Li Mu called Changsun Chong to prepare for the affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He also came with some graduates from the second phase of the Tang Technical School. They were all people who worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for half a year and had some work experience.

The Office of the Internal Affairs and the Office of the Foreign Affairs, one to the Internal Affairs and the other to the External Affairs, are essentially very different. When these people come here, they will be able to devote themselves to their work soon.

Because they are second-year students, even the best among them cannot be the director or director after entering the Office of the Internal Affairs. However, when they come to the Office of Foreign Affairs, the situation is different. The Office of Foreign Affairs is the time to employ people, and if they have outstanding abilities, they will have a good chance of promotion.

They also pursued this possibility and were willing to give up the wealth of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ran from Chang'an to Luoyang.

Only Changsun Chong was different. He had wanted to come for a long time, but his father had never allowed him to come. This time, he came to Luoyang, and took advantage of his father's failure to react and went to Li Shimin to ask for an order. Why don't you know when you get home?

However, Changsun Chong didn't care about these things. He was all father and son, and at most he could only be beaten up with one blow.

Changsun Chong was the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in charge of the Imperial Bureau, which is known as the "Super Three Bureaus". Because of his identity, when Li Mu was away, he was the leader of the Imperial Affairs Office and often represented the Imperial Affairs Office in court. When he came to Luoyang, he did not get any human and substantial benefits. Even if he was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the rights in his hands may not be much higher than his original ones. You must know that the Imperial Affairs Office does not have the Imperial Affairs Office, and the Imperial Affairs Office, under the system of the new policy, actually manages all the land in the country except for the land distributed by the people.

According to preliminary statistics, it is almost one-fifth of the existing land in the country. The oil and water of the fool can calculate it clearly.

But what Changsun Chong wanted was not the so-called oil and water. He was born into a noble family and had never lacked money since he was a child. He had the concept of money, but he did not bow down for money. At first, he targeted Li Mu, not because of money, but because of his intention.

Before Li Mu appeared, he was the most beautiful boy in Chang'an City. Although he was a little fat, no one dared to say it. But since Li Mu appeared, his halo was taken away. The most annoying thing is that Li Mu dared to mock him for his fatness. What a fat man hates the most is who said he was fat. For the sake of the dignity of the fat man, of course he had to fight with Li Mu.

But, if you can't fight, what else can you do?

Li Mu's all kinds of magic completely convinced Changsun Chong. Changsun Chong could only be his apprentice willingly. He always had an intuition in his heart that Li Mu was the one who could change the Tang Dynasty. Following him, at least he could see with his own eyes the changes he brought to the world. Being able to participate in it will be considered exciting.

...

He talked all night without realizing it. When it was almost dawn, Changsun Chong stopped talking. Although Gem was so sensible that he felt interesting, he really couldn't hold it back and his mind was dizzy. At this time, a chicken cried outside, Changsun Chong got up to dress. Gem looked at him like a lunatic and said, "It's only been a few days, why are you going to get up?"

"Get up and run to strengthen your body." Changsun Chong explained while putting on his clothes: "When I was studying in the valley, my mentor asked us to run every morning and evening. I used to be a fat man, more than 200 kilograms. Look, I have lost all my running now."

"You have more than 200 kilograms?" Gem was surprised and his tone changed. One big reason why he could chat with Changsun Chong for so long was that he thought Changsun Chong had a very good physique. Although he was not the kind of strongman, there were few that strong people among ordinary people. Especially the muscles on his arms were more developed than he himself. Gem never thought that Changsun Chong, who was so strong, would have been a fat man of 200 kilograms, which was incredible.

"Tsk—" Gem curled his lips and said, "Look at how you look now, you will know how much hardship you have suffered. Your master is really good at it."

"It's also your master," Changsun Chong reminded: "You haven't experienced that period and can't understand the benefits. At the beginning, I couldn't hold on. Fortunately, my classmates took them with me, and finally I could barely hold on. Later, I slowly caught up and reduced my body of fat to realize my mentor's efforts. Now I am light and energetic, and I can do whatever I want. In the past, I never want to go back."

Changsun rushed on his shoes and said, "I'll go run a lap and call you when I'm back. Today, the master sets off. You and I are disciples, so you have to prepare early."

"What are you preparing?"

Changsun Chong's voice came in through the window: "I have to give it to Master. If you don't understand, it's okay, just follow me."

"Wu!" Gem curled his lips, pulled the quilt up, covering his head. After a while, he snored everywhere.

...

Li Mu is going to set off today, and of course he was a little busy last night. He was in Jin Chen's room for the first half of the night, and after midnight he got into Zhang Tianai's room. In the dawn, Zhang Tianai finally fell asleep. Li Mu yawned back to Qiaoqiao's room, worried that he would wake Qiaoqiao up, so he sat by the bed and looked at their mother and three.

The sage of men is always the most sober. Many thoughts passed through Li Mu's mind. After having a child, Li Mu's thoughts became clearer. He knew what he wanted and gave up unnecessary hesitation. Because there were many people who needed him. He could not be a Virgin Mary, he could only be selfish, protect the people he thought were important, and do what he thought was important.

This time he went to Miaojiang to find Wang Ou, his purpose was very clear. He must bring Wang Ou back, no matter what obstacles there were. Even if Wang Ou told him in person, everything she did was fake and was just for borrowing seeds. Li Mu also wanted to bring her back because Wang Ou was his woman, and this reason alone was enough.

As for Cui Yuzheng, in Li Mu's heart, he was already a dead person.

If it were Li Mu before, he might think it was a bit unfair to Cui Yuzheng. But now, he doesn’t have that much thought. There is no such thing as fair. When you put your ideas on me, you never thought about playing with my feelings. Is it unfair to me? Since that’s the case, it depends on who has great ability.

This time I went to Miaojiang, if I could make sense, if I could make sense, if I couldn’t make sense, I would rob it. Li Mu had already made up his mind to never let his women and children follow another man.

When she was stunned, she couldn't feel the time. In a flash, it was already bright outside. Bai Qiaoqiao also woke up, looking at Li Mu's eyes in a daze, knowing that he had something to do, and that she could do was nothing but not cause trouble for him. Qiaoqiao reached out and held Li Mu's hand, and woke him up from his random thoughts.

Li Mu looked at Bai Qiaoqiao and said, "Are you awake? Why don't you sleep for a while?"

"I can't sleep for long," Bai Qiaoqiao yawned and said, "After a while, my son will cry. I've been doing this every day for several days."

"This kid," Li Mu raised his hand and gestured on Li Bai's butt, and he was reluctant to hit him, but if he felt the "palm wind", Li Bai still started crying. Qiaoqiao gave him a blank look, got up and hugged the child. Li Mu could only smile awkwardly. Finally, his son stopped crying, and his daughter cried again. He had to pick up his daughter and coax him. The originally quiet environment became noisy in an instant.

The old mother waiting in the outer room heard the crying and hurried in. After all, she had experience. The child took it over and swayed for a few times, but stopped crying. Li Mu wiped the sweat from his head and said from his heart: "I've been out for two months, which is enough for you to be tired."

"Isn't someone helping me?" Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and said, "My father said she was coming, and her mother-in-law is on the way. Don't worry, I have nothing to do here. But you,"

Qiaoqiao knew about Wang Ou, and Li Mu didn't hide it from her: "Will Sister Ou come back with you this time? If she refuses, what do you want to do?"

"She refuses, I'll take her back too." Li Mu didn't say anything in his mind, unless he can confirm that Wang Ou really doesn't love him at all. Then, he will do another thing. He will kill Cui Yuzheng, and when he reaches that point, he won't care about anything.

But he wouldn't tell Bai Qiaoqiao about fighting and killing. Moreover, he didn't think that Wang Ou really had no feelings for him.

After Li Mu said this, Bai Qiaoqiao stopped asking, changed the subject and said, "When will you leave? When will you come back?"

"I will come back before winter, and I will leave after breakfast." Li Mu held Bai Qiaoqiao's hand and said, "Xiao Jiuer and I have come with me. He has prepared many people to protect me, so you don't have to worry. But at home, I have to rely on the Jinyiwei. Yesterday, I discussed with Tianai and made preparations. Tianai and Chenchen are both good at kung fu, so there is no problem in protecting themselves. The only thing I am worried about is you. The existing preparations can ensure your safety in the mansion. You have to go out. Try not to go out if you don't go out. If you have to go out, bring the heavy rain pear blossom needle I gave you."

"How many enemies are there?" Seeing that Li Mu was very serious, Bai Qiaoqiao had to say, "Okay, I won't leave the mansion. With these two children being dragged, I can't leave even if I want to go out, so don't worry."

Li Mu gently hugged Bai Qiaoqiao and said, "I will start building a ship when I come back this time. I will try to bring Zhien back before next year's autumn harvest. Then we will be reunited."

"Yes." Bai Qiaoqiao also hugged Li Mu, feeling sorry for his man. Who knows that the mighty Marquis of Luoyang, his wish is so simple?

"I will take the pigeon away. If you have any questions, I will pass the letter to me." Li Mu took out a booklet from his arms and said, "This is what I left for Siwen. When he has done the matter here, you hand it over to him. He will understand what to do after reading it."

"Yes." Bai Qiaoqiao put away the booklet and did not go to read it. As soon as she knew that she might not be able to understand it, and, in addition, she did not have that much curiosity.

After explaining the matter, the old mother took the child back to feed her. After feeding the child, Bai Qiaoqiao got up and washed up. Li Mu asked someone to bring breakfast to the house. After the couple finished eating, Li Mu was about to leave.

Bai Qiaoqiao had not finished her confinement, so she could not leave the house according to the rules. But Li Mu was leaving today, so she had to send her off. In order to avoid being exposed to the wind, the old mothers wrapped her up three layers inside and three layers outside, and gained three weight out of thin air.

Li Mu didn't want her to be so tired, but he could understand her mood, so he didn't stop him.

This time, I prepared everything I had. In addition to Dugu Jiu personally led the team, there were thirty famous masters in the world, there were thirty swords and axes and 40 archers. All the weapons were brought, and the archers were prepared with crossbows. If they rely on favorable terrain, the combat power of these 100 people could be at least ten times the number of people.

In addition, Li Mu also made some extra preparations. For example, he also brought a box of explosives. Maybe he couldn't use it, but what if he used it? Wouldn't you be blind if you didn't prepare it?

All kinds of herbs, food, thin clothes, and basic things were naturally brought together. After explaining the matter, the old mother took the child back to feed her.

In addition to the combatants, he also brought two sets of things to Qiaoqiao's midwife team when she delivered the baby. If she gave birth to twins, she would not be in a hurry. Even if she gave birth to only one, she would have prepared one more set of spares.

In addition, Li Mu also made some extra preparations. For example, he brought a box of explosives. Maybe he couldn't use it, but what if he used it? It's always right to prepare it.

All kinds of herbs, food, thin clothes, and basic things are naturally brought together.

After bringing so many things, the team is naturally huge. Twelve large cars in front and behind, and the road in front of the Marquis’ Mansion is full.

Qiaoqiao couldn't see the wind, so she could only go to the door. Although she knew that Li Mu was not coming back, she still couldn't bear to let it go when the matter was about to come. Tears couldn't stop flowing, and Jin Chen was not going well. She hid behind Qiaoqiao and didn't want Li Mu to see it. Zhang Tianai was the strongest, she didn't cry, and her eyes turned red. Wei Yingluo stood far away, but her eyes were always on Li Mu, and she hadn't moved for a moment.

Li Siwen, Li Tai, Changsun Chong, Gem, Ma Zhou... These people from the Hou Mansion, except those on the construction site, have basically come here.
