Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

"Uh... well... they are rolling out the red carpet for me. It's a happy day, so shouldn't we be more festive?

Just be flexible."

Li Shen scratched his head in embarrassment, then smiled and said to the general who was guarding the gate.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, this is His Majesty's order. No one may disobey it. Otherwise, it would be disobeying His Majesty's order. I cannot make any compromise."

The general who was guarding the gate had a very serious look on his face and did not give Li Shen any face at all.

"Hmph, ignorant."

Li Zhi watched coldly, snorted, and entered the palace with his family.

Li Shen was helpless, knowing that his father was angry and had issued the decree on purpose.

"Okay, you all just wait here.

By the way, tell Cheng Chuliang and the others not to play too crazy when they go to watch the ceremony, and not to allow any stampedes.

Signal yourself in the crowd and let them control the crowd.

Tell Cheng Chuliang and the others that if there is a stampede, I will strip them naked and throw them into the river to catch turtles."

"Yes, Your Highness Prince Ji."

After Li Shen finished speaking, he took his family and servants and carried his belongings into the palace.

After entering the palace, Li Shen and Li Zhi were taken to Taiji Hall by eunuchs, while their families were arranged to the place for the coming-of-age ceremony.

The two of them had to go to the Taiji Hall first to pay their respects to Li Shimin.

"Xuan~~Prince of Jin Li Zhi, Prince of Ji Li Shen, go to the palace to see the emperor~~~~~"

Following a loud chant at the entrance of the hall, Li Shen and Li Zhi both walked into the Taiji Hall.

Hundreds of officials gathered in the hall, and everyone's eyes were on Li Shen and Li Zhi.

Today is the auspicious day when these two princes come of age.

Your Majesty showed mercy and performed the ceremony of coming of age for the two of them in the imperial palace.

"Sir, see Aye."

The two walked to the front and saluted together.

"Well, no need to be so polite." Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Prince Jin, Prince Ji, you two have reached the age of twenty. Today I will hold a ceremony for you both to enter the imperial palace.

There were also many important ministers of the country who performed the ceremony of capping him.

What do you two think? "

"Thank you for your grace, son."

The two of them bowed again to express their gratitude.

Li Shen was thinking in his heart, isn't this nonsense? We have been preparing for so long, everyone knows it, why are you still asking?

Ancient rituals are trouble.

"Okay, my dear ministers, please follow me to watch the ceremony." Li Shimin stood up and said to his ministers.

"It is your honor."

"Your Majesty, please move to Chengqing Palace~~~~~"

Chengqing Hall is located on the west side of Liangyi Hall and is mainly used for various court activities.

In fact, Li Shimin wanted to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for his two sons in the Taiji Hall, but was rejected by the ministers.

The Taiji Hall is of great significance. Only the emperor and the crown prince can hold ceremonial activities here, and no one else can do so at present.

After hearing this, Li Shimin had no choice but to give up and change the name to Chengqing Hall.

When we arrived at Chengqing Hall, there were already many officials' families here, and the Queen and four concubines were sitting inside.

One is her biological son, and the other is as good as her biological son. Today, both of them have grown up. Empress Changsun is happier than Concubine Wei, her biological mother.

All the ladies of the third rank and above sat together with the empress, and received all kinds of compliments and praises.

"I really envy the Queen, she has taught Prince Jin and Prince Ji so well, unlike my Dalang and Erlang who are always causing trouble.

The Queen is really a good parent. "

A duke's wife praised.

"Yes, the Queen is both virtuous and talented, which is why she was able to teach princes like the Prince of Jin and the Prince of Ji.

We all need to learn more from the Queen."

The other duke's wife also echoed.

"Haha, no, no, they are all in order on their own, I am just teaching them how to behave.

Speaking of teaching, Concubine Wei is the one who really teaches well."

The queen responded with a smile.

Some of them are newly appointed ladies of the third rank, so their intention to curry favor is too obvious.

But there are some people who are different, such as the Duke's wife, who is very calm.

They would not ignore another important person here, Concubine Wei, the mother of Prince Ji Li Shen.

Although the Prince of Jin was born of a legitimate wife, he was mediocre and had no significant contributions over the years.

But Prince Ji is different. No matter how the outside world criticizes him, his achievements are real. Outsiders don’t know, but the wives of the dukes have heard about it from their husbands.

In the Tang Dynasty, I would rather offend His Majesty than offend Prince Ji.

Because Your Majesty would be embarrassed to mention their achievements.

But the young prince Ji Wang is different. He has no shame at all, and will never let go of any grievance. He will never confront you head-on.

He likes to plot and scheme, and stab people in the back, which can cause people to lose everything at the very least, and even destroy their families at the worst.

The Zhaoguo Mansion of Zhangsun Wuji had finally made money in the past two years and was just beginning to gain strength.

Just because he offended Prince Ji, he lost his family fortune. If the Queen hadn't mediated, he would probably have had to sell all his property.

The second son, Changsun Huan, was charged with treason and was almost beheaded.

Cheng Yaojin often said, "Don't play with children in the future because they are too insidious."

"Your Highness the Queen, Your Highness the Imperial Concubine, today the Prince of Jin and the Prince of Ji are crowned, so congratulations."

The first person to speak was Cheng Yaojin's wife, Cui.

Cui was born into a prominent family, the Qinghe Cui family.

Not only does she have a prominent family background, but she has also been well-read since childhood and has outstanding talent.

His words were flawless, and Empress Changsun and Concubine Wei both congratulated him.

Only those newly promoted ladies of the third rank would not pay attention to Concubine Wei.

"Your Highness is right. His Royal Highness Prince Jin is extremely talented, and His Royal Highness Prince Ji is also young and promising. They will both be pillars of the Tang Dynasty in the future."

"Yes, the Imperial Concubine has taught His Royal Highness Prince Ji so well, and we should follow suit."

It's not that socializing only happens in the man's world; women are the same too. They are also doing their best for their husband's future.

Only a few princesses did not speak, including Princess Hejian, Princess Jiangxia, Princess Wei, and so on.

"Your Majesty has arrived~~~~~"

With a long groan, everyone stood up.

Li Shimin took the lead and walked into Chengqing Hall.

"See His Majesty the Emperor."

"Haha, no need to be polite. Today is a festive day, no need to be restrained."

Li Shimin laughed twice, then walked into the hall and sat next to Empress Changsun.

"Hey? Fourth brother, why are you here?"

When Li Shen and Li Zhi entered the courtyard, they saw Li Tai's fat body standing in front of the door and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What else can I do? Aye asked me to welcome guests here.

You two are really favored. My coming-of-age ceremony was held in the Prince of Wei’s palace, but you two will have your coming-of-age ceremony in the palace.

You two really worked hard and made me, your fourth brother, the welcoming guest. "

Li Tai said unhappily, feeling somewhat jealous.

"Haha, I'll have to trouble you, Fourth Brother. If you need anything in the future, I will do my best to help you.

Besides, you should also exercise, look at your body shape, you will get sick in the future."

Li Shen laughed out loud after hearing this. Li Shimin assigned the third step of the eight steps of the coming-of-age ceremony, welcoming the guests, to the fat man Li Tai.

(From now on, just use "ge" instead of "xiong". As you all know, people in the Tang Dynasty just called each other "xiong".

Otherwise, the fourth and ninth brothers will not feel smooth. Brother Dad.)
