Zhang Tianai was a little puzzled and said: "Husband, I don't understand very well. Most people in Jianghu go their own way and are not easy to control. Those who follow the rules will not become Jianghu people. If you rule them like this, will they abide by it?"
"It's okay if they don't comply." Li Mu said calmly: "There are two ways for them to choose. Either they leave the Tang Dynasty and we won't stop them, or they become enemies of the imperial court. Those who are enemies of the imperial court will be killed without mercy. Follow me.
Those who go against me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish. Slowly we will behave ourselves."
"Well -" Zhang Tianai didn't know what to say. In her impression, Li Mu was not so murderous. When they talked about something in the past, his solution was usually not to kill someone, but now, he can be very calm.
He said the word 'kill'.
But when she thought about what Li Mu did in Gaochang City, she was not surprised. Her husband had never had a good temper, and he would never show mercy when it was time to kill him. She just couldn't understand why Li Mu would do anything to him.
Jianghu people are so strict.
In fact, Li Mu's idea is very simple. He just wants to restrain the civil force. Of course he knows that it is impossible to restrain it completely, but it is not in vain. Firstly, it cannot be completely restrained, but it can restrain part of it. Secondly, it can be restrained partially.
To distinguish between sects that do not register,
Obviously he did not take the court into consideration, in other words, he was a target who was 'uncooperative' in his work. In the end, this was Li Mu's real purpose. If the court 'banned' or 'attacked' these uncooperative targets in the future,
Then it's 'don't blame me for not predicting what I said'.
And Li Mu also had a purpose in attacking these people. For the sake of the imperial court, "Han Feizi" once said that Confucianism used literature to disrupt the law, and chivalrous people used martial arts to violate the ban. This sentence of Confucianism using literature to disrupt the law was used during the reign of Li Shimin
, basically it will not happen, because Li Shimin was a strong emperor and the founding king of the country. All civil servants and generals, even those who outspoken and remonstrated, such as Wei Zheng, were actually
However, he has no ability to shake his foundation. This is different from the kings of later generations. Even the kings of later generations, such as Li Zhizhi, when he succeeded to the throne, there were some elders or "ministers who take care of life" to "guide" him, such as Li Zhizhi.
For example, in the generation of eldest grandson Wuji, powerful ministers and noble relatives wielded power, but in Li Shimin's generation, this situation could not happen. Therefore, there is no need to worry about Confucianism using literature to mess up the law for the time being.
But the phrase "Xia uses martial arts to suppress the ban" is something we need to worry about right now. Among other things, in the previous assassinations, the one in Xiaoyao Valley, although people from the Six Clan were the main force, there were also some "Heshuo Heroes"
'Involved in it, and the assassination that Li Mu suffered in Mayi, after investigating the root cause, it was basically people from the Jianghu. They knew martial arts and had abilities beyond ordinary people. Because of this, they were attracted by some people with ulterior motives and became a hidden danger.
But if they are regulated by sects and bound into an interest group, they will have scruples when doing things. At the same time, they can win over some of them and use them for the imperial court. Using them to restrain themselves is also a province for the imperial court.
A way to save effort.
As for Li Mu's own considerations, he also had his own difficulties.
He needs people urgently.
He needs people to work for him, to handle court affairs, to handle his own affairs, and even to die. The people Li Shimin gave him can be used, but their loyalty cannot be guaranteed. After so many things,
He could not completely trust Li Shimin. He had to have his own people to protect his loved ones at the most critical moment.
There are people from all walks of life in the world. The layout has just begun, and Li Mu is not in a hurry. He is just worried that his ideas will be noticed by Li Shimin or his enemies prematurely, disrupting his layout.
When he is in a great position, it doesn't matter even if he is noticed. He has enough ability to protect himself, and he also has enough ability to make his opponents afraid.
Li Mu personally picked up the pen and wrote a charter for Jin Yiwei to implement. After the preparations were completed, he went home from get off work with Zhang Tianai. When they got home, Jin Chen had returned and was preparing a charcoal copper pot with Xiaozhu and others. Qiaoqiao is big
Her stomach couldn't help her, so she watched her anxiously and refused to sit down even if she was asked to sit down. Her character was that she couldn't stand being served by others. When she was with Li Zhien at the earliest, she never regarded herself as a person.
Madam, treat Li Zhien as a maid.
It's this kind of character that Li Mu likes so much.
The Li family usually eats at a big table, but after more and more Li Mu’s wives, like Xiaozhu and others, they automatically and consciously opened another table. It was the same today, two tables were prepared, Feng Qiuhuang’s waiter
There are more and more people, and now it’s a bit crowded for them to sit at the same table.
Li Mu looked at the empty space on the table, picked up his chopsticks and couldn't put them down, feeling a little confused. He thought about how he could travel through time, and end up being so miserable that he couldn't even reunite with his family. What's the point of living like this?
But, what if we have to be together? Today's world is not like the world before he traveled. If you can't stay in this country, you can go to another country. In today's world, besides Datang, you can go to
Where? Should we go to the grasslands or the desert and become a barbarian?
"Husband, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Tianai has a straightforward personality and cannot stand Li Mu's sentimental and sighing look every day, so he can't help mumbling. Bai Qiaoqiao looked at him, put down her chopsticks, and held his hand. Jin Chen picked up Zhang Tianai's food, trying to block her.
mouth, not letting her speak anymore.
Li Mu sighed and said: "I don't want to be like this, but I feel sorry for myself before it's time to eat. Now my mother is in Shuzhou, Zhien has returned to Silla, and Sister Ou is nowhere to be found. Big guy, Xiaojiu
My son, Siwen, and adoptive father are all not around, and I feel empty inside. When we first arrived in Chang'an, we lived so happily. How did it become like this?"
It's okay if Li Mu doesn't mention it. When he mentions it, Jin Chen and Zhang Tianai don't feel much about it, but Bai Qiaoqiao can feel the same as Li Mu. Yes, why did it become like this?
"Is it because I don't work hard? Is it because I don't work? If anyone has a problem, I can help them all. I made a fortune of millions of dollars, but in the end I didn't have a word at home, so I gave it all away. Now Chang'an
The city is completely new, and most of it is my money. Isn’t it enough to do this? Why is it that these days are getting worse day by day, and it will never be better as time passes!"
"Are you blaming me for saying that?"
A voice came from the back door, frightening everyone to leave the table and salute. Li Mu glanced at it, then began to speak slowly, and made a salute that was not standard in any way, and said: "Your Majesty, what did you say?
Everything your Majesty did was done willingly, but it was just self-pity and a few complaints, just to add to the laughter."
