Chapter Ninety-One: A Narrative of the World's Major Events
After returning to the room, everyone stepped forward to ask Li Shimin what he was talking about, Chu Mofeng took out the gift list sent by Li Shimin from his arms and handed it to everyone. Seeing this, Gu Zhen'er snatched it and sent it to Xiao Ruolan, who was still on the hospital bed, and said with a smile: "Let's see what compensation that Li Shimin has given." ”
Xiao Ruolan picked up the gift list and carefully browsed it, then breathed a long sigh of relief, handed the gift list back to Gu Zhen'er and said, "Zhen'er, do you see if it's a little heavy, it's just an arrow on the shoulder." ”
After Gu Zhen'er took it and opened it and took a look, she couldn't help but gasp, stared at Chu Mofeng and said, "Brother Feng, I'm really not mistaken, right?"
"Well, you were right. Chu Mofeng nodded and said, "In addition to Ruolan's compensation, there is also the reward for our mission this time." Zhen'er, pass the gift list to everyone to see. ”
After everyone looked at the gift list one by one, they couldn't help but look at each other, and the careful Mo Ziyao gritted her teeth and thought for a moment, raised her head and looked at Chu Mofeng and said, "Husband, I think Li Shimin presented such a heavy gift list this time, it seems that it is not just because we helped him rescue Uncle Li, right?"
"Well, your thoughts are basically the same as my and Shuang'er's guesses, in fact, Brother Shimin's intentions are also very easy to guess, it is nothing more than to win us over, and if you need it in the future, you can use our strength. Chu Mofeng looked out the window, and the handsome and majestic figure appeared in his eyes again, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart: If the kid really has the will to dominate the world and win the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it really coincides with his father's speculation.
At this time, Mo Ziyao and Shi Hanshuang stood aside and kept discussing something with Liu Feiyan and the others, and from time to time there were words such as 'how to do that' and 'this is not good', and everyone had to look back at Chu Mofeng outside the crowd every time they said a word, Chu Mofeng looked at them with a puzzled face, wondering if this group of girls was having some ghost ideas again.
After a while, everyone ended the discussion, turned their heads and looked at Chu Mofeng in unison, Chu Mofeng was a little hairy by Shi Hanshuang and the others' direct gaze, and couldn't help but shudder and asked: "What are you guys just discussing? It can't be related to me, right?" ”
I only heard Gu Zhen'er smile sadly and said, "Brother Feng, guess!"
Seeing this, Chu Mofeng jumped up, retreated to the door of the room with a sliding step, looked at Shi Hanshuang and the others in horror and said, "If there is anything, you can quickly say it, don't create a tense atmosphere here." ”
"Hahaha, I'll just say he can't help but tease at all, you still don't believe it. Mo Ziyao, who couldn't hold back the first, laughed loudly, "Actually, it's nothing, I discussed with Shuang'er, there is no need to ask a housekeeper and an account room at home, after all, it is more reassuring to manage your own things." ”
"No, Zi Yao, don't divert the topic, what is your own thing? What is the account housekeeper, this is definitely not what you just discussed. It seemed that he didn't quite believe Mo Ziyao's words, Chu Mofeng still looked at the people in front of him vigilantly.
"Mo Feng, this is what we just discussed, isn't it because Brother Li sent these things, a few of us discussed letting Feiyan and them be fully responsible for the storage and use of these things, after all, I have been studying art in the mountains before, and Ziyao has never asked about these belongings, so I have to ask Feiyan them. Shi Hanshuang saw that her husband didn't believe Mo Ziyao's words, so she hurriedly explained.
"Well, I believe you this time. Chu Mofeng nodded, turned back to the front of everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Recently, you will recuperate for the time being, and after Ruolan recovers from her injury, you will go to the north of Jinyang to inquire about the movements of the Turks." ”
"Husband, don't you need to pay attention to the rebel army in the Great Sui?" Shi Hanshuang stepped aside and poured a bowl of water for Xiao Ruolan, "After all, judging from this rescue, these rebel armies are bound to have a great impact on the country." ”
"The rebel army is an internal trouble, this is easy to solve, there is an endless stream of rebel forces all over the country, but it is always a state of eliminating one and the other, and the Turks are external troubles, how can external troubles be solved if they are not eliminated?" Chu Mofeng shook his head and said slowly.
When everyone heard this, they all said yes, and seeing that there was nothing to do at the moment, Chu Mofeng turned around and walked out of the house, sitting in the courtyard and pondering.
For three or four days in a row, everyone lived a comfortable life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in the mansion, and Xiao Ruolan's injury quickly healed under Mo Ziyao's careful care.
I thought that Li Shimin would not invite him to come over the house soon, but in the early morning of the fifth day, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion came to the door and sent an invitation, and the post specifically stated that only one person was invited to Chu Mofeng at the beginning of the afternoon.
Chu Mofeng, who got the post, looked at the back of the housekeeper of the Li Mansion who was gone, and couldn't help but smile, thinking that what he should have come was finally coming.
At the beginning of the afternoon, Chu Mofeng dressed up and came to the gate of the Li Mansion next door on time, and after delivering the invitation, the soldiers at the door hurriedly led Chu Mofeng to the mansion.
As soon as I walked to the promenade of the courtyard, I saw Li Shimin running over from a distance, and shouted in his mouth as he ran: "Rude and rude, Brother Chu is here today, brother, I forgot about this matter as soon as I was busy, and I missed the distance to welcome Brother Chu to forgive my sins." ”
"Brother Shimin is polite, brother, I still like to drink the tea of your house, whether it is Longjing or Maojian, it is much better than my house. Chu Mofeng smiled and hurriedly diverted the topic.
As soon as he heard that Chu Mofeng wanted to drink tea, Li Shimin hurriedly made a gesture of please, and led Chu Mofeng to the main hall, as soon as he entered the main hall, he didn't see Li Yuan as expected, Chu Mofeng was puzzled and couldn't help asking: "I originally wanted to bring some more Zhangye drunken to give to my uncle, but Neiko Hanshuang said that the newly brewed Zhangye drunk has already been sent out from Zhangye, and it is not too late to present it to my uncle when it is sent to Jinyang, so I want to ask my uncle how much is left." ”
"My father went to inspect the county seat a few days ago, and I will definitely report this when I come back. ”
"Well, it's a big pity that I can't drink with my uncle today. Hearing that Li Yuan was not there, and knowing that the protagonist of today's narrative was Li Shimin, Chu Mofeng secretly planned it in his heart.
"Since the relationship between our two governments is so close, there will be time in the future. Li Shimin smiled, thinking about how to open his mouth to recruit Chu Mofeng.
At this time, the servant served tea and pastries, Chu Mofeng picked up the teacup and blew the heat in the cup, slowly took a sip and said, "Brother Shimin, I think you invited me to the house this time not only to invite me to taste fresh tea, right?"
"How can I open my mouth when this is called brother, I don't know what Brother Chu thinks of the current imperial court after what happened last time?" Li Shimin cleared his throat, took a sip of tea, and thought to himself, I will first see what kind of attitude you have towards the imperial court.
"In fact, these so-called rebel armies, there is no need for the imperial court to pay too much attention to them at this time. Putting down the teacup in his hand, Chu Mofeng said slowly: "If there are really clever and eloquent people in the imperial court, it is completely possible to adopt a joint vertical and horizontal approach, so that these rebel armies can fight each other, and the imperial court only needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and if necessary, it can secretly help one of them." Chu Mofeng listened to Li Shimin's question to himself, and thought to himself, I have to see what you think of the Turks, as for these rebel armies, there is really nothing to worry about.
Then Chu Mofeng said: "In fact, the most important direction of war in the imperial court should be the Turks, that is a national enemy, a foreign trouble, if they are allowed to wantonly occupy our land and slaughter our people, the country will not be a country in the long run." I wonder if Brother Shimin agrees with his brother's point of view?"
Li Shimin nodded, thinking that this kid is worthy of being a person in the rivers and lakes, and the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and it is estimated that this is the current situation, but the intention of the imperial court is to solve the internal worries first, and then remove the troubles.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin opened his mouth and said: "Brother, I also agree with your point of view, but Yang Guang's kid has already been coaxed by Yuwenshu's traitorous minister at this moment, according to the news from Luoyang, Yang Guang has moved away from Luoyang at this time and went to the south of the Yangtze River. The ministers of the DPRK and China were all executed if they had any advice. Now all that's left are a bunch of muddy people. ”
After speaking, Li Shimin sighed, Chu Mofeng picked up the teacup and was speechless for a long time, and secretly muttered in his heart: Since my father's group of old ministers were unjustly killed, the court is really worse day by day, favoring villains, relying on traitorous ministers, and extorting tyranny...... All this is Yang Guang's sin, listen to his masters, when the first emperor was alive, the people of Guotai were at ease, and they often hit the Turks with heavy troops, but they were light tax cuts internally, even if they were their cheap brother-in-law--- abolished prince Yang Yong, in the days when he was the prince, in addition to liking luxury, he was willing to humbly listen to the advice of the old ministers politically, and vigorously befriended the generals in the army militarily. The court that the fathers fought for has long been unsightly.
Chu Mofeng picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea by himself, drank all the tea in the cup, then picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite, looked at Li Shimin with a straight face, and said something shocking and vulgar that Li Shimin will never forget.
I only heard Chu Mofeng say slowly: "If this court has rotted from the roots, then it is like a big tree, the people are the soil is the nutrients, the political, military and economic are the trunks, and the emperor is the roots. ”
After swallowing the pastry in his mouth, Chu Mofeng said again: "Now that this big tree has rotted through the roots, the nutrients are gone, and the soil is dry, many people want to turn into a pickaxe, in a vain attempt to cut down this big tree and turn it into a new big tree, so why don't people do the hand that holds the pickaxe, dig up the big tree with the help of others, and when the tree falls, throw the pickaxe in his hand, so as to incarnate into a new big tree, this is much better than making a pickaxe and being held by others, right?"
Then Chu Mofeng stood up, turned around and walked outside the house, leaving only one sentence: "If Brother Shimin is willing to be the hand holding the pickaxe, come to me next door, just say goodbye!"
Li Shimin sat in his seat and couldn't speak for a long time, as if he was startled by Chu Mofeng's remarks, and his rapid breathing confirmed that he couldn't calm down at the moment......
