"Can you recommend one or two more talented peers?" Liu Chongchong was not making a request, but in a pleading tone, he knew Liu Mu's character very well, and said softly that there was still a chance, and if he asked for it as the patriarch, it would definitely be fruitless.

Liu Mu understands this, he heard Cui Yiye say that the Tang Dynasty is not as useful as a recommendation by taking the exam.

The more a person has a status, the more useful it is.

"Okay, Taigong chose the two of them to go south with me this time. If you are really talented, I will recommend it after returning to Chang'an. Liu Mu also understands that as a member of the Liu clan, he really can't avoid this kind of thing, and it's not easy to refuse.

Liu Chongchong asked again to select four people, and two of them were selected from the best. This means that Liu Mu must make two letters of recommendation, and Liu Mu agreed, but Liu Mu also said: "If the four of them are all waste materials, I will not issue a letter of recommendation." ”

"That's it, let's talk about another thing."

"Taigong, you said."

"Her Royal Highness Princess Changping discussed with your eldest sister a year ago, and she wrote a letter to me. On the New Year's Day, the Chenjun Xie family, the Langya Wang family, and the Hongnong Yang family are all willing to choose a concubine. What do you think of it yourself? ”

After Liu Chongchong finished speaking, he stared at Liu Mu's eyes, he needed to marry this time, this was a great opportunity for the Liu clan to make friends with the top clan.

It is said that there are thirty-six families, but there are also ranks.

The five surnames and Qiwang are definitely super wealthy families, but the Hongnong Yang family is the top family among the thirty-six families, and the Liu family can only be regarded as middle and lower. The other two clans are no longer counted as thirty-six families at this time.

When the Langya Wang clan and the Chenjun Xie clan were in the Houjing Rebellion, the big clan was wiped out. But it doesn't mean that the clansmen of these two clans are dead, after all, in the era from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Liang Dynasty, the two clans were the top clans.

Liu Mu felt strange in his heart, and his morality in later life told him that if he talked too closely with a woman after he got married, it was estimated that his wife would be able to turn against him.

But here in Datang, it's just that they have been married for two years and have no children, so Dugu Lanruo is looking for another one for herself.

"Taigong, let me consider this matter, and wait until I go south first to make the arrangements of the saint."

"It's not too public to rush you. The Yang family's marriage is beneficial to the big family, and it is also beneficial to you. The first family other than the five surnames is not called in vain. And the other two clans, the big clan has died out, but the clansmen still exist, they still guard the reputation of the two clans, but the rest of the branches have no chance to become the wang clan, but the foundation is strong, only one chance is needed. ”

Liu Chongchong further explained to Liu Mu.

Liu Mu originally wanted to refuse, and also opposed Dugu Lanruo's idea, but at this time, he was awakened by Liu Chongchong's words.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this Langya Wang family is the first wealthy family in China, and more than seventy percent of the officials in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were children of the Wang family, and the Sima family had to give three points.

After the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the world said that Wang Xie.

It was the Wang family and the Xie family who occupied the court.

The extinction of the big clan does not mean that the family has disappeared, just like the death of the big clan here in the east of the Liujia River, there are still many branches of the Liu clan in the world. Right now, the Xie and Wang families are the same.

Speaking of the Wang family, Liu Mu remembered that there was a celebrity Wang Shouren in the Ming Dynasty in later generations, who was the descendant of Wang Xizhi of the Wang family.

And the Xie family, Xie Yingdeng is the descendant of the Xie family, and in the future, Xie Qian of the Ming Dynasty is also.

"Princess, let me think about it, I have already listened to what you said. I'm biased towards the Xie family in my heart, but let me think about it again. And you can't be in a hurry about it, and you can't take me as an animal. ”

Liu Chongchong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with laughter: "Don't worry, the final decision on this matter is at Princess Changping, the princess has seen people, and she nodded her head." According to the rules of the family, if you marry or accept again, you want the eldest woman to be the master, if this matter is more true, I can still say two sentences, you don't have the right to speak half a word. ”

"This ......," Liu Muxin said, and as a party to this matter, I have no right to speak.

But that's really the case, Liu Mu really doesn't have the right to speak.

After only stopping at the east of the river for two days, the willow began to continue south.

At this time, Liu Mu had two choices, one was to go directly south, then to Dengzhou, then to the east, and then to the Yangtze River, and then to Dongting Lake after the Yangtze River. Then turn to Xiangshui and continue south.

The second is to turn south after arriving in Luoyang.

Yanagi chose the first route, he didn't want to take too many land routes, and chose the water route as much as possible.

Before parting, Li Shimin sent Liu Mu on the boat.

Liu Mu told Li Shimin what Liu Chongchong said, but Li Shimin said: "If you let the second brother suggest, it is appropriate for you to choose the Yang family." Don't ask the reason, I'll tell you when you come back. ”

"Second brother, I am not in Chang'an during this time, in case something happens, can you leave Wei Zheng?"

Li Shimin smiled indifferently: "Of course." ”

Li Shimin didn't tell Liu Mu that he would leave as many people as possible in his thoughts, and what would happen in Chang'an Li Shimin probably already knew in his heart, but when it would happen and under what circumstances, Li Shimin was not sure.

To go to Luoyang is to stabilize a large rear that is beneficial to oneself.

Liu Mu didn't follow, Li Shimin thought it was a good thing, but Liu Mu was still too weak in Li Shimin's heart.

"Second brother, I'm leaving." Willow is ready to get on board.

Li Shimin stood next to the pedal and stretched out a hand, and instead of the boatman, he helped the willow wood to get on the boat.

"Thank you, second brother."

"Don't be reckless in Lingnan, the second brother is not afraid of any rebellion. Also, don't forget to go back to Chang'an. You now answer the second brother seriously, how long will it take for you to come back? ”

Li Shimin didn't wait for Liu Mu to answer after asking, and then said: "Second brother, I remember, you mentioned more than once that you are going to Jiaozhi, or the ends of the world." So the second brother wants an accurate time. ”

Liu Mu had forgotten about it, and the reaction on Liu Mu's face when Li Shimin mentioned it again made Li Shimin smile.

"Go ahead, don't play too long." Li Shimin didn't ask, there was already an answer from the reaction on Liu Mu's face just now, as long as Liu Mu was willing to come back, it would not be a problem to play for a few more months.

Watching Liu Mu's boat go away, the eldest grandson Wuji came to Li Shimin: "Do you have to let him go south?" ”

"No, he asked for it. I can stop it, but I don't want to. ”

"Why?" The eldest grandson Wuji asked.

"Mowgli, there are ten people who must die, do you know who?" Li Shimin's eyes were murderous, and the eldest grandson Wuji was also shocked, he knew who Li Shimin was talking about, and replied in a low voice at the moment: "I will secretly send someone to arrange it." ”

Li Shimin confessed again: "Xiao Mu has a good saying, if you tell a lie all your life, it is not a lie." If this is not done, then the ten men must live and do anything else. ”
