Li Shimin was worried about a change, so he wrote the contract and used the emperor's jade seal. This behavior was a bit unstoppable, but he was so happy that he didn't care much about it. After writing, Li Shimin looked at the font on the contract and suddenly felt that his calligraphy had been improved. It seemed that the ancients said that characters were the form of meaning, and it was indeed not to deceive, and his mood could indeed affect the quality of calligraphy.

"Li Mu, take it! I feel relieved to do this? I can't regret it anymore."

"Haha." Li Mu squeezed out a smile that was not smiling, took the contract, folded it twice, stuffed it into his arms, and sighed: "Jiang is still so hot, I've been defeated this time."

Li Shimin immediately responded: "Didn't you say you're going to make a profit? I gave you the advantage, how do you think you're going to suffer? Are you cheating on me?"

Li Mu sighed again and said, "I am planning to not pay compensation because I will work hard to do it well. But no matter what, this is a matter of the country, and the court or Your Majesty should bear the risks. Even if the risk is only a little bit, I think this is the rule. But today, Your Majesty and the Dukes are still unwilling to bear even a slight risk when they have tried their best to do it. They choose to impose these risks on me. I have nothing to say, but I can only kneel down to thank my emperor for his kindness."

Li Mu knelt down and kowtowed, Li Shimin's face turned a little ugly.

"Your Majesty, I am tired, please take your leave." After that, Li Mu turned around and left.

"Stop it for me!"

Li Mu turned a deaf ear and walked out of Liangyi Hall. Li Shimin looked at Li Mu's back and felt very uncomfortable. The joy that he felt just now because he "wind" Li Mu was instantly dispersed, and everyone standing beside him was also extremely embarrassed. This matter was a mess, although Li Mu had fulfilled his wish and was taken on it, but why was it so awkward? It seemed that there was no one in the Tang Dynasty and the rulers and ministers jointly bullied a child.

If we come from the theory of the original mind, although everyone did this, they did not think so. Or there were many thoughts of gloating, but they really didn't mean to bully Li Mu. They just used to seeing him domineering in their daily lives and wanted to slap his aggression.

But in this situation, seeing Li Mu leaving with a decadent look, everyone felt uncomfortable. Think about it carefully, Li Mu had nothing to say except for his bad words and good at taking advantage of his reputation. Whether it was someone he dealt with or not, as long as he found him in a serious matter, he basically did it. Even if he hated the Shandong gentry the most, he did not turn it out, at most he would just derogatory words.

Thinking of this, what the monarch and ministers do today seems to be a bit too much.

...

Five days passed in a moment, and the thirteenth day of the first lunar month was coming.

On these five days, after breakfast, Li Mu went to Pingkangfang to perform the show. He returned home in the afternoon and began to deal with the Turkic trade. At dusk, a sorted memorial would be sent to the palace for Li Shimin to read. But he himself did not go to the palace, as if he was angry.

He deliberately wrote the memorial in detail, so detailed that Li Shimin wanted to find a question, but there was nothing to ask. At the same time, Datang Insurance was also established. Since it was Li Mu's own assets to endorse it, it was not listed under the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He cleared a courtyard opposite the bank of the Craftsman's Shop. Even if it was established, there was no one in it. Since the business had not been officially started, there should be no one in it. Li Mu asked Wei Yingluo and Zhenzhu to move in. On the third day after the New Year, Wei Yingluo came to work consciously. When Li Mu was not in the Ministry of Works, thanks to her secretary's efforts, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was able to coordinate smoothly.

Many businessmen have figured out the trick. Although Li Mu has the final say in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he is not often a director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In fact, the key figure is the so-called secretary. What’s strange is that this person is Li Mu’s mortal enemy and Wei Zheng’s daughter. It’s somewhat confused. What’s going on.

Li Mu has never had doubts, but so far, Wei Yingluo has done a good job. Public is public and private is private, and she has never confused her. Li Mu just uses people without doubting them, so she has not tried much.

The Lantern Festival, which is Li Mu's previous life's Lantern Festival, can be traced back to the Han Dynasty and was also a big festival in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty imposed a curfew. In Chang'an City, except for Pingkangfang, which can be used for all night, the other 107 fangs have to be used for curfew. Only three days before and after the Lantern Festival is a national legal festival, which can be lit all night.

There are only these three days of carnival in a year, so the people naturally want to join in the fun. This is also the best opportunity for the wealthy people in Chang'an City to show off their wealth. The lamp wheels, lamp trees, lamp buildings, etc., and various new lanterns are designed ingeniously and exquisitely. Each family and the government not only introduces new lantern production, but also has a lot of singing and dancing under the lamp. The beautiful women wear flower crowns and robes on their heads. The expensive ones will cost hundreds of cents of clothing alone.

Although each house will prepare lanterns, Pingkangfang, the flagship of the Tang Dynasty entertainment industry, is always the most eye-catching. Other houses are all big players in the house, so they prepare giant lanterns, lantern trees, singing and dancing. However, in Pingkangfang, there are lanterns, stages, and singing and dancing at the entrance of each brothel. Moreover, on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, the ceremonials must be selected. The brothel owner who owns the ceremonials will be the ceremonials of Pingkangfang this year, representing Pingkangfang to deal with the government.

Don’t underestimate this small Fangzheng. In the territory of Pingkangfang, Fangzheng’s official position is small, but the amount of money is quite good. It is ordinary, without any visible mountains or leaks, and there are thousands of stakes a year, plus the blessing of the courtesan. Whoever wins this game will be full this year.

The situation this year is different. Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhulu, bought half of Pingkangfang. In this case, even if the brothel of the courtesan is released, he would never dare to compete with him. So before the Shangyuan Festival celebration this year, all the owners came to Lichunyuan to find out the news. There is no way. Half of Pingkangfang belongs to others. If you don’t nod, the courtesan competition will be meaningless.

Li Mu had known this rule, but he didn't want to change it because he was confident that he would win. He asked Ergou to meet these brothel owners and agreed that as usual this year, everyone would rely on their abilities. After the bosses received Li Mu's promise, they all returned to their own houses to prepare.

Li Mu's injustice was almost done, but it was still not good to perform such a sad drama on such a festive festival as the Spring Festival. So Li Mu changed his mind temporarily and postponed the premiere of Dou E's injustice until after the Spring Festival. During the past few days of the Spring Festival, he prepared a new killer weapon to deal with this courtesan competition.

When Li Mu was in college, he took an elective course called the History of Chinese Literature, which talked about the evolutionary process of literary carriers.

It was originally called "Feng Yasong", which is the Book of Songs. Feng, local style songs, elegance, music, chants, chants, ancestral temple sacrifices, and speeches praising the gods.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, it was the world of "Yuefu Poetry". Yuefu was the official office that managed music during the Qin Dynasty, and it was used in its name in the Han Dynasty. Yuefu Poetry is mainly narrative and can be accompanied by music, which can be sing and danced.

During the period from the late Han Dynasty to the unification of the Sui Dynasty, due to years of wars, wars between Hu and Han, and other factors, the music scores of Yuefu were lost, which directly led to the decline of Yuefu poetry. Some had songs but no lyrics, and some had lyrics but no lyrics, and very few were preserved intact. Therefore, when singing and dancing, most of the time there was only music, but no lyrics. The part of the lyrics became a retained format, and the poet created in this format, gradually forming "Tang Poetry".

If you study the evolution of this, you will find that the evolution of literature is a process from simple to complex. For example, in the era of the Book of Songs, a poem with a long pillow often describes a very simple thing. The poems and essays at this time mainly include "four characters", such as: the reeds are green and the white dew turns into frost, and the so-called beauty is on the side of the water.

Most Yuefu poems are "five-character" and one more word is added to greatly improve the narrative ability. For example, Jiji and Jiji, Mulan is weaving in a family. She does not hear the sound of the loom, but only hears the sigh of a girl.

In the Tang Dynasty, the five-character verses of Yuefu were first inherited, and then the more complex seven-character quatrains evolved. This process was the increasing number of words and the increasing complexity.

After the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was the Song Dynasty. Song Ci regained the soul of Yuefu poetry, not sticking to five-character or seven-character poems. Use words to match the tunes, so the iconic long and short sentences of "Song Ci" were formed.

Later in the Yuan Dynasty, I was not satisfied with the formatting narrative of "long and short sentences", and added elements such as sets, performances, singing, reciting and playing, forming miscellaneous songs. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, literati and poets developed novels based on the storyline of miscellaneous songs. Everything was headed in a direction with more words, stronger narrative ability and more complexity.

It is now the early Tang Dynasty, and the poems and prose are more in the five-character Yuefu format, and the seven-character quatrains are mostly means of "high-level poets" showing off their skills. Li Mu can recite 300 Tang poems, but whether it is speechless or seven-character, it is not suitable for the occasion of the Shangyuan Festival. This is like the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve, when the host suddenly reports the show. The following program is poetry recitation, which is not bad, but it will be very awkward.

In such a celebration, the most suitable one is singing and dancing.

Dance is very simple. Lichunyuan is from Jiaofangsi. Song and dance are their old professions. You can just use it and rehearse it casually. The same is true for singing. Although not many Yuefu poems are preserved in full, Jiaofangsi is still a little good at Jiaofangsi.

But these can be found in other brothels. Everyone is the same, obviously not outstanding.

Therefore, the killer Li Mu prepared was to take another step forward in the process of history.

When everyone is having fun in the Yuefu, I will give you a Song Ci. Isn’t this novel?
