Chapter 142 The Queen's Plan

Empress Changsun laughed silently. She didn't expect that Li Shimin was stunned for an hour and was thinking about how to deal with Li Mu. Fortunately, Eunuch Gao was so worried. If he knew the truth, he would not know what he would think. Moreover, she was a little surprised that Li Shimin would care about such things. He was the emperor. When did he spend so much effort to fight against his ministers?

But no matter what, this matter still needs to be resolved. Otherwise, according to Li Shimin's personality, he would not be able to sleep tonight.

Empress Changsun asked, "I wonder what your Majesty thinks is that he is angry?"

"Um..." Li Shimin thought for a long time and said, "Unless that boy admits his mistake, I can't get angry!" As he said, Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun with a gaze and said, "Wugu, you have always been full of wisdom and tricks. You will definitely come up with a solution, right? Come and think of an idea for me, I must win this kid!"

Empress Changsun thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, although I can't let Li Mu admit his mistake, I can let him come out of the prison. I wonder if this is considered venting his anger for Your Majesty?"

"Take it seriously?" Li Shimin grabbed Empress Changsun's hand and said excitedly: "If the queen can let him come out of the prison, it will be anger for me. I have something to say to him first. If I admit my mistake, I will let him come out. He said that he would rather live in the prison than admit his mistake. If he comes out of the prison, it would be equivalent to him admitting his mistake, so he would naturally be anger for me! Queen, don't slander me, there is really such a way? Li Mu is very stubborn and tricky. The general method may not work!"

Empress Changsun smiled confidently and said, "Your Majesty, just don't worry. This method is absolutely effective." Empress Changsun approached Li Shimin's ear and said a few words softly. After hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on her face and she stroked her palms and said, "The Queen's brilliant plan! In this way, let's see how long that kid can last!"

After being proud, Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun and said, "Empress, how did you come up with this method?"

Empress Changsun glanced at him and said, "Have you forgotten what happened to me when you and I just completed my family?" As she said, Empress Changsun's tone became resentful and said, "When I got married to you, Your Majesty was thinking about Mrs. Mudan, and he was reluctant to complete the family with me. What else did you say, just treat me as brothers and sisters. Later, I couldn't resist the pressure from my father and uncle and got my family together. Now, I stayed in my room every night. Later, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I helped Your Majesty take two concubines..."

Empress Changsun wanted to continue saying that Li Shimin had already blushed and could not bear it anymore. He quickly reached out to cover Empress Changsun's mouth and said, "Empress, why do you want to bring up old things? Now I only have the queen in my heart, and there is no one else!"

Empress Changsun avoided Li Shimin's hand, but fell into his arms. She glanced at him angrily and said, "No wonder Li Mu said that Your Majesty is lying. Your Majesty is indeed accustomed to lie. What did Your Majesty treat Concubine Yang and the others as?"

"Oh, Queen, don't make things difficult for me..."

As he was talking, Eunuch Gao broke in from outside the hall. Seeing the emperor and empress hugging each other, he quickly turned around and said, "Your Majesty, I am definitely not intending to peep..."

Empress Changsun quickly broke free from Li Shimin's arms and stood beside her with a red face. Li Shimin glared at Eunuch Gao in dissatisfaction and said, "What's the matter? Tell me!"

Eunuch Gao then turned around, bowed his body, looked at the ground, and did not dare to look up, saying, "Your Majesty, news came from the Dali Temple. It said that Zhulu Hou made his own requests, first he wanted a bed, a quilt, and then he said that he wanted meat soup when he was hungry, and he wanted to take a bath... Many difficulties. Dali Temple is a solemn place, and it is really inappropriate to act so ridiculously. Therefore, Sun Fujia asked Your Majesty that if he could not convict, it would be better to release Zhulu Hou..."

Eunuch Gao said, his heart trembling. Li Shimin had been angry just now, and this news was a little bit worse. It seemed that Long Yan was about to be furious.

But to his surprise, Li Shimin was not angry. He looked at Empress Changsun and said, "Transfer the message to Sun Fujia, but people cannot let him go. Give him whatever he wants, and try to satisfy him. The only thing is that he cannot let him meet his wives and concubines. You can send the message, and let others replace him. In addition, remember that people cannot let him go, but if he wants to go out, he can let him go out. As long as he says, just write a memorial to apologize."

"This..." Eunuch Gao was stunned. He had been following Li Shimin for so long, but today he was very open. But he didn't say much, and he responded and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute, I'm hungry, let's pass on the meal!"

"No!" Eunuch Gao responded happily, and thought to himself that it was still a couple, and he knew how to persuade him.

Seeing Eunuch Gao go out, Li Shimin immediately said: "The queen is a clever plan, and she can do everything. If the queen doesn't give me any advice, Li Mu will succeed! He must have never expected that the queen has seen him through it. Now I am beginning to look forward to him, and he has written me the expression when he apologized, hahahaha!"

Dali Temple.

Sun Fujia pulled the little eunuch who was passing the oral order and confirmed it over and over again. He made the little eunuch impatient and said coldly: "Sun Shaoqing, can you be the back of your ears? Our family has said it six times, but you haven't heard it clearly yet? It's not a joke about our family, right? Although our family is not a person, it is also called the eunuch Gao, the eunuch who calls me grandpa, is not a bed bug that lets others gulp. If you do this again, our family will turn against you!"

Hearing this, Sun Fujia gave up and took out a string of copper coins from his sleeve and handed them over, saying, "My father-in-law has misunderstood. I have no intention of playing with my father-in-law. Please accept this little money with a smile."

When he saw the money, the little eunuch suddenly smiled and was completely angry. He happily said goodbye and returned to the palace.

Sun Fujia sighed to the sky. He never expected that he would encounter such a thing and get such a decree when he was an official in Dali Temple. What is this?

It's ridiculous!

Before he could sigh, the prison head ran over with a bag on his forehead. Sun Fujia looked at him and said, "What's wrong with you? Where did you hit him? Why are you so careless?"

The prison head cried and said, "Sir, can you think of a way to invite these two masters away? We really can't serve you. I didn't know that the sentence was wrong just now. He didn't reach out to hit someone when he got angry. He just let that big guy bullet make me crazy. Look, I made such a big bag! It hurts!"

“…”

Sun Fujia sighed to the sky again.

After sighing, Sun Fujia said, "I can't send you away. Your Majesty has just sent someone to pass on the oral order. Let us serve you well and give you whatever you want. But people cannot let you go, so you can only wait for him to write a memorial and leave by yourself. Before that, you have to endure anything."

When the prison chief heard this, he was stunned and said, "Sir, have you heard it wrong? How could Your Majesty issue such a decree?"

"You ask me?" Sun Fujia said angrily: "How do I know!"

As the two were talking, Si Zhi at the door came forward and said, "Sir Shaoqing, a family member who claimed to be Zhuluhou has been found, saying that he is going to visit the prison."

Sun Fujia quickly asked, "Can there be any wives and concubines of Zhuluhou?"

Si Zhi replied: "It is Zhulu Hou's wife and concubine."

"Tell them that they can keep all the things they bring, but they cannot meet. If you have any words, you can help tell me. You can also invite others to come to see you. Only Zhulu Hou’s wives and concubines cannot visit prison. If you ask why, just say it is an imperial edict. Don’t talk too much, say too much or make mistakes!"

Si Zhi took the order and left.

Sun Fujia held his forehead with his hand and said to the prison head: "You should support me first, I will rest for a while, and I can't stand it anymore and call me."

The prison leader left, and Sun Fujia also returned to his duty room.

Outside Dali Temple, Bai Qiaoqiao suddenly panicked after hearing Si Zhi's words. However, Si Zhi didn't answer anything he asked. He cried so anxiously and lost his mind. Li Zhien comforted him next to him, but Bai Qiaoqiao couldn't listen, but just cried and choked and said, "Last time, my husband made a mistake, and he asked to meet him. Why didn't he let him meet this time? Did the husband offend His Majesty so hard that he really wanted to kill his husband? What should I do?"

Li Zhien was also restless, but it was still a little better than Bai Qiaoqiao. She carefully recalled what Si Zhi said just now, and noticed something, and said, "Madam, don't cry first. I think this matter should not be that serious."

"Isn't it serious yet?"

Li Zhien shook his head and said, "Madam, the Si Zhi said just now that everything else is OK except for not letting us meet. Think about it, isn't it very strange? We can get a little bit of what we bring, or pass on messages, or even let others meet with our husbands. If Your Majesty wants to kill his husband, it will not be too much."

When Bai Qiaoqiao heard this, she gradually stopped crying and asked, "Why did Your Majesty issue such a decree?"

"I don't know either...but it's okay, I'll ask someone to ask my husband, I'll know." As he said that, Li Zhien called Li Si who came with him. Li Si was one of the ten guards of Zhulu Marquis' Mansion, and was a young and strong man selected by Li Mu from the Jiaofangsi. After asking Wang Hu for help in training, he became the guard of Zhulu Marquis' Mansion. According to his age, he was named Li Yi to Li Shi by Li Mu. Among them, Li Yi to Li Si and Li Chongyi protected Li Mu's safety.

When Li Mu was arrested today, only Li Chongyi followed him into the cell. The other four went home to report the news at Li Chongyi's instructions.

Li Si is the one who follows Li Mu the most beside him, except for Li Chongyi. He is also smart, so he will be more accurate to let him meet Li Mu.
