Chapter 453 Li Er's warning

"Well! This word is well written, and the idiom is also very well used, but the low fertility rate is a bit scary." Li Muyun closed the memorial and put it back on Li Er's desk, and said seriously.

"Fertility rate?" Li Shimin frowned. He had just read the memorial that Li Muyun had just read, and there was no mention of anything related to fertility.

Seeing that Li Er was a little confused, Li Muyun opened the memorial and pointed to a passage inside and said, "Then, it's not like 'There are nine people in the age of Maomao. Your Majesty, think about it, a state capital only has nine children in a year. How can this happen? How can we achieve the four modernizations!"

"Bang", as soon as Li Muyun finished speaking, his head was smashed by Li Er with another memorial in his hand: "Idiot! That's called octogen, which refers to an old man over 80 years old, and he is still a maomao. I think you are a maomao!"

Li Muyun scratched his head awkwardly. He stumbled for a long time, but he didn't even stumble at the end.

Fortunately, Li Shimin did not have the intention of taking the exam. The reason why he asked him to read the memorials was mainly to read the memorials, so he didn't want to talk nonsense to him anymore. He just poked the memorials with his finger: "This is the prince's reply, what do you think of this approval?"

Li Muyun took a deep breath in the prince's reply, and a person's name flashed through his mind, and he replied with a conditioned reflex: "Your Majesty, look at my level, how can I answer this question!"

"If you have any questions about this, you can say whatever you think. Today I can forgive you for not guilty." Li Shimin said.

Li Muyun deeply despised the Emperor of Tang in front of him from the bottom of his heart. It sounds nice to say, but in the end it is not meant to be guilty, but it just won't be investigated.

After such thought flashed through his heart, Li Muyun said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, I am a rough man and can't speak. Even the old and the young can't tell me clearly. You should not make things difficult for me!"

Li Shimin's face was slightly dark, and he threw the memorial that he had just used to smash Li Muyun on the table: "If you don't answer, you're deceiving the king."

Li Muyun's muscles twitched: "Your Majesty, you..., aren't you making things difficult for me? I am just a grassroots. I was lucky to be appreciated by Your Majesty to get to this position today. How can I evaluate the length of the prince? You said?"

"The prince has foot disease and is worried about it every day; and there are also ministers in the court who suggest that the prince is not good at doing things, which will damage the Tang Dynasty's system. The prince should be abolished and the crown prince should be re-established." It is rare that there are no outsiders around him. Li Shimin showed a depressed expression for the first time: "You are different from others. Tell me what you think!"

Somehow, a short joke I had heard before suddenly flashed through Li Muyun's mind - "Yuan Fang, what do you think!"

He did not think that he had the ability to change anything, but would cause trouble from the mouth. As a few emperors in history, would Li Shimin know how to choose his heir? I'm afraid it may not be possible! So this kind of thing is actually saying more and making more mistakes, saying less and making less mistakes, not saying anything well! If possible, it is best not to say nothing.

Thinking of this, Li Muyun said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, in fact, what you are talking about is not a problem in my opinion. What is important is how you think. The ancients had Yun, and their butt determines their heads, which is what they think about when they sit."

"To give the simplest example, when I was in the village, I would think, what does the Emperor eat every day? Can I eat six steamed buns a day? Eight eggs are placed on the table! So, Your Majesty, it’s not that I don’t want to say it, but that I really can’t say it. The positions of each other are different and the ways of looking at problems are different. I really don’t want to use my own thoughts to mislead Your Majesty to make a wrong decision. Please forgive me!"

"Haha..." Li Shimin suddenly smiled and pointed at Li Muyun and said, "You were much more cute in the village back then than you are now. It can be seen that this person really changes, but you boy has become much slippery."

"Your Majesty, I am not slick, I just don't want you to make wrong judgments because of other people's opinions." Li Muyun denied.

"What is your basis? Right or wrong, right or wrong, what are you going to judge? How do you know that my decision is right and your decision is wrong?" Li Shimin seemed to have gotten into the horns and kept asking.

"Your Majesty, I don't know who is right and who is wrong, but I know that if I don't understand something, don't comment on it. What you are doing now is like a general who is about to start a war with the enemy. When asking an ordinary citizen how to fight, the answer you get will not have any result except being misled."

Li Shimin was silent, looked at Li Muyun deeply, and did not speak for a long time, as if he was considering the purpose of his words. Finally, he nodded: "Although you are escaping from my problem, I have to say that you have indeed succeeded!"

"Your Majesty..." Li Muyun rubbed his hands awkwardly.

Li Shimin waved his hand and interrupted him: "You don't need to say anything. I know what you want to say. You are very smart and have strong adaptability. But I can tell you clearly that you can't stay in the court like you for long."

"Ah?!" Li Muyun looked at Li Shimin in amazement, a little at a loss: "Your Majesty, what do you mean? I have no other thoughts, don't misunderstand."

"I have no misunderstanding, I am just telling a fact." Li Shimin said lightly: "In this world, you can be black or white. No matter black or white, you will have your own circle. But if you are neither black nor white, you will become an alien in everyone's eyes. No matter black or white, you will exclude you. In this way, what will happen in the end will not be the result, right?"

Li Muyun blinked, as if understanding Li Shimin's words.

He used to be a person who wandered on the edge of black and white, but at that time he was just a killer, a lone killer. But now it is different. His current official is the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, and it has become extremely difficult to wander between black and white. He deeply touched this point.

He is smart, but others are not fools. There are many things he can say, but he is better off listening to. Even if Li Muyun talks about something, in the end, someone will find his flaws.

So no matter how Li Muyun struggles, he will eventually make a choice, either surrendering to Li Er or surrendering to the powerful family. In short, he must choose his own position, otherwise it will become the target of everyone's suppression.

This is Li Shimin’s warning to him!
