Chapter 44: Saying the Dharma
It can be said that no one was better than this banquet except Li Mu.
Even Li Tai, who seems to be making the most profit, is the same. To be precise, he is a little confused now.
According to his logic, it shouldn't be so easy. And when everything happened, he only had one idea in his head, and there was something tricky here.
This made him very uneasy and kept speculating, but the temptation of the position of prince was too great, so great that he could not refuse.
All the civil and military officials in the court also had their own thoughts, and no one could eat them.
Li Mu left after he had enough wine and the banquet ended.
When he returned to the East Palace, the moon was already on the willows. When Li Mu saw the lights on his bedroom, a smile appeared on his face, and he pushed the door and walked in.
Ju Xian'er was dozing off. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she saw that it was Li Mu, and hurriedly got up to meet her.
"Why did you come back so late..." She helped Li Mu remove her coat and said, "I'll ask someone to prepare a bathing soup for you."
"No need." Li Mu buried his nose in her hair and said, "You're just as fragrant as you're fine. It doesn't matter if I don't wash it all day. Have you eaten? Is anyone treating you slowly?"
"No, Eunuch Gao has instructed me, they all respect me very much." Ju Xian'er helped Li Mu to the bed and untied his clothes. Li Mu put his arms around her waist and fell on the bed. After a while of slight scrutiny, Ju Xian'er was also "lucky clothes" by Li Mu and leaned shyly in his arms.
"how's it going?"
Ju Xian'er asked, and Li Mu knew that she was asking if anything had happened at the banquet just now.
"I took the initiative to abdicate."
"How could this happen?" Ju Xian'er sat up and frowned and said, "You haven't promised me, you won't--"
"I remember." Li Mu patted her little hand and said, "You must understand that there is a saying that is 'retreat to advance'. Now I don't have the ability to do it. Instead of being greedy for power and being criticized by others, it is better to take the initiative to abdicate and gain a good reputation."
"My father is now in full swing in the spring and autumn, and has broken through to the realm of refining the gods tonight. Nothing can happen in ten or twenty years. Life is still long, so why bother to stay for a while? If I have a day to recover my skills, the position of prince can be taken back at any time. If there is no that day, even if I sit now, I will be stolen in the future. Why should I live a frightened life?"
"Yes." Ju Xian'er nodded and said, "That's right," paused for a moment, and she said, "I didn't want you to give up the position of prince before, nor did you love vain, but you were worried that your younger brother would not be compatible one day if he ascended the throne. Since you have decided, I will listen to you. If he doesn't allow us, let's go and hide far away."
"Not that pessimistic." Li Mu scraped her nose and said, "Although I don't care much about the position of the prince, I have to give it to him, so that he can only ask it. If I don't want to give it to him, no one can take it away. Just think that it's a vacation for me and let him have fun. Sooner or later, he will understand that the prince is not so easy to be."
Ju Xian'er didn't understand, but she didn't continue to ask. In her opinion, Li Mu's cunning is normal, but if not, it would be abnormal. Moreover, it is impossible. If he has no means, how could he easily defeat Gaochang between turning his hands?
Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask, this is the most basic principle for a smart woman.
"I told my father that I want to study. Tomorrow we will move to the Literature Museum. It was built by my fourth brother who worked hard to collect tens of thousands of books, and he collected all the classics, history, and literature. Just take a look and learn about the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty."
"Well, when I was in the Western Regions, I admired the Tang Dynasty culture. Of course, I would not miss such an opportunity."
"It's good that you like it." Li Mu laughed and said, "Hongxiu Tianxiang studied at night. I will have a few days of life as a rich young man. Let my little brother worry about the things in the East Palace, just as he likes it too."
"Go to sleep." Li Mu patted Ju Xian'er's back, looked at the candle not far away, and a clear light flashed in his eyes, and said, "Extinguish the candle fire!"
The candlelight went out in response to the sound, as if it was voice-controlled.
Ju Xian'er looked at Xiqi, and Li Mu explained: "It's a gust of wind, it's a coincidence."
Ju Xian'er blinked. She had just seen the martial arts path, but she didn't have the ability to see what was going on, but she also knew that it was definitely not a gust of wind.
She smiled, without asking, and fell asleep in Li Mu's arms.
Li Mu glanced at the candle that had just been extinguished, and a hint of pride curled up at the corner of his mouth.
I'm such a fucking genius!
His move to extinguish the candlelight just now was extraordinary.
This is a capability given to him by the imperial seal, called "Kuhan Tianxian".
In fact, when Li Mu obtained the imperial seal, he had already recognized him as the main person, which is the so-called "obligation from heaven". Li Mu is the man of destiny.
It is natural for a person with destiny to have a natural constitution in his mouth.
However, Li Mu has lost all his skills and is very weak. He can't even use the bug-level ability of "口文大大" to him, at most he can only blow candles.
But Li Mu knew in his heart how evil this ability was. If his realm was improved, it would be no longer a candle.
He can kill people with his mouth!
For example, Changsun Wuji, go to die!
The ability of Tianxian to hold Tianxian will make Changsun Wuji die because this is "Tianxian" and it is the will of heaven and cannot be violated.
Of course, if he wants to do this, the premise is that Li Mu himself is strong enough to suppress Changsun Wuji's state of fortune and fate, etc. If he let Changsun Wuji die now, he will only get backlash.
When Li Mu just got this ability, he was very distressed. Because this skill is like summoning heroic souls to possess it, it is a skill with the stronger the stronger the realm of his own, the more effective it can be.
If you have always been a weak person, this skill is probably useless, so you can use it to blow candles.
And he lost all his skills and his martial arts path was blocked. What other ways can he improve his realm?
Li Mu thought of a strange technique.
游戏之中,也是有异术之说的.比方说在游戏里,鞠仙儿的主线之中,就有关于异术的剧情.鞠仙儿曲意逢迎,暗中学会了苗疆蛊术,给李承乾下了蛊,最终李承乾肠穿肚烂而亡,死状十分凄惨.
A strange technique like witchcraft also has three major realms in the game, nine small realms, which correspond one by one to the path of martial arts.
However, it is very difficult to learn, and the conditions are quite harsh. Not everyone can meet the learning requirements, and even if they are satisfied, he, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, did not have the opportunity to learn witchcraft.
Li Mu racked his brains and finally came up with a solution for him.
