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

Early the next morning, Wang De arrived at Prince Ji's Mansion early. After Wang De conveyed Li Shimin's oral instructions, Dongmei, who was on duty, began to softly ask Li Shen to get up and go to court.

It's just that Dongmei has followed Li Shen for so many years and knows what's wrong with Li Shen. When Dongmei tried to wake Li Shen up for the third time, Li Shen fell into a daze and allowed Wu Mei and two personal maids to wash up and put on the prince's clothes.

Li Shen was in a semi-sleep state throughout the entire process, with his eyes closed. Even the cold wash water did not wake Li Shen up.

After everything was packed up, Wu Mei and Chunxiang helped them get into the carriage. Li Shen also lay down in the carriage and continued to sleep.

Li Shen is a person who cannot get up early. In his previous life, Li Shen could stay up late but could not get up early.

This is still the case in this life.

By the time Li Shen arrived at the Tai Chi Hall in a half-asleep state, everyone had already started attending the court meeting.

If Wang De hadn't led him, Li Shen wouldn't have known where he was going with his eyes closed.

Li Shen, who came in after him, did not go forward. According to his rank, Li Shen was the first-grade prince, so he should be in the same row as Li Chengqian and Li Tai.

But Li Shen directly found a seat next to a big pillar in the back, knelt down and leaned against the pillar, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

What I started talking about this morning were some big and small things in the country. Most of these things have been done before, and the results were reported to Li Shimin in the court.

There are also some matters that need to be decided by Li Shimin or discussed by ministers.

I don't know how long it took, but Li Shen heard someone calling him, and then his brain restarted and started running slowly. He opened his eyes and looked around. He first confirmed where he was now and found that he was not in Prince Ji's Mansion. Then he looked around. Call yourself in the direction.

Seeing Li Shimin looking at him, Li Shen realized that he seemed to be in the court. Finally, his brain slowly sent a signal to his body,

He stood up and saluted Li Shimin and said, "I have met Aye. When I first arrived, I saw Aye discussing matters with the princes, so I did not disturb Aye and did not give him a courtesy. I hope Aye will forgive me."

Even if you are not awake, you still have to say something. Otherwise, he would probably suffer disaster. This was Li Shen's instinctive reaction.

The ministers looked back and smiled at Li Shen's serious nonsense. This King Ji was still as shameless as before. It's really amazing not to mention sleeping, but to say not to disturb His Majesty's affairs.

Li Shimin was used to this kind of thing. He had long seen Li Shen come in and sleep against the pillar. Can he not see that Wang Dedu is back?

It's just that Li Shimin didn't bother or pay attention.

"Well, please listen to what the landlord just told you." Li Shimin nodded in approval.

"Oh, what did Fang Xiang report?" Li Shen asked blankly.

"Your Majesty, there is a rumor in Chang'an that the tangerine tree extracts the human heart and liver to commemorate the heavenly dog. Now the rumors are getting more and more intense, and the people of Chang'an are starting to feel insecure.

People didn't even dare to walk alone at night, and some timid people didn't even dare to sleep. They had to hold a sword to have any sense of safety.

Such a mistake may cause disaster, and in recent days it has been rumored that Chi Chi was sent by an official to worship the Tengu.

There are also rumors that the appearance of Chi Chi is the sign of great chaos in the world. "Fang Xuanling recounted what was reported in the newspaper below.

"Do you have any good ideas?" Li Shimin asked.

"It's really ridiculous. There's no such thing as this in the world." The first person to speak was the fat man Li Tai. Moreover, it was a meaningless sentence, and Li Shimin ignored it.

"Your Majesty, there was a rumor about Chi Chi during the Southern Dynasty. Emperor Wu of Liang ignored it at that time, and the rumor was eliminated in half a month." Gao Shilian stood up and said

"But now the rumors have been going on for more than half a month. But they are getting more and more intense. I guess there must be someone behind this." Fang Xuanling does not think that letting things go is a good thing.

"Your Majesty" At this moment, Changsun Wuji stood up,

"I also feel that there is someone behind this matter who is adding fuel to the fire, and we should find out."

In ancient times, rumors and rumors were really difficult to deal with unless the government took tough measures, who said who would be arrested and punished.

Moreover, because ordinary people have not read the book, they do not have the ability to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood. Therefore, what the imperial court fears most is rumors about the imperial court.

"King Ji, what do you think?" Li Shimin called Li Shen here today just to see if he could do anything. In fact, Li Shimin already knew about this.

But I didn’t expect it would spread so quickly and have such a bad impact.

This rumor and public opinion is very clear to Li Shen who has traveled through time.

This little rumor is nothing. The spread of rumors in the previous life was ten thousand times faster than in this period. There is a picture at the beginning, and the content is all made up.

There is also a group of keyboard warriors to support and a group of gangsters to serve as backup.

What Li Shen is thinking about now is what benefits he can get from Li Shimin.

He had an idea after building a chamber of commerce. He wanted to build a business park. It is a multi-functional business park or industrial park that integrates wholesale, production, sales and transportation.

It's just that this industrial park is best located near a dock or near the Weishui River. If that doesn't work, just build a big dock yourself.

It's just that he has a lot of land in both directions southeast of Chang'an, and the Weishui River is just north of Chang'an.

Looking at Li Shen's expression, Li Shimin knew that he had no good intentions. He knew his son better than his father, so Li Shen must have wanted some benefit.

So he added: "If you can help me solve this matter, I will not be stingy with the reward."

"Hahaha, Aye, I see what you said, I was just thinking of a way. It doesn't matter whether you are rewarded or not. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, you should share the worries of the court and Aye. There really is a way here. You can give it a try.”

Li Shen's embarrassing laughter made everyone present feel that it was so fake.

The money-grubbing character of kings in these age groups is well known. They are not only greedy for money, but also love to enjoy themselves and are lazy. Not only the ministers in the court knew about it, but even in the marketplace of Chang'an, there was a rumor that Li Shen was the reincarnation of the God of Wealth.

This kind of character makes everyone believe that Li Shen has no intention of competing for the throne. Just imagine if a person can pretend for seven or eight years, then he will develop this habit. If he didn't develop it, this person would be terrible.

The city is deeper than these old foxes in the imperial court. They don't believe that Li Shen has such a deep city.

Being greedy for money, enjoying life and being lazy is not what a qualified prince should do. He didn't even come to the court to discuss matters because he didn't get up early. If you said he would fight for wealth and corrupt power, few people would believe him.

You have to know how many members of the royal family want to go to court and participate in politics. What Li Tai did is what a person fighting for a reserve should do.

"Oh, tell me, let the gentlemen listen." Li Shimin knew that Li Shen had many clever ideas, but he didn't expect that he would come up with a solution so quickly.
