Chapter 603

text

"Li Mu, give me an explanation!"

As soon as Li Mu came out of the greenhouse, he met the aggressive Li Shimin. Seeing that his face was ugly, Li Mu knew what was going on, but he didn't show any of his face. He smiled and said, "Why are Your Majesty so angry? What did you do wrong?"

"You are a fraud!" Li Shimin threw the bet order Li Mu gave him in his face and cursed: "What did you give me? I can't repay it! I still feel that I owe you what I have, so I will give you an additional title. Okay, I've been fooled by you!"

Li Mu was 'smacked' and quickly picked up the bet order and said with a distressed heart: "Your Majesty, no matter how angry you are, you can't joke about this bet order. This is hundreds of thousands of dollars--"

"Fuck! This thing is worthless!" Li Shimin was still angry and wanted to continue talking, but he was so angry that he couldn't say it. He pointed to Eunuch Gao behind him and said, "Gao Guan, you say, I won't talk to him!"

Eunuch Gao responded and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Marquis, your joke is a bit too big. I want to do it for free and watch the full version. Please search on Baidu. In the afternoon, our family took the bet order to go to Sihai Gamblinghouse to redeem it, but the shopkeeper Zhao said--"

"Hey? Eunuch Gao, I'll interrupt you. Have you been to the wrong place? Where is the shopkeeper Zhao in Sihai Gambling?"

"It's Zhao Ergou!" Eunuch Gao said helplessly: "I can't call him the shopkeeper, right?"

Li Mu laughed: "Dog shopkeeper? Ha, that's appropriate-"

"I'm still laughing!" Li Shimin raised his hand and wanted to hit Li Mu. Li Mu ran away quickly and shouted, "Your Majesty, what are you doing? This is a loss of majesty."

"Don't interrupt me, explain it clearly to me, high-ranking official, please continue to say!"

Eunuch Gao continued: "When I met Manager Zhao, our family proposed to repay, but Manager Zhao said that the bet order cannot be redeemed."

Li Mu was furious: "Dog! Why can't you repay it? Could it be that he said the bet order is fake?"

"No, he admitted that it was true, but he refused to repay it. He said that the Marquis got the double Tanhua, not the double No. 1 winner, and the bet was the double No. 1 winner. How could the double Tanhua count? So when paying, the person who failed the bet was the winner, the person who made the bet was the winner and redeemed. All the people who made the bet were lost."

"This..." Li Mu frowned and said, "It's not without reason, but this should be debated. This marquis is indeed the top scorer of the two, and he was given up to become the two-Tanhua."

Li Shimin took the speech and said, "Yes, the high-ranking official said it too, but he just didn't give the money. What should you do if you talk about this!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll ask again." Li Mu looked at Eunuch Gao again and said, "Eunuch Gao, didn't you mention it to him? I'm the two top scorer who gave up, and I won."

"I said it, why didn't you say it?" Gao Eunuch said, "But they said again, take the emperor's list as the basis. Who is the top scorer written on the emperor's list and who is the top scorer? I'll make excuses back. What can I do?"

"Yes, what can Ruzhi do?" Li Mu also imitated Eunuch Gao to spread his hands, and Li Shimin glared at him angrily: "Who are you telling me? I'm asking you now, what can Ruzhi do!"

"I have no choice!" Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you should indeed take the imperial list as the basis, right? Otherwise, Your Majesty, you have issued an imperial edict to change the imperial list? If I don't give it, I'd better be the top scholar. For Your Majesty's hundreds of thousands of dollars, I'm willing! I can also get an old disciple."

"You!" Li Shimin was so angry that he almost turned his back. The emperor's words were so polite that he could not take back his words, let alone the imperial list that he told the world? How can he play the big show of the imperial examination? If the list can be taken back, will anyone participate in the imperial examination next time?

Li Shimin reached out and tore the bet order in Li Mu's hand to pieces and threw it on the ground. He glared at Li Mu fiercely, turned around and left. Eunuch Gao quickly followed, and the master and servant went down the mountain.

Li Mu smiled, picked up the paper scraps, and carried the hoe back home. Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien had already prepared supper, and Li Mu washed his hands and could eat it.

...

At dusk, Wang Ou returned to her mansion. As soon as he took a sip of tea, a maid hurried over and whispered a few times in Wang Ou's ear.

Wang Ou was shocked and said, "You mean, there were traces of loose tiles found on the warehouse? Has someone been to the room?"

The maid nodded and said, "That's what the person here said. The leader suspected that a master overheard his conversation with you."

"Who has such good light skills!" Wang Ou frowned and thought, "Can Wei Fu do it?"

After a brief pause, she said to herself: "Although Wei Fu's light skills are good, they should not reach this level."

"There are more light skills than Wei Fu. How many people can there be in the world? Who can follow me..." Wang Ou suddenly felt a sudden thud in her heart. Wei Fu's light skills are among the best in the world. There are no more people in the world in Chang'an City than him. But there are two people, who are not from the world, but their light skills must be better than Wei Fu.

This one is Eunuch Gao beside Li Shimin. According to legend, Eunuch Gao has outstanding martial arts skills. Six years ago, when Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin competed for the throne, both sides hired experts from the martial arts world to assassinate. Li Jiancheng was surrounded by crossbowmen day and night, but Li Shimin did not. Only one Eunuch Gao blocked all the assassins. Therefore, rumors in the martial arts world that Eunuch Gao's martial arts are unfathomable, especially light skills, like ghosts.

The second person, Wang Ou, suspected that it was Dugu Jiu beside Li Mu. She had never seen Dugu Jiu's skills with her own eyes, but she had seen Dugu Jiu's light skills. Dugu Jiu often suddenly appeared in front of Li Mu, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. His good skills were fully displayed. Moreover, Wei Fu once reported that he failed to compete with Dugu Jiu in light skills, which shows that Dugu Jiu's light skills were at least above Wei Fu.

Wang Ou's face became tragic. If this master was really one of these two people, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She knew Li Shimin's thoughts about her. If Li Shimin knew that Cui Yuzheng was still alive, and she and Cui Yuzheng had made a plan to ask Li Mu to borrow seeds, Cui Yuzheng, she, Li Mu, would not be able to survive.

And if this master is Dugu Jiu, it would be something that Wang Ou didn't want to face. If Li Mu knew about this, she really didn't know how to see Li Mu again.

"Have the leader confirmed this? Or has anyone seen that master?"

The maid respectfully said: "No one saw it. It was the trace of the discovery of the Black Dragon Envoy. The leader was worried, so he came to inform the saint."

"Where is the leader now?"

"The leader has moved to a safe place, so the saint doesn't have to worry."

Wang Ou looked at the maid, frowned and asked, "Where is the leader, can't even know me?"

The maid did not avoid Wang Ou's gaze and said, "The master's meaning is that my subordinates dare not disobey. When the saint knows, the saint will definitely know. Please don't make things difficult for the subordinates."

Wang Ou looked at the maid deeply and suddenly laughed: "It's true that the snake slave beside the leader is extraordinary. Okay, there's nothing you have to do, let's go down."

"Subordinates surrender."
