Chapter 89 Unexpected meritorious service

Eastern Palace.

Li Shimin was worried that Li Jing's army sent a reply letter. In another seven days, at most ten days, the army was about to return to the court. In other words, Jie Li was about to be escorted to Chang'an. Since the Han Dynasty, the Turks have always been a major concern for the Central Plains dynasty, and the monarchs of several dynasties were unable to truly destroy the country. And Jie Li Khan was one of the mortal enemies of the monarchs of the Tang Dynasty. This time, the destruction of the Turks and the capture of Jie Li was a great achievement, and according to the etiquette system, they would be sacrificed to the Taimiao for the capture.

The matter is here. Although Li Shimin has ascended the throne and is the emperor, he has the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan. The Taimiao Festival tells his ancestors that Li Yuan must participate. But Li Shimin dared not mention this matter to Li Yuan. First of all, the credit was obtained when he was in power, and Jie Li was his enemy of his and his father. If Li Yuan wants Li Yuan to participate, wouldn’t he tell the world that his son did what he had not done, and his son was better than me. What did I think in my heart? Besides, the day must have been unprecedented, and the people gathered in the mountains and shouted long live, but the people called Li Shimin, and the one who called Li Shimin was also Li Shimin. Li Yuan was right next to him, so what should I think?

Li Shimin was afraid that he would mention a word and reminisce about the past. At that time, let alone the matter cannot be done, he would have to be scolded. His nose is not a nose, his face is not a face. After all, he is the current monarch of the Tang Dynasty and he is a little embarrassed.

But the matter still needs to be done. In desperation, he had to beg Empress Changsun to go for him. Over the years, although the father-son relationship has been very stale, Empress Changsun is still somewhat humble in Li Yuan. Because Empress Changsun is really unfair to behave in her life. Even though Li Yuan is full of evil spirits, he cannot tell Empress Changsun. However, this time, although Li Yuan did not get angry, Empress Changsun had been paying his respects for two days sooner or later. When she met, she still had a cold face. Li Shimin was not a fool, so he naturally knew his father's attitude. He was depressed and was too lazy to read the memorials and sighed.

"Your Majesty, my adopted son is here." Eunuch Gao suddenly came over and said in a low voice. Li Shimin glanced at him, rubbed his swollen eyebrows, and said, "Let him come in!"

Eunuch Gao turned around and came out soon after, with a little eunuch in. If Li Mu were here, he would have recognized that the little eunuch was the one who brought him into the palace. The little eunuch came over and bowed, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "What's wrong again?"

"Report to Your Majesty, just after the Empress greeted her, the Supreme Emperor met Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhulu. Li Mu gave me a ingot of silver, which was enough for five taels." As he said that, the eunuch took out the piece of silver given by Li Mu. Li Shimin glanced at it and said, "Since I gave it to you, you can take it. I will pick up the important ones and say that I am not in the mood to listen to nonsense today."

"No." Seeing that Li Shimin's face was not good, the little eunuch quickly took the silver back to his sleeve, started Li Mu's door and repeated the conversation with Li Yuan. If Li Mu was here, he would be even more surprised. The little eunuch's memory was amazing and he could imitate human voices. Not only did he repeat the conversation between the two, but his voice, tone, and even expressions and attitudes were imitated vividly. In contrast, the part he imitated Cheng Yaojin was simply not up to the table.

Li Shimin frowned at first, but later when he heard Li Mu's opinion on the Xuanwu Gate, his expression became a little relieved. He heard the method Li Mu gave Li Yuan later, and he was a little amused. Eunuch Gao observed his expression and said, "Your Majesty, this Marquis Zhulu is still young after all, he is a humble background and has no knowledge. Your Majesty should not take it to your heart..."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I don't have to say good things to him, I'm not angry. Instead, I think he said it well. Isn't that the things that happened back then... Brothers are in a state of disagreement, and there will always be a break. If I don't do it, they will do it. My father loves me no less than them. Today, my father will definitely drink to drown my sorrows..."

Li Shimin said with tears in his eyes, "The relationship between father and son of the Tian family is here. But I don't regret it. I believe that it is better for me to be the emperor than them!" After pausing, Li Shimin asked, "Did Li Ji come to see him yesterday? Did he mention that he would send Li Mu a mansion and move there in a few days?"

Eunuch Gao responded: "Report to Your Majesty, this is indeed true."

"This is a happy event. Since I know, I will give him a plaque and bring him a pen and ink."

Eunuch Gao and the eunuch quickly served the pen and ink. Li Shimin picked up the wolf pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote four flying white characters "Zhulu Marquis Mansion" on the paper. After writing, he looked at it and picked up the casual seal. Just as he was about to stamp it, he suddenly put it aside and said, "Come and take the jade seal of the kingdom. Since Li Mu used this to be a marquis, I will stamp it on him."

Eunuch Gao quickly took it over and handed it to Li Shimin, saying, "This is a great honor for Zhuluhou, and it can be passed down to the world. If it is passed down to the people, it would be a good story."

Li Shimin smiled and stamped the jade seal on the paper. He sucked Yu Mo with paper and rolled it up and handed it to Eunuch Gao, saying, "I took the master craftsman in the palace to make a plaque overnight, and sent it with this pair of characters together with them tomorrow."

Eunuch Gao took Li Shimin's book and said "No". Just as he was about to turn around and go out, another eunuch came in at the door.

"Report to Your Majesty, I will give you a note to Your Majesty for the Supreme Emperor."

"Bring it!"

Li Shimin opened the note and his expression suddenly became very exciting. Eunuch Gao and the two little eunuchs could not see the content and dared not ask. They were all guessing in their hearts. After a while, Li Shimin put the note away and said, "Go back to the Supreme Emperor, let me think about this matter. I will go to pay my respects during dinner and I will give the Supreme Emperor a reply."

"promise."

The little eunuch responded, and Li Shimin told the young eunuch who came to report the message: "Go and get Zhulu Marquis back to me, I want to settle the score with him!"

When Eunuch Gao heard this, he quickly asked, "Your Majesty, then is this plaque still made?"

"Doing, doing, talking, and it has nothing to do."

"No." Eunuch Gao responded and went out with the little eunuch, but he was full of suspicion. This Marquis Zhulu can really cause trouble. Just now, he made His Majesty happy because of something, and immediately took on something that made His Majesty unhappy. But His Majesty was unhappy. Why didn't the reward cancel yet? Eunuch Gao was a little confused. Does Your Majesty like this little marquis?
