Chapter 60
When it was daylight, Li Shimin, who got up at the fourth watch, had already interrogated the spies in the Tuyuhun envoys. They were not from Tuyuhun, but from Tupan.

"Your Highness, the method you sent people to arrange is quite effective. They recruited all of them in just one night. If there is no injury, you can give the envoy an explanation."

"En." Li Shimin nodded slightly: "Get ready, the king is going to enter the palace."

"Yes."

When Li Shimin went back to his room to change his clothes, the steward of Prince Qin came in and reported: "Your Highness, Mr. Mu Xiaolang left without saying goodbye. In the early morning, he claimed to be going to the West Market, and I sent someone to protect him secretly. Mr. Lang didn't go to West Market, he left Chang'an and went all the way north."

He escaped!Li Shimin smiled very happily, Liu Mu was afraid and ran away.

The steward continued to report: "Just now the female officer in the mansion told Nu that Mr. Mu Xiaolang didn't go to bed last night, and seemed to be sitting by the wall all night."

"Okay, okay." Li Shimin couldn't figure out why Liu Mu didn't go to bed, maybe he was afraid of this place, so he waited for the dawn and then ran away.Li Shimin ordered: "Go and send those two people to Jingyang Huangmei's Zhuangzi, and only say that it is a reward from this king."

"Yes, Your Highness." The steward of the palace saluted and stepped aside.

After the steward left the room, Li Shimin looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. This willow tree is too interesting, it combines boldness and cowardice, and is afraid of seeing blood and dead people.

Li Shimin stopped laughing abruptly, and said to himself: "Is this king that scary?"

Great Tang Tai Chi Palace.

There was a court meeting today, and Prince Li Jiancheng, who was in charge of internal affairs, was reporting the taxation and other information of the whole country in the sixth year of Wude, and the internal supervisor reported: "His Royal Highness King Qin has arrived."

Li Jiancheng pretended not to hear it and continued to make his report.

Li Yuan waved his hand lightly: "Da Lang, please stop."

This call to stop made Li Jiancheng stop even if he felt unhappy.

Li Shimin entered the hall, met the saint according to the etiquette of the courtiers, and then greeted the prince Li Jiancheng, and then greeted Xiao, Feng and other famous ministers.Only then did he start talking about the business: "Father, my son has something important to report."

"Da Lang stand aside, and Er Lang stepped forward." Li Yuan asked Li Jiancheng to step aside, because he knew that Li Shimin's coming at this time must have done a good job, and he did it well.Then the letter of surrender, order, map, human head, etc. should be presented and placed on the main hall to show meritorious service.

But who would have thought that Li Shimin said lightly: "Father, things are going better than expected, but there are some changes. I thought that Father, please allow me to report alone."

"Retire. Erlang will follow me."

What's the matter?

At this time, only one person among the ministers above the court knew, and that was Yu Chigong.But he, pretending not to wake up, heard the retreat: "Ah, retreat, go home for dinner."

Li Jiancheng looked at Yu Chigong with malice in his eyes.

Then he looked at Li Shimin's back with resentful eyes.

He really wanted to know what it was that made the emperor of the Tang Dynasty even stop the court meeting and stop listening to the tax report.

In the harem study room, there are only Li Yuan and Li Shimin, father and son.

"Father, the letter of surrender, the list, the map, and the head are all in the son's study. This time, Shu Bao made the first contribution. Three people made great contributions. Liu Zhengze, Shu Bao's general Lao Lang, and the knight-errant Ba Dao. Ba Dao This time it was done well, Shubao wrote a letter claiming that all the men in Gao Kaidao's mansion would rather kill the wrong men than let them go. I think this is a reward."

Li Yuan asked back, "Why didn't you speak in the hall?"

"Father, please read this book." Li Shimin gave the second and third steps of the serial plan, which were formulated by Qin Qiong, Li Ji and others.He, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui calculated in detail, and revised a little bit of the full version of the plan.

After reading it in detail, Li Yuan put it on the oil lamp and burned it.

"Erlang has thought carefully. This plan really cannot be known to the public, and it is inevitable that someone will leak it."

"Father is wise."

Li Yuan asked again: "Didn't you say that the plan was proposed by Mr. Mu Xiaolang, without his credit?"

"Yes." Li Shimin put the original willow plan on the table, and Li Yuan praised after seeing it: "Although it is young, the details are not detailed enough, but it goes straight to the core, which is amazing."

"Father, he was in Erchen's mansion last night. Erchen gave him a slight lesson, but he fled Chang'an in fright at dawn. It is estimated that he will have seen the Jing River by now, and he will be back in the afternoon. Lan Ruo's Zhuangzi."

Li Yuan heard that Li Shimin used Liu Mu's method of asking Liu Mu not to hurt others, and pointed at Li Shimin with trembling fingers: "Erlang, smart, smart. I am happy to hear that."

"He didn't deserve any credit. He hit the son on the head. As a countryman, he dared to spy on the royal princess, and as a countryman, he dared to set a trap for Yi Guogong. He made amends for these. But it was not enough. The minister let him Make up for it before the New Year, otherwise, this minister will let him know that King Qin's anger is terrible."

When it comes to being scary, Li Shimin said it with a smile.

Li Yuan couldn't close his mouth with a smile: "Good, good, very good."

Needless to say, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty knew whether Liu Mu had any merit, and it was enough for the King Qin of the Tang Dynasty to know.

"Father, my son thinks that the matter discussed in the inner hall today can be declared to the outside world as Lan Ruo's engagement. The ceremony of acceptance will be held on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the ceremony of asking names on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It's just the man's big matchmaker." I haven't decided who will do it yet, so please give me your advice." Li Shimin obviously planned to hide the matter about Youzhou from the entire Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan patted the table lightly: "Didn't Mr. Mu Xiaolang say that he was asking you to give him a chance. You just give him a chance. This man is a great matchmaker. Let him find it himself. Send someone to pass on my will, Shubao and others are not allowed to help him."

"Father is wise."

After the palace, when Li Jiancheng left the palace, news came out of the people he placed in the palace.

"Hmph!" Li Jiancheng snorted coldly.

Qi Wang Li Yuanji asked: "Brother, what did he secretly report to the emperor?" Li Yuanji used him, not Qin Wang, nor the second brother.

"That maidservant is getting engaged for the sixth time, hum." Li Jiancheng sneered.

Li Jiancheng didn't grow up in the Tang Duke's mansion. At that time, the world was already in chaos. Li Yuan sent Li Jiancheng to live in Hedong for safety, and Yuan Ji followed him.

In Li Jiancheng's eyes, Dugu Lanruo's mother is a maid, and she is a maid.

He heard that Dugu Lanruo called him big brother, not only was it not kind, but it felt like it was polluting his ears.

Li Yuanji smiled from the side: "I just don't know which family it is this time. How long will this betrothed person live?"

"Don't say such things, father and aunt will teach you how to look good." Li Jiancheng looked down on Dugu Lanruo, but he would not let people speak ill of Dugu Lanruo.To outsiders, this is his royal face. To his family, he is worried that Li Yuanji will be severely taught by the current emperor and Princess Tong'an.
