"Please tell me clearly who kidnapped and who kidnapped?"

The question was Wei Zheng. He was a third-rank official and was closer to Li Shimin. Li Shimin glanced at him and thought, what is this old guy going to do? He couldn't guess that it was Li Mu, and he had to make it clear.

Suddenly, Li Shimin was so happy that he understood what Wei Zheng meant. Now, the person who is most suitable to deal with this matter is Li Mu, but Li Mu just went to Luoyang and recalled it was a bit inappropriate. It happened that he caused trouble there. He recalled it and asked for guilt and solved it by the way. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

But then he thought again, if this matter is really handled like this, the emperor's orders will change every day, wouldn't it be a joke?

Um...

Li Shimin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a solution. If you don’t recall it and ask for the crime, will it be over to call it back and watch the ceremony? Thinking of this, Li Shimin said calmly: "It’s nothing big. Li Mu just arrived in Luoyang and had a little friction with Shouyang Hou. It just so happened that the coronation ceremony of Tian Khan was approaching. I plan to recall them. They are not outsiders. Just adjust the conflicts."

Shouyang Hou?

When everyone heard this name, a question mark appeared in their heads. Although Dou Ren was Li Shimin's uncle, he really had no sense of existence. Wei Zheng knew about this person. The Censorate had collected gossip about him, but because he was Li Shimin's uncle, and the previous firepower of the Censorate was mainly aimed at Li Mu, so he had never mentioned it. Now, he actually felt that if the Marquis of Shouyang and Li Mu had a conflict, the person who was wrong should be Shouyang instead of Li Mu. Although Li Mu was a little arrogant and domineering, he had never done the things that Shouyang Marquis did.

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng stood up again and said, "Your Majesty, I have a memorial to impeachment about Shouyang Hou."

"Okay, Wei Aiqing." Li Shimin interrupted Wei Zheng and said, "The right and wrong are right and wrong. When they arrive in Chang'an, they will be clear. I will leave this matter to you to investigate." After that, before Wei Zheng could say anything, he said, "I haven't decided on the matter of Tubo's request for marriage. I will tell the Tubo prince that I will give him a reply in a few days."

"Retreat the court." Eunuch Gao shouted sharply, and all officials gave him respectfully. Li Shimin strided and left Liangyi Hall.

On the way back to Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin asked Eunuch Gao and said, "What is Li Mu's fault? The conflict with Shouyang Marquis? He wouldn't have arrived in Luoyang. He knew that Shouyang Marquis was my uncle, so he would have caused trouble for him?"

"This..." Eunuch Gao didn't know how to explain it. The actual situation was really similar to Li Shimin's guess. Eunuch Gao thought about it for a while and said carefully: "Your Majesty, this is the case. After Li Mu arrived in Luoyang, he wanted to buy a mansion to settle, but no one was willing to sell it to him, and no one visited him, so he hung up his anger. Li Mu was not happy, and you also know his temper, so he asked someone to vent his anger."

"Take anger?" Li Shimin frowned; "So, is he still looking for my uncle?"

"Maybe it's not," said Gao, "The gathered gossip. It is said that he wanted to find the most arrogant person in Luoyang. The behavior of Shouyang Hou in daily life has some meaning. Li Mu then came to him. It shouldn't be because of his relationship with His Majesty. If it were someone else, it should be the same. When did Li Mu take whose identity seriously?"

Li Shimin glanced at Eunuch Gao and said, "I heard what you mean, it seems to be admiring him."

"I don't dare."

"There is nothing to dare or not. Li Mu does have the ability to be praised." Li Shimin sighed and asked again: "Is my uncle really that bad in his daily behavior?"

"This..." Eunuch Gao said carefully: "The old slave dares not criticize it, but according to the news I received, although there is no big evil, it is a bit unbearable. There are all cases of extravagance and extravagance. Moreover, due to his royal relative's identity, it is true that no one dares to mess with it."

"Haha," Li Shimin sneered and said, "A person who pretends to be a tiger's power cannot be exempted from the moment."

Eunuch Gao couldn't guess Li Shimin's thoughts and did not respond.

"Transfer my oral orders and ask Zongzheng Temple to check the royal relatives who are in residence. I need to know how everyone is virtue. Those who are too naughty are too naughty." Li Shimin paused and said: "As for the discretion, those who violate national laws will be reduced to their titles and robbed their titles and deprived them of the titles and deposed them to common people, and they must not be favored!"

Just as Eunuch Gao was about to persuade him, Li Shimin added: "Leave this matter to the prince!"

Hearing this sentence, Eunuch Gao immediately held back when he got to his mouth. If this was the emperor's way of training the prince, he, a eunuch, would be wrong to say anything. Suddenly, he remembered Li Chengqian's current situation and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, if you summon the prince back now, it would be a little trouble?"

Li Shimin said strangely, "What trouble?" Suddenly, he remembered that he hadn't seen his son for a long time, so he stopped and asked, "You just said that I remembered what the prince has done recently? Why does it seem like I haven't heard from him for a long time?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the prince is still in the Urban Management Brigade. He has been promoted to the captain of the team for his merits and is in charge of the public security of Yifang. The assessment and evaluation for three consecutive months are of top quality and full of energy."

"Are you still a city manager?" Li Shimin frowned and said, "Is this kid addicted to being an urban manager? Have you stopped being a prince? Where is his schoolwork? Have you completed it?"

"They were all done well. In order not to delay the urban management affairs, the prince read at night every day. The masters didn't say anything and couldn't find any problems, so he tacitly agreed to him."

Li Shimin was speechless, thinking for a long time, and said, "What's going on? I asked him to study hard, but he never listened. Now, in order to be an urban management officer, he took the initiative to study. What kind of ecstasy has Li Mu given him to him? He just convinced him. Let's tell him that since his schoolwork is done well, I will give him a vacation and don't have to study for the time being. Use the study time to sort out the affairs of Zongzheng Temple. If he likes to do it on the urban management office, he can continue to do it."

"Your Majesty is wise."

"What's the wise thing? I don't even care about my own son." Li Shimin shook his head and stepped into the Tai Chi Hall. Eunuch Gao stayed outside the door, closed the door carefully, and arranged for someone to go and pass it on according to Li Shimin's instructions.

...

Luoyang City.

Li Mu asked Dou Ren to write an invitation to invite the top figures in Luoyang City. Some people gave face, some people did not give face, and they did not refuse, but people did not come. Luoyang City suddenly divided three kinds of opinions. One was a pro-Li Mu, such people were mainly nobles and ordinary businessmen, and the other was far away from Li Mu. Such people were mainly aristocratic families, and the other was indifferent and unresponsible. Such people were all on either side, and the business they did was rarely affected by external conditions. It was believed that Li Mu's attitude towards them was not much influence.

After the banquet, Li Mu came out of Dou Ren's mansion and went directly to Luoyang County Government.

The county magistrate named Lu was beaten to a bruised face by Li Mu, and all of his family and yamen runners were cleared out. The Luoyang County yamen was robbed by robbers. Except for the house, the others were demolished. Together with the unlucky county magistrate, they were thrown on the street by Li Mu.

At the same time, a notice was posted at the county government office. The Luoyang County Magistrate, appointed by the imperial court, has been dismissed.

Luoyang is the capital, and the magistrate of Luoyang County. Like the magistrate of Chang'an County, they are both fifth-rank official positions, but not comparable to those of the seventh-rank county magistrate like Mayi. The fifth-rank official position is also the rank of the doctor of the six ministries. How can it be easily dismissed? But in Luoyang, such a thing happened. Li Mu even unilaterally announced the appointment and removal of a fifth-rank county magistrate without passing the impeachment of the Ministry of Personnel.

It is reported that when the Lu County Magistrate heard about this, he vomited three liters of blood in the street and vowed not to avenge this revenge and was unfamiliar with Li Mu.

No one cared about what the Lu County Magistrate said. Although he was a fifth-rank official, he was just a county magistrate. In the eyes of major forces, his role was far less than that of the doctors of the Six Divisions. But in Luoyang City, this place considered to be the "base camp" of the Lu family in Fanyang, there was such a slap in the face. Everyone was waiting to see what kind of reaction the Lu family would give.

Li Mu was waiting too.

The Lu family did not show up at the banquet in Dou Mansion. As the most powerful force among local snakes, such a lack of face has already shown the problem.

When they were in Chang'an, the Lu family of Fanyang, Zheng family of Xingyang, and Cui family of Boling were always against Li Mu. They did suffer a lot of losses. Many forces in Chang'an, because of Li Mu, gradually gave up. They seemed to be declining, but they were only limited to Chang'an City. In other places, they were not weak at all.

Just talking about Luoyang's resources, when they gradually withdrew from Chang'an, they had already exchanged a lot of Luoyang's resources from the Li family of Zhaojun, Wang family of Taiyuan, and Cui family of Qinghe. In this Luoyang city, the advantages of the three families are very obvious.

It is absolutely impossible for Li Mu to control this city without the support of these three families. But judging from the current situation, Li Mu wants to talk to the Lu family, but there is no channel. So he is waiting, but he can only wait. He can't go to the Lu family's mansion like entering the Dou family. The situation is different. His method of using Dou Ren and using it in aristocratic families may not be effective, but will make people look down upon it.

"Wait" Li Mu looked at the sky and said to Su Dingfang: "Arranging a few more night patrolers tonight, I'm worried that there will be any changes."

Su Dingfang bowed and said, "I will understand it in the end."

After saying that, Li Mu turned around and entered the house. Bai Qiaoqiao had already fallen asleep. Jin Chen was waiting for him. When he saw Li Mu enter the house, he brought water for foot washing. She squatted down and was about to help Li Mu take off his socks, but Li Mu stopped him. He pulled Jin Chen's wrist and asked her to sit aside, saying, "You don't have to be self-righteous. Although you have been bad to me, when you decided to die for me, all these bad things were paid back. You are by my side, and you are not a maid, so you don't have to do these things. Moreover, I have hands and feet. Do you have to do someone to do it if you wash your feet?"

"I just don't know, I can do something for you." Jin Chen pursed his lips and said, "I don't know what the use of myself being by your side."

Li Mu put his feet in hot water, and he screamed: "Who said it must be of use to stay by my side? You have also talked a lot with Qiaoqiao these days. Which of the women beside me stays by my side because they are useful to me?"

"They are different from me."

Li Mu looked up at her and said strangely: "Where is different?"

"They haven't harmed you, but I'm"

"Hi." Li Mu took the towel, wiped his feet, and said, "What's the harm? If I care about it, I won't keep you anymore. Don't mention this in the future." Li Mu suddenly stopped and winked at Jin Chen. Jin Chen was stunned for a moment, got up and went to the bed, sheathed the dagger in his hand, and vaguely protected Bai Qiaoqiao behind him.

Li Mu opened the musket security in his sleeve, raised his arm and pointed it at the beam of the room, saying, "Where did the thief arhat come from? Eavesdropping on the night talk between the couple, don't know whether they are ashamed or ugly? What kind of heroes are hidden and exposed? If you have the courage to see him, don't be afraid of your head and tail!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person suddenly fell from the roof, pounced on the ground, and there was a big hole on the back of his neck. Then the sound of fighting sounded, and screams were everywhere on the roof and outside the house.

Although Li Mu had skill, he was useless himself. At best, he was just a strong young man. He was still a little scared of this kind of scene of swords and swords fighting and killing. The main reason was that Bai Qiaoqiao had a child in her belly. He was really worried that he could not take care of it.

"Su Lie! Where is the death? My life is going to be gone!"

No one responded. Li Mu rushed to the door and looked out. There were many guards falling in the yard, and Su Dingfang was among them, but there was no blood on his body, as if he was smoky.

"Husband, what's wrong with it outside?"

"It's okay, you two hide in the corner first, I'll go and have a look." Li Mu comforted Bai Qiaoqiao, pulled out Shangfang's sword and rushed out. Two groups of men in black were fighting outside, but they were gradually coming to an end. One side was obviously going to lose. Looking at the roof, a familiar figure moved around, and the one-on-three was not at all inferior. Wherever the sword light went, blood flew, and the speed of the move was getting faster and faster.

"Xiao Jiuer, are you here? You are here, who has taken over the Jinyiwei?"

No one responded, and the battle between the men in black quickly decided to win. With the whistling of the men in black on the roof, the remaining people in black who were still alive all used their light skills and jumped out of the wall and disappeared.
