Li Linfu smiled: "Your Majesty is joking with Weichen?" With such a good fate, I am happy for the two children, Your Majesty will definitely approve, and Weichen is very honored. ”

Li Longji muttered: "It's you Li Linfu who is thick-skinned, I want to refuse, and I'm afraid of hurting your face, but don't be too proud, I reluctantly agreed, and I have to wait for the twenty-first to come back, and ask him face to face, if he refuses, don't blame me." ”

Li Linfu said with a smile: "The marriage of children has always been the order of the parents, where is their turn to make irresponsible remarks, but Weichen please rest assured, the two children have met and like each other, Weichen can see it, His Royal Highness the prince promises to agree." ”

Li Longji sneered: "Are you so impatient and want to marry your daughter's father?" I still tolerate their private meetings, so I don't feel ashamed, or not, Master Li, so be it = marry your daughter to a prince who is nothing, are you willing? ”

Li Linfu paused for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty asked such a question?" Weichen is afraid, it is already the greatest honor for his daughter to marry His Royal Highness the Prince, what kind of plan does Your Majesty have, why don't you make it clear? ”

Li Longji sneered: "Seeing that it is the family of children and daughters, can I lose you?" You say, get some errand for Twenty-One, he is smart and clever, he is idle all day long, and it is a pity that it is wasted, you propose a plan, and I will consider it again. ”

Li Linfu was shocked, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty's love, Weichen understands, His Royal Highness's affairs are still in charge of His Majesty, and Weichen will never dare to trespass." ”

Li Longji said: "Don't come to this set, you will be allowed to take advantage of the cheapness alone, make some efforts, take responsibility, do you still want to refuse?" From my point of view, twenty-one abilities and qualities are worthy of great responsibilities, do you understand what I mean? ”

Li Linfu pretended to be confused and asked, "What does Your Majesty mean, is it to add the title of a prince to His Royal Highness the prince as soon as possible?" Let him be prosperous, rich, and at ease? ”

Li Longji said: "Nonsense, it is a matter of time before the king is crowned, I think about it, you really don't understand?" ”

Li Linfu asked, "Your Majesty won't let His Royal Highness the Prince go to the Sixth Ministry, right?" Li Linfu deliberately played Tai Chi, looking stupid, the more this happened, the more anxious Li Longji would be, and the more he liked it.

Li Longji glared at Li Linfu and said, "Is there any other position in the Sixth Department?" A prince, being a small official, you can't think of it, and then think about it? ”

Li Linfu shook his head: "Weichen doesn't dare to think nonsense, Your Majesty, don't torture Weichen, please make it clear to Your Majesty, Weichen will fully cooperate, wouldn't it be beautiful." ”

Li Longji looked out the window and said nothing with a smile, which made Li Linfu's heart go up and down.

For a long time, Li Longji said: "Today, the peace of the country and the people is also a good opportunity to strengthen the national strength and promote the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty. ”

Li Linfu was shocked, looked at Li Longji in amazement, and asked: "Your Majesty, it is the old rule of the Tang Dynasty for the prince to supervise the country, although the twenty-first prince is witty and flexible, let him supervise the country, is it too abrupt, where will the prince be placed in this way?" ”

Li Linfu shouted for Li Heng in his mouth, and he was very happy in his heart, but he didn't expect Li Longji to want Li Mu to be in charge of the country, so the next step, is it to replace the crown prince?

Great, if Li Mu becomes the prince and marries him, the whole world will be theirs in the future?

Li Linfu was ecstatic in his heart, but his face showed anxiety and incomprehension.

Li Longji said: "There are many old rules in the Tang Dynasty, and the rules are set by people, what's the problem with changing them? Sticking to the rules, isn't my Datang resting on his laurels? ”

Li Linfu asked: "Your Majesty, the crown prince is in charge of the country, conscientious, and deeply respected by hundreds of officials, is it unfair to the prince to do this?" ”

Li Longji sank his face and asked: "Lord Li, what I think in my heart is the family and country of the Tang Dynasty, not the gains and losses of a certain person, the prince wears many hats, I think he can't be busy anymore, Lord Li, this matter will be handed over to you to operate, the hundred officials, how to advance and retreat, you look at it, what I want is the result." ”

"Yes, Weichen takes the order." Li Linfu pretended to be very embarrassed and reluctant, looking at Li Longji with a bitter expression.

Li Longji sneered: "Don't pretend in front of me, this matter is not harmful to you, if it is done, I will think about your family's empty matter,"

Li Linfu nodded in agreement, still embarrassed, Li Longji was too lazy to entangle, and directly waved his hand to let Li Linfu go out.

Let the twenty-first prison country, Li Longji thought about it for a long time, knowing that doing so would cause criticism from many courtiers, but Li Mu's wonderful performance everywhere made Li Longji make up his mind.

To appease the hundred officials, this kind of bad thing, let Li Linfu do it, Li Linfu is in a hurry to marry his daughter, Li Mu is in charge of the country, Li Linfu is the biggest beneficiary, don't make a little effort, pick up the benefits for nothing, how can there be such a cheap thing.

Li Longji looked at Li Linfu's uncomfortable appearance, and he was happy in his heart, as for whether it is true or not, it doesn't matter, fighting with these ministers, everyone is comparing acting skills.

At this time, Li Mu and his party were full of wine and food in Qingxi Town, and everyone rested for a while and continued to get in the car.

In the carriage, Li Mu was a little sleepy, and after walking for a long time, he drooped his head, Cai Cai hurriedly approached Li Mu, and gave his small shoulders to Li Mu as a pillow.

Qing'er didn't react, and when she saw that Cai Cai had seized the opportunity, she was very unhappy, and hurriedly sat on the other side of Li Mu, and also dedicated her immature fragrant shoulders.

Li Mu was very uncomfortable by the two little girls, opened his eyes, and muttered: "You guys, how do I rest, come on, come, I'll just lie down for a while, if you're okay, just beat my legs." ”

Cai Cai and Qing'er looked at each other and smiled, this suggestion is very good, the two of them waited for Li Mu to lean on the soft collapse, put their legs on the low stool, and the two of them sat down next to Li Mu on the left and right.

Then, he gently raised his little fist and beat Li Mu's leg, which was fair and intimate, and no one took advantage of it.

The scenery inside the car is beautiful, the sun is warm outside, and the convoy is like a cheerful river.

Until dusk approached, and suddenly the sky became unusually bright and pale, and then the daylight dimmed sharply, alternating several times, and there seemed to be thunder roaring in the distance.

Yang Zhao had already gotten out of the car, looked at the sky, was worried, and had to knock on Li Mu's car window.

Li Mu asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yang Zhao said: "Your Royal Highness, I'm afraid that the sky is going to change, and there are thunder and lightning, should we continue to hurry, or find a place to rest?" ”

Li Mu sat up, Qing'er had already opened the curtains, Li Mu glanced outside, and complained in his heart, this situation was obviously the prelude to the storm.

This autumn, it's really weird, there was a drought and thunder and lightning before, pouring rain, making people panic, causing a lot of losses, it's okay to go out today, at this time, the ghost weather is coming again?

Li Mu asked, "County Lieutenant Yang, where have we gone?" ”

Yang Zhao said: "After walking a short and half distance, I have almost reached the boundary of Lishan. ”

Li Mu said: "I can't go anymore, it is estimated that it will be a rainstorm for a while, hurry up and find a place to rest, and hide from the rain first." ”

Yang Zhao said: "Not far in front is a large village, maybe there is an inn, we will rest there. ”

Li Mu instructed Yang Zhao to hurry up, and then several carriages also sped up.

The next moment, Li Mu's convoy stopped in an inn, everyone laughed and laughed, and as soon as they packed up their things, they saw lightning streak across the sky.

Then there was a thrilling thunderstorm, as if it was about to split the Lishan Mountain not far away.

Li Mu stood in front of the window, watching the fierce performance in the sky, just like ten days ago, in the palace hall, after the thunder and lightning raged, it was a downpour.

The sky instantly became dark and low, and the black clouds pressed down, approaching the field of vision, and everyone who watched was shocked.

Several little girls were so frightened that they gathered around Li Mu.

Li Mu suddenly saw that in the gloomy rain curtain, a few black-clothed people flashed by, and then saw Qin Zhong with four or five big men, scolding and chasing.

On the other side, Zuo Li also threw away his camouflage and outflanked him with seven or eight plainclothes.

There were more plainclothes, quickly gathered and rushed forward.

Li Mu turned around and shouted: "Everyone tie the doors and windows, don't make a sound, don't move, there are villains outside." ”

Li Mu said, hurriedly closed the window, everyone was also nervous, Xiao Chunzi and Xiao Huzi closed the doors and windows, and then guarded the door, everyone seemed to know that there was a situation outside.

Several girls, regardless of their own safety at this time, surrounded Li Mu and blocked Li Mu behind.

Qing'er and Cai Cai were even closer to Li Mu, and the two held hands and bit their lips.

Li Mu didn't expect that in the face of danger, these little guys would be so desperate to protect themselves, Li Mu's eyes were sour, and he suddenly felt that the trip to Datang was so warm.

In the midst of the raging storm, everyone heard the terrible sound of swords slashing, as well as the screams, shouts and curses of men.

The tense atmosphere has been continuing, like thunder and lightning outside.

Half an hour later, the thunder went out, the lightning disappeared, the torrential rain gradually stopped, and even the shouting and fighting outside completely stopped.

Two voices suddenly came from outside the door: "Zuo Li, Qin Zhong greets His Highness." ”

Li Mu nodded to everyone and let them relax, Xiao Chunzi and Xiao Huzi opened the door, went out first and glanced around, and saw Zuo Li and Qin Zhong kneeling a few steps away from the door.

Li Mu walked out of the door and asked, "Two generals, get up and talk, what was the situation just now?" ”

Qin Zhong said: "Back to Your Highness, there are two bandits of unknown origin, a total of seventeen, all of whom have been killed. ”

Li Mu asked, "Why don't you stay alive?" ”

Zuo Li said: "The people who came are clearly dead soldiers, even those who are hit by the sword, they also committed suicide immediately, Your Highness, please rest assured, they are not targeting Your Highness, they are also passing by here, it seems that they are going in the direction of Lishan." ”

Li Mu frowned and said, "The two generals are hard, do you have any casualties?" ”

Qin Zhong said: "The forbidden army and General Zuo's escort battalion have a total of seven seriously injured and eleven lightly injured, and none of them died. ”

Li Mu nodded and said, "This is the best, you should immediately settle the wounded and go to rest." ”

Qin Zhong said: "Your Highness Xie, everything is arranged, there are sixty or seventy people here, guarding Your Highness on all sides, please rest in peace Your Highness, and the general will leave." ”

After the two finished speaking, they kowtowed to Li Mu, and then got up to leave.

A false alarm.

Li Mu's mood has not deteriorated, he has experienced natural disasters and man-made disasters, but he has seen the world more clearly.

Warm, bloody, and there is no lack of undercurrent crisis, this is the real Kaiyuan prosperous era.

I like it!

Everything seemed to disappear suddenly, the night sky became clear and clean, Li Mu looked up at the night sky, his eyes stopped in the direction of Lishan, his heart was calm and joyful.
