The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 370

The old ancestors said it well: being an official for thousands of miles is only for money.

Li Muyun, who can come up with an idea and wants to go up the mountain to become a bandit, naturally won't have such a high level of consciousness. He only thinks about the people of Tang Dynasty. When it comes time to collect money, he will never be soft.

And he also found a good excuse for this: being a courtier must always have some hobbies, otherwise you will always be selfless, and in the end you will be suspected by His Majesty of the Emperor with ulterior motives!
Using this excuse, Li Muyun pocketed the sixteen thousand money with peace of mind, without any sign of guilt.

But he thought so, but Yu Zhining didn't think so. The little old man was standing behind Li Muyun, listening to him muttering to himself, almost turned his nose in anger, and picked up a stick from behind. He swung it up with the wooden stick he got from somewhere, and said angrily: "This old man beat you to death, you scoundrel!"

Naturally, with Li Muyun's skill, he would not be caught by Old Master Yu. The moment the strong wind blew from behind him, he had already dashed out, and the military thorn also appeared in his hand at the same time.

But at the moment when Li Muyun was about to fight back, Old Master Yu yelled in his ears. He was so frightened that he quickly retracted the military stab in his hand with a shake of his hands, hugged his head with both hands, and stiffened At the same time, he was whipped with a stick and shouted while running: "Master Yu, Teacher Yu, what are you doing!"

"What are you doing?! This old man beats you to death, you disgraceful, dishonest, corrupt and perverted scoundrel!" Although Yu Zhining had just whipped Li Muyun with a stick, he didn't feel relieved, and continued to chase after him endlessly with the stick.

Li Muyun was confused by Yu Zhining's thoughtless fury, he could understand that he was corrupt and perverted the law, but where did he start to say that he was insulting the gentlemen?Since when did he have anything to do with gentleness?
But right now is really not the time to discuss this. The old man Yu Zhining is still chasing after him, so it's important to run for his life.

So Tang Xiaoyaohou ran up and down in the small courtyard like a monkey, and Yu Zhining was chasing after him relentlessly.

Until the last half, the old man was out of breath and couldn't run anymore. He stood there with a stick and gasped, cursing: "You, you villain, still, don't stop!"

"No, Teacher Yu, what's the matter with me, why are you in such a hurry!" Seeing that Lao Yu stopped chasing him, Li Muyun also stopped, and asked without blushing without panting.

"Why? You still have the face to ask why?" Old man Yu was already angry, seeing that he was as tired as a dead dog, but Li Muyun was like a normal person, even the speed of his breathing did not change However, the anger in his heart became even worse, and he pointed a stick at a pile of boxes on the ground and asked, "Come and tell me, what are these on the ground!"

Li Muyun blinked innocently: "Of course it's money!"

"Where did you come from?" Old Yu asked sharply.

Li Muyun said confidently: "I won the bet!"

Aiya, I go!It was the first time that Yu Zhining saw someone who was greedy for money so righteously, he was almost overwhelmed with anger, and asked tremblingly: "Sinister, you still haven't told the truth, do you want to die of anger?" old man!"

Yu Zhining came here to teach Li Muyun to read under Li Shimin's order, so Li Muyun is naturally his disciple, so it's only natural that he scolded him.

However, Li Muyun will never admit that he was greedy for money. This kind of thing has always been frank and lenient, and he will be imprisoned, so no matter what Lao Yu asks, he just insists that the money is won by him from a bet with others Yes, I was so angry that I couldn't do anything, I even forgot the purpose of coming here to find him.

When Jiang Renbin and others heard the news at last, they rushed to take the stick out of Lao Yu's hand even after pulling and persuading him, which also gave Lao Yu a step down.

"Master Yu, calm down, don't be so angry." When Yu Zhining's stick was taken away, Jiang Renbin personally helped him and sat him down in Li Muyun's study.

"How can the old man not be angry, such a villain, really angry with the old man." Yu Zhining panted heavily, and Li Muyun, who stood at the door with an innocent face, said angrily.

"Your Excellency, don't be angry anymore. Master Hou has no choice but to do so. If not, those businessmen won't act honestly." Jiang Renbin glanced back at Li Muyun, turned around and said to Zhining: "Master Hou made a bet with those businessmen for the sake of us in Shuozhou. We really don't have the money to finish the road construction right now. Without the investment from those businessmen, this project would have to stop."

"What?" Yu Zhining was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked: "Didn't the court pay for the road construction? How could it be the Shuozhou government? Did you make a mistake?"

"That's right! Teacher Yu, you also know that the court is not rich now. It is obviously not realistic for the court to spend 10,000+ guns to build roads for us." Speaking of road construction, Li Muyun jumped again. Come out: "So I decided not to wait or rely on, rely on my own efforts, and rely on our own ability in Shuozhou Prefecture to build the road."

"This not only saves the country's expenses, but also provides convenience for the people of Shuozhou to travel. Although some road maintenance fees will be collected in the future, it is also for road maintenance."

"Stop!" Yu Zhining interrupted Li Muyun, who was bragging, with a wave of his hand: "Leave this matter aside for now, you come and tell the old man, what's going on with the Taixue matter!"

"Tai Xue? What's wrong with Tai Xue? Is there nothing wrong?" Li Muyun asked suspiciously.

"It's okay? Tell me, did you kill someone in the Taixue? Did you turn the Taixue upside down?" Seeing Li Muyun pretending to be stupid, Yu Zhining became even more angry.

"That's it? Isn't this matter already over? His Majesty the Emperor won't pursue it!" Li Muyun was troubled, he never thought that Yu Zhining came to him in a rage, and it turned out that he was here for the reason Chang'an himself made a big fuss about Taixue.

"It's over?" Yu Zhining was irritated again by Li Muyun's nonchalant attitude, pointed to his nose and said, "Do you know how many people in the Tang Dynasty came out of Taixue? Do you know that Taixue is a scholar of the world?" The Holy Land in my mind? You made a big fuss there, have you ever thought about the consequences? Did you end the consequences as soon as you said they were over? How do scholars and literati all over the world think of you! Do you think they praise you, or call you vexatious!"

It has to be said that Yu Zhining's words are not wrong at all. If Li Muyun really wants to pursue an official career and seek a position in the center, the impact of this kind of incident on him will indeed be considerable.

But what Old Yu didn't know was that Li Muyun was very unambitious, he didn't even want to enter the center, and he didn't even want to be an official if possible, so he didn't care what the scholars of the world thought!
