The matter was so serious that Li Shimin couldn't make up his mind for a while and left in a hurry. Changsun Wuji and others had no intention of continuing the banquet, so they all left and returned home. Each of them represents a force, and Tu Li's death may bring about a
They had to consider the series of chain reactions and prepare countermeasures in advance. However, the banquet continued. After all, this matter had nothing to do with the merchants. Even if seven or eight more Turkic Khans died, they would not be able to stop them from doing business.
.
Don't worry about things that don't concern you, that's how human nature is.
Li Mu also returned to his private room, as if nothing was wrong, and continued to talk and chat with the guests. As the night went on, the guests left one after another, and it became deserted. It was almost midnight, and the night was already deep. The waiters came out to clean up.
, Li Mu saw the red-eyed Li Yourong coming down from upstairs and walking to the corner alone. He hesitated for a moment, but followed him.
Although we have no friendship with each other, after all, she is someone Li Siwen liked, and she is related to Li Yuan. If she goes to seek death, it would be fine if she didn't see it. Since she has seen it, she can't turn a blind eye.
Hearing the news of Tu Li's death, Li Yourong felt a big stone unloaded in his heart. After Tu Li died, her identity would never be revealed again. Even if Princess Huainan stood up to accuse her, she could use Tu Li to discord with her.
She was excused for not telling her many things, and as for other people, there was no need to worry.
Li Yourong sneaked out because he wanted to deliver a message to Zhang Xun. Although Zhang Xun had already returned to Longyou, in order to facilitate contact, he left behind the two brothers, Ada and Aer, who could not speak Chinese.
He still runs a barbecue business in the West Market. Li Yourong occasionally goes to the West Market and will buy some barbecue from their shop and exchange news. When it is not convenient to come and go, there is a way. When you go out from the back door of the Heaven and Earth, there is an old tree diagonally across the corner.
There was a rotten tree hole at the root of the tree. Li Yourong made an agreement with them that she would write the message on a small piece of paper in Turkic characters, ball it up and throw it into the tree hole. A'er would come here every day to take a look.
When you get the note, you will take it away.
Li Yourong secretly wrote the note. Unfortunately, there were too many people downstairs, so he waited until the guests had dispersed before coming downstairs. Even the people in the kitchen would come out to help clean up at this time, which was the least likely time to be discovered.
But Li Mu happened to see it.
Li Yourong had just walked out of the back door. Before she could reach the old tree, she heard another creak of the door opening behind her. She was so frightened that her whole body tensed up. She reached into her arms and touched the cold handle of the scimitar.
.
"Hey!"
Suddenly a hand was placed on his shoulder, and Li Yourong subconsciously wanted to pull out the scimitar, but stopped abruptly. She recognized Li Mu's voice, took a deep breath to calm down, turned around and said sadly: "What are you doing?
Are you quarreling with me again? I'm in a bad mood right now, and I can't even just take a break, okay?"
"That's not what I meant." Li Mu took his hand back. The moon was very bright tonight, allowing him to see Li Yourong's face.
"I was worried that you were seeking death, so I came out to take a look. Since you didn't mean that, I left without disturbing you."
After saying that, Li Mu turned around. Li Yourong frowned strangely and suddenly asked, "Are you also worried about my life and death? If I die, won't I fulfill your wish?"
Li Mu turned around and said: "Don't think of people so bad? What good will it do to me if you die? Although I don't like you, I don't hate you either! On the contrary, if you are alive,
, and you can also play chess with the old man, which is of some use, isn’t it?”
Although the words were unpleasant, a hint of concern could still be heard. Li Yourong breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Li Mu had noticed something, which made her feel somewhat guilty. She did not expect that Li Mu would be worried about her.
There was an awkward silence. Li Yourong didn't know what to say, so he faltered and said, "I, I'm just in a bad mood, nothing's wrong."
"I can understand."
"Um?"
Li Mu hesitated for a moment and said: "There once was a person who was very kind to me. He took care of me a lot, but I was very young at the time and had no ability to repay him. When I was able, he passed away." Suddenly.
Li Mu sighed, smiled again, and there seemed to be a little sparkle in his eyes, and said: "When he was alive, I always got into trouble and made him angry. Thinking about it, I really shouldn't... Your mood is probably similar to mine.
, your uncle is also very kind to you, isn't he?"
"Uh..." Everything Li Yourong said was a lie. How could Li Mu feel this way? Seeing Li Mu being so emotional, he was a little stunned for a moment and stammered: "I, I don't know."
"It took me a long time to understand... Well, it's like we have been together for two lifetimes!"
Li Yourong couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked, "Is this person you are talking about...a relative of yours?"
"He is... my master, he can be considered a relative."
In fact, the person Li Mu was talking about was the old dean of the orphanage where he lived in his previous life. When the old dean passed away, he cried miserably, but no one comforted him at that time. He felt that Li Yourong probably needed it too.
It was a little comfort, so I came out to take a look.
At this time, Li Zhien's voice came calling him, and Li Mu responded and said to Li Yourong: "Being sad is inevitable, but it is useless. After all, you can't just let him go. You have to live your life. Think about what you can do for him.
What. Time is the best medicine. After a few months or a few years, this person's appearance will become blurry. By that time, even if you think about it, you can only remember a few memories, but not his.
Looks good."
"I'm leaving first. You should go back early and don't let the old man worry."
Li Mu turned around, raised his hand and waved away. Li Yourong stared blankly at Li Mu's back and thought to himself: "He still has a master? This is new news."
…
Because it was too late, Li Mu and Li Zhien did not go back to Jingdong, but rested for the night at Wang Ou's mansion. Only then did Li Zhien know that Wang Ou had a house on the edge of heaven and earth, and he immediately understood.
No wonder a while ago, Li Mu ran to heaven and earth when he had nothing to do. It turned out to be for a private meeting!
The jealousy jar was overturned immediately, and she became depressed. It was Li Mu who used the magical skill of touching and touched the little girl until she was as limp as mud, which made her happy. However, when she woke up the next day, the little girl still felt a little strange. Why did she feel so strange yesterday?
Did you fall asleep in a daze? Normally, I don’t sleep like this!
Hearing Li Zhien's muttering, Li Mu looked away guiltily. After all, it is not honorable to seduce his own woman with scent. But there is no way. He has two wives to serve. As a philanthropic person, how can he only care about one?
, what about neglecting the other?
After having breakfast in a guilty conscience, Li Mu asked Wang Ou to arrange a vehicle to take Li Zhien back to Jingdong. He called Dugujiu, who had slept alone in the guest room all night, and drove to the Ministry of Industry in his luxury RV.
A lot of people have gathered in the small square in front of the Ministry of Works Yamen. A small table has been set up near the steps. Next to it is a sign with the words 'Registration Office' in three big words, and a line of small words at the bottom 'Registration fee is one yuan'.
Bai Guan will not be returned if you fail the assessment. There are two large boxes on the left and right. Pearl is collecting money and Wei Yingluo is keeping accounts.
Li Mu did not let Dugujiu move forward, but stopped the car far away. His luxury car was too eye-catching, and passing directly would definitely disturb the order. Li Mu got out of the car and strolled over. Suddenly a horse roared
Li Mu immediately frowned as he walked past him.
I saw a young man getting off his horse and striding towards the middle of the queue, looking like he was about to jump in line. Of course, the people in the queue gave up. They were all young men, young and vigorous, and they couldn't agree with each other. This young man actually raised his fist.
"Oh, it's a problem!"
"I want to see who you are!" Li Mu walked over quickly, and the closer he got, the more familiar the young man's figure seemed to him. When he came to take a look, his jaw dropped. This young man, actually
It’s Li Xiaogong’s precious son Li Chongyi!
Li Mu quickly pulled them away, kicked one of them, and cursed: "What kind of place is this? How dare you fight here? Do you deserve a beating?"
Li Chongyi was about to show off his father when he suddenly saw it was Li Mu and said in surprise: "Brother! It's you! Great, this kid is bullying me!"
When the young people around him saw Li Chongyi calling Li Mu ‘big brother’, their hearts froze. This young man turned out to be Zhuluhou’s younger brother. How could this lawsuit be fought?
"Stop farting, I've seen it all. You're coming here on a big horse, and you're going to jump in line when you get here. Whose father are you? Apologize!"
"Brother..."
Li Muhu said with a face: "I asked you to apologize, didn't you hear it?"
Li Chongyi stared at Li Mu for a while, but he was no match for him. He apologized angrily. How could the young man who had a conflict with him dare to pursue him? He waved his hands repeatedly and gave up his position. Li Chongyi was serious.
To accept it, Li Mu pulled him out of the team and pulled him aside.
"Brother, why can't I sign up? I want to sign up too, I don't want to stay at home all day!"
Li Mu sighed and said: "Chongyi, let's not talk about your registration for now. Does your father know whether he will let you register? Even if your father allows you to register, you have to understand what is meant by first come, first served, right? Why do you say that?
Queuing up, you won’t queue up?”
"My father is"
"Your father is your father, and you are you! Your father went to battle to kill the enemy, and your father made great achievements. What did you do? Why should you let others give in to you?"
"Oh..." Li Chongyi fell silent and looked at Li Mu eagerly, saying: "Brother, I know I was wrong, so will you let me sign up?"
Li Mu grimaced and said, "You have to ask your father about this matter. I can't be your master."
"Alas..." Seeing Li Mu's attitude, Li Chongyi suddenly dropped his head like a deflated rubber ball. He silently turned around and walked towards his horse. He sighed as he walked and muttered: "I knew it.
!What a big brother, forget it...Okay, then I will follow my father's example of eating, drinking and having fun, and be a dandy..."
