Chapter 90: Eloquence is better than facts


Li Shimin looked at Li Mu who knelt down in front of him, his anger was blazing, he raised a foot and kicked Li Mu into a rolling gourd, and scolded in his mouth: "Even if you understand it wrongly, but you blow up the gate of the palace and beat King Yue, how should you be guilty?"

Li Mu hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "The emperor is groomed, Erchen said before, it was the soldiers of the palace who prevented Erchen from handling the case, and he repeatedly refused to listen, and Erchen also gave them a pillar of incense time, and forced Erchen to order the destruction of the door, if the emperor didn't believe it, so many people were present that day, and he would definitely be able to find witnesses." \ Li Shimin was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas were born in Nirvana, and he raised his leg and kicked it. came to this sneak attack again, Li Mu shrank back, and he was able to kick it, but he screamed in pain.

Li Shimin asked angrily: "How can you quibble about beating King Yue?"

"Erchen didn't beat King Yue."

"You dare to bully the king" Li Shimin pointed at Li Mu and began to buckle his big hat, "This is what I saw with my own eyes." ” Li Mu replied calmly: "On that day, Erchen slapped King Yue twice, but this is not that Erchen is beating King Yue, but disciplining King Yue for the emperor." ” Li Shimin laughed angrily: "You discipline jokes for me, how do you represent me, what qualifications do you have to represent me?"

But when Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji on the side heard this, their faces showed a hint of understanding.

Sure enough, Li Mu unhurriedly took out the imperial gold medal from his arms and said: "Erchen has this gold medal given by His Majesty, I think I can discipline King Yue on behalf of the emperor."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, not only was he stunned, but everyone was stunned.

Li Mu was right, with this imperial gold medal in hand, then Li Mu had a perfect explanation for everything that day.

Since Li Mu showed the royal gold medal in advance, it represents not a personal identity, but the Son of Heaven. showed the gold medal and gave a pillar of incense time to consider, Li Tai not only did not go out of the palace to plead, or entered the palace to face the saint, but organized the government guards to resist, which became a disobedience to the decree and a great rebellion.

In this case, Li Mu is the son of the Heavenly Sect, so what's the matter with beating and scolding, even if he really kills Li Tai, legally speaking, Li Mu is not wrong.

Although the truth is so, everyone knows that the world is not reasonable.

If you really follow the law like this, then there will be no war in the world, right?

A heinous case of retribution that deserved to be punished was interpreted as a misunderstanding by Li Mu in a few sentences, and Li Shimin, who locked Li Mu in prison, seemed to be wrong.

At this time, under normal circumstances, it is time for the emperor to seek foreign aid.

Li Shimin couldn't think of words to refute Li Mu for a while, he raised his eyes and looked around at the ministers, hoping that someone would stand up to refute Li Mu, but he found that everyone lowered their heads with strange faces.

What's going on Li Shimin suddenly understood that he was not arguing with his ministers over this matter Let them now stand on their side for this matter, undoubtedly asking for fish.

Li Shimin snorted angrily, didn't say hello, patted his ass and left.

How dare Gonggong Yuan stay and shout "The emperor is driving", and chased after him in a hurry.

Li Jing glanced at Li Mu with a slight bow, then at Yu Chigong, and left.

Wei Chigong coughed dryly and glared at Li Mu, "Boy, don't forget to invite someone to drink after you come out." ” After saying that, he also left.

Fang Xuanling sighed lightly: "Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind.

Li Mu, do it yourself. ” After saying that, he also left. left the eldest grandson Wuji alone to face Li Mu's eyes.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "This is what you want" Li Mu replied, "Isn't this what you want?"

The two of them smiled knowingly.

In fact, Li Mu and the eldest grandson Wuji want to be different, Li Mu wants fairness, while the eldest grandson Wuji wants the relative power to limit the monarch's power.

Although the essence is different, it does not prevent us from working together in the process now.

Li Mu used Li Tai to drag Li Shimin, while the eldest grandson Wuji and others withstood Li Shimin's favoritism in the court.

The two foxes, one big and one small, laughed sympathetically.

"Outside the Hanguang Gate, you deliberately leaked to attack the Yue Palace" "Yes."

"The time to wait for a pillar of incense in front of the Yue Wangfu is to let the emperor come" "Yes."

"But the old man can't figure out why you don't just break the door instead of using the thunder."

Li Mu smiled, and he said: "If you don't need heavenly thunder, how can you attract Sikong and the ministers?"

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly said, "Then what you said to King Yue in the front yard of the palace was also deliberately said that you already knew that the emperor was outside."

Li Mu didn't answer this, he shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Guess." ” The eldest grandson Wuji sighed slightly: "The old man is fortunate that he has never been an enemy of you. ” "Commonplace."

"Li Mu, seeing that the New Year is coming, it's time to settle the account, how about a small gathering in the cold house after going out?"

"Sikong has a heart, and Mu Ding will go with a heavy gift at that time."

The eldest grandson Wuji jumped with thick eyebrows, and responded: "Then the old man is waiting to appreciate your heavy gift." ” "I won't disappoint."

"Hey, I should call him uncle."

"Hey, uncle."

"Hmm."

The eldest grandson Wuji left satisfied. 。

Li Shimin, who came in a hurry and returned in defeat, left in a bad mood.

When he returned to the palace, he was not angry that Li Mu openly contradicted him, nor was he angry that Li Mu used clever words to exonerate himself.

These are all expected by Li Shimin, and they are not unexpected.

He was angry that Fang Xuanling, Eldest Sun Wuji and others were not on his side, you must know that they were his henchmen.

The eldest grandson Wuji is his brother-in-law, and he also relied on his own strength to promote, so that he has the glory of being a very popular minister and a fiery hand today, even he has to stand on the opposite side of himself Thinking of this time, Li Shimin felt a little sad in his heart, they all have no family affection in heaven, it seems that I can really only be a lonely person Li Shimin's eyes inadvertently swept over Yuan Renguo, who was standing with his hands down, trembling, and didn't dare to take a breath.

"That's what you call a loyal servant" Such a cold sentence made Yuan Renguo's cold sweat quickly soak his back.

"Plop" knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again: "The slave should die" "Damn," Li Shimin asked angrily, "There are more damn people, and you are just one of them." ” When Yuan Renguo heard this, his heart was cold, and he became bold for a while.

"The emperor is gracious, the slave and maid have something to say."

"Speak."

"Although Li Mu is rude, this shows that he is loyal to the emperor, but those who have complaints hidden in their hearts and are obedient to the emperor on the surface are traitors, please let the emperor know."

Li Shimin was a little surprised by Yuan Renguo's sudden boldness, but he also felt the same way after hearing this.

Isn't it true that these ministers, who usually make promises and dare to gasp when they see their own atmosphere, are not now colluding with me to become an enemy?

I just want to protect my green sparrows, is this wrong?

As the Son of Heaven, can't I forgive my own children who have committed mistakes?

Li Shimin was very aggrieved in his heart, he always felt that he had the right to defend Li Tai without anyone's consent.

"You have also seen today's situation, the ministers are all on Li Mu's side, isn't this evidence of Li Mu's collusion with the ministers" Li Shimin asked coldly.

Once Yuan Renguo opened his mouth, he had no scruples, and his words became clear: "It has been three months since Li Mu was imprisoned, and the emperor has just ordered someone to visit, how can he collude with the ministers?"

"How do you explain today's situation?"

"This slave doesn't dare to speak."

"I forgive you for your innocence, and say so."

"The slave obeys.

According to the slave maid, this just means that it is not Li Mu who colludes with the ministers, but the ministers who are wooing Li Mu. ” "Oh, Li Mu, what is there to win over?"

"Your Majesty, there are many places where Li Mu is worth wooing, not to mention the rest, just because he is deeply favored by the emperor is the biggest reason."

Li Shimin instantly understood that he did have too much favor for Li Mu, starting from giving him the imperial village, to being enthroned, and then serving as the transportation supervisor, until now, even if he entered the prison, he did not recover the imperial gold medal.

Based on this alone, all the ministers can guess that Li Mujian is in the emperor's heart, and it is naturally common sense to win over.

But Li Shimin still couldn't figure it out.

"If the civil officials are trying to win over Li Mu, I believe that they can be generals like Li Jing and Wei Chigong, why don't they help me, but they also want to show favor to Li Mu, and in their capacity, do they still need to show favor to Li Mu" Li Shimin finally spit out the doubts in his heart to Yuan Renguo.

Yuan Renguo replied: "But if you are courteous to others, you must ask for something, and the emperor may wish to think about what Li Mu has on him that they need and fancy." ” Li Shimin closed his eyes and thought deeply, what senior generals like Li Jing and Wei Chigong want is nothing more than military exploits and fame, but Li Mu can't give them, and Li Mu can't give them military merits, and he can't help them win the battle.

Li Shimin quickly understood that Wei Chigong's shouting for wine was actually just an excuse, his eyes must have been fixed on the heavenly thunder of Lijiazhuang, because I had issued a strict decree that no one was allowed to spy on Lijiazhuang, and he had no choice but to move his brain to Li Mu.

The mystery was solved instantly, Li Shimin exhaled as if relieved, and his face was better.

"Stop kneeling, get up."

"Slave and maid thank the emperor for his grace of not sinning."

"Tell me, what should I do with Li Mu?"

"Slaves and maids dare not speak freely."

"I forgive you for your trespassing."

"The slave obeys.

According to the slave maid, if you want to win over people, who else in the world is more blessed than the emperor" Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately understood the meaning of Yuan Renguo's words.

But Li Shimin is a person after all, and he also needs face, he urgently needs a step, and the people who can build a ladder for him stand on the opposite side, which makes Li Shimin very difficult.

Seeing that Li Shimin fell into contemplation again, Yuan Renguo obediently closed his mouth and retracted into the darkness of the corner. 。
