Li Shimin was telling him that this luminous pearl is just like my heart. If you hold it in your hand, it is like you have captured my heart. If you are willing, I welcome you at any time.
Although this sentence is not a direct promise, it is not much different. Li Shimin is the emperor, and he can say such words, which shows that he still has 'Miss Wang' in his heart. It should be noted that he is an emperor, and Wang Ou has already
It was a widow. An emperor made a promise to a widow. Without courage, it would never be possible. But there were some things that were not stated clearly, such as identity.
Li Shimin did not say what status he would give Wang Ou. Is it a concubine? Or a female official? He did not say.
Li Shimin thought this way. Wang Ou's request for this imperial edict was simply because he wanted to be protected. And in the world, is there anything more secure than being protected by the emperor?
Moreover, the situation at this time is also different from thirteen years ago. Thirteen years ago, Li Shimin was only the second son of Tang Guogong, but now, he is the emperor of the world. The family that he could not reach back then has now been taken over by him.
Trampled under his feet. Of course, there is another most important reason, and that is Queen Changsun.
The relationship between Li Shimin and Empress Changsun was like childhood sweethearts, with bumps and tumbles, ups and downs, and they went side by side. Although he once fell in love with Miss Wang, they had no relationship with each other. Instead, it was Empress Changsun who accompanied him in his childhood, youth, and
In the end, she married him and experienced many ups and downs with him. In Li Shimin's heart, the status of Queen Changsun was irreplaceable.
Empress Changsun is not a jealous person. Li Shimin’s four concubines and hundreds of beautiful girls were all chosen by Empress Changsun. But you must know that no matter what their previous status, these people are not widows. Li Shimin
Although there were widows in his harem, the nature of those widows was different. Li Shimin killed his younger brother Li Yunji and took Li Yuanji's concubines into the harem. This was an act of conquest. Although it was not in line with etiquette, there was no one.
Dare to say, because it touches the reverse scale.
But if Li Shimin wants to marry a folk widow, and this person crosses the two clans of Wang and Cui, not to mention whether it is ridiculous or not, even these two clans will resist to death. If they do, they will die in the world.
His saliva was hit.
Li Shimin is also destined to become a foolish king. According to Queen Changsun's temper, she will never agree.
But if it is just for protection, and a house is built in Chang'an City without any fanfare, then it doesn't matter. Queen Changsun will not care, the civil and military officials of the court will not be unhappy, and the powerful family will not be embarrassed, but they will feel that Wang Ou is a link
, can bring the relationship closer to the emperor.
And Li Shimin himself not only got a beauty, but also got a net worth from a beauty, killing two birds with one stone.
An emperor never values the love of his children.
Li Shimin didn't tell her clearly just to leave room for himself. If the matter was leaked, he could also say that the meaning of this letter was that with Mrs. Peony's help today, I will also help her in the future. Although it is far-fetched,
But it can also be fooled.
But Li Shimin believed that with Wang Ou's intelligence, he would be able to understand the real meaning.
The letter and the night pearl arrived in Wang Ou's hands, but there was no movement for three days. Three days later, Wang Ou left Chang'an for Luoyang, and he never showed up in Chang'an again. The letter and the night pearl were also lost, but Wang Ou
When he left, he left another 100,000 guan with Cheng Yaojin, saying that if the disaster relief was not enough, he could lend it to the court, but the 100,000 guan had to be returned.
Li Shimin was furious, but when he was angry, he was angry, so why should he be held accountable? The first hundred thousand gu was used to buy his life, and the second 100,000 gu was used to help you tide over the crisis. Is it just because
If people don't want to commit themselves to you, they will become angry... If this reputation spreads, you will be a bullshit wise king!
Moreover, Li Shimin himself felt guilty. He knew that his feelings for Miss Wang at this time were no longer as innocent as before. The heart-breaking feeling he felt when he read that letter would never be the same again. At this time, he
All the thoughts he had towards Wang Ou were nothing more than unwillingness.
The matter was settled. Li Shimin turned around and immediately repaid Wang Ou's 100,000 guan, and paid interest on 3,000 guan in accordance with the lending rules at that time. From then on, the money and goods were settled, and there was no more dispute.
Later, Li Shimin devoted himself to planning major Turkic affairs, and Miss Wang was buried deep in his memory and rarely appeared.
If I hadn't seen this luminous pearl today, these memories would not have surfaced.
As for this luminous pearl, it is absolutely impossible to admit it. This pearl was a tribute tribute from the Kingdom of Siam during the Sui Dynasty. It is the only one in the world. Its value cannot be measured in money. Li Shimin gave this pearl to
Wang Ou, also because of male chauvinism, is never willing to take advantage of a woman.
I just didn't expect that this bead would be here.
Miss Wang, why did you give this bead to Li Mu? I gave it to you. I also said that it is like my heart. Do you really not care about my thoughts at all? Or do you?
Say, between you and Li Mu...
Li Shimin suddenly became angry. Although he and Wang Ou were not destined for various reasons, it did not mean that others could get involved with the woman he liked. Li Mu, a young boy, why should he...
"..."
Li Shimin's thinking suddenly paused, as if something was wrong. He thought again: Li Mu, a young boy... Yes, Li Mu is a young boy. He is only seventeen years old. How could he have a relationship with Miss Wang?
What's there? At Miss Wang's age, if she had given birth early, she would have given birth to a child as big as him!
In this era, men who are more than ten years older than women often get together, but if the reverse is true, it is almost impossible.
Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh, sighed, and said: "What are I thinking? How is it possible..."
Suddenly a face appeared in front of him, which startled Li Shimin. Li Shimin almost slapped him with his palm, but when he took a closer look, he found that it was Li Mu. He was holding a chicken leg and his mouth was full of oil. Li Shimin frowned and scolded: "You are such a bad boy.
That's rude, why did you suddenly appear in front of me?"
Li Mu wiped his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, why are you standing on my workbench? I was worried that you would fall, so I came up to protect you."
Li Shimin looked around and immediately blushed. It turned out that he had climbed onto Li Mu's workbench at some point and had already held the Night Pearl in his hand. Li Shimin jumped down quickly, and Li Mu also followed. Li Shimin cleared up in embarrassment.
He lowered his throat, put the luminous pearl on the workbench, and asked, "Don't eat it yet. I ask you, where did you get this pearl?"
There is nothing to hide. Li Mu said truthfully: "The Ministry of Industry has moved to the government office. Sister Ou congratulated me and gave me a gift." Li Mu glanced at Ye Mingzhu and saw that Li Shimin was so arrogant that he got on the workbench and wanted to take down Ye Mingzhu.
, thinking that he liked it, and although he was reluctant to part with it, he still pretended to be generous and said: "If Your Majesty likes it, I will give it to Your Majesty. It will not be of much use. It just saves money on candles at night."
Seeing that Li Mu spoke so calmly, Li Shimin felt even more angry for some reason, and cursed: "Since it is a gift given to you by others, you should cherish it, why do you give it to others so easily?"
Li Mu thought to himself, you think I am willing to give it to you. If it weren't for the fact that you are the emperor and my boss, would I give it to you?
But I couldn't say anything, and I didn't know what to say, so I had to lower my head and remain silent.
Li Shimin was still angry and asked again: "Who did you say gave you this gift just now? Sister Ou? This person is Cheng Aiqing's younger brother and sister? Did you call him Sister Ou?"
Hearing these words, Li Mu sensed that something was wrong. It seemed like he was raising an army to accuse him. Could it be that between His Majesty and Sister Ou... Li Mu quickly cheered up and answered carefully: "Your Majesty, this title, yes, what's wrong with it?"
Is it appropriate?"
"How can you call her sister? She is Cheng Aiqing's younger sibling, the same age as me. If you call her sister, wouldn't it mess up the hierarchy?"
"Ah, this..." Li Mu really had nothing to say. According to his seniority, it was really wrong to call him sister. Seeing that Li Shimin was so angry, Li Mu had no choice but to laugh and said, "I know I was wrong."
Li Shimin snorted coldly and said, "You have to respect her and call her aunt, remember?"
Aunt? Li Mu subconsciously thought of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu, Your Majesty, I am a pure young man, you can't lead me astray like this!
Li Mu thought this in his heart, but nodded obediently and said: "I know, when we meet again, we will call you Aunt Ou."
"That's pretty much it." Li Shimin glanced at Ye Mingzhu again, and couldn't help but ask: "When did she come to Chang'an, and how did you and her... come to know each other?"
Li Mu kept peeking at Li Shimin's reaction. He had known Li Shimin for a long time, and he had never seen him with such a coquettish side. He was even more sure that there must be something fishy between the two of them, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to
He told how he and Wang Ou met. Li Shimin had no expression on his face after hearing this, but Li Mu could see the feeling of shame in his eyes.
As an emperor, you still feel ashamed?
Li Mu couldn't help but be very curious. Did these two people... have anything when they were young?
So bloody?
After a long time, Li Shimin said: "This Miss Wang is an old acquaintance of mine. When I first came to the throne, the Yellow River flooded, the treasury was empty, and there was no money for disaster relief. She donated 100,000 guan and lent me another 100,000 guan.
Overcoming the difficulties. I was grateful for her righteous deeds and named her the first-grade Peony Lady. But I still felt guilty in my heart. The help she gave me was real, but the help I gave her was just in name. I know
You have many ways to make money in your head. If you can help her, please do it for my sake."
Is it just that? Li Mu was deeply doubtful. He had lived in two lives and had a lot of experience of falling out of love in his previous life. The way Li Shimin looked now was clearly a sign of his everlasting love for his ex-girlfriend.
Li Mu nodded seriously and said: "I accept the order."
"Well." Li Shimin was an emperor after all, and he quickly adjusted his mood and said: "Didn't you let me see your important weapon? It's getting late, so bring it to me quickly. I have to rush back.
