Chapter 671 Li Mu's quest

"You" Li Ji was so angry that he sighed helplessly. Hou Junji did not make a sound for a while. After a while, he said, "As the Minister of War, I have had such a big deal, and I have to write a memorial to Your Majesty to report this matter."

"It's true, the general asks for advice."

Hou Junji turned around and left, Li Ji grabbed Li Mu's hand and said, "Li Mu, I think you are a smart person, why are you so confused? This is the way to die. What kind of person Your Majesty is? Do you still know? What he wants to establish is a great cause for a thousand years, and he will not indulge you indefinitely!"

"Entertainment Father, I'll tell you the truth." Li Mu sighed and said nothing for a while. After a while, he came to Li Ji's ear and muttered.

Li Ji's eyes almost popped out: "What did you say? Your Majesty knows you and the King... Oh! Why are you so bold!"

"I asked Eunuch Gao to leak it out."

"You?!" Li Ji looked at Li Mu in disbelief. If Li Mu hadn't spoken indifferently, he would have thought Li Mu was already crazy.

"It's better to let Your Majesty know earlier than later. I just hope that Your Majesty can spare my life and one of my family if you think of some of the contributions I have made."

Li Mu sighed, "Encyclopedia, since I arrived in Chang'an, I have been dealing with Your Majesty. How could I not know what kind of person he is? Your Majesty is very considerate but also loyal. He may kill me for women, but he will not kill meritorious officials. I helped Your Majesty formulate a salt mine plan and reform the land tax policy. This time, he helped the Tang Dynasty destroy Gaochang, and he was ruthless, so that Gaochang would no longer have the possibility of restoring the country. Your Majesty may blame me for the wrong way of doing things, but he will know that I took all the stigma on myself, but opened the door for the Tang Dynasty to control the Western Regions, reducing countless future troubles. Your Majesty has a clear idea of ​​the merit and the mistakes."

"In addition, I have arranged regulations for the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Although it may not be possible without me in a short period of time, in the future, after Changsun Chong and others grow up, they can stand alone, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs can be lost without me. I deliberately muddled the waters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and let all forces participate in it, so that the Ministry of Internal Affairs and only belongs to Your Majesty and to the imperial power. If Your Majesty can use it properly in the future, the court will have two teams. In normal times, the Ministry of Internal Affairs can also replace the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and let Your Majesty use his fingers without restraint."

Li Mu sighed and said, "Although I have never explained these arrangements to Your Majesty, there is a tacit understanding between you and Your Majesty, otherwise Your Majesty would not be so indulged in me. I have done so many things for Your Majesty, and I believe Your Majesty will not disappoint me. I will spare me and spare my whole family's life."

Li Ji felt uncomfortable when he heard this, and couldn't help saying, "Li Mu, you are not criticizing you for your father. You are so confused. For a woman, you have a great future. Do you know that if you don't provoke her, in another ten or twenty years, no one in the court will be able to restrain you. Your Majesty trusts you, the old minister is afraid of you, the new emperor is your disciple, and the only one in the world is yours, your status will be greater than that of Changsun Wuji, and you should be more than ten thousand people."

"Entertainment Father!" Li Mu interrupted Li Ji and said seriously: "Do you don't understand it or I don't understand? On the day you said, do you think I will still have life?"

"This..." Li Ji was stunned, suddenly woke up and understood. Yes, how could he allow others to snore on the side of the bed? Li Mu's ability is too outstanding. His current sons, including Li Tai, who is famous, are dim under his light. If that day really comes, Li Shimin will not be worried. If he returns to heaven, can the world be passed on to his son.

Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Entertainment Father, I am a person without ambition. If I could choose, I would rather retreat early and be a rich man in the land where birds and flowers sing and flowers in the south of the Yangtze River. But if I don't retreat, I'm afraid that one day I will not be able to retreat. I think my adoptive father will understand the concerns in my heart."

Li Ji focused on the head and said, "I understand what you mean. You did it right, you did it right."

Li Mu took a deep breath and said, "So I want to ask my adoptive father to help me. Please believe that I have thought about anything carefully and will not do it at will. After this and returning to Chang'an, it is time for me to 'resign to fate'. As long as Your Majesty is willing to let me go, I will be free and I will ask my adoptive father to fulfill his wish."

"Child, you, my father and son will be together, and you will be dismissed. Whatever you want to do, your adoptive father will help you, just hope you can kill less, and less."

"I see."

Li Ji left with a sigh. Li Mu sighed long, looking at the Gaochang Palace that was trapped in the fire, his heart was also complicated. He didn't know what his fate would be. Maybe he would be like the palace in front of him, no matter how magnificent it was before, it would eventually turn into a dusty place.

...

The fire in the palace was reduced to three days before it was destroyed. During these three days, all the people in Gaochang had already received the Angryun expenses issued by the Tang Dynasty. At first, there were still people who were half-believing, but as more and more people successfully received the Angryun expenses, the people became more courageous. Moreover, it was too easy to receive the Angryun expenses. Just report the name and age, master the skills, and simply verify them, and you can receive an Agryun expenses of varying numbers.

Yes, the Anchorage fee is divided into ranks. The stronger the body and the more skilled you are, the more you receive. But it is not that you don’t have the craftsmanship, there are not, at least less, and even some people who are unwilling to join the Tang Dynasty can receive a few severance payments. After receiving this money, you can leave Gaochang and no one cares wherever you go, but you are not allowed to come back.

Although this is also very domineering, don't forget that the current situation is that the Gaochang Kingdom has been destroyed. According to the rules of this era, even if all Gaochang is subdued to slaves, it is a matter of course. If the Turks occupied Gaochang, they would really do this. The Tang Dynasty did the opposite, and this alone gained a reputation for benevolence and righteousness.
