Chapter 696: Murderous Heart
"What do you mean?"
Li Mu sighed and said what Wang Ou had said without saying goodbye. This is a matter on the surface, and Li Shimin also has some grasp of it. But when Li Mu said it at this time, he seemed to be open in his heart. After Li Shimin heard this, he glanced at Li Mu, and a feeling of schadenfreude suddenly rose in his heart. Let you kid rob me of the love of my heart, what will be the result? People don't want you either, do they?
Li Shimin pretended to be indifferent and said, "Then you didn't look for it?" Li Mu, I really misjudged you, you kid is such a responsible person, you are afraid that I will know that I am making trouble with you, so I am indifferent, no matter if she picks up your fourth wife, I look down on you. β
Li Mu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, what can I do?" The matter of going to Dingxiang has been arranged a long time ago, and it involves the cultivation of potatoes and other affairs, is it not a purely private trip, can you not do it? And the gull is an adult, she is not a child, she will not make a small character, she is gone, there must be a reason for her to go, even if I find her, what can I change? β
Li Mu sighed and made a love gesture: "Ask the world, what is love, and the direct teaching promises life and death - Your Majesty, can you understand my heart?" β
Li Shimin muttered: "Ask what is the love in the world - alas, why can't I love it?" Li Mu, I can understand-" Suddenly Li Shimin was stunned, and opened his mouth to say: "Ahhh Li Mu, who understands you? Am I here to understand you? Do you know what's wrong? β
Li Mu pretended to be stupid and said: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with the minister?" β
"You are my nephew, she is my love, you are betraying me, you are deceiving the king!"
Li Mu chuckled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is your son and nephew, this is true. The gull is your love, and that's true. But the crime of bullying the king, the minister will never dare to take it. It is said that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. There is only one thing that is not among them, and that is love. Your Majesty, you are the Ninth Five-Year Honor, and the minister wants to ask, if you are the emperor, do all the women in the world have to love you? Yes, power, no one can compare with you, but do you care about the love that is used to seize power? Although the gull is away from me, when we love each other, it can be said that you love me, what does this have to do with Your Majesty? Is it because His Majesty likes a woman who is in love with his minister, and the minister wants to dedicate this woman to His Majesty? How can there be such a truth in the world?! β
"Li Mu, you!" Li Shimin was so angry that he glared at the boss, and Gonggong Gao was so frightened that he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak, he wished that he was now a deaf and dumb person, did this Li Mu take crazy medicine? What surprised him even more was Li Shimin's reaction, only to see Li Shimin stunned for a while, suddenly his face turned gloomy, sighed, and said: "Yes, I am the Ninth Five-Year Honor, but I have no right to interfere in emotional matters, if I can do it, I would have be-"
Li Shimin waved his hand, called Gao Gonggong to him, and said, "Go and call someone over and let Li Mu go." Li Mu, the matter of the Western Regions, I have already asked Wei Zheng to find out, you have been wronged, you go home and rest, I still have to think about your arrangements......"
Li Shimin's words were just about to fall, suddenly, a little eunuch hurriedly rushed over, Gao Gonggong looked over and stopped with his eyes, but the little eunuch was not obedient, but accelerated his pace even more, and came to Gao Gonggong's side, Li Shimin also noticed this strange little eunuch, frowned and looked over, the little eunuch saw Li Shimin look over, but looked at Li Mu again, or leaned into Gao Gonggong's ear and muttered a few words.
All kinds of abnormal behaviors made Li Shimin very unhappy, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Gao Gonggong's face change greatly. He glanced at Li Mu and gently took Li Shimin's sleeve to the corner of the cell.
"Your Majesty......" Gao Gonggong lowered his voice and whispered in Li Shimin's ear. He didn't know that Li Mu had a profound internal strength and six senses, although his voice was extremely low, he still heard it.
Li Mu's face also changed instantly.
After Gonggong Gao finished speaking, Li Shimin's eyes when he looked at Li Mu also became subtle.
"Li Mu, some people say that you ......" Li Shimin wanted to speak and stopped, pursed his lips, and said: "You stay for a few more days, I still have some things that need to be clarified." β
Li Mu didn't say anything, he didn't have time to say, Li Shimin finished speaking, and left with Gao Gonggong.
Immediately afterwards, the prison of Dali Temple was taken over by the forbidden army. Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien were also taken to the palace and are still in the palace.
In the air, there is a subtle atmosphere.
β¦β¦
At night, Tai Chi Palace.
There are three people in front of Li Shimin, Gao Gonggong, eldest grandson Wuji, and Yuan Tiangang. Yuan Tiangang was sent to Lizhou some time ago, and when Li Mu went to Dingxiang, he had already returned to Chang'an. Lizhou and his party found nothing. It is a confusing thing to build a posthumous son, and it is a common thing to work uselessly over the years, and it is not possible to talk about conviction or non-conviction. When he returned, the bad guys automatically returned to his hands. Years of establishment and operation cannot be replaced by Gao Gonggong's temporary generation.
The eldest grandson Wuji is one of the few people who knows Yuan Tiangang's identity, which also shows the special status of the eldest grandson Wuji. The so-called first person from the dragon's skill is not only reflected in the status of the emperor, but also the degree of trust that the emperor has in you when something important happens. The eldest grandson Wuji is a person that Li Shimin can trust at any time, because at least when Li Shimin is alive, the eldest grandson queen is the queen's business, and the honor and disgrace of the eldest grandson's family are inseparable from Li Shimin, and the eldest grandson Wuji does not want to build the existence of a posthumous son more than anyone else.
"Look at this secret letter." Li Shimin spread out the secret letter, and the three of them looked over, their faces were very exciting.
Although this letter is not named, the handwriting is familiar to everyone, and this is Wang Qi's handwriting. In this report letter, Wang Ju reported that Wang Ou was a member of the 'Succession Hall', and the reason why she contacted Li Mu was because Li Mu was the son of Jiancheng!
The letter also attached a confession from an uncle who claimed to be Li Mu, the so-called uncle said that when Li Mu's mother took Li Mu back to her parents' home, Li Mu was already a full-term baby, but the following year she claimed that Li Mu was just born. This confession at least illustrates the fact that Li Mu is not Sun's biological son. Although it cannot be proved that he is the son of Jiancheng, combined with Wang Ou's identity, the situation is not ordinary.
First of all, Wang Ou was a widow, and now she is a wealthy businessman. How did a widow manage to do so well in a few years? Nine times out of ten, no one in the world will think that this is the widow's own ability. I couldn't guess the reason before, but now I know, it turns out that Jihedo is helping in the back.
What does Jihetang do? Maybe few people know, but the three people present know the power of the heir hall.
Jihetang was organized by all parties who supported Li Jiancheng after Li Jiancheng's death. Originally designed to find and raise the widowed son of Li Jianmin, it later became a paradise for careerists.
The greatest enemy of the bad man is this heir.
Jihetang will never do meaningless things, and it is logical for Jihetang to invest in Wang Ou, because Li Shimin's intentions for Wang Ou are known to the world. controlled Wang Ou, which may directly affect Li Shimin one day. And if Wang Ou is really a person from the heir hall, her relationship with Li Mu can be understood.
The people of the heir hall are very loyal, if Wang Ou is the person of the heir hall, she must have been 'brainwashed'. This is also the reason why she is so much older than Li Mu and is still with him. And now, there is new news about Li Mu's life experience, which makes this possibility even greater.
All the evidence cannot directly prove that Li Mu is the son of Jiancheng. But that's what makes it even more suspicious. Because, it can't be proved that Li Mu is not the son of Jiancheng!
According to the rules of bad people before, it is better to kill the wrong person than to let it go, although these evidences cannot prove that Li Mu is the son of Jiancheng, but it is enough to cut first and then play. But this person is Li Mu, and things are different. Li Mu's life is not something that Yuan Tiangang can decide.
"What do you think?"
Li Shimin frowned and looked at the three people in front of him. Gao Gonggong pursed his lips and did not make a sound. Among the three, he thinks he is a minion, although he has a little relationship with bad people, but the person who is really at the helm is Yuan Tiangang, and he has little to do with him. Yuan Tiangang didn't say anything, he had just returned to Chang'an, and he didn't know much about the situation. All eyes were focused on the eldest grandson Wuji.
The eldest grandson Wuji is like an old monk who has settled down, and there is no change at all.
"Why didn't anyone answer you?"
"Your Majesty." Gao Gonggong finally spoke up and said, "The old slave thinks that this matter is made out of nothing, and His Majesty should do it. β
"But I saw it!" Li Shimin was angry and said, "What's the matter? The woman I love has become a step-heir! The nephew I value the most has becomeβheh, I've become my nephew, well, that's good! β
Gao Gonggong said again: "Your Majesty, the current evidence cannot prove anything. β
"If you can't prove that it is, who can prove that it isn't?" The eldest grandson Wuji said leisurely: "How good Li Mu is, if he really is-have you ever thought about the consequences?" β
When Li Shimin heard this, his hands trembled, and the words of the eldest grandson Wuji hit what he thought in his heart.
Can't prove yes, but who can prove not? Li Mu's outstanding people have seen that Li Mu has been in Chang'an City for more than a year, and he has no disadvantage in doing anything. His ability is too strong! Li Shimin himself felt that if he didn't let the prince befriend Li Mu first, when he returned to heaven, he might not be able to suppress Li Mu. If he is really a posthumous son, who in the world can hold him down?
When the time comes, most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will also think that it is fortunate that Datang has such an heir!
Everything that Xuanwumen won went around and returned it, Li Shimin couldn't allow such a thing to happen!
"Yuan Tiangang!" Li Shimin called the shots.
"The minister is here."
"Tell the bad people in the world to find Mrs. Peony as soon as possible. In addition, go to Wang Jue and ask him where his confession came from, and where this uncle of Li Mu is-" He raised his head, his eyes were a little cold, and said: "Find an opportunity to arrange for this person to meet with Li Mu's mother to find out whether Li Mu is the Sun family's biological son!" Yes or no, report to me immediately. β
"No."
Yuan Tiangang took the order and left, Li Shimin glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji, waved his hand, and motioned to Gonggong Gao to retreat first. After Gonggong Gao retired, Li Shimin asked the eldest grandson Wuji: "Auxiliary, how about me?" β
"Your Majesty, when something like this happens, the minister doesn't know what to do. Li Mu is a talented person in the Tang Dynasty, and His Majesty has a lot of things that he needs to do. But-" He didn't say it explicitly, according to the meaning of his words, Li Shimin already understood.
The eldest grandson Wuji paused for a moment, and then said: "Now unless it is proved that Wang Ou is not the person of the heir hall, or that the uncle's confession is wrong, even if there is no evidence, the minister also suggests that at least Li Mu should not be released." β
"Captivity?" Li Shimin imagined it for a while, and he thought it was a good way. But after thinking about it again, there was no empirical evidence, so he imprisoned Li Mu, with his character, how could he agree? You can't put it yet! If it is verified, there is no need to be like this, no matter how good Li Mu is, as long as he is Li Jiancheng's son, he will definitely die. Li Shimin must make such a decision!
The mind is a thousand turns, and it is a mess. Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Auxiliary, don't mention today's matter to anyone." β
"I understand."
"Go ahead."
The eldest grandson Wuji turned around and left, Li Shimin closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, but he still couldn't make a decision.
β¦β¦
Luoyang.
After Wang Ou returned from the Western Regions, she refused all contacts with the outside world and raised her baby alone in her small courtyard. I only talk to Fat Da every day, and the rest of the time, I read books and play with flowers and plants. I didn't hear anything outside the window, and I didn't want to know anything about Li Mu's news.
The scene she saw that night really stung her.
The hateful enemy is too hurtful, and he is merciful everywhere!
"Fat Da, did you say?"
Fat smirked, as if he didn't understand. Wang Ou handed it the bamboo shoot, gently stroked the slightly bulging lower abdomen, and muttered: "Child, if you are a man, don't learn from your father when you grow up, if you are a girl, don't look for such a caring guy in the future-"
Outside the fence.
Sister Lu looked at Wang Ou's appearance, her face was gentle and resentful. She remembered the sweet words of that man when she was pregnant. I remembered again that irresponsible man is also a first-class person in the world. There are countless confidants in him. Now the sister of the Wang family has also met such a person. Something had to be done, or she would be as miserable as herself.
Man, she couldn't help grab it. But the child, she can help stay.
Wei Fu fell from the tree and was about to walk into the yard when suddenly a hand reached out from behind him and stuck the pulse of his wrist joint. This is where his exercise valve is, and if the valve is broken, his light skill will be considered useless.
Wei Fu didn't dare to resist, and with the strength of the person behind him, he came to the side of 'Sister Lu', Sister Lu didn't look at him, and indifferently ordered: "In the future, the news about Li Mu is not allowed to be passed on even a word, I will only say it once." β
Wei Fu Khan fell like rain and knelt on the ground: "Obey the orders of the hall master!" β
