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

Zhang Sheng was a fief of Prince Ji’s mansion, and his entire family was also a fief of Prince Ji’s mansion, but they just joined later.

Belong to the introduced talent.

His family was not originally from the vicinity of Chang'an, but from Henan Province.

That year, a severe flood hit Henan Province, affecting twelve counties.

Li Shen used work-for-relief to build a cement road from Chang'an to Xinzhou.

At that time, Zhang Sheng performed very well and worked very hard.

Later, because he had been to school and could read, the construction site put him in charge of counting the workers.

Later, he was responsible for purchasing some food, helping to pay wages, and doing some management work.

At that time, Zhang Sheng was diligent, hardworking, meticulous in his work, and studious.

He is also very smooth-talking and has a good relationship with the foreman.

The foremen were all sent by Prince Ji's Mansion to supervise the work. Seeing that Zhang Sheng was a talented person, they recommended him to work in the workshop of Prince Ji's Mansion.

It is said that talented people should never be buried anywhere. Zhang Sheng was studious and could read and write.

In just half a year, he was promoted from a craftsman to a workshop leader, and he also became a fief of Prince Ji's Mansion as he wished, and moved his family to the farm under Prince Ji's Mansion.

The family built a two-acre house and finally lived a happy and fulfilling life.

This made Zhang Sheng work and study harder.

It happened that Wang Hongfu wanted to train some reserve talents at this time to prepare for the future expansion of the palace's industry.

Zhang Sheng was selected in this way.

Zhang Sheng has a high emotional intelligence, is good at observing people's words and expressions, and is proactive in doing things, which makes him deeply appreciated by Wang Hongfu.

Wang Hongfu wanted to train Zhang Sheng, so he asked him to follow Wang Wencheng to the northwest to expand the business and hone his skills for a few years.

A few years later, he was transferred back to his side and became his right-hand man.

But what Wang Hongfu never expected was that the Zhang Sheng he had his eyes on had become so unfamiliar.

Wang Hongfu's words made Zhang Sheng completely collapse.

Only after becoming a fief of Prince Ji's palace did he realize how difficult their lives were before.

If the weather is good and the harvest is good, they can ensure food and clothing.

But if a natural disaster occurs, they will not have enough food to eat.

Although the Tang Dynasty had sufficient food in recent years, the imperial court would release grain for disaster relief and exempt taxes even in years of disaster.

But the imperial court only distributes grain, and will not give you any meat or cloth. It just ensures that the people do not starve to death.

Things were different after becoming the fief of Prince Ji’s Mansion. Most of the food was his own, especially for a shopkeeper like him.

Prince Ji's palace exempted them from taxes, and all the food was their own.

During the New Year and other festivals, there are also rewards from the Ji Wang Mansion, especially when there are happy events, such as the birth of a new child in the Ji Wang Mansion.

One reward was equivalent to several months' salary for him.

Eating meat every day is no longer a dream. All the children in the family are studying. This is a life like a fairy.

But all these will soon become a bubble because of me, and my parents and children will be left homeless.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng regretted it deeply.

"Manager Wang, Manager Wang, everything is my fault, and I am willing to die as an apology.

I hope Manager Wang will show mercy and spare my family.

In the next life, I am willing to work like a slave to repay the kindness of Shopkeeper Wang. "

Zhang Sheng kept kowtowing to Wang Hongfu, with such force that blood oozed out.

At this moment, a guard came in from outside.

"Treasurer Wang, a cellar was found in a room, and a large amount of valuables and gold, silver and jewelry were found inside.

Two women were found in a room, their bodies covered with wounds.”

"Manager Wang, please let my family go. I am willing to give all the treasures to you."

Zhang Sheng said quickly.

"Give it to me? Humph, those are not your things, Zhang Sheng. They are all property of Prince Ji's mansion.

His Highness Prince Ji knows all about your dealings with Wang Wencheng.

I might as well tell you that I came here to capture Wang Wencheng."

Hearing that Zhang Sheng offered to bribe him, Wang Hongfu looked very serious. Not to mention that he looked down upon this little money,

He wouldn't dare touch any amount of money, because the guards who came with him were not just there to protect him.

He knew in his heart that if he didn't handle the situation well, he would most likely be killed as well.

Zhang Sheng's face was as pale as death. He could not escape death. Even his cousin Wang Wencheng would not be spared, let alone himself.

He now only prayed that his family would not be harmed, so he continued to kowtow, with blood and tears streaming down his face.

"Alas, Zhang Sheng, if you had only embezzled some money from Wang Wencheng, you might have had a chance of survival.

But you should never rely on the Ji Palace to do evil things outside.

Killing people and robbing women are heinous crimes that are unforgivable. You should have realized this long ago.

As for how to deal with your family, I have no right to do so.

Everything is still up to His Royal Highness Prince Ji, but if you can make up for your crime with meritorious service, I will report it to His Royal Highness Prince Ji truthfully.

By then, His Royal Highness Prince Ji may show mercy and not embarrass your family, allowing them to continue to be the fief."

When Wang Hongfu saw Zhang Sheng's appearance, he felt a little regretful, but no pity.

Everyone is responsible for their own mistakes.

Even Prince Ji had to be careful and cautious in doing things, and if he made a mistake, he would be beaten.

"Thank you, boss. Thank you, boss. I will definitely cooperate with you. I am willing to do anything you ask me to do."

Upon hearing that there was a turn for the better, Zhang Sheng kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.

His family is fine, even if he dies it doesn't matter.

"Go get some paper and pen."

Wang Hongfu gave an order to the waiter.

The guys were stunned. Their arrogant boss was actually going to die?

Is this changing a little too fast?

The rich and fat man in front of him turned out to be the chief treasurer of Prince Ji’s mansion.

Wang Hongfu's order woke him up.

"Oh, oh, I'll be there right away."

After saying that, he ran to the study to get paper and pen.

Wang Hongfu pointed and said:

"Write down your evidence of guilt and everything you know about Wang Wencheng. Whether you can atone for your crime depends on your attitude.

You can write it yourself. I can only give you this opportunity. "

Zhang Sheng knew that he could not escape death, but if he was only forced to embezzle, he could still be fine.

But he was bewildered by evil spirits, lost in power, and did many evil things.

No matter according to the law or the rules of Prince Ji's mansion, he deserves death for this crime.

The only thing he could do now was to protect his family and let them continue to be the fief of Prince Ji's mansion.

We won’t have to go back to the poor days of the past.

Zhang Sheng crawled to the table and began to write down everything he had done.

He couldn't care about anything else now. The fate of his parents and his many children, more than a dozen people in his family, were in his hands.

Everything I know, see, do, haven't done, and hear is written down.

Wang Hongfu stood up and said to a guard:

"Look at him."

Then he took his men out of the room and looked at the evidence they had found.

(Alas, I remembered a classmate who was excellent in both character and study, a good person, and came from a wealthy family.

A person who was good in everything ended up breaking the law. Take this as a warning.
