Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Li Shen got angry when this matter was mentioned. He had just lost such a big person, and his father looked at him like a fool.

It deeply hurt his young heart.

"But...but what this servant said is the truth,"

Shitou said aggrievedly.

"Truthfully? Why can't I remember it? I have no impression at all."

Li Shen became even angrier. Was he disappointed?

"Your Majesty, when I reported this matter, in addition to the Princess and Madam Wu, two ladies, Chunxiang and Dongmei, were also present."

"Is it?"

Li Shen looked back at Chunxiang and Dongmei standing behind him and asked.

Chunxiang and Dongmei widened their eyes, not knowing what Li Shen was talking about.

"Have you two heard Shitou's report about the nursing home?"

The two thought about it and nodded together:

"Your Majesty, I remember this happening. It should have happened two months ago."

"really have?"

This time it was Li Shen's turn to be dumbfounded. He still held on to a glimmer of hope, but now that hope was shattered.

My memory has really declined to this extent.

“It was really the prince. At that time, the prince was in the garden watching the young master and the young ladies. The princess and Madam Wu were also there.

Oh, right, it was the time when the young master bit Ah San’s ear.”

The young prince they were talking about was Li Shen's eldest son, Li Wei.

According to the Tang system, the son of a prince who inherits the throne will be the heir to the throne, and the other sons will be dukes of counties. Those who are promoted due to favor will be given the title of princes of counties.

Li Wei will inherit Li Shen's title, King Ji, in the future, and will be given the title of heir king before that.

But Li Wei is not even three years old yet, so he cannot be crowned king and can only be called the crown prince.

Li Shen was used to calling him Lao Si, but people in the mansion were used to calling Li Wei Xiao Lang Jun or Er Lang.

Children are usually ranked separately, otherwise Li Shen would not be the tenth prince.

There is generally no distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children. For example, Li Tai, the Prince of Wei, is the fourth prince, but he is the second oldest among legitimate children.

The second prince, Li Kuan, died young, but he still occupied a position. The third prince was Li Ke, the son of Concubine Yang, not a legitimate son.

He was still in front of Li Tai. When Li Tai saw Li Ke, he had to call him "third brother" obediently.

After being reminded by Chunxiang Dongmei, Li Shen suddenly had some impression.

Li Wei is already eight or nine months old. He crawls very fast and can babble.

And he can stand up and walk independently with the help of something.

Maybe he often saw his sister Xixi riding a dog, so he wanted to learn it too. Whenever he had the chance, he would help the dog stand up.

Then he jumped up without leaving the ground, and the meaning was obvious: he wanted to go up.

But the dog was too tall and he couldn't climb up, so he got angry and bit the dog's ear.

Fortunately, this is a purebred dog that understands human nature. If it had met a bad dog, it would have turned around and bit Li Wei.

When Li Shen saw this, he immediately stopped them, firstly to reprimand Li Wei, and secondly to scare Gou Zi.

Because of this, Li Shen slapped Li Wei twice on the buttocks.

Li Shen showed a look of sudden enlightenment on his face.

"Oh, so it was that day, but...but I still don't remember what Shitou told me."

"Your Majesty, you were looking at the young men and women at the time, and you might not have paid attention to what the stone was saying.

That’s why I forgot.”

Chunxiang explained.

"Well, that should be the case. This king will never age prematurely, and his memory will never decline."

After hearing Chunxiang's explanation, Li Shen nodded heavily.

"What are you still standing there for? Go feed the horses."

Seeing Shi Tou still standing there, Li Shen cursed angrily.

Shitou originally thought that he would be fine since he had been cleared of all charges, but he did not expect that he would still be asked to feed the horses. He bowed with grievance and walked out.

"Wait, send the letter to the guards and tell them to set off. Be sure to pay attention to the imperial edict and don't lose it.

Otherwise, they will all die, and I cannot save them."

Shitou turned around and picked up the letter, answered and walked out.

But after Shi Tou went out, Li Shen sat up, looked at the desk and sighed helplessly.

"Alas, there is still a little time left. Hurry and finish writing. My poor right hand is holding something you shouldn't be holding."

After finishing his work, he stood up and walked to the desk to continue copying the sacrificial text. However, he thought he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it.

~~~~~~~

The next day, Li Shen was awakened by the sound of stones while sleeping soundly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Li Shen opened his eyes dazedly, first checked his surroundings, and then looked at the arms and legs on his body.

"What's going on? It's only this hour. What are you yelling about?"

Li Shen rubbed his eyes and cursed, but his voice was not very loud.

"Your Majesty, it is already Si hour, almost noon. Steward Wei from the front yard reported that Chief Steward Wang from the palace has arrived."

Shitou reported back from the outer room.

The outer room is where the maids wait, ready to serve their masters at any time.

"Old Wang is here? Why is he here again? Didn't I just come back yesterday?"

Li Shen was a little impatient.

At this time, Lu Dingniang and others were also awakened.

"Your Majesty, the chief steward must be here to ask His Majesty for something. You should go and see him."

After Lu Dingniang finished speaking, several women put on their clothes.

"Okay, okay, come in."

Li Shen was still a little grumpy after waking up.

Hearing Li Shen's words, Shitou immediately ordered the maid to go in and help Li Shen wash and dress.

Lu Dingniang was looking for clothes for Li Shen.

After washing up, Li Shen put on a cotton coat and went out. Shi Tou outside the door hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, Steward Wei just said that Steward Wang seemed to have something to worry about."

"What could possibly happen? I just came back from the palace yesterday. Don't forget, I am still under house arrest.

This king did not go out to cause trouble."

Li Shen said disdainfully.

When he arrived at the front yard, Li Shen saw Wang De sitting there drinking tea.

"My Lord, what is the matter that Aye asked you to come here for? Didn't I just go to the palace yesterday?"

Li Shen sometimes suspected that his father had retirement syndrome and had nothing to do, so he just found ways to entertain himself.

Wang De put down his teacup, stood up and bowed:

"I have met His Highness Prince Ji."

"Okay, no need to be polite, there are no outsiders here.

Tell me, what did my father want you to do? Do you think my father is picking on me because he has too much free time? "

Wang De was speechless after hearing this. This Prince Ji couldn't be careful with his words. He kept talking nonsense all day long and was unworthy of the name that His Majesty had given him.

His Majesty hopes that you will be careful with your words and actions. He does not ask you to speak or act too seriously. Some things do not need to be said.

He really wanted to tell Li Shen that it’s about being cautious, not about your kidney.

Wang De smiled, looked at Li Shen and said softly:

"Your Highness Prince Ji, have you forgotten what you promised His Majesty yesterday?

Or have you forgotten what His Majesty said?"

"What did I promise Aye? What Aye said?" Li Shen was stunned.

Then he patted the door:

"Oh no, no, I really forgot."
