Chapter 37
"Little Mu 'er, do you really not want to be the emperor?”
This was Li Yuan's first and last chance to ask Li Mu. Li Mu had been liked by Li Yuan since he was young. At this age, Li Yuan did not have much ambition!
He had also thought that even if he snatched back the throne, he would not be able to be the emperor for a few years. In the end, he would still have to pass the throne to his relatives.
Li Shiming was the only one who was alive among his own sons. If he passed it on to his grandson, it would be Li Mu!
Therefore, Li Yuan had been hiding his trump card all these years, which was actually prepared for Li Mu. If Li Mu wanted to be the emperor, he would continue to hide his trump card and find an opportunity to help Li Mu.
If Li Mu really didn't want to do it, then there was no other way. He could just surface and do the refined salt business!
Li Mu answered without hesitation.
"Of course I don't want to. I've already told you that being an emperor is not good at all. I don't want to be an emperor!”
"Then, Little Mu 'er, don't regret it in the future. This is the last time Imperial Grandfather will ask you!”
Li Yuan looked deeply at Li Mu, his eyes extremely solemn. This was a chance for him and Li Shiming to improve their relationship. Li Shiming had already given in. If he didn't give him face, there wouldn't be a next time.
Li Yuan also desired kinship. It was not that he was afraid of Li Shiming, but he was already at this age. After so long, time had long diluted everything.
Therefore, if Li Mu really had no other ideas this time, Li Yuan would just walk down the stairs.
"Hahaha, Imperial Grandfather, no matter how many times you ask, I won't want to be the Emperor!”
Li Mu laughed and said.
For Li Mu, he had a very thorough understanding. What was so good about being an emperor? Think about the aristocratic families. They were not emperors, but they were still local emperors. Even the emperor did not dare to provoke them easily!
He was living a much freer and more comfortable life than the emperor.
At the very least, the emperor would be the one to deal with natural disasters and man-made disasters!
"Alright, in that case, I won't say anything more. Take this token and leave the palace. Go to the Drunken Immortal Residence and show this token to the shopkeeper. At that time, he will prepare everything for you!”
Li Yuan nodded silently and did not say anything. He had given Li Mu a chance. Since Li Mu had chosen not to be the emperor, then forget it.
He slowly took out a black-gold token from his pocket. The word 'Li' was written in the middle of the token!
"Hiss, no wonder Imperial Father didn't pay. So Imperial Grandfather is rich!”
Li Mu looked at Li Yuan in surprise and said.
"Sigh, it's just a little. It's useless. Take it! As for the matter of refined salt, you can handle it yourself. Zhen is waiting to move into the new palace!”
Li Yuan waved his hand and relaxed. It was as if he had let go of all his stubbornness.
"Alright, I'll go out now!"
Li Mu nodded.
"Go, and help me pass on a message. Say that you've worked hard!”
Li Yuan looked at the sky with a deep gaze and said indifferently.
This group of people had concealed their identities for so many years. They should have been conferred titles and become officials with unlimited prospects. However, they could only hide in the dark and become merchants.
It had been more than ten years all of a sudden. It had really been hard on them!
"Good!"
Li Mu nodded and turned to leave.
As for Li Yuan, he silently watched Li Mu's departing figure. The corners of his mouth slowly curved into an arc. In the end, it became bigger and bigger, and his entire person laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha!"
No one knew what Li Yuan was laughing about, but they knew that Li Yuan's mental state had undergone a huge change. If it was before, he would have been shackled, but now, the shackles seemed to have been unlocked!
"Men, bring me to the Imperial Garden for a stroll!”
...
Elsewhere, Li Shiming was still in Zhangsun Wugou's bedroom when he suddenly heard a report from a young eunuch that the Retired Emperor had actually walked out of Taiji Palace and was admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden!
"Is this true? Is Retired Emperor really enjoying the flowers in the Imperial Garden?”
Li Shi Min looked at the young eunuch with a serious expression and asked loudly.
"Indeed, this lowly one looks at Retired Emperor and seems to be very happy, very happy, and very relaxed!”
The little eunuch did not dare to hide anything and immediately told him everything he had seen!
"Alright, you can leave now!" Li Shi Min waved his hand.
The young eunuch bowed and hurriedly retreated.
After the young eunuch left, Li Shiming looked at Zhangsun Wugou with a face full of joy and said loudly.
"Hahahaha, Guanyin Maid, has Mu 'er succeeded?”
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Zhangsun Wugou also had a smile on his face as he hurriedly congratulated him.
"Hahahaha, the heavens bless the Great Tang! The heavens bless the Great Tang!"
Li Shi Min laughed maniacally!
