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

Familiar with the route, Li Shen followed the eunuch leading the way and soon arrived at the Lizheng Hall.

After being informed and getting permission, Li Shen walked in with a swagger.

When he arrived at the main hall, Li Shen saw Empress Changsun doing needlework, accompanied by two young girls, Sizi and Hengshan.

"I have seen my mother. I have not seen her for a long time and I miss her very much.

The mother is healthy and the child is happy. "

Li Shen stepped forward and saluted.

"Meet the tenth brother."

Sizi and Hengshan also stood up and saluted Li Shen.

"Haha, Shen'er is here. It's been a while since you came. Mother misses you so much."

Empress Changsun put down her needlework and walked in front of Li Shen, looking him up and down.

"Thank you for your concern, mother. I haven't come to pay my respects to you for a long time. I am unfilial. I hope you won't blame me."

Li Shen became very well-behaved.

"How can I blame you? I know you are very busy. You will have your coming-of-age ceremony soon and you will have many things to worry about.

You have lost weight and you are not in good spirits. Don't overwork yourself. Just let the people below do the work."

Empress Changsun pulled Li Shen to sit down, showing great affection for him.

"Alas~~~Mother may not know that while I am under house arrest, I have to take care of the coming-of-age ceremony and write a thousand-word memorial.

Mother, look, my hands are swollen. There are several large baskets of paper for copying, and several pens are broken.

Aye said that no corrections are allowed and the writing must be done neatly.

If it weren't for this, how could I not have time to visit my mother in the palace?"

Li Shen looked so pitiful, his eyes were full of grievance, tears were in his eyes, but he didn't let them out, which made people feel very distressed.

"You kid, who told you to write a poem to reflect your father?

You've suffered losses every time over the years, but you still haven't learned your lesson.

If you have to confront me head on, you should be more careful and avoid it if you can. You will also suffer less punishment."

Empress Changsun looked at Li Shen's hand lovingly and taught Li Shen.

She also didn't understand why these two father and mother would fight each other whenever they got together, and never got tired of it. Were they born to be incompatible?

You said if you can't play together, then don't play together, but these two people still don't want to, they have to get together.

They got together and started fighting, and then Li Shimin was angered to death, and Li Shen was punished.

Li Shen is the same. After the wound has healed, he has forgotten the pain and loves to provoke his father.

"Mother, I am innocent. I wrote a beautiful poem and presented it to you for your appreciation.

I didn't know I would be punished by Aye."

At this point, Li Shen paused, looked around, and then said to Empress Changsun:

"Mother, do you think that Aye is jealous of my talent, so he is angry and wants to punish me."

“.......” Empress Changsun looked at Li Shen speechlessly.

Is this kid crazy?

"Pfft~~"

Sizi and Hengshan couldn't help but almost laughed out loud. Their brother was too bold.

He actually dared to say that Aye was jealous of his talent and deliberately persecuted him.

Looking at Li Shen's serious expression of jealousy for his talent, Empress Changsun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

I thought to myself, Your Majesty is right, this child really cannot go on without a beating for a long time.

It’s been a while since I got beaten and I’m itching again.

"Shen'er, stop talking nonsense. How could your father be jealous..."

"Asshole, would I be jealous of you?"

Before Empress Changsun could finish her words, Li Shimin walked in, accompanied by Li Shen's biological mother, Concubine Wei.

It’s just that at this moment, Concubine Wei looked helpless and almost rolled her eyes.

What kind of thing did I give birth to? Who does he resemble in this naughty personality?

I have taught him so many times to be careful with his words, but he has not listened at all and dares to speak without restraint here.

"See Your Majesty."

"I've seen Aye."

Everyone saluted, and Li Shen quickly stood up and gave up his seat.

Empress Changsun also stood up and saluted.

Li Shimin snorted as he passed by Li Shen, then sat down.

"Guanyin maid, please take a seat, all the noble concubines. There is no outsider here except him."

Li Shimin glared at Li Shen and said.

Li Shen rolled his eyes after hearing this, of course he did it behind his father's back, thinking, I have become an outsider.

Sizi and Hengshan laughed secretly when they heard what Li Shimin said.

You are old, so I won’t bother with you. Li Shen found a way out for himself and sat down on the chair next to him.

"Stand there. Did I ask you to sit down?"

As soon as his butt touched the chair, Li Shimin scolded him.

"Hehe, Erlang, don't be angry. Shen'er came here specially to pay his respects to you, Erlang."

When Empress Changsun advised her, she knew this would be the result.

"Greetings? Guanyin, he is not here to pay respects. He came to the palace for something."

Li Shimin looked at Li Shen with disdain.

"Father, I came all the way here to pay my respects to my mother. If you say that, it will ruin my filial piety."

Li Shen immediately retorted.

"A heart full of filial piety." Li Shimin was angry. This rebellious son came to the palace without saying that he wanted to see him, but came directly to the Lizheng Hall.

The report was also made by Lizheng Hall. He learned from Liangyi Hall that Li Shen wanted to see him about something.

But he didn't expect that Li Shen didn't look for him at all. When he arrived at Lizheng Hall, he happened to hear Li Shen saying bad things about him.

This made Li Shimin even angrier.

"Okay, Erlang, I believe Shen'er has come here specially to pay his respects.

Shen'er has something to talk to you, Erlang? Why don't you go to the study and talk.

Shen'er, let's have dinner here today.

I will go and make arrangements with the Concubine."

Empress Changsun, who was standing by, saw that the father and son were about to argue again and hurried to smooth things over.

Empress Changsun's words were still very effective. Li Shimin just snorted, then stood up and walked towards the study.

Empress Changsun nodded at Li Shen, and Li Shen immediately followed her happily.

There's nothing I can do about it. It's my fault that I need help from others today.

Entering the study, Li Shimin sat in front of the tea table. Li Shen hurriedly and attentively sat behind the tea table. The maid handed him a kettle, and Li Shen put it on the charcoal stove.

"Tell me, why are you not at home preparing for the ceremony of coming of age? What are you doing in the palace?"

Li Shimin picked up a small iron stick and poked the charcoal fire in the charcoal stove and asked.

"that......"

Li Shen really didn't know how to start talking, or how to start talking without getting beaten up.

From Li Chengqian's reaction, we can tell that if he opened his mouth and asked for permission to allow the Hu army to enter the pass, he would definitely be beaten.

How should he say it? Li Shen racked his brains to come up with something that made sense.

"What? You can't speak? Weren't you able to speak very well in front of Gao Ming just now?"

Li Shimin looked up at Li Shen who was thinking.

"Ah?" Li Shen was stunned. Did his father know that he had just gone to Liangyi Palace?

And from the sound of it, my father had heard my nonsense in the temple.

Isn’t that the end? If the first impression of the negotiation is not good, how can we continue the negotiation?
