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

Li Shen's article caused quite a stir both in the upper class and among the people. The people were happy that the imperial court paid so much attention to education and wanted the people to study.

The common people understand the importance of reading very well. If you read and understand, you can become a high official. This is the common people's understanding of reading.

The princes, nobles and court officials did have different expressions after reading this article. Some people were very pleased.

It can be seen from the article that Li Shen does not want to compete for the throne. These people are all old people in the Qin Palace. They do not want the Xuanwu Gate incident to happen.

Others are very fortunate that these people belong to the faction that strives for the stability of the court.

As for the Aristocratic Family, they were both disappointed and happy. What's disappointing is that if Li Shen doesn't argue, it will be difficult to find a loophole to deal with Li Shen.

Fortunately, if Li Shen had fought and had the power, it might have been a disaster for the family.

The grudge between King Ji and them is difficult to resolve. They assassinated Li Shen. Not only did Li Shen kill their people, but he also lost many officials because of Li Shen.

Not counting these high positions, including the Minister of War, the Governor of Tongzhou, and the Prime Minister of Taichung, dozens of official positions in various departments were lost because of Li Shen.

It can be said that the person the family hates to the core is Li Shen, and now Li Shen is still digging up their roots.

At this moment, there was also a copy of today's newspaper on Li Shimin's desk. He had just read it and was very satisfied with Li Shen's article highlighting the imperial court and highlighting his affairs with the prince.

Li Shimin felt that although his son was out of tune most of the time, he was still very reliable sometimes.

"Alas, although this child is sometimes unreliable, he is still good at critical moments. He knows how to make choices, but he is a little timid." Li Shimin sighed. If this son is more reliable, he will definitely be able to assist the prince when he succeeds to the throne. .

"Your Majesty, this is an invitation from His Royal Highness Prince Ji." Wang De felt that he should not give the invitation to Li Shimin after listening to Li Shimin talking to himself.

"What invitation?" Li Shimin was stunned.

"The invitation to the imperial concubine's birthday banquet takes place in heaven and on earth." Wang De replied cautiously.

Time stood still for a moment, and Li Shimin suddenly roared:

"You bastard, you treacherous son. How could my biological mother send invitations to my father for her birthday? Did he think that I wouldn't go?" Li Shimin felt that what he just said was a real retribution.

This slap in the face was too quick. He had just said that Li Shen was reliable in doing things, and then he came out like this. It was his mother's birthday and he sent an invitation to his father. Li Shen was the only one in the world.

In fact, Li Shen cannot be blamed for this matter. Li Shen himself felt that Wang Xuance should be blamed, who asked him to write an extra copy.

For the sake of convenience, Li Shen made all the invitations in the same style without writing names. Otherwise, there would be so many people in the three provinces and six departments that most of them would not know each other. Anyway, the invitations would be fine if they were high-end.

So when there was an extra portion, Li Shen got excited and asked someone to give it to Li Shimin. And he didn't send it himself, he asked Shitou to send it to Wang De along the way.

"Give it to me...forget it, let him be spared this time." Li Shimin originally wanted to call Li Shen over, a kind father and a filial son.

But after taking a look at the newspaper, I decided to forget it. Li Shen didn't mention himself in the entire article, and it was also stated that he and the prince paid for it.

This filial piety moved Li Shimin very much.

Li Shimin got up and took the invitation back to the Lizheng Hall of the harem. Empress Changsun had already prepared meals. Li Shimin had been notified to have meals here earlier.

Empress Changsun waited on Li Shimin to wash up and then sat down to eat.

"Guanyin Maid, are you ready with the gift I asked you to give to your concubine?" My concubine also had to express her birthday.

"Erlang, I'm worried right now. I don't know what gift to give." Empress Changsun said sadly.

"Aren't there eighteen South Sea pearls in the treasure? Just give them to the noble concubine." Li Shimin thought for a moment, and eighteen large South Sea pearls were considered valuable.

Queen Changsun glanced at Li Shimin strangely,

"Erlang, those eighteen pearls were put in by Sister Wei. They were given by Shen'er last year."

Li Shimin was a little embarrassed, and he didn't remember it either.

"Then give me the white jade Guanyin."

"That was given by Shen'er to my concubine. How could it be given to Sister Wei again?" Empress Changsun rolled her eyes.

"That set of Yu Linglong will also do."

"That was also put in by Sister Wei. It was given by Yuan Zheng last year."

"Yes, there is also a blood coral."

"It was Sister Wei who put it in too." Empress Changsun was helpless.

"Where's the Night Pearl?" Li Shimin asked again without giving up.

"It was also sent by Shen'er to Concubine Wei."

"..." Li Shimin was speechless

"Mr. Guanyin, could it be that the imperial concubine put all the treasures in my treasury?"

Now that I am also a rich man, and I have more money than Li Shen, why don't I have any treasure?

"Erlang, think about it for yourself, have you touched the money in your internal funds? And haven't you rewarded all the tribute items this year?

It was Erlang who said that the others were too precious, and then you selected the tribute items and gave them to the ministers. Now I feel sorry for my concubine who manages the internal funds and has no treasures. "Queen Changsun said aggrievedly.

"Mr. Guanyin, that's not what I meant." Seeing Empress Changsun's aggrieved look, Li Shimin also relented and quickly explained.

The person Li Shimin hates the most right now is Li Shen. You said why you gave more gifts than tributes, so you made a fuss and gave away all the tributes.

After the meal, the two began to discuss what to give. In fact, if it were someone else, Empress Changsun could just give her something. When Li Shimin left, it would be more valuable than anything else.

But Concubine Wei is not an ordinary person now. Under Li Shen's money offensive for many years, Concubine Wei has a very important position in the harem.

Just the more than 200 million yuan from the past few days was worth Li Shimin's efforts.

The two were drinking tea and chatting. Suddenly Li Shimin thought of something and took out Li Shen's invitation from his arms and handed it to Queen Changsun.

"Erlang, what is this?" Queen Changsun asked curiously.

"My good son sent me an invitation to attend the imperial concubine's birthday banquet." Li Shimin placed the invitation in front of Empress Changsun.

"Pfft~~" Queen Changsun spat out a sip of tea.

Then he covered his face and smiled.

Seeing Li Shimin's helpless look, Queen Changsun couldn't help it.

"Haha, Erlang, isn't Shen'er too formal? Haha, Shen'er is still so naughty."

"Hmph, I think he wants me to teach him a lesson again. Once I teach him a lesson, he will be stable for a while." Li Shimin snorted coldly. He felt that the two-year punishment last time was a bit light.

"Erlang, Shen'er is still young, so it's normal for her to be naughty. Why don't you, Erlang, write a copybook for Sister Wei yourself?"

"Well, this is fine," Li Shimin was quite willing. He saved money and couldn't let his son take issue with him.

And his son was looking at his personal eunuch Shi Shi with a bitter look on his face.

"Shitou, are you stupid? Are you stupid? Did you really give the invitation to Lao Wang?"

"Didn't His Highness say that if there are too many, we can consider giving one to His Majesty." Shitou said aggrievedly.

"Damn it, what I said was consideration and what I said was a joke, can't you tell? Look at whose mother celebrated her birthday and sent an invitation to her father. You really killed me."

Li Shimin didn't expect that it turned out to be a misunderstanding.
