Chapter 76: Your Majesty's Private Matters, Do What You Like
Li Mu slept until dawn. When he opened his eyes, it was already past midnight and his head felt dizzy.
The seemingly bland rice wine dissipates slowly after drinking too much. When I get up and walk a few steps, I still feel top-heavy.
Four personal maids helped Li Mu wash and change clothes with smiles.
Xiao Chunzi approached Li Mu and said, "Mr. Li is outside and has been waiting for a while. Has the master seen you?"
Li Mu said: "Of course I'll see you, please come in quickly, Mr. Li." Li Bai must not be happy if he didn't get up on time to practice the sword today.
Soon, Li Bai came in, Xiao Chunzi and Xiao Huzi hurriedly ran away, and the four maids also exited respectfully.
Li Mu pulled Li Bai casually and said, "Xiao Bai, sit down. I drank too much last night. I just got up and delayed my sword practice. Do you want to scold Xiao Bai? It's my fault today."
Li Bai said calmly: "Whether you practice sword practice or not depends entirely on His Highness's pleasure. What does it have to do with me? I'm just here to report the accounts and make sure the money transactions are clear."
Li Mu was a little confused and said: "What account? Did Xiaobai drink too much last night? I heard that you drank all the wine bottles? Is Xiaobai angry with me?"
Li Bai said: "Li Bai no longer remembers what happened last night. Drinking is just for getting drunk. Getting drunk can relieve a thousand worries. There is nothing to say?"
"What about writing poetry? Xiaobai, do you remember? We wrote poetry together last night? It was very interesting?" Li Mu asked deliberately.
Li Bai frowned, "Why write poetry? Is there any? I don't remember anything."
Li Mu snickered in his heart, remembering that he pranked Li Bai last night, Li Bai must have left a serious psychological shadow, and he didn't even want to mention his favorite poem writing at this time.
Li Mu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, it's best if I don't remember. It's just a joke with Xiaobai because of the twenty-one days. Xiaobai doesn't need to worry about it. Let's have a cup of tea."
Li Mu took the initiative to pour tea for Li Bai. I heard from the little eunuch that Li Bai was extremely drunk last night. Unexpectedly, he woke up early in the morning and his self-control ability was really strong.
Your mouth should be dry at this time.
Li Bai said: "There is no need to drink tea. Your Highness gave Li Bai five hundred taels of silver notes and three hundred taels for Aunt Gongsun to build a yard behind Yanjing Lane, more than a mile away, by the Feng River. It is very quiet.
The remaining two hundred taels will be reserved for living expenses and medical expenses."
Li Mu was startled, and immediately said: "Xiaobai, this matter was handled properly. I was worried that Yanjing Lane was not safe. You moved your sweetheart so quickly? Very good, very good."
Li Bai said: "Your Highness, don't talk nonsense. I am just following orders. I will not see her again in the future."
Li Mu said: "Why is this necessary? I even bought the house for others. From now on, it will be Xiaobai's private residence. Secretly raising a mistress outside, the red flag at home does not fall, and the colorful flags flutter outside, that is a real man. Look at you.
The way you shrink your hands and feet."
Li Bai didn't know if he understood, but his face immediately turned ugly.
Li Bai suddenly stood up and said angrily: "Twenty-one, can such words be joked? Saving people is saving people. If a man takes advantage of others' danger, can he still be considered a man?"
Li Mu asked puzzledly: "What do you mean by taking advantage of someone else's situation? Aunt Gongsun is not out of love. She was dumped by someone else, so you took advantage of her? She is pure and pure, she has no ex, she just likes you, you have a wife, and everyone else
I don’t care, Xiaobai, what do you mean? Do you want to go off and leave? Isn’t this really what men do?”
Li Mu didn't care how arrogant and arrogant Li Bai was, he just threw a lot of nonsense at Li Bai from people in society. Early in the morning, he didn't know what he was talking about.
Li Bai blew his beard and stared angrily, opened his mouth several times, and wanted to say a few unpleasant words, but finally did not say anything, and angrily said: "Unreasonable." He walked away with a puff of his sleeves.
Xiao Bai was confused! Li Mu chuckled and watched Li Bai stride out of his sight.
After a while, His Majesty the Emperor's oral message arrived.
Li Mu Shiran walked into the main hall and saw Li Linfu and Li Heng in the main hall again. Li Mu felt that it was boring. It was still the same old thing. Isn't there a newcomer?
Facing the two of them all day long is not boring for Dad.
Little did Li Mu know that just now, two newcomers and two old guys had confused Li Longji.
When Li Linfu heard that Li Mu was coming, he turned around quickly and waved to Li Mu with a smile. Li Mu approached Li Linfu and whispered: "Li Xiang is so happy, the second young master must be well?"
Li Linfu said: "Let's talk about Quanzi later. Your Highness will soon meet His Majesty and the Crown Prince."
Li Linfu felt that Li Mu was his own, while Li Longji and Li Heng were outsiders.
Li Mu hurriedly saluted Li Longji, and then also saluted Li Heng.
Li Longji did not give Li Mu a warm face, but was unexpectedly cold.
Li Longji said: "On the 21st, I have announced that you will come here today. I don't want you to speak. You just listen. As promised, from now on, you are forbidden to speak."
"Ah?" Li Mu was shocked. Just as he was about to ask a question, he hurriedly covered his mouth and couldn't speak. Li Mu felt uncomfortable holding it in.
Li Linfu and Li Heng didn't know what was going on. They both looked at Li Mu in confusion, wondering what trouble Li Mu had gotten into. They were not allowed to speak once they arrived.
Li Longji looked at Li Linfu and said, "Master Li, continue the topic just now."
Li Linfu agreed and said: "Since the two veterans will definitely unite some officials to attack His Majesty, Your Majesty should have been prepared in advance."
Li Longji asked: "Are we going to divide into two factions, confront each other tit for tat in the court, make nonsense, and finally make the commotion known to the whole world?"
Li Linfu said calmly: "Your Majesty, this is not the case. In the eyes of the ministers, worshiping heaven and ancestors is a public matter and can be made public. However, Your Majesty invites Master Taizhen into the palace by the way. It has nothing to do with the ministers. This is His Majesty's family matter. It is
Your Majesty, you can do whatever you like with your private affairs. If anyone dares to obstruct or criticize you, you should be judged decisively."
Li Longji was shocked. He looked at Li Linfu and then at Li Mu.
Li Longji thought of this sentence. Li Mu said it plausibly in the carriage yesterday evening. Now Li Linfu said the same thing? Could it be that the two of them had colluded long ago? They were talking about themselves behind their backs?
Li Longji's expression immediately changed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Master Li, have you said this to Twenty-One? You have been talking about me behind my back for a long time?"
Li Linfu was horrified and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The humble minister has been wronged, why did your majesty say this? When did the twenty-first prince and I conspire to make unreasonable remarks against your majesty? This is a huge crime?"
Li Longji asked: "Are you sure you haven't discussed it in advance? Why do you think what you said comes from one person's mouth?"
Li Linfu looked at Li Mu in surprise. Li Mu opened his mouth wide and wanted to explain, but he didn't dare to speak.
Li Longji looked at the strange expressions of the two people and was relieved for a moment, realizing that the two people were not colluding at all, but expressed the same point of view.
This statement made Li Longji like it very much. If anyone blocks my private affairs again, don't blame me for killing!
Li Longji was pleasantly surprised. He let Li Linfu go, looked at Li Heng, and asked: "Li Heng, you are the prince, why don't you say a word? What are you thinking?"
Li Heng hurriedly replied: "What my father thinks, my sons and ministers will think. What my father said and did is absolutely correct."
Li Heng didn't even dare to agree with Li Linfu's statement, for fear of getting burned.
Li Longji asked in vain and snorted coldly, "This Li Heng is just a microphone that follows everyone else's opinions. He has no opinions of his own at all. At critical times, he can only be a grassroots, and he will fall to whichever side the wind is strong."
Li Longji asked: "Master Li, since you said it, this is my family matter. How to act should be done in a reasonable and reasonable manner. What are your ideas? Tell me."
Li Linfu was speechless for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, please allow Wei Chen to think for a moment and come up with a good way to get the best of both worlds. Your Majesty, the twenty-first prince is always full of ideas. Why don't you please listen to the prince's idea?"
Li Longji had long believed in what Li Mu said yesterday, and since Li Mu was not as bold and forthright as yesterday, he would still be hesitant for a long time.
Li Mu woke up the dreamer with just one word, but Li Longji had his own plan. The more capable Li Mu was, the more Li Longji would keep beating him.
Li Longji said: "He is an ignorant child. If he has any good ideas, speaks without measure, and contradicts his elders, he should be silenced for a longer time."
Li Linfu laughed and said: "Your Majesty, Prince Li Mu is not an ignorant child. Although he doesn't understand anything about court affairs, he is very sophisticated and sophisticated in dealing with people. The key is that Prince Li Mu has a filial heart.
, Your Majesty must not blame him wrongly."
Li Linfu is now Li Mu's blower. He wants to blow Li Mu to the sky, especially with Li Heng present, trying to please Li Longji and attack Li Heng. Li Linfu finally feels that he is holding a magic weapon in his hand. This chapter has been completed!
