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

Li Shen took his father to run around the fish pond several times and played a game of Ji Wang circling the fish.

Wang De brought a group of people to watch the fun, except for one person who had a handful of melon seeds in his hand.

If Your Majesty had not asked them to intercept Prince Ji, they would not have been the first to do so.

Don’t you see how happy the father and son are having?

"Aye, Aye, it's easy to talk, my son is injured."

Seeing that his father didn't chase him, Li Shen took the opportunity to rest, breathing heavily.

To be honest, he really couldn't run anymore, otherwise how could he have been caught up? His legs felt like they were filled with lead.

Li Shimin was also panting and sweating for the first time in winter.

"Stop, you rebel, I promise I won't beat you to death.

Are you still injured? Are you running so far with an injury? You are pretending well.

You will be severely punished today for the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Li Shimin pointed a knife at Li Shen, and his momentum seemed as if he could chop Li Shen off his horse immediately.

Li Shen didn't dare to stop after seeing this. What if Li Shimin really chopped him off by mistake?

Even if he wasn't killed, it wouldn't be worth it if he was injured.

"Aye, you're holding a knife like this, I'm scared, how dare I stand still, why don't you put the knife down first?"

Li Shen pointed at the knife in Li Shimin's hand.

Li Shimin glanced at the knife in his hand, then changed hands.

"Okay, I'll put down the knife, and you stand still. You can't escape the punishment you're receiving today. If you run away again, you'll be adding insult to injury."

Li Shimin used a delaying tactic.

Li Shen immediately shook his head when he heard this. He was not stupid.

"I don't want it, Aye, my son is really injured, please let me go.

Or I can pay 10,000 strings of cash to atone for my sins."

"Ten thousand strings of cash? You're dreaming!" Li Shimin felt insulted and immediately started chasing again.

Li Shen had no choice but to continue running around the fish pond.

He began to wonder why his mother hadn't come out to rescue him after being here for so long.

"Aye, twenty thousand strings of cash... thirty thousand strings of cash... forty thousand strings of cash, exempting forty lashes, this is the highest price in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shen started to raise the price while running. For Li Shen, it was worth it to pay a few tens of thousands of strings of cash in order to avoid a beating.

However, Li Shimin behind him remained unmoved and continued to pursue him relentlessly.

It was not until the two of them could no longer run that they stopped and gasped for breath.

"Erlang, what happened between you and Shen'er?"

Just as the father and son were staring at each other, a voice came from the steps of the hall.

Li Shen and Li Shimin looked over at the same time.

"Guanyin Bi? Why are you here?"

"Mother!!"

The father and son make different sounds, representing different inner emotions.

Li Shimin was full of confusion and surprise. He had never expected that Empress Changsun would be in Daji Hall.

Yesterday, Empress Changsun returned to the palace and took some medicine, and now she is fine. She just needs to rest.

Li Shen's cry was full of joy from the bottom of his heart. It was truly a pleasant surprise. His amulet was here, and he really thanked God for his blessing.

Empress Changsun came over, accompanied by four concubines including Concubine Wei and Concubine Yan De.

When they came to Li Shimin, they all saluted:

"Your Majesty~~"

"Well, no need to be so polite." Li Shimin nodded. They were all his wives.

"Guanyin, why are you in Daji Palace? Shouldn't you be resting? You fainted yesterday and can't move."

Li Shimin blamed Empress Changsun.

"Erlang, I am fine now. Divine Doctor Sun said I should rest, but he didn't say I can't go out. I will take the medicine on time."

Empress Changsun replied with a smile.

Li Shimin looked at his first wife, then at the four concubines. Today, everyone was present.

"Are you...talking about something?" Li Shimin asked uncertainly.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has summoned us to discuss Yuan Zheng's matter."

Concubine Yan De bowed and replied.

"Discuss the matters concerning Yuan Zheng?" Li Shimin was puzzled. Isn't Yuan Zheng the same every year?

"That's right, Erlang. I want to make the New Year's Eve celebration more lively this year and invite all the concubines in the palace to participate.

And the servants can also participate, so that Your Majesty and the people can have fun together.

This year, I plan to reward all the servants in the palace.

Make everyone happy.”

Empress Changsun expressed her thoughts, and it was the first time that Li Shimin heard them.

However, the queen was the master of the harem, and she had the final say on these matters, so Li Shimin didn't care.

He just nodded and said:

"Well, all matters concerning the harem will be decided by you, Guanyin. You guys continue to discuss, and I will deal with this rebellious son first."

Li Shen, who was just a bystander, heard this and shouted:

"Mother, save me, Aye wants to kill me."

With one quick step he came behind Empress Changsun.

"What?" Li Shen's scream startled Empress Changsun, and she then saw the long knife in Li Shimin's hand.

He immediately stood in front of Li Shen and looked at Li Shimin:

"Erlang, why are you doing this? Shen'er may be naughty, but his crime does not deserve the death penalty."

"That's right, that's right." Li Shen kept nodding his head from behind, making Li Shimin so angry that he really wanted to chop him down.

But he was worried about hurting Empress Changsun and others, so he could only stare with wide eyes and yell:

"Get over here, you bastard."

"Erlang, let's talk nicely if we have something to say." Empress Changsun advised.

"Guanyin, you don't know. This rebellious child just...just pretended to be sick and deceived me. Do you think he should be punished?"

Li Shimin told Empress Changsun about Li Shen's evil deeds.

However, Empress Changsun did not mind and just said softly:

"Erlang, even if you are teaching me a lesson, you shouldn't draw your sword. What if you accidentally hurt Shen'er?"

"Mother~~~"

Li Shen was so moved by these words that he wanted to sing a song on the spot: "There is only one good mother in the world."

Aunt is much better than my biological mother.

After hearing what Empress Changsun said, Li Shimin looked down at the knife in his hand and felt that something was indeed wrong.

At this time, Wang De saw the opportunity and immediately stepped forward, holding up the scabbard, and bowed in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin took a look, then snorted and put the knife back into the sheath. Wang De retreated holding the knife.

"Your Majesty, it's cold outside, why don't you go to the study?" Concubine Wei said at this time.

"Well, then let's go to the study as my beloved concubine said." Li Shimin nodded, then glanced at Li Shen who was hiding behind Empress Changsun, snorted coldly, and walked towards the study.

Li Shen stretched his neck and felt relieved only when he saw his father walking away.

"You! I made you angry again." Empress Changsun tapped Li Shen's head with her hand, scolded him lovingly, and then took Li Shen in.

"Huh? No! Mother, I was wronged." Li Shen kept playing the victim.

It has to be said that the renovation of Daji Hall by Li Shen was really excellent, even the hall was very warm.

This is even more so when you come to the study, where there are many potted plants, full of greenery.

(I read the comments today. Thank you for your concern. I really can’t stay up late.

There are too many things to do at the end of the year, so the update will be very late. It will be done after the New Year.

I hope all my friends don’t stay up late, it’s not good for your phone.

I wish you all good health.)
