Li Yuan looked like a child waiting to listen to stories. Li Mu felt aroused in his heart. He immediately took the schedule of Yao Jin over the wall with his six sons, stole the wine he had brewed, and said he wanted to do business with him. Why did he refuse, and the various things about horseshoes on the second day, including Li Shimin's wedding. Speaking of the joints, he imitated the crosstalk of later generations, gestured and learned to speak. Although it was not that very similar, it was also very novel to Li Yuan. He heard it with relish and laughed from time to time.

After Li Mu finished speaking, Li Yuan smiled and said, "It turns out that so many interesting things have happened in the past few days. Cheng Yaojin dared to steal my wine... but it's like that guy's temper, and he's not stingy. Tang Jian hasn't been rehearsing for so many years, and he's actually fascinated by your mother. It seems that fate is really wonderful. But you really make me look at you with admiration. At a young age, you dare to disobey the emperor's orders. You are really a naughty man, and you have the horseshoe. I don't know what it looks like, which can make Li Ji and Cheng Yaojin admire him so much."

Li Mu rolled his eyes and saw a desk next to him. He bowed and said, "I can draw one for the Emperor to see. This thing is not complicated at all. The Emperor will understand after reading it."

"Oh?" Li Yuan said immediately: "Draw it quickly."

Li Mu walked to the desk, picked up a pen and dipped it ink, drew a horseshoe on the paper, then tore it apart, tore it off and handed it to Li Yuan. Li Yuan held the pattern in his hand, looked at it for a while, and understood how it was used. He was amazed and said, "Sure enough, no one thought of such a simple thing before, and asked you to get a credit for it."

Li Mu laughed and said, "It's just a coincidence. I dare not take credit."

Li Yuan put the pattern on the table and said, "Li Mu, you are very good. I like you. Don't leave today. I'll have a banquet with me later."

"this……"

Seeing Li Mu's face hesitation, Li Yuan said unhappily: "Why, don't you want to stay with me?"

Li Mu quickly bowed and said, "I am not willing to accompany the Supreme Emperor, but I think that the Supreme Emperor is already at this age and it is better to eat lightly. Drinking and hanging-over every day is too harmful to your body. I can accompany the Supreme Emperor to do something else."

"What else?" It's okay if I didn't mention this, but when I mentioned this, Li Yuan's resentment suddenly ignited: "I want to do something else, but unfortunately I have given birth to a good son and have done everything for me. If I don't have a banquet, what else can I do? I hurt my body? Ha! Some people are afraid that I will hurt my body too much. If I die earlier, he will have no worries!"

This was a bit heartbroken. Li Mu didn't dare to continue and kept silent. Li Yuan waited for a while but didn't hear Li Mu's response. He said annoyedly: "Why, when you mention Li Shimin, don't you dare to speak?"

Li Mu thought for a moment, and said, "Does the Supreme Emperor really want to listen to the opinions of the minister?"

"Nonsense, I naturally have to listen to your opinions. Is there a third person here?"

Li Mu cleared his throat and said, "Then I risked my life to talk about my personal opinion. If I say it wrong, I hope the Supreme Emperor will forgive me. Although I came from a remote place around me, I have heard about the matters of the Tian family after coming to Chang'an, and I have learned a little bit. Although things are unfortunate, there is a cause. If the blame is attributed to Your Majesty alone, it is indeed unfair. To this day, it is unnecessary to say who is right or wrong. I can understand the feeling of the Supreme Emperor drowning his sorrow by drinking, but in my opinion, drinking and worrying in my heart is even more sad. Feasting and hanging overflowing cannot solve the problem. Instead, it will make the dissatisfaction in my heart, so that the rift becomes deeper and deeper, and the father and son are separated, causing regrets."

"Wine is so sad and sad..." Li Yuan sighed and said, "This is exactly what I say. Whenever I think of the Xuanwu Sect that day, I feel depressed... But what can I do? Li Shimin is so cruel. I only have three outstanding sons. He killed two of them at once, forcing me to a desperate situation. I don't want to choose him, but I have to choose him. Half of the civil and military officials in the court stood by him. What else can I do if I do not abdicate? I want to kill him with a knife and make the Tang Dynasty have no successor, or wait for him to kill me and bear the eternal infamy of killing my father and seizing the throne?"

As he spoke, Li Yuan's eyes were filled with tears. Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little moved when he saw it. Every family has a difficult sutra, so what if it is a royal family? In the face of that supreme throne, anything will be magnified. Later generations said that Li Shimin killed his brothers, but looking at the past and present, are there few such things in order to seize the throne?

Li Mu advised: "The Supreme Emperor might as well change his perspective. What if the person who died was His Majesty?"

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "What does it mean?"

"I mean, if the incident happened in the past, His Majesty died in Xuanwu Gate, what changes will happen to the situation of the Supreme Emperor? You will still abdicate or drown your sorrows with alcohol, but the object you remember has become His Majesty today. Your Majesty promises to be civil and military, and you know how much contributions your Majesty made in the founding of the Tang Dynasty have made. Do you really don't miss him? I think that if the person who died in that year was His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor's sorrows today would only be more, not less."

Li Yuan stood there blankly and tried to imagine it, and found that if Li Mu said, if Li Shimin died in Xuanwu Gate back then, he would have been even more painful.

"The fundamental reason for this is that brothers are in conflict. Both sides have forced the other party to a desperate situation, but the one who takes action first is His Majesty. The result is already destined. What is the use of the Supreme Emperor even if he is sad? In my opinion, what has done since His Majesty ascended the throne has proved that he can take on great responsibilities and that he has the ability to be a good emperor. This also shows that in the dark, God is so willing, and God has chosen His Majesty as your successor. What trouble do you have? No one can be an emperor for thousands of years. Most emperors, no matter how wise and powerful they are in their lives, will inevitably be destroyed by the hands of their descendants overnight after his death. Isn't the death of the Qin Dynasty a very obvious example?"

"Your Supreme Emperor, you have been fighting for the world for a lifetime. Many heroes have been defeated by you and have been invincible for your whole life. In your lifetime, you can give your country to a successor who can take on great responsibilities. Seeing that the country is prosperous and the people are rich... This life is perfect. The only person who can upset you is yourself. Since that is the case, why not let go of your worries and do more things you want to do but have not done while you are strong, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

Li Yuan listened blankly and didn't say anything. After Li Mu finished speaking, he saw that Li Yuan had no reaction. He didn't know whether he was right or wrong, and he didn't dare to say anything. After a while, Li Yuan let out a breath and said, "Are you a kid who was the lobbyist sent by Li Shimin?"

Li Mu quickly said, "The Supreme Emperor clearly understands that this matter was not mentioned by me. If the Supreme Emperor had not asked me, how dare I discuss the affairs of the Tian Family."

"That's true..." Li Yuan nodded and asked again: "What do you mean by what you want to do but have not done? For example?"

"Uh," Li Mu thought for a while and said, "For example, I went to the Ministry of Works yesterday and reported that many craftsmen lived in shanty towns, with poor conditions and very pitiful. I couldn't bear it, so I was thinking of ways to raise money and build some better houses for them... This is what I want to do not do yet."

"Oh." Li Yuan thought about it for a moment and said, "I have basically done everything I want to do in my life. Do you want to do things that have not been done yet... I am afraid that there are only those uncontrollable thoughts when I was a child."

"It's okay, just do it if you want!"

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Good words! You can do it if you want to! Go back first, I will think about it carefully."
