Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Li Shen didn't care at all when he heard Li Shimin's scolding. He looked at his father seriously and replied:

"Aye, what's wrong with this?

Life is short, just as plants and trees wither in autumn. Ten years are spent as a child, and ten years are spent as an old and weak, minus the time spent sleeping at night.

People can only live happily for twenty to thirty years in their lifetime.

After spending half of your life fighting for power and profit, in the end, it's just a pile of bones. A hundred years later, it will just return to dust.

Look at the State of Zhao... Um... Duke Zheng, who was fair and honest throughout his life, was known as a minister who gave direct advice.

But his life was so boring that in the end he didn't even have a jade to put in his mouth. How miserable.

Don't be like Duke Wei, you should enjoy your life."

What Li Shen said really came from his heart. He had been a slave for so long in his previous life that even if he had a small business of his own, he still had to get up early and go to bed late.

It's more tiring than working as an ox or a horse.

With great difficulty, he was born into an imperial family in this life. Now he is wealthy, surrounded by beautiful women, and has two children.

No need to worry about making a living anymore.

Unless he is crazy, he would not enjoy such a good life but insist on making trouble for himself.

As one of the top nobles in the Tang Dynasty, he is financially free and can do whatever he wants and not do whatever he doesn't want.

He already has the ability to say no.

He dared to fool the emperor and did not take deceiving the emperor seriously. What else could he not do?

Such a life is so good, and I’m not really sick in the head.

Unexpectedly, Li Shen's reflections on life silenced Li Shimin.

Li Shimin slowly stood up, walked to the window, opened it and looked at the scenery outside.

At some point, snowflakes started falling outside. This was the first snow in Chang'an City this year, and it was a little later than last year.

Li Shimin just stood there quietly without saying a word.

Concubine Wei glared at her son. Li Shen smiled awkwardly and wanted to get the teapot to pour tea.

But Concubine Wei reached out and hit him hard.

Li Shen was helpless as well, he knew his mother was blaming him for making his father depressed.

But what I said was the truth, so I can’t blame myself.

When Empress Changsun saw the actions of the mother and daughter, a smile appeared on her face and she tapped Li Shen's head with her hand.

"You, I really want to know what's in your head?

Why do your thoughts always differ from those of ordinary people?

Shen'er, do you know how many people want to become officials in the court and spend half their lives preparing for this?

You, on the other hand, talk about enjoyment so confidently.

Do you know what Kaifu Yitong Sansi represents? "

Li Shen certainly knew what the title of Kaifu Yitong Sansi meant. Although he was not in the court, he never missed talking about current affairs every ten days.

Of course, they only picked interesting things to talk about. If there was nothing interesting, Li Shen would fall asleep after listening.

The so-called opening of a government office means setting up an office in a designated location, similar to setting up a government office.

Kaifu Yitong Sansi is one of the highest ranks of civil servants, from the first rank, higher than the three dukes.

Of course, it is just a high rank but has no real power. Kaifu Yitong Sansi is just a title of an official.

However, even officials have the right to attend court meetings.

As far as Li Shen knows, those who hold this title now are old ministers, mostly retired ones.

Giving them this title allows them to continue to enjoy their salaries and also allows them to enter the palace to discuss matters when necessary.

But Li Shen did not want to enter the palace to discuss matters:

"Mother, look at me, I have lost weight. Doctor Sun said that I am a little weak and need to rest.

Besides, my son can’t get up to go to court.”

Li Shen looked at Empress Changsun pitifully. It was past three in the morning. Who could get up? Did she really think of herself as a beast of burden?

Li Shen's look made Empress Changsun unable to help but tap Li Shen's forehead twice.

She was also thinking of letting Li Shen assist the prince.

If Li Chengqian used the ingenious ideas that Li Shen just mentioned, he would become famous.

At this time, Concubine Wei nodded at Li Shen and looked towards the window, meaning that she wanted Li Shen to go over and see what was going on.

Li Shen wanted to refuse, but when he saw his mother picking up the small board used to stir the tea, Li Shen had no choice but to walk over.

"Um....Aye, what's on your mind?"

Coming to Li Shimin's side, Li Shen asked tentatively.

"Old Ten, look at the outside world, it's all owned by my Li family, just as you said, why do people in the world want to fight for power and profit?

I am rich and powerful, so why can't I enjoy life like you?"

"This..." Li Shen was a little confused and didn't know what his father meant.

Did what I just said have such a strong impact?

"Aye, everyone in the world actually has something they want, but everyone wants something different.

But it’s nothing more than fame and fortune.”

Li Shen didn't know how to comfort Li Shimin and could only say a few random words.

After hearing this, Li Shimin still looked out the window. The cold wind blew in, and it was a little chilly, but Li Shimin's eyes seemed to be able to see the world outside the palace.

It’s over. I’ve made my dad depressed. What should I do?

Li Shen stood by and thought about countermeasures.

After a long time, Li Shimin reached out and closed the window.

"Okay, I just have some feelings. If you think what you said is feasible, then everything will be done according to your words.

But let me be clear in advance, if it backfires, I will never let it off easily.

You must remember the name I gave you, and be careful before you act. This also concerns your mother's reputation, do you remember?"

"Don't worry, Aye. If things go wrong, I will take all the blame on myself. It has nothing to do with Aye's mother.

Everything is borne by the son.”

Li Shen said solemnly.

For Li Shen, it is almost certain, these are all leftovers from later generations.

In ancient times, people called it improving one's reputation, and in later generations, people called it brushing one's reputation. As for positive energy, donating is the simplest way to do it.

"What I want is for things to be done, not for you to bear the blame. Do you understand?"

Li Shimin returned to his seat and sat down.

"Yes, son, I understand." Li Shen hurriedly saluted.

"That's good, then you can go back.

When things are settled, come to the palace and tell me."

"Yes, I'll take my leave."

Li Shen saluted.

"My Lady, you haven't seen him for a while. Go and see him off."

Li Shimin said something to Concubine Wei, wanting to let the mother and son talk.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After paying her respects, Concubine Wei followed Li Shen out.

After watching the mother and son leave, Empress Changsun came behind Li Shimin, pressed his shoulders, and asked softly:

"Erlang, are you worried that Shen'er's situation is not safe?"

(This position is quite high, but it has no real power.

The Three Officials are the Three Dukes and Three Teachers. The Three Teachers are Grand Tutor, Grand Preceptor and Grand Protector; the Three Dukes are Grand Commandant, Minister of Civil Affairs and Minister of Works.

Kaifu Yitong Sansi was a civil official. Although Kaifu and Tejin did not have official duties, they were given salaries and could attend court meetings.

That’s probably it)
