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

Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui looked at each other after hearing Li Shen's words.

Of course they knew what Li Shen meant, and they also knew what Li Shen's unfinished words contained.

"What does the prince mean..." Wang Xuance asked.

"Without evidence, can't we do something? I'm just wondering how far we have to go."

Li Shen's face was cold, with a trace of murderous intent in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, now is not the time. We don't have the ability to protect ourselves yet." Wang Xuance said when he saw Li Shen's advice.

"Don't worry, I won't do this. Although I am not a good person, I still care about my brothers and sisters." Li Shen looked at the two of them.

"My lord, do you think the affairs in the north are related to Prince Jin?" Wang Xuance suddenly said this.

"North??" Li Shen was stunned after hearing this. He really had never doubted this.

But if they are connected in series...

When he first discovered the clues, he was killed by Li Shen's cheap uncle, Zhi, who lost his mind.

And Zhi lost his thoughts and was now guarding Yanqi at the Anxi Protectorate.

But this time Li Shen was about to capture King Jin's personal guards, but he was killed by unknown people again.

There are two people involved here, one is Li Zhi and the other is his father Li Shimin.

"Xuance, immediately send someone to conduct a detailed investigation of all the properties of Prince Jin's Mansion and the income of the shops.

Including the salary of the Jin Palace and the yield of the fields, they were then given to Wang Hongfu and asked to calculate them for me personally. "Li Shen ordered.

"Your Majesty means..."

"Look at his annual income and his spending.

If he supports such a large number of people outside, the amount of money he spends in a year is not a small amount.

Even if these people are on the grassland, they still need to eat and receive a salary.

Just look it up and you’ll find out. Li Shen reminded.

"Yes, I will send someone to investigate right now." Wang Xuance took the order.

"Move quietly and don't arouse suspicion." Li Shen instructed.

"Rengui, please withdraw all your sharp blades and stop wandering around the city."

"My minister obeys."

After giving the instructions, Li Shen waved his hand and motioned for both of them to go out.

And Li Shen sat blankly in the study alone.

"I am a son too."

~~~The dusk is picturesque~~~

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei, we just received news that a guard of the Jin Palace was killed."

Du Chuke, a staff member of the Wei Palace, reported to Li Tai.

"Killed by someone? Killed by who." Li Tai was also extremely surprised.

Killing the personal guards of the prince's palace is not a trivial matter. This is a provocation to the imperial power.

"The government said that the murderer ran away. He was not caught, and few people nearby saw him." Du Chuke replied.

"Who do you think is so brave and dares to kill Lao Jiu's personal guard? It seems that he has a grudge against Lao Jiu." Li Tai asked doubtfully.

"My lord, have you forgotten what happened not long ago between Prince Ji and the Prince Consort? At that time, Prince Jin and the Prince Consort were together.

And he has always stood on the side of the consort to defend him. Otherwise, given King Ji’s overbearing and unreasonable habits,

It is very likely that the prince-in-law was convicted of assassinating the prince. " Du Chuke reminded.

"You mean Lao Shi did this?" Li Tai was even more surprised.

Although Lao Shi usually does some mischief, he is still very good to his brothers and sisters, and he is also very low-key.

"My lord, I think it should be King Ji who did it, because only King Ji has this strength.

The prince must have heard that King Ji has a team of a hundred people, similar to a hundred cavalry, and everyone is carefully selected from the guards.

Each possesses special skills and strong martial arts, so they can kill a bodyguard in a short time.

Otherwise, does the prince think that the guards of Prince Wei's Mansion have this strength? Du Chuke asked rhetorically.

Li Tai nodded. Although the words were a bit hurtful, they were indeed as Du Chuke said,

His guards in Prince Wei's Mansion want several people to kill one guard. Unless the guard doesn't run away, they may not be able to kill him.

"Haha, I hope it was Lao Shi who did it. The more ferociously the two of them fight, the better."

Li Tai suddenly smiled. Now he is no longer competitive, and Prince Li Chengqian's position is as stable as Mount Tai.

If you want to fight, you have to make the current stable situation chaotic. The more chaotic the better.

"Then... Your Majesty, should we add more fuel to their fire?

Otherwise, King Jin might not be able to defeat King Ji. " Du Chuke suggested.

"Hmph, do you really think that my ninth brother is weak and incompetent? He is the most tolerant of our brothers.

I guess that he must have a trump card in his hand that has not yet been revealed.

We just need to watch quietly. If the eldest brother succeeds in the future, we can still return to our fiefdom to be rich and prosperous. "

Li Tai knew clearly whether someone from the royal family was more economical.

The guards of the Jin Palace were killed, and the news was deliberately blocked. Those who knew about it were also told not to spread the news. After all, it was something that would harm the royal family's face.

There was no response from Prince Jin's Mansion, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of insiders.

A few days later, Datang’s First Chamber of Commerce released news that funds for the construction of two cement roads had been prepared.

A total of [-] million copper coins were prepared, and a total of [-] people donated.

More than [-] of them donated more than [-] yuan.

This surprised Li Shen but also made him feel that it was reasonable.

Li Shen's Prince Ji's Mansion also announced that it would spend one million yuan for road construction.

And arranged for people to immediately start the construction of the merit monument.

It can be said that everyone is happy with the final result.

Today is the Great Court Meeting, and officials of fifth rank and above in Beijing will be present.

Today is also the day when Li Shimin receives the Tibetan envoys.

After discussing government affairs, Li Shimin nodded to Wang De.

"It is said that the Tibetan envoys have paid an audience~~~~"

Soon, several people were brought in by the guards. The leader was Sangyang Dunni, who had been here last time and was also the deputy prime minister of Tubo.

"Foreign minister Sangyang Donne led the Tibetan envoys to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"Tubo envoys, I wonder why you want to see me?" Li Shimin asked majestically.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the first thing I came to ask for during this visit is me, Tubo Zanpu, requesting to establish mutual trade with the Tang Dynasty.

Promote the good relationship between the two countries Qin and Jin, and hope that our two countries will always coexist peacefully.

The second is to request His Majesty the Emperor to allow our princess Samga to return to Tubo. I Zanpu misses my sister and has fallen ill several times. I hope His Majesty the Emperor will grant this. "

Sangyang Dunie respectfully bowed deeply to Li Shimin to express his plea.

"You want to open a mutual market?" Li Shimin frowned. With their current relationship with Tubo, how could they possibly open a mutual market?

Moreover, according to intelligence, Tubo has experienced domestic instability due to a food crisis in the past two years.

Many large tribes did not obey the rule of Songtsen Gampo, and Songtsen Gampo had been busy stabilizing the internal affairs.

Li Shimin looked at the ministers, and then asked Fang Xuanling:

"Do you have any opinion, Mr. Fang?"

"I wonder what type of mutual trading the Vice Minister refers to?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"We, Zampu, propose that we choose a place on the border between our two countries and open a trading market. I don't know what to do." Sangyang Dunye replied.

"Then where did you choose?" Fang Xuanling continued to ask.

"At the foot of Chiling Mountain."
