Li Mu waved his hand, and several guards looked at each other. One of them said: "Master Hou, please be more careful. I'll be waiting at the door. If anything happens, just shout."
"What can a weak female prostitute do to me? Besides, isn't she tied up?"
The guards retreated and closed the door. Li Mu came to Nazha, looked at her, took the chopsticks out of her mouth, and said, "Who are you?"
Nazha was silent. Li Mu suddenly laughed and said, "Look at how retarded I am for asking this question. It's weird that you can tell me."
Nazha still pretended not to understand and just looked at Li Mu indifferently.
Li Mu moved a bench from the corner, sat down, and said, "Nazha, I know you understand what I'm saying. In fact, I might as well tell you that from the first moment I saw you, I knew you
There must be something wrong. But who gave me such an innocent adopted brother? We both knocked our heads on the ground, and he called me brother, so I had the obligation to protect him."
Seeing Li Mu mentioning Li Siwen, Nazha's eyes finally changed slightly. She was full of apologies for Li Siwen.
"My sworn brother is an unreliable guy. But he has a good heart, is very loyal, and trusts others easily. Although this is a very silly thing, I appreciate this about him.
This is also the reason why I didn't expose you, I couldn't bear the fact that my adopted brother had helped a liar."
"Therefore, I have been thinking about how to make him realize that there is something wrong with you these days."
Li Mu sighed and said, "Unfortunately, I have been busy with many things these days and have not spared any time... but you still took advantage of this."
Silence, looking at each other.
Li Mu suddenly smiled, and when Nazha saw Li Mu's eyes, a chill came from her back for some reason.
"I am a very small-minded person. I don't talk about benevolence, justice and morality. I do things based on my own likes and dislikes. Li Siwen is my adopted brother. You took advantage of him, and I am very angry. You put him in a dangerous situation, and I am even more angry.
Angry. You are still pretending to be stupid with me, and I am already furious."
"I might as well tell you that you only have one night. If you don't tell the truth when the cock crows, I will kill you. Then tell your majesty that you committed suicide out of fear of crime."
Nazha's eyes finally revealed a look of fear. She could tell that Li Mu was not joking, he would really do this.
Li Mu keenly caught the change in Nazha's eyes and continued: "You may think that you are determined to die and are not afraid of death. But I want to remind you that you will die in an unknown way. Your revenge,
There is no way to repay, and you can't even leave a name. You will be abandoned in a mass grave and let wild dogs and wolves bite your body. Maybe some idle men will see your beauty..."
Li Mu sneered and said, "That scene is too unsightly, so I won't even mention it."
"You are despicable."
Nazha finally spoke, speaking fluently in Guanzhong dialect. When Li Mu heard her say this, he suddenly stood up and opened his mouth with his backhand. Blood immediately overflowed from the corners of Nazha's lips!
"You can talk! Why are you pretending!"
Li Mu grabbed Nazha's collar and said angrily: "I don't hit women, but this does not include enemies. Call me despicable? You have ulterior motives and use my adopted brother, you are glorious? Siwen treats you sincerely, you say
He believes every word he says, but what about you? If you treat him sincerely, even if you have grudges and say it, I might still help you. Why would you do such a despicable thing?!"
Nazha looked at Li Mu with a stubborn look and said, "I have my own reasons and don't want to tell you, so just kill me!"
"Oh, don't think that I dare not kill you." Li Mu glanced at the sky outside the window and said, "You still have two hours to live. If you tell everything, maybe I will still see it for Siwen's sake.
I will try to save your life. If you don’t tell me, I will personally send you on your way in two hours.”
"I……"
Just as Nazha said a word, someone suddenly knocked on the door behind her. Li Mu looked back and asked, "Who is it?"
"Boss, we are back."
Li Chongyi's voice, Li Mu glanced at Nazha, picked up the chopsticks on the ground, and closed her mouth again. What he just said was just a trick. Nazha can't die now. If she dies, Li Siwen
I can't explain it clearly. The Tang Dynasty is not a later generation. Let me tell you about justice. Many things do not require laws. If Li Shimin had doubts about Li Siwen because of this matter, Li Siwen's future in this life would be over.
, it will even affect Li Ji, and its influence is far-reaching and incalculable.
Li Mu opened the door, and Li Chongyi walked in holding a baggage in one hand and holding Li Siwen in the other.
When Li Siwen saw Nazha tied to the pillar, he opened his mouth to say something, but was glared at by Li Mu and closed his mouth in a whisper.
"Boss, all her things are here." Li Chongyi handed the baggage to Li Mu, who put it on the ground and opened it. It contained clothes, rouge, some jewelry, and some copper coins. Other than that, there was nothing special.
Suddenly Li Mu frowned and took out a red bellyband from his clothes. Li Siwen couldn't help but said: "Brother, even if Nazha is an assassin, you can't..."
"Shut up!" Li Mu glanced at Nazha, who was looking nervous, and suddenly pulled hard, his bellyband was torn open by him, and a jade token fell down. Li Mu picked up the jade token and took a look, feeling very embarrassed.
He didn't recognize a word of the seal script on it.
But a piece of information came to his mind, letting him know what this jade token was.
[Bishamon Jade Plaque: Li Jiancheng believed in Buddhism and took the small character "Bishamon". The jade plaque was carved by him himself, which means "Many Treasures, Many Blessings".]
Li Jiancheng!
How could Nazha have a jade plaque carved by Li Jiancheng himself? What was their relationship?! Why did she want to assassinate Jieli?
If Nazha is really related to Li Jiancheng, she should assassinate Li Shimin!
Li Mu's head was a little confused. He took a deep look at Nazha and said to Li Chongyi: "Look at her. I'll be back as soon as I go."
Li Chongyi nodded and put his hand on Li Siwen's shoulder. Li Mu turned around and went out, walking straight to the fourth floor along the stairs. After Li Shimin and his family left, Li Yuan went to the club on the fourth floor and invited some close people to drink together. Li Mu hurriedly
He came up, repeatedly confessed, and came to Li Yuan's side and whispered a few words. Li Yuan remained calm, put down the wine glass, and said, "I'm tired today. You guys can help yourself. I'm going to rest first."
"Farewell to the Emperor."
"What is the Supreme Emperor? There is a Supreme Emperor in the palace, and only Duke Jiacheng is here. If anyone calls me the wrong one again, please don't come to this fourth floor!"
Li Yuan dropped these words and, with Li Mu's support, left the club and followed the secret passage stairs to the fifth floor. When this world was designed, it was like a maze, with secret passages everywhere, and you could go up or down.
, the only people who fully know how to use the secret passages are Li Mu and Li Yuan, because the design of these secret passages was not completed by Gongsun Kang alone. All the design plans were summarized in Li Mu's hands, and then they were constructed separately.
Even Gongsun Kang didn't understand it clearly.
As soon as he arrived on the fifth floor, Li Yuan stretched out his hand and said, "Where is the jade plaque?"
"Here it is." Li Mu took out the jade plaque from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yuan. Li Yuan leaned closer to the candlelight, looked at the jade plaque carefully, rubbed it carefully, his eyes became redder and redder, and said: "It is indeed built by my son himself.
At this time... I really didn’t expect that I could see something related to the construction.”
"Where did this thing come from?"
"It was found on a female assassin." Li Mu told Li Yuan the cause and effect without hiding anything. Li Yuan listened carefully and frowned more and more. After Li Mu finished speaking, Li Yuan asked: "That female assassin?
Called Naza?"
"Yeah!" Li Mu nodded.
"A Turk?"
"This is not certain, but she must have Hu ancestry. It can be seen from her appearance."
Li Yuan asked again: "How old is she?"
Li Mu carefully replied: "She won't say, but I guess she is around 20 years old."
"That's it..." Li Yuan looked down at the jade plaque in his hand, sighed, and said, "She... should be Jiancheng's daughter!"
"Daughter?" Li Mu was so shocked that he stuttered and said, "How is this possible, Your Majesty? It wasn't back then..."
"Yes!" Li Yuan nodded and said: "It is true that all the sons, wives and concubines of Jian Jiancheng were killed. But his daughter was spared from the disaster." Li Yuan pointed to Jin Dun not far away and motioned to Li Mu to sit down.
Next, he sat on the chair next to him.
"It's too early to talk about this. When we were still planning the uprising, I was appointed by the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty to be the governor of Taiyuan. Jiancheng took his family and lived in Hedong. At that time, Shimin was just twenty.
He is still a young boy who follows Jiancheng...hehe, in a blink of an eye, so many years have passed."
"At that time, the Sui Dynasty was showing signs of decline, and heroes everywhere were plotting. I was the same, but I couldn't do anything under the eyes of Emperor Yang, so I secretly sent someone to inform Jiancheng and asked him to secretly prepare for an uprising."
"The Turks are powerful. If I raise an army, I must first make friends with the Turks, otherwise I will be attacked from both sides. It is inconvenient for me to come forward, so all the matters of making friends with the Turks are arranged by Jiancheng. At that time, the great Khan of the Turks was not Jieli, but his brother
At the end of the day, there was some quarrel with Emperor Yang, and he promised to send troops to support him, but he asked me to spread the word of self-reliance, otherwise he would not agree."
"The situation was not very clear at that time. I spread the word to the world. If it succeeds, it will be done. But if it doesn't succeed, I will die without a burial place. I didn't trust the Turks, so I didn't agree. I was so angry that I wanted to lead the army to attack and build it.
Taking care of important matters, he went to see Shibi in person and tried his best to lobby, but Shibi stopped fighting, but he made a request to let Jiancheng marry his daughter as an alliance!"
