Chapter 339 Who can withstand this!

When Hu Saner heard this, she almost knelt on the ground.

If you exchange 400 guan coins for silver ingots, even if you exchange 10 taels for one, there will be forty. If you suffer forty strokes... No, you won’t need forty strokes. Such a large ingot can be killed with all your strength, and you won’t need forty strokes at all.

Is the Marquis trying to be silenced? Is he going to kill someone to silence him?

All kinds of terrible thoughts came to my mind, and Hu Saner hurriedly knelt on the ground and hugged Li Mu's thighs and cried, "Marty, spare the villain's life--"

"Hmph!" Li Mu raised his legs and kicked him away, saying, "Remember what I said, I am doing business, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, and the price is agreed. Don't discard me, I won't discard you either. I can use you to wipe zero, so you seem generous? You love to wipe zero so you don't dispose of six hundred guan, but you need a thousand?"

Hu Saner nodded like pounding garlic and hurriedly said, "Okay, 1,000, 1,000, what does the marquis say?"

"I haven't remembered yet, right? Ding is Ding Mao or Mao, don't you understand this?"

"Do it, do it!" Hu Saner was about to cry and said, "Mr. Marquis, what are you going to do! The villain reacts slowly and cannot understand the profound meaning of Marquis!"

"No deep meaning!" Li Mu shouted in anger: "I have always had the same meaning. How much should it be? One thousand six is ​​one thousand six. Who are we trying to do it? Jiuer, take it away, give him the money according to the number, and let him get out!"

Dugu Jiu came over and pulled Hu Saner up. He did not have the power of Li Chongyi, but he was much bigger than ordinary people, so he pulled Hu Saner away.

Li Mu quickly calmed down his emotions, smiled, ran to the carriage, and gave Eunuch Gao a more look, and said, "Your Majesty, are you so idle today? Is the inspection work here?"

Yuan Tiangang poked his head out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Long time no see, Zhulu Hou."

"God? When are you back!" Li Mu blurted out when he saw Yuan Tiangang. He had already said something, but he realized it was not appropriate. He hurriedly asked for a supplement and said, "I speak out loud, don't be angry, hahaha..."

"What a blunt man? I think you are used to being arrogant and domineering, and no one takes it seriously!" Li Shimin got off the carriage, looked at Li Mu with a cold face, and said, "It's just a routine for the servants in Chang'an County. Look at you like that, you're a playboy. It seems that I'm spoiling you so much and indulging you into this!"

"Your Majesty," Li Mu immediately changed into a bitter face and said, "I am wronged. What should you do if you ask me to do? The factory does not have enough staff, and you don't even give me a clerk. If no one works, the order will not be completed. Do you know what order is this? They are all the ploughshares of Zhenguan plows that you will use for next spring plowing. If you make one more, you will benefit the people and produce a few acres of grain. With too much food, Your Majesty will no longer be constrained by those aristocratic families and can also be used to raise soldiers. It is said that before the army moves, food and grass will come first. My Message is for Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin was a little confused. He frowned and thought for a while before he reacted, and said angrily: "I am talking about your attitude problem. Where have you been involved? Even if you are anxious and understandable, then you shouldn't scold the servant. Did the servant leader say the wrong thing? Isn't it a big deal to get these ragged slaves on the street?"

"Don't you think it's wrong?" Li Mu looked surprised and spread his hands and said, "My Tang Dynasty is the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom. Even if it is a slave, he is also a slave of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom. These barbarians cannot compare! Besides, now they are apprentices from the Ministry of Works. I am very confident that they will soon earn enough money to redeem themselves and become dignified people of the Tang Dynasty. Why should the envoys of Gaochang look down on them?"

"You can even argue, Gao Chang also performs Chinese rituals and speaks Chinese language, which is not much different from those of the Central Plains..."

"I don't care about those." Li Mu said arrogantly: "In my eyes, I am not my people in the Tang Dynasty, but all of them are monkeys!"

Li Shimin was so angry that he pointed at Li Mu, saying, "I will make you angry one day - forgot, I won't argue with you about these things. I am here to ask you today, I want to ask you, I asked the senior officials to notify you of that matter, but you will do it. I will limit you to seven days. It's been more than ten days, and there is no news at all. Don't you take me seriously?"

Li Mu started to complain again and said, "Your Majesty, please be reasonable. Yes, you said it for seven days, but in the first three days, didn't you ask me to do some work in the Duke of Lai? I stayed up for three days and three nights, and finally got things done. I immediately took over the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs again. You gave an imperial edict, without a penny, without a single person, and without an office space. Those merchants were urging me to block the door every day and ask for orders. Can't I deal with it one by one?"

As he said that, Li Mu was about to cry and said, "I am not three heads and six arms, so I will let you live. You don't know. I have already put the house out--"

This scared Li Shimin. After thinking about it, he felt something was wrong and said, "What did you say? Which one wants you to get into the house? The gap in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is so big that it forces you to sell the house? Don't worry about me. Judging from your attitude just now, do you look like you are short of money?"

"Hehe, nothing can be hidden from your Majesty's eyes." Li Mu changed into a flattering smile and said, "I am indeed not short of money, but it is true that I want to move. When Doctor Sun left, I promised him to open a clinic for the people and let his apprentice take a medical treatment. I plan to empty the house and move to Feng Qiuhuang first. Didn't Your Majesty reward me with a valley? It is also being built, and I can move it in the beginning of spring, so I will not delay it."

"The plaque I gave you..." Li Shimin suddenly thought of the plaque he had stamped with the inscription "Zhulu Marquis Mansion", which was also covered with the imperial seal.

"Of course I will take you wherever you want to go!" Li Muyi said righteously: "Your Majesty's kind gift, I wish I could be by my side day and night. How could it be damaged? Your Majesty rest assured that the house in the valley has not been built these days, so I will roll up a bed and sleep on the plaque."

Li Shimin said angrily: "Your boy's mouth is getting more and more broken and poorer now."

"Working with those merchants, those who are close to the ink are dark--" Li Mu smiled and asked, "Since Your Majesty is here, why not inspect the Ministry of Works? After the new office of the Ministry of Works is built, it is your first time to come back. There have been many departments in the past few days. Before you can submit memorials to Your Majesty, your Majesty just happened to see it, so it would save me the trouble of writing memorials."

"Let's take a look." Li Shimin walked towards the Ministry of Workshop and took a few steps. Suddenly he remembered something, and said, "I almost forgot about the memorial. I asked you to practice calligraphy a few months ago. Where did you practice? Last time I wrote that memorial, I found three bachelors to translate it. What kind of words you wrote were called? Why are there eight of the ten words missing gestures?"

"Uh..." Li Mu was a little embarrassed. He could not explain to Li Shimin that in the new dynasty a thousand five hundred years later, Emperor Taizu asked for simplification of the font, but now it is the Tang Dynasty!

Helplessly, he had to accept this, lowered his eyebrows and said with a straight face: "When I have time, I will definitely practice my calligraphy well."

Li Shimin said sternly: "If you don't have time, you are just a quibbling. How much time can you take to practice a calligraphy every day? When Wang Xizhi practices calligraphy, even when he is eating, he must put the desk next to him. You are just an excuse."

"Your Majesty, I am not Wang Xizhi--"

"I don't expect you to become Wang Xizhi, but you can't even write a word in a third-rank minister, right? Isn't it a joke? You're still confidently debating Kong Aiqing's "The Analects of Confucius" and you can write the words incorrectly!"

Li Mu thought to himself that something seemed wrong, why isn't this over yet? Could it be that something happened today that made the boss unhappy and turned on the trouble-finding mode?

Li Mu secretly glanced at Eunuch Gao, and Eunuch Gao nodded, affirming what he was thinking.

No, you can't be used as a punching bag. You have to think of a solution later, even if you know what's going on, you can't just look at it. Before that, you'd better keep it steady and don't light up the explosives bag.

Li Mu admitted his mistake again and said, "Your Majesty is right. Starting today, I will copy Your Majesty's copybook every day."

"Nothing nonsense, do you have my copybook?"

"Uh..." Li Mu is also a person with a temper. I'm so low-profile, why are you not over yet? Could it be that the lyrics of that line, is it that I gave you the freedom I've given you?

Li Mu took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said, "I have an imperial edict written by Your Majesty in my family. I just copy the imperial edict."

"Do you still want to copy my imperial edict?" Li Shimin finally waited for Li Mu's mistake, and a happy look on his face as he was waiting for the rabbit to succeed, and he was furious: "Li Mu, do you want to rebel?"

“…”

Who can withstand this? It’s so difficult to serve!

Li Mu's temper also came up and said, "If Your Majesty has to find fault like this, I will do nothing and go home to practice calligraphy!" As he said that, he turned around and was about to leave. Li Shimin was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing and shouted, "Stop for me!"

"If I don't stand, I want to go home to practice calligraphy. Suddenly, I was obsessed with calligraphy and decided not to practice Wang Xizhi, so I would not leave the house. Your Majesty is relieved and will not let Your Majesty down!"

Li Shimin also knew that it was his own fault, so he deliberately found Li Mu's fault. Seeing that there was no way down, he could only find the way himself and said, "Okay, why are you crazy when you say a few words! Come back quickly, I will also inspect the Ministry of Works."

Li Mu stopped and looked back at Li Shimin, saying, "Then Your Majesty must first talk about where you got angry today. I must know, otherwise I will become Your Majesty's punching bag later."

"Oh!" Li Shimin sighed, told Li Mu about the scene from the Tai Chi Palace, and said, "I have entrusted them with great things, but they all only think about the face of the heavenly kingdom. Haha! Yes, just like those servants, they regard face as more important than anything else. They may have forgotten the truth that the minds of non-my race must be different. How can I not be angry?"
