Li Mu said: "Father, maybe you have overlooked a small issue. We are all standing in our own positions now, thinking about how to invite Master Taizhen into the palace, but what does she think? Is she willing?"
"If she agrees on the surface but is not happy in her heart, even if she enters the palace, she still hesitates. I think we have to work hard to move her with emotion, reason, family and country, and fight together to make Taizhen
The Master cannot refuse the deep affection of my father, so he is willing to do so. Isn't it beautiful?"
Li Longji said in surprise: "Yes, that's it. Even the common people say that a strong-willed melon is not sweet. In the past, when Bao Si entered the palace, he was depressed and unhappy. King You exhausted all the treasures and beautiful objects in the world and could not even get a smile from Bao Si.
I can't underestimate her. Twenty-one, tell me, how can I make Taizhen willing to do it?"
Li Mu had already made a small calculation in his mind, but he didn't expect that his father would be so smart and he would get it right.
Li Mu said: "My father has made a decree to invite Master Taizhen. This is the first floor. Since the child has to go on a trip, he can also ask for advice on singing and dancing. Master Taizhen likes these and will not refuse. In addition, if there are any
Master Taizhen’s parents, brothers, and relatives will gather their blessings and take a three-pronged approach to make this matter a success. I ask my father to make a decision.”
Li Longji thought about it for a moment and felt that Li Mu's method was indeed thoughtful.
Originally, a girl's marriage is inseparable from the approval and blessings of her parents and brothers. With an extra layer of means and an extra guarantee, Master Taizhen will definitely not have any excuses, happily enter the palace, and achieve a beautiful thing, hehe,
That's interesting.
Li Longji said: "Twenty-one, what I said is exactly what I meant. However, Master Taizhen's parents died many years ago, and she grew up with her uncle. Her uncle's family is all in Luoyang, and water far away cannot quench the thirst nearby. What should we do?
"
Li Mu said: "Father is indeed attentive. He has to go to Luoyang for a long time and cannot afford to delay it. However, I heard that Master Taizhen has an older brother named Yang Zhao who is a county lieutenant in Fufeng, which is far away from the capital.
Not far away, if a clan brother shows up, Master Tai Zhen will definitely be surprised."
Playing the family card is the main starting point of Li Mu's thinking.
In addition, Yang Zhao was a compulsive gambler when he was young. He also liked to drink bad wine. He had bad conduct and was despised by his family. After he repented, he went directly to Xichuan to join the army and work in the fields, with excellent results.
Yang Zhao was very good at casino planning, and he was a talented person. So after he settled in the fields, he became good at business calculations and was appreciated by his superiors. Now he has become a county captain in Fufeng.
Sooner or later, Yang Zhao was going to make a fortune. At this time, Li Mu fished him out in advance. This was a great blessing.
In addition, Yang Zhao and Li Linfu were sworn enemies and looked down upon An Lushan the most. The two fought against each other for many years. The main reason was that Yang Zhao had no direction and was attacked from both sides, which finally angered An Lushan.
Now that I, Li Mu, am here to guide and advise Yang Zhao in a timely manner, An Lushan will be disabled even if he is not dead. There is no such thing as the Anshi Rebellion.
Li Mu is making clever arrangements in advance for the national destiny in a few years.
Li Longji liked it and ordered Gao Lishi to immediately investigate and report Yang Zhao's life experience, fame, and positions one by one.
Gao Lishi agreed and hurried to inquire.
After a while, Gao Lishi came back and reported respectfully: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is right. Master Taizhen indeed has a clan brother named Yang Zhao. He grew up with Master Taizhen and got along well with him.
There are many masters who take care of and favor you."
"Oh, okay, tell me about this person's situation." Li Longji's interest increased greatly.
Gao Lishi said: "When he was young, this man also had a playboy style and liked to drink and gamble. But when he was in his twenties, he suddenly woke up and traveled thousands of miles to Xichuan to join the army, where he made great contributions and achieved great results."
"Okay, this is a prodigal son who can't exchange for gold, so continue talking." Li Longji said approvingly.
Gao Lishi continued to report: "Because of his noble birth, outstanding achievements in farming, and good economics, he was promoted to Xindu County Lieutenant. Not long ago, he was transferred to Fufeng County Lieutenant."
Li Longji smiled and said: "It seems that this is God's will. With such a well-behaved and beautiful Taizhen, naturally there are brothers who are constantly making progress and serving the country. Do you think this is God's will?"
Gao Lishi and Li Mu hurriedly agreed.
Li Longji said: "Gao Lishi, immediately convey my order to recruit Yang Zhao to the capital. I want to meet him in person, the sooner the better."
Gao Lishi agreed and immediately drafted the order without mentioning it.
Li Longji turned to Li Mu and said: "Twenty-one, you handle things carefully and are not impatient. After I meet Yang Zhao, I will hand him over to you. How to use him and how to let him give to Master Taizhen?"
Explain the pros and cons, you are responsible for advancing or retreating, don't let me down."
Li Mu said: "Father, please rest assured. With this relationship, I guarantee that Master Taizhen will enter the palace happily. At that time, my father will be happy and the whole world will celebrate."
Li Longji kept nodding, and then asked Li Mu to step back.
Li Mu said: "Father, the big things have been decided. The child has a small matter, please ask for your permission."
Li Longji was in a good mood and naturally did not reject Li Mu's request.
"You say, whatever you want, I will promise you."
Li Mu said: "My child doesn't want anything. These days, besides rehearsing songs and dances for my father, my child is developing lightning rods, and the finished product is already available."
Li Mu said, quickly went outside the palace door, brought in a lightning rod, and gave it to Li Longji with both hands.
Li Longji looked at it carefully several times, but couldn't tell anything good or bad, so he asked: "Twenty-one, can this thing really prevent lightning?"
Li Mu said: "My child dare not lie. This thing seems small and small, but it is not easy to develop it. The effect is absolutely no problem. After the child asks his father for instructions, he can first place it on the top of tall buildings inside and outside the palace."
."
Li Longji nodded and said: "Since what you said is true, I believe it, but the effect is not good, so be careful that I punish you?"
Li Mu said: "Of course, the effect is not good, and I am willing to be punished. However, my father, what I mean is that this kind of invention and creation will be of great benefit to the natural science and technology of the Tang Dynasty for the benefit of the people. Encourage science
Technological innovation and the establishment of a patent office will allow everyone to be more enthusiastic about inventions and vigorously promote creation and invention. The future of Datang is limitless."
Li Longji understood and asked: "Twenty-one, what do you mean, set up a patent office? To reward those who invent and create, you are not trying to change your ways and ask me for money, are you?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Father, you are too worried. I don't want a penny. I want to encourage those who are willing to use their brains, like to ponder, and who are willing to work hard, those strange people, craftsmen, and masters, so that they can work better and better."
Energetic."
"Oh," Li Longji pondered for a moment and said, "This is a good idea. All those who have the ability should take action and engage in more inventions and creations to improve the production and economic capabilities of our Datang. It is really insightful."
Li Mu said: "Father is absolutely right, and this is what I mean."
Li Longji said: "I will raise this matter at the court meeting later and let the six corresponding departments study and formulate rules. Twenty-one, you can rest assured that if you boldly develop something useful to the country, I will not
Let you suffer a loss."
"Thank you, father. I have nothing else to do. Please leave first."
Li Mu said goodbye and came out. Seeing that Li Linfu had not left, the chariots, horses and servants were waiting a hundred steps away.
Li Linfu stood alone by the car, looking up at the sky, feeling very bright.
Li Mu walked a few steps quickly and arrived in front of Li Linfu. Li Mu said, "Li Xiang, you haven't left yet? Who are you waiting for? Is Li Xiang in a good mood?"
As soon as Li Linfu saw Li Mu, he smiled all over his face and hurriedly saluted and said: "Who else can I wait for, this old minister? After leaving the hall, who else is worthy of waiting for me, but His Highness the Prince!"
Li Mu pretended to be shocked and said: "Is Mr. Li waiting for me? This is so embarrassing. Li Mu cannot afford Mr. Li's praise. Mr. Li, do you want to talk about the second young master?"
Li Xiang kept nodding his head and said: "His Royal Highness, apart from Your Majesty and the Crown Prince, only Your Highness the Prince has convinced me. Not only is Jia'er awake, he can eat porridge and soup today. Do you think I can be unhappy?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "This is Li Xiangji's star shining brightly. God bless, Li Mu will definitely come to congratulate the second young master on this great day."
Li Linfu said: "It's okay if you don't come. If you don't come then, I will go and invite you personally. Your Highness, your kindness to my Li family will never be forgotten by me. You are welcome at the Prime Minister's Palace at any time."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Li Xiang loves the country and the people, and works hard. Good people are rewarded. In addition, Hua Yidao's medical skills are amazing, and Li Mu's little achievements are not worth mentioning."
Li Mu flattered Li Linfu with his mouth, but he said in his heart, Li Linfu, you old guy, you are domineering. I have just given you another deadly opponent. From now on, I, the prince, will sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers, watching you fight to the death. This chapter has been completed!
