After the two of them had used their strength on each other just a few times, Li Chengqian already knew Li Shen's strength.

He exerted force with both hands, combined his waist and horse, and threw Li Shen to the ground from behind.

"Ouch!!!" Li Shen fell heavily on the grass.

Fortunately, it was not on the road, otherwise he would have fallen to death.

After that, Li Chengqian rode on Li Shen's back and started to beat Li Shen's butt.

"Ah~~~ Help~~~ Big brother, spare my life~~~"

Li Shen immediately began to beg for mercy.

"Let you lie to me, so let me take the blame for you." Li Chengqian said as he hit her.

"Woo~~~~I can't live like this anymore. I don't want to live anymore~~Woo~~~~"

Li Shen cried, wondering why he was beaten wherever he went.

The same is true in Qinghai and in Chang'an City.

"Gao Ming, how could you hit your brother like this? Get up quickly." Empress Chang Sun hurried forward and pulled Li Chengqian.

"Mother, I'm having fun with my tenth brother."

Li Chengqian stood up and said to his mother with a smile.

"Mother, I won't live any longer. Everyone bullies me and beats me everywhere. I can't live like this any more."

Li Shen hugged Empress Changsun's legs and cried, feeling extremely aggrieved.

"That's enough. Stop crying. Get up now."

When Li Shimin saw Li Shen's look, he immediately scolded him.

Li Shen, who was in pain just now, suddenly felt the cloudy sky turn sunny and he stood up.

"Humph, do you think you're invincible after just two months of training?

Do you know that your elder brother has been practicing for more than 20 years, and you only practiced for a short time and you want to compete with him?

Do you really think it's that easy to be a crown prince?"

Li Shimin snorted when he saw Li Shen's look. He knew how much manpower and resources he had spent in training this prince.

It took so much effort to achieve what I have today.

You must be proficient in both civil and military strategies. You don't need to be proficient in them, but you can't be too bad at them either.

"More than 20 years?" Li Shen opened his mouth wide.

"Shen'er, your elder brother has been learning wrestling for more than ten years, and has practiced martial arts for more than twenty years, and has dabbled in riding, archery, singing and dancing.

So don’t take it personally if you lose, you’re not good at that.”

Empress Changsun also comforted Li Shen.

No wonder he couldn't beat Li Chengqian. He had been learning wrestling for more than ten years and martial arts for more than twenty years.

Am I not showing off my skills in front of an expert today? Am I showing off my skills in front of Guan Gong?

"Okay, don't waste time, Wang De."

Li Shimin saw that it was over and Li Shen was really beaten, and he was in a good mood.

Wang De came over with a tray with a few drinks on it.

Everyone drank a cup, and Li Chengqian said loudly:

"Your Majesty is welcome back to the capital!"

After the ceremony, Li Chengqian followed Li Shimin's procession towards Chang'an City.

The ministers in the court were all waiting at the city gate, and Li Chengqian only needed to welcome the emperor at the city gate.

However, Li Chengqian did this to express his filial piety and also to reassure Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty is welcome back to the capital!~~~"

Outside the Jinguan Gate, civil and military officials gathered together and saluted Li Shimin.

"My dear friends, no courtesy."

After that, there are various rituals.

Although Li Shen also wanted to go home, he did not escape.

"You three should go home first, and then have dinner at Huan Gong after noon."

Walking on the main road of Chang'an City, Li Zhiming said to Li Shen, Li Tai and Li Zhi.

"Yes, Aye." The three of them bowed, and Li Shen led his men towards his Qinrenfang.

"The prince is back."

Following the announcement from Prince Ji's Mansion, all the servants stood in front of the gate. Lu Dingniang, Wu Meiniang, Dayuer and others were all waiting at the door.

Li Shen's carriage soon arrived at the gate of Prince Ji's mansion.

When Li Shen got off the carriage, all the servants bowed deeply:

"We sincerely welcome the prince back to his residence."

Hundreds of people shouted together, making the sound deafening.

"Welcome back to the palace, Your Majesty." Lu Dingniang and others also came over.

"Hahahaha, I'm finally back.

Everyone, please excuse yourself.”

Li Shen laughed out loud, he was finally back, after all the suffering he had endured.

"The old rules of Fugui." He said and walked inside.

"Okay, Your Majesty." Wei Fugui agreed.

All the servants were smiling happily, as Prince Ji's reward was very valuable.

Li Shen took Lu Dingniang and Wu Meiniang directly back to the backyard.

"Aye, Aye~~~" Xixi Yangyang ran over.

"Oh my, it has increased so much in just a few months."

Li Shen picked up the two children.

Kissed on the side.

"Your Highness, you just came back and you must be exhausted from the journey. You should take a bath and change your clothes first." Lu Dingniang said.

“Yeah, okay.

You two little ones go play, I will come play with you when Aye is free."

As he spoke, Li Shen put down the two children and brought Lu Dingniang and others to the bathing place.

He was really exhausted.

Not only did he have to rush along the way, but he was also beaten up by Li Chengqian. He must wash away his bad luck.

He had also abstained from sex for more than two months, and when he came back today, he felt like he could do ten.

After taking off his clothes, Li Shen comfortably entered the wooden barrel.

Lu Dingniang and a few others started to give Li Shen a bath.

"Madam, why don't we take a bath together?" Li Shen smiled.

"Haha, my dear, didn't the doctor tell you to abstain from sex? It won't be too late for me to accompany you after we see Dr. Sun tomorrow.

You can’t delay your husband’s recovery.”

Li Shen, who was originally preparing to show off his skills, suddenly became speechless after hearing what Lu Dingniang said.

"My lady, I have been abstinent for two months. Who told you that?"

Li Shen was a little puzzled. He had just returned, so how did Lu Dingniang know about it?

Seeing Li Shen's bitter face, Lu Dingniang smiled sweetly:

"My dear, you don't have to do this. You should take a good rest now. There are few people in the Ji Palace, and we are counting on you to carry on the family line.

Don't lose the big picture for the small. Tomorrow I will go with you to see Dr. Sun for a diagnosis."

Lu Dingniang knew that her husband had the personality of a child and sometimes had to be coaxed.

Otherwise, when his stubborn temper comes up, no one can control him except Concubine Wei.

"Well, fine, then you and Mei Niang will also take a bath together, because you will have to go to the palace with me to meet the emperor later.

Dinner will be eaten in the palace."

Li Shen nodded, but still found an excuse.

Before meeting the emperor, one must bathe, change clothes, and wash away all impurities before meeting him.

Lu Dingniang had no choice but to follow Wu Meiniang and the other woman, take off their clothes and get into the bathtub.

Li Shen seized the opportunity to hug her left and right. Since he couldn't do it, he might as well satisfy his desire.

This made the two girls shy and the scene was extremely blurred.

The concubines who were bathing Li Shen nearby were all blushing.

It took Li Shen half an hour to finish washing. When he came out, he felt refreshed, but Lu Dingniang and Wu Meiniang had flushed faces.

In the pavilion, Li Shen held the third girl born to Lan Yuer in one hand and his eldest son, the fourth, in the other.

The third girl's full name is Li Yinyu, and her nickname is Chijia, which was given by the queen.

The fourth son, Li Wei, did not have a nickname yet. It was a name given to him by Li Shimin.

The third child is already one year old, two years old in terms of age, while the fourth child is only six months old.

Looking at Xixi and Yangyang playing in front of him, Li Shen now has a son and a daughter.
