearls." Wei Yingluo suddenly spoke.

"I'm here, what's wrong with Miss?"

"I want to ...... When my injuries are a little better, let's escape. ”

"Huh?" Pearl was surprised, hurriedly got up, and said, "Miss, are you feverish?" We're at home, where are we going to run? ”

"I don't have a fever and I'm not confused. I just wanted to get out of the house. ”

Pearl couldn't understand it, and said, "Miss, this is home, why do we want to escape?" ”

"Pearl, you won't understand." Wei Yingluo sighed, her tone was full of disappointment and loss: "When I was a child, I admired my father. In my eyes, my father is upright, upright and benevolent, and I feel that there is no better official in this world than my father. However, this time my father disappointed me. How did he become like this, indiscriminately, and wronged people. My mother is also unreasonable, can I stay in such a home? ”

Pearl really didn't understand, she couldn't understand Wei Yingluo's meaning at all. Why can't this family stay? Isn't it just being punished? She is a subordinate, and she has been used to this kind of thing since she was a child. She didn't even think about why she was punished, the master said that there was a mistake, it was a mistake, wouldn't it be good to admit the mistake? She didn't understand why Wei Yingluo would rather kneel until she fainted than admit her mistake.

While Pearl was trying to understand, Wei Yingluo asked again, "Pearl, will you come with me?" ”

"Huh?" Pearl came back to her senses and hesitated, "Miss, can we go?" ”

Wei Yingluo seemed to have thought about it, and said, "I must go, if you don't come with me, then it's up to you, just don't say it." ”

"Miss......" Pearl's voice was a little crying, although she couldn't understand Wei Yingluo's thoughts, but she was not stupid, she was the only maid in this house, and she was serving Miss. If the young lady loses it, she will definitely be punished. And if there is no Miss, there will be no need for her to exist as a maid who serves Miss. Even if they are not punished, they will be kicked out.

She didn't have a father and mother, she was sold by her uncle to Zheng Guogong's mansion as a maid. My uncle got the money, and he didn't know where to go for a long time. Even if she can find it, it is estimated that her uncle will not care about her.

Heaven and earth are so big, where can they go?

There's nowhere to go!

Pearl cried and said, "Miss, aren't you forcing me, if you leave, I won't be able to stay in the mansion anymore, I can only follow you......"

"Good Pearl, I knew you would be with me!"

"Miss, let's put it aside first, even if we escape, where can we go? I'll only do rough work, miss...... Nothing, if we leave home, will we starve to death? ”

When Wei Yingluo heard this, her little face turned red, and she argued: "I don't know anything, I have read books, I can write, I, I ......"

'I've been 'me' for a long time, and Wei Yingluo hasn't said anything that a person who 'has read and can write' can do.

The atmosphere was very awkward at one point.

"There it is!" Wei Yingluo finally remembered one, her eyes lit up, and she said, "I can be a newspaper reader!" ”

"Miss, you are so good at being a newspaper reader, there is a territory, but you can't read the newspaper casually. Besides, let's walk down the street, and which newspaper reader you see is a woman, and it's all a man. ”

Wei Yingluo said innocently: "Can I disguise myself as a man?" You've seen me wear men's clothes, haven't you? ”

"Miss!" Pearl was really going to be stupidly cried by Wei Yingluo, and said, "My miss, are you really a man when you wear men's clothes?" You are so small, and you look so white, you can recognize you as a daughter with long eyes. If you really want to read the newspaper, I don't know if you can be a newspaper reader, but it is certain that it will attract disciples. ”

Hearing the words 'Deng's disciple', Wei Yingluo's mind came up with the scene she saw on the day of the opening of heaven and earth for no reason, Li Mu pressed Wang Ou tightly against the wall and kissed her on the mouth......

This scene had a great impact on Wei Yingluo, and she dreamed of it several times. Now that I think about it again, I still have my temples flying and can't help but scold: "Dengzi! ”

"Huh?"

"I didn't say you."

"Oh." Pearl answered, suddenly stunned, her eyes lit up, and said, "Miss, you said that I remembered the disciple, if we really run away from home, we can go to Hou Ye for help." ”

"Who's going to ask him for help!" Wei Yingluo seemed to have been stepped on by the tail, and she 'exploded' and said, "I'm talking about my own business, what does it have to do with him." Even if I starved to death, I wouldn't ask him for help. I don't believe it, I Wei Yingluo can't live if I leave home! ”

Zhulu Hou Mansion.

"Ahh......h Ahh ”

Li Mu sneezed.

It's not a cold, it's smoked.

Yesterday, he fooled his wife and concubine, Li Mu's conscience was uneasy, in order to appease his conscience, he spent the whole day in the studio tinkering with it.

He's busy with something he agreed to a month ago.

Bai Qiaoqiao said that he was bored at home, so he promised to set up a shop and let her run it to relieve her boredom.

Li Mu's original intention was to get a shop that sold perfumes. In order to make perfume, he even asked Ergou to buy dried flowers. But then a lot of things happened, and it was delayed.

Taking time out today, Li Mu finally got the perfume done. Not only did he get perfume, but he also made soap.

Perfume is the formula in the system, and in "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", there is a special event for Valentine's Day, and perfume is one of the event quest items. And soap, which is not available in the game, but it is also difficult to resist the little prince of chemistry. Soap is actually very simple to make, alkali reacts with animal fats to produce high-grade fatty acid sodium. This high-grade fatty acid sodium is soap. Alkali can be prepared from plant ash or rock salt companions, and animal fat is some, and soap comes out when you do it. The difficulty lies in how to remove the smell of animal fat soap, this problem, Li Mu studied for a whole day, and finally thanks to the floral essential oil extracted from perfume, after a certain proportion of blending, he finally made a soap with no smell and fragrance.

"Lady!!"

Li Mu took the small glass bottle he specially made for perfume, filled a bottle of jasmine perfume, a piece of mint-scented soap, and ran back to the backyard in a hurry. Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien were boiling medicine for Li Mu, and when they saw him running in like a gust of wind, they hurriedly pulled him and said, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" What happened? ”

"Look, what is this!"

Li Mu took Bai Qiaoqiao's hand, put the perfume and soap into her hand, and said, "Didn't I promise to open a shop for you and relieve your boredom when you have nothing to do?" Didn't you say at the time, worried about losing money? This is my latest invention, and with these two things, it's hard to lose money! ”

"What is this?" Bai Qiaoqiao looked at the perfume bottle and soap in his hand, and didn't recognize it at all. It's Li Zhien, who can see a little bit of the doorway, her nose is smart, Li Mu and Wang Ou have hugged, she can smell it. Of course, she could smell such a heavy floral fragrance, and pointed to the soap and said, "This is the aroma of mint flowers, master, is this the incense you invented?" It's amazing! ”
