After the Gaochang delegation left, the New Year was approaching, and there was nothing major in the court. Because the budget matter came out, the court discussion turned into a vegetable market. As long as we saw the shadow of Li Shimin, someone would definitely stand up and shout sadly, "Please make the decision!", and then began to talk about how unfair treatment the yamen he was in. People from the Civil Affairs Department did not regard them as human beings... They muttered a lot, and finally came down to the word "money": Your Majesty, you see that we are so miserable, can you give us more budgets?

Li Shimin was really tired of dealing with it. He has been taking "sick leave" for the first time and claimed that he was ill. He ordered the three provinces and six ministries to discuss the budget and then resumed the court discussion. Therefore, these days are rare leisure.

When he heard from Eunuch Gao that Li Mu was inviting merchants in heaven and earth today, Li Shimin also came in disguise. He deliberately was late, so Li Mu did not see him. Li Shimin did not hear what Li Mu said to the merchants. But this is not a big deal. Eunuch Gao put a lot of eyeliners in heaven and earth, and just ask casually to know the whole story.

After hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but smile bitterly and said to Eunuch Gao next to him: "Li Mu is really becoming more and more arrogant, and he actually started selling official positions and titles! Senior official, do you think I'm spoiling him?"

When Eunuch Gao saw Li Shimin's appearance, he knew that he was not really angry. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty is accustomed to Zhulu Marquis. Isn't it because Zhulu Marquis has never disappointed Your Majesty? Your Majesty often says that you don't need to doubt people, and you don't doubt people. Zhulu Marquis can win a wise ruler like Your Majesty."

"You can talk." Li Shimin smiled and took Eunuch Gao and went up the fifth floor from the elevator. Li Yuan was playing military chess with Li Yourong. When he saw Li Shimin and Eunuch Gao coming, he asked them to make a corner and not play military chess, but instead play mahjong. After the freshness of military chess, he found that mahjong was still interesting.

As soon as the sound of the card swiping sounded, a smile appeared on Li Yuan's face. Li Shimin was happy when he saw his father happy. Now the father and son have their own personalities and their own personalities. After losing their scheming, they seem to return to nature and their indifferent relationship gradually warms up.

"Shimin,"

"Father."

Li Yuan played a card, looked at Li Shimin, and said, "To be honest, I didn't expect you to let your sister-in-law come out. Very good. Those who are the king need to have a big mind. You are much better than me."

"Father..." Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "The child dared not take credit. Thanks to Li Mu, this matter made the child determined!"

"I know." Li Yuan grabbed the card, but did not look at it. He just touched it, then put it aside, played one, and said, "Li Mu is really a blessing general given to the Tang Dynasty by God. He not only benefits from his affairs, but also rarely has this intention. My vision will not be wrong, and his achievements in the future are limitless. Changsun Wuji and others are only worthy of him to carry boots."

Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled bitterly. He knew that because of the incident back then, Li Yuan had always hated Changsun Wuji. But it was too much to say that he was worthy of Li Mu to carry his boots. Although Changsun Wuji was a little unceasing and had become more selfish recently, overall, he was worthy of the title of "the talent of the prime minister". Who can have no shortcomings? In Li Shimin's opinion, this is not a big problem.

Li Shimin did not respond, and Li Yuan did not delve into it. He changed the topic casually and said, "Shimin, I remember you mentioned a few days ago that your mercy uncle is coming to Chang'an to thank you. It's time to calculate the day, so why hasn't there been any news? This child is thinking about it and dare not ask, so I will ask for her."

Li Shimin looked at Li Yourong and smiled and said, "It should be fast, it's only one or two days. I also received his memorial the day before yesterday, saying that it was because three thousand sheep came over and the sheep walked slowly, which delayed the time. Yourong, your uncle is willing. Don't worry, I won't let him lose money. I have asked Li Mu to raise several ships of food. After he thanked him, he will bring him to his tribe members. It will be fine if he survives these few months. I gave him the pasture near Hetao. In a few years, his tribe will grow stronger."

Li Yourong hurriedly said, "Thank you for your grace, Yourong thanks Your Majesty for your uncle."

She looked grateful on her face, but she was worried. In a few days, Tuli Khan was about to come to Chang'an. Her family knew that her business was fake. The day she met Tuli was the time to reveal her feelings. What was wrong with the leader? Could it be that she really wanted to run away?

At this time, Li Yuan played a west wind. Li Shimin looked at the cards in his hand, and he dangled the west wind alone... Is this card a no-no or not? At the moment he was hesitating, Eunuch Chen hurried over with a man. When Eunuch Gao saw him being rash, he said unhappy: "What's wrong with you? Not long after you left the palace, you're so unruly? Who is this person? What should you blame for colliding with Your Majesty and the Supreme Emperor?"

"Oh! Something big happened!" Eunuch Chen didn't know how to explain, so he pushed the person behind him into the front and said, "Come on, you tell me!"

Seeing this man, Li Shimin frowned and asked, "Who are you? Who told you that I am here?"

"Your Majesty, I am a personal soldier under General Li Ji. At the order of General Li Ji, I rushed to inform His Majesty of the news. Half an hour ago, I arrived in the palace and saw the queen. The queen told His Majesty here and sent a little eunuch to bring me over."

"What are you saying, can't even the queen say?"

"Report to Your Majesty, General Li Ji gave me the order, and only this matter can be told to Your Majesty."

Li Yuan showed an unhappy look and stood up and said, "Let's go downstairs to see what Boy Li Mu is doing?"

Li Shimin couldn't let him go, so he hurriedly said, "What did the father say? How dare the child carry his father on his back...Captain, what do you say?"

The captain hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, something big happened, Tuli Khan...he is dead!"

"What!"

...

After one stick of incense.

Accompanied by Li Yourong's cry, the captain finally explained the cause and effect clearly. Li Mu, Changsun Wuji, and Wang Gui were all around. Li Shimin was a little confused about such a big thing. It happened that Changsun Wuji and others were there, so he called the person over and discussed it together.

According to the lieutenant, Tuli Khan died of poisoning. When the group arrived in Bingzhou, Li Ji, as the governor of Bingzhou, naturally had to do his best to serve as a landlord and have a banquet. The next day, Tuli said goodbye and Li Ji sent him ten miles to bid farewell. Tuli was still fine, but on the evening of that day, Tuli and his team set up a meal. The meal was ready and the guards were sent to Tuli's tent, but they found that Tuli foaming at the mouth was no longer possible.

When Li Ji heard the news, he quickly took the doctor over. It was too late. Although Tuli woke up, he was already looking back and the medicine was useless. The leaders of Tuli's tribe unanimously believed that Li Ji had poisoned him and surrounded Li Ji and the people he brought to kill them to avenge Tuli. But Tuli struggled for the last bit of strength, saying that this matter had nothing to do with Li Ji and no one could make a rash. Before he died, he wrote a short blood letter on his clothes and left.

The captain also brought this short memorial here.

Tuli's last words explained two things in total. The first thing was to tell Li Shimin that his death had nothing to do with Li Ji, and the person who poisoned him was a pale and like a ghost. The second thing was to hope that the Tang Dynasty could treat his tribe well and not suspect that his tribe would revenge because of his death, and not reward the Hetao grassland to his tribe members.

There is a third thing later, but after only a few words were written, the handwriting began to be crooked. I guess it was because when I wrote this, people were no longer able to do it.

Li Yourong held the blood letter and cried: "Uncle must be worried that I am unfilial... I didn't meet my uncle for the last time. Uncle, I must avenge you, I must avenge you!"

Li Yourong choked and almost twitched. Those who heard it were sad, while those who watched it couldn't bear it.

Li Yuan patted her on the back and said to Li Shimin: "Who is the one who is trying to kill this? This person deserves to die! With that Li Ji, he can't escape responsibility!"

Li Mu quickly said, "Why are you unreasonable, your elder brother? What does it have to do with my adopted father? This blood book is clearly written. The person who poisoned him is not my adopted father. It is not easy to falsely accuse me!"

"Is this called lying to him?" Li Yuan glared at Li Mu fiercely and said, "You are his adopted son, so you are naturally talking to him. He lives well. My baby granddaughter, just such a relative, who will speak for her?"

"Old man, don't say that. Aren't you also her relative? And Your Majesty, we are all relatives, all..."

"Say less!" Li Shimin interrupted Li Mu's words. His sudden death disrupted his layout. For a moment, Li Shimin was also a little confused. He looked at Li Yourong and asked, "I am also sad for your uncle's misfortune. But now that things have come to this, what's the use of sadness? Before your uncle died, he was still worried about his tribe. I can understand his thoughts and promised no less rewards. But he died young, and I don't know if he has any children?"

Li Yourong wiped his tears and said, "Before my uncle married, the Princess Yang of Sui, he had a son. But the couple had different personalities and almost didn't live together. I rarely see this younger brother. It's true that this child is only ten years old, and now he is afraid he can't bear the heavy responsibility. I have two uncles, Ashina, Ashina, and Ashina, Yugu, both of whom are born in vain and have always been incompatible with my uncle. If they take over my uncle's tribe, then the child will..." As he said, Li Yourong knelt down and kowtowed and begged: "Your Majesty, my daughter asks you to bring your uncle's only child to Chang'an for my care. Now, this is the only thing my daughter can do for my uncle."
