Tai Chi Hall.

"My Me Li Mu, please meet Your Majesty and join the Queen. I thank Your Majesty for not killing you."

Li Mu saluted properly, then stood honestly with his hands behind his back, his eyes still a little sleepy, and his hair was dotted with a few strands of weeds. This was something Li Mu specially grabbed on the ground before leaving. Before entering the hall, he asked Eunuch Gao to help him get it up.

Eunuch Gao's decades of hair combing skills have made these weeds distributed in an orderly manner, adding Li Mu a sense of vicissitudes.

Li Shimin glared at Li Mu, snorted coldly, and ignored him. It was Empress Changsun who had done a good job in peace. She came to Li Mu, helped him pick the weeds on his hair, and then tidied up his clothes, saying, "Marquis Zhulu, you can't do things so recklessly anymore in the future. The Tang Dynasty has rules, do you know how much Zhou Zheng has His Majesty spent to save your life?"

"Thank you for your care, Your Majesty, I dare not forget it at all."

"Young man is fooling me here!" Li Shimin finally couldn't help but speak, saying, "Li Mu, you are so brave and have such great ability! Even I dare to plot against you? How is your behavior different from that Wei Zheng? I really regret it was too late to understand, otherwise... I won't save you!"

Empress Changsun quickly winked at Li Shimin, but Li Shimin pretended not to see him. He was indeed angry. Eunuch Gao saved the great Shandong scholars and sent Wei Zheng back to the mansion to report the situation. How could Li Shimin not notice the trick? Although he said in front of Wei Zheng that the great Shandong scholars and ordinary people are both people, this is just a tactic. The actual situation is clear to each other. Shandong scholars are gentry, and the gentry is the first to be higher than the people. If no one urges them to urge them to challenge the gentry or even fight?

No minister in the court would do such a ridiculous thing. Even if Li Ji, Tang Jian and others wanted to protect Li Mu, they would not do such a thing. Then the mastermind behind the scenes was about to come out, and it must be director Li Mu!

Thinking of Li Yuan appearing in Liangyi Hall, and the two things were together, Li Shimin suddenly felt that his IQ was played with by Li Mu. This brat killed someone and gained the reputation of a filial son, but it made the court so chaotic that he, the emperor, was forced to helpless by his ministers several times, and even caused a ridiculous scene of the two saints coming to the court. What about him? He just slept in the prison of Dali Temple. How could Li Shimin not be angry!

"Your Majesty, I admit my mistake." Li Mu knelt on the ground and apologized, saying, "The people outside the imperial city are indeed hired by me. This matter is also my instructed. I can deceive the people of the world, but I will not lie to you."

Li Shimin heard this very comfortably, frowned and asked, "You said, you hired those people?"

"Yes." Li Mu nodded and said, "The main force is hired, and some of them join in the fun. Bai Chun, the father-in-law, has contacts with many idle men in Chang'an City. He helped the minister find people, two stakes of fighting, one slogan a day for cursing, and those shrews with the most sharp mouth..." Li Mu glanced at Li Shimin's eyes and whispered: "Five stakes of money are a day for cursing."

Li Shimin was angry and said, "It really opened my eyes. It's good to have money. Li Mu, your money has not been earned in vain!"

"Thank you for your praise."

"Are I praising you?!" Li Shimin slapped the table suddenly and said angrily: "Didn't you have already explained your funeral? You smashed my Dali Temple and killed people in public, so majestic! You don't want to live anymore, so what are you doing with this kind of thing? And your father-in-law, what do he do to make friends with a casual man? Have you already planned to treat me as your pawn!"

Facing Li Shimin's anger, Li Mu did not panic, but smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, how can I plot against me? How could I know that Zhao Yuanlang would insult my mother? If I say that I conspired with Zhao Yuanlang, it would not work. He has been killed by me. How could he use his life to conspire with me?"

Li Shimin was right when he thought about it, and snorted angrily, saying, "Even if you don't have a plan, you have to explain it clearly to me!"

"Oh!" Li Mu sighed and said, "Your Majesty forgives the crime. Your Majesty changed his order at that time. I really felt discouraged and angry. I thought to myself that my heart is so clear to your Majesty, but it did not bring about his Majesty's empathy. I was discouraged. Because my mother was insulted, I was anxious and killed someone with a hot head. But then I calmed down and felt that it would be a bit unworthy if I exchanged my life with someone like Zhao Yuanlang. Moreover, I am not alone, I have wives and concubines, and I have a lot of wives and concubines. Mother, I can't die like this. So I thought of saving myself. When my wife and concubine visited the prison last night, I told them to convey my intentions. I originally wanted to use the Tang Dynasty Daily to defend me, but I didn't expect that Wei Zheng was so despicable that he inspired Shandong Confucian scholars to block the imperial city gate. When I learned the news, I knew that Your Majesty would be embarrassed, so I changed my mind temporarily. The father-in-law of the minister found these people and treated him with his own way."

"As for why my father-in-law makes friends with idle men... Speaking of which, I still have some relationship with Uncle Cheng, did Uncle Cheng's horse farm share 30% of the profits? He felt that he had a loss, so he forced me to make up for it. After thinking about it, there was no good idea. So I wanted to pick up more and more people who wanted to watch the Marseille and hype the tickets of the horse farm. So I asked my father-in-law to make friends with these idle men, give them the tickets first, and then sell them at a high price to make a profit... I didn't expect that before I could buy the tickets, I used them first. I was really ashamed and ashamed."

Li Mu told this story, and Li Shimin was also a little ashamed. If Li Mu didn't remind him, he wouldn't remember it. Li Mu helped him snatch 30% of the profit from Cheng Yaojin's bowl. This was tens of thousands of chunks of money every month, and it was also used as the money used by the treasury.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt embarrassed, but he was the emperor after all, so he was embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "The Dali Temple Prison is always isolated from the outside world. You are an exception. If you have wives and concubines to visit the prison, you can still convey messages... Humph, it was Cheng Yaojin who helped you?"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Your Majesty, Uncle Cheng is not an outsider after all. Besides, I have also earned a lot of money for him. Is this kind of favor?"

"The law is not merciless! I will denounce him tomorrow."

Li Mu quickly restrained his smile and whispered: "I know I am wrong."

Seeing Li Mu's gentleness, Li Shimin's anger also subsided, but when he thought of Li Yuan's incident, he extremized his anger and pointed at Li Mu and asked, "There is another thing. If you don't explain it to me clearly, I will still kill you!"

"Ah?" Li Mu showed his second-generation acting skills and said panic: "Your Majesty, I wonder what mistakes have you made?"

"Why did the Supreme Emperor come to Liangyi Palace? Explain it clearly to me! Do you know what kind of impact will the Supreme Emperor appear in Liangyi Palace today? If someone makes a fuss about this matter, how much trouble will it cause?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know about this. I am in prison and I see only my family. How can I contact the Supreme Emperor? This is simply impossible. Please give me a clear understanding!"

"Impossible?" Li Shimin sneered, "I heard that when you were in prison, you said arrogantly that you must be fine, and that anyone who helped you, you don't need to... You also said that you have a trump card. If you use it at the last moment, you will definitely be safe. Tell me, what else can this trump card be if it is not the Supreme Emperor?"

"Uh..." Li Mu showed a hint of embarrassment and stammered: "Your Majesty, I'd better stop talking, it's all over."

"Say!" Li Shimin said angrily: "Don't try to get away with it. Do you think this is a trivial matter?"

"Oh!" Li Mu sighed, as if he had made up his mind and said, "Then let me confess... Yesterday, I smashed the walls of Dali Temple before entering..."

"I know, I heard from the high-ranking officials that the Ministry of Works sent someone to repair the wall... I understand that it was the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works who left a passage for you? Who did it? I'm so bold!"

"No!" Li Mu quickly cleared it up and said, "Your Majesty, how many craftsmen in the Ministry of Works dare to do such things. That's the case. The reason why I can smash into the wall is because my guard Li Chongyi. You have seen him, the big man who is following me. He is born with divine power, so I have built a giant axe for him. The wall of Dali Temple was smashed with an axe. When I was in prison, I may have ignored it. No one took away his axe. I just thought, if it was really a dead end, I would let him smash a hole in Dali Temple and run away while the night was dark. Anyway, it was Uncle Cheng who led his troops to guard him. I felt that Uncle Cheng didn't want the boy to die and would not chase him too much."

"You actually want to smash Dali Temple?" Li Shimin screamed in anger, stood up and grabbed the Yidao beside the case: "You gangster, you regard the national laws as if nothing is needed. I will cut you down now!"

Empress Changsun quickly stopped him. In fact, it would be fine if he didn't stop him. Li Shimin had already killed him, so he could not have killed him now. But if no one stopped him, the scene would be a bit awkward. Empress Changsun had always known Li Shimin's thoughts, so of course he couldn't let him get out of Taiwan.

After a quarrel, Li Shimin threw the Yidao to the ground, still angry, and snorted: "Do you think it's okay if you run away? If I send a captive document, can I escape you?"

Li Mu laughed with a roar and said, "I know that Your Majesty can't bear to leave me."

Li Shimin glared at him angrily and said, "Who can't bear to leave you? She's smiling and still looks like a minister?"

Li Mu quickly honestly said, "I know I am wrong."

"Get out quickly, the Supreme Emperor is still waiting for you to pay your respects! Get out!"

"No." Li Mu responded, looked up at Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, and rolled around on the spot. Li Shimin looked at him dumbfoundedly, grabbed the inkstone at his hand and smashed it over: "You little brat, you dare to joke with me, really think that I won't kill you?"
