Huh, Gonggong Yuan's heart was half relieved, and he replied cautiously: "According to the old slave, he is young, but the emperor has repeatedly favored him, even if Li Mu is a stone, he is also warm, so the old slave thinks that Li Mu is loyal to His Majesty."
This is too level, Fang Xuanling admired in his heart, this sentence Yuan Gonggong seems to endorse Li Mu, but in fact, the key to this sentence is that "the emperor has repeatedly graced him with high-ranking officials", these fifteen words also need to be circled, and they will be tested in the future, and the implication is that your emperor is very kind to him, and we eunuchs can only follow your meaning.
"Is there anything else Xuan Ling is talking about?"
Fang Xuanling said: "The thunder, rain and dew are all from above, and the minister thinks that what the prince said is reasonable, if Li Mu is loyal, naturally there is no need to remove the guard camp." ” "That's it, I'm just saying that I'm afraid that Li Mu, this kid, is young and will make something happen to the guard camp, so I think about how to prevent it from happening.
Since the prince's advice is reasonable, then the matter will not be mentioned. ” This is really high-sounding.
Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said something for Li Mu today, in fact, he had two intentions.
One is that his crown prince is threatened by Li Tai, and it has reached the point where he needs foreign aid, Li Mu is fast, and he has won the favor of his father, and more importantly, he and Li Tai are known to the Manchu Dynasty, such a natural and powerful foreign aid, if you don't accept it, it will be against the will of heaven.
Besides, if he sells him a favor today, someone must always pass the news to him, of course, if no one passes it on to him, he will also find a way to let people pass it on to him, and Li Mu can't return this favor if he wants to.
But no one expected that after they left, Li Shimin's eyes became gloomy. 。
In Sikong Mansion, the eldest grandson Wuji is teaching the eldest grandson Chong face-to-face.
"I heard that Li Mu's mother came to Chang'an, you go to visit tomorrow, send some gold, silver and melons and fruits in time, and then select a few clever maidservants, and say that they are serving the old lady."
Eldest Sun Wuji's tone was a little frustrated.
In Chang'an City, he has the most friendship with Li Mu, but he has never really established a solid relationship with Li Mu.
Even if Li Mu used the sale of ironware to tie the two sides together, the eldest grandson Wuji did not really attach importance to the relationship with Li Mu.
It's not that the eldest grandson Wuji is not optimistic about Li Mu, but because Li Mu is young, the eldest grandson Wuji is ready to leave Li Mu to the eldest grandson Chong, hoping that when he gets old, Li Mu can assist the eldest grandson Chong, consolidate the foundation of the eldest grandson clan, and ensure the foundation of the eldest grandson family.
But the appearance of the guard battalion today caught the eldest grandson Wuji off guard, and he knew that Li Mu's rise was unstoppable.
Not to mention anything else, just by virtue of this tiger army, in order to make Li Mu the focus of competition for various forces.
No one is a fool, before the appearance of the guard battalion, even if Li Mu's performance was amazing, all forces were only concerned, after all, Li Mu's foundation was still shallow, there was no one in the court, and no one from the big guys lowered himself to win over Li Mu.
Now it's different, the powerful aura of the guard battalion has entered everyone's eyes, and it's only a matter of time before they scramble.
The combat power of the escort battalion is one thing, the key lies in its legitimacy.
This is a quasi-army that Li Shimin nodded over, and it is a legitimate armoured army.
If it is five hundred ordinary guards, I am afraid that no one cares about it, but the strength of this army is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the legendary secret thunder.
If any force can grasp this army in its hands, anything in Chang'an City will not be decided in a word Hearing his father's instructions, Changsun Chong was a little incomprehensible.
In his opinion, his father attaches too much importance to Li Mu, and as the eldest son of the eldest grandson's family, the queen's nephew, the concubine of the dynasty, and Zongzheng Shaoqing, it is just enough to visit Li Mu, at least Li Mu is the emperor's righteous son, but he can visit a cloth-clothed village woman, which makes the eldest grandson Chong a little embarrassed.
"Why did my father degrade himself so much to please a village woman" Eldest Sun Wuji looked at the unwilling Changsun Chong, and really wanted to slap him, but after all, he took into account the face of the eldest grandson Chong, and sighed: "Have you ever seen Li Mu's guard camp today?"
"The child saw it, and it was indeed majestic."
"Then you don't understand the value of these five hundred guards" The eldest grandson thought for a moment and said, "The child understands. ” "Now that you understand, you should know how many people will win him over when Li Mu returns to Beijing."
"The child knows.
It's just that no matter how powerful this guard battalion is, what is the use in the capital In the eyes of the child, it is not only useless, but will arouse the emperor's suspicion, so the child thinks that his father should not win over Li Mu, but should stay away. ” The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said, "Chong'er can think of this, and I am very relieved for my father."
But you only know one, you don't know the second, Li Mu has no foundation in the capital, everything he has comes from the emperor's reward, the emperor doesn't believe him, who else does he believe besides, who can give Li Mu more in the Tang Dynasty than the emperor So, the emperor may be suspicious, but it is only suspicion, in the eyes of the father, the emperor will still be gentle with Li Mu in the end, not get rid of it. ” After the eldest grandson Wuji's explanation, Changsun Chong immediately understood that there were many forces in the court, including the first line of the old Xun, the first line of the Tiance Mansion, the first line of the wealthy family, the first line of the military generals, etc., and the first line of the old Xun was divided into the first line of the emperor and the first line of the late Li Jiancheng's former ministers; The first line of Tiance Mansion is divided into a line headed by the eldest grandson and a series of military generals; The Hao clan is divided into various factions led by five surnames and seven wangs.
It's really complicated, you have me or not, I have you.
But Li Mu is a single person, without any faction, as an emperor, I don't believe who else he believes Thinking of this, the eldest grandson said: "The child understands, but he can't figure it out a little, is the emperor really going to do something to the Hao family?"
The eldest grandson Wuji sighed slightly: "The emperor started with the Guanlong Hao family, and the emperor won the world with the Shandong Hao family, and now the Hao family encloses the land, hides the people as domestic slaves, and treats the people too much, and the people of the Tang Dynasty only have three million households in the Yellow Book of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which makes the imperial treasury empty and unable to make ends meet.
The emperor has the intention to rectify it, and it has been mentioned several times in the court discussion, but it is difficult to start because of the deep roots of the wealthy family, and it is always necessary to take care of some face, so he has not done it for a long time.
But now that His Majesty has been on the throne for a long time, I am afraid that it will always come. ” Speaking of which, both father and son were silent, it was a matter of family interests, and sometimes family affection had to give way, not to mention the monarch and minister.
After a long time, the eldest grandson Chong broke the silence and said, "Will the emperor support Li Mu to become a new force?"
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said: "I can't guess for my father, but at least not at present, Li Mu is young after all, and many things cannot be solved by force alone, but more by popularity and means, which Li Mu does not have." ” "However, thinking of his father's observation, Li Mu has extraordinary means at a young age, and the scene of humiliating Han Xiang in the court that day is vivid, which can be described as quite scheming."
"Oh" Eldest Sun Wuji explained the situation at the time and Li Mu to himself afterwards and told Eldest Sun Chong, and Eldest Sun Chong was shocked when he heard it, is this a plan that a ten-year-old child can come up with "Chong'er, don't underestimate this ten-year-old baby."
"The child remembers."
"When my father asked you to be close to him, I wanted to keep him for backup and assist you in the future, but people are not as good as heaven, and I was caught off guard by the matter of the guard camp."
The eldest grandson said: "Father's intentions, the child understands, and the child will prepare a heavy gift tomorrow and go to visit the Li family." ” Eldest Sun Wuji nodded and asked casually, "What is Mingyue doing today?"
Eldest Sun Chong hesitated for a moment and replied, "My sister also went to Jinguang Gate today. ” The eldest grandson Wuji frowned and said, "It's not good to stay at home, what are you going to do when you go out and show your face?"
"My sister is also depressed at home, so it's okay to let her go out for a walk, and besides, my sister just stayed in the carriage and didn't get out of the car to show up, and I asked my father not to blame."
The eldest grandson Wuji was very relieved to see the eldest grandson Chong defending his sister, and said: "Mingyue is thirteen this year, and it should be fourteen after the New Year, and it should be time to get engaged." ” The eldest grandson Chong's heart moved, and he asked, "Father doesn't want to marry Li Mu, right?"
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head slightly and said: "Li Mu is still young, maybe there will be variables in the future, so there is no hurry." ” After a pause, the eldest grandson Wuji solemnly admonished: "You must not show the slightest tone to others. ” "Remember, child."

After the eldest grandson Chong finished speaking, he retired, walked to the door and suddenly remembered something, turned back to the eldest grandson Wuji and said, "Father knows about Li Mu's brewing of spirits."
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said, "You are talking about the spirits sold by a liquor store in Pingkangfang."
"Exactly."
"I've heard of it."
The eldest grandson Chong said a little embarrassedly: "The child heard that this wine is strong, and it is called the first strong liquor in the Tang Dynasty, and the child wants to taste it and goes to Pingkangfang, and after drinking it, he knows that it is better than the rumors." ” "What, what's wrong" "Father knows how much this wine sells for" The eldest grandson Wuji smiled, the eldest grandson Chong is already an adult, and there is nothing wrong with going to Pingkangfang occasionally, he is embarrassed to see him, and the eldest grandson Wuji has no intention of reproaching, just asking: "How much" "The score in the wine shop is third-class, and one pound of steamed wine is five hundred wen."
"Hmm."
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't feel anything wrong, this kind of small money was not worth mentioning to the eldest grandson Wuji.
"Three steamed wines, one pound and two runs."
"Hmm" The eldest grandson Wuji was a little moved, two runs and one catty, is this a lot of silver "Seven steamed wine is one pound and twenty pounds, and it is still priceless."
"Ah" The eldest grandson Wuji stammered when he heard this, this is no longer silver, but gold, according to the price of this period, ten yuan may allow an ordinary family to live for a year, and can only buy half a catty of wine "The child also heard that Li Mu partnered with Wei Chigong, Cheng Yanjin, Niu Jinda and others to open a liquor shop in Xishi, specializing in selling a large amount of steamed wine to the Hu people in the northwest, and also sold a large amount of wine directly to the Hu people at a high price through the border army."
The eldest grandson Wuji's face changed greatly, in his heart, he was just guarding against the courtiers in the court to win over Li Mu, Li Mu and Wei Chigong and other generals were colluded, which he had not considered, and the matter seemed to have been out of his control.
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly became very depressed, and waved his hand casually and said, "You go first." ” Sent away Changsun Chong, Changsun Wuji frowned, and his face became gloomy. 。
