Half an hour later.

Wang Jue pondered for a while and said, "So, Li Mu was assassinated, did you see it with your own eyes?" ”

"Yes," Wang Ou nodded, and said, "And I also found out that the person in charge of this matter behind the scenes, called 'Old Seven', has some reputation in the east and west cities, and it is very likely that he is the secret son of the Boling Cui clan." ”

Wang Jue didn't seem to doubt Wang Ou's words at all, and said angrily: "Zhuzi'an dares to deceive me, and I still promise to inquire about the news for him, give him ideas, and make me angry!" ”

Wang Ou smiled slightly and said, "Uncle doesn't have to be so angry, I don't think Cui Wensheng knows the details before he knows it." ”

"What does that mean?"

Wang Ou took out a golden hairpin from the cuff of Sikou and handed it to Wang Qi, and said, "This is the property found from the murderer, such a thing must belong to a woman." Therefore, I guess that it should be the daughter of the Cui family who wants to avenge her son, but the family does not allow it, so she took her property and found this seventh child to buy murder. No matter how stupid Cui Wensheng is, he doesn't dare to assassinate the Marquis of Founding County, he doesn't have the courage. Even if it was the owner of Cui, he had never dared to take such a big risk. After all, Li Mu is now a celebrity in front of His Majesty, and they will not be stupid enough to give His Majesty a chance to find fault. ”

Wang Qi thought for a while, nodded and said, "What Ou'er said is reasonable, so in your opinion, how should this matter be concluded." ”

"When I found out about Lao Qi, I immediately sent someone to arrest him. But this old seven seems to have noticed that he has escaped from Chang'an City. He can't catch it now, but he definitely won't dare to show it easily. So this matter, the best way to end it, is to leave it alone. ”

"But I have promised Cui Wensheng to ...... for him"

Wang Ou smiled politely: "Uncle, a gentleman treats him sincerely, do you think Cui Wensheng is worthy of a gentleman?" ”

Wang Jue was stunned for a moment and said, "Uncle knows what to do." Suddenly, he thought of Li Mu again, and said, "Ou'er, what do you think of Li Mu?" ”

"The contact is still shallow, and I can't see anything yet. Everything you can learn about now is what you have heard. For example, poetry, ploughing...... And today's Datang Daily, obviously he has invented a method of rapid rubbing, this person was born in a border city outside the Saiwai, but he has such a great talent, which is really surprising. I've sent someone to investigate, and within a few days, there's a reply. If he's really a genius......"

Wang Qi said: "Such a talent, if it is used by His Majesty, it is a big disadvantage for the five surnames and seven hopes!" ”

Wang Ou asked, "What does Uncle mean, except for it?" ”

"Won't you get rid of it?"

Wang Ou shook his head and said, "Uncle, although Li Mu is used by His Majesty, he also hates the Gate Valve Family because of the Boling Cui Clan. But this does not mean that he is already our opponent, the Boling Cui clan does not represent the five surnames and seven hopes, and Li Mu's attitude towards the gate valve family is only because of the Boling Cui family, and the other six hopes have not offended him. Yesterday, my brother-in-law told him about my life experience, and I didn't see his attitude unusual. It shows that this person loves and hates clearly, and his bad feelings towards the gate valve family all come from the Boling Cui family. If my Taiyuan Wang wanted to be friendly with him, he would not necessarily refuse. ”

After a pause, Wang Ou said, "If he invents a new type of plough, it can really be as he said." Wouldn't it be a pity to kill such a talent? Don't forget, uncle, Your Majesty is also going to push this new type of plough into the world, and what about after the implementation of the world? Who has the most hands in the land of this world? Rather than fighting with Your Majesty for the favor of the people, it is more practical to pay taxes for the land, isn't it? ”

Wang Qi was silent for a long time, thinking in his heart. What Wang Ou said, in fact, he also thought of it. But not as deep as Wang Ou thought, for thousands of years, the door valve family and the imperial power of the fighting method, the most fundamental thing is actually the word popularity. So when he encountered something, the first thing Wang Jue thought of was to compete with the imperial power for popularity. But what Wang Ou said is reasonable. Sometimes it's useful, sometimes it's useless. No matter how big the popularity is, it can't compare to a piece of land.

In today's Tang Dynasty, a large amount of arable land is in the hands of the gate valve family, even if it is the emperor, he can't change this situation. If the emperor wants to forcibly change, the gate valve family will definitely not sit still, and then the world will be in chaos, Li Shimin is a bright monarch, and it is impossible to take risks. In this way, even if some popular popularity is transferred, after the implementation of the new plough, the greatest benefit is still the door valve family.

"What do you mean by Ou'er, do you want me to be good friends with him?"

"Uncle doesn't have to be like this, you are the prime minister, Li Mu is just a waiter in the Ministry of Works, and he is not worthy of your condescension. Don't grudge with it, stay neutral, be right and not right in case of trouble, just leave and right. On that day, the uncle's words were afraid that His Majesty had been vigilant, but the uncle's approach to this matter was also in line with His Majesty's expectations. No matter how His Majesty arranges, Uncle can't fight anymore. In this way, His Majesty will feel that the uncle has scruples, and he is still under his control, and he will be less vigilant against the uncle, and in time, he will be able to heal the mustard. ”

Wang Jue nodded and said, "Uncle knows it in his heart." ”

Wang Ou had finished what he wanted to say, so he got up and said, "In this case, Uncle will be busy, and Ou'er will leave." ”

Wang Jue hurriedly said: "It's not easy to meet, how can you leave in a hurry, it's good to stay in the house for a few days." ”

"No, Ou'er promised her brother-in-law yesterday that she was going to visit her sister. If he hadn't seen the Datang Daily, Ou'er wouldn't have come. Now that the uncle knows it, Ou'er is relieved. ”

Wang Jue sighed: "Ou'er, are you still angry with your uncle?" ”

Wang Ou shook his head and said, "What the uncle does is what the uncle should do." As the daughter of the Wang family, Ou'er also has the obligations that Ou'er should fulfill. Fortunately, it has passed, Ou'er has not only fulfilled the obligations of the Wang family's daughter, but also paid off the debt to the Cui family, and now she is relaxed, and she has long been angry. ”

Wang Jue didn't know what to say, so he pursed his lips and couldn't speak. Wang Ou saluted and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Wang Jue couldn't help but speak, Wang Ou stopped, Wang Jue said: "You haven't been back to your parents' house for three years, your father and your mother are all talking about you, and the elders of the clan are also ......."

"Uncle, the gull knows it."

Leaving this sentence, Wang Ou quickened his pace. Wang Jue wanted to say anything, but he didn't have the courage to stop her again.

Out of the Yongning County Mansion, Wang Ou got into the carriage waiting at the door. Under the veil, there are already ripples of tears. It's not that she doesn't know that her parents miss her, it's just that her parents deceived her back then, so she never let go. So over the years, although she has secretly helped her mother's family, she rarely meets her family. This time I came to see Wang Qi, which is an extremely rare situation.

Years of tempering have allowed Wang Ou to practice the ability to quickly organize her emotions, and in a few breaths, she has returned to her former coldness.

"Go to the Mansion of the Prince."
