Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

Everyone looked at Li Shimin. It would be a big deal if His Majesty was sick.

Li Shimin had a gloomy face.

"Let's stop here today. Someone take Prince Ji back to the barracks and have someone keep an eye on him so he doesn't go out."

"Huh?" Li Shen was stunned.

"Aye, I haven't finished my tea yet."

"Go back to the barracks and drink your own." Li Shimin said with a wave of his hand.

Li An immediately called in two guards.

"Yeah, I can go back by myself, there's no need to escort me, right?" Li Shen looked embarrassed.

His father's expression changed so quickly. Why did it change so quickly?

It turns out that emperors are difficult to serve.

Li Shimin did not say anything. Two guards carried Li Shen on the left and right and walked out.

"Aye, why is this happening~~~wasn't everything fine just now?

Hey~~~Don't pull me, I can walk by myself~~~

I won’t come here again next time, no matter what, I won’t come here, let me go~~~~"

"Ji Lang, you....Ah~~~"

Empress Changsun shook her head helplessly. She didn't know what to say about this father and son.

"Aye, I'm leaving there too."

Li Tai and Li Zhi also bowed to Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, and after receiving their consent, they withdrew.

"Chi Nu, since you have nothing to do, why don't you come to my place and have a cup of tea to sober up."

After the two of them left the Protectorate, Li Tai said to Li Zhi.

"Alright."

Li Zhi nodded in agreement.

The two of them came to Li Tai's house and set up a tea table in the garden.

The two began to drink tea and chat.

"Fourth brother, this Li Shen is too despicable, relying on his few bucks to show off everywhere.

Father Ye didn't know why, but he loved Li Shen, his illegitimate son, very much.

You also saw today that he was so rude to Aye, but Aye not only did not punish him, he even played tricks with him.

If it were you and me, or even the eldest brother of the Crown Prince, we would also be punished by Aye.

What is it about Li Shen that makes him so special that Aye looks at him in such a different light? "

As soon as he sat down, Li Zhi began to complain indignantly.

Li Tai poured a cup of tea for Li Zhi.

"Chi Nu, why haven't you gotten used to Aye's favor towards Lao Shi?

This is not the beginning. Ever since the Tenth Prince left the palace, Aye has been doting on him more and more.

I'm used to this, so there's nothing to be angry about.

It's because we brothers are incompetent and cannot bring wealth to Aye.

Don't be so angry, come and have a cup of tea."

Seeing Li Zhi so angry, Li Tai tried to persuade him with a smile.

He was angry and jealous, but he just didn't want to show it.

"Fourth brother, aren't you angry? Look at the way he gave mother a gift just now, his face was full of flattery.

Mother is the same, it's just a few pieces of jewelry, why are you so happy? "

"Zhi Nu! You can't say that about your mother. Your mother loves you the most, how can you criticize her behind her back?"

When Li Tai heard Li Zhi saying something bad about Empress Changsun, he immediately scolded him.

"Yes, I know I was wrong. I was just angry at the way Li Shen looked when he gave me the gift just now."

Li Zhi quickly admitted his mistake. He certainly knew that Empress Changsun loved him the most.

"Well, since Old Ten is rich, if we were rich, we could also honor our mother in the same way.

Don't think too much.

Now Aye’s love for Li Shen is unmatched, and we brothers can’t compare to him at all.

Even the prince cannot compare to him, this is a fact.

So we'd better not provoke Old Ten."

Li Tai tried to persuade him earnestly, but Li Zhi seemed even more unwilling to accept.

"Humph, so what? He is also a bastard's son, and we are legitimate sons. When the crown prince succeeds to the throne in the future, we will be brothers with him.

He, Li Shen, is just a bastard, so who can predict what will happen in the future? "

Li Tai couldn't help but shake his head at Li Zhi's words.

He knew that Li Zhi did not submit to Li Shen. They were born in the same year, but Li Zhi was a few months older.

But the two people's situations are completely different.

When he was a child, Li Zhi was very popular among people, not only Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, but even Changsun Wuji liked him very much.

But with the sudden appearance of Li Shen, everyone's focus began to shift.

Originally, all his halos were bestowed on Li Shen.

Their emperor father looked at Li Shen with admiration, and their queen mother also loved Li Shen very much.

This made Li Zhi very jealous and envious.

That's why he always wanted to compare himself with Li Shen, but he was inferior to Li Shen in every way.

When he grew up, he secretly formed an army to fight against Li Shen, and the first person he took revenge on was Li Shen. He robbed and killed the merchant caravan heading north from Prince Ji's mansion.

He wanted to cause some trouble for Li Shen and make him lose money.

But he didn't expect that in the end everything he had would be ruined by Li Shen, which made him hate Li Shen even more.

"Fourth brother, don't you hate him? If it weren't for him, you would have had a chance to sit in that position."

Li Zhi looked at Li Tai and asked seriously.

Li Tai thought for a moment, as if he was really thinking, and then shook his head.

"Fourth brother, do you really not hate him?" Li Zhi was a little unconvinced.

"Haha, Chi Nu, to be honest, Fourth Brother did hate him at first, but later on Fourth Brother began to try to understand Old Ten,

If you look at these things as an outsider, you will find that everything Lao Shi did was for the Tang Dynasty.

And I cooperated with the aristocratic family at the beginning, so even if the prince could not succeed to the throne, it would not be my turn.

Because Aye’s goal is to weaken the aristocratic families.

I have lost that opportunity by working with the family.

So no matter whether Lao Shi took action or not, the outcome would be the same.

By then, it may be even worse than it is now.”

Li Tai's words were sincere and pertinent; he had indeed thought about this issue.

Li Zhi fell silent after hearing what Li Tai said.

But he did hate Li Shen even more.

According to what his fourth brother had just said, if Li Shen did not help the crown prince, Li Tai would not be able to inherit the throne.

He is likely to be the ultimate beneficiary.

Because he is the legitimate son, he has priority in inheritance.

But all this was ruined by that hateful bastard.

"Okay, Chi Nu, don't think about things that haven't happened yet. It's actually pretty good for us to just be a prince.

There is endless wealth and glory to enjoy, and you don't have to work hard all day long. What's wrong with being a free and easy wanderer?

Look at Old Ten, he's living a god-like life, I envy him very much."

Li Tai's face was full of longing.

"Okay, let's talk business. You all can go down." Li Tai waved his hand and asked the servants to go down.

After no one was around, Li Tai asked Li Zhi seriously:

"Zhi Nu, you always tell Fourth Brother, is this incident related to you?"

"What's the matter?" Li Zhi was stunned.

"Is it about attacking Aye and attacking important towns?

Are the people who have been smuggling supplies to Tubo also related to you?"
