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

The weather is getting colder in mid-October, but it cannot stop the lively scene in Chang'an City, especially the recent scene of Prince Ji's palace transporting things by carriage, which is impressive.

There were cart after cart of wooden boxes and I didn’t know what was in them. Anyway, they were from Prince Ji’s Mansion to the entrance of the palace.

Thousands of feathered forest guards were guarding the palace gate. The palace gate was wide open, and eunuchs kept coming out to pick up and deliver carriages.

It has been a day and a half, and it still hasn't stopped. What makes the people of Chang'an find it interesting is that Prince Ji's Mansion is transporting things to the palace.

The noble family's transportation to Prince Ji's Mansion did not stop for a day and a half.

The unexpected surprise was that the sales of Li Shen's carriage workshop increased sharply, and many businessmen saw the carrying capacity of the four-wheeled carriage.

Although the price is much more expensive than a two-wheeled carriage, you can make it back by traveling a few more times.

So everyone began to buy four-wheeled carriages one after another. Two-wheeled carriages were on the verge of being eliminated, and the workshop with the best sales of two-wheeled carriages in Chang'an City was the carriage shop of Duke Zhao's Mansion.

Li Shen didn't care about these. The weather was cold and Li Shen was too lazy to go out, but he still had to listen to the current affairs and politics that happened once every ten days.

Especially he didn't want to face the resentful eyes of Chang Shi Wang Xuance.

In Li Shen's sunroom, Li Shen basked in the sun and fell asleep listening to Wang Xuance's report.

They were all trivial things to him, and they didn't interest him at all.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Hmm? Yeah~ Yeah~ Very good, very good."

Wang Xuance was helpless. He was a long history official. Although he was appointed by King Ji, he was still nominally His Majesty's servant.

Responsible for correcting the prince's morality and handling the political affairs of Prince Ji's palace. One of the tasks is to let Prince Ji understand the government affairs.

This is already very easy, because Li Shen did not have a feudal state. If he had a prince's kingdom, it would be even more tiring to be a governor and govern more than ten or twenty states.

"Xuan Ce, if there is anything you haven't said yet, please tell me quickly. I have been busy with government affairs in recent days and have been a little overworked. I want to take a rest."

"?..." Wang Xuance was speechless and could only continue reading with his notebook.

"On Dingyou Day (the 14th), His Majesty decreed that Prince Li Ming be granted the title of King Cao, with a real title of 800 households and 10,000 acres of fertile land..."

"Wait! Li Ming? Fourteenth brother?" Li Shen asked uncertainly.

"That's right, Your Majesty." Wang Xuance nodded.

After receiving the confirmation, Li Shen nodded, but felt a little sad, so he sealed 800 households and 10,000 acres of fertile land.

This is much better than before. Isn't it because Li Shimin likes Li Ming's mother?

Li Ming's biological mother is Princess Chaola Yang, who can also be called Princess Qi. She is Li Shen's fourth aunt and the princess of Qi King Li Yuanji.

After Li Yuanji was killed, the female family members entered Yeting. They were very beautiful and Li Shimin liked her very much, especially as his sister-in-law.

That's why there was Li Ming, Li Shimin's youngest son. However, Li Shen felt unhappy:

What's so great about it? Your mother was married for the second time, and my mother was also married for the second time. Your ex-father was killed, and my ex-father was also killed. What can you do to be so arrogant?

"You continue." After Li Shen cursed a lot, he motioned to Wang Xuance to continue the report.

"There is an official in Qizhou named Duan Zhichong. He wrote to the three provinces to discuss matters, requesting your Majesty to return the government affairs to the prince."

"He's crazy!" Li Shen sat up straight.

"I don't know this either, but this is indeed an unwise move. I don't know what this person's intentions are." Wang Xuance also shook his head.

"Send someone to check this Duan Zhichong immediately. Whether he is crazy or not is secondary. I'm afraid the prince will go crazy after listening to his words." Li Shen immediately felt that something was wrong.

"What the prince said is absolutely true. In the past few days, I heard that the prince had a worried look on his face after hearing these words. It can be seen that he is a little worried.

I'm afraid someone arranged this specially. "

"I think so too, how does the court deal with this?"

"Zhao Guogong and other important ministers in the three provinces were the first to propose the execution of Duan Zhichong, and other officials also followed suit.

However, His Majesty has not made up his mind yet. His Majesty has written an edict in his handwriting: The five mountains surpass the sky and the Han Dynasty, and the four seas extend across the earth, harboring dirt and evil, without harming the height of the mountains and the depth of the water.

Duan Zhichong, a common man, wants to use his letter to bring me into contact with the throne. If I am really guilty, it means that he is an upright man. If I am not guilty, it means that he is arrogant.

His Majesty did not say much about the specific final disposition. "Wang Xuance repeated Li Shimin's words.

Li Shen vaguely felt that something was not simple here. Just like what his father said, a nobody wanted to make the emperor abdicate with a memorial? This is too arrogant.

"I think this matter is not simple. There must be someone behind it. This trick is very subtle. First, it can make people think that the prince may not be able to wait any longer, which will make his majesty have a grudge.

Second, His Majesty was originally planning to hand over the government affairs to the Crown Prince in the next few days, but with this petition, His Majesty will not hand over the government affairs to the Crown Prince in the short term.

Otherwise, people will think that Duan Zhichong's petition has worked, making the outside world think that His Majesty will give way only when he is at fault.

Killing two birds with one stone, what a clever trick.

No matter what the means, I want to know what Duan Zhichong was punished for and whether there is anyone behind him. "

Li Shen didn't understand why someone still wanted to make trouble with the prince at this time.

Either there is some rebellious organization that wants to cause civil strife in the imperial court, or there is someone who still wants that position.

But now, why is there anyone still thinking about that position?

"Prince Qi, someone from the Wei family is here."

While Li Shen was thinking, Shitou walked in and reported.

"Is there someone from the Wei family? Take him to the front hall to wait. I will be here later." After ordering Shi Shi, he said to Wang Xuance:

"Okay, that's it for today. Xuance will pick some interesting things to talk about in the future."

After speaking, Li Shen took his maid back to change clothes.

When Li Shen came to the front hall, he saw several people, including his uncle Wei Siqi, Wei Siyan, Wei Renji from Xiaoyao Gongfang, and Wei Ting's son Wei Bai.

"See His Highness Prince Ji." Everyone saluted Li Shen.

"I've met two uncles. Let's sit down and talk. Someone will serve tea." Li Shen came to the front seat and sat down. Then he looked at Wei Siyan, his uncle, and asked:

"I wonder what matters my uncle has come here for today?"

"Back to the prince, the main reason for coming here this time is that there is something in the clan that wants to trouble the prince. It's up to you, uncle, to do the talking."

After Wei Siyan finished speaking, he glanced at Wei Renji.

Wei Renji stood up and looked very respectful, no longer as arrogant as before.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ji, I am here to ask Prince Ji to help recommend a person named Wei Siqian, who is a junior of my Xiaoyao Gongfang.

The current magistrate of Yingcheng County, but this year's performance evaluation was at the bottom. I would like to ask His Majesty King Ji to recommend him in front of His Majesty. "

"You still let me recommend you after the assessment? Do you think I am an idiot?"

(In the past two days, I was looking for materials,

If that doesn't work, I'll write about Li Shen flying to heaven. )
