I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 8 Li Shimin is Coming
In Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin, who had just finished discussing matters with the ministers, was looking at the memorials sent from various places. Anything that can be sent to him is a big deal. Local disaster relief is needed. Where is the rebellion? There are also places where cults appear.
"Everyone, it's getting late. It's time to eat." Wang De reminded Li Shimin softly.
"I'm not hungry now. I'll eat later. Wang De. Why is it so difficult for me to be a good emperor? There are disasters every year. The Xiang Qiang clan of Taozhou rebelled against Tuyuhun. There are also officials from aristocratic families who oppose me. government decree. Do you really think that I dare not touch them?" Li Shimin was a little troubled
"Everyone, these old slaves don't understand very well. But His Majesty's hard-working old slaves do." Wang De did not dare to say anything more. Eunuchs were not allowed to participate in politics. This is the ancestral teaching.
"Okay. You've been flattering me for more than ten years. There's nothing new about it. You still can't keep up with Li Shen." Li Shimin waved his hand to indicate that Wang De's flattery failed. But Li Shen and Li Shimin said again.
"Wang De, how is the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"Reply, everyone, you asked me to find out the news about King Shen. King Shen went to elementary school at the age of 4. He entered the Imperial College this year. The tutors at the Imperial College said that King Shen studied hard and was very smart. He is just a bit taciturn. He likes to be quiet. He never goes out to mess around with other noble children. He especially likes to read some miscellaneous books." Wang De told what he found out.
"Is there anything else? How did his treatment method come about? The Imperial Medical Office still doesn't understand the reason. The person has stopped breathing for a quarter of an hour. It can bring the dead back to life without acupuncture or medicine. It's comparable to an immortal. It's magic. Some people say it's magic." Li Shimin continued to ask
"Everyone, I have already asked. King Shen will always stay in Daji Hall after school. I asked the servants of Daji Hall. They said that after returning to the hall, King Shen will spend the rest of the time in the house except paying respects to Concubine Wei and having meals. I read books there. And I heard that Concubine Wei asked the Wei family to send a lot of books to the palace for the sake of Shen Wang. These books are very miscellaneous. There are all kinds of books." Wang De reported truthfully.
"Well, today's incident should have been spread out of the palace. Keep an eye on it yourself. Don't be taken advantage of by some people with ill intentions."
"Don't worry, everyone. I've already asked people to release the news in Chang'an. It's all positive news. I also asked people to pay attention at all times. If there are any bad rumors, find out the source as soon as possible, and then notify Jinwu Guard to get someone." Wang De replied
"Well, just go and do it. This kind of thing is just a auxiliary function. It won't last a few days. Come on, let's go for a walk. I'm a little hungry."
"It's everyone. Why don't you go to the Lizheng Hall? I can make arrangements for you." The Lizheng Hall is the palace of Queen Changsun, and the Daji Hall is next to the Lizheng Hall.
"Instead of going to the Lizheng Hall, go to the Daji Hall." Li Shimin thought about it and said
"Yes, everyone, I'll make arrangements right away." Wang De said
-------------------------------------
At this time, Li Shen was directing the arrangement of seats in the front hall.
"Shen'er, what are you doing? I heard that you evacuated all the caves?" Concubine Wei's voice came from outside.
"Look, concubine. It's a good thing. From now on, we don't have to kneel all the time. Concubine, my legs don't hurt anymore." Li Shen said to Concubine Wei excitedly. Concubine Wei is tall and tall. It is recorded that Concubine Wei was 1.9 meters tall.
Li Shen didn't believe it at first. I believe it after traveling through time. Li Shen felt that Concubine Wei might be more than 1.9 meters tall. Concubine Wei's legs are taller than Li Shen's. Because I am tall, it is very inconvenient for me to sit on my knees.
Concubine Wei walked into the front hall and looked around. All the collapse has been removed. There are things like Hu stools placed in the hall.
"Concubine, come here. Feel it." Li Shen stepped forward and pulled Concubine Wei to sit on the Grand Master's chair in the center. Let Concubine Wei feel it.
Concubine Wei sat on the Taishi chair and looked around. Touch the left and right handrails. Lean back. He said, "Yeah. Not bad. It's quite comfortable."
"Concubine, if you feel the chair is cold, ask your servants to make a cushion and put it on top." Li Shen added.
"Shen'er, where did you learn these tables and chairs?" Wei Guifei asked Li Shen
"I read it in an ancient book. My legs were sore and numb when I was sitting on my knees. The child just didn't want to sit on his knees anymore, so I found someone to do it." Li Shen replied that there was half of the Analects of Confucius in ancient times to rule the world. It is reasonable for this ancient book of mine to be popular all over the world.
"My son is smart. Okay. It should be dinner soon. Go and wash up." Concubine Wei praised.
Just then a eunuch was brought over. Came to Concubine Wei and Li Shen. He saluted and said: "Concubine Wei. Manager Wang asked the servant to come over and say something. Your Majesty will be arriving soon. Let the concubine prepare to welcome the saint."
Li Shen was stunned. What is Li Shimin here for? By the way, didn't you say I would give you a reward? Could it be delivered in person? That would be a big deal.
"Yes. I know."
"Mother Concubine. Are you here to give me a reward?" Li Shen asked puzzledly.
"Shen'er, do you think you have the face? Can your Majesty deliver the things in person? The rewards were already delivered when you left." Concubine Wei glanced at Li Shen sideways.
"I don't think I have that ability," Li Shen replied seriously. Besides, it’s not worth it to give it away just for fifty guan. He originally thought that fifty thousand gold was a lot, but later Lan Yuer told him that fifty thousand gold was fifty thousand money. Li Shen counted only fifty strings. This is too stingy.
Seeing her son's serious answer, Concubine Wei's head was full of black lines!
"Okay, get ready and clean everything up. Li Shen, you go and wash up too. Hurry up. Go to the front door to greet His Majesty immediately," Concubine Wei urged.
Li Shen also led others to wash up and change clothes quickly.
Everyone in Daji Hall was standing at the gate at this moment. After a while, I saw a group of people walking over. A group of guards entered the Daji Hall first. Li Shen knew that he was checking the environment.
“Met everyone”
“Meet Aye”
"Meet the Saints"
When everyone saw Li Shimin approaching, they quickly saluted.
"Well, no courtesy. Concubine, I will have dinner at your place today." Li Shimin said to Concubine Wei
"This is my concubine's honor, everyone, please" Wei Guifei hurriedly replied
"Um"
Li Shimin took the lead in entering Daji Hall. Concubine Wei followed closely behind. Followed by a group of palace maids and eunuchs. He was holding a food box in his hand. Li Shimin eats. Usually they come from Guanglu Temple, and the Shangshi Bureau only cooks for the harem and concubines.
Concubine Wei led Li Shimin into the side hall, and as soon as he entered the side hall. Li Shimin was stunned. Concubine Wei was also stunned. The tables and tables used to eat are gone. There is a large round table in the center of the main hall. There is a circle of benches around it.
"What is this?" Li Shimin asked curiously. In fact, Li Shimin can guess a thing or two just by looking at the style. I just don’t know what it’s called
"Aye, this is the table. The one that looks like a stool is called a chair. It's placed here for eating." Li Shen quickly stepped forward to explain.
"Oh? This is quite novel. Wang De, please bring the food." Li Shimin asked Wang De
"It's everyone." Wang De responded. Ask the palace maid to open the food box. Put dishes on the table. Originally prepared for three points. Because now there is only one table and everything is placed on it.
"Aye, please take a seat," Li Shen helped Li Shimin pull out his chair. Ask Li Shimin to sit down.
Li Shimin sat down and leaned back. There are no armrests on either side of the dining chair. Li Shimin felt it and found it quite comfortable. He said:
"Well, not bad. It's indeed more comfortable than sitting on your knees. Come on. My concubine, you guys also sit down and have a meal together."
Concubine Wei sits on the left and Li Shen sits on the right. Then Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
Li Shen just started to use his chopsticks. Worked all afternoon. He is hungry too. Get ready to eat.
"Li Shen. Where did you get these tables and chairs?" Li Shimin asked
"Aye. I made it at Si Zhi Fang," Li Shen replied
"I'm asking you where you learned about this table and chairs." Li Shimin continued.
"Go back to Aye. This is what I saw in an ancient book. My aunt has been suffering from leg pain recently. Her blood vessels are blocked from sitting for a long time. So I went to the department store to make this table and chair so that my aunt doesn't have to kneel for a long time. ." Li Shen replied. He had no choice but to call Concubine Wei Auntie in front of Li Shimin.
"Yes. You are filial." Li Shimin praised.
Li Shen asked Dongmei to take another pair of chopsticks and use them as serving chopsticks. He picked up a piece of fried meat with serving chopsticks and put it on Li Shimin's plate.
"Aye, eat more meat."
As a modern person in his previous life, Li Shen likes the feeling of having family meals together. But in this era, meals are shared. No sitting down to eat together can bring us closer.
Li Shimin was stunned when he looked at the meat on the plate. He had never felt this way about eating. In the past, meals were shared. For the first time, he had children bringing him food to eat. This gave Li Shimin a very subtle feeling.
"Your Majesty," Wang De, who was beside him, stepped forward to remind him.
"Okay. This is the palace. He is my tenth son." According to the rules, Li Shimin cannot use unfamiliar tableware. So Wang De warned him. But Li Shimin was experiencing family affection. Li Shimin also didn't believe that Concubine Wei dared to poison.
After that, Concubine Wei also picked up the serving chopsticks to pick up food for Li Shimin. Li Shimin also ate and drank a small drink. The scene was a loving father and a filial son, and it was a happy scene.
Note: (The children of the concubine call their biological mother aunt. They call their first wife mother. You can check)
"Everyone, it's getting late. It's time to eat." Wang De reminded Li Shimin softly.
"I'm not hungry now. I'll eat later. Wang De. Why is it so difficult for me to be a good emperor? There are disasters every year. The Xiang Qiang clan of Taozhou rebelled against Tuyuhun.
