Li Mu was already very embarrassed, and when he heard this, he just slapped Li Zhien's ass and said, "Don't think nonsense, Nazha is my younger brother and sister, what can be the problem." ”

"Master, I'm not talking nonsense." Li Zhien rubbed Li Mu's body, made him a little more energetic, and said: "I remember that Uncle Siwen mentioned during the banquet yesterday that Nazha is two months pregnant, and Mrs. is sad because of this, right?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

"She's lying!" Li Zhien said firmly.

Li Mu couldn't cry and laughed, and said, "How can you lie when you're pregnant?" ”

"Master, do you know Musk?" Li Zhien said: "After Uncle Siwen left today, Mrs. was worried that Nazha would be sad, so she asked me to call her over for dinner together, today we sat close to each other, I smelled the musk fragrance on her, I took a closer look, the fragrance came from the sachet on her body." Musk is used for contraception, and if she is really pregnant, she will definitely be born prematurely with the musk sachet on her. The Western Regions are rich in musk, and it is impossible for her to be unaware of the Turkic people. So I concluded that she wasn't pregnant at all, she didn't want to get pregnant, and her musk sachet was used for contraception! ”

"You didn't smell wrong? Is it really musk? ”

"Hmm!" Li Zhien nodded heavily and said, "When I was a child, my mother taught me pharmacology, and it was definitely musk. Master, musk is a very valuable spice that ordinary people can't touch at all, so this Nazha lied again, she definitely can't be the daughter of a herdsman. ”

"Alas......" Li Mu Chang sighed, although Li Zhien has never said where she was born in Goguryeo, but she does understand a lot of things, and her vision is also very broad. And she has no reason to hurt Nazha, Li Mu trusts her judgment.

Although Li Mu didn't know musk, he had chased "The Legend of Zhen Huan" in his previous life and knew that musk could cause miscarriage. This Nazha carried a musk sachet with her, and it was clear that she didn't want to get pregnant, so what was her purpose in approaching Li Siwen? Why did you come to Chang'an with him? What the hell is she trying to do?

"Who have you told about this? Does Qiaoqiao know? ”

Li Zhien shook his head and said, "I haven't told my wife yet." ”

Li Mu glanced at the sleeping Bai Qiaoqiao, and said to Li Zhien: "Then don't say it, I'll talk to Siwen tomorrow, and send her to the Ministry of Industry to find an empty yard for her to live in." Don't be quiet yet, lest I startle the snake, but I want to see what she wants to do. ”

"Hmm!" Li Zhien smiled, put his arms around Li Mu's neck, kissed him, and squeezed him into his arms, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, Li Mu asked the maid to call Nazha over for breakfast together, and he paid special attention to it, and he did smell a vague fragrance. Li Mu glanced at Li Zhien, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said: "Today I am going to the court, if I wait for Siwen to come, let him wait for me at home, I will go to visit my father-in-law in the afternoon, and I will just send the wine brewed yesterday." ”

Bai Qiaoqiao responded, and Li Muyu caught a glimpse of Nazha's eyes shaking slightly when she heard him mention the word 'father-in-law'. This made Li Mu feel that she should be able to understand Chinese, but why did she keep pretending not to understand?

Li Mu couldn't rest assured, so he let Li Chongyi stay at home, and only took two entourages out.

Today's court meeting is an 'enlarged meeting'. Because the matter of recovering the minerals was too big, it was obviously not enough to only consult with the important ministers, so Li Shimin made a decree and summoned all the officials above the three provinces, six ministries and five grades to hold a court discussion in the Liangyi Palace, and anyone could express their ideas.

Since Li Mu was busy with Li Yuan's affairs, he didn't need to participate. But he still decided to join in the fun, in addition to wanting to hear the content of today's court discussion, he also wanted to find a way to sell his 'patent'.

……

Liangyi Palace.

Two hours have passed since the court discussion, and there is no intention of ending.

Li Mu stood at the end of the purple-robed team, his feet were already a little numb. I knew that the court would take so long, and he said that he would not come to anything. Directly make an announcement in Datang Daily, even if the effect is worse, it will save you this crime.

My stomach is rumbling with hunger, no, I can't stay up any longer, it's time to stand up and put an end to this boring discussion.

Li Mu stared at the person who was talking in front of him, and when he finished speaking and returned to the gap in the queue, Li Mu stepped out before the next person who was going to speak took a step, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has a play!" ”

This voice was louder than the voice of the person who had just spoken, which startled Li Shimin, only then did he find that Li Mu was also here, glared at him, and said, "Wait a while, the matter of mining tax has not been discussed yet......

"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to express some views on the matter of mining taxes."

"Oh?" Li Shimin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, he knew Li Mu's temperament, he wouldn't jump out and speak without confidence, could he have any clever plan?

"Since Qing has something to say, let's say it, the hundred officials have been discussing it for so long and have not come up with anything."

Li Shimin's tone was a little depressed, and he couldn't help but be depressed. The day before yesterday, he discussed with the prime ministers at this time, and the prime ministers all said that it was okay and that it was long overdue. Yesterday, he summoned the six Shangshu, and everyone agreed. Today, the enlarged meeting, all the officials above the fifth grade participated, Li Shimin thought it was just a formality, after all, the prime minister and the six Shangshu all agreed, what else can there be in the turmoil? Unexpectedly, these small shrimps have become the main force of opposition, especially when it comes to money. This one says that the wealth is hidden from the people, and the other says that it competes with the people for profit...... made Li Shimin annoyed.

If you hadn't always wanted to be a Ming Jun in your heart, Li Shimin really wanted to yell at you, didn't you just want to rob the court of money!

But he couldn't help it, he couldn't say it. Look at the prime minister and the six Shangshu who all agreed two days ago, all of them are like clay statues, and they have been discussing for two hours, and no one has released a fart.

"Don't you just want to rob the court of money!"

Like a thunderclap, it exploded in Li Shimin's ears, and in a trance, Li Shimin thought that he couldn't help but blurt it out. He followed the voice and looked over, only to see Li Mu standing in the center of the main hall, pointing at the few officials who had just spoken, and reprimanding with a righteous face.

"Aiqing must not be rude!"

Li Shimin's heart was refreshed, but he had to shout, Li Mu stood up and said such words, which was equivalent to putting himself on the opposite side of the gate valve family behind the hundred officials and the hundred officials, Li Shimin knew that Li Mu could speak well, but he was also worried that he would be invincible with two fists.

Sure enough, the two officials who had just spoken stood up, raised the wat board in their hands, and said in a loud voice: "Lu Zhaolin, the servant of the Ministry of Subjects, please ask Your Majesty to be the master of the ministers." ”

"Yushi Zhao Yuanlang, please call the shots of Your Majesty."

These two people have obviously practiced, and their eyes are instantly red, as if they have been wronged, and they look like I will cry if you don't call the shots for me.

Li Shimin suddenly felt a headache, and there were rules in the court. Li Mu suddenly burst out: "Don't you just want to rob the court of money!" Although this is the reason, the words cannot be said so directly. There are some things that you have to do behind your back, and you can't save face when you put them on the table and say them. One of these two people is the imperial historian, and the other is the servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, how can they be easily slandered?

Li Shimin glared at Li Mu, and said in his heart, this kid really doesn't stop, he won't cause trouble for me for three days, and he will be on the fourth day. In the current situation, even if Li Shimin wants to help, he can't help, looking at the eyes of the hundred officials, Li Shimin sighed and said, "Zhuluhou, don't you admit your mistake?" ”

Li Mu raised his chin, and said righteously: "Your Majesty, the minister just said the words that were held in his heart, and I don't know what mistakes he made." ”

"Isn't it wrong for you to slander the minister?"

"Your Majesty, what the minister said is the truth!"

Yu Shi Zhao Yuanlang couldn't help it, some time ago, Yu Shi Tai suffered a loss under Li Mu's hands, and even picked one Yu Shi Zhong Cheng two Yu Shi, the dismissal of the official, the exile of the exile, and he published the experience in the Datang Daily, so that everyone in the world knew.

Yu Shitai was ashamed, Zhao Yuanlang was the same, just now he just quoted the scriptures and said that the wealth is hidden from the people, Li Mu said that he wanted to rob the court of money, this pot he did not dare to accept, must be refuted, new hatred and old hatred together, the blood rushed to the head, and said angrily: "Zhulu Hou, you make it clear, what is the money of the court?" As an imperial historian, it is my duty to advise, if I look at the fault of the king and do not say it, wouldn't it be like a minister and a minister? Speaking of this, Zhao Yuanlang showed a sarcastic look and said: "I heard that the Marquis of Zhulu once compared himself to cattle and horses, and I am afraid that I can't understand my loyalty as an imperial historian." ”

As soon as Zhao Yuanlang said this, not only Li Mu's face sank, but even Li Shimin's face was ugly. Li Mu teased Wang Pu at the racecourse that day, and he once said such things. But what he said was that for the people's children and for His Majesty's horses, the implication was that Li Shimin was Bole. But now Zhao Yuanlang's meaning is clearly derogatory, saying that Li Mu is a cow and a horse, and comparing it to a minister and a minister, the implication is that Li Mu can have his current status, and he is fortunate to be flattered.

Imagine what kind of monarch will have ministers and ministers around him? Don't you mean that Li Shimin is a faint king!

Li Mu glanced at Zhao Yuanlang with slanted eyes, and said, "Zhao Yushi? ”

"Humph!" Zhao Yuanlang was very faceless and snorted coldly.

"Ha, haha!"

The familiar sneer sounded again, and Baiguan's heart moved, here, here, he's coming!

Li Mu took a step forward towards Zhao Yuanlang, took a deep breath, pointed at the tip of his nose, and shouted: "You famous and straightforward person!" I didn't want to worry about you, but you regard Ben Hou as a cow and a horse, and your majesty as a faint king, Ben Hou has to say a few words! ”

"You ......"

"Shut up!" Li Mu interrupted him and said, "Benhou hasn't finished speaking, it's not your turn to speak!" If I am not mistaken, you just said that the imperial court took back the mines, but it was a move to compete with the people for profit. Zhao Yushi, let me ask you, which mine in the world is mined by the people? You traitorous villain, the dog of the gate valve, the lord of the king, but you add to the worries of the king, and dare to bark in front of Your Majesty, I have never seen such a brazen person! ”
