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

Queen Changsun chuckled lightly when she saw Li Shen's appearance, came to Li Shimin's side, took Li Shimin's arm and said.

"Erlang, Shen'er is right. As the prince, Shen'er did not spend a penny from the palace after leaving the palace. This is very unfair to Shen'er."

Li Shimin said nothing after hearing this, but what he was thinking about was who made this son rich. At that time, when Li Shen left the palace, the treasury did not have much money.

Adhering to the principle of saving money when he can, Li Shimin said nothing.

"Well, since your mother begged for mercy, I will give you half of Qinrenfang, but you still have to pay for the construction of the palace.

Although the treasury now has a balance, it must be prepared for emergencies. "Li Shimin thought about it and felt that this was the truth, so he would reward him.

"Thank you Aye for the reward," Li Shen thanked him happily. In such a small space, it would definitely not be so fast if Wang Hongfu was asked to negotiate.

Because there are other official residences in Jinrenfang, and Li Shen heard that there is also a duke.

This time Li Shimin issued an order, which would be much easier to handle.

"Aye, it's cold outside, why don't you go in and talk." Li Chengqian said,

He found that the two men seemed to be fighting for a while. It was freezing cold and Li Shimin was frozen. What would he do?

"No need, Li Shen. You will come to the court tomorrow morning to discuss the affairs of the victims. Come and listen." Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian.

"Um...Aye, can I not go?" Li Shen asked cautiously,

\"Bastard, what do you think? If you didn't come, you would have resisted the order and ransacked your home. This snowstorm is very serious. All together, tens of millions of people were affected. As the prince, you must also contribute at this time." Li Shimin I got angry when I heard it.

"You just want me to pay for it," Li Shen muttered quietly.

Li Shimin heard Li Shen's muttering clearly, snorted coldly, turned around, and drove back to the palace with Queen Changsun and the guards.

"Tenth brother, you are getting more and more bold. You dare to contradict Aye," Li Chengqian said with admiration.

"Tch~~~ What I said is true, that's how it is. Okay, big brother, get ready and send everything to me tomorrow. I'm going back home.

Really, it would be a bad start to go out and make someone angry. "With that said, Li Shen also got on the carriage and returned home.

Li Chengqian was left messy in the wind. Who made him angry? Shouldn't our father say this?

------Three words for water------

Early the next morning, Li Shen drowsily accepted Lu Dingniang and Wu Meiniang's service to wash and change clothes. Then he got into the car and headed to the palace in a daze.

When Li Shen entered the hall, he almost closed his eyes. He walked to the front and knelt down on his seat. He seemed to have no soul at all.

All the ministers smiled when they saw Li Shen's appearance. Every one of them didn't dress up carefully when they went to court.

His appearance was dignified and his spirit was full of energy. It was as if this prince had lost his soul. His body was in the hall, but his soul might still be at home.

"Your Majesty has arrived~~~~~~"

After a loud chant, Li Shimin walked in at a fast pace.

"Meet the Saints"

After the ceremony, everyone began to discuss state affairs. The main topic today was the four disasters, especially the tens of thousands of refugees in Guannai Road and Chang'an.

"Your Majesty, Zuo Wuwei discovered during his inspection that the number of victims is still increasing. Yesterday it was estimated that there would be almost 6 or [-] people.

People fight over food and other materials every day, and hundreds of people have been arrested. I suggest you make plans in advance to avoid a larger-scale riot. "Qin Qiong stood up and reported.

"Your Majesty, we still need to step up the resettlement of refugees outside the city, otherwise the daily casualties will be too great. Hundreds of people froze to death the night before yesterday.

" Changsun Wuji said.

"My dear friends, do you have any good ideas?"

"Your Majesty, it is better to let the victims return to their places of origin and the court will distribute food to their places of origin. This will relieve the pressure on Chang'an." An official stood up and said.

"No, if we are sent back to our place of origin and have to travel a long way, we don't know how many people will freeze to death." Fang Xuanling objected.

It's true that it's not a day's journey back. It's cold at night, and I don't know how much I'll freeze to death.

"Your Majesty, the cold problem we need to solve now is that people are freezing to death in various areas." Changsun Wuji said.

"Why is this?" Li Shimin asked

"Your Majesty is unaware that the price of charcoal has increased. Today, charcoal has risen to forty cents per pound, and most people cannot afford it." Changsun Wuji continued.

"These profiteers are really hateful. Your Majesty, I suggest that all these profiteers who are driving up prices be arrested." Cheng Yaojin said harshly.

"Your Majesty, no. Although the businessman is of low status, he has not violated the national law. Arresting innocent people may make people say that the court does not care about the law." Lu Chengqing objected.

The family will not miss any opportunity to make wealth, and this time is no different.

The ministers immediately knew that the Aristocratic Family was taking the lead in this price increase. Li Shimin didn't look very good, but he really couldn't arrest people casually, especially people from the Aristocratic Family.

"Tenth brother, I wonder if your number one merchant in the Tang Dynasty is driving up prices." Li Tai suddenly asked.

Everyone also looked at Li Shen,

Li Shen closed his eyes and said calmly;

"Our chamber of commerce is virtuous. We never do such things that harm our morality. We act like gods. There will be retribution for making such money."

Li Shen's criticism of Sang and Huai made everyone in the family look bad.

"Then what have you done to accumulate blessings, tenth brother?" Li Zhi said from the side.

"My little brother gives porridge every day, and the food he brings out is several times more than that of Ninth Brother. Is this considered a blessing?"

I have contributed more than you, so who have you to ask me? That's what Li Shen meant.

"Ninth brother doesn't have the financial resources of tenth brother. If I were tenth brother, I would use all my property to help the victims tide over the difficulties." Li Zhi said with a smile without changing his face.

Li Shen finally opened his eyes and turned to look at Li Zhi.

"Since Ninth Brother is so caring, I can also help you. I am willing to buy your Jinwang Mansion for 200 million guan. Ninth Brother can use the 200 million guan to save the people in the disaster."

Li Shen said calmly, "The little boy and my holy mother, these are all the leftovers from our play."

Li Zhi's face turned ugly, and he didn't know how to answer Li Shen's words. If you say you won't sell, you are just talking empty words.

But he is not a fool to let him sell it.

So I could only say with a forced smile;

"Tenth brother is joking, this is a gift from Aye, how dare I sell it. This is really disrespectful."

"Brother Ninth, for the sake of the victims, I want you to beg Aye. Aye will agree. Besides, aren't you going to be a fief in the future? Sooner or later, the palace will belong to the imperial court. Selling a few hundred acres of land for 200 million guan is very cost-effective."

Li Shen is a person who respects me as much as I respect others. If you dare to cheat on me, I will wear small shoes for you. This was the second time Li Shen mentioned returning to the fiefdom in front of Li Shimin.
