I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Things reversed so quickly that no one present could react. When they did, everyone was stunned.

What's going on? Just now, the father and son were at war with each other. Why did the scene suddenly change and His Majesty compromised?

Queen Changsun and Concubine Wei looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces.

They were originally worried that Li Shen would offend Long Yan, and with Li Shimin's temper, he would be beaten even if he was not punished.

But little did he know that this son said the strongest words but did the weakest things.

If you had just said you would get paid, why bother putting on such a show?

Li Shen actually wanted to save a little bit. If his face was good, he wouldn't have to spend money.

But his father didn't give him this face at all, which made Li Shen very angry.

Do you think it’s easy to make some money from your hard work? Either being beaten, or on the way to being beaten.

What he earns now is all the hard-earned money earned by others, while all he earns is money earned by selling his body and soul.

I really traveled through the Tang Dynasty and sold my body and soul.

"Wang De, why are you still standing there? Give His Highness Prince Ji a seat and someone will serve you the wine." Li Shimin was in a good mood.

The Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, the eastern capital, really needs to be renovated and rebuilt.

It's just that repairing it once is expensive, so he has been struggling with it.

In the past two years, he has carried out extensive construction projects, including Cuiwei Palace and Yuhua Palace. Many ministers have begun to give advice.

Now that King Yuki is investing, I believe those ministers will have no excuse to stop it no matter how unwilling they are.

"Oh, yes, yes." Wang De recovered, looked at Li Shen with disdain, and then ordered people to bring tables and chairs.

Wang De thought he was going to see some good show, but he didn't expect it to be this in the end.

King Ji is indeed far-fetched.

"Thank you Aye." Li Shen saluted and sat down. He was a shareholder now, so of course he couldn't be polite.

So Wang De was asked to prepare some food and wine. Li Shen ate so much that he had to get his money back.

"Li Shen, since Meng Jiang has given birth successfully, you should not stay in Chang'an for a long time. The Qinghai capital cannot be leaderless.

Qingque and Pheasant Slave are inexperienced and may not be able to manage them well. "

After Li Shen sat down, Li Shimin got back to business.

Li Shen was chewing a piece of meat, his face was full of grease, and he looked up at Li Shimin.

"Aye, don't worry. Fourth brother and ninth brother are inexperienced, so they were not put in charge of management when he left.

As long as the two brothers don't cause trouble there. "

"..." Li Shimin was speechless. He sent two people there to assist Li Shen and learn some experience from Li Shen.

Now according to Li Shen's words, they were not given any rights at all, nor were they responsible for anything.

Then why do you let them do it? Sightseeing?

"Then when do you plan to go back?" Li Shimin asked seriously with a stunned look on his face.

"I'll leave in a few days." Seeing that Li Shimin was unhappy, Li Shen said quickly.

~~~No water~~~~

While Li Shen was feasting and drinking in the palace, thousands of miles away in the important town of Qinghai,

In the courtyard allocated to Wei King Li Tai alone, several people were gathering.

In addition to Li Tai and Li Zhi, there were three middle-aged men who looked like businessmen.

"Your Highness King Wei, if this matter can be successful, we will naturally not lose the share of the two princes.

I hope the two princes can find a way to be accommodating. "

The speaker was Cui Renli, the person in charge sent by the Cui family to the important town of Qinghai.

Li Tai did not speak but thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Your family thinks of things too simply. Prince Jin and I are only here to assist in political affairs. We cannot interfere in all matters in the outer city.

King Ji said before leaving that he had made all arrangements.

So it's difficult for us to help you with this matter. "

These three people just came to visit him on behalf of the family. It was nothing at first, but then Cui Renli made a request.

I hope Li Tai and Li Zhi can help and issue them vouchers so that their goods can pass customs.

And promised to give them benefits when things are done.

Of course Li Tai is not a fool. Let's not talk about whether he has this right. Even if he does, he has to consider whether it will do any harm to him.

This is Li Shen's territory, and their every move is likely to be controlled by Li Shen.

Moreover, Li Tai was also disdainful. People from these aristocratic families were too arrogant. Haven't they been smoothed down by Lao Shi over the years?

Since you want to cooperate with yourself, even if you don't tell the truth, you must at least know what they are shipping out.

"His Royal Highness King Wei, now that King Ji is not in the capital, as princes, it is not up to you to have the final say.

Could it be that these people could not obey the orders of the two princes? "

Another person interjected, this person is the representative of the Wang family, his name is Wang Qing, and he is also the head of the Wang family in the important town of Qinghai.

Li Tai glanced at him, his words were obviously trying to sow discord.

"Haha, what Manager Wang said is not right. Before coming here, His Majesty had decreed that all affairs here should be subject to the arrangements of His Highness Prince Ji.

The two of us are here just to assist King Ji, and now King Ji has made arrangements.

If King Jin and I interfere randomly, won't we be forced to resist the decree?

After King Ji comes back, he will definitely report it to the court to impeach us for disobeying the decree.

Neither of us can afford such a serious crime, so you should find another way to deal with it. "

Li Tai chuckled and was not moved at all.

The three of them looked at each other, and then Cui Renli said:

"His Royal Highness King Wei, we gentlemen do not speak secretly. We are here today to represent the five surnames. We all know that you two have a problem with King Ji.

We also have issues with him, so why not do it if we can cause him some trouble in the city?

After all, we have a common enemy, and you don’t want to see King Ji’s family dominate in the future, right? "

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and they came to Li Tai because they both had issues with Li Shen.

Li Zhi looked on with cold eyes. He did not express his opinion. Li Tai was here and there was no need for him to speak.

But he was also thinking about something.

"You are wrong. Our dispute with Lao Shi is also a matter between our brothers. You are outsiders after all.

Moreover, if I guess correctly, you can only represent the four families of Cui, Wang, Lu, and Zheng.

I'm afraid the Li family of Longxi and the Li family of Zhaojun are not among you, right? "

Li Tai said disdainfully, the Five Surnames and Qiwang are no longer a group.

This is also due to the great King Ji, who caused losses of varying scales to the five surnames through his constant deception.

This also caused estrangement to slowly appear among the seven families. The Longxi Li family and the Zhaojun Li family were regarded as royal families, so in recent years they had withdrawn from the family's actions against Prince Ji's Mansion.

This also allowed them to retain their strength, but the long-term non-cooperation also caused a gap between them and the other five companies.

"Yes, there is indeed no Li family, but our five families are enough. If we have fewer people, we will have more wealth, right?

I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Jin’s palace was deceived by Prince Ji, and his entire family was deceived. Doesn’t Prince Jin want to gather some wealth again? "

(It turns out that the ancestors of Cui family in Qinghe and Cui family in Boling are descendants of Jiang Shang)
