"After introducing the owner of this room, I'll introduce myself again."

Seeing that Li Mu had led the topic to himself, everyone stopped talking and looked at him.

"My name is Li Mu, some people recognize me, some people don't recognize me, and some people recognize me but deliberately pretend not to recognize me...... But that's okay, now I'm going to reintroduce myself and let you get to know each other again. ”

"I, because I found the jade seal of the country, I have to be expelled from Luhou. His Majesty had a discerning eye for talent, and appointed me as the Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, and later because of his meritorious invention, he was promoted to the Ministry of Works. Because of the jealousy of Wei Zheng and other Shandong scholars, and the endless death and impeachment, I was so disturbed that I resigned from the official. Now there is a lord without a position, and he is trusted by His Majesty to take charge of the internal treasury, which is called the internal decree. Due to the difficulties at home, I work here and am responsible for operation and management, so everyone can also call me Manager Li. ”

Everyone knew about the matter between Li Mu and Wei Zheng, and the matter of his resignation had already spread all over the government and the opposition, so they were not surprised, but they didn't expect Li Mu to talk about it on such an occasion, and they couldn't help but talk about it.

Wei Yingluo is even more angry, in her heart, the model of being a minister is her father Wei Zheng, how can Li Mu be worthy of her father's jealousy?

Li Mu seemed to know what she was thinking, and actually smiled at her, Wei Yingluo saw it, and suddenly thought of the candied fruit in her sleeve, and somehow felt a little weak and staggered her gaze.

"There is no way to serve the country! Depression in the heart! Li Mu sighed, as if that was the case. When Li Chengqian saw it, he asked Li Shimin, "Father, is it really as he said?" ”

"It's complicated." Li Shimin did not forget to take the opportunity to educate his son, and said: "Chengqian, you are the prince, remember not to listen to and believe partially." ”

"Oh." Li Chengqian answered ignorantly, but listened to Li Yuandao: "Don't listen to your father's words, the emperor's grandfather told you that the most important thing to be an emperor is 'be wanton and wantonly', the world is yours, the country is yours, you can use whoever you like, and don't use it if you don't like it." Your father fell into the pit of 'Ming Jun', and you can't be like him in the future, chilling the hearts of loyal ministers. ”

"Father......" Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "Father, Chengqian is still young, don't ...... it"

"What's wrong? Am I wrong? ”

"Father is right." Empress Eldest Sun hurriedly stopped, glanced at Li Shimin, and said with a smile: "Let's listen to Li Mu." ”

"Humph!" Li Yuan snorted, gave his daughter-in-law face, and stopped talking. Li Shimin didn't dare to speak, Li Chengqian and Li Tai glanced at each other, and honestly accompanied Li Yuan.

“…… Everyone must have heard of the bet I made with Wei Zheng, but if you don't know the details, you can flip through the Datang Daily in the past two days, and I won't say more. Just talking about my bet with Wei Zheng, we bet that if I can enter the Shiji next year, he will worship me as a teacher, if I can't, I will lose to him 1,000 taels of gold! ”

Someone didn't know about the bet and gasped. Li Mu glanced at Wei Yingluo and continued: "This matter is guaranteed by His Majesty and the Six Shangshu, and it cannot be changed. To say a polite word, I am gifted and unforgettable. Qin Tianjian Yuan Tiangang Yuan Daochang calculated for me, he said that I am a person with Su Hui, although I don't understand what Su Hui is, but I heard that it is very powerful. Tianzhong Genius, referred to as genius. ”

"Genius, how can you not pass the Jinshi exam? I'm already going to win this bet. Just now, I also met my apprentice granddaughter, the little girl is very innocent and cute, which makes me very happy! ”

Li Mu praised again and again: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that Wei Zheng would look like that, and it was really impressive to be able to give birth to such a Peugeot daughter." ”

Faced with Li Mu's ridicule, Wei Yingluo couldn't help it, Huo Ran stood up and said, "You haven't won yet, don't take advantage of it, and be quick to speak!" ”

Li Mu immediately said: "See, this is my apprentice granddaughter, just like his father, there is no etiquette, don't blame you." ”

brushed the ground, and everyone's eyes were on Wei Yingluo. When did Wei Yingluo be stared at by so many people, she only felt that her whole body was hot, her face was red as if she had been cooked, and she was dragged by Kong Yingda to sit down, and persuaded in a low voice: "Li Mu, this guy has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, how are you his opponent, don't say a few words, don't be succeeded by him!" ”

Li Mu laughed twice, suddenly smiled, and said, "But today, I want to make a little supplement to this bet." I've already said that, as a man who stands up to the sky, I have to be responsible for what I say. At the beginning, I said the champion, but Wei Zheng looked down on me, the gambling contract was only Jinshi and the first, I thought about it, my heart was very unhappy, today is full of friends, I hereby announce, if I can't get the champion, the bet will be considered my loss! Only the champion can show my ability as a genius! ”

As soon as this remark came out, there was a lot of discussion on the first and second floors. Everyone, including Li Shimin, Li Ji, and even Wang Ou and others, felt that Li Mu was a little arrogant. Champion, how many people have studied hard for ten years, and they can't even think that you have only been studying for a few days, and you dare to say that you have won the top prize in the examination?

But after thinking about it, everyone felt that Li Mu was bad enough, maybe he had already planned to admit defeat. It's just a matter of a thousand taels of gold, and it's not that he can't take it out. Today, there is such a huge limelight, and he took advantage of Wei Zheng's daughter, all of them are in vain, and they are really calculated to the bones.

Just when most of the people thought so, Xiao Chen's father-in-law came to the stage with a tray and came to Li Mu's side, the people on the first floor couldn't see the things on the tray clearly, but the people on the second floor could see very clearly, the tray was a pair of scissors.

Li Mu took the scissors in his hand, untied the plain crown on his head, and cut off his hair with a pair of scissors in full view of everyone.

This time, the audience was shocked.

Li Mu put his hair and scissors on the tray, faced everyone, and said: "The Book of Filial Piety has a saying, the body is skinny, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also." Standing up and doing the way, making a name for yourself in future generations, in order to show your parents, and the end of filial piety. The gambling contract between me and Wei Zheng can be traced back to the source, also because of filial piety. Now I cut my ambition, if I can't be the champion in high school, let Wei Zhengbai fall at my feet, and call me a teacher, I should not grow my hair for a day to remember the shame. If I can't go to high school next year, I lose to Wei Zheng with 1,000 taels of gold, and if I don't pass the next subject, I'll give him another 1,000 taels of gold, and as long as I'm alive, the bet will be valid until the day I go to high school. These words came from the mouth of my Li Mu, and everyone is a witness. ”

Everyone was stunned by Li Mu's actions, and Li Shimin was the same, he didn't expect that Li Mu, who usually laughed and laughed, would be so grudgeful, he thought that the matter had passed, but now it seems that the grudge between him and Wei Zheng cannot be resolved.

The third private room on the west side of the second floor is the location of the Juguo Mansion. Tang Jian, Sun, and Tang Guan are all there. Sun was already in tears, and cried: "Why is this kid so stubborn, there was no wind at all when he just came to ask for peace, how can it be so, this kid...... It's killing me. ”

"Madam, it's not that you don't know his temperament, and you'd rather bend than bend. Don't cry, it's not a bad thing to take the top prize, why are you crying? ”

Tang Guan also wanted to persuade, but he didn't know what to say, his eyes were staring at Li Mu on the stage, and he was secretly envious, this is what the big husband did!

After saying his own business, Li Mu waved his hand to Xiao Chen's father-in-law, and Xiao Chen's father-in-law retreated. Li Mu put on a smiling face and continued: "I'm sorry, it takes up everyone's time. After talking about the owner of this room, and I, the manager of the part-time job, I will talk about our rules here. ”

"Look, on every table, there's a recipe. The price of the food and drinks is recorded in detail, and today's table is all on this recipe. You can enjoy every dish. ”

Everyone opened the recipe to watch, and as soon as they read the first page, they all gasped. This is only the first page, and there are no dishes less than the usual price, which is too expensive!

"As you should see, the price is a bit expensive. But I dare say, it's definitely worth the money. For one thing, many of the food and drinks we have here can't be eaten anywhere else. Second, the chefs who cook these dishes are all comparable to the imperial chefs of the imperial court, in other words, coming here to eat is like enjoying a royal banquet, and it is reasonable to be a little more expensive. ”

"This price is already the cost price. You can see this in the wine. The wines in heaven and earth are all exclusively customized from Bashang Distillery. You can drink sake that you can't buy at the Bashang Brewery. In particular, the 'champion red' is exclusive to heaven and earth, the price is ten times an altar, today to entertain you, there will be an altar at each table, you can also taste, ten dollars a jar of wine, and you have drunk before, what is the difference. ”

"It's too expensive! Who can afford to eat! Suddenly, someone muttered, because he was very close to Li Mu, and his words were also transmitted through amplification. Immediately resonated, Li Mu glanced at this person, happy, he is still an old acquaintance, Wang Pu, he is a professor of Guozijian, and he happened to be sitting at a table with Kong Yingda and others, he was in Wang Jue's private room before, and he had just gone downstairs, so Li Mu saw him.

Li Mu said with a smile: "Wang Gongzi's words are to the point, who can afford such expensive wine and food?" ”

"This is going to talk about Jiachenggong's way of doing business."

"Jiacheng Gong, I'm not interested in making money. He admires talented people. But since it's a business, it's not okay if you don't have money. Therefore, the only customers in heaven and earth in this heaven and earth can be 'talent' and 'wealth'. Those with outstanding literary talents can enjoy free orders. And those who do not have literary talents can only make up for it with 'money', and raising talents with wealth is the way of Jiacheng Gong's business. ”

Kong Yingda suddenly took over the words and said loudly: "What is a talented person, and who sets the standards?" ”

"Talented people......" Li Mu seemed to be a little embarrassed, Kong Yingda saw his expression like this, his heart sank, and secretly scolded himself for owing his mouth, this expression is too familiar to him, Li Mu, this kid is going to pretend to be forced again!

Sure enough, I heard Li Mu say: "The standard is not easy to say, let me make a sample." ”
