Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

When Li Shen appeared in front of Wang De, he looked angry.

"This old servant greets His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Li Shen asked in a bad tone after sitting down.

"His Majesty summoned me." Wang De said it simply, thinking to himself, how dare you ask? Don't you know what it is?

Every time I come back, I have to spend some time talking to Prince Ji. Everyone wants to see His Majesty, but Prince Ji doesn't want to see His Majesty.

"This prince..." Li Shen had just opened his mouth when Wang De said, "Your Majesty, there is no way to escape. Just follow me."

Wang De didn't want to say the same thing again.

"Okay. I'll get ready." Li Shen finally compromised, got up and went back to the inner house to prepare.

He also knew that Wang De's next words would be threats, such as punishment, family rules, and property confiscation.

In Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin sat at the top of the hall, with Li Chengqian sitting below him, and below them were the heads of the three provinces and six ministries.

Just now, these people came here collectively because they wanted to meet Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, Songtsen Gampo is the king of the Zamps and should be received by the court. Your Highness Prince Ji's actions are somewhat inappropriate."

Xu Jingzong stood up and bowed. These people also wanted to fight for the ownership of Songtsen Gampo.

"What did Prince Ji say just now?" Li Shimin asked knowing the answer.

The prince had already reported it just now, but Li Shimin still asked questions. Li Chengqian didn't understand the little thoughts of these people, but Li Shimin did. They were just trying to steal the credit.

"Your Majesty, Prince Ji said that he and Songtsen Gampo were personal friends, and that he came here at his invitation. It seems Songtsen Gampo is ill and has been admitted to the medical school at Prince Ji's mansion."

Changsun Wuji stood up and reported.

"What do you think, my dear ministers?" Li Shimin looked at the others. He did not express his own opinion.

"Your Majesty, I think it should be handed over to the court." Yu Zhining stood up and said.

"I second the proposal."

"I also second my opinion."

One after another, officials stood up and agreed.

This is not intentionally targeting Li Shen, it is just a dispute over interests.

"Prince, what do you think we should do?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian who was sitting next to him.

"Replying to Father Ye, I think we should wait until Tenth Brother arrives before making any plans. After all, only Tenth Brother knows the specific details."

Li Chengqian stood up and suggested.

"Well, you make sense." Li Shimin nodded.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ji is requesting an audience outside the palace." At this time, Wang De walked into Ganlu Palace.

"Let him in." Li Shimin said in a deep voice, with some unhappiness in his tone. This rebellious son had delayed him for so long.

Soon Li Shen came in, came to the front and bowed deeply to his father:

"Greetings, Aye. I haven't seen you for a few months, and you are still as charming as ever. May you live a long and healthy life."

"Hmph, you, Prince Ji, are really hard to please." Li Shimin snorted and didn't buy Li Shen's trick at all.

"Father, please forgive me. I have come all this way, and I must return to bathe and change clothes before I come to see you. Otherwise, I will be disrespectful to you by failing to behave properly in front of you."

Li Shen had already found an excuse to deal with his unreliable father.

"Hmph!" Li Shimin snorted. Li Shen's excuse was sufficient, but you have been gone for more than an hour, isn't that a bit too long?

"Father, I wonder what instructions Zhaoer has for you." Li Shen asked.

Logically, he should go to the palace to pay homage to the emperor and visit the queen and his mother at the same time.

I didn't expect that they would come here, and with so many ministers.

"Tell me, what's the matter with the Tibetan Zamp?" Li Shimin asked directly.

"Aye, this is a very simple matter. Songtsen Gampo went to Xizhou to seek medical advice and medicine from Er. As a result, he and Er hit it off right away and felt that they had met too late.

So I invited him to visit Chang'an City and treat his injuries."

Li Shen recounted the entire incident in a lighthearted manner.

However, everyone present did not believe it in their hearts, and they acted as if they had known each other for a long time. What a big tone.

There are few people in this world who can feel like old friends with you at first sight.

"Is it really like that?" Li Shimin didn't quite believe it. Even if it was to treat his injuries, the Zamp would not follow him to the capital. Isn't this like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?

"Father, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to ask." Li Shen patted his chest and promised.

"Then I wonder how His Royal Highness Prince Ji will treat the Tibetan king?"

Changsun Wuji stood up and asked on behalf of Li Shimin.

"Of course we should treat each other with courtesy. The Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. We cannot lose face for the imperial court, and even more so, we cannot lose face for the royal family.

This king has already made the necessary arrangements. First, Songtsen Gampo will be admitted to the medical school to receive treatment for his injuries. Once he is out of danger, he will be placed in a nursing home to slowly recuperate."

Li Shen had already thought of how to settle Songtsen Gampo.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, why don't you settle Songtsen Gampo in Chang'an City?" Yu Zhining asked.

"It's just to make it easier for Songtsen Gampo to heal his injuries. Besides, he brought 3,000 Tibetan soldiers with him. Do you think it's appropriate to let them into the city?

But if these 3,000 people are not allowed to enter the city, do you think Songtsen Gampo would be willing to enter the city?

Do you intend to forcibly bring Songtsen Gampo into the city and imprison him?"

Li Shen looked at Yu Zhining and questioned.

"He is the fish and I am the knife. I think there is nothing wrong with this." Yu Zhining said domineeringly.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, I wonder how you think you should deal with the unsophisticated Zamp." Changsun Wuji asked.

The prince had just asked them the same question at Shili Pavilion, but they didn't answer.

"Of course I will treat him well." Li Shen replied.

"But what if Songtsen Gampo wants to leave after his injury heals?" Changsun Wuji asked calmly. Everyone looked at Li Shen, waiting for his answer.

They thought that with Li Shen's character, he would definitely keep Songtsen Gampo in Chang'an City.

But Li Shen smiled slightly:

"Of course I let him go."

"what?"

"Let him go?"

"Isn't this a bit bad? Isn't this like letting a tiger return to the mountain?"

To everyone's surprise, Li Shen's answer was actually different from what they imagined.

If Zanganbu left, what's the point of bringing him back?

"Of course we must let him go. I will not stop him anyway. I have sworn an oath that I will never stop Songtsen Gampo from leaving. Let him come and go as he pleases."

Li Shen smiled and replied, "It's a nice thought for them to want me to be the bad guy. I'm not a treacherous person."

"Well... Prince Ji is taking you down. How could you agree to this? If we let Songtsen Gampo go, wouldn't that be like letting a tiger return to the mountains?"

Even Ma Zhou couldn't help but ask.

"That doesn't matter at all. I have already sworn an oath, and it is an oath sworn by my royal ancestors. If you want to keep Songtsen Gampo, you can find a way on your own. I will never break my oath."

Li Shen had a playful expression on his face. But just as he finished speaking, he heard an angry shout from above:

"What? You dare to swear by our ancestors? You rebellious son."

(I think I’ve had a cold recently, and my head is feeling dizzy. I feel like the writing is a little bad, and I can’t think of the plot.

I guess it's related to the mosquito bite. Today I swatted a big mosquito to death. It was black and had a belly full of blood.)
