"He said my father-in-law is not simple?"

Li Mu looked at the Gaochang delegation who was leaving and murmured. He thought that Ju Zhisheng's event had told Zhang Tianai about his engagement with him, so he used this to disgust him, but he did not expect that Ju Zhisheng's event focused on Zhang Xun.

Li Mu really didn't know much about her father-in-law. After learning his name from Zhang Tianai, there was nothing worth noting. In Zhang Tianai's mouth, her father was an old man with old injuries and was working hard for the village. He really couldn't hear any feeling of "not simple".

In fact, if you think about it, you can know that as one of the three major Malaysian bandits in Longyou, Zhang Xun must be a character. But why did Ju Zhisheng point it out? Is there any hidden truth? For a moment, Li Mu even wanted to catch up and ask clearly.

But after thinking about it, he gave up on this idea.

What's the point? No matter how you say it is your father-in-law. With Zhang Tianai's relationship, Zhang Xun is also considered one of his relatives. Just like Bai Naoer, Li Mu was so annoyed that he was so annoyed that he even moved to hide from him. But what happened in the end?

Can a wife not want? No. Can a daughter not recognize her father? No! This is something that cannot be chosen, but what can be chosen is, which one is stronger.

The relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law is just like that. Who is awesome is the final decision. Li Mu is very awesome now, and Bai Naoer is still serving the uncle? All the problems in the past have been changed. Now even if someone puts a knife on his neck and asks him to scold Bai Qiaoqiao and asks him to say bad things about his son-in-law, he will definitely refuse.

A blacksmith must be strong himself...

Li Mu climbed onto the horse and was about to leave when he suddenly saw Eunuch Gao wave his hand with a smile. Li Mu sighed, got off the horse and came to Li Shimin's carriage.

"His Majesty."

"Come up, I have something to ask you."

Li Mu was shocked: "How dare I..."

"What are you talking about!"

Li Mu closed his mouth, grabbed the dragon head on the shaft, and climbed onto the car. Eunuch Gao waved his hand and signaled, and the ceremony set off and moved slowly.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Mu coldly and said, "Why haven't you seen you enter the palace these days?"

Li Mu looked confused and said, "Your Majesty, you are not letting me enter the palace. When the day minister brought the Zheng family's mother and daughter out of the palace, you sent an order to let me get out quickly and not summoned me, so don't go to the palace casually... I respect Your Majesty's will, so I dare not enter the palace."

Li Shimin was suffocated and glared at Li Mu fiercely, and snorted: "Quote! How many days has it been? How many days has it been? How can you not know my true intention? Don't pretend to be stupid. The 'General Yunlong' has been so majestic these days that he dared to do anything to pass the imperial edict. He really doesn't take me seriously!"

When Li Mu heard him mention the four words "General Yunlong", he immediately understood that Li Shimin knew everything and did not dare to pretend. He laughed apologized and said, "Your Majesty, your power to appoint sixth-rank officials is only one rank, not much. Besides, he is not an outsider. The eldest is my brother and the adopted son of the Hejian Prince. If he only has a sixth-rank, the Hejian Prince will find out, and he will not think that Your Majesty is too cold? I thought that I could not let the Hejian Prince choose the matter, so I boldly once and granted the fifth-rank official. But I understand Your Majesty. I will pay for the extra salary out of my own pocket..."

"Hmph!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, changed his subject and said, "Li Mu, I suddenly had a sudden idea this morning. Look, you always break the rules and always find some strange truths. If I don't deal with you, I feel uncomfortable, and I feel a little guilty when I deal with you. If we do this, you will break the rules and do not punish us, and we will fine us. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty!" Li Mu immediately cried and said, "I don't have money. Didn't I say that I have been in Liangyi Palace? I'm now losing all my money, I'm now a family member, I'm now..."

"Stop crying poor, do you think I don't know, have you just made a fortune?"

Li Mu suddenly felt a sudden heart and thought to himself that terrible. Are Li Shimin's "spy" already so clever? Could it be that he already knew that Ju Zhisheng gave 1,000 kilograms of gold and 1,000 kilograms of silver, and he already knew about concealing 90,000 jin?

When Li Shimin saw Li Mu, he was proud. Yuan Tiangang's return was indeed useful. If there was no one else, could he find out the truth?

"Don't guess, I have my own news channels. I knew last night that you sold Ju Zhisheng perfume at ten times the price. You made money by yourself, and I didn't rob you. But the day you said that you had to put the matter on the agenda. I have been thinking about this for the past few days and discussed it with Li Jing, Hou Junji and others. They all felt that this was very good. If a factory could produce weapons uniformly, it would definitely save a lot of money. The sooner this matter, the better."

"Uh..." Li Mu stammered and refused to respond. Li Shimin looked at him and said, "If you have something to say."

"Hehe--" Li Mu laughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, the factory can be built. Just as you said, I have some money in my hand, but there is something I have to say that I still have to be in front. After the factory is built, the arms produced cannot be given to the Ministry of War for nothing, and I have to buy them with money!"

I just knew that's the case!

Li Shimin thought to himself that he was sure to guess. But he did not show it, but frowned and said, "I don't understand this. The Ministry of Works belongs to me and the Ministry of War belongs to me. Could it be that I want me to pour the money from my left hand to my right hand?"

"Your Majesty, the account is not settled like this." Li Mu immediately retorted: "The Ministry of Works belongs to Your Majesty, and the Ministry of War belongs to Your Majesty, but the raw materials required to produce arms are not Your Majesty, right? Although the land within the world is the king's land, just this sentence can't be exchanged for ore and leather? Ores need to be purchased, leather needs to be purchased, and craftsmen have to eat. All of this requires money."

"And in order to improve the quality of the armour, in addition to the original weapons and armor, there are also people who come to study better weapons and armor. For example, Zhuge crossbows, it may not be necessary for someone to make better crossbows, but this requires time, manpower and material resources to accumulate, and it still costs money."

"Money is the driving force of craftsmen's hard work and hard work. Your Majesty should not underestimate this motivation. Many times miracles happen like this. Moreover, after setting up a factory, the weapons or armor made are far lower than the current price, which is already very cheap." Li Mu's tone changed, and he said, "Even if the people buy things, they know that they have to pay. Do the people in the Ministry of War think that our Ministry of Works owes them what they want? Want to spend a penny? They are bandits, robbers, and are planning to rob?"

"I don't understand this..." Li Shimin said in a difficult situation: "But now the country uses money everywhere and the treasury is too tight. How can there be extra money... Or, it will be paid from the treasury?"

Li Mu cursed inwardly, if it was released from the treasury, I would have taken it from my left pocket to my right pocket. I immediately said, "Your Majesty, do you think the money in the treasury is endless? Even if it is endless, it will be a matter for the future. Now everything is just the beginning. Didn't I say that day? It's not time to see the money back. If you say that, then the factory will not be built anymore, just take it as if it's not going to be built. Let's talk about it when you have money."

"What are you anxious about? I'm not discussing with you?" Seeing that Li Mu was anxious, Li Shimin quickly pulled the words back and said, "This is really helpless. What do you think you should do if the treasury has no money? You can't follow the previous dynasty and collect excessive taxes, right? Otherwise, you can give me an idea!"

Oh, this is to throw the ball back. The national treasury has no money, and it is hard for a good cook to cook without rice. I can't help but measure it, so I have to follow you - Haha, I really underestimate people, I want to stump me?

Li Mu calmly said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan."

Li Shimin was quite surprised: "You have a way?"

Li Mu approached Li Shimin's ear and muttered for a while. Li Shimin frowned and said, "Will the three provinces and six ministries fight like this?"

"Your Majesty, let them fight. It's like living at home. If you don't think about it, you won't know how much money you spent. If you don't have money, you will ask for it. Always be fearless and never worry. How much money can you continue like this? It's time to set a rule." After saying that, Li Mu did not forget to instruct and said, "I just want to come up with an idea. What should I do? But it's up to you. If Your Majesty does this, don't say it's my idea."

"how?"

"It's so offensive that I can't afford to offend me."

Li Shimin laughed and said, "You kid are still afraid? If you mess with the Censorate, who dares to impeach you?"

"Your Majesty, don't say that!" Li Mu hurriedly interrupted Li Shimin and said, "You don't know yet. Although the Censorate was tortured by me, the main force was not damaged. I originally thought that no one except Wei Zheng could escape such a investigation. Who would have thought that Wang Jingze was another Wei Zheng, just like the stone in the pit, smelly and hard! He and Wei Zheng were the main force of the Censorate, and neither of them had any action. The others, after this incident, were offended by me. There were still a few who were hesitant and dared to target me too much, and after this matter, they all took it aside. I got the news that after I had finished chasing my house that day, these censors all went to Wang Jingze's home and conspired for a long time. It seemed that they were determined to cause trouble for me. I was walking on thin ice these days, for fear that they would catch the handle."

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and said leisurely: "It seems you have even laid eyeliners?"

Li Mu was very involved and said, "You can't be careful. I used some small money and bribed more than twenty old wives living near these censors' houses, so that they could pay more attention when they are fine. These old wives are very informed! Not only did I learn about their conspiracy, but I also received a lot of other news. A censor's wife named Li stole people, and a censor named Wang, who had a secret marriage with his sister-in-law, and his nephew was actually his son..."

Li Shimin was stunned: "What are these things!"

"The news from those old wives to me! I plan to publish it to them in the Tang Dynasty Daily, hehe..."
