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

"Haha, I want to see how you make us regret it. I really thought you would be invincible if you won twice," Li Tai sneered.

"Okay. Then I'll give you and the family a long memory. Stone, stone." Li Shenfa said harshly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, here it is, here it is." The stone ran over from a distance.

"Now go to the Secretary's House to borrow the carriage. Ask my aunt to get the key to the warehouse and pull money to the East Palace for me. Fifty thousand guan. I can't finish it today and will continue tomorrow. Go quickly and pull it until the palace gate is closed."

Li Shen waved his hand. Shout loudly to the stone

"Hiss" everyone in the audience took two breaths. This Li Shen is indeed very wealthy. In order to combat Li Tai's power, he gave the prince [-] guan.

"Brother Li Shen is so generous."

"Why did he give money to the prince?"

"I don't understand this. Of course it's to increase the prince's power. Fifty thousand strings. It can do a lot of things."

There was a discussion among the people. Li Chengqian at the scene was also confused. Fifty thousand guan, he has never seen so much money in all the years he has been a prince. Li Shimin was very harsh on the prince. He was thrifty even in the palace. Not to mention the East Palace. The prince cannot do business. Then we must not let these Ziwenchen censors be impeached to death. Therefore, although Li Chengqian's life was not poverty-stricken. But it can’t be said to be glorious or wealthy.

Li Shimin was also stunned. Then Li Shimin laughed. This Li Shen is really ruthless. Behind Li Tai is the support of his family. Helped Li Tai bribe many officials to support him. But the prince has no money. The only people who supported the prince were these founding veterans. That's because Li Chengqian is the eldest son. For the sake of the stability of the court in the future. I'm afraid something like Xuanwu Gate will happen. Li Shen gave Li Chengqian these [-] yuan. If used well. It will make Li Chengqian's position more stable.

Li Tai's face turned green. The family has supported him for so long, but the total amount is only [-] yuan. Most of them come from his own industry. Li Shimin has given him many gifts in recent years. Otherwise he wouldn't be able to support the expenses. But now Li Shen gave [-] yuan to the prince. Fifty thousand habits. If you win over people, how many people can you win over? How many talented people need to be recruited? You can do a lot of things. This damn Li Shen doesn't play by the rules. [-] yuan is used to giving it away.

"Tenth brother. It doesn't have to be like this. Big brother will never accept it." Li Chengqian, who had recovered, said to Li Shen

"Okay, brother. This has nothing to do with you. Just take the money and do what you need to do. I think there are many things you haven't done because you have no money. Now feel free to be bold. Do."

Li Tai stared at Li Shen fiercely. Just like Li Shen who wants to eat food. And Li Shen looked at Li Tai with provocative eyes, which seemed to mean something. Come, come, hurt each other.

Everyone nearby felt the atmosphere on the field and did not speak. Just then Li Shimin spoke

"Okay. Don't look at each other like that. As a younger brother, his eldest brother is living in poverty. It's normal to give him some money. Gao Ming does not have much money in the East Palace, and he doesn't even have money to repair the East Palace. Gao Ming, your tenth brother will give it to you now. The money should be used in the right way. Repair the East Palace. You are not young anymore. It’s time to spread the branches of my Li family. So I have to repair it well. I can’t let my grandson suffer, you know.”

"It's Aye. Then let me thank my tenth brother for this friendship." Li Chengqian saw Li Shimin asking him to accept it. Fortunately, I accepted it. He really has no money. The most miserable prince in the Tang Dynasty must be him.

"We are all brothers. We just say thank you and leave. Aye is right. Get me a nephew as soon as possible. The other thing is not important." Li Shen also said jokingly.

The next scene was extremely cheerful, except for Li Tai. At this time, Li Tai had the worst Zhengyuan Festival since he was born. Chongchong left after the dinner. And all the princes came over to establish relations with Li Shen. They all want to have some soup at Li Shen's. They are all suffering too haha. Enter Li Shimin, the father. It is strange that his son can have money. In the middle and late Tang Dynasty. The prince's salary is ten thousand a year.

After the banquet, the last part of the funeral and keeping the New Year's Eve together. Li Shen is the same as last year. I found a corner and sat down. Li Chengqian will no longer stay in the palace this year. Li Shimin specially authorized Wang De to gather the carriages in the palace to go to Daji Hall to collect money and send it to the East Palace. The Yulin Guards of the Palace Gate on the East Palace side have added two more guards. One is to prevent accidents, and the other is to help Donggong transport money. Li Chengqian and the Crown Princess went back to watch.

"Li Shen, what are you doing here? Come and talk to me." There was no Li Chengqian. Li Tai also left. Everyone dared to talk to him. Everyone is submissive. Even Li Zhi is the same.

"Okay. Aye, what do you want to say? I'll tell you what you want to say."

"Why did you give Gao Ming so much money today?" Li Shimin asked

Li Shen told the truth about Li Tai's intention to buy shares today. No embarrassment. "Fourth brother thought that if the family supported him, he would have a chance. I think he is a little too carried away."

"Floating, oh. This is a good adjective, but he is a bit floating. The aristocratic family is really pervasive, that's how they are. If you were an ordinary person, unless you handed over the method, your family would have been ruined long ago."

"Aye, you have always had to deal with the aristocratic family, and the eldest brother also knows very well that the aristocratic family will be in trouble in the future if he doesn't get rid of him. But why doesn't the fourth brother understand? The aristocratic family supports him, so Aye cannot pass the throne to him." Li Shen is puzzled

"Haha. You are smart. But it is normal for you to not understand the politics of the court when you are young. The operation of the court mainly depends on the courtiers. Now most of the minor officials below are children of aristocratic families. Children of aristocratic families occupy the majority of the court. Some. Officials of the family do not agree with many things. Even if you issue them, they cannot be implemented. The family supports Li Tai. If they can win over a certain number, their power is very powerful. Although the veterans in the court support the prince, but only If they intend to support it, they will not end up in the game. Because they are all Dukes of the country, whoever becomes the emperor will rely on them. Therefore, they will only be neutral and not help each other. By then, if the aristocratic family seizes the clever information and spreads it to the people . Over time, the reputation of the prince among the people has deteriorated. They are proposing to abolish the prince. By then, the old ministers will not strongly oppose it, and even I have no choice." Li Shimin said helplessly.

"So, we still need to deal with the aristocratic family first." Li Shen said

"It's easier said than done. The dynasty is a dynasty with a thousand-year-old family paying New Year's greetings. This sentence is not said casually. They have been passed down for thousands of years. Their influence is spread throughout the government and the public. It is difficult to deal with."

Li Shimin is also worried. In history, Wu Zetian still killed aristocratic families and shed blood in rivers. Li Shimin failed to do this when he was in power.

"Well, their power is mainly political and business. We should find a way to get more people to study." Li Shen thought while stroking his chin.

"It's easier said than done. Now I have set up official schools all over the country. But I still have little effect. There are only a few who are truly talented."

Li Shimin was worried if things continued like this. How many years and months will we have to deal with the aristocratic family? There was no way to discuss this matter with Changsun Wuji and the others. Even if they had a way, they wouldn't tell Li Shimin. They are actually a small aristocratic family. More or less, they all have something to do with the aristocratic family.
