After dinner, Li Shimin still couldn't rest. There were a lot of memorials today, and he had to finish it before the discussions tomorrow. When the emperor was so tired, it was very boring for Li Mu to come. He also gave Li Shimin ideas, such as decentralizing power to the six ministries, letting the six ministries be judged, or picking up some relatively basic things, and simply taking them to the East Palace and letting the prince deal with it. But Li Shimin didn't listen to him in the end, and still took everything himself, at most, let Changsun Wuji help him. But even if Changsun Wuji helped him, it was under his nose. There was no such thing as Changsun Wuji finished it himself and made a decision on his own. He just provided the function of a "filter" to filter out the useless, and then divided the usefulness into importance. He told Li Shimin concisely and let him make a decision.
In fact, Li Shimin was arbitrary in big and small matters. This was in sharp contrast to Li Yuan's reign when he was in power.
When Li Yuan was the emperor, he almost didn't care much. Wen's handed over to his eldest son and Wu's handed over to his second son. The court claimed to be two factions, and they balanced each other. When one of them was pointed, he would point out when necessary to maintain the balance. The specific things were done by the people below.
Normally, this is the standard posture for being an emperor. If it weren't for the end, Li Yuan's achievements would not be as good as Emperor Wen of Sui. There are many similarities between the two of them. Why didn't Li Shimin imitate his father? In the final analysis, the throne came from the wrong way. He needs to be too prepared for him. His father is still alive, so he has to be prepared for him. The eldest brother's power still has remnants in the court, so he has to be prepared for him. Even his son Li Chengqian and Li Shimin cannot believe it. After all, he was Li Yuan's son, but didn't he usurp the throne in the end?
From an inner perspective, Li Shimin is a person who has no sense of peace. So he can only keep working hard to make everything he has become a natural fit. This is why he always says that he thinks he is a better emperor than Li Jiancheng, because he works harder and more diligent. He needs these reasons for him to "replace it", and even if no one believes it, he can comfort himself.
After the second update, it was midnight soon. Eunuch Gao yawned silently, moved slowly without making any sound, and came to Li Shimin. His figure blocked the palace lanterns and reflected his shadow. Li Shimin felt it and said, "It's already the second update?"
"Yes, Your Majesty should rest, and you will have an early date tomorrow."
"There are three memorials left, let's go to bed afterwards." Li Shimin waved his hand, and Eunuch Gao hurriedly moved away to avoid blocking Li Shimin's sight.
Perhaps the last three memorials were not very important, Li Shimin swept through them in one glance, without stopping too much. He pulled the red stroke in his hand and made a mark, and it was finished, without any reply or comments.
"Calling the day, is Li Mu's child about to be born?"
Eunuch Gao was stunned and looked at Li Shimin secretly. He didn't know why he suddenly asked, but he couldn't help but respond, and said, "By the day, it's almost done. It's just these three or five days. Your Majesty. If there is any news, it will be reported to Your Majesty immediately."
Li Shimin nodded, was silent for a while, and said unintentionally, "Mrs. Mudan doesn't seem to be a long time away, and I don't know what happened to her?"
Eunuch Gao's heart skipped a beat and didn't dare to follow up. He was really afraid of anything, why couldn't he escape this? Why did His Majesty ask Mrs. Mudan, is it still unrequited? What should I do? The child in Mrs. Mudan's belly is Li Mu's!
Your Majesty asked what to do about this? How would the queen explain it? How should I answer? Do I know or not? If Your Majesty asked me to investigate, what should I say? Should I tell Li Mu and make him prepared?
For a moment, Eunuch Gao was in a state of confusion, worried that Li Shimin would see something, so he lowered his head and pretended not to hear it, trying to get away with it.
"I ask casually, you just say casually. If you don't know, you don't know. I didn't blame you, what are you afraid of?"
"I am not afraid of your majesty. I am thinking about it." Eunuch Gao responded quickly and said, "It seems that the days are apart, and it seems that it has been a month since I have been preparing. If you want to make it, you have to prepare. However, Mrs. Mudan was not in Luoyang. If Your Majesty did not give her instructions, I did not pay much attention to her specific information."
"Didn't you pay attention?" Li Shimin glanced at Eunuch Gao, and Eunuch Gao quickly bowed to prepare for the storm. But Li Shimin did not, and still asked lightly, "She has a close relationship with the woman named Lu. She is not in Luoyang, where can she be?"
"I really don't know. If Your Majesty wants to know, I will ask the children for inquiries."
Li Shimin was silent for a while and said, "The world is so big, where to look for it. Pay more attention to Li Mu. He can't care about his children. You don't have to be afraid. I didn't want to do anything, I just wanted to know her..." After a brief pause, Li Shimin continued, "I want to know how she is now, there is no special meaning."
"The old slave understands."
"Just understand." Li Shimin put down his last memorial and threw it aside, saying, "There is no need to let the queen know about this, and don't mention it to anyone."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I must pay attention to it secretly, and no one will know about it." Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, and for some reason, sighed again, through the glass window, the moon outside, and did not speak for a long time.
Eunuch Gao tiptoed out of the hall and called a little eunuch over, "Go to Yang Fei's place and tell me that Yang Fei is here to sleep."
"No." The little eunuch ran away quickly. Eunuch Gao shook his head and said to himself, "Your Majesty can't forget it, Li Mu, Li Mu, sooner or later, just watch!"
...
After several days of intense registration, the list of Li Mu was finally listed as many as a thousand people. This was what Wei Yingluo had chosen. These thousand people were all skilled and had no craftsmanship. Although the Hou Mansion had a large industry, there was no place to support these idle men. Anyone who wanted to make a living was introduced to work on the construction site of Daochidao, which was not wasted.
The remaining thousand people are all considered outstanding people and have some skills. The preliminary screening has ended. From this stage, they will accept Li Mu's personal assessment.
"I am not talking nonsense. Today's assessment content is simple, not simple, difficult, but not difficult." Li Mu stood on the platform, holding the people below, and his voice could be heard in everyone's ears through the amplification. "I am a man who had a dream last night, and the water went to a high place. Today, I will use this topic as a topic. You can work alone or cooperate. Whoever can make a device so that the water can go to a high place will pass. If you choose to cooperate, no more than three people will be allowed. Give you three days, three days later, talk with something, stay what you can do, and leave what you can't do. What materials are needed, just make a list, and someone will prepare it for you and ensure that it won't delay things."
After saying that, Li Mu got off the platform and left, leaving only a thousand craftsmen looking at each other. They didn't understand what Li Mu meant?
People go to high places and water flows to low places, which is an eternal truth. How can water go to high places? There are also some people, they are not skilled craftsmen, they come to learn to learn nothing, what can they do?
The group of people started to chat, wanting Li Mu to come out to explain, even if he gave him a thought, he would be fine. But he was so noisy that he was dry and said, but Li Mu ignored him. Instead, he came out with an imperial guard and shouted, "The Marquis said that the Marquis' Mansion would not raise incompetent people. If you can't do it, go home and have a place for capable people. Time starts from when the Marquis turns around and leaves. If you don't bother to delay your time, please continue to chat here!"
After saying this, the Jinyiwei left. When everyone saw that the noisy did not make any noise, they also wasted their time and lost their noisy interest. Some of them were moved and wanted to stay, they quickly took action, found a corner to write and draw, calculated the needed materials, and asked the Jinyiwei to apply.
Among the crowd, a thin figure seemed so inconspicuous. But if Li Mu was by his side, he would definitely be able to recognize that this inconspicuous boy was the monk Ichikki who should have "studyed" in Ci'en Temple, the young monk Ichikki.
The young monk is no longer a monk. His bald head has hair. Although it is not very long, it cannot be considered bald. His hair was kept after Xuanzang traveled west. After Li Mu built Ci'en Temple, the young monk's "Buddha heart" became messy. He couldn't figure out many things and couldn't figure out many things. He felt ashamed of the Buddha, so he took off his hair, intending to untie the doubts in his heart and then slain it again. His master, Monk Huiri, also agreed, but did not explain the reason. The young monk cried for this. In fact, when he made such a decision, he was a little impulsive and regretted it as soon as he said it. He thought that the master had to stop him, but he didn't expect that the master did not stop him.
The little monk thought in his heart that he was afraid that his master felt that he was not qualified to serve the Buddha, and he cried. He didn't know that his master was due to his identity, and if he could return to secular life, he would naturally support him.
After leaving the temple, the young monk first went to the Honglu Temple to stay with the Japanese mission for a while. Later, he still felt that his inner demon was on Li Mu, so he discussed with his master and wanted to come to Luoyang. The old monk Huiri didn't say anything. He transferred a warrior from the mission to protect him, and the two of them came to Luoyang.
Ikkyu felt even more sad because of this. He felt that he had been abandoned. Therefore, after arriving in Luoyang, he did not find Li Mu at the first time, but kept wandering around Luoyang. During the locust plague, he was in the city. When Li Mu fought with the Heavenly Master, pretending to be a god, he was also in the crowd. He just thought that he was no longer a monk, and was ashamed to see Li Mu, so he kept hiding and refused to come out.
He did not sign up until Li Mu posted a notice. Although he was still young, he was precocious after all. Thinking that he might not be a monk, he would also plan for his future. He admired Li Mu's ability. If he could not be a monk, learn some skills from him and become a useful person when he returned to Japan.
He signed up himself and asked the guard warrior to sign up. Both of them were lucky and passed the first step of screening. The young monk thought in his heart that he was afraid that his master felt that he was not qualified to serve the Buddha. He was sad and then cried. How could he know that his master was because of his identity, and if he could return to secular life, he would naturally support him.
