Chapter 29

Li Shimin was slightly stunned, and smiled, saying, "Yes, you are already an adult... Come and give the seat to Zhulu Hou."

Eunuch Gao brought a Hu chair, and Li Mu sat down, but he was amused and crying. What is Li Shimin saying? It turns out that everyone has known me for so long, and you have always regarded me as a child?

Even though he thought so, he didn't dare to say it out loud and sat honestly.

Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and said, "Li Mu, I have sent someone to investigate you."

"Ah?" Li Mu had certainly guessed it long ago, but he still showed proper surprise, stood up in panic, and bowed, "I am afraid, have you done something wrong? Please tell me clearly."

"Sit down." Li Shimin said: "Don't panic. You did nothing wrong. I'm more suspicious. I sent someone to check it out, but I can't blame me. You guys always show surprises. It's really hard not to make people suspicious. As you said just now, I am the emperor and should be responsible for the world. Since I have decided to use you more, I must know your foundation. Otherwise, if you are a member of the clan, it will be unfavorable to me."

Li Shimin said so bluntly, but Li Mu didn't expect it. He was stunned for a moment, and Li Mu asked, "What can you find out about Your Majesty?"

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "The people I sent have visited Mayi City. From the county magistrate and yamen runners to the neighbors near your home, they have visited them all, and there is nothing unusual. The people I sent are my confidants, and I have no doubts about the news they sent back. But for this, I am even more confused. Why are you just a seventeen-year-old boy? Why are you so capable? Others may not be able to write a poem well at the age of seventeen, but you can express it in a good way?"

"No matter whether it is horseshoe, you must be a person who knows the truth. The people I sent to send a reply, you have no fields in Mayi City, so you should not be familiar with the plough. Then how did you improve the plough?"

"In addition to these, there are many things. For example, if you read, today you quote scriptures and have no mistakes. You even have your own unique insights into the classics of saints. If you say you are learning and selling, then the students in the world are really unbearable. Why do you remember them all the time, but you are a genius?"

Li Mu was shocked and secretly scolded himself for being stupid and forgot to hide his weakness. He thought that as long as he could not catch the evidence, everything would be fine. But now it seems that he still underestimated the ancients. After all, Li Shimin was Li Shimin, so how could he not find something strange? What made Li Mu regret the most was that he ignored a problem. This was the Tang Dynasty, when Li Shimin was the emperor, and the emperor could be unreasonable. He suspected that a person did not need evidence, and he would kill him if he said he could kill him without any reason.

In an instant, cold sweat covered his back. Li Mu swallowed and made up his mind. Now that the matter is, he can only keep his mouth firm.

"Your Majesty, I... can't explain it. I haven't lie. Whether I write poetry or read, I can just take a look... Is this okay?"

Li Shimin said: "I didn't say no, I'm just envious."

Li Mu's heart, who was in his throat, let go of this when he heard this. Boss, you are so naughty. You can't stand being so scared!

"I asked the Imperial Heavenly Prison that Yuan Tiangang had divined you. He told me that you are a Su Hui. I was captured in the Turkic camp, fled to report my life and death, and may have inspired your Su Hui." Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and said, "I didn't believe this statement, but my current performance has forced me to believe it. Li Mu, today you honestly tell me, are you a Su Hui person? What's the matter with Su Hui?"

Li Mu thought to himself, you said so, how dare I say I am not? He turned his mind and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, I don't know what Su Hui is, but after I reported the message, there are indeed some unexplainable things that happened to me."

"What's the matter? Let's talk about it in detail!"

Looking at Li Shimin's curious eyes, Li Mu had to make up and sell it, saying, "I stole the horse and broke out of the Turkic camp that day and was shot by the Turkic scout. Have you said this?"

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "It seems that I have said it, but it doesn't matter if I haven't said it. I already know this, so continue to talk about it."

"This...well, your Majesty can tell that some of the Turkic arrows were applied with medicine, and one of them would cause symptoms of weakness and dizziness after being penetrated into the body..."

Li Shimin was impatient and said, "Pick up important words!"

Li Mu complained in his heart, Boss, I want to pick up important ones, but I have to say some, right? Do you think it's so easy to make up stories! Suddenly, a flash of inspiration in Li Mu's mind, and inspiration came, saying, "Your Majesty, the arrows I was exposed to poison. But no one knew it at that time, and I didn't realize it either. General Li Jing decided to take the fog to raid, and then the news came that our army was winning a great victory and was pursuing the remnants of the Turkic troops. So the deputy general manager of the marching gave the infantry to protect the wounded soldiers and returned to Dingxiang, and the rest of the people joined the pursuit."

"Just on the way back to Dingxiang, I was poisoned."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Poisonous hair?"

Li Mu nodded seriously and said, "There are only some vague clips that I can remember now. I lay on a ox cart, as if I was tied up, and could not move. I wanted to drink a sip of water, but I didn't even have the strength to speak. My mind became more and more drowsy, and my consciousness became more and more blurred, and I finally remembered nothing."

"My last thought is to worry about me. I am afraid that I will not be taken care of by myself once I die."

Seeing that Li Mu was moved, Li Shimin was also very moved and said, "I can see that you are a filial person."

"A magical thing happened at this time. I lost consciousness, but I was not dead. Like other wounded soldiers, I was sent to Dingxiang. Just when I was about to arrive in Dingxiang, I woke up, and my wounds healed!"

Li Shimin was shocked and said, "Aren't you poisoned?"

"This is the magical thing." Li Mu said seriously: "I don't know how I can solve the poison!"

Li Shimin was still a difficult person to fool, and he said in confusion: "Is that all?"

"Of course not!" Li Mu continued: "From that day, I occasionally have a strange dream. No, it cannot be said to be a strange dream, it should be a continuous dream."

Li Shimin asked, "What did you dream of?"

Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, my dream is too ridiculous, so let's not talk about it."

Li Shimin was already impatient: "I asked you to say it! Say it quickly!"

Li Mu sighed helplessly and said, "Then I said, I hope Your Majesty will not think that I am absurd... I dreamed that I lived in another world, where people in that world were wearing clothes that were different from our Tang Dynasty, but they spoke similarly. In that world, there is a big bird flying in the sky. People can penetrate into the belly of the big bird and wander in the nine heavens. They call this big bird 'Flying Chicken'."

"Flying Chicken?" Li Shimin didn't understand at all and said, "People are wandering in the nine heavens in the belly of the 'Flying Chicken'?"

Li Mu nodded seriously: "It's true. I also got into the belly of the 'flying chicken' in my dream. This 'flying chicken' is not a real 'flying chicken', nor a 'bird'. I touched it with my hands. It was made of iron, very hard, like a house made of birds, and there are windows. When I flew into the sky, I could see the clouds outside through the window."

"Absurd! Absurd! How can iron fly? Even if it is made into the shape of a bird, it will not be able to fly!"

Li Mu quickly stopped and said, "Your Majesty clearly understands that this is just my dream. I have already said it is very absurd. I will not say it anymore, so as not to taint Your Majesty's ears."

"No, you continue to say it. I think it's very interesting. Who made the 'flying chicken' you mentioned, and he has such great ability?"

"Um..." Li Mu had already entered the state and said seriously: "In my dream, I am also a civilian, with no status. I can't see the person who made the 'Flying Chicken', but I just heard that it seemed like I was called a 'stewardess'."

"Flight attendant?" Li Shimin murmured: "Is there anyone named Kong? But I don't know. Could it be that this 'Flying Chicken' is flying in the air, and this person is a woman, so she is respectfully called the 'Flight Attendant'?"

Li Mu immediately looked admirable and said, "Your Majesty's clarity, this should be the case."

Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and asked again: "What else is strange about the world in your dream?"

"Well... I want to talk about something strange, there is another one." Li Mu said: "In that world, everyone has a 'hand chicken'."

"Hand-hand chicken?" Li Shimin frowned and said, "What kind of chicken is this? Why are there so many chickens in that world?"

"I don't know, but they all call me that."

"What is that chicken like? What is it for?"

Li Mu gestured the outline of a mobile phone and said, "It's just a square box, what's the purpose... Let's say that, Your Majesty is in Chang'an, and I am in Luoyang. You can talk to each other and see each other with this 'hand chicken'."

"Isn't this a clan liyan or a wind ear?"

Li Mu nodded seriously and said, "It's bad, it's almost the same."

"It's indeed ridiculous enough. No wonder you refuse to say it." Li Shimin said, then suddenly looked at Li Mu deeply and said, "Are your talents learned from the world in your dreams again?
