Li Mu also glanced at the sky and said, "In terms of the hour, it's almost the same, and there is still a moment?" It should be soon. No, I have to eat two bites, or I won't have to eat in a while. As he spoke, Li Mu also cut off a piece of lamb ribs and divided it into three parts, first to Bai Qiaoqiao, and then to Li Zhien, and carefully helped them cool off. At this time, the lamb is already medium-rare, and it is the time to eat it.

When Empress Changsun saw it, she couldn't help but move her index finger and stretched out her finger, Li Shimin had to follow Li Mu's example, cut off a piece of sheep ribs, and helped Empress Changsun blow it.

Just when Li Shimin was pouting and blowing the wind, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps from the north. Li Shimin's ears moved, and his experience in leading troops to fight for more than ten years told him that ten horses came from the valley mouth, and the distance was only two miles, and they were rapidly approaching.

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, looked at Li Mu, and said, "Who are you looking for?" Can it be a little more fake? With such an obvious assassination, I will also be tricked? ”

"Hey, Your Majesty, you said that what you are doing with this, it was originally just acting."

"Humph!" Li Shimin muttered, cut open the lamb's ribs, and handed them to Empress Changsun. At this time, Gao Gonggong floated out of nowhere again, came to Li Shimin, and said, "Your Majesty......"

Li Shimin knew what Gonggong Gao was going to say, so he waved his hand indifferently and said, "Don't be so nervous, didn't you listen to Li Mu, it's just acting." ”

"But Your Majesty ......"

Li Shimin waved a scimitar, cut off a leg of mutton, threw it to Gao Gonggong, and said, "Go eat, plug your mouth!" ”

Father-in-law Gao had no choice but to retreat with a leg of mutton, and disappeared in the shadows.

The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and it does not stop when they come to the door. Li Mu also finished eating a piece of lamb chops, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he said to Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien, "Madam, you helped the queen into the house to hide, and the people who came were all reckless people in the rivers and lakes, and they couldn't let them get a glimpse of the queen's phoenix face." ”

This sycophant slapped Li Shimin's heart, and he rarely praised, "You kid can speak." ”

Empress Changsun didn't want to leave, she was born in a famous family, married Li Shimin at the age of thirteen, and she had only heard of the 'people in the rivers and lakes', and had never seen it, so she was quite curious and wanted to stay and see. But as a queen, it was not easy to speak like this, so she had no choice but to follow Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien into the house.

When she entered the house, she found that in fact, it did not prevent her from seeing in the house, the window was glazed, transparent, and not blocked at all.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, and the gate was smashed. The two horsemen broke in, and saw the man on the horse, masked in a black scarf, with a sharp blade in his hand, which seemed to be the case.

Li Shimin nodded approvingly, and said to Li Mudao, "Look at it, it's okay, it's quite a posture!" ”

Li Mu looked pained, grabbed a piece of wood from the bonfire and threw it over, scolding, "You godsends, it's almost enough, what are you doing when you hit the door?" Do you know how much it costs? This is the same wood as the palace gate in the palace, and there is only such a piece left in the stockyard of the Ministry of Industry, and there is nowhere to buy it if you have money! ”

Li Shimin was dumbfounded, frowned, and said, "Good boy, do you dare to use something encroachment?" ”

Li Mu knew that he was speechless, so he hurriedly smiled and explained, "There is only one piece left, and there is nothing to do......"

The two of them chatted like no one, obviously stunned the few people who broke in. The first two looked at each other, and it took a while to realize what they were here for, and they quickly gathered their spirits and showed a fierce light!

Li Mu stared at the person who held the head, and couldn't help but be very unhappy, and scolded, "What, scold you for being unhappy?" Come on, come on, you tear off the face towel, and I'll see who you are? ”

The leader sneered, "You don't need to know who I am, I just know who you are!" Chase the deer Hou Li Mu, today is your death date! ”

After shouting, he raised his knife and slashed it, going straight to Li Mu's head and cutting it off.

Li Mu is a little blind, he has never fought with anyone, and the person who slashed at him with a knife in front of him is clearly a practitioner, and his shot is like electricity! At the critical juncture, it was Li Shimin who reacted, he had been in the army all his life and was particularly sensitive to the perception of danger. As soon as this person made a move, he felt murderous, this is by no means what acting looks like.

Between the lightning and flint, Li Shimin stopped it with a scimitar that cut meat. But how could the scimitar be compared with the horizontal knife, it was picked up in an instant, but the offensive of the horizontal knife was also blocked, and it rubbed Li Shimin's wrist and slashed.

Blood flowed down Li Shimin's arm, and Li Mu realized that something was wrong.

How did anyone know Li Shimin, and when he saw someone making a move, he sneered, "Cowardly as a mouse, and hired a guard?" Okay, today the master will send you away! ”

After that, he led one person to attack Li Shimin, and two more people in the team rushed to Li Mu.

"Help!!"

Li Mu pulled his neck and shouted, which resounded through the valley, and pulled Li Shimin to his studio, although there was no mechanism in it, but at least there was a hammer, which could resist for a while. And this can also divert the thief's attention from the three women in the main room.

"Whoa—"

A sound of breaking the sky sounded, and I saw the person chasing behind Li Mu falling to the ground inexplicably. There was a bloody hole in the back of his neck, like a needle prick. Li Mu pushed Li Shimin into the studio, looked back, it turned out to be a secret weapon issued by Gao Gonggong, and excitedly shouted, "Okay!" Throw a few more and stab them to death! ”

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Gao Gong screamed, fell from the roof, pulled out the soft sword at his waist, stopped the two people who were chasing Li Shimin, and took advantage of the chaos to send out a needle, which blinded one person's eye. Seeing this, the remaining six thieves all swarmed up, and Gao Gonggong fought nine people alone, and instantly fell into a bitter battle. Although his skills are much higher than that of a single thief, his two fists are invincible to four hands, he can block one side, but he can't block eight sides, and he can barely support it, but he is also powerless to kill the thief again.

Li Mu also entered the studio at this time, Li Shimin covered his injured wrist, and said angrily, "What's the situation!" Didn't you arrange these people? ”

Li Mu threw Li Shimin a piece of leather armor piled up in the corner, then turned out the parts of Zhuge Repeater's crossbow, and hurriedly assembled it, "Your Majesty, this is obvious!" Needless to say? ”

"And who are they!"

"Whoever jumps off the wall in a hurry is whoever!"

Li Mu had already assembled a Zhuge crossbow, grabbed an arrow box and stuffed it in, leaned next to the window, and shouted outside, "Father-in-law Gao, go to the room, I can't shoot accurately!" ”

Gao Gonggong took a look, didn't say a word, brushed aside the attacking knives and guns, and went to the roof. Seeing that he was out of battle, Li Mu pulled the trigger, and the repeater crossbow was like a machine gun, and a box was shot out at first glance.

Li Mu saw that there were still people standing, so he hurriedly buckled another box, whooshing -

There were still people standing, another box, whooshing—

Shooting out three boxes of arrows in a row, at such a close distance, even if Li Mu was a blind man, he could shoot it. Seeing that there was no one taller than the window in his sight, Li Mu let out a sigh and sat down on the ground.

Li Shimin is much calmer than him, he has fought countless battles in his life, and he has never seen anything in the wind and waves. He was even in the mood to take a look at the repeater, just now when he watched Li Mu shoot arrows, he had already found the difference, this repeater, compared to the one he personally tested, the recoil was much less. Otherwise, Li Mu would definitely not be able to hold on to the third box.

The point is that this repeater, the speed of changing the arrow box is really fast. Not much, if there are a hundred of these repeating crossbows, coupled with infinite arrows, guarding the pass, 10,000 cavalry will be helpless.

Li Shimin admired the repeater for a while, looked at Li Mu still slumped on the ground, kicked him, and said, "Look at your unproductive appearance, are you afraid of this little battle?" ”

"The minister, the minister is not afraid, the minister's arm is numb." Li Mu's face was pale, he was indeed a lot afraid, he was afraid! Li Shimin is okay today, if he dies here, not only will he be finished, but his whole family, Bai Qiaoqiao, Li Zhien, and his unborn child, his mother, and father-in-law...... All those who have a relationship with him have to be buried with Li Shimin! ”

Li Mu burst into a nameless fire, struggled to get up from the ground, rushed to the yard and shouted, "Is there anyone alive?" Get out of the way! ”

"Oops......" screams came and went, but no one answered his words.

Father-in-law Gao fell from the roof of the house, rushed to Li Shimin's side, saw his wrist bleeding, tears gushing out, and cried, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are injured - the old slave is dead!" Saying that he was going to kneel, Li Shimin grabbed him and said, "Look at the queen!" ”

Empress Changsun came out of the house with Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien, worthy of being a woman who had seen the world, and she couldn't see half of the panic on her face, only a trace of anger. She tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of her skirt and bandaged Li Shimin briefly. glanced at Li Mu, who was hysterically kicking the thief, took Li Shimin's hand, and didn't say anything.

At this time, dozens of people rushed over. The person at the head is Dugu Jiu.

Dugu Jiu led people into the yard, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he was a little stunned. He ran behind Li Mu and hugged him, Li Mu struggled and couldn't get away, so he stopped kicking.

"I almost died, you know!"

Li Mu looked back at Dugu Jiu and shouted, "Your Majesty is almost dead, do you know it!" ”

"Big brother, I'm ...... I'm sorry, I did what you asked, on time—"

"That's right! You're on time! My bad! ”

Li Mu roared and broke free of Dugu Jiu. He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, pointed to the wailing thieves on the ground, and said, "Look at how many are still alive, find someone to bandage their wounds, don't let them die!" Dare to assassinate His Majesty, I'm not done with them! ”

Li Shimin looked at Li Mu like this and almost laughed out loud. No matter how talented you are, you're still a kid after all! instantly regained a lot of self-confidence, and said, "Don't mention me, they made it clear that they were here for you, and I was injured by mistake." I saved you just now, but I can't count you as loyal. ”

Li Mu looked at Li Shimin, his cheeks bulged like a toad, his lips were tightly pursed, and after a while, he said, "Your Majesty, the minister dares to ask, are you afraid of the door valve?" ”

"Uh......" Li Shimin hesitated for a while, and said hesitantly, "I am the emperor, how can I be afraid, it's just ......"

"No, it's just that!" Li Mu interrupted Li Shimin's words and said, "If Your Majesty is not afraid, please support Your Majesty." This time, the minister wants to peel off a layer of skin from them, if this can be done, within two years, the minister will give His Majesty a 10,000-strong cavalry! ”

"Two years?"

Li Shimin remembered that Li Mu said that if it develops steadily, it will take five years. Now Li Mu said that it has been two years, which shows that he is really angry, and there is a lot of oil and water in this layer of skin.

But Li Shimin couldn't make a quick decision on this matter, because there were too many things involved.

Just when there was a stalemate, Empress Eldest Sun suddenly spoke and said, "Li Mu, are you confident?" ”

"The minister will win, and if he doesn't win, he will die!"

Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Shimin and said, "What is Your Majesty still hesitating about?" Li Mu was ordered to do things, but the gate lord family and others sent people to assassinate him. If such people who have no royal law are not punished, will anyone still care about His Majesty's holy decree in the future? Whoever does things for Your Majesty will have to die, what does it mean that Your Majesty deserves to be the emperor? ”

Li Shimin looked at his queen and was extremely surprised. In his impression, his queen is the most forbearant person. But today, she is unusual. If it is said that he was angry by this move of the gate valve family, Li Shimin felt that it made no sense. Could it be that she thinks Li Mu can do it?

Li Shimin thought for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "I was assassinated and wounded while I was recuperating in the valley. The deer Hou is loyal and brave, and the protection is thorough. Passed the decree, Su Guo Gongcheng bit Jin Su and led the troops to escort him, and the military department Shangshu Hou Junji protected the Taishang Emperor, guarding the whole city, no one was allowed to enter and exit, and hundreds of officials were not allowed to leave the house. ”

Li Shimin said, paused, and said, "Gao Gan, go back to the palace, take my saber, and give it to Li Mu." ”

"Your Majesty, this ......"

"Go get it."

Li Shimin looked at Li Mu and said, "I will only give you three days, and after three days, if there is no result...... Just do as you say. ”

Li Mu nodded solemnly, he understood that Li Shimin meant that if the matter was not resolved after three days, he would have to die, otherwise he would not be able to block Youyou's mouth.

It's a life-and-death battle!

He had to win!

"Let's go, go back to sleep!" Li Shimin yawned, turned around and walked out of the small courtyard, and went to the "Liuli Palace" prepared for him by Li Mu.

Dugu Jiu immediately sent half of the Jinyi guards to follow, and Li Shimin must not make any more mistakes.

Li Mu took a deep breath, his face was solemn, for a long time, he patted Dugu Jiu's shoulder, didn't say anything, passed by, and took his wife and concubine's hand into the house.

Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien were also frightened, especially Bai Qiaoqiao, who was still pregnant.

Weffo was in the crowd, taking all the information into his eyes. Seeing Li Mu turn around, he approached Dugu Jiu and whispered, "The envoy of the pacification, the subordinates are okay, how about sending the order back to the city for the envoy of the pacification?" ”

In Jinyi Weizhong, except for Dugu Jiu, Wei Fu's light skills are the best, and he is indeed the best candidate. Dugu Jiu nodded and said, "First go to the Suguo Mansion to report the news, and it is important to protect Your Majesty."

"My subordinates understand!"
