Chapter 496

This made Li Shimin's heart feel gritted, and he gritted his teeth: "Damn the aristocratic family, I will make them look good one day!"

"Uh..." Li Mu licked his lips, suppressed his laughter, and said leisurely: "Your Majesty, if you are willing to rectify the family, I have an immature suggestion."

Li Shimin recognized Li Mu for more than a day or two. When he heard him talking like this, he instinctively felt that there was something wrong. He glanced at him suspiciously and said, "Are you holding up bad ideas again?"

"How dare I!" Li Mu quickly denied it, and another flattery was sent to him, saying, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, far away from the ancients. How can I hide my little act from Your Majesty's eyes?"

Li Shimin smiled and said, "You little brat, now you are becoming more and more like a slander. You are still praising me. Please save yourself some thoughts. If others brag about me, I might believe it a little. You kid doesn't have a truth in your mouth, and I don't believe it. What are your suggestions? Let me listen."

Seeing that Li Shimin was moved, Li Mu suddenly felt energetic and said, "Your Majesty, I am talking about it first. My idea is entirely for Your Majesty's consideration. I must not tell you this time. I was not afraid of making small fuss in the past, but this time, if I touched the foundation of the family, I might not be sure to have a lifelong life."

Li Shimin's face turned red and said, "I have already reflected on it. Don't worry, I will never tell you again."

"This is my idea..."

Li Mu came to Li Shimin's ear and whispered. The more Li Shimin heard it, he became more and more shocked. After hearing it, he took a breath and looked at Li Mu in horror, saying, "This is a bit too cruel, right? If it is seen through, they will rebel!"

"Oh, Your Majesty!" Li Mu said anxiously: "Think about it, will they still have the capital to rebel when they see through that day?"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, nodded as if he suddenly realized, and then started to laugh.

Li Mu also laughed loudly, and the two laughed like two big fools, which attracted the frequent glances of passers-by. Queen Changsun turned around and looked at him. Seeing Wang Ou's eyes also turned over, she felt a little fond of love. Does this woman still have any thoughts about Your Majesty?

But after careful identification, Empress Changsun discovered that the focus of Wang Ou's eyes was not actually Li Shimin, but Li Mu. What a smart person she was, and she was also a woman. Her terrible intuition immediately made her understand something.

Empress Changsun was startled by her thoughts!

Wang Ou and Li Mu? How is this possible?! The two are fifteen years apart. When Wang Ou got married, Li Mu was just born!

But Wang Ou's eyes are also unscathing. This is not the eyes of the elders looking at the younger generation, but the eyes of the wife looking at her husband, with a kind of tame and worship from the heart.

Empress Changsun's eyes froze and suddenly asked: "Sister Ou, what do you think of Li Mu?"

Wang Ou did not notice that Empress Changsun had seen the clues, and reluctantly withdrew her gaze and smiled: "Li Mu, this child, has the best literary talent and ability. As long as he wants to do, there is nothing he can't do well. Let's talk about this calligraphy. He only visited Mr. Ouyang once and got the essence of regular script. The characters he wrote were like those who have been immersed in ** for decades, with great force. And his poems, from my perspective, there should be no one in our Tang Dynasty. The queen doesn't know yet, but Li Mu had a new work just now, which was a new lyric written by Emperor Yang's water tune. I chant with you..."

It's true that I'm deeply trapped in it!

Seeing Wang Ou mention Li Mu, she praised him endlessly. The more she spoke, the brighter her eyes became, as if she wanted everyone in the world to know how good this person was, Queen Changsun knew. She also had a lot of emotion in her heart. She recalled that back then, Wang Ou was the most famous talent among her peers, and many young heroes with five surnames and seven hopes were fascinated by her style. After learning that she married the sick son of Cui in Qinghe, many young people were heartbroken. Such a fairy-like person actually liked a child who was fifteen years younger than her. The feelings in the world were really hard to understand.

Empress Changsun is an enlightened person. She did not think this relationship was shameful, but was full of blessings. She knew how difficult it would be for a woman to be widowed for 17 years. If Wang Ou could have a good home, she would be happy, but she didn't expect that this person would be Li Mu.

If it is someone else, it is easy to deal with. But Li Mu is difficult to deal with. No one knows better than Empress Changsun, Li Shimin's thoughts about Wang Ou in his heart, which is a first love that contains guilt and regret. Because of such a complex emotion, Li Shimin has maintained restraint and has not used his supreme power to force Wang Ou.

But if Wang Ou finally followed Li Mu, Li Shimin would immediately feel humiliated! He would absolutely not bear it. He had always loved and regarded as a goddess, but in the end he did not choose him, but his nephew. By then, the relationship between the monarch and the minister would definitely break down.

Li Mu is an unusual person and the talent of Li Mu is also the one whom Empress Changsun has been to see in her life. Many times, Empress Changsun even couldn't help but think deeply. If Li Mu had been born twenty years ago, he would definitely have done something in that era when heroes emerged. There were so many magical things that happened to him. He not only dared to do them, but also could do them all.

A young man with rootless duckweed came to Chang'an for ten months and achieved an equal position as a hero from the dragon. He started from scratch, earned nearly one million yuan, and read all history books. This is something that has never happened before!

If it were because of a woman who alienated such a talented talent, Empress Changsun thought it would be unprofitable, but emotional matters were the most unreasonable thing to judge. At that time, she would not have the confidence that Li Shimin could control herself. Moreover, even if Li Shimin restrained herself, what would Li Mu think in his heart? Will he still be loyal to him like now?

It's probably unknown.

Thinking of this, Empress Changsun sighed.

Wang Ou was still praising Li Mu, and suddenly heard a sigh, thinking that it was Empress Changsun who was dissatisfied with Li Mu, and couldn't help looking at her, slightly unhappy.

Empress Changsun came over and saw Wang Ou like this, and smiled and said, "Sister Ou is right. Li Mu is indeed a talented person. I just thought just now that my son is not as good as Li Mu, so I sighed."

After hearing Empress Changsun’s explanation, Wang Ou’s brows stretched out and said, “After all, the prince is young, and those who are close to the red and those who are close to the black are black. Didn’t Your Majesty ask Li Mu to teach the prince? I believe that under Li Mu’s guidance, the prince will definitely make progress.”

Empress Changsun nodded and agreed, as if she had broken the severity.

At this time, Li Shimin and Li Mu also came over, and Empress Changsun asked, "What are you talking about? Have you stood there for so long?"

"I talked about some things in the court." The family mattered, how could Li Shimin say casually in front of Wang Ou, and turned around and said: "The Pingkangfang has come to an end, the Queen is about the time. Let's go to my father's place to sit for a while, and we will almost return to the palace. We will have to have fun with the people at Chengtianmen tomorrow, and we have to go back and make some preparations."

Li Mu didn't know about this and asked, "Your Majesty, will there be activities in Chengtianmen tomorrow?"

Li Shimin frowned and said, "You don't know this? Every year on the Lantern Festival, I and the Queen will meet the people at Chengtian Gate and have three riddles. The first one to guess will be rewarded."

"Ah, lantern riddle!" Li Mu finally remembered this traditional custom and was very excited. Seeing his appearance, Li Shimin immediately said, "The reward is not much, you are not allowed to guess!"

Li Mu suddenly cried out: "Your Majesty is unreasonable again!"

"I'm unreasonable with you! I'm having fun with the people, what are you involved in? I want to guess riddles, and play by myself!" After that, Li Shimin glanced at Wang Ou, threw a affectionate look, and took the queen into the carriage. Eunuch Gao sat on the shaft, took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and handed it to Li Zhien, and said with a little pain: "I'm congratulating the second lady, my family will accompany His Majesty tomorrow, and I'm afraid I can't come to the door to have a wedding wine, so I'll give the gift first!"

Li Mu took the brocade box from Li Zhien, opened it, closed it with a smile, and said, "How can you be so embarrassed? Eunuch Gao, we are friends, and we are dating love. If you insult our friendship with such a vulgar thing, I'm going to be angry!"

"Oh," Eunuch Gao sighed and said, "Don't joke, Marquis, our family has never produced such a large amount of blood in their life, and they still feel so distressed now, so don't say it."

Li Shimin couldn't bear to listen anymore, so he lifted the curtain and said, "Li Mu, you can stop at it! It's not easy to do a high-ranking job, and you don't need him the money. What are you doing!"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Your Majesty, I'm not thinking about it. It's useless for Eunuch Gao to keep money. He...you know,"

"It's becoming more and more distorted!" Li Shimin lowered the curtain and said, "High-ranking officials, don't worry about this unreasonable person when they leave."

Eunuch Gao threw the whip off the carriage and left the gate. Li Mu returned the brocade box to Li Zhien. Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at the things in the box and saw that it was a set of exquisite jewelry. A gold hairpin, two pairs of earrings, a pair of bracelets, and a gold chain. They were all inlaid with gems, which could be seen as the work of a great craftsman of the palace.

After Li Mu made money, Bai Qiaoqiao also bought some jewelry in the East Market, and he still knew the approximate price. This set of jewelry must be at least thousands of stagnant. Eunuch Gao said it hard and did not lie.

Li Mu came and went to give him money, which was almost the same number. He took it back this time, maybe he had a little bit of it, and it must have hurt. Li Mu saw Bai Qiaoqiao's gaze and said, "Madam likes it? If you like it, I'll chase him and ask him for another trick!"

Bai Qiaoqiao quickly shook her head and said, "Husband, don't mess around. We are not without money. If I like it, just take the gold and find a craftsman to do it. Don't make things difficult for Eunuch Gao, he is very good to our family."

"You are just so kind."

Li Mu stretched out his waist, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and said, "It's getting late, so let's go back to bed too. I have to get up early tomorrow!"

Bai Qiaoqiao said strangely: "Why get up early? Wouldn't you marry Zhien tomorrow?"

"Yes, I'm just preparing to get married!"
