Li Mu had said this, so how could Changsun Wuji have the nerve to let him spend money? Li Mu couldn't fight, so he had to give up the "payment right" to Changsun Wuji.
It happened to be almost noon, and the group of people took a carriage and headed straight for the heaven and earth. After coming out of Zhuluhou Mansion, Changsun Wuji's face turned a little dark. Li Mu was really embarrassed, saying that the whole family was celebrating,
It was really the whole family who sent out a car. I don’t know where he hired the car. He took the concierge and the maids with him and drove majestically towards the heaven and the earth.
When he arrived in the world of heaven and earth, Changsun Wuji's face became even more ugly. Because he found that Li Mu had invited too many people. Wang, Wang Pu, Dugu Xiude, Gao Shilian, Yuchi Huan, Li Ying, Cui Yongren and others were all there.
Basically, all the shareholders of Datang Mining and Datang Salt came here. Everyone who went to 'visit the doctor' yesterday, every one of them, was invited.
How much does this cost?
The cheapest banquet in heaven and earth costs ten guan per table, not including drinks. Looking around, the whole place is full of people, at least there are eight or more tables. Even eating and drinking, it doesn't cost more than three or four.
Bai Guan?
You don’t have to spend any money to co-author, so you’re just so deceptive, aren’t you?
Changsun Wuji resisted the urge to have an attack, and planned to go and greet Li Yuan first. Let's not talk about Li Yuan's place. As a junior, he should greet Li Yuan. He had to let Li Yuan know who paid for this meal, otherwise he would spend hundreds of dollars on it.
Guan Ke died so unjustly.
Changsun Wuji was about to go upstairs when suddenly a wheelchair stopped in front of him. When Changsun Wuji saw Li Mu, no matter how good he was in cultivating qi, he felt uncomfortable after being treated in a way, but he still smiled and said
: "I was just going to pay my respects to the Supreme Emperor. What, is there anything wrong?"
"No, no, no, it's not that I have something wrong. It's just that I see that Uncle Guo's face doesn't look very good. Is it because I've invited too many people? This is my negligence. I originally planned to treat myself to celebrate my acceptance as a disciple.
I'm overjoyed. Uncle Guo also knows how the boy behaves. He treats money like dirt. Spend more or less. I don't care at all. But I didn't expect that Uncle Guo would have to rush to pay the bill. The boy can't compete, and again
There was no way to call back the people who went to treat the guests, so this embarrassing scene occurred. Otherwise, it would be better if our table was treated by Uncle Guo, and I would treat the rest. What did Uncle Guo think?
"
What a loss!
Changsun Wuji cursed in his heart, this kid is full of evil. You are unwilling to accept my son as your disciple, so you are trying to bully me with your words. If I do what you say, wouldn't you take advantage of me? That's all, just a few hundred strings.
It’s just money. Although it hurts, it’s not something I can’t afford!
Changsun Wuji squeezed out a smile and said: "Although I have not reached the level where you regard money as dirt, I am not short of money for this meal. It is a blessing to have many friends. Since we have agreed that I will spend the money, you
Just stop fighting."
"Alas," Li Mu sighed and said, "I didn't expect that besides me, there are such generous people in Chang'an City." He turned back and looked at the young Eunuch Chen next to him, and said, "Mr. Chen, have you seen that?
, did you hear that, uncle Guo ordered that he treat this meal as a treat. Uncle Guo is obviously a man who is not short of money. He will serve me all the good wine and food. Especially since no one orders on weekdays, he dare not order.
Every one of our expensive dishes is served here. We don’t want them to be delicious, but they want them to be the most expensive. The grand uncle’s treat must be pompous. I remember that we have rehearsed singing and dancing in heaven and on earth, and we have also arranged them today.
I am very happy to have accepted you as a disciple, I must make you feel at home!"
Of course, Little Eunuch Chen recognized Changsun Wuji, and he could also hear that Li Mu was trying to trick him. If it had been in the palace before, Little Eunuch Chen might have hesitated, but now he is in heaven and on earth.
He's the manager. The business in Heaven and Earth has never been very good, but if he catches a "big job" once, how can he let it go? It's a trap for everyone. Anyway, there is Li Mu in front of him, so what is he afraid of?
I agreed immediately and went back to the kitchen to make preparations.
No matter how much Changsun Wuji endured, he had almost reached his limit. He took a deep breath, walked around Li Mu's wheelchair, and went upstairs.
Li Mu looked at his back and sneered in his heart. After experiencing this incident, Li Mu finally figured out that all benevolence, justice and morality are fucking bullshit. Everyone is just using each other. He organized the company and asked Changsun Wuji to wait.
People invest in stocks and make money while lying down. When something happens to them, everyone is waiting and watching. Everyone who helps to say something should not be annoyed? Don't be angry?
After Li Mu chewed what Li Shimin said carefully, he felt that it was fart. He used himself as an example, meaning that even if I am the emperor, I will be wronged. What do you, Li Mu, have to say? Isn't it normal to be a little wronged?
It sounds like that, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t stand up to scrutiny!
It is normal for you to be wronged because you are the emperor. That is because the world belongs to you. It is normal for you to be wronged when you are running your own business. This world is not mine, so why should I be wronged on your behalf? Isn’t it just because you are the emperor and have control over the world?
He has the power of life and death, but he speaks forcefully. Is it okay to quibble?
Obviously it is unfair, but secretly it can be done. Li Mu has his own way. If he suffers a loss here, he can make up for it elsewhere, and he can always find a psychological balance. This is also the purpose of asking him to have a valley. This is true for Li Shimin, but not for his eldest grandson.
It's even more the same with taboo. I don't want to accept your son as my disciple. If you force me to accept him, then I will have to squeeze you, disgust you, and make you lose some money. Aren't you happy? Okay, don't let you.
Wouldn’t it be enough for my son to be my apprentice?
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Anyone who thinks they can have a free lunch is an idiot!
Li Mu suddenly felt that his anger was a bit heavy, and it seemed that he needed to replenish it with bird's nest. Li Mu snapped his fingers, Li Chongyi bent down and grabbed the back of the wheelchair, effortlessly picked up the wheelchair, and moved Li Mu'
He went up to the second floor and pushed him to the private room where Bai Qiaoqiao and others were.
…
Eunuch Gao got the three 'big yellow croakers' from Li Mu, so he naturally wanted to get things done. He sent his 'children and grandchildren' to the homes of the censors to spread the news. He himself returned to the palace and reported to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin burst out laughing when he saw Eunuch Gao's imitation of Li Mu's expression. Eunuch Gao was also a wonderful man. Although he had no resemblance to Li Mu at all, he had the same nose and eyes when imitating him, making people think of him.
"This kid is probably crazy. There is nothing he can do. This is God's will. Who would have thought that Lu Zhilin's father would die at this time? And the news came so coincidentally that he would have gotten what he wanted just one day later...
..." After saying that, Li Shimin asked curiously: "How did Lu Zhilin react?"
Eunuch Gao sighed and said truthfully: "Lu Zhilin didn't look sad at all. Instead, his eyes were quite happy. From Yi Laonu's point of view, this man... doesn't look like a filial son."
The evaluation of a filial son is more serious for an official than saying that he is corrupt and bending the law. Sure enough, after hearing this, Li Shimin frowned and said: "He should really be dismissed from his official position first. How can such a person do this?"
What about becoming a censor? How disgusting!"
Gao Gonggong said: "Your Majesty, according to your Majesty's instructions, after asking Zhulu Hou, the old slave went to Lu Zhilin's house and told him that he must be allowed to Ding You. Guess what, Lu Zhilin has already packed his things and packed them all.
Car, after getting permission, I went out with the old slave, I guess we have already arrived outside the city by this time."
"Hateful!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I won't mention him anymore. This time something happened to Li Mu, my father also sent people to ask questions several times, but I never got a reply. Now that things have become clearer, my father's side
, I still have to go take a look. Senior officials, go prepare the car, let’s go to heaven and earth.”
"promise."
Eunuch Gao prepared the car, and Li Shimin also changed into casual clothes. The master and servant left the palace gate without any entourage, turned around and arrived at the heaven and earth.
After getting off the carriage, Li Shimin was quite surprised. He knew that the business in Heaven and Earth was not very good. On weekdays, there were only a few tables of guests during dinner time. But today, when he saw that the carriage was full, it was obvious that there were many guests.
Is it possible that after a few days of absence, business has improved?
The two of them walked in. The waiter was a maid in the palace, so she naturally recognized Li Shimin. However, because of his words, Li Yuan was the greatest in this world. Although Li Shimin was the emperor, there was no need to pay homage to him here.
Seeing Li Shimin, the waiter bowed slightly, said "Welcome" and got out of the way.
Li Shimin came here often and did not feel neglected. He stopped a waiter and asked: "Why are there so many customers today?"
"Reporting to your majesty, today is a great event for Marquis Zhulu to accept a disciple, so we have invited many guests to gather together."
"Accepting a disciple?" Li Shimin looked at Eunuch Gao, who also looked confused and said: "Your Majesty, I didn't hear about this when I left."
Li Shimin asked again: "Who is it?"
The waiter replied: "He is the crown prince of Zhao Guogong."
"Nonsense!" Li Shimin frowned and said, "The prince of Duke Zhao is the same generation as Li Mu, and he is older than Li Mu. How can he become a disciple?"
The waiter has been in this hall all the time, and happened to overhear the conversation at the 'apprenticeship ceremony' just now. In order to show the grandeur, and also to allow the guests present to bear witness, he just repeated what happened in Zhuluhou Mansion in the lobby on the first floor.
The old story of "born before me, born after me" was repeated again, which really put Changsun Wuji through a lot of trouble.
The waiter then learned what she heard and learned it from Li Shimin. When Li Shimin heard that Changsun Wuji was there, he personally took his eldest son to the apprenticeship, and he felt dumbfounded. The Changsun Wuji he knew was not like this.
You are the one who got into something extraordinary. What happened? Changsun Wuji actually asked his eldest son to become Li Mu as his disciple?
Li Shimin waved his hand and the waiter withdrew. He went upstairs along the stairs, intending to find Changsun Wuji and ask what was going on.
At this moment, Li Shimin heard Li Mu's voice.
I saw Li Mu sitting in a wheelchair, leaning against the railing on the second floor, with a wine bottle in his left hand and a wine glass in his right hand. He looked at the people in the lobby on the first floor with drunken eyes, burped after drinking, and said: "Everyone! Everyone!
"
Attracting everyone's attention, Li Mu smiled and said, "Everyone, listen to me!"
"Today, I, Li Mu, am very happy to accept a disciple. Changsun Chong! Now he is my disciple! Master, master, a teacher is like a father, and an apprentice is like a son. Changsun Chong,
Now he is just like my son."
When everyone heard this, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare. They didn't know whether Li Mu was drunk and talking nonsense, or whether he was deliberately making fun of him. Li Mu's expression was very serious, but it didn't look like he was talking nonsense, which made people a little unpredictable.
Li Mu burped again and continued: "To tell you the truth, what am I, Li Mu, capable of? What can I teach you? How can I be a teacher to others?"
Li Shimin nodded slightly, okay, this kid is self-aware.
"I'm just... a bit of a genius. If others can do it, I can do it after thinking about it. If others can't, I can do it after thinking about it. Others can't make poems, so I just made them casually. Other than that
, the appearance can be considered handsome, there is nothing more. Oh, it can also make a little money, that's all, I really can't think of any other advantages!"
"..."
Li Shimin glared at Li Mu fiercely, and thought to himself, I was relieved just now, you kid, you are really arrogant.
Although this is the voice of everyone present, no one dares to say it. Because in fact, Li Mu is telling the truth. It sounds arrogant, but if it is done arrogantly, it cannot be regarded as arrogant.
Li Mu sighed and said: "To be honest, I am not satisfied with Changsun Chong's disciple. If I teach him something that I know how to do, can he learn it? For example, I know how to blacksmith, and I see my brother carrying
Did you hit the giant ax? This is what I hit! Can Changsun Chong learn it? He... can't learn it!"
"Writing poetry? It's all in vain."
"But I have to give Uncle Guo some face, so I accepted him as my disciple." Li Mu waved his hand and shouted to Changsun Chong opposite: "Disciple, don't be angry! You have to remember that you are
The most useless! As a teacher, I won’t have any expectations for you. You just learn from me and you will be counted as much as you learn. If you don’t learn, you will be kicked down. Don’t feel any pressure!”
"You!" Changsun Chong couldn't hold it anymore and was about to get angry when he was grabbed by Changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji shook his head and winked in Li Shimin's direction. Changsun Chong saw it and suppressed his anger.
Be honest.
Li Mu smiled again, poured a glass of wine, spilled half of it, and drank half of it himself.
"To be honest with you all, my mood has not been very good recently. You all know the reason, so I won't explain it clearly. I just mentioned poetry, and today there are so many friends here. I am very happy, and my thoughts on writing are like diarrhea. It's really...
...Ah, I’m wrong, my thoughts are flowing like a fountain, almost! Haha..." Li Mu smiled stupidly and said, "Write a poem for everyone, and it will make you smile."
When everyone heard that Li Mu was going to write a poem, they all became attentive. Li Mu's poems are one of a kind, and they are never bad. What poem will he write this time?
