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

At this moment, everyone in the Liangyi Hall fell into deep thought after hearing Li Shen’s words. They were not mediocre people.

Although Li Shen said that he wrote the plan to know how much money he had to squander.

But it makes sense to think from the court's perspective.

If a county plans well, the imperial court will know how much money and grain to allocate to the county next year.

Repair bridges and roads, build canals to irrigate farmland, build granaries to store food, encourage people to cultivate more fields, reclaim wasteland, and build colleges.

These are all things a county should consider.

The Tang Dynasty was a vast country with two thousand prefectures and counties. The prime ministers, who were high up in the sky, could only get a rough idea of ​​the situation based on reports from their subordinates.

Only local officials know the specific affairs of each region, so whether the place can be well managed and whether the people can be prosperous all depends on the actions of local officials.

If all decisions were made by people at the central level, they wouldn't be able to make decisions and the details wouldn't be that specific.

Therefore, letting the people below write plans is also a disguised way of letting the officials below think about problems proactively.

"Your Highness Prince Ji is indeed a man of great talent. I admire him." Ma Zhou said with a salute.

"Yes, His Royal Highness Prince Ji is truly talented and resourceful." Yu Zhining also echoed.

Only Changsun Wuji didn't speak.

He had to admit that this young prince did have some talent.

"Hahahaha, no, no, you're so nice." Li Shen laughed loudly, looking very proud.

Li Chengqian saw Li Shen's boastful look and said:

"Prince Ji, didn't you say you had something else to do?"

The timing was just right. After a while, the younger brother became too proud of himself and didn't know what to say.

Every time his younger brother gets carried away by his success, he never stops saying something shocking.

"Emma, ​​yes, I have things to do. I can't waste my time here with you guys."

Li Shen suddenly realized that he came here to ask for permission, so why was he chatting with them here? It was all Li Chengqian's fault for not letting him leave.

They also learned from their father how to threaten themselves.

When I get the chance, I will definitely take revenge.

Li Shen hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian and was about to leave, but after taking two steps Li Shen stopped again.

"By the way, let me tell you a few words. Liu Bang and Yang Jian have been widely praised. Your Majesty is kind and benevolent. Talented people emerge in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for hundreds of years.

gone. "

After Li Shen finished speaking, he turned and walked out of the hall, heading towards the harem.

"There are talented people from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years."

When Li Shimin and Wang De heard the noise of Li Shen coming out, they quickly hid behind the pillars.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ji is indeed talented. This poem says that Your Majesty is more benevolent than Emperor Gaozu of Han and Emperor Yang of Sui. The ministers should keep it in mind."

Wang De on the side smiled and whispered flattery.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Shen who was walking away, and felt a little happy. Some people have always believed that his position was not obtained in a legitimate way.

After all, he obtained it by killing his brother and forcing his father to give up the throne to him.

Although he has worked very hard over the years, the Tang Dynasty has enjoyed peace and prosperity under his management.

But it's not justified after all.

Now his own son actually praised him for his kindness, and it was a poem. Although the artistic conception of this poem was average, Li Shen's status in the literary world would also be included in the collection of poems.

When the time comes, his reputation will be passed down through the ages, and when people in the future comment on him, they will also say that Li Shimin was a benevolent emperor.

"Let's go back to the Dragon Palace and wait for this rebellious son."

"Your Majesty, why don't you go to Lizheng Palace? I guess that His Royal Highness Prince Ji will definitely go to pay his respects to the Queen.

It has been a long time since His Royal Highness Prince Ji has come to the palace to pay respects to the Empress and the Imperial Concubine."

Wang De said with a smile on his face.

The main reason is that Wang De knew that if Li Shen went to Lizheng Hall or Daji Hall, it was uncertain when he would come out.

Your Majesty will have to wait for a long time in Shenlong by then.

"Well, let's go to Lizheng Palace. Send someone to notify the imperial concubine and go to Lizheng Palace together. We will have lunch in Lizheng Palace."

Li Shimin thought about it, nodded in agreement, then turned and left.

The people in Liangyi Hall didn't know that Li Shimin was eavesdropping outside, and they were also attracted by Li Shen's last few lines of poetry.

Although it is not very neat and the artistic conception is not that high, the meaning is very clear.

It was obvious that it was something His Royal Highness Prince Ji had just improvised.

"Prince Ji is indeed talented.

Each of them has been the leader for hundreds of years, and who wouldn’t want to be recorded in the history books?”

Ma Zhou praised him, but he deliberately didn't say anything strong.

"Yes, we are all old. There are many talented people in the Tang Dynasty now, and soon someone will catch up with us.

It is definitely impossible to be the only one who can lead the world. If I can be like Duke Wei, I will die without regrets."

Yu Zhining also sighed.

Now is a prosperous era, and in this prosperous era, talents are springing up like mushrooms after rain, and a large number of talents have emerged.

In recent years, a large number of talented people have been selected through the imperial examination.

Some people who cannot become officials can start as minor clerks or county magistrates.

Many of them are very talented and have ideas. After gaining experience in the future, they will have the opportunity to soar to success.

"Haha, Ma Gong and Yu Gong are too kind.

Tenth brother, I was just speaking casually, there is no deep meaning behind it.

Let’s discuss this annual plan.”

Li Chengqian sat there and laughed, speaking modestly.

This little brother is really interesting. Why does he always leave a few words before leaving and then walk away with his butt twisted?

Does he think this is the character of a scholar?

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Ma Zhou and Yu Zhining regained their composure.

"Yes, Your Highness, I think this annual plan..."

The two began to discuss with Li Chengqian.

Only Changsun Wuji on the side said nothing. He just took a deep look at Li Shen's back as he walked out.

I have never encountered a different taste.

Others also understood the meaning of Li Shen's poem, but they didn't say it out loud. However, since he was a meritorious person, he couldn't help but think about it.

Prince Ji specifically visited Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, and Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian.

These two people have killed many meritorious officials. I use them as a comparison to tell you to keep His Majesty's mercy in your heart.

Changsun Wuji felt that Li Shen was talking about him.

The following words become even clearer. There are many talented people in the country, each of whom has been leading the way for hundreds of years, and now it is the turn of other talented people.

What does King Ji mean?

Li Shen came to the gate of the harem and sent someone to report.

Entering the harem was still as cumbersome as before. First, one had to inform the Queen, and after the Queen agreed, report it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Wait until the Ministry of Internal Affairs sends someone to register who you are looking for and what you are doing. When you enter the palace, send a few eunuchs to follow you.

Only after everything was done did Li Shen enter his former home.

There was not much change in the palace, except that the trees had lost their green color, but the buildings remained the same.

This made Li Shen feel a little emotional. His father was really stingy and didn't even bother to repair the house even though he had money.
