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

Li Shen was too famous. Although these people were royal relatives, they were far from Li Shen.

One reason is that Li Shen is a prince and also the Shaoqing of the Zongzheng Temple.

The Zongzheng Temple is specifically responsible for managing the royal family. If we are not careful and are caught by Prince Ji and abuses his power for personal gain, no one knows what will happen.

The second is that Li Shen has a terrible reputation in Chang'an City and everyone is afraid of him. Words like insidious, cunning, and full of tricks can be used to describe Li Shen.

He is the type of person who is afraid of ghosts.

Furthermore, there is a rumor among the clan members that the reason Princess Yongjia is now keeping vigil for the late emperor at Xianling Mausoleum is not because she dreamed of the late emperor missing his daughter as Your Majesty said.

In fact, there is another hidden story behind it. The specific reason is unknown, but it is rumored to be related to Prince Ji.

These royal relatives and nobles definitely know a little more than the common people and even the officials below.

Some people heard that Prince Ji knew what mistake Princess Yongjia had made, so he gave her severe punishment, which might be related to her private life.

Some people knew that Princess Yongjia was having an affair with someone outside, but later it was discovered that all the talented writers had disappeared overnight.

Everyone began to speculate that she might have been killed by Prince Ji, and was killed in front of Princess Yongjia. Otherwise, why would Princess Yongjia be in a bad mental state now?

As time goes by, many secrets are no longer secrets. When Li Shen did this, he did not kill everyone.

So it’s not surprising that some news came out.

It had no impact on Li Shen, but for the royal family, they were afraid of it like a tiger.

It turns out that King Ji really dared to kill people.

"See His Highness Prince Ji."

As soon as Li Shen got off the carriage, several people present saluted him.

Li Shen didn't even look at them. Those who saluted him must be his in-laws, and he didn't know most of them.

It doesn't matter even if we know each other.

People like princesses and princes would never salute me. The daughter of the late emperor is my aunt, so she doesn't need to salute me even more.

Li Shen pretended not to hear anything and helped Lu Dingniang get out of the car. Then he held the fourth child Li Wei in one hand and the third girl Li Yinyu in the other.

Turning around and seeing that the person who was saluting had not yet stood up, he said calmly:

"No gifts."

After saying this, he walked into the imperial city with his family, displaying his arrogance and domineering behavior to the fullest.

After the routine inspection, he entered the palace, and after checking and registering in the harem, he was led to the back garden.

There were already quite a few people here, including Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

"Prince Ji is here."

"Meet King Ji."

Along the way, many people greeted Li Shen, and Li Shen just nodded.

He came before Li Shimin and Empress Changsun and knelt down solemnly.

Also kneeling was Li Shen’s eldest son Yang Yang.

There were many rules in the Tang Dynasty, among which men had to kneel during the New Year, but women did not have to.

"I pay my respects to my mother, and wish her a long life."

"May our grandparents live long and prosper." Yangyang also repeated what his father said.

Then Li Shen and his family solemnly kowtowed to Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

"Okay, get up." Li Shimin nodded with a smile.

Empress Changsun was extremely excited.

"My son, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Mother Aye."

"Let me see my grandson." Li Shimin saw Li Wei in Lu Dingniang's arms and stretched out his hand with a smile.

Lu Dingniang quickly handed her son over.

"Oh, my dear grandson." Li Shimin couldn't let go of him after holding him in his arms.

This is his eldest grandson.

Li Shimin's action made people around him quite envious, especially Li Tai and Li Zhi, who also brought their children today.

This was what Empress Changsun requested, but Li Shimin did not show such enthusiasm.

"Erlang, the weather is cold, let the child go to Daji Hall and not stay outside."

Empress Changsun suggested.

The back garden is large and has many stoves. It’s okay for adults, but not for children.

"Well, okay, Old Ten, let them go to your mother's place. There are many families and children there."

Li Shimin handed Li Wei over to Lu Dingniang and gave her some instructions.

"Yes, Aye." Li Shen agreed, and then he asked why he didn't see his mother. It turned out that his mother had other tasks.

Li Shen gave Lu Dingniang some instructions and asked him to take his family to Daji Hall so that his mother could see her grandchildren.

I stayed to accompany my father.

"Big Brother, Fourth Brother, Ninth Brother, are you all here?"

When he came to the side, Li Shen saw the three brothers sitting together.

"How rude." Li Zhi said.

"Brother Jiu, what do you mean? I greeted you this morning and showed my respects to you." Li Shen sat down nonchalantly.

"All of you, stay quiet and don't force me to beat you in public on this auspicious day."

Just when the two were about to start arguing, Li Shimin's voice came over.

He swallowed back Li Zhi's rebuttal.

Li Shen was also confused and didn't dare to say anything more. He just kept provoking with his eyes.

Li Chengqian, who was watching from the side, felt extremely helpless. The two younger brothers were the same age, but their personalities were completely opposite.

"Okay, can't you two just argue without seeing each other?"

As the eldest brother, Li Chengqian scolded the two of them, mainly scolding Li Shen.

Although this guy didn't say anything, he kept deliberately provoking others and making faces.

"I didn't make any noise, he was the one who provoked me first." Li Shen argued.

"Look, Aunt Changguang is here." Li Chengqian quickly changed the subject, otherwise he would have to argue endlessly with this eloquent person.

Many people come to this back garden, but as long as they are human, they are divided into different levels, or it would be more appropriate to say that birds of a feather flock together.

Among Li Shen's brothers, he is the closest to Li Shimin, after all, he is his son.

Most of the daughters went to Daji Hall, the sons-in-law gathered together, and the nephews gathered together.

Another group included the eldest princesses, and Li Shimin's sisters also gathered together.

Princess Changguang was Li Shimin's fifth sister.

After Princess Changguang paid her respects to Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, she originally wanted to go aside, but she accidentally saw Li Shen coming over, so she walked over.

Everyone who saw this scene thought that Princess Changguang was going to pay her respects to Li Chengqian and was not there.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Auntie, you are too polite. I should show my respect." Li Chengqian is a lord, but he is also a junior.

Li Shen's third brother had already knelt down and performed the Yuanzheng New Year greetings.

"Greetings to my aunt, long live my aunt."

"No need to be so polite." Princess Changguang helped Li Shen up, which made Li Shen stunned. Why was she so polite?

"I would also like to thank you, Prince Ji, for your care in the hospital. Doctor Sun said that you, Prince Ji, took away a lot of precious medicinal materials.

Otherwise I might not be here anymore.”

(I forgot to mention yesterday that women don’t have to kneel down during the Chinese New Year.)
