Chapter 708

text

"You drink with you in the golden cup, and your blades will not be spared."

When he returned to Tai Chi Palace, Eunuch Gao called the imperial physician to help Li Shimin bandage the wound on his hand. Li Shimin stared at the blood seeping out of the bandage of his palm and murmured the poem that Li Mu had just recited.

After reading it several times, Li Shimin smiled bitterly. He looked at Eunuch Gao and said, "Is the auxiliary machine still outside the hall?"

Eunuch Gao bowed and replied, "If you say that, the uncle will still kneel outside the hall."

"What should I do if I ask you to do-" Li Shimin sighed. On the way back, Changsun Wuji confessed everything he did - because it could not be hidden. Since the matter failed, Li Shimin would definitely investigate. Instead of being investigated by Yuan Tiangang, it would be better to say it first. Moreover, this time, Li Shimin shed blood for him, and he could not stop talking.

And he dares to say that it is because of this. Li Shimin was able to "take the sword with empty hands" for him, which is enough to show that in Li Shimin's heart, his position as Changsun Wuji.

Li Shimin did not expect that the initiator of all this was really as the Queen Changsun guessed, and that it was Changsun Wuji's actions. Li Mu was completely wronged from beginning to end. Looking back on what he did to Li Mu over the past period of time, Li Shimin himself wanted to give himself a mouthful. He asked himself, if he was Li Mu, he would never forgive him.

The Longquan sword was given to Li Mu. The first person Li Mu pulled the sword and injured was himself. Li Shimin recalled the details and Li Mu decided to deliberately draw the sword and point it at Changsun Wuji, but he knew that he would not let Changsun Wuji have something to do, so the first person who was unwilling to forgive was actually his emperor.

It’s worthy of being Li Mu. This kid is really bold and arrogant!

His attitude has been shown by the fact that the sword is unwilling to forgive him. From now on, he will not forgive those who provoke him again. Li Shimin imagined the worst possibility. If Li Mu really wanted to rebel, would he succeed?

Now that the Turkic border troubles have been eliminated, the world is peaceful. In fact, Li Shimin did not believe that someone might have successfully rebelled in the Central Plains. The fierce soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are now in their battle years and have the strongest combat power. There are many powerful generals in the court. Even if the five surnames and seven sects are united together, they will definitely not be able to destroy the Tang Dynasty.

But what if this person is Li Mu?

Li Shimin suddenly realized that he was a little unsure. Because Li Mu's tricks were always wild and unpredictable. Now, Li Shimin regretted bringing Li Mu to Luoyang. Luoyang is the hinterland of the Central Plains and is well-connected. If Li Mu was in charge of Luoyang, it would not take a few years.

With all the twists and turns, Li Shimin dared not think about it anymore and said to Eunuch Gao: "I passed my order and Duke Zhao resigned from his post because he claimed to be sick. I will not allow him to recuperate. The affairs of the Ministry of Personnel will be temporarily taken over by the Minister of Personnel. When he recovers from his illness, he will continue to be reused."

Duke Zhao resigned from his post when he claimed to be sick? Where did it happen? This thought flashed through his head, and suddenly realized it. He hurriedly said a promise, turned around and went out to pass the imperial edict.

Eunuch Gao said what Li Shimin meant, and after that, he went in and reported his life. Changsun Wuji kowtowed to the palace gate and received the order to thank him. When he got up, his knees were a little numb because he had been kneeling for too long, and he almost fell down and was supported by a small eunuch.

Changsun Wuji was about to thank him, but the little eunuch said, "Uncle Guo, I am sent by the Empress to wait for the Uncle Guo. The Empress said that she was very disappointed with the Uncle Guo. Before His Majesty forgives the Uncle Guo, please don't go to the palace again."

"Queen She--" Changsun Wuji opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. He responded dejectedly, saying, "Please tell the queen, just say, everything I did is for Changsun, I..." After pausing, Changsun Wuji sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go back like this."

"Okay, I remember." The little eunuch responded, but did not move. Changsun Wuji looked at him and saw that the little eunuch twisted his right index finger and thumb. This was no longer a hint, but an explicit statement. Changsun Wuji couldn't help but burst into anger. When did the little eunuch in Lizheng Hall dare to ask for it? Although he would give it occasionally on weekdays, it was called "reward". If he was asked for it on his own initiative, it would be fine. A small eunuch who passed the message would dare to--

Changsun Wuji was about to get angry, but suddenly stopped. His movements froze in the air, then he withdrew his raised hand and took out an ingot of ingot from his arms.

"I have a little bit of a word, I'll bother my father-in-law. I must pass the message to the queen to know."

When the eunuch saw that it was five taels of silver, he was satisfied. He put it in his sleeve without leaving any trace, said "promise", and left with satisfaction.

When he returned to Lizheng Hall, the little eunuch told him what had just happened, then took out the silver and respectfully handed it over to Empress Changsun. It turned out that the little eunuch's approach was arranged by Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun rewarded the silver to the eunuch and said, "You have done a good job, go ahead."

The little eunuch went away happily. Empress Changsun opened the female training in her hand one page. The book tells a story about a woman getting married and becoming a husband.

Everything in the Changsun family is given by the royal family. Where will the skin be attached without hair? Anything that harms the royal family will harm the Changsun family without any benefit. Without the saint's family, the uncle is also worthless and no one will respect it—

I hope my brother can understand.

——

The blood test of a relative soon spread throughout Chang'an City. The process of twists and turns, relating and reversing was talked about by the people after dinner. In order to verify the authenticity, some people really asked their brothers and sons to try it, which caused a lot of conflicts, but this was just off-topic.

This is the focus of the people, and the nobles, family members, etc. are paying attention to another focus. They are beginning to become in danger because they suddenly find that Li Mu is fine and he is fine again!

He is fine, it means that someone needs to be in trouble! The successive fall of Wang Gui, Changsun Wuji and other bigwigs were regarded by the government and the people as the clarion call of Li Mu's counterattack.

The sentence "You drink with the golden cup, and your hands will not be spared" is more like a slogan, announcing Li Mu's determination to draw his sword.

His sword, even the emperor's blood, dares to drink, what else does he dare not? Not to mention, Shangfang's sword was originally killed first and then reported. Your Majesty felt guilty to Li Mu. Even if Li Mu found a reason to kill a few people, Your Majesty would not cause trouble for him. And these unlucky guys were still in vain?

Some of the people who jumped the most when they impeached Li Mu before, and some even ran away overnight, for fear of staying in Chang'an City, were killed by Li Mu.

But in fact, this is just the conjecture of a guilty person. Li Mu did nothing, he was packing his luggage and also dealing with some things from beginning to end, such as his business in Chang'an.

After Li Mu cleared the shares of Datang Salt Industry, Datang Mining Industry and other shares, his industry was actually very clear. He had the theater of Lichunyuan, the gambling house of Sihai Gambling House, the women's specialty store of Feng Qiuhuang, and other miscellaneous and small ones, which can be ignored. These are the main ones.

He was not going to continue to operate Lichunyuan because Jin Chen was going to Luoyang with him and did not want to stay in Chang'an City. If Jin Chen was not here, Lichunyuan would have no pillars. As a "clean hall", the income was not very objective. However, if he did not continue to operate, it would seem a pity. Li Mu thought about it and found Cheng Yaojin, and gave Lichunyuan to him at a very fair price.

Of course, Cheng Yaojin was very happy. He got Lichunyuan, plus the income from horse farms, horse racing, etc. After Li Mu left, the Cheng family became the real number one in Chang'an. He earned hundreds of thousands of yuan a year, and each of them was comparable to a sect.

Sihai Gambling House cannot be closed yet. Because Sihai Gambling House now has the responsibility to issue currency. Sihai Gambling House's unique "glass chips" have become a large currency recognized by all parties. Even many merchants traveling to and from the Silk Road choose to send their money in Sihai Gambling House, bringing only glass chips back and forth, which facilitates bulk transactions and does not have to worry about someone snatching the wealth, which is very secretive.

In order to avoid trouble in the future, Li Mu found Fang Xuanling and asked him to send someone from the Shangshu Province to take over the bank of the Craftsman's Workshop first, and then use the bank to "hold" Sihai Gambling to turn Sihai Gambling from a "private enterprise" to a "state-owned enterprise". Although doing so, Li Mu would inevitably lose a lot of income personally, it was a great benefit to the treasury.

As for Feng Qiuhuang, it is simple. Meilan, Zhuju, four big maids, have now been trained to become a ingredient. Xiaozhu and Xiaoju can handle it. Xiaomei and Xiaolan can go to Luoyang with him and open another Feng Qiuhuang. Li Mu intends to build Feng Qiuhuang into a chain store.

The rest is Bashang winery.

The production of wine shops depends on the wine chorus purchased by Li Mu from the system store. In other words, the wine shop will not make a big profit. The wine shop makes huge profits and leaves his sight for a long time. Li Mu is not at ease. If others don’t say it, Cheng Yaojin is very worried. Therefore, he decided to dismantle the Bashang wine shop directly, dismantle the equipment into parts, load it on a large truck, and transport it directly to Luoyang to choose a place to build a new wine shop.

He handed all the remaining things, including his dozens of hectares of land, to Bai Nao'er. Although Bai Nao'er said hypocritically that without Li Mu, he could not control this big stall himself, but Li Mu could see how happy he was. Li Mu didn't care. He couldn't take away these remaining things, and it would be useless to give them to others. It would be better to give them to Bai Nao'er, and no matter what, he would be his father-in-law.

He wanted to take away all the things in the valley courtyard, especially the things in his studio, all of which were packed. Li Mu didn't enjoy the soon-to-be-finished Xiaoyao Valley, but he didn't want them anymore, and just gave them to Li Yuan. The valley is like spring all year round, and it's the best time to retire.

After dealing with these matters, Li Mu did not enter the palace to say goodbye to Li Shimin. He just said goodbye to Sun. He took Bai Qiaoqiao and Jin Chen and left Chang'an at dusk under Su Dingfang's escort.

...

Tai Chi Palace.

Li Mu left, he left with the fastest he could do, and even many things he had not had time to deal with, he handed it out in one go, cut off his flesh and wrists, and left like that.

Li Shimin looked at the news reported by the bad guys, and felt even more regretful.

He knew that he had completely injured Li Mu, so Li Mu was so determined that he even had to draw a clear line with Chang'an without hesitating for huge losses. He didn't know what else he could do to win back Li Mu's heart. Apologize? It's not that I can't. If it works, Li Shimin would definitely apologize, and even issued a self-destruction. He could do this.

But Li Mu's words of drinking with you in the golden cup, and his hands and blades were unlucky, which dispelled his thoughts. The wound on his palm had not healed yet, so he reminded him that doing so was futile.

Maybe time can make this thing forget?

Can it be?

Li Shimin didn’t know, he didn’t even know whether it was a problem to raise a tiger when he let Li Mu go this time!

"Your Majesty." Queen Changsun's voice sounded. Li Shimin turned around and saw her, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and hurried over: "Empress, I feel a little-"

"Your Majesty, isn't the matter solved now?" Empress Changsun smiled and said, "I heard that when Li Mu left, he gave His Majesty a big gift? In the Sihai Gambling House, Li Mu gave His Majesty more than half of His Majesty's shares. Li Mu was really willing to make a surplus of hundreds of thousands of yuan a year."

Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "The more Li Mu is like this, the more I feel sorry for him." He looked at Empress Changsun and said, "Wugui, do you think I am a villain?"

"How can Your Majesty belittle yourself?" Empress Changsun was a little moved when she heard Li Shimin calling her life. Li Shimin had not called this name for many years. Before he became emperor, he often called this name. At that time, he called this name, which was so tender. When the two were emperors and the other were queens, such a title seemed inappropriate, and their relationship became much more distant.

"If the world is in chaos, the people will suffer. Your Majesty must think so."

"I'm not." Li Shimin smiled bitterly and admitted the devil in his heart: "If the eldest brother's descendants are others, I really don't care so much, but if it were Li Mu, I, I, I, I, are really a little scared."

The emperor is afraid of his subjects?

Queen Changsun was slightly surprised. She looked at Li Shimin who was a little fragile in front of her. She couldn't believe that this sentence was said from his mouth. Is this the one in her heart who was riding on a horse and rushing to death, like a god descending to earth?
