Chapter 600 Turn Your Face
Even Li Shimin himself is swaying between marriage and disagreement. As long as Li Muyun is not stupid, he will not be the first to stand out.
As for why Li Muyun had such a judgment, this question is very simple, because if Li Er really didn't want to get married, he would not have to ask anyone's opinions at all. The emperor who could be famous for his eternal period would be threatened by his ministers below? What a joke!
The fact is just as Li Muyun thought. Li Er was really undecided at this time. Marriage has the benefits of marriage. After the turbulent period of the Tang Dynasty, the national strength began to flourish. After destroying the Turks, it made his reputation reach its peak. This was the time when foreign countries tried their best to curry favor with him. Even if the princess was married, she would probably not suffer any grievances.
This not only calms the emotions of foreign countries, but also shows that the Tang Dynasty had no intention of being enemies with them, but it was a way to kill two birds with one stone.
However, Li Shimin also felt that this would make him look embarrassed. After all, the Tang Dynasty is now a powerful country, and there is no need to act according to the expressions of the alien races. Why do they marry their daughter when they come to propose marriage? Are they really afraid that they will not be able to do it?
After the collision of the two thoughts, Li Er hesitated for a moment and decided to ask Li Muyun to see what unique insights this guy with a different brain circuit than a normal person would have.
As a result, Li Muyun did not agree to the marriage as he wanted, but this bastard didn't seem to want to tell the matter so thoroughly.
Feeling from Li Muyun's ignorance of the current affairs, the great His Majesty Li Er said in a threatening tone: "If you don't have a better way, I guess this marriage will be a foregone conclusion, and I will not be able to change anything."
Li Muyun could naturally hear what Li Er meant and said in a turbulent manner: "Brother, aren't you just driving the ducks to put them on the shelves? What do you think I am a local gangster from the countryside?"
Li Shimin smiled: "The country bumpkin? Haha, I'm afraid that no one in the Tang Dynasty would think so except you!"
"Brother, I really don't understand the twists and turns here. In my opinion, the most fundamental reason why wars occur is the uneven resource allocation. As the saying goes, the reason why those foreign races repeatedly invade the border is because their domestic resources are scarce and they cannot be initiated."
"Of course, this also does not rule out that some people want to divert domestic conflicts, so they launch foreign aggression. Think about it, in this case, not to mention marrying a princess, what's the use of marrying ten."
"Those aliens are just for living or for their own interests. With such reasons, how could they give up the invasion because of a woman?"
Li Muyun said a lot in one breath, regardless of whether Li Shimin could understand it or not. He had said all his thoughts anyway.
Unexpectedly, Li Er's eyes lit up and said, "Look, this is a good statement. Remember, if someone asks me after a while, you will just say that, do you understand?"
"No, brother, what does this matter have to do with me! Why do you always pull me to do?" Seeing that Li Er still refused to give up, Li Muyun was also a little anxious.
"So you don't want to help me?" Li Er suddenly lowered his face and said gloomyly.
No wonder people always say that being with the king is like being with the tiger. Look, this is coming! Li Muyun gave himself a mouth with a frown and said in a crying voice: "Brother, I am not unwilling to do this. I am really not good at this kind of thing! If you kill someone or set fire to me, I will be fine. I am really unwilling to be with me if I don't have the idea."
"I can't take care of that much. In short, this matter will be left to you. After the Lantern Festival, you will go to Lu Dongzan. You can take a look at what to do." Li Shimin snorted, got up and left, and at the end he reminded: "Don't forget that you made the last time the marriage was ruined. If you don't handle it well this time, be careful of your head!"
What's this? Li Muyun left the palace angrily, and was still complaining in his heart.
I originally thought that Empress Changsun was grateful for the grace of saving her life and specially invited her to dinner, but she didn't expect to thank her for her. It was true that she treated herself as a gun. People in the world said that Li Muyun would not suffer any loss. In conjunction with Li Shimin, she was the ancestor who did not suffer any loss. After eating his meal, she immediately got into trouble.
"King Xiaoyao, I wonder if you have any leisure?" Just as Li Muyun was depressed and couldn't help but step on the villain in his heart, a person suddenly appeared at the base of the imperial city.
It was dark under the inner city wall of the palace. Li Muyun could not recognize who it was except for seeing someone standing there. He stared at him for a long time and asked in wonder: "Who?!"
The black shadow slowly walked out of the darkness and told himself that he was: "I am Wei Zheng."
Wei Zheng and Li Muyun stared at the old man for a long time, and suddenly realized that the old man wasted his sneaking skills if he didn't go to be an assassin.
"Does your prince have time?" Wei Zheng asked again when he saw Li Muyun not speaking.
"Ah, oh, yes." Li Muyun then realized, nodded and asked, "Mr. Wei, are you waiting for it?"
Wei Zheng explained: "Yes, I've been waiting for a while. The wind is too strong at the gate of the city, so I went to hide for a while."
It turned out to be like this. No wonder the old man sneaked out of the city wall. The surrounding imperial guards were not curious at all. It turned out that the old man had been waiting for a long time.
But soon Li Muyun's heart, which had just relaxed, raised up again, looked at Old Wei and asked, "Mr. Wei Yinye is waiting here, but what's wrong?"
Although Li Muyun believed that he had never done anything wrong, he was still a little nervous when facing Lao Wei.
To put it bluntly, this is an occupational disease. As a killer, he is born to be incompatible with those "decent" people.
It’s like you are in a society in the future, so when you meet a hooligan, the gangster will come to you in the middle of the night and you will probably go out to drink, even if you are fighting, you can handle it calmly.
But if you come to the police, it will be broken. Even if you haven't committed any trouble during this period, or if the police are here to find you to have tea, you probably won't be able to drink this tea very peacefully.
Li Muyun is like this now. If Cheng Yaojin, even Lu Dongzan, was probably not frowning, but if Wei Zheng had to think about it, he would have to think about it carefully. After all, we are not all the people, and we came to him in the middle of the night with our toes.
Wei Zheng also knew that his behavior seemed a bit abrupt, but he had a great excuse, and reached out to support the glasses on his face and said, "I have to thank the prince for taking action when I can lose these glasses. I am just regretting that I have not seen the prince's style during the day."
While thinking about Old Wei's purpose, Li Muyun shook his head and said, "Mr. Wei is probably a misunderstanding. It is all Changle's contribution to the glasses. Mu Yun dare not take the credit."
"Hehe" Old Wei Zheng smiled and didn't say anything else, but the meaning was expressed very clearly, that is, he would never believe that Changle could have the ability to fight Lu Dongzan.
Although Wei Zheng was stubborn, he was not stupid. He knew that even if he could prove that Changle cheated and won the competition, there would be no benefit except offending others. Besides, Li Muyun and Changle were willing to fight and the other were willing to be beaten, so there was no need for him, a half-big old man.
Li Muyun didn't necessarily ask Wei Zheng to believe anything. Regardless of whether he believed it or not, he changed the subject and said: "Mr. Wei is looking for it, don't he just want to talk about glasses, right?"
"Well, that's not." Wei Zheng shook his head, raised his hand to call the carriage waiting in the distance, and invited Li Muyun: "Prince, why don't we go to the carriage to talk in detail?"
"Okay!" Li Muyun agreed with the situation.
As a big shot, obviously I don’t want what I said to be heard by irrelevant people. Besides, the gate of the imperial city is obviously not a place to speak.
After a while, Li Muyun and Wei Zheng sat opposite each other in the carriage, and the carriage left the imperial city and headed out of the city under the old servant's impellation. It seemed that Old Wei also knew that someone was leaving the city and did not want to waste too much time.
"Mr. Wei, what's the matter? Can you tell me now?" Li Muyun saw that Old Wei didn't speak for a long time and had been hesitating, so he took the initiative to ask.
Wei Zheng took the stomp and said, "The prince must know the purpose of the Tubo people, right?"
"Does Lord Wei mean marriage?" Li Muyun asked in surprise.
He just knew about this from Li Er at night, but he didn't expect that the old man Wei Zheng had already known about it.
"Yes, it's just a matter of marriage." Wei Zheng didn't hesitate and said with the flow: "If I remember correctly, the prince should be opposed to marriage, right?"
Seeing that Old Wei really mentioned marriage, Li Muyun's eyes flashed and he pushed back the question back to Wei Zheng again: "What does Lord Wei want to say? Mu Yun is dull, please let me make it clear."
"I hope the prince can support this marriage so that the Tang Dynasty can avoid the war." Old Wei's voice was low and full of compassion, but Li Muyun frowned when he heard it.
This is a typical conflict of concepts. Li Muyun could not understand Wei Zheng's support for marriage. He could not understand what judgment these people could judge that after marriage, Tubo would stop offending the border.
In history, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo did have a marriage marriage once, so Princess Wencheng married far away. People have praised this woman a lot, but what is the truth? Is Princess Wencheng who married Tubo far away really happy?
Besides, Tubo did not seem to have stopped attacking because of his marriage with the Tang Dynasty. On the contrary, they began to sweep across the world with the power of the Tang Dynasty. When the power reached a certain level, they once again showed their fangs to the Tang Dynasty.
Although Li Muyun's history is really bad, he still has basic common sense. When he was studying, he believed that with the power of the Tang Dynasty at that time, there was no need for marriage. Without this marriage, the advanced crafts and technologies of the Tang Dynasty would not have been introduced to Tubo. Without these advanced crafts and technologies, Tubo naturally would not have been able to bite the Tang Dynasty back later.
Seeing that Li Muyun was silent, Wei Zheng coughed and asked, "Prince!"
"Mr. Wei!" Li Muyun looked up and looked at Wei Zheng, and said seriously: "I'm very sorry, I can't agree with your opinion."
"Why? If the marriage is successful, it can be exchanged for at least twenty years of peace to be developed. The benefits will be in the present and the future!" Wei Zheng frowned and asked.
Li Muyun was stunned and blurted out: "So you know that marriage can only bring twenty years of peace?"
"That's right." Wei Zheng nodded heavily, thought for a while and continued: "But compared to other methods, marriage is undoubtedly the most powerful way to save national strength."
"Haha, it's ridiculous. Knowing that marriage can only bring 20 years of peace, but you have to pay a woman's lifelong happiness. Lord Wei, don't you think this is a bit shameless? Or, if you have a daughter, are you willing to let her marry Tubo far away?" Knowing that old Wei knew that marriage can only bring 20 years of peace, but he still advocated marriage, Li Muyun completely turned against him and didn't even call him.
But what he unexpectedly expected was that Lao Wei shook his head without any offense and sighed: "The prince is thinking too much. Your assumption does not exist at all, because except for the royal family, no one else can compete with it. Therefore, even if I have a daughter, it is impossible for me to agree that she will marry far away."
"You" Li Muyun was speechless by Old Wei. Somehow he had the urge to beat someone up, but at this moment, he heard Old Wei say firmly: "But I can answer clearly that if the prince's assumption is true, I agree!"
"Crazy, you are just a madman!" Li Muyun jumped at the stubbornness of Old Wei and pointed at his nose and cursed.
But Old Wei did not react in extreme extremes, just looked at him quietly, and after he calmed down, he slowly said: "There are enough wars, and the people are determined. I also know the pain of my daughter from Tang Dynasty marrying far away, but this is indeed the smallest price."
At this point, Li Muyun no longer wanted to investigate how Wei Zheng knew about marriage, and he also didn't want to say anything to the old man. He patted the carriage and signaled the old servant who drove the car to stop the car, and then turned to Old Wei and said, "Wei Zheng, when you make a decision, it's best to think about whether the peace of charity is needed by the Tang Dynasty. Remember, the saints have the news, and scholars don't eat food that comes from pity!"
After saying that, Li Muyun pushed open the carriage and jumped out of the carriage and left, never looking back.
Wei Zheng sat in the carriage and stared at Li Muyun walking away until his back disappeared into the night, and sighed dejectedly.
"Master, are you okay?" The old servant who was driving the car came forward worriedly to ask.
Wei Zheng shook his head, his eyes were a little dull, and he murmured, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was asking the old servant: "Is it really wrong?"
