Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Not long after, the news spread that King Ji was going to marry the princess. In fact, many people have been thinking about Li Shen for a long time, including nobles from aristocratic families who want to marry their daughters to Li Shen and become their princess.

It's just that this matter requires Li Shimin and Concubine Wei to nod. The Wei family has approached Concubine Wei more than once, but Concubine Wei has always rejected Li Shen as a low-level person.

But this time the news came out that Li Shimin already had a candidate, and the third step was now underway. The wedding etiquette of the Tang Dynasty is the so-called "six rites": accepting gifts, asking for names, accepting gifts, accepting invitations, asking for dates, and welcoming in person.

Nacai: After the man and the woman agree to get married, the man needs to send a matchmaker to bring a gift, usually a goose, and then give it to the woman.

Name asking: The man asks the matchmaker to go to the woman’s home to ask her for her name and date of birth.

Najib: It means saying hello to the birth date, making calculations, informing the woman of the good omen to reassure her, and then agreeing on a time for engagement and gift giving.

Nazheng: It means giving a betrothal gift.

Request period: Just set the date

Welcoming the bride: to marry someone and bring them home

Li Shimin has already carried out the process to Najib, and has already asked people to calculate birth dates. Li Shen was puzzled at first after hearing this. He didn't ask about his birth date, but then he called himself stupid. Li Shimin is his father, and his mother is still in the harem. How could he not know?

Li Shen also knew that the established facts could not be changed, so he just let it go. He would be a child bride for a few years at most, and at least eighteen or nineteen years old.

---------------------

Today's Ministry of War is the same as usual, just with one more topic. Lu Shuang, the military commander, is getting married to the royal family, and the person he is getting married to is actually the most popular Prince Ji.

Known as the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, Lu Shuang is just a lieutenant. There have been several officials in his family before, but their family fortunes fell into decline.

Many people know about Li Shimin and the Zheng family from Lu Shuang. Many people believe that if Li Shimin hadn't admitted his mistake at that time, Lu Shuang might not have been able to become the Langzhong.

"Congratulations, Mr. Lu. I heard that your little lady is going to marry Prince Ji as his concubine. It's really gratifying. You don't know how many people outside are eyeing the position of the concubine of Prince Ji's palace. I didn't expect that it would fall on you." Go ahead, Brother Lu will have to take care of his younger brother from now on.

If there is any way to get rich, don’t forget about me, little brother. "The speaker was Shi Junde, who was also a doctor in the Ministry of War with Lu Shuang, and he was also from a small family.

"Shi Gong was joking. Your Majesty just took the horoscope and it hasn't been finalized yet. And I also want to ask His Highness Prince Ji what he meant." Lu Shuang is just an ordinary scholar. He has the same thoughts as ordinary people. If he can climb up to King Ji, he will naturally be happy.

"Brother Lu, doesn't taking the horoscope mean that His Majesty is interested? And according to etiquette, the princess of the palace is appointed by His Majesty.

His Highness Prince Ji could only listen to this. It was Prince Ji who had the final say on the concubines and concubines in the future. When your little lady enters the palace and becomes the princess, she will manage the entire palace.

I heard people say that there is a treasury in the palace, which is bigger than the one in the Ministry of Revenue. What is inside is a mountain of gold and silver, and the palace’s copper coins are never lost. "Shi Junde said with joy.

"No matter what we discuss, isn't it consistent?" Lu Shuang asked curiously

"Brother Lu, what you are saying is that we are consistent. The money earned by the palace every month is brought into the treasury one by one. Who can count?

I heard that the money in Prince Ji's Mansion is measured in pounds. And there is a treasure house inside, which contains rare treasures, famous people's calligraphy and paintings collected by King Ji, each of which is priceless.

If your little lady enters the palace and leaks something, it will be enough for your salary for decades," Shi Junde said with envy.

"Shi Gong, of course my daughter belongs to the palace after she goes to the palace. How can she secretly give money to her mother's family? I don't allow you to do this. This is unruly." Lu Shuang said to Shi Junde sternly.

"Yes, yes. I made a mistake. But if your little lady gives Prince Ji some advice and takes you on any business, then you will be prosperous.

Did you know that Princess Changle, who was the first to cooperate with King Ji, only gave out a mere 50 strings. In seven or eight years, the dividends were no less than [-] yuan. Especially in recent years, King Ji has expanded his business to the northern grasslands and Tubo. It is estimated that Changsun Mansion will receive another hundred thousand yuan this year. "Shi Junde analyzed it for Lu Shuang.

"Shi Gong, you and I are both officials of the imperial court, and money is just a fleeting thing. All we have to do is serve the imperial court. As for my daughter, I just hope that she can find a husband and be content with a happy life in the future." Lu Shuang said seriously. Said to Shi Junde

Shi Junde kept saying yes, but in his heart he despised Lu Shuang's hypocrisy. If he had such an opportunity, he would definitely speak more righteously than Lu Shuang.

Li Shimin was very fast. Half a month later, when Li Shen's confinement period expired, Li Shimin informed Li Shen that the horoscopes had been completed. Concubine Wei Gui took care of the later tasks of setting the betrothal gift and the wedding date, so Li Shen didn't have to worry about it.

Li Shen also wanted to be free, and Li Shen, who had nothing to do, began to think about things from his past life. I have watched short videos of novels, TV series, and novels from my past life. As a time traveler, I have to leave something behind.

After much deliberation, Li Shen thought of a boat and of going to sea to find the American continent. Isn’t this something that every time-travel novel must do? It's a pity that there is no system. Otherwise, the production of high-yielding crops such as corn and potatoes will solve the food problem.

Li Shen recruited Wang Hongfu and asked him to find someone to build a dock at the confluence of the Ba River and Chan River in the east of the city. That place is close to Chang'an and flows into the Wei River and leads directly to the Yellow River.

Then Li Shen began to draw drawings. In his previous life, Li Shen had watched a video about the history of the development of ships in the world. In the early days, China was very good, but after the [-]th century, it was overtaken by Europe.

The drawings drawn by Li Shen are of the clippers, a warship at the peak of sailing, built by the United States in the [-]th century. He played a key role in the Opium War against China. The speed of the clipper ship was twice as fast as other ships. The British used this ship to transport opium to China.

Fortunately, Li Shen's memory was very clear due to time travel, so he drew the structure of the ship in the show he had watched.

All that's left is to build the model, and Li Shen has already sent people to the seaside cities to find craftsmen who can build ships. He thought it could be improved by combining it with Chinese ships. Europeans can learn from China's technological improvements, and so can we.

So the news that Li Shen wanted to build a ship spread among the upper levels, and it was also reported that Li Shen spent a lot of time and money building a shipyard in order to travel around.

I am planning to build a luxurious cruise ship and say that I have been searching for beauties all over the world. Next are various impeachment memorials.

Li Shimin couldn't let Wang De call Li Shen to explain in court. As a result, Li Shen did not come, but gave Wang De a piece of paper. Wang De read the first sentence: I have money and I am willing.

This made many ministers very angry. They all said that as a prince, Li Shen should contribute to the court. He should not waste money and people for his own selfish desires, but should use money to help the people and the court.

As a result, Wang De read out the second sentence: I will donate five times as much as you want. This sentence made the ministers speechless.

And Li Shen also had a third sentence: I can't explain it to you in person because I have no choice but to do so because I was seriously injured. I went to the treasury yesterday because I had too much money and the mountain of money collapsed and injured me when I opened the door.

I am now worried about how to squander my family property all day long. I am worried all day long that I will not be able to spend all the money before my death. What I miss most now is the quiet days in the palace, peaceful, happy and carefree, without having to worry about spending money. The greatest pain in life is when someone dies and money is not spent.
