Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

"That's all?"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment when he heard what Li Shen said and then roared: "Is this still a trivial matter? He has already been called the Second Emperor of Qin, is it still a trivial matter? He is the prince! How can I trust him with such behavior? Is it really true? Do you want me, the Second Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, to die?"

Li Shen shrank his neck in fear. At this time, Li Shimin's blood was really rising. He refused to recognize his relatives. Even Empress Zhangsun couldn't persuade him, let alone him. But now that he was here, Li Shen had to bite the bullet.

"Aye, don't be angry. Why don't you let me go to the East Palace to see the situation first and have a good chat with the elder brother. I was the one who advised him last time. It should be of some use this time. If it doesn't work, Aye, you go again. This time How can I bother Aye with such a trivial matter?"

"Yes, Erlang, let Shen'er go." Empress Changsun helped.

"Huh." Li Shimin breathed out, then glanced at Li Shen and said: "No matter what method you use this time, I must make the traitor return to his original state. You go and investigate and find out who is bewitching the prince. It is necessary I allow you to use some means when the time comes."

As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his waist. This is not an ordinary decorative jade pendant. It was given to Li Shimin by Li Yuan when he ascended the throne. It has the same function as a waist badge.

"You are holding the jade pendant. If anyone dares to stop you, show it to him. If he still stops you, I will kill him. You go and find out the matter. I don't believe that Gao Ming will become what he is in just a few months." In this way, the focus is on the subordinate officials of the East Palace. Remember to return it to me after you use it."

"Yes, Aye, I'll go right away and have dinner at the East Palace." Li Shen took the jade pendant and bowed before exiting the Li Zheng Hall.

After thinking about it, he left the palace and took his men around the corner to the East Palace. When the guards of the East Palace saw that it was Li Shen, they hurried in to report. After a while, Crown Princess Su came out to greet her. Li Shen wondered if the Crown Prince was not in the palace?

"I've seen my sister-in-law. Isn't eldest brother here?" Li Shen saluted Su and asked.

"Hey, let's talk about it when we come in." Mrs. Su sighed, took Li Shen to the living room and sat down, and then the servants served tea.

"Tenth brother, your eldest brother is in the East Palace, but he is having fun with a group of officials and eunuchs in Youchunfang. The guards did not dare to report, so they informed me." Su explained,

"Oh, then I'll go see big brother." Li Shen stood up

"Tenth brother, your eldest brother has changed again. You have listened to the slanders of the villains around you, and you must persuade your eldest brother." Su Shi wiped her tears as she spoke.

"Sister-in-law, please don't cry. Who is bewitching me next to me?"

"A few of the more upright subordinate officials have been kicked out of the East Palace by your eldest brother. Now they are all flatterers. Your eldest brother is young and fun, so they try their best to cater to your eldest brother.

Among them, I think Zhao Jie is the most suspicious. The Taichang Le person was sent in by Zhao Jie. "Su wiped away her tears.

"Did he send it in? Sister-in-law, don't worry, I am here, no one can harm my elder brother." After saying that, Li Shen got up and led the people straight to Youchunfang.

Youchunfang is a place inside the East Palace that was transformed into a place for leisure and entertainment by Li Chengqian. When entering Youchunfang, Li Shen heard the sound of drums and the laughter of people.

When I walked in, I saw a group of Taichangsi musicians playing and singing. Among them, a beautiful figure was dancing gracefully, and a dozen people below were dancing along. Li Chengqian was surrounded in the middle, and the scene was extremely eye-catching.

Seeing outsiders coming in, the sound of drumming stopped immediately, and Li Chengqian was still silent and swaying around in his own environment.

"Brother, I'm so excited. I didn't realize that eldest brother still has such a talent. Why don't I tell Aye and let you go to the Taichang Division to be the chief minister." Li Shen said with a smile on his face but his tone was sarcastic.

Li Chengqian heard the sound and looked over, and saw that Li Shen was a little embarrassed.

"It turns out to be my tenth brother. Why are you free to visit my eldest brother today? Come on, you are 14 years old. You can't always stop drinking. Please have a few drinks with your eldest brother today."

"Drinking is fine, but depending on whether my brother's taste is a bit too low, I guess you can't have any good wine in your house." Li Shen continued to say to Li Chengqian with a smile.

"Oh. My tenth brother said that I have low taste, but I don't know why. These are all people from Taichangsi. And this beauty is named Chengxin, so graceful and pleasing to the heart, hahahaha." Li Chengqian said with a proud smile.

"Brother, you really haven't seen the world, and you still talk about beauty like this. Besides, he is obviously a man.

My brother's taste has changed no matter what, and this musician has no artistic conception at all. How can you compare with my status as a prince? Brother, you are just playing in your little yard. When you go out, don't say it to our group of people. It's really embarrassing. "The smile on Li Shen's face did not diminish.

Li Chengqian wanted to refute Li Shen's words, but he thought that with Li Shen's worth he would be able to find better musicians and dancers, so he had no choice but not to refute.

Brother wants to drink some wine later, I'll ask someone to get some good wine. Let me show you what we, who are called dandies by the people of Chang'an, are drinking. "As he spoke, he handed the waist badge to Shi Shi behind him and asked him to go to Daji Hall to get a bottle of aged wine saved from the first year of brewing.

Then Li Shen brought his servants to Li Chengqian's side. From the beginning to the end, Li Shen did not even look at the people around Li Chengqian. I found a seat and sat down.

"Brother, I heard that you have been lewd and licentious in recent months. You live a luxurious life. You have also been compared to the Second Emperor of Qin." Li Chengqian's face suddenly darkened when he heard this.

But I heard Li Shen continue to say: "I thought you lived such a luxurious life, but today I am so famous that it is better to meet. But that's it, ordinary wealthy businessmen can afford these things in their homes, and those dandies outside can't afford them." You still entertain yourself here all day long when you don’t like something you don’t like. This is what a tasteless servant taught you.”

Li Chengqian glanced at the man in his thirties next to him, then laughed loudly at Li Shen and said, "Haha, how can I be as rich as you, tenth brother? I made a lot of money last year."

"It's all small money. Isn't making money just for a better life? But brother, I didn't give you less money. Why can't you improve your taste?"

It's so embarrassing for you to play with your servants. If my other brothers know this, they won't know how to laugh at you. Why does the eldest brother think that the prince is tired and is ready to be as carefree as me and give up his position to others? I heard that fourth brother is very interested in this position. "Li Shen said mockingly

"His Royal Highness Prince Ji, the prince has a good military character and will definitely be a wise king in the future. It's just that I'm tired from official duties and it's not harmful to take a break to entertain myself." The man Li Chengqian had seen just now came out and said.

Li Shen raised his neck and shouted sternly: "Who are you? How dare you interrupt the conversation between me and the prince? Don't you understand etiquette? Someone come and beat me!"
