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

In fact, Li Shen felt that the so-called materialism believed in by later generations was itself a kind of superstition. They classified all things that they could not explain as superstitious, non-existent, and unscientific.

And this group will stand up as soon as something happens, either to crack it, or to give experts' personal opinions, or to prove it by superstition and unscientific, or by coincidence or far-fetched theory.

To put it bluntly, in one sentence, it either doesn’t exist, or if it exists, it belongs to materialist science.

This is what Li Shen hated most in his previous life. A culture of more than 5000 years was dominated by science of several hundred years.

Human beings have measured the size of the universe without even leaving the solar system, and they claim it is science.

The intangible thing light has also been confirmed by so-called science, and the speed of light has been determined to be 30 kilometers. If you question it, you don't understand science.

China's purple energy came from the east, and stargazing at night was said to be feudal superstition.

Therefore, Li Shen was very familiar with this method of breaking rumors in later generations. It's just that Li Shen didn't expect that things would work so well in this era.

Li Shimin was listening to Li An's report at the moment. After Li An finished his report, Li Shimin still asked uncertainly:

"Are you saying that after the newspaper was published for more than a day, the rumors died down?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, people are now looking for suspicious people on the streets. In half a day's work today,

Wannian County Yamen and Chang'an County Yamen have captured more than [-] people who stole and robbed refugees. Because they were not traitors, they did not give them a hundred guans.

However, King Ji had ordered that the person caught should be rewarded from [-] to [-] yuan according to the crime he committed, and the sum would be collected and settled at the palace. He said that the people should not be disappointed. "Li An reported what he knew again.

"Yes, we can't let the people work in vain. Let the Ministry of Household Affairs pay this money when the time comes, so don't go to Prince Ji's Mansion." Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, and then took a sip of tea.

At this time, Prince Li Chengqian walked in. It has been four or five months now, and Li Chengqian's legs are almost healed.

Sun Simiao suggested walking around appropriately to activate blood circulation.

“Meet Aye”

"Well, Gao Ming, I have rejected Gao Shilian's intention to become an official several times these days. He is indeed old. I want to ask you what you should do."

Li Chengqian is 24 years old this year. He has lost his youthfulness and has the fortitude of a young man because he often goes to military academy to recuperate.

When Li Shimin saw Li Chengqian, it was as if he saw himself when he was young. Today, Li Shimin is very satisfied with Li Chengqian. As long as Li Chengqian makes no mistakes, no one can shake his status.

"Aye, I think we can't let Duke Shen take up an official position. Duke Shen is a pillar of talent, and now is the time to employ people." Li Chengqian thought for a moment and said.

"Well, I think so too. I am going to remove him from the post of right servant of Shangshu and let him take over the duties of Zhongshu as the third division of Kaifu Yitong. You should consult him more often." Li Shimin was satisfied. Nod

"It's Aye"

Li Chengqian's current East Palace officials can be said to be top-notch. Changsun Wuji is the prince's Taishi, Fang Xuanling is the Prince's Taifu, Xiao Yao is the Prince's Taibao, Li Ji is the Prince Zhan Shi, and Li Daliang is the Prince Youwei Xuan. Zhining and Ma Zhou were the prince's concubines, and Zhu Suiliang was the prince's guest. These people were all famous ministers.

"Have you been to Lao Shi recently?" Li Shimin actually hoped that Li Chengqian would interact with Li Shen more. Some of the views Li Shen sometimes put forward were very special and insightful.

"I heard that Lao Shi is not at home." Li Chengqian replied

"Not at the house?"

"Yes, I heard that I went to the manor by the Piao River. My tenth brother dug a lake beside the manor and diverted the water from the Piao River into it. Then I caught a lot of fish and put them in it. Now I follow him all day long. His servant girl is fishing by the lake."

Li Shimin's face darkened after hearing this, "You bastard, he is so despondent with playing with things. He only knows how to have fun and cannot do anything serious for the court. He should be 15 years old this year."

"Aye, my tenth brother is not here, and you can't force it. In fact, I think it's better this way. If something happens, Aye will come to him to find a solution. If nothing happens, Aye can also be clean." In fact, Li Chengqian also wanted to say One word is safety.

Li Shimin thought about it and realized that this was really the truth. If this old man was in the court all day long, wouldn't it be a big deal?

"Let's go, I have nothing to do anyway, come with me to see what our Li family's God of Wealth is enjoying?"

When Li Shimin and Li Chengqian saw Li Shen, they were stunned. Li Shen was covered in mud and his clothes were all soaked.

His head and face were covered with mud, and he was holding a nearly two-foot-large fish in his arms. Li Shen was stunned when he saw the two of them. Shouldn't these two appear in front of him at this time?

"Li Shen, what are you doing? The royal child has no manners at all. How can he be decent?" Li Shimin started to roar immediately. Of course, anyone who sees his son acting like a monster must scold him first.

Li Shen grinned, his face full of mud showing two rows of white teeth.

"Haha, Brother Aye, you came just in time. Look what this is. You have never seen such a big fish. I caught it. I gave it to it in a while."

"Tenth brother, are you sure this is what you caught and not what you caught from the river? Look at the muddy water you're covered in." Li Chengqian looked at Li Shen holding the fish and thought it was Li Shen who went down to the river to catch it himself.

"What are you talking about? You can still catch fish in the river? They were caught by fishing. I just went down to catch them when I got to the shore. There was just a little accident in the middle. It doesn't matter." Li Shen said He struggled with reason and had to catch it. Although he went down to fight with the fish and the fish learned a lesson, luckily the guards swarmed around and he was able to catch it ashore.

Li Shen was afraid that Li Chengqian wouldn't believe him and pouted at Wu Mei beside him, motioning to show him the fishing rod.

Li Chengqian took it and looked at it. When he saw the fishing line, he was surprised and said: "You actually use sky silk as fishing line?"

"What? Let me take a look." Li Shimin on the side also took the fishing line and looked at it carefully, then looked up at Li Shen.

Tian silk has good flexibility, soft hand feel, and natural green and yellow-green shimmering luster. It is a tribute among tributes. Due to special reasons, even if there are not many in the palace, tributes are not paid every year.

Li Shen actually made a large roll of fishing line from Tian silk. The price was enough to feed Prince Ji's family fish for 100 years.

"You are such a prodigal. Where did you get the silk today? Did you steal it in the palace?" Li Shimin could not find any words to describe his current mood.

"Aye, what are you talking about? Would a rich man like me steal?" Li Shen was unwilling after hearing this.

"It was about a month ago that someone discovered Celestial Silkworms in Chuzhou. I ordered people to buy them and make clothes for my mother and concubine. I ended up using the remaining ones to make fishing lines."

"Alas~" Li Shimin sighed, why couldn't Li Shen be so filial to him. He doesn't have many pieces of Tiancan silk clothes.

"You are so filial." Li Shimin said thousands of words into one sentence

(Celestial silkworm silk is a kind of wild silk that does not need to be dyed but can maintain its natural green color. Heavenly silkworm silk is rare and expensive. It sells for up to 3000 to 5000 US dollars per kilogram in the international market. It is mainly distributed in parts of Anhui, Guangxi, Heilongjiang and Jilin. . Japan and North Korea also have it)
