Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, officials of all ranks in Chang'an City began to go to work.

Their office is located in the Imperial City.

They came in twos and threes, some in groups, some alone, some in sedan chairs, and some in carriages.

Of course, no one walked. No matter how close the place was, officials would not walk to court on their own.

It's a question of identity.

"My Lord, I am here."

"Hmm? Hmm~~~~~Hmm,"

Li Shen opened his eyes drowsily, looked around, made sure he was in the carriage, rubbed his eyes, and asked.

"Are you coming?"

Wang Xuance's voice came from outside:

"My Lord, I am here indeed."

"Oh, then I will prepare myself."

Li Shen's carriage was parked at the gate of the imperial city, and the officials coming to court could see it at a glance.

If it was someone else's carriage, the gate guards would have chased you away long ago.

But this was Prince Ji's carriage, and he had been sleeping for quite some time, so no one dared to disturb him.

The general guarding the gate kept complaining in his heart, "You are a good prince, can't you go home and sleep well?"

Sleeping at the gate of the imperial city, is there something seriously wrong?

This makes it difficult for them to rush or not rush.

Everyone who passes by can't help but take a look at Prince Ji's carriage. Apart from His Majesty's carriage in the Tang Dynasty, Prince Ji's carriage is the largest and most luxurious.

There was a circle of guards standing outside the carriage, and inside was Wang Xuance standing on one side and Shi Tou on the other side.

It’s quite a grand occasion.

Everyone who passed by would walk around it and keep a distance from it.

Wang Ruipeng and Wang Ruide also got off the sedan chair and walked towards the palace gate.

The carriage of Prince Ji's mansion could be seen from a distance.

Wang Ruipeng was the Minister of Rites, a fourth-rank official.

Wang Ruide was the Minister of Rites, also of the fourth rank.

Given the highest rank of the Zhenguan Third Grade, these two men were considered to be in high positions of power.

Just as the two were about to make a detour, Li Shen stepped down from the carriage, dressed in tight clothes, with a tight belt and his hair standing up.

"See His Highness Prince Ji."

Seeing Prince Ji, the two men did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly bowed to him.

It would have been fine if they had walked around him, but since they saw Prince Ji not bowing, it was against the rules and was not in accordance with etiquette.

The two could only blame themselves for their bad luck.

"Are you Wang Ruipeng and Wang Ruide?"

Li Shen came up to the two of them and asked while looking at them.

"Return to the business, His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

"I heard that you are from the Wang family of Langya, and your native place is Jimo County."

The two were a little puzzled when they heard this. Why did King Ji check their backgrounds? However, when King Ji asked, the two nodded.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, we two are indeed from Jimo County."

"Well, that's right."

That's right? What does that mean? The two were puzzled and didn't understand what Prince Ji meant.

Just as the two of them were stunned, Li Shen raised his hand.

"Pa!" A very loud slap was heard, hitting Wang Ruide's face.

This time, both Wang Ruide and Wang Ruipeng were stunned.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, why did you hit someone?"

Wang Ruipeng glared at Li Shen and asked.

"because....."

"Snapped!!"

Just when Wang Ruipeng was about to hear what Li Shen had to say, Li Shen raised his arm again and slapped Wang Ruipeng in the face.

Wang Ruipeng was beaten so hard that he spun around on the spot, with stars in his eyes and blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.

Both of them were elderly civil servants in their fifties, and had never learned martial arts. How could they withstand the loud mouth of Li Shen, a man in his twenties?

"You...you dare to hit us? We are heading towards..."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Li Shen attacked from both sides, not giving the two men a chance to speak, and knocked them to the ground.

Even so, Li Shen still refused to give in. He squatted down and continued to beat him.

The two men were beaten so hard that they used their arms to protect their heads.

"Bang, bang." Li Shen punched one of them in the stomach twice, and the two of them immediately covered their stomachs with their hands.

Curl together.

Li Shen took the opportunity to slap them in the face, no matter if it was the face, the nose, or anything else.

All the officials who saw this scene stopped to watch, but they all stepped back to avoid being affected by Prince Ji.

Looking again, Wang Ruide and Wang Ruipeng were already beaten with blood all over their faces, beyond recognition.

They all couldn't help but gasp.

Prince Ji was really cruel. He only hit her in the face and not anywhere else. This was a naked humiliation.

All the officials who were watching felt pain on their faces.

From the time Li Shen attacked to the time he knocked him to the ground, it actually went very quickly, and Li Shen's attack was extremely heavy.

By the time the imperial city guards reacted, it was already too late.

A captain who was in charge of the gate guards was now regretting his decision to leave.

He should have surrounded Prince Ji's carriage in the name of protection.

He knew very well that Prince Ji never attended court, and if he did, something big must have happened.

But he neglected the fact that things had always happened in the court before, and he was still wondering which minister would be unlucky today.

But he never expected that Prince Ji was not causing trouble in the court today, but taking action at the city gate, beating up court officials.

To be honest, this captain now wants to kill Prince Ji. Can't you just make trouble when someone else is on duty?

"Get out of the way, get out of the way."

The captain led his men out of the imperial city, but separated them and wanted to come in.

"My Lord, it's almost done."

Shi Tou, who was standing by, saw the gate guard coming and immediately shouted behind Li Shen.

After hearing this, Li Shen pulled twice more vigorously, turned around and ran towards his carriage. He was agile and got in swiftly.

"Run."

Li Shen gave an order and a whip sounded, and the carriage accelerated instantly. Shi Tou and Wang Xuance had already mounted their horses and followed the personal guards, protecting Li Shen's carriage as it ran away.

The whole action was smooth and happened in just a moment.

Everyone present was stunned. They were a group of organized and disciplined outlaws.

At this time, the gate guards also pushed through the crowd and rushed in, but all they saw was Prince Ji's dusty journey.

"Prince, Prince."

Among the crowd watching the excitement, many colleagues who were on good terms with the two hurried forward to help Wang Ruipeng and Wang Ruide up and asked with concern.

Both men's faces were covered in blood and no one knew how badly they were injured.

"Wuwu~~~I'm going to complain to His Majesty. I'm going to complain to His Majesty."

Everyone was shocked to see this. An official appointed by the imperial court was actually beaten to tears by Prince Ji.

The injuries of the two did not seem serious, but both of them were in tears.

In front of so many people, they were slapped in the face by King Ji, and it was a slap that was so crazy. They both wanted to kill themselves.

As officials appointed by the imperial court and coming from the Wang family of Langya, they had never suffered such a great humiliation.

"You two, how about letting the imperial physician take a look at your injuries first, and then go see His Majesty?"

The captain of the gate guard was named Li, a member of the royal family. He had no power to stop it.

After all, Prince Ji is his family member. Now Prince Ji is taking advantage. He is just a little slow.
