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

"Ah~~~~" After hearing Wang De's words, Li Shen suddenly realized.

He asked why he had heard the name Duan Yan before, and it turned out that he was the son of the eldest princess, Princess Gaomi.

My own cousin.

Princess Gaomi was the fourth daughter of Li Shen's grandfather Li Yuan and the elder sister of Li Shen's father. She was married to Zhangsun Xiaozheng by Li Yuan.

Later, this eldest grandson Xiaozheng died young and married Duan Lun, the Duke of Ji.

It is said that it was Crown Prince Li Jiancheng who betrothed Princess Gaomi to Duan Lun.

However, this Duke of Ji, Duan Lun, was also a short-lived man and died in the 16th year of Zhenguan.

So Li Shen's aunt Princess Gaomi is now a widow.

Li Shen sometimes felt that his aunt was too lucky. She married two people, but neither of them lived long.

"Hey? What is Duan Yan doing here? Is he going to medical school?"

Li Shen asked when he had nothing to do.

"I heard that it seems that Lady Wen'an is ill."

What Li Shen didn't expect was that Wang De actually knew the reason.

"My cousin is sick?" Li Shen was a little surprised.

Princess Wen'an was the daughter of Li Yuanji, the Prince of the Four Books, and had been imprisoned in the Ye Ting.

It was not until the 15th year of Zhenguan that Li Shimin conferred the title of Princess Wen'an on her and allowed her to get married.

Li Shimin may have felt guilty after so many years, so he took good care of his niece and arranged her marriage in accordance with royal standards.

The reason why Li Shen remembered it so clearly was because Li Shimin asked him to attend Wen An's wedding.

Li Shen was already quite famous at that time, and Li Shimin was afraid that Wen An's husband's family would look down on her because she was a convict.

Let Li Shen go to calm down the situation and take charge.

Li Shen went there as usual and placed hundreds of boxes of gifts worth five thousand strings of cash in the yard, shocking the guests.

Prince Ji used to give gifts to the princess, and even though Wen An and he were not biological siblings, they both came.

It seems that the royal family pays close attention to Princess Wen'an.

Now Li Shen thinks it has been about seven or eight years.

But it’s no big deal if you get sick. People eat a variety of grains, so it’s inevitable that they will get sick.

Li Shen didn't care.

"Shitou, when you pass by the medical school, remind me to go to the hospital to visit cousin Wen An."

Li Shen shouted to the outside.

In fact, Li Shen is a person who attaches great importance to family ties. He had a good relationship with his cousins ​​in his previous life.

Because I was an only child in my previous life, I longed for a playmate.

When Li Shen came to the Tang Dynasty, he was very happy to have so many brothers and sisters.

It would be even better if I weren't in the royal family.

Another quarter of an hour passed before the carriage slowed down, and Stone was outside and reported:

"Your Majesty, we are almost there. There are Yulin Guards ahead."

"Stop ahead."

Li Shen ordered.

Soon the carriage stopped and Li Shen and Wang De got off.

The sun was bright and a little dazzling. Li Shen looked around and saw that there was a guard every five steps and a killer every ten steps.

Everyone can see that His Majesty is here.

"My Lord, please follow me in."

Wang De made a gesture of invitation.

"Tie Niu, take them and wait here. Don't cause any trouble."

Li Shen called Tie Niu over and gave him an order. After getting his response, Li Shen took a few servants and followed Wang De over.

"Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Ji." General Li Zhiyun of the Imperial Guards walked over.

"General Li, you have worked hard."

Li Shen nodded. Li Zhiyun was a member of the royal family and was one generation older than him, but they were not direct relatives.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, please disarm your troops."

Li Zhiyun stretched out his hand.

After Li Shen handed over the dagger, Li Zhiyun let him go.

Looking at the forest ahead, Li Shenyi frowned.

"Do you have to set up the checkpoint so far away? Is there something wrong with setting up a checkpoint one mile away?"

Li Zhiyun ignored him at all, leaving Li Shen talking in vain.

"Your Majesty, let's go. His Majesty is waiting."

Wang De advised from the side.

He felt like Prince Ji was going to have a fight with Li Zhiyun.

Li Shen snorted and turned away.

The nursing home is located in the dense forest in front. It has beautiful scenery, singing birds and fragrant flowers, and a pleasant view.

But at this time there is nothing left, it's bare.

A road leads deep into the dense forest.

The road was lined with leafless trees.

This was Li Shen's first time here, and he was also very curious.

The road is not straight, it is winding.

"Is this your first time here, too, Your Majesty?"

Wang De beside him looked at Li Shen and asked.

“Yes, this is my first time here too. I can’t make any money here in a year. I just want to give those heroes a place to recuperate.

To be honest, this king really is not doing this for money.

These heroes have fought bravely for the Tang Dynasty, and we, the royal family, should treat them well."

Li Shen replied seriously.

Wang De nodded. Prince Ji did a good job in this regard.

After walking for a while, a small bridge appeared in front of us. After crossing the bridge, we reached the nursing home.

As Li Shen walked across the small bridge, he heard someone talking not far away:

"Your Majesty, Prince Ji is too evil. He actually asked us for 2,000 strings of cash a year to rent a small courtyard here.

They also asked us to pay for management fees, sanitation fees, and even drinking water.”

Li Shen recognized it immediately; it was the voice of Cheng Yaojin, a tough guy.

His face turned dark involuntarily. This old devil Cheng actually dared to complain behind my back.

Then Li Shen heard Yuchi Jingde's voice again:

"Yes, Your Majesty, you must make the decision for us old ministers.

Two thousand strings of cash could buy a small house in Chang'an City, but here it's just one year's rent.

We also have to pay for food.

And they are all twice as expensive as those in Chang'an City. He said that these are called green food, have no pollution, and are good for the body.

Even the meat from his farm is sold at two different prices when sold to the public and when sold to us.

What was it said...?”

“They are said to be free-range, the chickens are called native chickens, and the pigs are called free-range pigs.

Your Majesty, tell me which of these animals are not free-range, he is clearly trying to defraud us of our money."

The person who was speaking, Li Shen, sounded like Tang Jian.

That’s not right. Shouldn’t Tang Jian be at work at this time?

Wang De was filled with regret at this moment. He was so bewildered that he actually believed what King Ji said just now.

I was really blinded by greed and believed that Prince Ji, who loved money like his life, would not make money for these achievements.

Li Shen's face was also livid at this moment. These old guys actually wanted to complain collectively.

All the food I feed you is green and pollution-free, but you don’t even appreciate it.

Those livestock have never been fed hormones and are all healthy. What's wrong with asking you two for money?

"Your Majesty, this retirement home of His Royal Highness Prince Ji is indeed a bit expensive. I have spent more than three thousand guan in the few months I have been here."

The voice was very calm, and Li Shen was very familiar with it. Wasn't this Li Jing? Shouldn't he be recuperating in medical school?

Li Shen quickly quickened his pace. He couldn't let them say that, otherwise he would be scolded.
