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

Li Shimin was about to go down to court, but he saw Li Shen poking his head at the door. So he said loudly: "Li Shen, what are you doing sneaking around there? Come in and talk if you need anything."

Li Shen heard Li Shimin calling him and quickly entered the hall. When all the ministers saw Li Shen coming in, they all stopped. I want to see what Li Shen wants. After Li Shen stepped forward and saluted. He said to Li Shimin:

"Aye, isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival soon? I'm here to give you a gift."

"Oh. Then why not send it to the harem?" Li Shimin asked

"Aye, the things were delivered to you as soon as they were brought back from outside the palace." Li Shen said

"What exactly is it? It just so happens that the ministers haven't left yet. I also asked the ministers to taste it." Li Shimin said to Li Shen

"Yes. Bring it up," Li Shen said to Xiao Shitou and others behind him.

I saw Little Stone Chunxiang Dongmei Lanyuer each walking in holding a red sandalwood box. Standing next to Li Shen.

Li Shen took a box. He said to Li Shimin. "Aye. The Mid-Autumn Festival gift I give you is a good wine I got by chance. I named it Zhenguan Nong Palace Yuye Wine."

Wang De stepped forward and took the box. Li An opened it and looked at it. There was no problem. Wang Decai placed the box in front of Li Shimin. I saw two rows of words on the lid of the box. Above is Zhenguan Niang. Below is the palace jade liquor. Below is a picture of several immortals drinking wine. The depiction is lifelike. Look inside the box again. Two jars of wine were wrapped in red silk.

Li Shimin took out a jar. Wang De helped remove the sealing mud, and the aroma of wine overflowed after opening it. Even the ministers in the front row smelled it. Li Shimin asked Wang De to get a wine glass and pour a glass. Found as clear as water. If the smell of wine hadn't come out, Li Shimin would have suspected it was water rather than wine. Pick up the cup and get ready to taste it.

"Everyone, this old slave is greedy. Let me have a taste first." Wang De said. This is the rule. It is also Wang De’s loyalty.

"It doesn't matter, King Ji is just a child." Li Shimin meant that King Ji was so young. Will not poison

Li Shimin took a sip. Instantly, the smell of alcohol rushed straight to his forehead. Li Shimin was unprepared, and he didn't want to make a fool of himself, so Ninja didn't cough. So my face turned red from holding back.

Others were horrified when they saw this scene. Thought it was poisonous. Wang De hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Everyone, are you okay?" The ministers were also anxious.

Li Shimin had already recovered at this moment, "Good wine. Really good wine. This wine is pure and transparent, full of wine strength, with outstanding soy sauce aroma in the entrance, elegant and delicate, mellow body and long aftertaste. It can indeed be a palace jade liquid."

The ministers saw that Li Shimin was fine and praised Li Shen for being so good. Everyone felt that even if it was given by your son, it would not be such a compliment. They all drank good wine. They even drank the tribute wine from the palace.

Li Shimin saw everyone's suspicious expressions and said, "Since it is good wine, I should drink it with you. Go get the wine glass."

"I have the Aye wine glass." Li Shen said quickly. Then someone brought out a box of fine porcelain wine glasses. Let people distribute it.

Li Shimin was stunned. Li Shen has even prepared a wine glass. It seems that today's gift has another purpose. Wang De took the wine jar and filled it up one by one for the ministers below. Suddenly the hall was filled with the aroma of wine. Li Shimin raised his wine glass and said, "Come, gentlemen, let's drink together."

The minister thanked him and drank it all in one gulp. Li Shimin didn't tell them that this wine was stronger. Suddenly there were coughs in the hall. Then they all looked at Li Shimin resentfully. But the wine does last a long time. Bottomed out early in the morning. No impurities at all. Afterwards, Li Shimin asked everyone to drink another drink. Let’s savor it carefully this time. Indeed, as Li Shimin said, the aftertaste is long.

"Aye, this is a good gift from my son, isn't it?" Li Shen was ready to promote it.

"Well, very good. I like it very much. Where did you get this wine?" Li Shimin asked cooperatively. He knew that Li Shen opened a winery of his own.

"I found it in a place called Boutique Pavilion in Dongshi. There are ten boxes of boutiques in total. I bought them all to give as gifts during the holidays. But I heard that they will open tomorrow and sell low-end and high-end wine gift boxes. They are all for Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. Excellent product. Even the low-end wine is much better than the wine on the market. But I heard that the quantity is not large. After all, it is definitely not easy to make such good wine." Li Shen replied

Listen to Li Shen finish. Many people think that they should go and see it tomorrow. Ready to buy as a gift. These people are all lower-ranking officials.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, I wonder how much your wine is worth?" Fang Xuanling suddenly asked

"How much does Fang Xiang think this palace jade wine is worth?" Li Shen asked.

"I think such fine wine should be worth ten thousand yuan." The prime minister smiled and said, ten thousand yuan is actually ten thousand yuan.

"Haha. Prime Minister, I can only tell you that this palace jade liquor costs one hundred and eighty glasses," Li Shen said with a smile.

"One hundred and eighty cups?"

"180 Wen, or 180 Hao?"

"It must be 180. How can it be 180?"

"Just that glass of wine cost 180 Wen?"

"Each of us drank 360 Wen just now."

"Your Highness Prince Ji, do you know how much this box of two jars of wine costs?" Tang Jian asked next to him.

"To be honest with Tang Shangshu, a box of wine costs fifty cents," Li Shen replied. In fact, the cost is less than two cents. But no one else has this thing. Things are rare and valuable. Back then, the West used glass to cheat us out of our money.

Just finished. There was a sound of breathing in the hall. Fifty people are used to two jars of wine. It’s not that you can’t afford it. All can afford it. But some people are willing to do so. The best thing in Chang'an only costs two cents, and many people are reluctant to part with it, let alone fifty cents.

Li Shimin was also surprised. This Li Shen is really willing to spend money. Wang De next to him was also startled. The jar of wine Li Shen gave him was worth 25 yuan. I can sell four or five acres of land. Then everyone said that Li Shen was filial. How good are you to Li Shimin? Such flattery. It made Li Shimin smile.

Just when the minister was praising, Li Shen picked up another box and walked to Changsun Wuji and said.

"Can I trouble my uncle to bring this box of wine to my eldest sister? Just tell her that my younger brother can't leave the palace to deliver it to her personally because of Aye's disapproval, so she doesn't mind."

Hear this. The corner of Li Shimin's eyes twitched. I knew Li Shen meant something. But Li Shimin remained unmoved. Just watching.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Prince Ji, for your beauty." Changsun Wuji took the box and said with a smile. He has to drink the wine in the end. Li Lizhi doesn’t drink. This is a box of fifty.

Li Shen took another box and walked up to Li Chengqian and said, "Brother, take this box back. Aye doesn't allow me to leave the palace. I can't deliver it to your house in person. After you go back, you can use good ginseng and deer antlers to soak in it." Keep it. Then seal it and open it again after a month. Drinking a small cup every day is good for your health. Brother, drink less in the future."

Li Chengqian also took it over with a smile. He knew that Li Shen wanted to leave the palace. But Li Shimin didn't allow it. So I'm stimulating Li Shimin here.

Then Li Shen gave Li Tai another box. Same words, same reason. Li Shimin felt embarrassed in front of the officials.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, just retreat." Li Shimin didn't want to see Li Shen now, it was too embarrassing.

Everyone walked out of Tai Chi Hall. I saw a carriage below. There were five or six boxes on the carriage. Knowing that this is what Li Shen has left.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ji. I wonder if I can sell a box to the old minister." Zhang Liang, Duke of Yun, stepped forward and asked.

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Zhang. I have to give away these ten boxes. I will give them to Mr. Zhang next time," Li Shen said. I happened to see Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong shouting quickly:

"Uncle, emperor, uncle, wait"

Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong stood still and looked at Li Shen in confusion.

"Two imperial uncles, it's Mid-Autumn Festival. My nephew also prepared one for the two imperial uncles," Li Shen said

Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong are both clan members and princes. Li Shimin's cousin. So Li Shen also prepared one for them. What's more, Li Daozong also helped Li Shen.

After saying that, he walked to the car and picked up a gift box and gave one to each person.

"Two imperial uncles, you ask the imperial doctor to prescribe some medicinal herbs for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and soaking them in wine. After a period of time, take one cup a day to treat hidden wounds. You have worked hard with Aye for many years." Li Shen said sincerely.

"My nephew is interested. This is what a clan member should do." Li Xiaogong said

"Yes. Li Shen. It's all for my Li family dynasty." Li Daozong also said

The two of them were also very touched by Li Shen's respectful treatment. The ministers next to him also greatly appreciated Li Shen's actions. In ancient times, the word filial piety came first. Li Shen's move won the favor of many ministers.
